Upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture, or from time to time thereafter, Debt Securities of any Series in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of such principal amount as shall have been set forth in an Authorization for such Series may be executed and delivered by the Republic to the Trustee for authentication, accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Republic directing such authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver such Debt Securities to or upon the written order of the Republic, signed by an Authorized Officer, without any further action by the Republic.

(c) In case any Authorized Officer who shall have signed any of the Debt Securities shall cease to be an Authorized Officer before the Debt Security so signed shall be authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or disposed of by or on behalf of the Republic, such Debt Security nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the

10

person who signed such Debt Security had not ceased to be an Authorized Officer; and any Debt Security may be signed on behalf of the Republic by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Debt Security, shall be Authorized Officers, although at the date of the execution and delivery of this Indenture any such person was not an Authorized Officer.

Only such Debt Securities as shall bear thereon a certification of authentication substantially as set forth below in this Section 2.3, executed by the Trustee by manual signature of one of its authorized signatories, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certification by the Trustee upon any Debt Security executed by or on behalf of the Republic shall be conclusive evidence that the Debt Security so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

SECTION 2.4. Denominations The Debt Securities of each Series shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in such denominations as shall be specified as contemplated by Section 2.1. In the absence of any such specified denomination with respect to the Debt Securities of any Series, the Debt Securities of such Series shall be issuable in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 2.5. Form of Debt Securities. (a) The Debt Securities of each Series shall be in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A, or Exhibit B, as applicable, and Exhibit C, or in such other form as shall be established by or pursuant to the Authorization contemplated by Section 2.1 or in one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in each case with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as are required or permitted by this Indenture, and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such legends or endorsements placed thereon as may be required to comply with the rules of any securities exchange or Depositary therefor or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers executing such Debt Securities, as evidenced by their execution thereof. The Debt Securities of each Series shall be issued only in fully registered form without coupons, and only in such denominations as shall be specified pursuant to Section 2.4.

(b) Each Debt Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

(c) If the Republic shall establish pursuant to an Authorization that the Debt Securities of a Series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Authorized Officers shall execute and the Trustee, upon receipt of such executed Global Securities and an Officer’s Certificate directing the same, shall authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities that (i) shall represent an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of such Series to be represented by one or more Global Securities, (ii) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Securities or the nominee of such Depositary, (iii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary’s instruction and (iv) shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for the Certificated Securities represented hereby, this Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or nominee of such successor Depositary.”

(d) Each Depositary designated pursuant to this Section 2.5 must, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as Depositary, be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation.

(e) If at any time the Depositary for any Series of Debt Securities represented by Global Securities notifies the Republic that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Securities or if at any time the Depositary for such Global Securities ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act or if at any time the Depositary for such Global Securities shall no longer be eligible to act as such under this Section 2.5, the Republic shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Global Securities. If a successor Depositary for such Global Securities is not appointed by the Republic within 90 days after the Republic receives notice from the Depositary or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Republic’s election pursuant to this Section 2.5 that Debt Securities of that Series be represented by Global Securities shall no longer be effective and the Republic will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate of the Republic directing the authentication and delivery of Certificated Securities and an adequate supply of Certificated Securities, will authenticate and deliver, without charge to the Holder, Certificated Securities of that Series in any authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Securities in exchange for such Global Securities.

(f) If the Trustee has instituted or has been directed to institute any judicial proceeding in a court to enforce the rights of the Holders of Debt Securities of any Series thereunder and the Trustee has been advised by counsel that in connection with such proceeding it is necessary or appropriate for the Trustee to obtain possession of the Debt Securities of such Series, the Trustee may in its sole discretion determine that the Debt Securities of such Series represented by Global Securities shall no longer be represented by such Global Securities. Additionally, the Republic, at its option, may determine to terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary for any Series and make Certificated Securities of such Series available to the Holders of Debt Securities of such Series or their nominees. In either such event, the Republic hereby agrees to execute and the Trustee, upon receipt from the Republic of an adequate supply of Certificated Securities of such Series, will authenticate and deliver, in exchange for Global Securities of such Series, Certificated Securities of such Series (and, if the

12

Trustee has in its possession Certificated Securities of such Series previously executed by the Republic, the Trustee will authenticate and deliver such Certificated Securities), in authorized denominations, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Securities of such Series.

(g) Certificated Securities will be issued in exchange for interests in Global Securities only pursuant to Section 2.5(e) or 2.5(f) hereof.

SECTION 2.6. Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Debt Securities. (a) The Republic will keep books for the exchange and registration of Debt Securities at the Corporate Trust Office. The Trustee will keep a record of all Debt Securities (the “Register”) at said office. The Register will show the principal amount of each Series of Debt Securities, the date of issue, all subsequent transfers and changes of ownership in respect thereof and the names, tax identifying numbers and addresses of the Holders of each Series. The Trustee will also maintain a record (the “Record”) which will include notations as to whether Debt Securities have been paid or cancelled, and, in the case of mutilated, apparently destroyed, stolen or lost Debt Securities, whether such Debt Securities have been replaced. In the case of the replacement of any of the Debt Securities, the Record will include notations of the Debt Security so replaced, and the Debt Security issued in replacement thereof. In the case of the cancellation of any Series of Debt Securities, the Record will include notations of the Series of Debt Securities so cancelled and the date on which such Series was cancelled. The Trustee shall at all reasonable times upon reasonable notice during office hours make the Register and the Record available to the Republic, or any Person authorized by the Republic in writing for inspection and for the taking of copies thereof or extracts therefrom, and at the sole expense of the Republic, the Trustee shall deliver to such Persons all lists of Holders of Debt Securities, their addresses and amounts of such holdings as such Person may request. The Register and the Record shall be in written form in the English language or in any other form capable of being converted into such form within a reasonable time.

(b) Subject to the requirements of Paragraph 7(c) of the Terms, the Holder of Certificated Securities may transfer the same in whole or in part (in an amount equal to the authorized denomination or any integral multiple thereof) by surrendering such Certificated Securities at the Corporate Trust Office or at the office of any paying agent, together with an executed instrument of transfer substantially in the form of Exhibit F to this Indenture. In exchange for Certificated Securities of any Series properly presented for transfer, the Trustee shall, within three Business Days of such request if made at such Corporate Trust Office, or within ten Business Days if made at the office of a paying agent (other than the Trustee) authenticate and deliver at such Corporate Trust Office, or at the office of any paying agent, as the case may be, to the transferee or send by first class mail (at the risk of the transferee) to such address as the transferee may request, Certificated Securities, as the case may require, of such Series for like aggregate principal amount and of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The presentation for transfer of any Certificated Securities shall not be valid unless made at the Corporate Trust Office or at the office of any paying agent by the registered Holder in person, or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact. The Republic shall ensure that the Trustee shall be provided with an adequate supply of executed Certificated Securities for authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.6(b).

13

(c) Subject to the requirements of Paragraph 7(b) of the Terms, at the option of the Holder, Certificated Securities may at any time be presented for exchange into an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Securities in different authorized denominations, but only at the Corporate Trust Office together with a written request for the exchange. Subject to this Section 2.6(c) and Paragraph 7(b) of the Terms, in exchange for Certificated Securities of any Series properly presented for exchange, the Trustee shall, within three Business Days following such request if made at such Corporate Trust Office, authenticate and deliver Certificated Securities of such Series for a like aggregate principal amount and of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The Republic shall ensure that the Trustee shall be provided with an adequate supply of executed Certificated Securities for authentication and delivery pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.6(c).

(d) The costs and expenses of effecting any transfer, registration or exchange pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be borne by the Republic except for the expenses of delivery (if any) not made by regular mail and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or governmental charge or insurance charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, which shall be borne by the Holders. Registration of the transfer of a Debt Security by the Trustee shall be deemed to be the acknowledgment of such transfer on behalf of the Republic.

SECTION 2.7. Mutilated, Defaced, Apparently Destroyed, Stolen and Lost Debt Securities; Cancellation and Destruction of Debt Securities. (a) The Republic shall execute and deliver to the Trustee Debt Securities in such amounts and at such times as to enable the Trustee to fulfill its responsibilities under this Indenture and the Debt Securities.

(b) The Trustee is hereby authorized, in accordance with and subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7(a) of the Terms, to authenticate and deliver from time to time Debt Securities of any Series in exchange for or in lieu of Debt Securities of such Series which become mutilated, defaced, apparently destroyed, stolen or lost. The Trustee and the Republic shall be entitled to receive satisfactory security and indemnity from the applicable Holder in connection with any such authentication. Each Debt Security delivered in exchange for or in lieu of any Debt Security shall carry all the rights to interest (including rights to accrued and unpaid interest) which were carried by such Debt Security.

(c) All Debt Securities surrendered for payment or exchange shall be delivered to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office. The Trustee shall cancel and dispose of all such Debt Securities surrendered for payment or exchange, as it may determine, and shall upon written request deliver a certificate of disposition to the Republic.

(d) Upon the issuance of any substitute Debt Security, the Holder of such Debt Security, if so requested by the Republic, shall pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expense (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute Debt Security.

(e) All Debt Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Debt Securities shall be valid obligations of the Republic, evidencing the same debt and entitled to the

14

same benefits under this Indenture, as the Debt Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

SECTION 2.8. CUSIP or Other Identifying Numbers. The Republic in issuing the Debt Securities of any Series may use CUSIP or other identifying numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP or other identifying numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Debt Securities of such Series or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Debt Securities of such Series, and such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Republic will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any initial CUSIP or other identifying numbers and any change in the CUSIP or other identifying numbers.

ARTICLE THREE

COVENANTS

SECTION 3.1. Payment of Principal and Interest. The Republic covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and premium if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, each of the Debt Securities and any other payments to be made by the Republic under the Debt Securities and this Indenture, at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the Debt Securities and this Indenture.

If any date for an interest or principal payment is not a Business Day, the Republic will make, or cause to be made, the payment on the next succeeding Business Day. Such payments will be deemed to have been made on the due date, and no interest on the Debt Securities will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.

SECTION 3.2. Offices for Payments. So long as any of the Debt Securities remain Outstanding, the Republic will maintain the following in New York City (or, with respect to any Series of Debt Securities, at such other place set forth in an Authorization): (a) an office or agency where the Debt Securities may be presented for payment, (b) an office or agency where the Debt Securities may be presented for exchange, transfer and registration of transfer as in this Indenture provided and (c) an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Republic in respect of the Debt Securities or of this Indenture may be served. The Republic hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office as the office or agency for each such purpose and as the place where the Register will be maintained. In case the Republic shall fail to maintain any such office or agency or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof, presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the Corporate Trust Office. If any Series of Debt Securities are listed on a securities exchange and that securities exchange so requires, the Republic will maintain a paying agent in the region where the security exchange is located for such Series. The Republic will give the Trustee prompt written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof.

SECTION 3.3. Appointment to Fill a Vacancy in Office of Trustee. The Republic, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in

15

the manner provided in Section 5.9, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder for each Series of Debt Securities.

SECTION 3.4. Payments. (a) In order to provide for the payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts, unless otherwise provided for in the Debt Securities) on, the Debt Securities as the same shall become due and payable, the Republic hereby agrees to pay or to cause to be paid to the account of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office (or, in the case of payments denominated in a currency other than Dollars, at such other place as set forth in an Authorization), not later than 10:00 a.m. at least one Business Day prior to each Stated Maturity Date (each, a “Payment Date”) with respect to such Debt Securities, in such coin or currency of the United States (or in such other currency as shall be specified in the Terms of the Debt Securities of the Series with respect to which payment is to be made) as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, in immediately available funds, an amount which (together with any funds then held by the Trustee and available for the purpose) shall be sufficient to pay the aggregate amount of interest (including Additional Amounts) or principal or both, as the case may be, becoming due in respect of such Debt Securities on such Payment Date. The Trustee shall apply such amount to the payment due on such Payment Date and, pending such application, such amounts shall be held in trust by the Trustee for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto in accordance with their respective interests and the Republic shall have no proprietary or other interest whatsoever in such amounts.

(b) At least five Business Days prior to the first date for payment of interest on each Series of Debt Securities and, if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned certificate, at least five Business Days prior to each date thereafter for the payment of principal of or interest on such Debt Securities, the Republic shall furnish the Trustee with a certificate of any one of the Authorized Officers specifically instructing the Trustee as to any circumstances in which payments of principal of or interest on such Debt Securities due on such date shall be subject to deduction or withholding for or on account of any taxes described in Paragraph 3(a) of the Terms and the rate of any such deduction or withholding. If any such deduction or withholding shall be required and if the Republic therefore becomes liable to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to Paragraph 3(a) of the Terms, then at least five Business Days prior to the date of any such payment of principal or interest, the Republic will furnish the Trustee with a certificate which specifies the amount required to be withheld on such payment to Holders of such Debt Securities and the Additional Amounts, if any, due to Holders of such Debt Securities, and simultaneously will pay to the Trustee such Additional Amounts as shall be required to be paid to such Holders.

(c) Whenever the Republic shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee for the purpose of paying amounts due in respect of the Debt Securities of any Series, it will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such paying agent shall agree with the Trustee and the Republic subject to the provisions of this Section 3.4,

(i) that it will hold all sums received by it as such agent for the payment of the Debt Securities of that Series in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Debt Securities of that Series or of the Trustee,

16

(ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Republic to make any payment of the principal of or interest or Additional Amounts, if any, on the Debt Securities of that Series and any other payments to be made by or on behalf of the Republic under this Indenture, when the same shall be due and payable, and

(iii) that it will pay any such sums so held in trust by it to the Trustee upon the Trustee’s written request at any time during the continuance of a failure referred to in clause (ii) above.

Anything in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Republic may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by any paying agent hereunder, as required by this Section 3.4, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained. Anything in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreements to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section 3.4 are subject to the provisions of Section 8.3 and Section 8.4.

SECTION 3.5. Notice of Event of Default. The Republic acting through any of its Authorized Officers will give the Trustee notice by facsimile or electronic transmission or other written communication satisfactory to the Trustee of any Event of Default relating to the Republic or of any condition or event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default relating to the Republic, within five days after the occurrence of such Event of Default or such other event or condition becomes known to the Republic, and of the measures it is taking to remedy such Event of Default or such other event or condition.

SECTION 3.6. Calculation of Original Issue Discount. If the Republic issues Debt Securities with original issue discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Republic shall file with the Trustee promptly, but no later than 60 days following the date of issuance (i) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) that will accrue on such Debt Securities for each year during which such Debt Securities are scheduled to be outstanding and (ii) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as may be requested by the Trustee to satisfy the relevant reporting requirements under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. This provision shall not apply with respect to any Debt Securities for which the Republic has filed an IRS Form 8281 with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days of the issue date of such Debt Securities. In such case, the Republic shall provide a copy of IRS Form 8281 to the Trustee.

ARTICLE FOUR

REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND HOLDERS ON EVENT OF DEFAULT

SECTION 4.1. Events of Default; Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. (a) An Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of any Series shall consist of the events specified in the form of Debt Securities for such Series as Events of Default.

17

(b) If an Event of Default under any Series of Debt Securities shall have occurred and be continuing then in each and every such case, upon notice in writing by the Holders (the “Demanding Holders”) (acting individually or together) of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Debt Securities of such Series to the Republic, with a copy to the Trustee, of any such Event of Default and its continuance, the Demanding Holders may declare the principal amount of all the Debt Securities of such Series due and payable immediately, and the same shall become and shall be due and payable upon the date that such written notice is received by or on behalf of the Republic, unless prior to such date all Events of Default in respect of all the Debt Securities of such Series shall have been cured; provided that if, at any time after the principal of the Debt Securities of such Series shall have been so declared due and payable, and before the sale of any property pursuant to any judgment or decree for the payment of monies due which shall have been obtained or entered in connection with the Debt Securities of such Series, the Republic shall pay or shall deposit (or cause to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal upon all the Debt Securities of such Series which shall have become due otherwise than solely by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent permitted by law, and on such principal of each Debt Security of such Series at the rate of interest specified herein, to the date of such payment of interest or principal) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other documented expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred, and all advances made for documented expenses and legal fees, reasonably incurred by the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and if any and all Events of Default under the Debt Securities of such Series, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Debt Securities of such Series which shall have become due solely by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, and in every such case, the Holders of more than 50% (acting individually or together) in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of such Series then Outstanding, by written notice to the Republic and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of all of the Holders of Debt Securities of such Series, waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 4.2. Collection of Indebtedness by Trustee; Trustee May Prove Debt. (a) The Republic covenants that if (i) there shall be a default in the payment of any interest (including Additional Amounts) on any Series of Debt Securities when such interest (including Additional Amounts) shall have become due and payable, and such default shall have continued for a period specified in the Terms of the Debt Securities, or (ii) there shall be a default in the payment of all or any part of the principal of any Series of Debt Securities when the same shall have become due and payable, whether upon maturity or by acceleration or otherwise, and such default shall have continued for a period specified in the Terms of the Debt Securities, then upon demand of the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of such Series of Debt Securities (with a copy to the Trustee), the Republic will pay to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of such Debt Securities the whole amount then due and payable on such Debt Securities for principal, and premium, if any, and interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Debt Securities, and, in addition thereto, the Republic shall pay or cause to be paid such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the

18

documented costs and expenses of collection reasonably incurred, including reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and any documented expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred, and all documented advances reasonably made, by the Trustee and each predecessor trustee except as a result of their gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) Until such demand is made by the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of such Series of Debt Securities, the Republic may pay the principal of, and interest on (including Additional Amounts), the Debt Securities to the Holders, whether or not any payment under the Debt Securities shall be overdue.

(c) In case the Republic shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered to institute any action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Republic and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Republic, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

(d) All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture or the Debt Securities of any Series may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any Debt Securities or the production thereof on any trial or other proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Trustee, each predecessor trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Debt Securities of that Series in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

(e) In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) with respect to one or several Series of Debt Securities, the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of such Series of Debt Securities, and it shall not be necessary to make any such Holders parties to any such proceedings.

SECTION 4.3. Application of Proceeds. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Four shall be applied in the following order at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such monies on account of principal or interest (including Additional Amounts), upon presentation of the Debt Securities of the Series in respect of which money has been collected and stamping (or otherwise noting) thereon the payment, or issuing Debt Securities in reduced principal amounts in exchange for the presented Debt Securities if only partially paid, or upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee or predecessor trustee under Section 5.6;

SECOND: In case the principal of the Debt Securities of such Series shall not have become and be then due and payable, to the payment of overdue interest (including

19

Additional Amounts) in default on such Series of Debt Securities in the order of the maturity of the installments of such interest (including Additional Amounts), with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon the overdue installments of interest (including Additional Amounts) at the same rate as the rate of interest specified in such Debt Securities, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto, without discrimination or preference;

THIRD: In case the principal of the Debt Securities of such Series shall have become and shall be then due and payable, to the payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon all Debt Securities of such Series for principal and interest (including Additional Amounts), with interest upon the overdue principal, and (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon overdue installments of interest (including Additional Amounts) at the rate of interest specified in such Debt Securities; and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amount so due and unpaid upon the Debt Securities of such Series, then to the payment of such principal and interest (including Additional Amounts), without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal, or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Debt Security of such Series over any other Debt Securities of the same Series, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and accrued and unpaid interest; and

FOURTH: To the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Republic or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto.

SECTION 4.4. Suits for Enforcement. If an Event of Default has occurred, has not been waived and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion (but is not required to) proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of such rights, either at law or in equity, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

SECTION 4.5. Restoration of Rights on Abandonment of Proceedings. In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Republic and the Trustee shall be restored respectively to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Republic, the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceedings had been taken.

SECTION 4.6. Limitations on Suits by Holders. Except as provided in Section 4.7, no Holder of any Debt Securities of any Series shall have any right by virtue of or by availing itself of any provision of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities of such Series to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture or of the Debt Securities, or for any other remedy hereunder or under the Debt Securities, unless (a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of

20

default and of the continuance thereof with respect to such Series of Debt Securities, (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of Debt Securities of such Series shall have made specific written request to the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have provided to the Trustee such indemnity or other security as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby and (c) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and provision of indemnity or other security, shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.9, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by every Holder of Debt Securities of a Series with every other Holder of Debt Securities of such Series and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself of any provision of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder of Debt Securities of such Series or to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture or under the Debt Securities of such Series, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Debt Securities of such Series. For the protection and enforcement of this Section 4.6, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

SECTION 4.7. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and Interest. Notwithstanding Section 4.6, each Holder of Debt Securities shall have the right to receive payment of the principal of and interest on (including Additional Amounts) its Debt Security on the Stated Maturity Date for such payment expressed in such Debt Security (as such Debt Security may be amended or modified pursuant to Article Eleven) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after the Stated Maturity Date, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 4.8. Powers and Remedies Cumulative; Delay or Omission Not Waiver of Default. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Terms, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders of Debt Securities is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of Debt Securities to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any such right or power or be construed to be a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject to Section 4.6, every power and remedy given by this Indenture or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Debt Securities may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by such Holders.

SECTION 4.9. Control by Holders. (a) Subject to Section 4.9(c), the Holders of a Majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the Debt Securities of any Series shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for

21

any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee by this Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of such Series.

(b) Subject to Section 4.9(c), the Holders of a Majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the Debt Securities of any Series shall have the right to direct and approve the settlement or compromise of any legal proceeding for the enforcement of the Debt Securities of that Series commenced by the Trustee.

(c) Any direction pursuant to Section 4.9(a) or (b) shall only be in accordance with law and the provisions of this Indenture, and (subject to the provisions of Section 5.1) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall so determine that the actions or forbearances specified in or pursuant to such direction shall be unduly prejudicial to the interests of the Holders of Debt Securities of that Series that did not join in the giving of said direction, it being understood that, subject to Section 5.1, the Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders.

Nothing in this Indenture shall impair the right of the Trustee at its discretion to take any action deemed proper by the Trustee and which is not inconsistent with such direction by the Holders of the Debt Securities with respect to which such action is to be taken.

SECTION 4.10. Payments After a Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the subsequent declaration by the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of a Series of Debt Securities that the principal amount of all the Debt Securities of such Series is due and payable immediately (pursuant to Paragraph 5 of the Terms), the Trustee may by notice in writing: (a) to the Republic and any paying agent, require each paying agent (if any) to deliver all Debt Securities of such Series and all monies, documents and records held by them with respect to the Debt Securities of such Series to the Trustee or as the Trustee otherwise directs in such notice; and (b) require any paying agent to act as agent of the Trustee under this Indenture and the Debt Securities of such Series, and thereafter to hold all Debt Securities of such Series and all monies, documents and records held by it in respect of Debt Securities of such Series to the order of the Trustee.

ARTICLE FIVE

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

SECTION 5.1. Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee. (a) The Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. If an Event of Default with respect to any Debt Securities exists, then the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in the exercise thereof as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

22

No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

i. the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee;

ii. in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any statements, resolutions, instruments, reports, notices, requests, consents, directions, orders, appraisals, bonds, certificates, opinions or other documents furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but in the case of any such statements, certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein);

iii. the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

iv. the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it with respect to Debt Securities of any Series in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a Majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the Debt Securities of such Series relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.

(b) Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee or a paying agent be liable under or in connection with this Indenture for indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever, including but not limited to lost profits, whether or not foreseeable, even if the Trustee or the paying agent has been advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action in which such damages are sought.

(c) None of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend, advance or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there shall be reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such liability satisfactory to the Trustee is not assured to it.

(d) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the

23

Trustee shall have received written notice thereof and such notice references the applicable Series of Debt Securities, the default or Event of Default and this Indenture. In the absence of receipt of such notice the Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no default or Event of Default.

(e) The Trustee shall have no duty (i) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Indenture or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (ii) to see to any insurance, (iii) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind or (iv) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

i. the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer’s Certificate or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, security or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

ii. any request, direction, order or demand of the Republic mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed);

iii. the Trustee may consult with counsel (and the Republic shall reimburse the Trustee for the reasonable and documented expenses of such counsel) and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;

iv. the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Indenture or to defend any litigation hereunder at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders of Debt Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Holders of Debt Securities shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred therein or thereby;

v. the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion, rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

24

malfunctions of utilities; computer (hardware or software) or communications service or Federal Reserve Bank wire service; accidents; labor disputes; any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority; and acts of civil or military authority or governmental actions; it being understood that the Trustee shall use its best efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

vii. with respect to any Series of Debt Securities, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to such Series of Debt Securities, and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default with respect to such Series of Debt Securities, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, appraisal, bond, debenture, guaranty, note, coupon, security, or other paper or document unless requested in writing so to do by the Holders of not less than a Majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of such Series at the time Outstanding; provided that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the documented costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be reasonably incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require from the Holders of Debt Securities of such Series indemnity or other security satisfactory to the Trustee against such expenses properly incurred or liabilities as a condition to proceeding; the documented expenses reasonably incurred in every such examination shall be paid by the Republic or, if paid by the Trustee or any predecessor trustee, shall be repaid by the Republic upon demand;

viii. the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians or attorneys not regularly in its employ and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any such agent, custodian or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;

x. the rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder;

25

xi. the Trustee may request that the Republic deliver an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officer’s Certificate may be signed by any person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded; and

xii. whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Article Five.

The right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such act.

The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety.

In making or disposing of any investment permitted by this Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to deal with itself (in its individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, in each case on an arm’s-length basis and on standard market terms, whether it or such affiliate is acting as a subagent of the Trustee or for any third person or dealing as principal for its own account.

The Trustee shall have no obligation to invest and reinvest any cash held in the absence of timely and specific written investment direction from the Republic, with no liability for interest hereunder. In no event shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for investment losses incurred thereon.

Delivery of reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Republic’s or any other entity’s compliance with any covenants under this Indenture, the Debt Securities or any other related documents. The Trustee shall not be obligated to monitor or confirm, on a continuing basis or otherwise, the Republic’s or any other entity’s compliance with the covenants described herein or with respect to any reports or other documents filed under this Indenture, the Debt Securities or any other related document.

No provision of this Indenture, the Debt Securities or any other related document shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Trustee to take or omit to take any action, or suffer any action to be taken or omitted, in the performance of its duties or obligations, or to exercise any right or power thereunder, to the extent that taking or omitting to take such action or suffering such action to be taken or omitted would violate applicable law binding upon it.

The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits provided to the Trustee hereunder (including but not limited to its right to be indemnified) are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and to each of its Responsible Officers and other Persons duly employed by the Trustee hereunder as if they were

26

each expressly set forth herein for the benefit of the Trustee in each such capacity, Responsible Officer or employees of the Trustee mutatis mutandis.

The Trustee shall have the right to require that any directions, instructions or notices provided to it be signed by an Authorized Officer, be provided on corporate letterhead, be notarized, or contain such other evidence as may be reasonably requested by the Trustee to establish the identity and/or signatures thereon.

In order to comply with the laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable to banking institutions, including, without limitation, those relating to the funding of terrorist activities and money laundering, including Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act of the United States (“Applicable Law”), the Trustee is required to obtain, verify, record and update certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business relationship with the Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agree to provide to the Trustee, upon its request from time to time such identifying information and documentation as may be available for such party in order to enable the Trustee to comply with Applicable Law.

The Trustee shall not be required to take any action outside of the United States in the performance of its duties and the exercise of its rights hereunder.

SECTION 5.3. Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals, Disposition of Debt Securities or Application of Proceeds Thereof. The recitals contained herein and in the Debt Securities shall be taken as the statements of the Republic, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Debt Securities. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Republic of any of the Debt Securities or of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 5.4. Trustee May Hold Debt Securities; Collections. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Debt Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. The Trustee is entitled to enter into business transactions with the Republic or any of its affiliates without accounting for any profit resulting from such transactions.

SECTION 5.5. Monies Held by Trustee. All monies received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by mandatory provisions of law. The Trustee shall not be under any liability to any Person for interest on any monies received by it hereunder.

SECTION 5.6. Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Its Prior Claim. (a) The Republic covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, compensation as agreed between the Republic and the Trustee (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) and the Republic covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor trustee upon its request for all documented expenses, disbursements, losses and advances properly and reasonably incurred or made by or on behalf of it in accordance with any

27

of the provisions of this Indenture (including, without limitation, the compensation, documented expenses and disbursements reasonably incurred of its counsel and of all agents and other persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) The Republic also covenants to indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, directly or indirectly, arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the trusts hereunder and its duties hereunder, including, without limitation, the documented costs and expenses reasonably incurred of defending itself against or investigating any claim of liability with respect to the foregoing (including the costs and expenses of successfully defending itself against a claim brought by the Republic hereunder).

(c) The obligations of the Republic under this Section 5.6 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor trustee for documented expenses, disbursements, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, claims and advances reasonably incurred or made shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the payment of any Debt Securities hereunder and the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Debt Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Debt Securities, and the Debt Securities are hereby subordinated to such senior claim.

SECTION 5.7. Right of Trustee to Rely on Officer’s Certificate. Subject to Sections 5.1 and 5.2, whenever in the administration of the trusts of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof shall be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and shall, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

SECTION 5.8. Persons Eligible for Appointment as Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$50,000,000, doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of a federal, state or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section 5.8, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.

28

SECTION 5.9. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor Trustee. (a) The Trustee may at any time resign with respect to the Debt Securities of any one or more Series by giving not less than 90 days’ written notice of resignation to the Republic and by providing notice thereof to the affected Holders at the expense of the Republic as provided in Paragraph 11 of the Terms of the affected Series. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Republic shall promptly appoint a successor trustee with respect to such Series by written instrument in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 60 days after such notice of resignation has been given, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Republic, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or any Holder of Debt Securities of the affected Series who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of such Series for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper, appoint a successor trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of the affected Series.

(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

i. the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.8 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by or on behalf of the Republic or by any Holder; or

ii. the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver or liquidator of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case, the Republic may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee with respect to all affected Debt Securities by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Debt Security of any affected Series for at least six months may on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of such Series.

(c) The Holders of a Majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the Debt Securities of any Series may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee for the Debt Securities of such Series by delivering to the Trustee so removed, to the successor trustee so appointed and to the Republic the evidence provided for in Section 6.1 of the action in that regard taken by the Holders.

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and any appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 5.9 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 5.10.

29

(e) In the case of any series of Debt Securities proposed to be issued hereunder that are subject to the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, at the option of the Trustee or the Republic, the Republic will appoint a successor trustee for such series of Debt Securities prior to the authentication thereof.

SECTION 5.10. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor Trustee. (a) In the case of an appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all Debt Securities, each successor trustee so appointed shall execute and deliver to the Republic and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Republic or of the successor trustee, upon payment of its charges then unpaid, the Trustee ceasing to act shall pay over to the successor trustee all monies at the time held by it hereunder and shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Republic shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a prior claim upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.6.

(b) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of one or more (but not all) Series, the Republic, the predecessor trustee and each successor trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of the affected Series shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall accept such appointment and which (i) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of that or those Series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates, (ii) shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of that or those Series as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in the retiring Trustee and (iii) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in any such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee; and upon the execution and delivery of any such supplemental indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debt Securities of that or those Series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates; but, on request of the Republic or any successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder with respect to the Debt Securities of that or those Series to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates.

30

(c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 5.10, the Republic shall provide notice thereof to the affected Holders as provided in Paragraph 11 of the Terms. If the acceptance of appointment is substantially contemporaneous with the resignation, then the notice called for by the preceding sentence may be combined with the notice called for by Section 5.9. If the Republic fails to provide such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be provided at the expense of the Republic.

SECTION 5.11. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business of Trustee. Any corporation into which a Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which a Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of a Trustee, shall be the successor of such Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 5.8, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case a successor to the Trustee succeeds to the trusts created by this Indenture at a time when any of the affected Debt Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of the predecessor trustee and deliver such Debt Securities so authenticated; and, in case at that time any of the affected Debt Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Debt Securities either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificate shall have the full force provided in the Debt Securities or in this Indenture for a certificate of the Trustee; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of a predecessor trustee or to authenticate Debt Securities in the name of a predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

SECTION 5.12. Appointment of Co-Trustee. (a) It is the purpose of this Indenture that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Indenture, and in particular in case of the enforcement thereof on default, or in the case the Trustee deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the powers, rights or remedies herein granted to the Trustee or hold title to the properties, in trust, as herein granted or take any action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Trustee appoint an individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee. The following provisions of this Section 5.12 are adopted to these ends.

(b) If the Trustee appoints an additional individual or institution as a separate or co-trustee, each and every remedy, power, right, claim, demand, cause of action, immunity, estate, title, interest and lien expressed or intended by this Indenture to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Trustee with respect thereto shall be exercisable by and vest in such separate or co-trustee but only to the extent necessary to enable such separate or co-trustee to exercise such powers, rights and remedies, and only to the extent that the Trustee by the laws of any jurisdiction is incapable of exercising such powers, rights and remedies and every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such separate or co-trustee shall run to and be enforceable by either of them.

31

(c) Should any instrument in writing from the Republic be required by the separate or co-trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Republic; provided, that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if the Republic does not execute any such instrument within fifteen (15) days after request therefor, the Trustees shall be empowered as an attorney-in-fact for the Republic to execute any such instrument in the Republic’s name and stead. In case any separate or co-trustee or a successor to either shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate or co-trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new trustee or successor to such separate or co-trustee.

(d) Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

i. all rights and powers, conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and may be exercised or performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee; and

ii. No trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder.

(e) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Section 5.12.

(f) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time appoint the Trustee as its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successors trustee.

ARTICLE SIX

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS

SECTION 6.1. Evidence of Action Taken by Holders. Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders of any Series of Debt Securities may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments is or are received by the Trustee for such Series. Proof of execution of any instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to

32

Section 5.1 and Section 5.2) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Republic, if made in the manner provided in this Article.

SECTION 6.2. Proof of Execution of Instruments and of Holding of Debt Securities. Subject to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, the execution of any instrument by a Holder or his agent or proxy may be proved in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Debt Securities for purposes of this Indenture shall be proved by the Register maintained pursuant to Section 2.6 or by a certificate of the Trustee. The Republic may set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to vote, or consent to any action referred to in Section 6.1, which record date may be set at any time and from time to time by written notice to the Trustee, for any date or dates (in the case of any adjournment or resolicitation) not more than 60 days nor less than ten days prior to the proposed date of such vote or consent, and thereafter, notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, only Holders of record on such record date shall be entitled to so vote or give such consent or to withdraw such vote or consent.

SECTION 6.3. Holders to Be Treated as Owners. The Republic, the Trustee and any agent of the Republic or the Trustee may deem and treat any Person in whose name any Debt Security shall be registered upon the Register as the absolute owner of such Debt Security (whether or not such Debt Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, interest (including Additional Amounts) on such Debt Security and for all other purposes; and none of the Republic, the Trustee or any agent of the Republic, or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any such Person, or upon his order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable upon any such Debt Security. The Republic, the Trustee, any registrar and any paying agent shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the sole Holder of Global Securities for all purposes whatsoever. Participants shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by a Depositary or nominee of a Depositary or under such Global Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Republic, the Trustee or any agent of the Republic or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its Participants, the operation of customary practices of the Depositary governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of a beneficial interest in any Global Security.

SECTION 6.4. Right of Revocation of Action Taken. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 6.1, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of any Series or of the percentage of votes cast required in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Debt Security the serial number of which is shown to be included among the serial numbers of the Debt Securities of Holders that have consented to such action may, by filing written notice at the Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in this Article Six, revoke such action so far as concerns such Debt Security. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by a Holder shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Debt Security and of any Debt Securities issued in exchange

33

or substitution therefor, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon any such Debt Security.

ARTICLE SEVEN

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

SECTION 7.1. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Republic and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto to effect any Modification made pursuant to Section 11.1.

The Trustee is hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer, assignment, mortgage or pledge of any property thereunder, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 7.1 may be executed without the consent of the Holders of any of the Debt Securities of the affected Series, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 7.2 or Article Eleven.

SECTION 7.2. Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. Upon approval of a Modification in accordance with Section 11.1, Section 11.2, Section 11.3, Section 11.4, Section 11.5 or Section 11.6, the Republic and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture (or the Terms of the Debt Securities of a Series affected by such Modification pursuant to such approved Modification).

Upon the request of the Republic, accompanied by a copy of the supplemental indenture and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders and other documents, if any, required by Section 6.1, the Trustee shall join with the Republic in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 7.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

Promptly after the execution by the Republic and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.2, the Republic shall at its own expense provide notice thereof to the affected Holders as provided in Paragraph 11 of the Terms, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Republic to publish such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

34

SECTION 7.3. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture and the Debt Securities of the affected Series shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Republic and the Holders of the affected Series shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

SECTION 7.4. Documents to Be Given to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, shall be entitled to receive in addition to the documents required by Section 9.5, one or more Opinions of Counsel addressed to the Trustee stating that, and as conclusive evidence that, any such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such supplemental indenture shall be a valid and binding obligation of the Republic, enforceable against the Republic in accordance with its terms (subject, as to enforceability, to such exceptions or qualifications as are standard in opinions by such counsel with regard to enforceability of the obligations of sovereigns) and that such supplemental indenture complies with the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

SECTION 7.5. Notation on Debt Securities in Respect of Supplemental Indentures. Debt Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article Seven may bear a notation in form and manner approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for by such supplemental indenture. If the Republic or the Trustee shall so determine, new Debt Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Republic at the expense of the Republic, authenticated by the Trustee pursuant to an Officer’s Certificate and delivered in exchange for the Debt Securities of the affected Series.

SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE; UNCLAIMED MONIES

SECTION 8.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture. If at any time (a) the Republic shall have paid or caused to be paid the principal of and interest (including Additional Amounts) on all of the Debt Securities of any Series Outstanding hereunder, as and when the same shall have become due and payable, or (b) the Republic shall have delivered to the Trustee for cancellation all Debt Securities of any Series theretofore authenticated (other than any Debt Securities which shall have been apparently destroyed, lost or stolen and which shall have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.7) or (c) (i) all the Debt Securities of any Series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation shall have become due and payable within one year and (ii) the Republic shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee the entire amount (other than monies repaid by the Trustee or any paying agent to the Republic in accordance with Section 8.3 and Section 8.4) sufficient to pay at maturity all Debt Securities of that Series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal and interest (including Additional Amounts) due or to become

35

due to such date of maturity as the case may be, and if, in any such case, the Republic shall also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Republic, then this Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Debt Securities of that Series (except as to (i) rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of apparently mutilated, defaced, apparently destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Securities, (iii) rights of Holders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest (including Additional Amounts) thereon, (iv) the rights, obligations, indemnities and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (v) the rights of the Holders as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the Trustee payable to all or any of them), and the Trustee, on demand of the Republic accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate of the Republic and an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (which documents shall state that all conditions precedent to the satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied) and at the cost and expense of the Republic, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging such satisfaction of and discharging this Indenture with respect to the Debt Securities of that Series. The Republic agrees to reimburse or cause the reimbursement of the Trustee for any documented costs or expenses thereafter reasonably incurred and to compensate the Trustee for any services thereafter reasonably and properly rendered by the Trustee in connection with this Indenture or the Debt Securities.

SECTION 8.2. Application by Trustee of Funds Deposited for Payment of Debt Securities. Subject to Section 8.4, all monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.1 shall be held in trust by the Trustee and applied by it to the payment, either directly or through any paying agent (including the Republic acting as its own paying agent), to the Holders of the particular Debt Securities for the payment of which such monies have been deposited with the Trustee, of all sums due and to become due thereon as principal and interest (including Additional Amounts); but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

SECTION 8.3. Repayment of Monies Held by Paying Agent. In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to any Series of Debt Securities, all monies then held by any paying agent under the provisions of this Indenture for such Securities shall, upon written demand of the Republic be repaid to the Republic or transferred to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders, and thereupon such paying agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such monies.

SECTION 8.4. Return of Monies Held by Trustee or Other Paying Agent. Any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee or to any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest (including Additional Amounts) on any Debt Security and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall be repaid to or for the account of the Republic by the Trustee or such paying agent, upon the written request of the Republic and, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder of such Debt Security shall thereafter look only to the Republic for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease. The Republic shall cause all returned, unclaimed monies to be held in trust for the relevant Holder of the Debt Security until such time as the claims against the Republic for payment of such amounts shall have been prescribed pursuant to Paragraph 13 of the Terms.

ARTICLE NINE

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

SECTION 9.1. Public Officials of the Republic Exempt from Individual Liability. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture, or in any Debt Security, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any official of the Republic or of any successor, either directly or through the Republic or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance of the Debt Securities by the Holders thereof and as part of the consideration for the issue of the Debt Securities.

SECTION 9.2. Provisions of Indenture for the Sole Benefit of Parties and Holders. Nothing in this Indenture, in the Debt Securities, expressed or implied, shall give or be construed to give to any Person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and their successors and the Holders, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture or under any covenant or provision herein contained, all such covenants and provisions being for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and of the Holders.

SECTION 9.3. Successors and Assigns of the Republic. All the covenants, stipulations, promises and agreements in this Indenture contained by or on behalf of the Republic shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

SECTION 9.4. Notices and Demands on the Republic, Trustee and Holders. Any notice or demand which by any provision of this Indenture is required or permitted to be given or served by the Trustee or by the Holders to or on the Republic shall be given or served by facsimile transmission (except as otherwise specifically provided herein) addressed (until another address of the Republic is filed by the Republic with the Trustee) to: Republic of Peru, Ministerio de Economía y Finanzas del Perú, Xx. Xxxxx Xx. 000, Xxxx, Xxxx (facsimile: x00 0 000-0000), attention: General Director of the General Directorate of Public Indebtedness and Treasury.

Any notice, direction, request or demand by or on behalf of the Republic, or any Holder to or upon the Trustee shall be given or made at the Corporate Trust Office.

Any aforementioned notice shall be deemed to have been given, made or served if given by facsimile transmission, when such facsimile is transmitted to the telephone number specified in this paragraph and telephonic confirmation of receipt thereof is received.

All notices, demands, directions, instructions and other communications delivered to the Trustee shall be in English and shall be deemed effective upon actual receipt.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any or all Series, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if given in accordance with Paragraph 11 of the Terms of the affected Series. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such

37

notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or otherwise, it shall be impracticable to mail or publish notice to the Republic, or the Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be deemed reasonable by the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

The Trustee may rely upon and comply with instructions or directions sent via unsecured facsimile or email transmission and the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability or expense of any kind incurred by the Republic or the Holders due to the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with instructions or directions given by unsecured facsimile or email transmission, provided, however, that such losses have not arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee, it being understood that the failure of the Trustee to verify or confirm that the person providing the instructions or directions, is in fact, an authorized person does not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 9.5. Officer’s Certificates and Opinions of Counsel; Statements to Be Contained Therein. Upon any application or demand by or on behalf of the Republic to the Trustee to take any action under any of the provisions of this Indenture, the Republic shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent have been complied with, except that in the case of any such application or demand as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular application or demand, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

Each certificate or opinion provided for in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include (a) a statement that the person making such certificate or opinion has read such covenant or condition, (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based, (c) a statement that, in the opinion of such person, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with and (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

Any certificate or statement of an Authorized Officer of the Republic may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon an opinion of or representations by counsel, unless such Authorized Officer knows that the opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or statement may be based as aforesaid are erroneous, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know that the same are erroneous. Any Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon the certificate or statement of or representations by an Authorized Officer or Officers of the Republic, unless such counsel knows that the certificate or statement of representations with respect to the matters upon which his

38

opinion may be based as aforesaid are erroneous, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know that the same are erroneous.

SECTION 9.6. Payments Due on Non-Business Days. In any case where the Payment Date shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal or any premium, if any, or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day at the relevant place of payment. Any payment made on a date other than the maturity date as set forth in the Debt Securities of a Series shall have the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity of that Series, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date.

SECTION 9.7. Governing Law; Consent to Service, Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities. (a) This Indenture and the Debt Securities (unless otherwise specified in the Authorization of the applicable Series) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York; provided, however, that all matters governing the Republic’s authorization and execution of this Indenture and the Debt Securities shall in all cases be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Peru. Notwithstanding any Authorization or any Reserved Matter Modification, that Article Ten and Eleven (and the corresponding Terms of the Debt Securities) shall in all cases be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

(b) In connection with any suit, action or proceeding against it or its properties assets or revenues arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the Debt Securities (a “Related Proceeding”), the Republic agrees (i) to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or U.S. Federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, and any appellate court thereof (the “Specified Courts”); (ii) that all claims in respect of such Related Proceeding may be heard and determined in such Specified Courts; (iii) that any judgment obtained in the Specified Courts arising out of any Related Proceeding may be enforced or executed in any other court of competent jurisdiction whatsoever; and (iv) that any judgment obtained in any such other court as a result of such enforcement or execution may be enforced or executed in any such other court of competent jurisdiction (all such courts other than Specified Courts being called herein “Other Courts”), by means of a suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law, provided that in order to enforce or execute any such judgment ordering any payment by the Republic, the Peruvian courts will require that such payments be included in the Budget Law corresponding to the fiscal year on which such payment is to be due (but the Republic will use its best efforts to cause such payment to be included in such Budget Law).

(c) The Republic agrees that CT Corporation, presently located at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 13th floor, New York, New York, will act as its Authorized Agent (the “Authorized Agent”) and that the Republic will maintain at all times an agent with offices in New York to act as its Authorized Agent. The Authorized Agent will receive on behalf of the Republic and its property all writs, process and summonses in any Related Proceeding or any suit, action or proceeding to enforce or execute any judgment referred to in Section 8.6(b) above (a “Related Judgment”) brought against it in such Specified Courts. Failure of the Authorized Agent to give any notice to it of any such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment based thereon. Nothing in the Agreement or the Terms shall in any

39

way be deemed to limit the ability to serve any such writs, process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

(d) The Republic irrevocably consents to and waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding brought in the Specified Courts or to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding brought solely for the purpose of enforcing or executing any Related Judgment in the Specified Courts or Other Courts, and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Related Proceeding or any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

(e) To the extent the Republic or any of its revenues, assets or properties may be entitled to any sovereign or other immunity under any law, the Republic agrees not to claim and to waive such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction. This waiver covers the Republic’s sovereign immunity and immunity from prejudgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and attachment in aid, but does not extend to the attachment of revenues, assets and property of the Republic located in the Republic unless permitted under Peruvian law. Additionally, in accordance with Peruvian law currently in effect, the Republic’s waiver of immunity will not extend to public domain property, such as property (i) used by a diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic; (ii) of a military character and under the control of a military authority or defense agency of the Republic; (iii) public property; (iv) shares of Peruvian public sector entities or shares of Peruvian private sector entities owned or controlled by The Republic or by a Peruvian public sector entity, or revenues collected from the sale of such shares, to the extent such shares or revenues are exempt by Peruvian law from attachment or execution; or (v) funds deposited in the Republic’s accounts held in the Peruvian financial system that constitute public domain property.

The Republic, however, reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (the “Immunities Act”) with respect to actions brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities law. Without an effective waiver of immunity by the Republic with respect to such actions, it would be impossible to obtain a U.S. judgment in such an action against the Republic unless a court were to determine that the Republic is not entitled under the Immunities Act to sovereign immunity with respect to such action. In addition, execution upon property of the Republic located in the United States to enforce a judgment obtained under the Immunities Act may not be possible except in the limited circumstances specified in the Immunities Act. Even if a U.S. judgment could be obtained against the Republic in any such action, it may not be possible to enforce in the Republic a judgment based on such a U.S. judgment. The Republic also consents generally for the purposes of the State Immunity Act of 1978 of the United Kingdom to the giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with any Related Proceeding or Related Judgment.

The Republic has submitted to such jurisdiction as specified above for the benefit of the Holders.

SECTION 9.8. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original regardless of whether delivered in

40

physical of electronic form; but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or by portable document format (PDF) transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture and signature pages for all purposes.

SECTION 9.9. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE REPUBLIC, THE TRUSTEE AND THE HOLDERS BY ACCEPTANCE OF THE DEBT SECURITIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE OR THE DEBT SECURITIES OF ANY SERIES.

SECTION 9.10. Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

SECTION 9.11. No Partnership or Joint Venture. Nothing herein contained shall constitute a partnership between or joint venture by the parties hereto or constitute either party the agent of the other. Neither party shall hold itself out contrary to the terms of this Section 9.12 and neither party shall become liable by any representation, act or omission of the other contrary to the provisions hereof. This Indenture is not for the benefit of any third party and shall not be deemed to give any right or remedy to any such party whether referred to herein or not.

SECTION 9.12. Severability. Any term or provision of this Indenture that is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to reduce the scope, duration or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid, void or unenforceable term or provision.

If the consent solicitation relates to a proposal for a Cross-Series Modification, the solicitation shall include an indication of (x) which Series of Debt Securities will be aggregated for purposes of consenting to that proposal, (y) the Modification Method chosen by the Republic for the consent regarding that proposal, and (z) the identity of the Modifications Calculation Agent, if any.

ARTICLE ELEVEN

MODIFICATIONS

SECTION 11.1. Modifications Not Requiring the Consent of Holders. The Republic and the Trustee may, without the vote or consent of any Holder of Debt Securities of any Series, agree to a Modification of Debt Securities of such Series or to this Indenture as it relates to that Series for the purpose of:

i. adding to the Republic’s covenants for the benefit of the Holders;

ii. surrendering any right or power conferred upon the Republic with respect to Debt Securities of that Series;

iii. securing the Debt Securities of that Series;

iv. curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision in the Debt Securities of that Series or the Indenture;

v. amending the Debt Securities of that Series or this Indenture in any manner which the Republic and the Trustee may determine and which does not materially adversely affect the interests of any Holders of Debt Securities of that Series; or

vi. correcting a manifest error of a formal, minor or technical nature.

Any such technical Modification shall be binding on all Holders of Debt Securities of that Series intended to be affected by the Modification and, unless the Trustee otherwise requires, any such technical Modification shall be notified by the Republic to such Holders of Debt Securities as soon as practicable thereafter.

SECTION 11.2. Single Series Non-Reserve Matter Modifications. Single Series Non-Reserve Matter Modifications proposed by the Republic that are not technical Modifications covered by Section 11.1 may be approved by Holders of Debt Securities (by vote at a meeting of Holders of Debt Securities or by a written action), and future compliance therewith may be waived, with the written consent of the Republic and the affirmative vote (if

43

approved at a meeting of Holders of the Debt Securities) or consent (if approved by a written action) of Holders of more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of that Series.

SECTION 11.3. Reserve Matter Modification Methods. Reserve Matter Modifications proposed by the Republic may be approved by Holders of the Debt Securities (by vote at a Holder of the Debt Securities’ meeting or by a written action) in one of three ways (each, a “Modification Method”):

i. for a Single Series Modification, by the Holders of the Debt Securities of the Series subject to the proposed Modification,

ii. for a proposed Cross-Series Modifications with Single Aggregated Voting, by the Holders of two or more Series of Debt Securities whose votes or written consents will be aggregated for the purpose of determining whether the approval threshold has been met, and

iii. for a proposed Cross-Series Modifications with Two-Tier Voting, by the Holders of two or more Series of Debt Securities whose votes or written consents (x) taken together, must meet an aggregated approval threshold and (y) taken separately for each Series of Debt Securities covered by that proposed Cross-Series Modification, must meet a separate approval threshold.

The Republic shall have the discretion to select a Modification Method for a proposed Reserve Matter Modification and to designate which Series of Debt Securities will be included in the aggregated voting for a proposed Cross-Series Modification; provided, however, that once the Republic selects a Modification Method and designates the Series of Debt Securities that will be subject to a proposed Cross-Series Modification, those elections will be final for purposes of that vote or consent solicitation.

The Republic may simultaneously propose two or more Cross-Series Modifications, each affecting different Series of Debt Securities, or one or more Cross-Series Modifications together with one or more Single Series Reserve Matter Modifications.

SECTION 11.4. Single Series Reserve Matter Modifications. Any Single Series Reserve Matter Modification may be made, and future compliance therewith may be waived, with the written consent of the Republic and the affirmative vote or consent of Holders of more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of that Series.

SECTION 11.5. Cross-Series Modifications with Single Aggregated Voting. Any Cross-Series Modification with Single Aggregated Voting may be made, and future compliance therewith may be waived, with the written consent of the Republic and the affirmative vote or consent of Holders of more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all the Series affected by the proposed Modification (taken in the aggregate).

44

SECTION 11.6. Cross-Series Modifications with Two-Tier Voting. (a) Any Cross-Series Modification with Two-Tier Voting may be made, and future compliance therewith may be waived, with the written consent of the Republic and:

i. the affirmative vote or consent of Holders of more than 66 ²⁄₃% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of all the Series affected by that proposed Modification (taken in the aggregate), and

ii. the affirmative vote or consent of Holders of more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each Series affected by that proposed Modification (taken individually).

(b) For so long as any series of FAA Debt Securities is outstanding, if the Republic certifies to the Trustee and to the fiscal agent under the FAA (for the benefit of the holders of the FAA Debt Securities) that a Cross Series Modification is being sought simultaneously with an FAA Reserve Matter Modification (as defined below), the FAA Debt Securities affected by such FAA Reserve Matter Modification shall be treated as “Series affected by that proposed Modification” as that phrase is used in Section 11.5 and Section 11.6(a)(i) and (ii); provided, however, that if the Republic seeks a Cross-Series Modification with Single Aggregated Voting, the holders of any series of FAA Debt Securities affected by the FAA Reserve Matter Modification shall have been invited to exchange, convert or substitute such FAA Debt Securities for (x) the same new instruments or other consideration as the Holders of Debt Securities of each affected series of Debt Securities for which consent to the Cross Series Modification is sought or (y) new instruments or other consideration from an identical menu of instruments or other consideration as the Holders of Debt Securities of each affected series of Debt Securities for which consent to the Cross Series Modification is sought. It is the intention of this clause that in such circumstances, the votes of the holders of the affected FAA Debt Securities be counted for purposes of the voting thresholds specified in this Article Eleven for the applicable Cross Series Modification as though those FAA Debt Securities had been affected by that Cross Series Modification although it is acknowledged and agreed that the effectiveness of any Modification, as it relates to the FAA Debt Securities, shall be governed exclusively by the terms and conditions of those FAA Debt Securities and by the FAA and shall not be binding upon holders of the FAA Debt Securities unless such FAA Reserve Matter Modification would otherwise have been effective under the FAA; provided, however, that no such Cross Series Modification shall be effective unless such Modification shall have also been effective with respect to the holders of the FAA Debt Securities under the FAA.

For the purpose of this Section 11.6(b):

“FAA Reserve Matter Modification” means any modification to the terms and conditions of one or more series of the FAA Debt Securities, pursuant to Section 7.1 of the FAA;

“FAA Debt Securities” means debt securities authenticated and delivered under the FAA; and

“FAA” means the fiscal agency agreement dated as of dated as of February 6, 2003, between Peru and The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank), as fiscal agent, principal paying agent and registrar, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Fiscal

45

Agency Agreement, dated November 21, 2003 and Amendment No. 2 to the Fiscal Agency Agreement dated October 14, 2004.

SECTION 11.7. Modifications Calculation Agent; Claims Valuation. For the purpose either of administering a vote of Holders of the Debt Securities or seeking the consent of Holders of the Debt Securities to a written action under this Article Eleven, or for calculating the principal amount of the Debt Securities of any Series eligible to participate in such a vote or consent solicitation or that have given consent to a proposed Modification, the Republic may appoint a calculation agent (the “Modifications Calculation Agent”).

The Trustee shall notify the Holders of all Debt Securities eligible to participate in such a vote or consent solicitation of the methodology, as determined by the Modifications Calculation Agent by which the principal amount of each Series of Debt Securities eligible to participate in that vote or consent solicitation will be calculated. This notification shall be given in writing not less than five days prior to the meeting of the Holders of the Debt Securities at which such vote shall occur or, in the case of a consent solicitation for written action, at the time such solicitation is made. The Modifications Calculation Agent shall provide the Trustee with the methodology at least five days (or such other time acceptable to the Trustee) before the Trustee is required to provide notification hereof.

The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any certifications delivered by the Modifications Calculation Agent pursuant to this Section 11.7.

The Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether the Uniformly Applicable condition has been satisfied.

SECTION 11.8. Binding Effect. Any Modification consented to or approved by the Holders of Debt Securities pursuant to this Article Eleven will be conclusive and binding on all Holders of the relevant Series of Debt Securities or all Holders of all Series of Debt Securities affected by a Cross-Series Modification, as the case may be, whether or not they have given such consent, and on all future Holders of those Debt Securities whether or not notation of such Modification is made upon the Debt Securities. Any instrument given by or on behalf of any Holder of a Debt Security in connection with any consent to or approval of any such Modification will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent Holders of that Debt Security.

SECTION 11.9. Information Delivery Requirement. Before soliciting the consent or the vote of any Holder of Debt Securities for a Reserve Matter Modification, the Republic shall provide to the Trustee (for onward distribution to the Holders of the Debt Securities that would be affected by that proposed Modification) the following information:

i. a description of the Republic’s economic and financial circumstances which are, in the Republic’s opinion, relevant to the request for the proposed Modification, a description of the Republic’s existing debts and a description of any broad policy reform program and provisional macroeconomic outlook;

ii. if the Republic shall at the time have entered into an arrangement for financial assistance with multilateral and/or other major creditors or creditor groups and/or an agreement with any such creditors regarding debt relief, (x) a description of any

46

such arrangement or agreement and (y) where permitted under the information disclosure policies of the multilateral or other creditors, as applicable, a copy of the arrangement or agreement;

iii. a description of the Republic’s proposed treatment of external debt instruments that are not affected by the proposed Modification and its intentions with respect to any other major creditor groups; and

iv. if the Republic is then seeking a Reserve Matter Modification affecting any other Series of Debt Securities, a description of that proposed Modification.

SECTION 11.10. Outstanding Debt Securities. Upon request of the Trustee, the Republic shall furnish to the Trustee promptly one or more Officer’s Certificates listing and identifying all Debt Securities, if any, known by the Republic to be owned or held by or for the account of the Republic or any Public Sector Instrumentality; or any corporation, trust or legal entity controlled by the Republic or a Public Sector Instrumentality and, subject to Section 5.1 and Section 5.2, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate or Certificates as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Debt Securities not listed therein are Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.

SECTION 11.11. Certification of Disenfranchised Debt Securities. Prior to any vote on, or consent solicitation for, a Reserve Matter Modification, the Republic shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer specifying any Debt Securities that are deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of Section 11.10.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF DEBT SECURITY]

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE DEBT SECURITIES

1. General. (a) This Debt Security is one of a duly authorized Series of debt securities of the Republic of Peru (the “Republic”), designated as its [            ]% [Title of Debt Securities] due _____ (each Debt Security of this Series a “Debt Security,” and collectively, the “Debt Securities”), and issued or to be issued in one or more Series pursuant to an Indenture dated as of _____, between the Republic and [                    ], as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended from time to time (the “Indenture”). The Holders of the Debt Securities will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office. All capitalized terms used in this Debt Security but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(b) The Debt Securities constitute and will constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated Public External Indebtedness of the Republic for which the full faith and credit of the Republic is pledged. The Debt Securities rank and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all other unsubordinated Public External Indebtedness of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the Debt Securities ratably with payments being made under any other Public External Indebtedness.

(c) The Debt Securities are in fully registered form, without coupons in denominations of [US$[ ] and integral multiples of US$[ ] in excess thereof][other denominations as contemplated by Section 2.4 of the Indenture]. The Debt Securities may be issued in certificated form (the “Certificated Securities”), or may be represented by one or more registered global securities (each, a “Global Security”) held by or on behalf of the Depositary. Certificated Securities will be available only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. The Debt Securities, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 2.6 of the Indenture. Any person in whose name a Debt Security shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be treated at all times, by all persons and for all purposes as the absolute owner of such Debt Security regardless of any notice of ownership, theft, loss or any writing thereon.

(d) For the purposes of this Paragraph 1 and Paragraphs 4 and 5 below, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

“External Indebtedness” means obligations of, or guaranteed, whether by contract, statute or otherwise, by Peru for borrowed money or represented by bonds, debentures, notes or similar instruments denominated or payable, or which, at the option of the holder, may be payable in a currency other than the currency of Peru or by reference to a currency other than the currency of Peru, other than any such obligations originally issued or incurred within Peru.

C-1

“Public External Indebtedness” means any External Indebtedness that (a) is in the form of, or represented by, bonds, notes or other securities that are, or were intended at the time of issuance to be, quoted, listed or traded on any securities exchange or other securities market, including, without limitation, securities for resale under Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or any successor law or regulation of similar effect, and (b) has an original maturity of more than one year or is combined with a commitment so that the original maturity of one year or less may be extended at the option of Peru to a period in excess of one year.

2. Payments. (a) the Republic covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Debt Securities and any other payments to be made by the Republic under the Debt Securities and the Indenture, at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the Debt Securities and the Indenture. Principal of the Debt Securities will be payable against surrender of such Debt Securities at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or, subject to applicable laws and regulations, at the office outside of the United States of a paying agent, by [U.S. dollar] [Other Currency] check drawn on, or by transfer to a [U.S. dollar] [Other Currency] account maintained by the Holder with, a bank located in [New York City] [Other Location]. [If the Debt Security is to bear interest prior to maturity, insert: Payment of interest or principal [(including Additional Amounts (as defined below))]¹ on Debt Securities will be made to the persons in whose name such Debt Securities are registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day (as defined below), notwithstanding the cancellation of such Debt Securities upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that if and to the extent the Republic shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Debt Securities are registered as of a subsequent record date established by the Republic by notice, as provided in Paragraph 11 of these Terms, by or on behalf of the Republic to the Holders of the Debt Securities not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than 10 days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the case where such interest or principal (including Additional Amounts as defined below) is not punctually paid or duly provided for, the Trustee shall have the right to fix such subsequent record date, and, if fixed by the Trustee, such subsequent record date shall supersede any such subsequent record date fixed by the Republic. Payment of interest on Certificated Securities will be made (i) by a [U.S. dollar] [Other Currency] check drawn on a bank in [New York City] [Other Location] mailed to the Holder at such Holder’s registered address or (ii) upon application by the Holder of at least [U.S.$/other currency]_________ in principal amount of Certificated Securities to the Trustee not later than the relevant Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a [U.S. dollar][Other Currency] account maintained by the Holder with a bank in [New York City][Other Location]. Payment of interest on a Global Security will be made (i) by a [U.S. dollar] [Other Currency] check drawn on a bank in [New York City] [Other Location] delivered to the Depositary at its registered address or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Depositary with a bank in [New York City][Other Location]. “Business Day” shall mean any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in New York City (or in the city where the relevant paying or transfer agent is located) are required or authorized by law to close. [If applicable, insert definition of Business Day applicable for Debt Securities denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars.]

¹  To be inserted if the Debt Security provides for the payment of Additional Amounts.

C-2

(b) In any case where the date of payment of the principal of, or interest [(including Additional Amounts)]² on, the Debt Securities shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest [(including Additional Amounts)]³ will be made on the next succeeding Business Day at the relevant place of payment. Such payments will be deemed to have been made on the due date, and no interest on the Debt Securities will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.

(c) Interest will be computed on the basis of [a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months][the actual number of days elapsed in a 365 (or 366) day year].

(d) Any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee or to any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest [(including Additional Amounts)]⁴ on any Debt Security and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall be repaid to or for the account of the Republic by the Trustee or such paying agent, upon the written request of the Republic and, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder of such Debt Security shall thereafter look only to the Republic for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease. The Republic shall cause all returned, unclaimed monies to be held in trust for the relevant Holder of the Debt Security until such time as the claims against the Republic for payment of such amounts shall have prescribed pursuant to Paragraph 13 of these Terms.

[3. Additional Amounts. (a) All payments by the Republic in respect of the Debt Securities shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Republic, or any political subdivision or taxing authority therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Relevant Tax”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Relevant Tax is required by law. In that event, the Republic shall pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”), as may be necessary to ensure that the amounts received by the Holders after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest that would have been receivable in respect of the Debt Securities in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Relevant Tax:

(i) imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Debt Security having some present or former connection with the Republic other than merely being a Holder or beneficial owner of the Debt Security or receiving payments of any nature on the Debt Security or enforcing its rights in respect of the Debt Security;

²  To be inserted if the Debt Security provides for the payment of Additional Amounts.

³  To be inserted if the Debt Security provides for the payment of Additional Amounts.

⁴  To be inserted if the Debt Security provides for the payment of Additional Amounts.

C-3

(ii) imposed by reason of the failure of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Debt Security, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Debt Security, to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Republic of such Holder or beneficial owner or other person, if compliance with the requirement is a precondition to exemption from all or any portion of such withholding or deduction; provided that (x) the Republic or the Republic’s agent has provided the Holders with at least 60 days’ prior written notice of an opportunity to satisfy such a requirement, and (y) in no event shall such Holder’s or beneficial owner’s or other person’s obligation to satisfy such a requirement require such Holder or beneficial owner or other person to provide any materially more onerous information, documents or other evidence than would be required to be provided had such Holder or beneficial owner or other person been required to file Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY; or

(iii) imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Debt Security, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Debt Security, having presented the Debt Security for payment (where such presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Debt Security for payment on any date during such 30-day period.

As used in this Paragraph 3(a), “Relevant Date” in respect of any Debt Security means the date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or, if the full amount of the money payable has not been received by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given to the Holders in the manner described in Paragraph 11 below that such monies have been so received and are available for payment. Any reference to “principal” and/or “interest” hereunder or in the Indenture shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable hereunder.

(b) No Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any payment on a Debt Security to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to the extent the beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner would not have been entitled to receive payment of the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Debt Security.

(c) The Republic shall provide the Trustee with documentation (which may consist of certified copies of such documentation) satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Relevant Taxes in respect of which the Republic has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Holders or the paying agents, as applicable, upon request therefor.

(d) The Republic shall pay any administrative, excise or similar taxes that arise under Peruvian law and are related to the Debt Securities. The Republic shall also indemnify the Holders against any administrative, excise or similar taxes resulting from the

C-4

enforcement of the obligations of the Republic under the Debt Securities following the occurrence of any Event of Default.

(e) The Republic shall pay all stamp, issuance, documentary and other similar taxes or duties, if any, which may be imposed by the Republic, Belgium, Luxembourg, the United Kingdom, the United States of America or any other governmental entity or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the foregoing with respect to the Indenture or the initial issuance of the Debt Securities.

(f) Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in the Debt Securities to principal or interest shall be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amounts which may be payable as described in Paragraph 3(a) above.]⁵

4. Negative Pledge Covenant of Republic. (a) For so long as any Debt Security remains Outstanding or any amount remains unpaid on any Debt Security, the Republic shall comply with the terms of the following covenants:

(a) the Republic may not allow any Security Interest (as defined below) on its assets or revenues as security for any of its Public External Indebtedness (as defined below), unless the Republic’s obligations under the Debt Securities shall be secured equally and ratably with such Public External Indebtedness. The Republic may, however, grant or agree to any Permitted Security Interest (as defined below) on its assets or revenues.

(b) For the purpose of the foregoing and of the Debt Securities generally:

(v) Security Interests securing Public External Indebtedness that, together with all other Public External Indebtedness secured by Security Interests, excluding Public External Indebtedness secured by other permitted Security Interests, does not exceed U.S.$25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, or its equivalent in other currencies;

(vii) Security Interests issued upon surrender or cancellation of the collateralized bonds issued under the Republic’s 1996 financing plan (the Fixed Rate Bonds due 2027, or the “Par Bonds”), or the principal amount of any Public External Indebtedness outstanding as of June 5, 1996, in each case, to the extent that the Security Interest is created to secure Public External Indebtedness on a basis comparable to the Par Bonds;

(viii) Security Interests on shares of, or other assets of, any present or former Peruvian public sector entity created or granted by Peru in connection with, or in anticipation of, the privatization of that entity; and

If one or more of the following events (“Events of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(i) the Republic shall fail to pay any principal on any of the Debt Securities when due, and such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days; or the Republic shall fail to pay interest on any of the Debt Securities when due, and such failure shall continue for a period of 30 days; or

C-6

(ii) the Republic fails to perform any of the obligations under any series of Debt Securities or the Indenture (other than those referred to in clause (i) above), and such failure shall continue for a period of 60 days after written notice has been given to the Republic by the Trustee or Holders representing at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Debt Securities of that Series to remedy such failure;

(iii) the Republic shall fail to make any payment in respect of:

then in each and every such case, upon notice in writing by the Holders (the “Demanding Holders”) (acting individually or together) of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Debt Securities to the Republic, with a copy to the Trustee, of any such Event of Default and its continuance, the Demanding Holders may declare the principal amount of all the Debt Securities due and payable immediately, and the same shall become and shall be due and payable upon the date that such written notice is received by or on behalf of the Republic, unless prior to such date all Events of Default in respect of all the Debt Securities shall have been cured; provided that if, at any time after the principal of the Debt Securities shall have been so declared due and payable, and before the sale of any property pursuant to any judgment or decree for the payment of monies due which shall have been obtained or entered in connection with the Debt Securities, the Republic shall pay or shall deposit (or cause to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal upon all the Debt Securities which shall have become due otherwise than solely by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent permitted by law, and on such principal of each Debt Security at the rate of interest specified herein, to the date of such payment of interest or principal) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other documented expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred, and all advances made for documented expenses and legal fees, reasonably incurred by the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and if any and all Events of Default hereunder, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Debt Securities which shall have become due solely by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, and in every such case, the Holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities then Outstanding, by written notice to the Republic and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of all of the Holders, waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Actions by Holders pursuant to this Paragraph 5 need not be taken at a meeting pursuant to Paragraph 6 hereof. Actions by the Trustee and the Holders pursuant to this Paragraph 5 are subject to Article Four of the Indenture.

6. Holders’ Meetings and Written Action. The Indenture sets forth the provisions for the convening of meetings of Holders of Debt Securities and actions taken by written consent of the Holders of Debt Securities.

7. Replacement, Exchange and Transfer of the Debt Securities. (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, in case any Debt Security shall become mutilated, defaced or be apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, the Republic in its discretion may execute, and upon the request of the Republic, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Debt Security bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Debt Security, or in lieu of and in substitution for the apparently destroyed, lost or stolen Debt Security. In every case, the applicant for a substitute Debt Security shall furnish to the Republic and to the Trustee such security or

C-8

indemnity as may be required by each of them to indemnify, defend and to save each of them and any agent of the Republic or the Trustee harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss, theft or evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Debt Security and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute Debt Security, the Holder of such Debt Security, if so requested by the Republic, shall pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute Debt Security.

(b) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to Paragraph 7(e) hereof, a Certificated Security or Securities may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Securities in different authorized denominations and a beneficial interest in the Global Security may be exchanged for Certificated Securities in authorized denominations or for a beneficial interest in another Global Security by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Security or Securities for exchange at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request for the exchange. Certificated Securities will only be issued in exchange for interests in a Global Security pursuant to Section 2.5(e) of the Indenture. The exchange of the Debt Securities will be made by the Trustee.

(c) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to Paragraph 7(e) hereof, a Certificated Security may be transferred in whole or in part (in an amount equal to the authorized denomination or any integral multiple thereof) by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Certificated Security for transfer at the Corporate Trust Office accompanied by an executed instrument of transfer substantially as set forth in Exhibit F to the Indenture. The registration of transfer of the Debt Securities will be made by the Trustee.

(d) The costs and expenses of effecting any exchange, transfer or registration of transfer pursuant to this Paragraph 7 will be borne by the Republic, except for the expenses of delivery (if any) not made by regular mail and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge or insurance charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, which will be borne by the Holder of the Debt Security. Registration of the transfer of a Debt Security by the Trustee shall be deemed to be the acknowledgment of such transfer on behalf of the Republic.

(e) The Trustee may decline to accept any request for an exchange or registration of transfer of any Debt Security during the period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Debt Securities.

8. Trustee. For a description of the duties and the immunities and rights of the Trustee under the Indenture, reference is made to the Indenture, and the obligations of the Trustee to the Holder hereof are subject to such immunities and rights.

9. Paying Agents; Transfer Agents; Registrar. The Republic has initially appointed the paying agents, transfer agents and registrar listed at the foot of this Debt Security. The Republic may at any time appoint additional or other paying agents, transfer agents and registrars and terminate the appointment of those or any paying agents, transfer agents and registrar, provided that while the Debt Securities are Outstanding the Republic will maintain in

C-9

[a Western European city] [The City of New York] (i) a paying agent, (ii) an office or agency where the Debt Securities may be presented for exchange, transfer and registration of transfer as provided in the Indenture and (iii) a registrar; provided that the registrar shall not be in the United Kingdom. In addition, if and for so long as the Debt Securities are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of such Exchange so require, the Republic will maintain a paying agent and transfer agent in Luxembourg. Notice of any such termination or appointment and of any change in the office through which any paying agent, transfer agent or registrar will act will be promptly given in the manner described in Paragraph 11 hereof.

10. Enforcement. Except as provided in Section 4.6 of the Indenture, no Holder of any Debt Securities of any Series shall have any right by virtue of or by availing itself of any provision of the Indenture or of the Debt Securities of such Series to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to the Indenture or of the Debt Securities, or for any other remedy hereunder or under the Debt Securities, unless (a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of default and of the continuance thereof with respect to such Series of Debt Securities, (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of Debt Securities of such Series shall have made specific written request to the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have provided to the Trustee such indemnity or other security as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby and (c) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and provision of indemnity or other security, shall have failed to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.9 of the Indenture, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by every Holder of Debt Securities of a Series with every other Holder of Debt Securities of such Series and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself of any provision of the Indenture or of the Debt Securities to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder of Debt Securities of such Series or to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under the Indenture or under the Debt Securities of such Series, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders of Debt Securities of such Series. For the protection and enforcement of this Paragraph 10, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

11. Notices. The Republic will mail any notices to the Holders of the Debt Securities at their registered addresses as reflected in the books and records of the Trustee. The Republic will consider any mailed notice to have been given five Business Days after it has been sent. The Republic will also publish notices to the Holders (a) in a leading newspaper having general circulation in New York City and London (which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times, respectively) and (b) if and so long as the Debt Securities are listed on the Euro MTF market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the rules of the exchange so require, in a leading newspaper having general circulation in Luxembourg (which is expected to be d’Wort—Luxemburger Wort für Wahrheit und Recht) and on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange at xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xx. If publication in a leading newspaper in Luxembourg is not practicable, the Republic will publish such notices in a leading English language daily newspaper with general circulation in Europe. The Republic will consider any published notice to be given on the date of its first publication.

C-10

12. Further Issues of Debt Securities. The Republic may from time to time, without the consent of Holders of the Debt Securities, create and issue additional Debt Securities having the same Terms as the Debt Securities in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and first payment on the Debt Securities; provided, however, that any additional Debt Securities subsequently issued that are not fungible with the previously Outstanding Debt Securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall have a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number from the previously Outstanding Debt Securities. Additional Debt Securities issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single Series with the previously Outstanding Debt Securities.

13. Prescription. To the extent permitted by law, claims against the Republic for the payment of principal of, or interest or other amounts due on, the Debt Securities [(including Additional Amounts)]⁶ will become void unless made within four years of the date on which that payment first became due.

14. Authentication. This Debt Security shall not become valid or obligatory until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been duly signed by the Trustee or its agent.

15. Governing Law. (a) The Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Debt Security will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [the State of New York][; provided, however, that Article Ten and Eleven (and the corresponding Terms of the Debt Securities) shall in all cases be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York]⁷.

(b) The Republic irrevocably consents to and waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any Related Proceeding brought in the Specified Courts or to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding brought solely for the purpose of enforcing or executing any Related Judgment in the Specified Courts or Other Courts, and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Related Proceeding or any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court.

(e) To the extent the Republic or any of its revenues, assets or properties may be entitled to any sovereign or other immunity under any law, the Republic agrees not to claim and to waive such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction. This waiver covers the Republic’s sovereign immunity and immunity from prejudgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and attachment in aid, but does not extend to the attachment of revenues, assets and property of the Republic located in the Republic unless permitted under Peruvian law. Additionally, in accordance with Peruvian law currently in effect, the Republic’s waiver of immunity will not extend to public domain property, such as property (i) used by a diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic; (ii) of a military character and under the control of a military authority or defense agency of the Republic; (iii) public property; (iv) shares of Peruvian public sector entities or shares of Peruvian private sector entities owned or controlled

⁶  To be inserted if the Debt Security provides for the payment of Additional Amounts.

⁷  To be inserted if the Debt Security will not be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

C-11

by The Republic or by a Peruvian public sector entity, or revenues collected from the sale of such shares, to the extent such shares or revenues are exempt by Peruvian law from attachment or execution; or (v) funds deposited in the Republic’s accounts held in the Peruvian financial system that constitute public domain property.

The Republic, however, reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 (the “Immunities Act”) with respect to actions brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities law. Without an effective waiver of immunity by the Republic with respect to such actions, it would be impossible to obtain a U.S. judgment in such an action against the Republic unless a court were to determine that the Republic is not entitled under the Immunities Act to sovereign immunity with respect to such action. In addition, execution upon property of the Republic located in the United States to enforce a judgment obtained under the Immunities Act may not be possible except in the limited circumstances specified in the Immunities Act. Even if a U.S. judgment could be obtained against the Republic in any such action, it may not be possible to enforce in the Republic a judgment based on such a U.S. judgment. The Republic also consents generally for the purposes of the State Immunity Act of 1978 of the United Kingdom to the giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with any Related Proceeding or Related Judgment.

The Republic has submitted to such jurisdiction as specified above for the benefit of the Holders.

16. Indemnification for Foreign Exchange Fluctuations. The obligation of Republic to any Holder under the Debt Securities that has obtained a court judgment affecting the Debt Securities shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which the Debt Security is denominated (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder of any amount in the Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that day, on the first Business Day on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder in the Agreement Currency, the Republic agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to pay the difference, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to or for the account of the Republic such excess, provided that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a default by the Republic in its obligations hereunder has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations.

17. Warranty of the Republic. Subject to Xxxxxxxxx 00, Xxxxxxxx hereby certifies and warrants that all acts, conditions and things required to be done and performed and to have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Debt Security and to constitute the same legal, valid and binding obligations of Republic enforceable in accordance with their terms, have been done and performed and have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.

C-12

18. Definitive Headings. The descriptive headings appearing in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not alter, limit or define the provisions hereof.

19. Modifications. (a) Any Modification to the Debt Securities or the Indenture insofar as it affects the Debt Securities shall be made in accordance with Article Ten and Article Eleven of the Indenture.

(b) Any Modification pursuant to this Paragraph 19 will be conclusive and binding on all Holders of the Debt Securities, and on all future Holders of the Debt Securities whether or not notation of such Modification is made upon the Debt Securities. Any instrument given by or on behalf of any Holder of a Debt Security in connection with any consent to or approval of any such Modification will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent Holders of that Debt Security.

(c) For purposes of this Debt Security,
