(h) Redemptions. The Corporation may, at its option, redeem the Notes, with the prior approval of the Superintendent, in accordance with the provisions of Article 3 of the Principal Indenture and on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the applicable Holder, in whole, but not in part, on May 25, 2021 and thereafter on each interest payment date at a redemption price equal to par, together with accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the date of redemption.

4.2 Form of Notes

The Notes will be issuable as registered Notes initially in the form of a single Book-Entry Security substantially in the form as set out in Article 5 deposited with The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as the common depository for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, for their respective Participants and registered in the name of a nominee (which on the date of issue of the Notes will be The Bank of New York Depository (Nominees) Limited) for such common depository.

4.3 Execution and Delivery of Book Entry Securities.

(a) Registrations of ownership and transfer of the Notes will be made only through the Book-Entry System and its Participants in accordance with the rules and procedures of Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and its direct and indirect Participants. For greater certainty, notwithstanding Sections 2.9.3 and 2.15 of the Principal Indenture, the rights of holders of any beneficial interest in the Notes, including rights to payments, distributions and notices, under the Book-Entry System will be governed by this Section 4.3 of this First Supplemental Indenture.

(b) It is expressly acknowledged that any such registrations of ownership and transfers of such Notes, or interests of Participants therein, will be made by Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg only through the Book-Entry System in accordance with Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg’s policies and procedures.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 2.15.3 of the Principal Indenture, if the Book-Entry System is closed for business for a continuous period of 14 calendar days (other than by reason of legal holidays) or announces an intention permanently to cease business:

(i) the Trustee shall notify Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg and shall request Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to notify the Participants of the availability of Definitive Securities;

(ii) the Trustee shall request the Registrar to request Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to deliver the Book-Entry Securities to the Registrar and the Registrar shall thereupon reduce the holdings of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg on the Note Register to nil in respect of the Notes represented by the Book-Entry Securities;

(iii) the Corporation shall issue or cause to be issued, in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, in exchange for the Book-Entry Securities, Definitive Securities in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Book-Entry Securities registered in the names of the Participants as advised by Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg in accordance with their proportionate interest in the Book-Entry Securities as recorded in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg; and

16

(iv) after such replacement of the Book-Entry Securities with Definitive Securities, all payments in respect of Definitive Securities shall be made to the Holders thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Definitive Securities and the provisions of the Indenture and in all other respects such holders shall be the Holders thereof for all purposes hereunder.

(d) All reasonable expenses of the Trustee, the Agents and Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg relating to Section 4.3 of this First Supplemental Indenture shall be paid by the Corporation.

(e) It is hereby acknowledged that in making the determination as to the percentage interest of a Participant in a Book-Entry Security, the Trustee and each Agent, if applicable, shall be entitled to rely solely upon the records therefor maintained by either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and confirmed in writing to the Trustee by either Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be.

(f) None of the Corporation, the Trustee or any Agent shall be responsible for any actions, inactions or omissions on the part of either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or the Participants under the Indenture or under any agreements, service rules or procedures entered into between either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg and each Participant nor shall it be liable to Holders or beneficial holders of Notes for any such actions, inactions or omissions by either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or the Participants which adversely affect a Person’s beneficial interest in Notes.

(g) Notes represented by a Book-Entry Security are exchangeable and transferable only in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions hereof and the rules and operating procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg.

(h) Exchanges may be made upon presentation of the Book-Entry Security at the office of the Registrar at Vertigo Building, Polaris, 0-0 xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, X-0000, Xxxxxxxxxx by the Holder of it on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are open for general business in Luxembourg. The aggregate nominal amount of Definitive Securities issued upon an exchange of a Book-Entry Security will be equal to the aggregate nominal amount of such Book-Entry Security. On an exchange in whole of a Book-Entry Security, such Book-Entry Security shall be surrendered to the Registrar.

(i) Until the exchange of the whole of a Book-Entry Security as aforesaid, the Holder shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as if it were the Holder of Definitive Securities. Subject as provided in the Indenture, each Person who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as entitled to a particular principal amount of the Notes represented by a Book-Entry Security (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the principal amount of such Notes standing to the account of any Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be deemed to be the Holder of such principal amount of such Notes for all purposes other than with respect to payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes for which purpose the Holder of a Book-Entry Security shall be deemed to be the Holder of such principal amount of the Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of a Book-Entry Security and the Indenture.

17

(j) In considering the interests of the Holders while a Book-Entry Security is registered in the name of a nominee for the common depositary of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, the Trustee may, to the extent it considers it appropriate to do so in the circumstances but without being obliged to do so, (a) have regard to any information provided to it by Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the identity (either individually or by category) of its Participants with entitlements to the relevant Notes and (b) consider such interests as if such Participants were the Holders of the Notes.

(k) For the purposes of enforcement of the provisions of the Indenture against the Trustee, the Persons named in a certificate of the Holder of the Notes in respect of which a Book-Entry Security is issued shall be recognized as the beneficiaries of the trusts set out in the Indenture to the extent of the principal amount of their interest in the Notes set out in such certificate as if they were themselves the Holders of the Notes in such principal amounts.

(l) Transfers of interests in the Notes will be effected through the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (or any alternative clearing system) and their respective direct and indirect participants. No transfer of a Note represented by a Book-Entry Security may be required to be effected during the period from and including the relevant Record Date to and including the date of payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, as applicable, on such Note.

(m) A Book-Entry Security shall not be valid unless authenticated by the Registrar.

4.4 Tax Redemption.

The Notes will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Corporation, with the prior approval of the Superintendent, at any time, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date, in the event that, as a result of an amendment to or change in the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof), or any amendment to or change in any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, or judicial decision interpreting such laws or regulations, which amendment, change or judicial decision is announced or becomes effective on or after the date such Notes are offered and sold, (i) the Corporation has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to any such Notes, any Additional Amounts (as defined below), or (ii) payments of interest on the Notes would be treated as dividends within the meaning of the Tax Act or any other act in respect of or relating to Canadian taxation or would otherwise be considered as payments of a type that are non-deductible for Canadian income tax purposes, and the Corporation cannot avoid the foregoing in connection with the Notes by taking measures reasonably available to it; provided, in each case, that such amendment or change was not reasonably foreseeable by the Corporation as at the Issue Date (each, a “Tax Event”). In respect of the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, reasonable measures do not include a change in the terms of the Notes or a substitution of the debtor. No redemption shall be made pursuant to this paragraph unless:

(a) the Corporation shall have received an opinion of counsel that a Tax Event has occured;

18

(b) the Corporation shall have delivered to the Trustee an officer’s certificate stating that the Corporation is entitled to redeem such Notes pursuant to the terms of such Notes; and

(c) at the time such notice of redemption is given, such Tax Event is continuing.

4.5 Regulatory Event Redemption.

If a Regulatory Event (as defined below) has occurred and is continuing, the Notes will be subject to redemption in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Corporation, with the prior approval of the Superintendent, at any time, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, at a redemption price equal to the Early Redemption Amount (as defined below) if redeemed prior to May 25, 2021 or at par thereafter together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

“Early Redemption Amount” means the greater of:

(a) par, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption; and

(b) the Make Whole Amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date fixed for redemption.

A “Regulatory Event” is deemed to have occurred on the date specified in a letter from the Superintendent to the Corporation on which the Notes will no longer be recognized in full as eligible Tier 2B capital of the Corporation or included as risk-based Total Available Capital on a consolidated basis, such date falling on a day on or after the Issue Date, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, non-recognition or non-inclusion solely by virtue of the Corporation already having in issue securities with an aggregate principal amount up to or in excess of the limit of Tier 2B capital permitted from time to time by OSFI or solely as a result of any discounting requirements as to the eligibility of the Notes for such inclusion pursuant to the relevant requirements issued by OSFI; provided that such non-recognition or non-inclusion was not reasonably foreseeable by the Corporation as at the Issue Date.

4.6 Additional Amounts.

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Corporation under or with respect to the Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (“Relevant Taxes”), except to the extent required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Corporation is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of such Relevant Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, the Corporation will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will be equal to the amount such Holder would have received if such Relevant Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of any Notes for or on account of:

(i) any Relevant Tax imposed by reason that such Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes or other Person entitled to payment under the Notes does not deal at

19

arm’s length within the meaning of the Tax Act with the Corporation or is, or does not deal at arm’s length with any Person who is, a “specified shareholder” of the Corporation (as defined in subsection 18(5) of the Tax Act);

(ii) any Relevant Tax that would not have been imposed if the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes complied with the Corporation’s request to provide information concerning his, her or its nationality, residence or identity or to make a declaration, claim or filing or satisfy any requirement for information or reporting that is required to establish the eligibility of the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes to receive the relevant payment without (or at a reduced rate of) withholding or deduction for or account of any such Relevant Tax;

(iii) any Relevant Tax that would not have been imposed but for the fact that the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes (or any fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) was a resident, domiciliary or national of, or engaged in business or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, or otherwise had some connection with Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, other than merely holding such Notes, or receiving payments under such Notes;

(iv) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property tax or any similar tax with respect to the Notes;

(v) any Relevant Tax that is levied or collected otherwise than by withholding from payments on or in respect of the Notes;

(vi) any withholding or deduction imposed pursuant to or in connection with (i) Sections 1471 to 1474 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any successor version thereof, or any similar legislation imposed by any other governmental authority, (ii) any agreements (including intergovernmental agreements) with respect thereto, or (iii) any treaty, law, regulation, or official interpretation enacted by Canada or any other governmental authority implementing any of the foregoing; or

(vii) any combination of the foregoing.

In addition, the Corporation will not pay Additional Amounts to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of the payment subject to the Relevant Tax, to the extent such payment would, under the laws of Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, be treated as being derived or received for tax purposes by a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to Additional Amounts had it been the Holder of the Notes.

(b) If the Corporation is required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof to withhold or deduct any Relevant Taxes from any payment under or with respect to the Notes, the Corporation will (i) make such withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount so deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable

20

law. The Corporation will furnish to the Holders, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Relevant Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or other documents evidencing such payment by the Corporation.

(c) If the Corporation is required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof to withhold or deduct any Relevant Taxes from any payment under or with respect to the Notes for which the Corporation would then have been required to pay Additional Amounts under paragraph (a) of this Section 4.6 and fails to so withhold or deduct, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder for the amount of (i) such Relevant Taxes levied or imposed on and paid by such Holder, (ii) any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising from such Relevant Taxes, and (iii) any Relevant Taxes imposed with respect to any payment under clauses (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (c) of this Section 4.6.

(d) At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable, if the Corporation is aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee an officer’s certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable, the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.

(e) Wherever in the Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 4.6 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

(f) If the Corporation shall have completed any transaction permitted pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Principal Indenture whereby the successor Person is organized under the laws of a country other than Canada or the United States or any of their respective political subdivisions, all references in this Section 4.6 to Canada and its political subdivisions shall be deemed to be references to both Canada and the country in which such successor Person is organized or resident (or deemed resident for tax purposes) and their respective political subdivisions.

Whenever interest is computed on a basis of a year (the “deemed year”) which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate for purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) by multiplying such rate of such interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

If the Trustee determines that mail service is or is threatened to be interrupted at the time when the Trustee is required or elects to give any notice to the Noteholders hereunder, the Trustee shall, notwithstanding the provisions hereof, give such notice by means of publication in The Business Times and The Asia Wall Street Journal, national edition, or any other English language daily newspaper or newspapers of general circulation in Singapore, once in each of two successive weeks, and any notice so published shall be deemed to have been given on the latest date on which the publication has taken place.
