WHEREAS, the parties hereto wish to amend the terms of the Distribution Agreement as set forth in this amendment (“Amendment No. 1”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Amendment to the Terms of the Distribution Agreement.
(a) Definitions. All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Distribution Agreement.
(b) Modifications to the Distribution Agreement.

“Bank Notes may be outstanding at any one time in an aggregate maximum principal amount equal to US$30,000,000,000, inclusive of any notes outstanding which have been issued prior to the date of this Offering Circular by the Bank or entities that have been acquired by the Bank.”
ii. The first sentence of Section 2(a)(i) of the Distribution Agreement is replaced in its entirety with the following:
“The Issuing Bank has caused to be prepared an offering circular, dated May 22, 2015, to be used by the Dealers in connection with the Dealers’ solicitation of purchasers of or offering of the Bank Notes.”
iii. The first sentence of Section 2(a)(iii) of the Distribution Agreement is replaced in its entirety with the following:
“The Issuing Bank has all corporate power and authority necessary to execute, deliver and perform, and it has duly authorized, executed and delivered, this Agreement, the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement dated as of January 16, 2014 (as amended on May 22, 2015 and from time to time thereafter, the “Agency Agreement”), between the Issuing Bank and PNC Bank, National Association, as issuing and paying agent, and the Interest Calculation Agreement dated as of January 16, 2014 (as amended on May 22, 2015 and from time to time thereafter, the “Interest Calculation Agreement”), between the Issuing Bank and PNC Bank, National Association, as the interest calculation agent (in such capacity, the “Calculation Agent,” which term shall include any successor thereto).”
(c) Interpretation. Upon the execution and delivery of this Amendment No. 1, the Distribution Agreement shall be modified and amended in accordance with this Amendment No. 1, and all the terms and conditions of both shall be read together as though they constitute one instrument, except that, in case of conflict, the provisions of this Amendment No. 1 will control. For the avoidance of doubt, references in the Distribution Agreement to this “Agreement” shall refer to the Distribution Agreement, as amended by this Amendment No. 1.
(d) Ratification. The Distribution Agreement, as modified and amended by this Amendment No. 1, is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall bind each party hereto.
