Gli Strumenti Finanziari costituiranno impegni non subordinati e non garantiti del relativo Emittente, avranno tutti pari grado e, fatta eccezione per taluni impegni cui la legge applicabile assegna priorità, saranno di pari grado rispetto a tutti gli altri impegni presenti e futuri in essere non garantiti e non subordinati del relativo Emittente.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari potranno essere emessi e trasferiti esclusivamente in forma registrata e non certificata tramite i sistemi di negoziazione di titoli dematerializzati gestiti da CRESTCo Limited, noto come CREST, e Monte

Le Tranche di Strumenti Finanziari potranno essere rappresentate da un warrant globale o da un certificato globale (in entrambi i casi, il "Titolo Globale") depositato alla data di emissione (la "Data di Emissione") specificata nelle relative Condizioni Definitive presso Euroclear Francia. Gli Strumenti Finanziari in forma definitiva non saranno emessi. Prova della proprietà degli Strumenti Finanziari accentrati presso Euroclear Francia sarà data dalle iscrizioni nel registro dei Titolari dei Conti presso Euroclear Francia.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari potranno inoltre essere emessi e trasferiti da un altro sistema o da sistemi di liquidazione supplementari eventualmente specificati nel relativo Regolamento. Gli Strumenti Finanziari saranno costituiti da, e beneficeranno di, un Deed of Covenant sottoscritto da ciascuno degli Emittenti, copie del quale saranno disponibili in visione, durante il normale orario di lavoro, presso gli uffici designati degli Agenti del Programma.

Nessun trasferimento di Strumenti Finanziari sarà valido a meno che e fintantoché non venga registrato nel relativo Registro dei Portatori. Uno Strumento Finanziario può essere registrato soltanto a nome di, e trasferito unicamente a, un soggetto di cui sia fornito il nome (o soggetti, non superiori a quattro).

Esercizio degli Strumenti Finanziari:

Fatte salve le disposizioni più dettagliate del Regolamento e delle Condizioni Definitive rilevanti, il Portatore di ogni Strumento Finanziario avrà diritto a ricevere un importo in contanti (l'"Importo di Liquidazione") dall'Emittente o dal Garante/dai Garanti, a seconda del caso, calcolato in conformità al Regolamento e alle relative Condizioni Definitive.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari saranno individuati nelle Condizioni Definitive applicabili come di "Tipo americano", "Tipo europeo" o "Tipo bermudiano". Gli Strumenti Finanziari di Tipo americano saranno esercitabili in qualsiasi Giorno Lavorativo durante un determinato Periodo di Esercizio, quelli di Tipo europeo saranno esercitabili in una determinata Data di Esercizio, mentre quelli di Tipo bermudiano saranno esercitabili in una qualsiasi di due o più Date di Esercizio specificate. Gli Strumenti Finanziari identificati nelle Condizioni Definitive come Strumenti Finanziari a Esercizio Multiplo, potranno essere esercitati una volta in ciascuna Data di Esercizio specificata.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari danno origine a opzioni esercitabili dal relativo Portatore. Nessun Portatore ha l'obbligo di esercitare i propri Strumenti Finanziari né, in assenza di tale esercizio e salvo quanto stabilito in seguito, il relativo Emittente o, a seconda del caso, il/i relativo/i Garante/Garanti hanno alcun obbligo di pagare un qualsiasi importo in ordine agli Strumenti Finanziari. In caso di esercizio di Strumenti Finanziari, il Portatore è tenuto a certificare che gli stessi non vengono esercitati da parte di o per conto di un soggetto statunitense o un soggetto che risieda negli Stati Uniti e che detti Strumenti Finanziari non sono posseduti a beneficio di un soggetto statunitense

o da un soggetto residente negli Stati Uniti.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari possono essere esercitati tramite la consegna di una Dichiarazione di Esercizio debitamente compilata da parte del Portatore i) all'Agente del Programma CREST, in relazione a Strumenti Finanziari detenuti in CREST; ii) all'Agente del Programma Francese e al Titolare del Conto presso Euroclear Francia presso il quale sono detenuti gli Strumenti Finanziari del Portatore, nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari detenuti in Euroclear Francia; o iii) all'Agente del Programma Italiano, nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari detenuti in Monte Titoli oppure, se la facoltà di esercizio automatico è prevista dal Regolamento, tale Strumento Finanziario sarà automaticamente esercitato nella Data di Esercizio o Data di Esercizio Finale, a seconda del caso.

Nelle relative Condizioni Definitive , l'Emittente rilevante può specificare un numero massimo o minimo di Strumenti Finanziari esercitabili in qualsiasi data. Nel caso di esercizio di Strumenti Finanziari, vi sarà un periodo di sfasamento tra il momento in cui un Portatore fornisce le istruzioni per l'esercizio e il momento in cui viene determinato l'Importo di Liquidazione applicabile. Durante detto periodo il valore del Sottostante può variare in misura significativa; dette variazioni potrebbero diminuire l'Importo di Liquidazione relativamente agli Strumenti Finanziari esercitati e di conseguenza tale importo potrebbe essere pari a zero.

Garanzie: Il pagamento puntuale di tutte le somme di volta in volta dovute da GSJ in ordine agli Strumenti Finanziari emessi dalla stessa sono incondizionatamente e irrevocabilmente garantiti da GSE in qualità di Garante in conformità a un Atto di garanzia datato 26 marzo 2007. Inoltre, il pagamento puntuale di tutte le somme di volta in volta dovute da GSI, relativamente agli Strumenti Finanziari da esso emessi, e da GSE relativamente agli Strumenti Finanziari emessi o garantiti dalla stessa sono incondizionatamente e irrevocabilmente garantiti da GSGI in conformità a un atto di garanzia datato 26 marzo 2007. Gli impegni di ogni Garante ai sensi della Garanzia rappresentano impegni diretti, non subordinati, non garantiti e irrevocabili del relativo Garante e hanno pari grado rispetto a tutti gli altri impegni diretti, non subordinati e non garantiti dello stesso.

Illegalità: Qualora il relativo Emittente stabilisca che il suo esercizio di Strumenti Finanziari sia diventato del tutto o in parte illegittimo o impraticabile per qualsiasi motivo, tale Emittente ha facoltà di cancellare detti Strumenti Finanziari e, se consentito dalla legge applicabile, pagare al portatore degli stessi un importo pari al loro equo valore di mercato.

Eventi di Turbativa:

Il Regolamento e le Condizioni Definitive relativi a ciascuna Serie di Strumenti Finanziari specificheranno gli eventuali Eventi di Turbativa dei Pagamenti, della Liquidazione e del Mercato (ove rilevanti) applicabili a detti Strumenti Finanziari. Qualora l'Agente per il Calcolo stabilisca a propria

discrezione il verificarsi di uno di tali eventi, ciò potrebbe comportare il differimento per un determinato periodo della Data di Esercizio, della Data di Valutazione e/o della Data di Liquidazione. L'Agente per il Calcolo potrebbe inoltre avere diritto a valorizzare il relativo Sottostante sulla base di una stima, da lui effettuata in buona fede, del valore che detto Sottostante avrebbe avuto se non si fosse verificato l'evento di turbativa.

Correzioni: In conformità alle Condizioni, in seguito al verificarsi di taluni eventi specificati relativamente a un qualsiasi Sottostante al quale si riferisce una Serie di Strumenti Finanziari, l'Agente per il Calcolo può avere diritto ad apportare correzioni a detto Sottostante o a sostituirlo a sua discrezione.

Regime Fiscale: Salvo quanto diversamente stabilito nel relativo Regolamento, i Portatori sono tenuti al versamento di imposte, ivi inclusa la ritenuta d'acconto, dovute in relazione agli Strumenti Finanziari.

Quotazione: Se specificato nelle relative Condizioni Definitive, può essere presentata domanda di ammissione degli Strumenti Finanziari emessi secondo il Programma al listino ufficiale della Financial Services Authority e alla negoziazione sul mercato regolamentato della Borsa di Londra per Strumenti Finanziari quotati. Gli Strumenti Finanziari possono inoltre essere quotati su qualsiasi altra borsa o possono non essere quotati. Le relative Condizioni Definitive in ordine a ciascuna Serie di Strumenti Finanziari dovranno specificare l'eventuale borsa sulla quale gli stessi saranno quotati.

Legge Applicabile: Gli Strumenti Finanziari saranno creati ai sensi della Legge dell'Inghilterra e disciplinati dalla stessa.

Vincoli alla Vendita:

In alcune giurisdizioni, tra cui Stati Uniti e Jersey, esistono vincoli sulla vendita di Strumenti Finanziari e sulla distribuzione del materiale di offerta. Ulteriori vincoli, ivi inclusi quelli sul trasferimento, possono essere applicabili in relazione a una particolare Tranche di Strumenti Finanziari e saranno riportati nelle relative Condizioni Definitive.

Fattori di rischio: Acquistando Strumenti Finanziari, ciascun Portatore dichiara e garantisce implicitamente agli Emittenti e al/ai relativo/i Garante/i, e suppone che la complessità e i rischi inerenti agli Strumenti Finanziari siano adeguati ai propri obiettivi. Un soggetto dovrebbe negoziare Strumenti Finanziari soltanto qualora comprenda la natura delle relative operazioni e la portata della propria esposizione a una perdita potenziale. I potenziali acquirenti di Strumenti Finanziari dovrebbero avere esperienza in opzioni e in operazioni su opzioni, dovrebbero comprendere i rischi di operazioni che coinvolgono gli Strumenti Finanziari rilevanti e dovrebbero prendere una decisione di investimento soltanto dopo un attento esame, insieme ai propri consulenti, dell'idoneità di detti Strumenti Finanziari alla luce della propria specifica situazione finanziaria, di tutte le informazioni contenute nel presente documento unitamente alle informazioni riguardanti gli Strumenti Finanziari e lo specifico Sottostante al quale il valore dei relativi Strumenti Finanziari può essere

connesso che sono contenute nelle Condizioni Definitive rilevanti.

Le operazioni in Strumenti Finanziari fuori borsa possono comportare rischi maggiori rispetto a operazioni in Strumenti Finanziari negoziati in borsa.

Il mercato per gli Strumenti Finanziari potrebbe essere limitato e ciò potrebbe avere un impatto negativo sul loro valore e/o sulla capacità di un Portatore di alienare gli stessi. Né gli Emittenti né il Garante hanno direttamente o indirettamente rilasciato, e non rilasciano, a un qualsiasi potenziale acquirente di Strumenti Finanziari, alcuna garanzia relativamente ai meriti o alla performance degli Strumenti Finanziari. Gli Emittenti non hanno inoltre alcun obbligo né si impegnano in alcun modo a costituire un mercato negli o a riacquistare gli Strumenti Finanziari.

Gli Strumenti Finanziari implicano un livello elevato di rischio che può includere i rischi di tassi di interesse, rischi societari, di mercato, di cambio, di valore temporale e/o rischi politici. I potenziali acquirenti di Strumenti Finanziari dovrebbero essere consapevoli del fatto che i loro Strumenti Finanziari potrebbero non avere alcun valore alla loro scadenza o al loro esercizio e pertanto dovrebbero essere preparati a sostenere una perdita totale del prezzo di acquisto dei loro Strumenti Finanziari. Tale rischio riflette la natura di uno Strumento Finanziario quale attività il cui valore può diminuire nel tempo e che può essere privo di valore al momento della scadenza.

Considerazioni sulle leggi del Jersey:

Gli Strumenti Finanziari descritti nel presente Prospetto di Base non costituiscono un fondo comune di investimento ai fini della Legge sui Fondi Comuni di Investimento (Jersey) del 1988 e successivi emendamenti, in quanto essi sono prodotti di investimento concepiti per investitori finanziariamente esperti, con una conoscenza specifica e un'esperienza nell'investimento, in grado di valutare completamente i rischi implicati nell'effettuare simili investimenti e che posseggono risorse finanziarie sufficienti a consentire loro di sopportare eventuali perdite che potrebbero subire in conseguenza di simili investimenti. La Commissione per i Servizi Finanziari del Jersey (Jersey Financial Services Commission) non ritiene che questi investimenti siano adeguati a qualsiasi altro tipo di investitori.

Un qualsiasi soggetto che intenda investire negli Strumenti Finanziari descritti nel presente Prospetto di Base dovrebbe consultare i propri consulenti legali, fiscali, contabili e gli altri consulenti indipendenti e assicurarsi di avere completamente compreso tutti i rischi associati a un simile investimento e di avere risorse finanziarie sufficienti a sopportare una qualsiasi perdita che potrebbe derivare dallo stesso.
