Common use of Consent to use of Prospectus Clause in Contracts

Consent to use of Prospectus. The Issuer consents to the use of the Base Prospectus and these Final Terms by all financial interme- diaries (general consent). General consent for the subsequent resale or final placement of Securities by the financial intermediaries is given in relation to the Offer State(s) during the Offer Period during which subsequent resale or final placement of the Securities can be made, provided however, that the Base Prospectus (and/or Succeeding Base Prospectus) is still valid according to Article 12 of the Prospectus Regulation. In the case of an Offer Period which exceeds the duration of the validity of the Base Prospectus, the subsequent resale and final placement of the Securities by financial inter- mediaries can be made during the period in which a Succeeding Base Prospectus exists. In this case, the consent to the use of the Base Prospectus also applies to the use of the Succeeding Base Prospec- tus.
