Until such account or accounts are so specified, the funds still held by the Paying Agent shall bear interest at the rate of interest quoted by the Paying Agent for deposits with it on an overnight basis, to the extent that the Paying Agent is reasonably able to reinvest such funds.

(c) Any Holder may elect to receive payment of principal and interest with respect to the Notes in [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] by causing DTC, through the relevant DTC participant, to notify the Paying Agent by the time specified below of (i) such Holder’s election to receive all or a portion of such payment in [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] and (ii) wire transfer instructions to a [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] account. Such election in respect of any payment shall be made by the Holder at the time and in the manner required by the DTC procedures applicable from time to time and shall, in accordance with such procedures, be irrevocable.

Any payments under this subsection (1)(c) in [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] shall be made by wire transfer of same day funds to [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] accounts designated by DTC.

(d) All payments made by or on behalf of the Issuer to, or to the order of, the Registered Holder at the close of business on the relevant Record Date shall discharge the liability of the Issuer under the Notes to the extent of the sums so paid.

(2) Record Date. The record date (the “Record Date”) for purposes of payments (as described in subsection (1) above) of principal and interest shall be, in respect of each such payment, the tenth New York Business Day preceding the relevant payment date.

(3) Business Days. If any due date for payment of principal or interest in [INSERT DESIGNATED CURRENCY] in respect of any Note, to or to the order of the Registered Holder is not a [INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION] Business Day, such payment will not be made until the next following [INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION] Business Day, and no further interest shall be paid in respect of the delay in such payment. If any date for payment of principal or interest in U.S. dollars in respect of any Note to or to the order of the Registered Holder is not a [INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION] Business Day or not a New York Business Day, such payment will not be made until the next day which is both a [INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION] Business Day and a New York Business Day, and no

further interest shall be paid in respect of the delay in such payment. “New York Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York. “[INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION] Business Day” means any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which credit institutions are open for business in [INSERT RELEVANT LOCATION]. “Frankfurt Business Day” means any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which credit institutions are open for business in Frankfurt am Main.

§ 6
Taxation

All payments by the Issuer in respect of the Notes shall be made without deduction or withholding of taxes or other duties, unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. In the event of such deduction or withholding, the Issuer shall not be required to pay any additional amounts in respect of the Notes.

§ 7
Termination for Default

Any Holder may, through DTC, declare its Notes due and demand repayment thereof at their principal amount plus interest accrued to the date of repayment if the Issuer shall fail to pay any amount payable hereunder within 30 days from the relevant due date. The right to declare Notes due shall cease if the Issuer has made payment to or to the order of the Registered Holder before the Holder has exercised such right. Any notice declaring Notes due shall be made by means of a written notice to be delivered by hand or registered mail to the Issuer together with proof that such Holder at the time of such notice is a Holder of the relevant Notes by means of a certificate of the Holder’s Custodian pursuant to § 11(3)(a).

(2) Change of Agents and their Specified Offices.

is (are) located. The Issuer shall give notice of any change in the Agents or their Specified Offices by publication in accordance with § 10.

§ 9
Further Issues

The Issuer reserves the right, from time to time without the consent of the Holders, to issue additional notes, on terms identical in all respects to those set forth herein (except as to the date from which interest shall accrue), so that such additional notes shall be consolidated with, form a single issue with and increase the aggregate principal amount of, the Notes. The term “Notes” shall, in the event of such increase, also include such additional notes.

§ 10
Notices

All notices regarding the Notes shall be published (a) in the electronic Federal Gazette (elektronischer Bundesanzeiger) and, if legally required, in the form of media determined by law in addition thereto, and (b) also in a leading daily newspaper printed in the English language and of general circulation in New York City (expected to be The Wall Street Journal).

Schedule 4

PROVISIONS APPLICABLE BY REASON OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE NOTES
IN THE UNITED STATES

Because it is expected that a portion of the Notes may be distributed in the United States, the Issuer and the Managers agree as follows:

1. Representations and Warranties. The Issuer represents and warrants to the Managers as of the date hereof that:

(a)

the Registration Statement has been declared effective, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of the Issuer, threatened by the Commission;

(b)

the Disclosure Documents comply, and, as amended or supplemented, if applicable, will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder;

(c)

(i) each part of the Registration Statement, when such part became effective, did not contain, and each such part, as amended or supplemented, does not and will not contain, as of the applicable effective date or filing date, as the case may be, any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the Pricing Prospectus, when considered together with the Final Term Sheet (as defined in § 3(b) of this Schedule), did not, as of the Relevant Time (as defined in § 3(4) of this Agreement), contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (iii) the Prospectus will not, as of the date of the Pricing Supplement, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (iv) the Prospectus will not, as of the Closing Date, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (v) any issuer free writing prospectus relating to the Notes will not, as of its issue date and through the Closing Date, include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, and will not, when considered together with the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, as of the date it is issued or filed pursuant to Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except that the foregoing representations and warranties shall not apply to statements or omissions in the Disclosure Documents made in reliance upon and in conformity with Manager Information (as defined in §8(2) of this Agreement) furnished to the Issuer in writing by a Manager directly or through the Lead Manager(s) expressly for use therein; and

(d)

the use of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes does not, and will not, conflict with or infringe the KfW Law, the By-Laws (Satzung) of the Issuer or any of its other obligations or any rule of law (including, without limitation, any statute, regulation, rule, decree or order) to which it is subject with respect to such particular use.

2. Agreements of the Issuer. The Issuer agrees as follows:

(a)

if not filed as of the date hereof, to file the Pricing Supplement with the Commission within the time periods specified by Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act;

(b)

to furnish, upon the reasonable request of the Lead Manager(s), without charge, to the Lead Manager(s) and to U.S. counsel for the Managers, a conformed copy of the Registration Statement (as originally filed) and each amendment thereto, in each case without exhibits and in each case to the extent applicable to the Notes, and, during the period mentioned in paragraph (e) below, to each Manager as many copies of the Prospectus (including all amendments and supplements thereto) as the Lead Manager(s) may reasonably request;

(c)

before filing any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus applicable to the Notes, whether before or after the time the Registration Statement becomes effective, to furnish to U.S. counsel for the Managers a copy of the proposed amendment or supplement for review and not to file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which the U.S. counsel for the Managers promptly and reasonably objects;

(d)

to advise the Lead Manager(s) promptly, and to confirm such advice in writing (i) as to when any amendment to the Registration Statement applicable to the Notes shall have become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus for any additional information, in each case applicable to the Notes, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose (in each case to the extent applicable to the Notes) or of any stop order suspending or preventing the use of the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus or any issuer free writing prospectus relating to the Notes and (iv) of the receipt by the Issuer of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Notes for offer and sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and to use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or notification and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof;

(e)

if, during such period of time within six months after the first date of the public offering of the Notes, as in the opinion of U.S. counsel for the Managers, a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by any Manager or dealer, and any event shall occur as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus to comply with law, forthwith to notify the Lead Manager(s) and upon request of the Manager(s) to prepare and furnish, at their own expense, to the Lead Manager(s) and to the dealers (whose

names and addresses the Lead Managers will furnish to the Issuer) to which Notes may have been sold by any Manager, such amendments or supplements to the Prospectus as may be necessary so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus is delivered to a purchaser, be misleading or so that the Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, will comply with law; and in case any Manager is required to deliver the Prospectus in connection with sales of any Notes at any time six months or more after the date of the Prospectus, upon request of the Lead Manager(s) but at the expense of such Manager, to prepare and furnish to such Manager an amended or supplemented Prospectus complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(f)

to make generally available to holders of the Notes and to the Lead Manager(s) as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide the benefits contemplated by, the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Securities Act Regulations, and

(g)

to endeavor to qualify the Notes for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions, if and to the extent KfW and the Lead Manager(s) have so agreed, and to continue such qualification so long as reasonably necessary for the distribution of the Notes and to pay all fees and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel to the Managers) reasonably incurred in connection with such qualification and in connection with the determination of the eligibility of the Notes for investment under the laws of such jurisdictions as agreed between KfW and the Lead Manager(s); provided, however, that the Issuer shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation or a dealer in securities or to subject itself to taxation or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.

3. Free Writing Prospectuses.

(a)

The Issuer shall not, subject to § 1(c)(v) and § 3(b) of this Schedule, make any offer relating to Notes that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations), without the prior consent of the Lead Manager(s); and the Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations with respect to any such free writing prospectus;

(b)

Subject to the last sentence of this § 3(b), the Issuer shall prepare a final term sheet (the “Final Term Sheet”), containing a summary of the terms of the Notes, which shall be in a form approved by the Lead Managers and shall reflect the terms agreed with the Lead Managers. The Issuer shall file the Final Term Sheet with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act Regulations within the time period prescribed by such Rule. These provisions shall not apply if the Lead Manager(s) shall have advised the Issuer on behalf of the Managers, prior to pricing of the Notes, that term sheet(s) will not be used in connection with the sale of the Notes.

4. Agreements of the Managers. Each Manager shall not make any offer relating to the Notes that would constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations) required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations, without the prior consent of the Issuer; provided, however,

that, unless the Managers have advised the Issuer pursuant to § 3(b) of this Schedule that term sheet(s) are not to be used in connection with the sale of the Notes, each Manager may, in its discretion, distribute one or more term sheets relating to the Notes containing customary information that is consistent, in all material respects, with the Final Term Sheet prepared and filed by the Issuer pursuant to § 3(b) of this Schedule. Any free writing prospectus (including, without limitation, any term sheet) permitted by the preceding sentence (i) shall not, as of its issue date and through the Closing Date, include any information that conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, and (ii) shall not, when considered together with the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no Manager shall make any representation and warranty to the Issuer with respect to statements in or omissions from any such free writing prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with any (y) “issuer information” (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act Regulations) prepared by the Issuer or (z) information furnished to any Manager in writing by the Issuer for use in such free writing prospectus.

5. Indemnification. The Issuer agrees to indemnify each Manager and its directors, officers and employees and each person, if any, who controls any Manager within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any affiliate of such Manager, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities arising out of or in connection with the distribution of the Notes in the United States (including without limitation the legal fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding or claim asserted) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Disclosure Document (as defined in §3(2) of this Agreement and which term, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the other documents specified in such §3(2)), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon Manager Information (as defined in §8(2) of this Agreement) furnished to the Issuer in writing by such Manager directly or through the Lead Manager(s) expressly for use therein .

Each Manager agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify the Issuer, its directors (or persons performing similar functions), officers and employees and other persons who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and any affiliate of the Issuer, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer to such Manager, but only with reference to Manager Information (as defined in §8(2) of this Agreement) furnished to the Issuer by such Manager in writing directly or through the Lead Manager(s) expressly for use in the Disclosure Documents.

If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted in the United States against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the

Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time after receiving such request to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Managers shall be designated in writing by the Documentation Manager, on behalf of the Lead Manager(s), and any such separate firm for the Issuer or its directors or officers who sign the Registration Statement and such control persons of the Issuer shall be designated in writing by the Issuer. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding in which it has elected to participate effected without its written consent, but if such a suit is settled with such consent or if any proceeding in which the Indemnifying Person, after having received notice thereof, shall have elected not to participate is settled with or without such consent or if there be a final judgement for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an Indemnifying Person to reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and (ii) such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

If, as a result of the distribution of the Notes in the United States and notwithstanding § 16(1) of this Agreement, an Indemnified Person cannot avail itself of the indemnification provided for in this § 5 in whole or in part, then each Indemnifying Person shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in

losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer on the one hand and the Managers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Managers. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer, on the one hand, or the Managers, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, no Manager shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Notes subscribed by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Manager has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Managers’ obligations in this subsection to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

The indemnity agreements contained in this § 5 are in addition to any liability which the Indemnifying Persons may otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons referred to above.

The indemnity provisions contained in this § 5 and the representations and warranties of the Issuer contained herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Manager or any person controlling any Manager or by or on behalf of the Issuer, its officers or directors (or persons performing similar functions) or any person controlling the Issuer or signing the Registration Statement and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Notes.

6. Sale in the United States. Each Manager agrees to notify Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, as U.S. counsel to the Managers, of the U.S. Sales Amount applicable to it seven calendar days after the Closing Date. The Managers agree to cause Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP to promptly thereafter report the aggregate U.S. Sales Amounts applicable to the Managers to Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, as U.S. counsel to the Issuer. For purposes of the foregoing, the U.S. Sales Amount applicable to a Manager shall mean the total aggregate principal amount of Notes initially sold in the United States by such Manager as part of its initial allotment.

Nothing in this Schedule 4 shall constitute a submission by the Issuer or any Manager to the jurisdiction of any court of or in the United States.

7. Stabilization

In connection with this offering of notes, the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it may purchase and sell the Notes in the open market. These transactions may include short

sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it of a greater number of the Notes than they are required to purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Notes while the offering is in progress.

The Stabilization Manager may also impose a penalty bid, which occurs when a particular Manager repays to the Stabilization Manager a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it has repurchased Notes sold by or for the account of such Manager in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

These activities by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the notes. As a result, the price of the Notes may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the Stabilization Manager or any person acting for it at any time. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

8. Interpretation

Notwithstanding that this Schedule shall be governed by and construed in accordance with German law, any terms used in this Schedule reflecting terms used in U.S. federal securities laws shall be interpreted according to the meanings attributed to them in such laws.
