RISK FACTORS

Prospective purchasers of the Securities offered hereby should consider carefully, among other things and in light of their financial circumstances and investment objectives, all of the information in this Base Prospectus and, in particular, the risk factors set forth below (which each Issuer, in its reasonable opinion, believes represents or may represent the risk factors known to it which may affect such Issuer's ability to fulfil its obligations under the Securities) in making an investment decision. Investors may lose the value of their entire investment in certain circumstances.

Terms used in this section and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in the relevant Conditions.

Risks Relating to the Bank and its Operations

See the section entitled "Risk Factors" contained on pages 5 to 10 of the Information Statement which is incorporated by reference in this Base Prospectus.

Risk Factors Relating to BNPP B.V.

BNPP B.V. is not an operating company. BNPP B.V.'s sole business is the raising and borrowing of money by issuing Securities or other obligations. BNPP B.V. has, and will have, no assets other than such fees (as agreed) payable to it, or other assets acquired by it, in each case in connection with the issue of Securities or entry into other obligations relating to the Programme from time to time. The net proceeds from each issue of Securities issued by the Issuer will become part of the general funds of BNPP B.V. BNPP B.V. may use such proceeds to maintain positions in options or futures contracts or other hedging instruments ("Hedging Agreements"). The ability of BNPP B.V. to meet its obligations under Securities issued by it will depend on the receipt by it of payments under the relevant Hedging Agreements. Consequently, BNPP B.V. is exposed to the ability of counterparties in respect of such Hedging Agreements to perform their obligations under such Hedging Agreements.

RISK FACTORS RELATING TO SECURITIES

General

The Securities involve a high degree of risk, which may include price risks associated with the Underlying Reference (as defined below), among others, interest rate, foreign exchange, inflation, time value and political risks. Prospective purchasers of Securities should recognise that their Securities may expire worthless or be redeemed for no value. Purchasers should be prepared to sustain a total loss of the purchase price of their Securities. See "Certain Factors Affecting the Value and Trading Price of Securities" below. Prospective purchasers of Securities should be experienced with respect to options and option transactions, should understand the risks of transactions involving the relevant Securities and should reach an investment decision only after careful consideration, with their advisers, of the suitability of such Securities in light of their particular financial circumstances, the information set forth herein and the information regarding the relevant Securities and the particular underlying index (or basket of indices), share (or basket of shares), GDR or ADR (or basket of GDRs and/or ADRs), debt instrument (or basket of debt instruments), currency (or basket of currencies), commodity (or basket of commodities), inflation index (or basket of inflation indices), fund share or unit (or basket of fund shares or units), or other basis of reference to which the value of the relevant Securities may relate, as specified in the applicable Final Terms (such reference being the "Underlying Reference"). The Issuer may also issue Securities linked to the credit of a specified entity (or entities) (each such entity a "Reference Entity" and, where the context admits, each an "Underlying Reference").

The risk of the loss of some or all of the purchase price of a Security upon expiration or redemption means that, in order to recover and realise a return upon his or her investment, a purchaser of a Security must generally be correct about the direction, timing and magnitude of an anticipated change in the value of the Underlying Reference or Credit Risk of the Reference Entity ("Entities") which may be specified in the applicable Final Terms. Assuming all other factors are held

constant, the lower the value of a Security and the shorter the remaining term of a Warrant to expiration or a Certificate to redemption, the greater the risk that purchasers of such Securities will lose all or part of their investment. With respect to Certificates and European-style Warrants, the only means through which a Holder can realise value from the Warrant or Certificate, as the case may be, prior to its Exercise Date or Redemption Date in relation to such Warrant or Certificate, as the case may be, is to sell it at its then market price in an available secondary market. See "Possible Illiquidity of the Securities in the Secondary Market" below.

Fluctuations in the value of the relevant index or basket of indices will affect the value of Index Securities or Inflation Index Securities. Fluctuations in the price of the relevant share or value of the basket of shares will affect the value of Share Securities. Fluctuations in the price of the relevant GDR and/or ADR or value of the basket of GDRs and/or ADRs will affect the value of GDR/ADR Securities. Fluctuations in the price or yield of the relevant debt instrument or value of the basket of debt instruments will affect the value of Debt Securities. Fluctuations in the rates of exchange between the relevant currencies will affect the value of Currency Securities. Fluctuations in the value of the relevant inflation index or basket of inflation indices will affect the value of Inflation Securities. Fluctuations in the value of the relevant fund share or units or basket of fund shares or units will affect the value of the Fund Securities. Fluctuations in the creditworthiness of the relevant Reference Entity or Reference Entities will affect the value of the Credit Linked Securities. Also, due to the character of the particular market on which a debt instrument is traded, the absence of last sale information and the limited availability of quotations for such debt instrument may make it difficult for many investors to obtain timely, accurate data for the price or yield of such debt instrument. Fluctuations in the value of the relevant commodity or basket of commodities will affect the value of Commodity Securities. In the case of Hybrid Securities the Underlying Reference in respect of which is any combination of such indices, shares, debt, currencies, commodities, inflation indices or any other asset class or type, fluctuations in the value of any one or more of such Underlying References will correspondingly affect the value of Hybrid Securities. Purchasers of Securities risk losing their entire investment if the value of the relevant Underlying Basis of Reference does not move in the anticipated direction.

Each Issuer may issue several issues of Securities relating to various Underlying References. However, no assurance can be given that the relevant Issuer will issue any Securities other than the Securities to which a particular Final Terms relates. At any given time, the number of Securities outstanding may be substantial. Securities provide opportunities for investment and pose risks to investors as a result of fluctuations in the value of the underlying investment. In general, certain of the risks associated with Warrants are similar to those generally applicable to other options or warrants of private corporate issuers. Warrants or certificates on shares, debt instruments or fund shares or units are priced primarily on the basis of the value of underlying securities, whilst Currency and Commodity Securities are priced primarily on the basis of present and expected values of the reference currency (or basket of currencies) or commodity (or basket of commodities) specified in the applicable Final Terms.

Claims Against the Underlying Reference

The Securities do not represent a claim against any Underlying Reference (or any issuer, sponsor, manager or other connected person in respect of an Underlying Reference) and Holders will not have any right of recourse under the Securities to any such Underlying Reference (or any issuer, sponsor, manager or other connected person in respect of an Underlying Reference). The Securities are not in any way sponsored, endorsed or promoted by any issuer, sponsor, manager or other connected person in respect of an Underlying Reference and such entities have no obligation to take into account the consequences of their actions on any Holders.

Securities are Unsecured Obligations

The Securities are unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the relevant Issuer and will rank pari passu with themselves. Each issue of Securities issued by BNPP B.V. will be guaranteed by BNPP pursuant to the English Guarantee, in the case of English Law Securities, or the French Law Guarantee, in the case of French Law Securities. The obligations of BNPP under the Guarantees are unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of BNPP and will rank pari passu with all its other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations, subject as may from time to time be mandatory under French law.

Certain Factors Affecting the Value and Trading Price of Securities

The trading price of the Securities is affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, the price or level of the relevant Underlying Reference or Underlying References, the time to expiration or redemption of the Securities and the actual or implied volatility and the correlation risk of the relevant Underlying Reference or Underlying References. Such factors may mean that the trading price of the Securities is below the Cash Settlement Amount or the value of the Entitlement, as applicable.

Before exercising (in the case of Warrants) or selling Securities, Holders should carefully consider, among other things,

(a) the trading price of the Securities, (b) the value and volatility of the Underlying Reference as specified in the applicable Final Terms, (c) the time remaining to expiration or redemption, as the case may be, (d) in the case of Cash Settled Securities, the probable range of Cash Settlement Amounts, (e) any change(s) in interim interest rates and dividend yields, if applicable, (f) any change(s) in currency exchange rates, (g) the depth of the market or liquidity of the Underlying Reference as specified in the applicable Final Terms and (h) any related transaction costs.

Meetings of Holders

The Terms and Conditions of the Securities contain provisions for calling meetings of Holders to consider matters affecting their interests generally. These provisions permit defined majorities to bind all Holders including Holders who did not attend and vote at the relevant meeting and Holders who voted in a manner contrary to the majority.

The Cash Settlement Amount or Redemption Amount May Be Less than the Value of an Investment in the Securities

Each Holder may receive a Cash Settlement Amount or Redemption Amount and/or physical delivery of the Entitlement the aggregate value of which may be less than the value of the Holder's investment in the relevant Securities. In certain circumstances Holders may lose the entire value of their investment.

Possible Illiquidity of the Securities in the Secondary Market

It is very difficult to predict the price at which Securities will trade in the secondary market or whether such market will be liquid or illiquid. The Issuer may, but is not obliged to, list Securities on a stock exchange (application has been made to list and admit the Securities described herein for trading on Euronext Amsterdam and application may be made to list Securities on other stock exchanges). Also, to the extent Securities of a particular issue are exercised or redeemed, the number of Securities of such issue outstanding will decrease, resulting in a diminished liquidity for the remaining Securities of such issue. A decrease in the liquidity of an issue of Securities may cause, in turn, an increase in the volatility associated with the price of such issue of Securities.

Each Issuer and any Manager may, but is not so obliged, at any time purchase Securities at any price in the open market or by tender or private offer/treaty. Any Securities so purchased may be held or resold or surrendered for cancellation as further described herein. A Manager may, but is not obliged to, be a market-maker for an issue of Securities and may cease to do so at any time. Even if a Manager is a market-maker for an issue of Securities, the secondary market for such Securities may be limited. In addition, affiliates of each Issuer (including the relevant Manager as referred to

above) may purchase Securities at the time of their initial distribution and from time to time thereafter. There may be no secondary market for the Securities and to the extent that an issue of Securities is or becomes illiquid, an investor may have to exercise or wait until redemption of such Securities, as applicable, to realise greater value than its then trading value.

Minimum Trading Amount

Investors should note that the Securities may have a minimum trading amount. In such cases, if, following the transfer of any Securities, a Holder holds fewer Securities than the specified minimum trading amount, such Holder will not be permitted to transfer their remaining Securities prior to expiration or redemption, as applicable, without first purchasing enough additional Securities in order to hold the minimum trading amount.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

Certain entities within the Group or its affiliates (including, if applicable, any Manager) may also engage in trading activities (including hedging activities) relating to the Underlying Reference or Reference Entity and other instruments or derivative products based on or relating to the Underlying Reference or Reference Entity of any Securities for their proprietary accounts or for other accounts under their management. BNPP B.V., BNPP and their affiliates (including, if applicable, any Manager) may also issue other derivative instruments in respect of the Underlying Reference. BNPP B.V., BNPP and their affiliates (including, if applicable, any Manager) may also act as underwriter in connection with future offerings of shares or other securities relating to an issue of Securities or may act as financial adviser to certain companies or companies whose shares or other securities are included in a basket or in a commercial banking capacity for such companies. In addition BNPP B.V., BNPP and their affiliates (including, if applicable, any Manager) may act in a number of different capacities in relation to an underlying index, including, but not limited to, issuer of the constituents of the index, index sponsor or calculation agent. Such activities could present certain conflicts of interest, could influence the prices of such shares or other securities and could adversely affect the value of such Securities.

Because the Calculation Agent (as defined below) may be an affiliate of the Issuer or the Guarantor, potential conflicts of interest may exist between the Calculation Agent and holders of the Securities, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the Calculation Agent must make, including whether a Market Disruption Event, a Settlement Disruption Event or Credit Event (each, as defined below) has occurred. The Calculation Agent is obligated to carry out its duties and functions as Calculation Agent in good faith and using its reasonable judgment. Furthermore, the Calculation Agent will not act as a fiduciary or as an advisor to the Holders in respect of its duties as Calculation Agent.

In the case of Securities listed on the Italian Stock Exchange, any additional conflicts of interest with respect to such Securities will be specified in the applicable Final Terms.

Certain Considerations Regarding Purchasing Securities as Xxxxxx

Prospective purchasers intending to purchase Securities to hedge against the market risk associated with investing in the Underlying Reference which may be specified in the applicable Final Terms should recognise the complexities of utilising Securities in this manner. For example, the value of the Securities may not exactly correlate with the value of the Underlying Reference which may be specified in the applicable Final Terms. Due to fluctuating supply and demand for the Securities, there is no assurance that their value will correlate with movements of the Underlying Reference which may be specified in the applicable Final Terms. For these reasons, among others, it may not be possible to purchase or liquidate securities in a portfolio at the prices used to calculate the value of any relevant Underlying Reference. In addition, in certain cases, the ability of Holders to use Securities for hedging may be restricted by the provisions of the Securities Act.

Risk of Leveraged Exposure

Leverage involves the use of a number of financial techniques to increase the exposure to an Underlying Reference, and can therefore magnify both returns and losses. While the use of leverage allows for potential multiples of a return (assuming a return is achieved) when the Underlying Reference moves in the anticipated direction, it will conversely magnify losses when the Underlying Reference moves against expectations. If the relevant Securities include leverage, potential holders of such Securities should note that these Securities will involve a higher level of risk, and that whenever there are losses such losses may be higher than those of a similar security which is not leveraged. Investors should therefore only invest in leveraged Securities if they fully understand the effects of leverage.

Effect of Credit Rating Reduction

The value of the Securities is expected to be affected, in part, by investors' general appraisal of the creditworthiness of the relevant Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantor. Such perceptions are generally influenced by the ratings accorded to the outstanding securities of BNPP B.V. or BNPP by standard statistical rating services, such as Moody's Investors Service Limited ("Moody's"), Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw Xxxx Companies, Inc. ("Standard & Poor's") and Fitch Ratings Ltd. ("Fitch"). A reduction in the rating, if any, accorded to outstanding debt securities of BNPP B.V. or BNPP by one of these rating agencies could result in a reduction in the trading value of the Securities.

Taxation

Potential purchasers and sellers of Securities should be aware that they may be required to pay stamp taxes or other documentary charges in accordance with the laws and practices of the country where the Securities are transferred and/or any asset(s) are delivered.

Change of Law

The Conditions of the English Law Securities are based on English law in effect as at the date of this Base Prospectus. The Conditions of the French Law Securities are based on French law in effect as at the date of this Base Prospectus. No assurance can be given as to the impact of any possible judicial decision or change to an administrative practice or change to English law or French law, as applicable, after the date of this Base Prospectus.

Termination of Securities in the Event of Illegality or Impracticability

If the Issuer determines that the performance of its obligations under the Securities has become illegal or impracticable in whole or in part for any reason, the Issuer may cancel, in the case of Warrants, or redeem, in the case of Certificates, the Securities by paying to each Holder the fair market value of such Securities less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements. Such cancellation or redemption may result in an investor not realising a return on an investment in the Securities.

Post-issuance Information

Applicable Final Terms may specify that the relevant Issuer will not provide post-issuance information in relation to the Underlying Reference. In such an event, investors will not be entitled to obtain such information from the relevant Issuer.

Product Specific Risk Factors

Certain Considerations Associated with Index Securities

An investment in Index Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of Index Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the underlying index/indices. Such underlying index may be a well known and widely published index or an index established and calculated by the Issuer or its affiliates or another entity which may not be widely published or available. The index may reference equities, bonds or other securities, it may be a property index referencing certain property price data which will be subject to market price fluctuations. A property index may include valuations only and not actual transactions and the property data sources used to compile the index may be subject to change, which may adversely affect the return on the Securities. Index Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference the value of the underlying index/indices.

Certain Considerations Associated with Share Securities

An investment in Share Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of Share Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the share(s) and/or the physical delivery of a given number of share(s). Accordingly, an investment in Share Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct equity investment and investors should take advice accordingly. Share Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying share(s).

In the case of Share Securities, no issuer of the underlying shares will have participated in the preparation of the relevant Final Terms or in establishing the terms of the Securities, and none of the Issuer, the Guarantor or any Manager will make any investigation or enquiry in connection with such offering with respect to any information concerning any such issuer of shares contained in such Final Terms or in the documents from which such information was extracted. Consequently, there can be no assurance that all events occurring prior to the relevant issue date (including events that would affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly available information described in this paragraph or in any relevant Final Terms) that would affect the trading price of the share will have been publicly disclosed. Subsequent disclosure of any such events or the disclosure of or failure to disclose material future events concerning such an issuer of shares could affect the trading price of the share and therefore the trading price of the Securities.

Except as provided in the Conditions, Holders will not have voting rights or rights to receive dividends or distributions or any other rights with respect to the relevant shares to which such Securities relate.

Certain Considerations Associated with GDR/ADR Securities

An investment in GDR/ADR Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of GDR/ADR Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the GDRs/ADRs redemption or exercise, as the case may be, and/or the physical delivery of a given number of GDRs/ADRs. Accordingly, an investment in GDR/ADR Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct GDR investment, and investors should take advice accordingly. GDR/ADR Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying GDRs/ADRs.

Certain Considerations Associated with Debt Securities

An investment in Debt Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of Debt Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the underlying debt instrument(s) and/or the physical delivery of a given number of debt instrument(s). Accordingly, an investment in Debt Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct

debt instrument investment, and investors should take advice accordingly. Debt Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying debt instrument(s).

Certain Considerations Associated with Currency Securities

An investment in Currency Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of Currency Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the currency/currencies and/or the physical delivery of a given amount of a currency or currencies. Accordingly, an investment in Currency Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct currency investment, and investors should take advice accordingly. Currency Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying currency/currencies.

Fluctuations in exchange rates of the relevant currency (or basket of currencies) will affect the value of Currency Securities. Furthermore, investors who intend to convert gains or losses from the exercise, redemption or sale of Currency Securities into their home currency may be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates between their home currency and the relevant currency (or basket of currencies). Currency values may be affected by complex political and economic factors, including governmental action to fix or support the value of a currency (or basket of currencies), regardless of other market forces. Purchasers of Currency Securities risk losing their entire investment if exchange rates of the relevant currency (or basket of currencies) do not move in the anticipated direction.

If additional warrants, securities or options relating to particular currencies or particular currency indices are subsequently issued, the supply of warrants and options relating to such currencies or currency indices, as applicable, in the market will increase, which could cause the price at which the Securities and such other warrants, securities and options trade in the secondary market to decline significantly.

Certain Considerations Associated with Commodity Securities

An investment in Commodity Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On exercise of Commodity Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the commodity, commodity index, commodities and/or commodity indices. Accordingly, an investment in Commodity Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct commodity investment, and investors should take advice accordingly. Commodity Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying commodity, commodity index, commodities and/or commodity indices.

Certain Considerations Associated with Inflation Index Securities

An investment in Inflation Index Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On exercise of Inflation Index Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the underlying inflation index/indices. Inflation Index Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying inflation index/indices.

Certain Considerations Associated with Fund Securities

An investment in Fund Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On exercise of Fund Securities, Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of the fund shares or units and/or the physical delivery of a given number of fund shares or units. Accordingly, an investment in Fund Securities may bear similar market risks to a direct fund investment, and investors should take advice accordingly. Fund Index Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the underlying fund shares or units. The price of units or shares in a fund may be affected by the performance of the fund service providers, and in particular the investment adviser.

Certain Considerations Associated with Credit Certificates

The Issuers may issue Certificates where the amount payable is dependent upon whether certain events ("Credit Events") have occurred in respect of one or more Reference Entity/Entities and, if so, on the value of certain specified assets of such Reference Entity/Entities or where, if such events have occurred, such Issuers' obligation is to deliver certain specified assets.

The price of such Certificates may be volatile and will be affected by, amongst other things, the time remaining to the redemption date and the creditworthiness of the Reference Entity/Entities, which in turn may be affected by the economic, financial and political events in one or more jurisdictions.

Where the Certificates provide for physical delivery, the Issuer may determine that the specified assets to be delivered are either (a) assets which for any reason (including, without limitation, failure of the relevant clearance system or due to any law, regulation, court order or market conditions or the non-receipt of any requisite consents with respect to the delivery of assets which are loans) it is impossible or illegal to deliver on the specified settlement date or (b) assets which the Issuer and/or any Affiliate has not received under the terms of any transaction entered into by the Issuer and/or such Affiliate to hedge the Issuer's obligations in respect of the Certificates. Any such determination may delay settlement in respect of the Securities and/or cause the obligation to deliver such specified assets to be replaced by an obligation to pay a cash amount which, in either case, may affect the value of the Certificates and, in the case of payment of a cash amount, will affect the timing of the valuation of such Certificates and, as a result, the amount payable on redemption. Prospective purchasers should review the Terms and Conditions of the Certificates and the applicable Final Terms to ascertain whether and how such provisions should apply to the Certificates.

The Issuer's obligations in respect of Credit Linked Certificates are irrespective of the existence or amount of the Issuer's and/or any affiliates' credit exposure to a Reference Entity, and the Issuer and/or any affiliate need not suffer any loss nor provide evidence of any loss as a result of the occurrence of a Credit Event.

Certain Considerations Associated with Hybrid Securities

An investment in Hybrid Securities will entail significant risks not associated with an investment in a conventional debt security. On redemption or exercise, as the case may be, of Hybrid Securities Holders will receive an amount (if any) determined by reference to the value of a combination of a number of different Underlying References. Hybrid Linked Interest Certificates pay interest calculated by reference to the value of the combination of a number of Underlying References.

Additional Factors relating to certain Underlying References

Certain Considerations Associated with Securities linked to Funds

Where the Issuer issues Fund Securities linked to one or more Funds, including Hedge Funds, the relevant Securities reflect the performance of such fund(s).

Funds may trade and invest in a broad range of investments such as debt and equity securities, commodities and foreign exchange and may enter into derivative transactions, including, without limitation, futures and options. Funds may often be illiquid and may only be traded on a monthly, quarterly or even less frequent basis. The trading strategies of Funds are often opaque. Funds, as well as the markets and instruments in which they invest, are often not subject to review by governmental authorities, self-regulatory organisations or other supervisory authorities.

For all the above reasons, investing directly or indirectly in Funds is generally considered to be risky. If the underlying Fund does not perform sufficiently well, the value of the Security will fall, and may in certain circumstances be zero.

Certain Considerations Associated with Securities Linked to Emerging Markets

The Issuer may issue Securities where the amount payable on exercise or redemption or the interest payable is linked to Underlying References which consist of (i) securities, funds or indices comprising securities of issuers that are located in, or subject to regulation in, emerging or developing countries, or (ii) securities which are denominated in the currency of, or are traded in, emerging or developing countries or (iii) currencies of emerging or developing countries. Prospective investors should note that additional risks may be associated with investment in such Securities, including risks associated with political and economic uncertainty, adverse governmental policies, restrictions on foreign investment and currency convertibility, currency exchange rate fluctuations, possible lower levels of disclosure and regulation, and uncertainties as to the status, interpretation and application of laws including, but not limited to, those relating to expropriation, nationalisation and confiscation. Securities traded in emerging or developing countries tend to be less liquid and the prices of such securities more volatile. In addition, settlement of trades in some such markets may be slower and more subject to failure than in markets in developed countries.

Increased custodian costs as well as administrative difficulties (such as the applicability of the laws of the jurisdictions of emerging or developing countries to custodians in such jurisdictions in various circumstances, including bankruptcy, ability to recover lost assets, expropriation, nationalisation and record access) may also arise from the maintenance of assets in such emerging or developing countries.

Prospective purchasers of the Securities should also be aware that the probability of the occurrence of a Hedging Disruption Event (or other Adjustment Event under the relevant legal terms as set out further in the Warrant Conditions or the Certificate Conditions) and consequently loss of investment or profit by an investor may be higher for certain developing or emerging markets. Prospective purchasers are expected to conduct their own enquiries and be satisfied that there are additional risks associated with investments linked to the performance of underlying assets located in these markets.

Certain Considerations Associated with certain Dynamic Securities

The Issuer may issue dynamic Securities ("Dynamic Securities"). Dynamic Securities may be linked to a portfolio or strategy often comprising assets with a greater potential for return and consequently greater risk (e.g. a Hedge Fund) and assets with a lower return and consequently lesser risk (e.g. a zero coupon debt security issued by an issuer with a high credit rating). The portfolio or strategy may include leverage on certain specified terms. The portfolio or strategy is dynamic and may rebalance between the relevant assets based upon a specified allocation methodology. The value of Dynamic Securities is determined by reference to the underlying portfolio or strategy. This portfolio or strategy may change during the term of the Securities, which may affect the value of, and any return on, the Securities.

Considering the above aspects, Dynamic Securities are by their nature intrinsically complex, which makes their evaluation difficult in terms of risk at the time of the purchase as well as thereafter. Investors should therefore purchase Dynamic Securities only after having completely understood and evaluated either themselves or with a financial adviser the nature and the risk inherent in the Dynamic Security.

Disruption and Adjustment Provisions

Market Disruption Events or failure to open of an exchange

If an issue of Securities includes provisions dealing with the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event or failure to open of an exchange on the Strike Date (as defined below), a Valuation Date (as defined below), an Averaging Date (as defined below) or an Observation Date (as defined below) and the Calculation Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event or failure to open of an exchange has occurred or exists on the Strike Date, such Valuation Date, such Averaging Date or such Observation Date, any consequential postponement of the Strike Date, the Valuation Date, Averaging Date or Observation Date or any alternative provisions for valuation provided in any Securities may have an

adverse effect on the value and liquidity of such Securities. The occurrence of such a Market Disruption Event or failure to open of an exchange in relation to any Underlying Reference comprising a basket may also have such an adverse effect on Securities related to such basket. In addition, any such consequential postponement may result in the postponement of the relevant Settlement Date or Redemption Date.

Adjustment Events relating to Index Securities

In the case of Index Securities, if a relevant Index is (i) not calculated and announced by the Index Sponsor in respect of the Index but is calculated and announced by a successor sponsor or successor entity, as the case may be, acceptable to the Calculation Agent, or (ii) replaced by a successor index using, in the determination of the Calculation Agent, the same or a substantially similar formula for and method of calculation as used in the calculation of that Index, then, in each case, that index will be deemed to be the Index. In addition, if an Index Modification, an Index Cancellation or an Index Disruption (each as defined below) occurs (each being an Index Adjustment Event), then, except as may be limited in the case of U.S. Securities,

(i) the Calculation Agent shall determine if such Index Adjustment Event has a material effect on the Securities and, if so, shall calculate the relevant Settlement Price on a modified basis as set out in the Conditions; or

(ii) in the case of Warrants, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms or in the case of Certificates, unless Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Index Adjustment Event is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the Issuer may cancel or redeem, as the case may be, the Securities. If the Securities are so cancelled or redeemed, the amount payable to each Holder in respect of each Security or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, as the case may be, held by it shall be the fair market value of a Security or a Unit, as the case may be, taking into account the Index Adjustment Event less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements, all as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion; or

(iii) in the case of Certificates and if Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Index Adjustment Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent shall calculate the fair market value of each Certificate taking into account the Index Adjustment Event less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount") as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the Index Adjustment Event (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date") and, on the Redemption Date, shall redeem each Certificate at an amount calculated by the Calculation Agent equal to (x) the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount plus interest accrued from and including the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date to but excluding the Redemption Date at a rate equal to the Issuer's funding cost at such time or (y) if greater, the Notional Amount.

Any such adjustment may have an adverse effect on the value and liquidity of such Securities.

Potential Adjustment Events relating to Share Securities or Fund Securities linked to Exchange Traded Funds ("ETF Linked Securities")

In the case of Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities, except as may be limited in the case of U.S. Securities, following the declaration by the Basket Company, Share Company or Fund, as the case may be, of the terms of any Potential Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent will, in its sole and absolute discretion, determine whether such Potential Adjustment Event has a diluting or concentrative effect on the theoretical value of the Shares or Fund Shares and, if so, will (i) make the corresponding adjustment, if any, to any one or more of any Relevant Asset and/or the Entitlement and/or the Exercise Price and/or the Weighting and/or any of the other terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms as the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion determines appropriate to account for that diluting or concentrative effect (provided that no adjustments will be made to account solely for

changes in volatility, expected dividends, stock loan rate or liquidity relative to the relevant Share or Fund Share) and

(ii) determine the effective date of that adjustment. Such adjustment may have an adverse effect on the value and liquidity of the affected Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities.

Other Events relating to Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities

In the case of Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities, if a Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-Listing, Nationalisation or Insolvency occurs in relation to a Share or Fund Share, the Issuer in its sole and absolute discretion may take the action described in (i) or (ii) below (except as may be limited in the case of U.S. Securities):

(i) require the Calculation Agent to determine in its sole and absolute discretion the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any one or more of any Relevant Asset and/or the Entitlement and/or the Exercise Price and/or the Weighting and/or any of the other terms of these Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-Listing, Nationalisation or Insolvency, as the case may be, and determine the effective date of that adjustment, in which case such adjustment may have an adverse effect on the value and liquidity of the affected Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities; or

(ii) in the case of Warrants unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms or in the case of Certificates, unless Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Extraordinary Event is specified as applicable in the applicable Final Terms, cancel or redeem, as the case may be, part (in the case of Share Securities or ETF Linked Securities relating to a basket of Shares or Fund Shares) or all (in any other case) of the Securities, in which case, following such cancellation, an investor generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the relevant Securities being redeemed and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate, and potential investors should consider reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time; or

(iii) in the case of Certificates and if Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Extraordinary Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent shall calculate the fair market value of each Certificate, taking into account the Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-Listing, Nationalisation or Insolvency, as the case may be, less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount") as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the relevant event (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date") and, on the Redemption Date, shall redeem each Certificate at an amount calculated by the Calculation Agent equal to (x) the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount plus interest accrued from and including the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date to but excluding the Redemption Date at a rate equal to the Issuer's funding cost at such time or (y) if greater, the Notional Amount.

Consequently the occurrence of a Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-Listing, Nationalisation or Insolvency in relation to a Share or Fund Share may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Securities.

Other Events relating to Fund Securities

In the case of Fund Securities, following the occurrence of an Extraordinary Fund Event, the Issuer may substitute the relevant Fund Shares with fund shares of a fund with similar characteristics or, if no such fund is selected, with a replacement index or terminate the Securities depending or whether such Extraordinary Fund Event is a Substitution Event or a Termination Event.

Consequently the occurrence of an Extraordinary Fund Event may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Securities.

Market Disruption Events relating to Commodity Securities

If a Market Disruption Event occurs then:

(i) the Calculation Agent will determine if such event has a material effect on the Securities and, if so, will calculate the relevant Interest Amount and/or Cash Settlement Amount and/or make another relevant calculation using, in lieu of a published price for the relevant Commodity, the price for that Commodity as at the time specified on the relevant Pricing Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent taking into consideration the latest available quotation for such Commodity and any other information that in good faith it deems relevant; or

(ii) in the case of Warrants unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms or in the case of Certificates unless Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Market Disruption Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, on giving notice to Holders, the Issuer will cancel or redeem, as applicable, the Securities, and pay in respect of each Security an amount equal to the fair market value of such Securities less the cost to the Issuer of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements, all as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion; or

(iii) in the case of Certificates and if Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Market Disruption Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent will calculate the fair market value of each Certificate, taking into account the Market Disruption Event less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (the "Calculated Market Disruption Amount") as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the Market Disruption Event (the "Calculated Market Disruption Amount Determination Date") and, on the Redemption Date, shall redeem each Certificate at an amount calculated by the Calculation Agent equal to (x) the Calculated Market Disruption Amount plus interest accrued from and including the Calculated Additional Market Amount Determination Date to but excluding the Redemption Date at a rate equal to Issuer's funding cost at such time or (y) if greater, the Notional Amount.

Consequently the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event in relation to a Commodity may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Securities.

Additional Disruption Events

If an Additional Disruption Event (other than a Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity) occurs then:

(i) the Calculation Agent will determine the appropriate adjustment, if any, to be made to any one or more of any Relevant Asset and/or the Entitlement and/or the Weighting and/or any of the other terms of the Terms and Conditions and/or the applicable Final Terms to account for the Additional Disruption Event and determine the effective date of that adjustment; or

(ii) in the case of Warrants unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms or in the case of Certificates unless Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Additional Disruption Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, on giving notice to Holders in accordance with Condition 11, the Issuer will cancel or redeem the Securities, and pay in respect of each Security an amount equal to the fair market value of a Security taking into account the Additional Disruption Event less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements, all as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion; or

(iii) in the case of Certificates and if Delayed Redemption on Occurrence of Additional Disruption Event is specified as being applicable in the applicable Final Terms, the Calculation Agent will calculate the fair market

value of each Certificate, taking into account the Additional Disruption Event, less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount") as soon as practicable following the occurrence of the Additional Disruption Event (the "Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date") and on the Redemption Date shall redeem each Certificate at an amount calculated by the Calculation Agent equal to (x) the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount plus interest accrued from and including the Calculated Additional Disruption Amount Determination Date to but excluding the Redemption Date at a rate equal to Issuer's funding cost at such time or (y) if greater, the Notional Amount.

If a Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity occurs:

(i) subject as provided in the Conditions, any Relevant Assets which are not Affected Relevant Assets, will be delivered on the originally designated Redemption Date; and

(ii) in respect of any Affected Relevant Assets, in lieu of physical settlement except in the case of U.S. Certificates (in which case another price or prices will be specified in the applicable Final Terms) the Issuer may elect in its sole discretion to satisfy its obligations in respect of the relevant Security, by payment to the relevant Holder of the Failure to Deliver Settlement Price on the fifth Business Day following the date that notice of such election is given to the Holders.

Consequently the occurrence of an Additional Disruption Event may have an adverse effect on the value or liquidity of the Securities.

Settlement Disruption Events

In the case of Physical Delivery Securities, if a Settlement Disruption Event occurs or exists on the Settlement Date or the Redemption Date respectively, settlement will be postponed until the next Settlement Business Day in respect of which there is no Settlement Disruption Event. The relevant Issuer in these circumstances also has the right to pay the Disruption Cash Settlement Price (as defined below) in lieu of delivering the Entitlement. As further described below, the Disruption Cash Settlement Price may be less than the fair market value of the Entitlement.

Option to Vary Settlement

If so indicated in the Final Terms, the relevant Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to vary the settlement of the Securities, by (i) in the case of Cash Settled Securities, delivering or procuring delivery of the Entitlement instead of making payment of the Cash Settlement Amount to the relevant Holders or (ii) in the case of Physical Delivery Securities, making payment of the Cash Settlement Amount to the relevant Holders instead of delivering or procuring delivery of the Entitlement.

Option to Substitute Assets or to Pay the Alternate Cash Amount

The Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, if the Calculation Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the Relevant Asset or Relevant Assets, as the case may be, comprise assets which are not freely tradable, elect either (i) to substitute a Substitute Asset or Substitute Assets, as the case may be, for the Relevant Asset or Relevant Assets or (ii) not to deliver or procure the delivery of the Entitlement or the Substitute Asset or Substitute Assets, as the case may be, to the relevant holders, but in lieu thereof to make payment to the relevant holders on the Settlement Date of the Alternate Cash Amount.

Certificates Subject to Optional Redemption or Cancellation by the Relevant Issuer or Other Early Redemption or Cancellation

An optional or other early redemption (or cancellation) feature is likely to limit the market value of the Certificates. In the case of Certificates having an optional redemption (or cancellation) feature, during any period when the relevant Issuer may elect to redeem (or cancel) the relevant Certificates, the market value of those Certificates generally will not rise substantially above the price at which they can be redeemed (or cancelled). This also may be true prior to any redemption (or cancellation) period. In addition, the Final Terms may provide that the relevant Certificates shall be redeemed (or cancelled) early in specified circumstances. Following an optional or early redemption (or cancellation), a Holder generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption (or cancellation) proceeds (if any) at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the relevant Certificates being redeemed (or cancelled), and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate. Potential investors should consider reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time.

Interest

Interest linked to an Underlying Reference

Interest payable on Underlying Reference Linked Interest Certificates may be determined by reference to an Underlying Reference or combinations of a number of different Underlying References. Potential investors should be aware that:

(i) the market price of such Securities may be volatile;

(ii) they may receive no interest;

(iii) payment of interest may occur at a different time or in a different currency than expected;

(iv) an Underlying Reference may be subject to significant fluctuations that may not correlate with changes in interest rates, currencies or other indices;

(v) if an Underlying Reference is applied to Certificates in conjunction with a weighting greater than one or contains some other leverage factor, the effect of changes in the Underlying Reference on interest payable will be magnified;

(vi) the timing of changes in an Underlying Reference may affect the actual yield to investors, even if the average level is consistent with their expectations (in general, the earlier the change in the Underlying Reference, the greater the effect on yield); and

(vii) interest may only be payable and/or calculated in respect of certain specified days and/or periods on or during which the Underlying Reference or its value equals, exceeds and/or is less than certain specified thresholds.

Limited Exposure to Underlying Reference

If the applicable Final Terms provide that the exposure of the relevant Securities to one or more Underlying References is limited or capped at a certain level or amount, the relevant Securities will not benefit from any upside in the value of any such Underlying References beyond such limit or cap.

Certain Additional Risk Factors Relating to market access products

Prospective purchasers of the Securities should note that the Securities are market access products in that the Issuer's obligations in respect thereof may be hedged by means of the Share(s), the Index, the Shares comprised in the Index, the Shares relating to the depositary receipts, the Debt Securities and/or any instrument used for the purposes of hedging obligations under the Securities being held by a Qualified Investor which is a company within the Issuer's

group. Although the prospective purchaser of the Securities will have no proprietary interest in such Share(s), the Index, the Shares comprised in the Index, the Shares relating to the depositary receipts, the Debt Securities and/or any instrument used for the purposes of hedging obligations under the Securities, the economic and other risks associated with such Shares, the Index, the Shares comprised in the Index, the Shares relating to the depositary receipts, the Debt Securities and/or instrument shall be assumed by the prospective purchasers of Securities as set out further in the Warrant Conditions or the Certificate Conditions.

No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of any trading market for the Securities. Prospective purchasers of the Securities should note that the liquidity of any trading market for the Securities is directly linked to the liquidity of any trading market for the Shares, the depositary receipts, the Debt Securities or the Index or contracts or instruments which reference the Index.

Prospective purchasers of the Securities should also be aware that the probability of the occurrence of a Hedging Disruption Event (or other Adjustment Event under the relevant legal terms as set out further in the Warrant Conditions or the Certificate Conditions) may be higher for certain developing or emerging markets as further described in "Certain Considerations Associated with Securities Linked to Emerging Markets" above.

Certain Additional Risk Factors Associated with Warrants

Limitations on Exercise of Warrants

If so indicated in the Final Terms, the relevant Issuer will have the option to limit the number of Warrants exercisable on any date (other than the final exercise date) to the maximum number specified in the Final Terms and, in conjunction with such limitation, to limit the number of Warrants exercisable by any person or group of persons (whether or not acting in concert) on such date. In the event that the total number of Warrants being exercised on any date (other than the final exercise date) exceeds such maximum number and the Issuer elects to limit the number of Warrants exercisable on such date, a Holder may not be able to exercise on such date all the Warrants that such Holder desires to exercise. In any such case, the number of Warrants to be exercised on such date will be reduced until the total number of Warrants exercised on such date no longer exceeds such maximum, such Warrants being selected at the discretion of the Issuer or in any other manner specified in the applicable Final Terms. Unless otherwise specified in the Final Terms, the Warrants tendered for exercise but not exercised on such date will be automatically exercised on the next date on which Warrants may be exercised, subject to the same daily maximum limitation and delayed exercise provisions.

Minimum Exercise Amount of Warrants

If so indicated in the Final Terms, a Holder must tender or, in the case of automatic exercise, hold, a specified number of Warrants at any one time in order to exercise. Thus, Holders with fewer than the specified minimum number of Warrants will either have to sell their Warrants or purchase additional Warrants, incurring transaction costs in each case, in order to realise their investment. Furthermore, holders of such Warrants incur the risk that there may be differences between the trading price of such Warrants and the Cash Settlement Amount (in the case of Cash Settled Warrants) or the Physical Settlement Value (in the case of Physical Delivery Warrants) of such Warrants.

Time Lag after Exercise of Warrants

In the case of any exercise of Warrants, there will be a time lag between the time a Holder gives instructions to exercise and the time the applicable Cash Settlement Amount (in the case of Cash Settled Warrants) relating to such exercise is determined. Any such delay between the time of exercise and the determination of the Cash Settlement Amount will be specified in the applicable Final Terms or the applicable Terms and Conditions. However, such delay could be significantly longer, particularly in the case of a delay in the exercise of Warrants arising from any daily maximum exercise limitation, the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event or the failure to open of an exchange (if applicable) or following the imposition of any exchange controls or other similar regulations affecting the ability to obtain or exchange any relevant currency (or basket of currencies) in the case of Currency Warrants. The applicable Cash

Settlement Amount may change significantly during any such period, and such movement or movements could decrease the Cash Settlement Amount of the relevant Warrants, and may result in such Cash Settlement Amount being zero.

4. Notification

The Authority for the Financial Markets, which is the Netherlands competent authority for the purpose of the Prospectus Directive, has provided the Italian National Commission for the Companies and the Market- CONSOB with certificates of approval attesting that the Base Prospectus and the Supplements to the Base Prospectus have been drawn up in accordance with the Prospectus Directive.

5. Performance of Underlying/Formula/Other Variable, Explanation of Effect on Value of Investment and Associated Risks and Other Information concerning the Underlying

The Warrants are European Call and Put Warrants. The formula for calculating the Cash Settlement Amount is described in § 45.

Prospective purchasers of the Warrants should recognise that their Warrants may expire worthless. Therefore an investment in the Warrant is highly speculative, could involve significant risk and should only be considered by persons who can afford a loss of their entire investment.

During the secondary market period, the price of the Warrants will depend upon market conditions and may be subject to significant fluctuations.

Past and future performances of each Underlying Share are available on the Exchange website and the volatility of each Underlying Share is available on Reuters pages as set out in the table in Part C.

The issue of the Warrants is not sponsored or promoted by any Share Company and is under the sole responsibility of BNP Paribas. No Share Company makes any representation whatsoever nor promote the growth of the Warrants in relation to their Shares and consequently does not have any financial or legal obligation with respect to the Warrants. In addition, each Share Company draws the attention of Holders that

Warrants do not give the right to dividends distributed by the Share Company or voting rights or any other right with respect of the Share Company.

In the case of VPC Warrants and Italian Dematerialised Warrants, the applicable Final Terms in respect of such Warrants will be available at the specified office of the relevant Issuer and at the office of the VPC Warrant Agent or Italian Warrant Agent, as applicable, in each case specified in the applicable Final Terms.

The Agency Agreement will be governed by English Law in the case of English Law Warrants (the "English Law Agency Agreement") and by French Law in the case of French Law Warrants (as defined in Condition 4 below) (the "French Law Agency Agreement"). The VPC Agency Agreement will be governed by Swedish Law.

English Law Warrants (as defined in Condition 4 below) other than VPC Warrants and Italian Dematerialised Warrants are constituted by a clearing system global warrant (the "Clearing System Global Warrant") or a registered global warrant (the "Registered Global Warrant") or a warrant in definitive registered form (a "Private Placement Definitive Warrant") as specified in the applicable Final Terms. Except as provided herein, no Warrants in definitive form will be issued.

English Law Warrants that are VPC Warrants will be issued in registered, uncertificated and dematerialised book-entry form in accordance with the Swedish Financial Instruments Accounts Xxx 0000 (Sw.: Lag (1998:1479) om kontoföring av finansiella instrument) (the "SFIA Act").VPC Warrants will not be issued in definitive form.

English Law Warrants that are Italian Dematerialised Warrants will be issued in registered, uncertificated and dematerialised book-entry form into Monte Titoli S.p.A. ("Monte Titoli") pursuant to Italian legislative decree no. 213/1998, as amended and implemented and subsequent implementing provisions. Italian Dematerialised Warrants will not be issued in definitive form.

In the event that the applicable Final Terms specify that Warrants are eligible for sale in the United States ("US Warrants") (such eligibility to be pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act")), (A) the Warrants sold in the United States to qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs") within the meaning of Rule 144A ("Rule 144A") under the Securities Act ("Rule 144A Warrants") will be represented by one or more Rule 144A global warrants (each, a "Rule 144A Global Warrant"), (B) the Warrants sold in the United States to certain accredited investors ("AIs") (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act) will be constituted by private placement definitive warrants (the "Private Placement Definitive Warrants"), and (C) in either such case, the Warrants sold outside the United States to non-U.S. persons under the exemption contained in Regulation S ("Regulation S") under the Securities Act will be represented by one or more Regulation S global warrants (each, a "Regulation S Global Warrant"). References herein to a Clearing System Global Warrant include, as the context so requires, a Rule 144A Global Warrant and a Regulation S Global Warrant. In the event that the Final Terms does not specify that Warrants are eligible for sale in the United States or to U.S. persons, the Warrants offered and sold outside the United States to non-U.S. persons under the exemption contained in Regulation S will be represented by a Clearing System Global Warrant or a Registered Global Warrant, as the case may be.

In the event that the Warrants are constituted by a Clearing System Global Warrant (such Warrants being hereinafter referred to as "Clearing System Warrants"), the Clearing System Global Warrant will be deposited with a depositary (the "Common Depositary") common to Clearstream Banking, société anonyme ("Clearstream, Luxembourg") and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. ("Euroclear") and/or any other relevant Clearing System (as defined below) or (in the case of English Law Warrants held through Euroclear France) with Euroclear France, in each case in accordance with the rules and regulations of the relevant clearing system(s). If the Clearing System specified in the Final Terms is Iberclear, the term Common Depositary and/or Custodian shall be deemed to refer to the foreign custodian (Entidad Custodia) or Iberclear Participant (Entidad Miembro de Iberclear), as the case may be, appointed in accordance with the rules and regulations of Iberclear. Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant will be either (i) deposited with a custodian (a "Custodian") for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), or

(ii) issued and deposited with the Common Depositary on behalf of Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear and/or any other relevant Clearing System.

In the event that the Warrants are constituted by a Registered Global Warrant (such Warrants being hereafter referred to as "Registered Warrants"), the Registered Global Warrant will be held by the Registrar on behalf of the holders.

Interests in a Rule 144A Global Warrant and a Regulation S Global Warrant may be exchanged for interests in the other Clearing System Global Warrant and for Private Placement Definitive Warrants and Private Placement Definitive Warrants may be exchanged for an interest in a Rule 144A Global Warrant or Regulation S Global Warrant only as described herein. Interests in a Clearing System Global Warrant or a Private Placement Definitive Warrant may not be exchanged for interests in a Registered Global Warrant and interests in a Registered Global Warrant may not be exchanged for interests in a Clearing System Global Warrant or a Private Placement Definitive Warrant.

Each of the Clearing System Global Warrant and the Registered Global Warrant is referred to in these Terms and Conditions as a "Global Warrant". The applicable Final Terms (or the relevant provisions thereof) will be attached to such Global Warrant.

In the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, if DTC notifies BNPP that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depositary for that Global Warrant or if at any time DTC ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary is not appointed by BNPP within 90 days of such notice, BNPP will deliver Warrants in definitive registered form (bearing such legends as may be required by BNPP) in exchange for that Rule 144A Global Warrant. Except in these circumstances, owners of beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC will not be entitled to have any portion of such Warrants registered in their name and will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of registered Warrants in definitive form in exchange for their interests in that Rule 144A Global Warrant. Transfer, exercise, settlement and other mechanics related to any Warrants issued in definitive form in exchange for Warrants represented by such Rule 144A Global Warrant shall be as agreed between BNPP and the New York Warrant Agent.

French Law Warrants (as defined in Condition 4 below) are issued in dematerialised form (au porteur) (such Warrants hereinafter also referred to as "Clearing System Warrants"). No physical document of title (including certificats représentatifs pursuant to Article R.211-7 of the French Code Monétaire et Financier) will be issued in respect of French Law Warrants.

The applicable Final Terms for the Warrants supplements these Terms and Conditions and may specify other terms and conditions which shall, to the extent so specified or to the extent inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions, supplement, replace or modify these Terms and Conditions for the purposes of the Warrants.

References herein to the "applicable Final Terms" are to the Final Terms or two or more sets of Final Terms (in the case of any further warrants issued pursuant to Condition 13 and forming a single series with the Warrants) (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be issued in respect of more than one series of Warrants) insofar as they relate to the Warrants.

Subject as provided in Condition 3 and in the relevant Guarantee (as defined below), where the Issuer is BNPP B.V., the obligations of BNPP B.V. with respect to physical delivery (if applicable) and/or the payment of amounts payable by BNPP B.V. are guaranteed by BNPP (in such capacity, the "Guarantor") pursuant to the Guarantee.

The Holders (as defined in Condition 1(B)) are entitled to the benefit of and are deemed to have notice of and are bound by all the provisions of the Agency Agreement (insofar as they relate to the Warrants) and the applicable Final Terms, which are binding on them.

1. Type, Title and Transfer

(A) Type

The Warrants relate to a specified Index or basket of Indices ("Index Warrants"), a specified Share or basket of Shares ("Share Warrants"), a specified depositary receipt (a "GDR/ADR") referencing a share (an "Underlying Share") or basket of GDRs and/or ADRs ("GDR/ADR Warrants"), a specified debt instrument ("Debt Security") or basket of Debt Securities ("Debt Warrants"), a specified currency ("Currency") or basket of Currencies ("Currency Warrants"), a specified commodity ("Commodity") or basket of Commodities ("Commodity Warrants"), a specified inflation Index or basket of inflation Indices ("Inflation Index Warrants"), a specified fund share or unit or basket of fund shares or Units ("Fund Warrants"), the credit of a specified reference entity or entities ("Credit Linked Warrants") or any other or further type of warrants as is specified in the applicable Final Terms including Warrants which relate to any combination of such indices, shares, debt securities, currencies, fund shares or units, commodities and other asset classes or types ("Hybrid Warrants"). Warrants related to a specified currency or basket of currencies, a specified commodity or basket of commodities, a specified interest rate or basket of interest rates or a specified inflation index or basket of inflation indices, a specified fund share or unit or basket of fund shares or units, the credit of a specified reference entity or reference entities, or Hybrid Warrants related to any of these asset classes, may not at any time be offered, sold, resold, held, traded, pledged, exercised, settled, transferred or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United States or to, by or for the account or benefit of, persons that are U.S. persons as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act or that are not non-United States Persons as defined in Rule 4.7 under the United States Commodity Exchange Act, as amended.

The applicable Final Terms will indicate whether the Warrants are American style Warrants ("American Style Warrants") or European style Warrants ("European Style Warrants"), Registered Warrants or such other type as may be specified in the applicable Final Terms, in the case of Cash Settled Warrants whether automatic exercise ("Automatic Exercise") applies to the Warrants, whether settlement shall be by way of cash payment ("Cash Settled Warrants") or physical delivery ("Physical Delivery Warrants"), whether the Warrants are call Warrants ("Call Warrants") or put Warrants ("Put Warrants"), or such other type as may be specified in the applicable Final Terms, whether the Warrants may only be exercised in units ("Units") and whether Averaging ("Averaging") will apply to the Warrants. If Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, Warrants must be exercised in Units and any Exercise Notice which purports to exercise Warrants in breach of this provision shall be void and of no effect. If Averaging is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms the applicable Final Terms will state the relevant Averaging Dates and, if an Averaging Date is a Disrupted Day, whether Omission, Postponement or Modified Postponement (each as defined in Condition 4 below) applies. If the Warrants are VPC Warrants they will be European Style Warrants and Cash Settlement and Automatic Exercise will apply. If the Warrants are Italian Dematerialised Warrants they will be European Style Warrants or American Style Warrants and Cash Settlement and Automatic Exercise will apply.

References in these Terms and Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, to Cash Settled Warrants shall be deemed to include references to (a) Physical Delivery Warrants, which include an option (as set out in the applicable Final Terms) at the Issuer's election to request cash settlement of such Warrant pursuant to Condition 5(D)(i) and where settlement is to be by way of cash payment, and (b) Physical Delivery Warrants where settlement is to be automatically varied to be by way of a cash payment pursuant to Condition 5(D)(i). References in these Terms and Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, to Physical Delivery Warrants shall be deemed to include references to Cash Settled Warrants which include an option (as set out in the applicable Final Terms) at the Issuer's election to request physical delivery of the relevant underlying asset in settlement of such Warrant pursuant to Condition 5(D)(i) and where settlement is to be by way of physical delivery. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, BNPP does not have the option to vary settlement in respect of the U.S. Warrants pursuant to Condition 5(D)(i).

Warrants may, if specified in the applicable Final Terms, allow Holders to elect for settlement by way of cash payment or by way of physical delivery or by such other method of settlement as is specified in the applicable Final Terms. Those Warrants where the Holder has elected for cash payment will be Cash Settled Warrants and those Warrants where the Holder has elected for physical delivery will be Physical Delivery Warrants. The rights of a Holder as described in this paragraph may be subject to the Issuer's right to vary settlement as indicated in the applicable Final Terms and will be subject to the Issuer's right to substitute assets or pay the Alternate Cash Amount (as defined below) in lieu of physical delivery in accordance with Condition 5(E).

(B) Title to Warrants

In the case of Warrants represented by a Clearing System Global Warrant held by a Common Depository on behalf of a relevant Clearing System or by Euroclear France and French Law Warrants, each person who is for the time being shown in the records of the relevant Clearing System (in the case of English Law Warrants other than English Law Warrants held through Euroclear France) or whose name appears in the account of the relevant Account Holder (in the case of French Law Warrants or English Law Warrants held through Euroclear France, together "Euroclear France Warrants") as the holder of a particular amount of such Warrants (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, Account Holder as to the amount of Warrants standing to the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, and the relevant Warrant Agent as the Holder of such amount of Warrants for all purposes (and the expressions "Holder" and "Holder of Warrants" and related expressions shall be construed accordingly).

In the case of VPC Warrants, the person for the time being shown in the VPC Register as the holder of a particular amount of Warrants shall (except as otherwise required by law) be treated for all purposes by the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Warrant Agents, VPC and all other persons dealing with such person as the holder thereof and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented thereby notwithstanding any notice to the contrary (and the expressions "Holder" and "Holder of Warrants" and related expressions shall be construed accordingly). The Issuer shall cause such Warrants to be accepted by VPC for clearing and registration in the VPC System in accordance with the SFIA Act and the VPC Rules.

In addition, title to French Law Warrants will be evidenced in accordance with Article L.211-4 of the French Code monétaire et financier by book-entries (inscription en compte). No document of title (including certificats représentatifs pursuant to Article R.211-7 of the French Code Monétaire et Financier) will be issued in respect of such Warrants. The Warrants will, upon issue, be inscribed in the books of Euroclear France which will credit the accounts of the relevant Account Holders.

For the purpose of these Conditions, "Account Holder" means any authorised financial intermediary institution entitled to hold accounts, directly or indirectly, on behalf of its customers with Euroclear France, and includes the depositary bank for Clearstream Luxembourg and Euroclear and any other relevant Clearing System.

In the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, the Rule 144A Global Warrant will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, but this does not confer any rights or benefits on Cede & Co. or any other nominee of DTC in whose name a Rule 144A Global Warrant may be registered. Transfers of such Rule 144A Global Warrant by such nominee of DTC shall be limited to transfers of such Rule 144A Global Warrant, in whole but not in part, to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or such successor's nominee. Rights conferred by the Rule 144A Global Warrant are only enforceable by the Holders (as defined below) as provided therein. Subject as set forth in Condition 1(D) below, each person who is for the time being shown in the records of DTC as the Holder of a particular number of Warrants shall (except as otherwise required by law) be treated by the Issuer and the New York Warrant Agent as the Holder of such amount of Warrants for all purposes (and the expressions "Holder of Warrants" and related expressions shall be construed accordingly).

In the case of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, BNPP shall cause to be kept at the principal office of the Definitive Warrant Agent, a register (the "Private Placement Register") on which shall be entered the names and addresses of all holders of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, the amount and type of Private Placement Definitive Warrants held by them and details of all transfers of Private Placement Definitive Warrants. Subject as set forth in Condition 1(D) below, the persons shown in the Private Placement Register (each a "Holder") shall (except as otherwise required by law) be treated as the absolute owners of the relevant Private Placement Definitive Warrants for all purposes (regardless of any notice of ownership, trust, or any interest in it, any writing on it, or its theft or loss) and no person will be liable for so treating such person.

(C) Title to Registered Warrants

In the case of Registered Warrants, the Issuer shall cause to be kept at the principal office of the Registrar, a register (the "Register") on which shall be entered the names and addresses of all holders of the Warrants, the amount and type of the Warrants held by each Holder and details of all transfers of the Warrants. Each person who is for the time being shown in the Register as the holder of a particular amount of Warrants (each a "Holder") shall (except as otherwise required by law) be

treated as the absolute owner of such amount of Warrants for all purposes (regardless of any notice of ownership, trust, or any interest in it, any writing on it, or its theft or loss) and no person will be liable for so treating such person.

(D) Transfers of Interests in Clearing System Warrants and Private Placement Definitive Warrants

Transfers of Warrants may not be effected after the exercise of such Warrants pursuant to Condition 6.

2. Status of the Warrants and Guarantee

The Warrants are unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the relevant Issuer and rank pari passu among themselves.

Where the Issuer is BNPP B.V., the Guarantee is an unsubordinated and unsecured obligation of BNPP and will rank pari passu with all its other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations subject to such exceptions as may from time to time be mandatory under French law.

3. Guarantee

Where the Issuer is BNPP B.V., subject as provided below and in the relevant Guarantee, BNPP has unconditionally and irrevocably (a) guaranteed to each Holder all obligations of the Issuer in respect of such Holder's Warrants as and when such obligations become due and (b) agreed that if and each time that the Issuer fails to satisfy any obligations under such Warrants as and when such obligations become due, BNPP will not later than five Paris Business Days (as defined in the relevant Guarantee) after a demand has been made on BNPP pursuant thereto (without requiring the relevant Holder first to take steps against the Issuer or any other person) make or cause to be made such payment or satisfy or cause to be satisfied such obligations as though BNPP were the principal obligor in respect of such obligations provided that (i) in the case of Physical Delivery Warrants that are Call Warrants, notwithstanding that the Issuer had the right to vary settlement in respect of such Physical Delivery Warrants in accordance with Condition 5(D) and exercised such right or failed to exercise such right, BNPP will have the right at its sole and unfettered discretion to elect not to deliver or procure delivery of the Entitlement to the Holders of such Physical Delivery Warrants, but in lieu thereof, to make payment in respect of each such Physical Delivery Warrant of an amount determined by BNPP in its sole and absolute discretion equal to the Cash Settlement Amount that would have been payable upon exercise of such Warrants assuming they were Cash Settled Warrants calculated pursuant to the terms of the relevant Final Terms, or in the case of lack of liquidity of the underlying, the fair market value of such Warrant less the costs of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (the "Guaranteed Cash

Settlement Amount") and (ii) in the case of Warrants where the obligations of the Issuer which fail to be satisfied constitute the delivery of the Entitlement to the Holders, the BNPP B.V. Guarantor will as soon as practicable following the failure by the Issuer to satisfy its obligations under such Warrants deliver or procure delivery of such Entitlement using the method of delivery specified in the applicable Final Terms provided that, if in the opinion of BNPP, delivery of the Entitlement using such method is not practicable by reason of

(x) a Settlement Disruption Event (as defined in Condition 5(C)(2)) or (y) if "Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity" is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, a Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity (as defined in Condition 16(A)), in lieu of such delivery BNPP will make payment in respect of each such Warrant of, in the case of (x) above, the Guaranteed Cash Settlement Amount or, in the case of (y) above, the Failure to Deliver Settlement Price (as defined in Condition 16(C)). Any payment of the Guaranteed Cash Settlement Amount or the Failure to Deliver Settlement Price, as the case may be, in respect of a Warrant shall constitute a complete discharge of BNPP's obligations in respect of such Warrant. Payment of the Guaranteed Cash Settlement Amount as the Failure to Deliver Settlement Price, as the case may be, will be made in such manner as shall be notified to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

4. Definitions

For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, the following general definitions will apply:

"Actual Exercise Date" means the Exercise Date (in the case of European Style Warrants) or, subject to Condition 1, the date during the Exercise Period (in the case of American Style Warrants) on which the Warrant is actually or is deemed exercised or, if Automatic Exercise is specified in the applicable Final Terms, is automatically exercised (as more fully set out in Condition 1);

"Affiliate" means in relation to any entity (the "First Entity"), any entity controlled, directly or indirectly, by the First Entity, any entity that controls, directly or indirectly, the First Entity or any entity directly or indirectly under common control with the First Entity. For these purposes "control" means ownership of a majority of the voting power of an entity;

"Averaging Date" means, in respect of an Actual Exercise Date:

(A) in the case of Index Warrants, Share Warrants, Debt Warrants or Currency Warrants, each date specified as an Averaging Date in the applicable Final Terms or, if any such date is not a Scheduled Trading Day, the immediately following Scheduled Trading Day unless, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent any such day is a Disrupted Day.

If the Warrants are Italian Dematerialised Warrants and Italian Listed Warrants, prior to the Renouncement Notice Cut-off Time as specified in the applicable Final Terms on the Exercise Date, the Holder of a Warrant may renounce automatic exercise of such Warrant by the delivery or sending by fax of a duly completed Renouncement Notice (a "Renouncement Notice") in, or substantially in, the form set out in the applicable Final Terms to the Italian Warrant Agent. Once delivered a Renouncement Notice shall be irrevocable. Any determination as to whether a Renouncement Notice is duly completed and in proper form shall be made by the Italian Warrant Agent (in consultation with Monte Titoli) and shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if applicable, and the relevant Holder. Subject as set out below, any Renouncement Notice so determined to be incomplete or not in proper form shall be null and void. If such Renouncement Notice is subsequently corrected to the satisfaction of the Italian Warrant Agent, it shall be deemed to be a new Renouncement Notice submitted at the time such correction was delivered to the Italian Warrant Agent.

(B) Cash Settlement

If the Warrants are Cash Settled Warrants, each such Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit entitles its Holder, upon due exercise and subject, in the case of Warrants represented by a Clearing System Global Warrant, other than a Rule 144A Global Warrant, or a Registered Warrant, to certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership, and, in the case of Warrants represented by Rule 144A Global Warrants and Private Placement Definitive Warrants, to such certifications as to compliance with U.S. securities laws as BNPP shall require or as shall be set out in the applicable Final Terms, to receive from the Issuer on the Settlement Date a Cash Settlement Amount calculated by the Calculation Agent (which shall not be less than zero) equal unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms to:

(i) where Averaging is not specified in the applicable Final Terms:

(a) if such Warrants are Call Warrants,

(Settlement Price less Exercise Price) multiplied by, in the case of Debt Warrants only, the nominal amount;

(b) if such Warrants are Put Warrants,

(Exercise Price less Settlement Price) multiplied by, in the case of Debt Warrants only, the nominal amount; and

(c) if such Warrants are not Call Warrants or Put Warrants, settlement will be as specified in the applicable Final Terms;

(ii) where Averaging is specified in the applicable Final Terms:

(a) if such Warrants are Call Warrants,

(the arithmetic mean of the Settlement Prices for all the Averaging Dates less Exercise Price) multiplied by, in the case of Debt Warrants only, the nominal amount;

(b) if such Warrants are Put Warrants,

(Exercise Price less the arithmetic mean of the Settlement Prices for all the Averaging Dates) multiplied by, in the case of Debt Warrants only, the nominal amount; and

(c) if such Warrants are not Call Warrants nor Put Warrants, settlement will be as specified in the applicable Final Terms.

Any amount determined pursuant to the above, if not an amount in the Settlement Currency, will be converted into the Settlement Currency at the Exchange Rate specified in the applicable Final Terms for the purposes of determining the Cash Settlement Amount. The Cash Settlement Amount will be rounded to the nearest two decimal places in the relevant Settlement Currency, 0.005 being rounded upwards, with Warrants exercised at the same time by the same Holder being aggregated for the purpose of determining the aggregate Cash Settlement Amounts payable in respect of such Warrants or Units, as the case may be. In such cases, the formula for determining the Cash Settlement Amount may include a deduction for sales tax in the manner specified in the applicable Final Terms.

(C) Physical Settlement

(1) Exercise Rights in relation to Physical Delivery Warrants

If the Warrants are Physical Delivery Warrants, each such Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, as the case may be, entitles its Holder, upon due exercise and subject, in the case of Warrants, represented by a Clearing System Global Warrant, other than a Rule 144A Global Warrant, or a Registered Warrant, to certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership, and, in the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant or a Private Placement Definitive Warrant, to such certifications as to compliance with U.S. securities laws as BNPP shall require or as shall be set out in the applicable Final Terms, to receive from the Issuer on the Settlement Date the Entitlement subject to payment of the relevant Exercise Price and any other sums payable. The method of delivery of the Entitlement is set out in the applicable Final Terms.

Warrants or Units, as the case may be, exercised at the same time by the same Holder will be aggregated for the purpose of determining the aggregate Entitlements in respect of such Warrants or Units, as the case may be, provided that the aggregate Entitlements in respect of the same Holder will be rounded down to the nearest whole unit of the Relevant Asset or each of the Relevant Assets, as the case may be, in such manner as the Calculation Agent shall determine. Therefore, fractions of the Relevant Asset or of each of the Relevant Assets, as the case may be, will not be delivered and no cash adjustment will be made in respect thereof.

Following exercise of a Share Warrant which is a Physical Delivery Warrant, all dividends on the relevant Shares to be delivered will be payable to the party that would receive such dividend according to market practice for a sale of the Shares executed on the relevant Actual Exercise Date and to be delivered in the same manner as such relevant Shares. Any such dividends to be paid to a Holder will be paid to the account specified by the Holder in the relevant Exercise Notice as referred to in Condition 6.

(2) Settlement Disruption

If, following the exercise of Physical Delivery Warrants, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, delivery of the Entitlement using the method of delivery specified in the applicable Final Terms or such commercially reasonable manner as the Calculation Agent has determined is not practicable by reason of a Settlement Disruption Event (as defined below) having occurred and continuing on any Settlement Date, then such Settlement Date for such Warrants shall be postponed to the first following Settlement Business Day in respect of which there is no such Settlement Disruption Event, provided that the Issuer may elect in its sole discretion to satisfy its obligations in respect of the relevant Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, by delivering the Entitlement using such other commercially reasonable manner as it may select and in such event the Settlement Date shall be such day as the Issuer deems appropriate in connection with delivery of the Entitlement in such other commercially reasonable manner. For the avoidance of doubt, where a Settlement Disruption Event affects some but not all of the Relevant Assets comprising the Entitlement, the Settlement Date for the Relevant Assets not affected by the Settlement Disruption Event will be the originally designated Settlement Date. In the event that a Settlement Disruption Event will result in the delivery on a Settlement Date of some but not all of the Relevant Assets comprising the Entitlement, the Calculation Agent shall determine in its discretion the appropriate pro rata

portion of the Exercise Price to be paid by the relevant Holder in respect of that partial settlement. For so long as delivery of the Entitlement is not practicable by reason of a Settlement Disruption Event, then in lieu of physical settlement and notwithstanding any other provision hereof, except in the case of U.S. Warrants (in which case another price or prices will be specified in the applicable Final Terms) the Issuer may elect in its sole discretion to satisfy its obligations in respect of the relevant Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, by payment to the relevant Holder of the Disruption Cash Settlement Price (as defined below) on the fifth Business Day following the date that notice of such election is given to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11. Payment of the Disruption Cash Settlement Price will be made in such manner as shall be notified to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11. The Calculation Agent shall give notice as soon as practicable to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11 that a Settlement Disruption Event has occurred. No Holder shall be entitled to any payment in respect of the relevant Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, in the event of any delay in the delivery of the Entitlement due to the occurrence of a Settlement Disruption Event and no liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer or the Guarantor (if any).

For the purposes hereof:

"Disruption Cash Settlement Price" in respect of any relevant Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, shall be the fair market value of such Warrant or Unit, as the case may be (taking into account, where the Settlement Disruption Event affected some but not all of the Relevant Assets comprising the Entitlement and such non-affected Relevant Assets have been duly delivered as provided above, the value of such Relevant Assets), less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms), all as determined by the Issuer in its sole and absolute discretion, plus, if applicable and if already paid, the Exercise Price (or, where as provided above some Relevant Assets have been delivered, and a pro rata portion thereof has been paid, such pro rata portion);

"Settlement Business Day" in respect of each Warrant, has the meaning specified in the applicable Final Terms relating to such Warrant; and

"Settlement Disruption Event" means, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent or, if the proviso to Condition 3 applies, BNPP, an event beyond the control of the Issuer or, if the proviso to Condition 3 applies, BNPP as a result of which the Issuer or BNPP, as the case may be, cannot make delivery of the Relevant Asset(s) using the method specified in the applicable Final Terms.

(3) Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity

"Failure to Deliver due to Illiquidity" if specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, will be an Additional Disruption Event, as described in Condition 16(A) below.

(D) Variation of Settlement

(i) If the applicable Final Terms indicate that the Issuer has an option to vary settlement in respect of the Warrants (which, unless otherwise specified, will not apply to U.S. Warrants), upon a valid exercise of Warrants in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, the Issuer may at its sole and unfettered discretion in respect of each such Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, elect not to pay the relevant Holders the

Cash Settlement Amount or to deliver or procure delivery of the Entitlement to the relevant Holders, as the case may be, but, in lieu thereof to deliver or procure delivery of the Entitlement or make payment of the Cash Settlement Amount on the Settlement Date to the relevant Holders, as the case may be. Notification of such election will be given to Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

(ii) If specified in the applicable Final Terms, following a valid exercise of Warrants in accordance with these Conditions, the Issuer shall, in respect of each such Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, in lieu of delivering or procuring the delivery of the Entitlement to the relevant Holders, make payment of the Cash Settlement Amount on the Settlement Date to the relevant Holders.

(E) Issuer's Option to Substitute Assets or to pay the Alternate Cash Amount

Following a valid exercise of Warrants in accordance with these Conditions, the Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion in respect of such Warrants, if the Calculation Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the Relevant Asset or Relevant Assets, as the case may be, comprise(s) shares which are not freely tradable, elect either (i) to substitute for the Relevant Asset or the Relevant Assets, as the case may be, an equivalent value (as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) of such other shares which the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, are freely tradable (the "Substitute Asset" or the "Substitute Assets", as the case may be) or (ii) not to deliver or procure the delivery of the Entitlement or the Substitute Asset or Substitute Assets, as the case may be, to the relevant Holders, but in lieu thereof to make payment to the relevant Holders on the Settlement Date of an amount equal to the fair market value of the Entitlement on the Valuation Date as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion by reference to such sources as it considers appropriate (the "Alternate Cash Amount"). Notification of any such election will be given to Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

For purposes hereof, a "freely tradable" share shall mean (i) with respect to the United States, a share which is registered under the Securities Act or not restricted under the Securities Act and which is not purchased from the issuer of such share and not purchased from an affiliate of the issuer of such share or which otherwise meets the requirements of a freely tradable share for purposes of the Securities Act, in each case, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion or (ii) with respect to any other jurisdiction, a share not subject to any legal restrictions on transfer in such jurisdiction.

(F) General

In relation to any Cash Settled Warrants where Automatic Exercise is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms, the expressions "exercise", "due exercise" and related expressions shall be construed to apply to any such Cash Settled Warrants which are automatically exercised in accordance with the above provisions.

None of the Issuers, the Guarantor, the Calculation Agent and any Warrant Agent shall have any responsibility for any errors or omissions in the calculation of any Cash Settlement Amount or of any Entitlement.

The purchase of Warrants does not confer on any Holder of such Warrants any rights (whether in respect of voting, distributions or otherwise) attaching to any Relevant Asset.

All references in this Condition to "Luxembourg or Brussels time" or "New York time" shall, where Warrants are cleared through an additional or alternative clearing system, be deemed to refer as appropriate to the time in the city where the relevant clearing system is located.

(E) Verification of the Holder

In the case of Clearing System Warrants (other than Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC), upon receipt of an Exercise Notice, the relevant Clearing System (in the case of English Law Warrants) or the relevant Account Holder (in the case of French Law Warrants) shall verify that the person exercising the Warrants is the holder thereof according to the books of such Clearing System (in the case of English Law Warrants) or in the accounts of the relevant Account Holders (in the case of French Law Warrants). Subject thereto, the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder will confirm to the Principal Warrant Agent the series number and the number of Warrants being exercised and the account details, if applicable, for the payment of the Cash Settlement Amount or, as the case may be, the details for the delivery of the Entitlement of each Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, being exercised. Upon receipt of such confirmation, the Principal Warrant Agent will inform the Issuer thereof. The relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder will on or before the Settlement Date debit the securities account of the relevant Holder with the Warrants being exercised. If the Warrants are American Style Warrants, upon exercise of less than all the English Law Warrants constituted by the Clearing System Global Warrant, the Common Depositary will, on the instructions of, and on behalf of the Principal Warrant Agent, note such exercise on the Schedule to such Clearing System Global Warrant and the number of Warrants so constituted shall be reduced by the cancellation pro tanto of the Warrants so exercised.

In the case of Registered Warrants, upon receipt of an Exercise Notice, the Registrar shall verify that the person exercising the Warrants is the Holder according to the Register. Subject thereto, the Registrar shall confirm to the Issuer and the Agent the series number and the number of Warrants being exercised and the account details, if applicable, for the payment of the Cash Settlement Amount or, as the case may be, the details for delivery of the Entitlement of each Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, being exercised. The Registrar will on or before the Settlement Date remove from the Register the Warrants being exercised. If the Warrants are American Style Warrants, upon exercise of less than all the Warrants constituted by the Registered Global Warrant, the Registrar will note such exercise on the Schedule to the Registered Global Warrant and the number of Warrants so constituted shall be reduced by the cancellation pro tanto of the Warrants so exercised.

In the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, upon receipt of an Exercise Notice, the New York Warrant Agent shall verify that the person exercising the Warrants is the Holder according to the records of DTC. Subject thereto, the New York Warrant Agent shall notify BNPP of the number of Warrants being exercised and the account details, if applicable, for the payment of the Cash Settlement Amount or, as the case may be, the details for delivery of the Entitlement in respect of each Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, being exercised. If the Warrants are American Style Warrants, upon exercise of less than all the Warrants constituted by the Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, the New York Warrant Agent will note such exercise on the Schedule to such Rule 144A Global Warrant and the number of Warrants so constituted shall be reduced by the cancellation pro tanto of the Warrants so exercised.

In the case of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, upon receipt of an Exercise Notice, the Definitive Warrant Agent shall verify that the person exercising the Warrants is the Holder according to the Private Placement Register. Subject thereto, the Definitive Warrant Agent shall notify BNPP of the number of Warrants being exercised and the account details, if applicable, for the payment of the Cash Settlement Amount, or, as the case may be, the details for delivery of the Entitlement in respect of each Warrant or Unit being exercised. If the Warrants are American Style Warrants, upon exercise of less than all the Warrants constituted by such Private Placement Definitive Warrant, the Holder will surrender such Private Placement Definitive Warrant and BNPP shall execute and the Definitive Warrant Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder a new Private Placement Definitive Warrant, in an amount equal to, and in exchange for, the unexercised portion of the Private Placement Definitive Warrant being surrendered. Notwithstanding any other provision set out herein, Private Placement Definitive Warrants may only be exercised in a notional amount of at least U.S. $250,000, and the remaining unexercised portion thereof must be at least U.S. $250,000.

In the case of Italian Dematerialised Warrants, upon receipt of an Exercise Notice, the Italian Warrant Agent shall verify that the person exercising the Warrants is the holder thereof according to the records of Monte Titoli. Subject thereto, Monte Titoli will confirm to the Italian Warrant Agent the series number and the number of Warrants being exercised and the account details for the payment of the Cash Settlement Amount. Upon such verification, the Italian Warrant Agent will inform the Issuer thereof. Monte Titoli will on or before the Settlement Date debit the securities account of the relevant Holder with the Warrants being exercised and accordingly reduce the number of Warrants of the relevant series by the cancellation pro tanto of the Warrants so exercised.

(F) Settlement

(1) Cash Settled Warrants

If the Warrants are Cash Settled Warrants other than VPC Warrants or Italian Dematerialised Warrants, the Issuer shall on the Settlement Date pay or cause to be paid the Cash Settlement Amount (if any) for each duly exercised Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, to the Holder's account specified in the relevant Exercise Notice for value on the Settlement Date less any Exercise Expenses.

If the Warrants are VPC Warrants, payment of the Cash Settlement Amount (if any) will be made to the persons registered as Holders in the register maintained by VPC on the fifth Business Day immediately prior to the Settlement Date (the "Record Date"). The VPC Warrant Agent will pay the Cash Settlement Amount through VPC to each Holder appearing in the VPC Register on the Record Date on the Settlement Date.

If the Warrants are Italian Dematerialised Warrants, the Issuer shall on the Settlement Date pay or cause to be paid the Cash Settlement Amount (if any) for each duly exercised Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, by credit or transfer to the Holder's account at Monte Titoli for value on the Settlement Date less any Exercise Expenses. The Issuer or the Guarantor will be discharged by payment to, or to the order of, Monte Titoli in respect of the amount so paid. Each of the persons shown in the records of Monte Titoli as the holder of a particular amount of the Warrants must look solely to Monte Titoli for his share of each such payment so made to, or to the order of, Monte Titoli.

(2) Physical Delivery Warrants

Subject to payment of the aggregate Exercise Prices and payment of any Exercise Expenses with regard to the relevant Warrants or Units, as the case may be, the Issuer shall on the Settlement Date deliver, or procure the delivery of, the Entitlement for each duly exercised Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, pursuant to the details specified in the Exercise Notice. Subject as provided in Condition 5(C), the Entitlement shall be delivered and evidenced in such manner as set out in the applicable Final Terms.

(G) Determinations

Any determination as to whether an Exercise Notice is duly completed and in proper form shall be made by (i) in the case of Clearing System Warrants (other than Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC), the relevant Clearing System (in the case of English Law Warrants other than English Law Warrants held through Euroclear France) or the relevant Account Holder (in the case of Euroclear France Warrants), (ii) in the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, the New York Warrant Agent, (iii) in the case of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, the Definitive Warrant Agent, (iv) in the case of Registered Warrants, the Registrar, in each case, in consultation with the Principal Warrant Agent) or (v) in the case of Italian Dematerialised Warrants, the Italian Warrant Agent (in consultation with Monte Titoli) and shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Warrant Agents and the relevant Holder. Subject as set out below, any Exercise Notice so determined to be incomplete or not in proper form, or which is not copied to the Principal Warrant Agent or the Issuer, as the case may be immediately after being delivered or sent to the relevant Clearing System, the New York Warrant Agent or the Definitive Warrant Agent or the Italian Warrant Agent, as the case may be, or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder as provided in Condition 6(A) above or the Registrar as provided in Condition 6(C) above, as the case may be, shall be null and void. In the case of Italian Dematerialised Warrants, the Italian Warrant Agent shall use its best efforts promptly to notify the Holder submitting an Exercise Notice if, in consultation with Monte Titoli, it has determined that such Exercise Notice is incomplete or not in proper form. In the absence of negligence or wilful misconduct on its part, none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Italian Warrant Agents or Monte Titoli shall be liable to any person with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with such determination or the notification of such determination to a Holder.

If such Exercise Notice is subsequently corrected to the satisfaction of the relevant Clearing System, the New York Warrant Agent, the Definitive Warrant Agent, the relevant Account Holder or the Registrar or the Italian Warrant Agent, as the case may be, in consultation with the Principal Warrant Agent, it shall be deemed to be a new Exercise Notice submitted at the time such correction was delivered to the relevant Clearing System, the New York Warrant Agent, the Definitive Warrant

Agent, the relevant Account Holder or the Registrar or the Italian Warrant Agent, as the case may be, and the Principal Warrant Agent or the Issuer, as the case may be.

If (i) the Warrants are Cash Settled Warrants and Automatic Exercise is not specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms or (ii) the Warrants are Physical Delivery Warrants, any Warrant with respect to which the Exercise Notice has not been duly completed and delivered in the manner set out above by the cut-off time specified in Condition 5(A)(1), in the case of American Style Warrants, or Condition 5(A)(2), in the case of European Style Warrants, shall become void.

The relevant Clearing System, the New York Warrant Agent or the Definitive Warrant Agent or the Italian Warrant Agent (in the case of English Law Warrants other than English Law Warrants held through Euroclear France) or the relevant Account Holder (in the case of Euroclear France Warrants) or the Registrar, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts promptly to notify the Holder submitting an Exercise Notice if, in consultation with the Principal Warrant Agent or the Issuer, as the case may be, it has determined that such Exercise Notice is incomplete or not in proper form. In the absence of negligence or wilful misconduct on its part, none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Warrant Agents, the Registrar or the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder shall be liable to any person with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with such determination or the notification of such determination to a Holder.

(H) Delivery of an Exercise Notice

Delivery of an Exercise Notice shall constitute an irrevocable election by the relevant Holder to exercise the Warrants specified. After the delivery of such Exercise Notice, such exercising Holder may not transfer such Warrants.

(I) Automatic Exercise

(1) This Condition only applies if the Warrants are Cash Settled Warrants which are not VPC Warrants or Italian Dematerialised Warrants, Automatic Exercise is specified as applying in the applicable Final Terms and Warrants are automatically exercised as provided in Condition 5(A)(1) or Condition 5(A)(2).

(2) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms, no Exercise Notice is required to be submitted or any other action required to be taken (in the case of Clearing System Warrants other than Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC) by any relevant Holder of a Warrant in order to receive the Cash Settlement Amount in respect of such Warrant, or if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, a Unit, as the case may be. The Issuer shall transfer or cause to be transferred to each Clearing System through which such Warrants are held an amount equal to the aggregate of the Cash Settlement Amounts in respect of the Warrants held in each such Clearing System and each such Clearing System shall, subject to having received such aggregate Cash Settlement Amount, on the Settlement Date credit the account of each Holder of such Warrant(s) in its books with an amount equal to the aggregate Cash Settlement Amount relating to the Warrant(s) held by such Holder and on or before the Settlement Date debit such account with the number of Warrants exercised and in respect of which such Cash Settlement Amount is being paid. Neither the Issuer nor, if applicable, the Guarantor shall have any responsibility for the crediting by the relevant Clearing System of any such amounts to any such accounts.

(3) Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms in order to receive the Cash Settlement Amount in respect of a Warrant, or if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, a Unit, as the case may be, the relevant Holder must (A) (x) in the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, deliver by facsimile a duly completed Exercise Notice to the New York Warrant Agent with a copy to the Principal Warrant Agent or (y) in the case of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, deliver by facsimile a duly completed Exercise Notice together with the relevant Private Placement Definitive Warrant to the Definitive Warrant Agent with a copy to the Principal Warrant Agent, on any Business Day in New York until not later than 5.00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day in New York immediately preceding the day (the "Cut-off Date") falling 180 days after (i) the Expiration Date, in the case of American Style Warrants, or (ii) the Actual Exercise Date, in the case of European Style Warrants, or (B) in the case of Registered Warrants, deliver in writing a duly completed Exercise Notice to the Registrar with a copy to the Principal Warrant Agent, on any Business Day until not later than 10.00 a.m., Tokyo time, on the Cut-off Date (as defined above). The Exercise Notice shall include the applicable information set out in the Exercise Notice referred to in Condition 6(A)(1), Condition 6(A)(2), Condition 6(A)(3), Condition 6(B)(1), Condition 6(B)(2), Condition 6(B)(3), Condition 6(C)(1), Condition 6(C)(2) or Condition 6(C)(3), as applicable. The Business Day during the period from the Expiration Date or the Actual Exercise Date, as the case may be, until the Cut-off Date on which an Exercise Notice is delivered to the relevant Clearing System, the New York Warrant Agent, the Definitive Warrant Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder, or in the case of Registered Warrants, the Registrar, and a copy thereof delivered to the Principal Warrant Agent is referred to in this Condition 6(I) as the "Exercise Notice Delivery Date", provided that, (i) in the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, if the Exercise Notice is received by the New York Warrant Agent or the copy thereof is received by the Principal Warrant Agent, in each case, after 5.00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day in New York, such Exercise Notice shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next Business Day in New York, and the Business Day in New York immediately succeeding such next Business Day in New York shall be deemed to be the Exercise Notice Delivery Date, (ii) in the case of Private Placement Definitive Warrants, if the Exercise Notice is received by the Definitive Warrant Agent or the copy thereof received by the Principal Warrant Agent after 5.00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day in New York, such Exercise Notice shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next Business Day in New York, and the Business Day in New York immediately succeeding such next Business Day in New York shall be deemed to be the Exercise Notice Delivery Date and (iii) in the case of Registered Warrants, if the Exercise Notice is received by the Registrar or the copy thereof received by the Principal Warrant Agent after 10.00 a.m., Tokyo time, on any Business Day, such Exercise Notice shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next Business Day, which Business Day shall be deemed to be the Exercise Notice Delivery Date.

Subject to the relevant Holder performing its obligations in respect of the relevant Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, in accordance with these Conditions, the Settlement Date for such Warrants or Units, as the case may be, shall be the fifth Business Day following the Exercise Notice Delivery Date. In the event that a Holder does not, where applicable, so deliver an Exercise Notice in accordance with this Condition 6(I) prior to (i) in the case of Warrants represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC or Private Placement Definitive Warrants, 5.00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day in New York immediately preceding the Cut-off Date or (ii) in the case of Registered

Warrants, 10.00 a.m., Tokyo time, on the Cut-off Date, the Issuer's obligations in respect of such Warrants shall be discharged and no further liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer or the Guarantor, if any. For the avoidance of doubt, a Holder shall not be entitled to any payment, whether of interest or otherwise, in respect of the period from the Actual Exercise Date to the Settlement Date.

(J) Exercise Risk

Exercise of the Warrants is subject to all applicable laws, regulations and practices in force on the relevant Exercise Date and none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Registrar or the Warrant Agents shall incur any liability whatsoever if it is unable to effect the transactions contemplated, after using all reasonable efforts, as a result of any such laws, regulations or practices. None of the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, or the Agents shall under any circumstances be liable for any acts or defaults of the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder in relation to the performance of its duties in relation to the Warrants.

7. Minimum and Maximum Number of Warrants Exercisable

(A) American Style Warrants

This Condition 7(A) applies only to American Style Warrants.

(1) The number of Warrants exercisable by any Holder on any Actual Exercise Date or, in the case of Automatic Exercise, the number of Warrants held by any Holder on any Actual Exercise Date, in each case as determined by the Issuer, must not be less than the Minimum Exercise Number specified in the applicable Final Terms and, if specified in the applicable Final Terms, if a number greater than the Minimum Exercise Number, must be an integral multiple of the number specified in the applicable Final Terms. Any Exercise Notice which purports to exercise Warrants in breach of this provision shall be void and of no effect.

(2) If the Issuer determines that the number of Warrants being exercised on any Actual Exercise Date by any Holder or a group of Holders (whether or not acting in concert) exceeds the Maximum Exercise Number (a number equal to the Maximum Exercise Number being the "Quota"), the Issuer may deem the Actual Exercise Date for the first Quota of such Warrants, selected at the discretion of the Issuer, to be such day and the Actual Exercise Date for each additional Quota of such Warrants (and any remaining number thereof) to be each of the succeeding Exercise Business Days until all such Warrants have been attributed with an Actual Exercise Date, provided, however, that the deemed Actual Exercise Date for any such Warrants which would thereby fall after the Expiration Date shall fall on the Expiration Date. In any case where more than the Quota of Warrants are exercised on the same day by Xxxxxx(s), the order of settlement in respect of such Warrants shall be at the sole discretion of the Issuer.

(B) European Style Warrants

This Condition 7(B) applies only to European Style Warrants.

The number of Warrants exercisable by any Holder on the Exercise Date, as determined by the Issuer, must be equal to the Minimum Exercise Number specified in the applicable Final Terms and, if specified in the applicable Final Terms, if a number greater than the Minimum Exercise Number,

must be an integral multiple of the number specified in the applicable Final Terms. Any Exercise Notice which purports to exercise Warrants in breach of this provision shall be void and of no effect.

8. Illegality and Force Majeure

(A) Illegality

If the Issuer determines that the performance of its obligations under the Warrants has become illegal in whole or in part for any reason, the Issuer may cancel the Warrants by giving notice to Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

Should any one or more of the provisions contained in these Terms and Conditions be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected thereby.

If the Issuer cancels the Warrants then the Issuer will, if and to the extent permitted by applicable law, and except as may be limited in the case of U.S. Warrants, pay an amount to each Holder in respect of each Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, as the case may be, held by such Holder, which amount shall be the fair market value of a Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, notwithstanding such illegality less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements plus, if applicable and if already paid by or on behalf of the Holder, the Exercise Price, all as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion. Payment will be made in such manner as shall be notified to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

(B) Force Majeure

If the Issuer determines that by reason of force majeure or act of state occurring after the Trade Date it becomes impossible or impracticable to perform in whole or in part its obligations under the Warrants and/or any related hedging arrangements, the Issuer may cancel the Warrants by giving notice to Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

If the Issuer cancels the Warrants then the Issuer will, if and to the extent possible or practicable, pay an amount (if any) to each Holder in respect of each Warrant or, if Units are specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Unit, as the case may be, held by such Holder, which amount shall be the fair market value (if any) of a Warrant or Unit, as the case may be, taking into account such force majeure or act of state less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements plus, if applicable and if already paid by or on behalf of the Holder, the Exercise Price, all as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole and absolute discretion. Any payment will be made in such manner as shall be notified to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

9. Purchases

The Issuer may, but is not obliged to, at any time purchase Warrants at any price in the open market or by tender or private treaty. Any Warrants so purchased may be held or resold or surrendered for cancellation; provided, however, that Warrants so purchased may only be resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A, Regulation S, or otherwise thereunder.

10. Warrant Agents, Registrar, Determinations, Meetings Provisions and Modifications

(A) Warrant Agents and Registrar

The specified offices of each of the Warrant Agents and the Registrar are as set out at the end of these Terms and Conditions.

Each of the Issuer and the Guarantor, if any, reserves the right at any time to vary or terminate the appointment of any Warrant Agent or the Registrar and to appoint further or additional Warrant Agents or a further or additional Registrar, provided that no termination of appointment of the Warrant Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be, shall become effective until a replacement Warrant Agent or a replacement Registrar, as the case may be, shall have been appointed and provided that, so long as any of the Warrants are listed on a stock exchange, there shall be a Warrant Agent having a specified office in each location required by the rules and regulations of the relevant stock exchange and, if the Warrants are Registered Warrants, there shall be a Registrar. So long as any of the Warrants are Private Placement Definitive Warrants, there shall be a Definitive Warrant Agent, and so long as any of the Warrants are represented by a Rule 144A Global Warrant held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, there shall be a New York Warrant Agent. Notice of any termination of appointment and of any changes in the specified office of any of the Warrant Agents or the Registrar will be given to Holders in accordance with Condition 11. In acting under the Agency Agreement, the Warrant Agent and the Registrar act solely as agents of the Issuer and the Guarantor, if any, and do not assume any obligation or duty to, or any relationship of agency or trust for or with, the Holders and any determinations and calculations made in respect of the Warrants by the Warrant Agent or the Registrar shall (save in the case of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, and the respective Holders.

In the case of VPC Warrants the relevant Issuer is entitled to vary or terminate the appointment of the VPC Warrant Agent, provided that it appoints another VPC Warrant Agent that is duly authorised under the SFIA Act as an account operator.

(B) Calculation Agent

In relation to each issue of Warrants, the Calculation Agent (whether it be BNP Paribas, BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC or another entity) acts solely as agent of the Issuer and the Guarantor, if any, and does not assume any obligation or duty to, or any relationship of agency or trust for or with, the Holders. All calculations and determinations made in respect of the Warrants by the Calculation Agent shall (save in the case of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, and the Holders. Because the Calculation Agent may be an affiliate of the Issuers, potential conflicts of interest may exist between the Calculation Agent and the Holders, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the Calculation Agent must make.

The Calculation Agent may, with the consent of the Issuer, delegate any of its obligations and functions to a third party as it deems appropriate.

(C) Determinations by the Issuer and the Guarantor

Any determination made by the Issuer or the Guarantor, if any, pursuant to these Terms and Conditions shall (save in the case of manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, and the Holders.

(D) Meetings of Holders

(i) English Law Warrants

The Agency Agreement contains provisions for convening meetings of the Holders of English Law Warrants of a series to consider any matter affecting their interests, including the sanctioning by Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Agency Agreement) of a modification of the Terms and Conditions or the Agency Agreement. At least 21 days' notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and of the day on which the meeting is held) specifying the date, time and place of the meeting shall be given to Holders. Such a meeting may be convened by the Issuer, the Guarantor or Holders holding not less than 5 per cent. (by number) of the Warrants for the time being remaining unexercised. The quorum at a meeting of the Holders (except for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution) will be two or more persons holding or representing not less than 20 per cent. (by number) of the Warrants for the time being remaining unexercised, or at any adjourned meeting two or more persons being or representing Holders whatever the number of Warrants so held or represented. The quorum at a meeting of Holders for the purpose of passing an Extraordinary Resolution will be two or more persons holding or representing not less than 50 per cent. (by number) of the Warrants for the time being remaining unexercised or at any adjourned meeting two or more persons being holding or representing not less than 10 per cent. (by number) of the Warrants for the time being remaining unexercised. A resolution will be an Extraordinary Resolution when it has been passed at a duly convened meeting by not less than three fourths of the votes cast by Holders at such meeting who, being entitled to do so, vote in person or by proxy. An Extraordinary Resolution passed at any meeting of the Holders shall be binding on all the Holders, whether or not they are present at the meeting, save for those Warrants remaining unexercised but for which an Exercise Notice shall have been received as described in Condition 6 prior to the date of the meeting. Warrants which have not been exercised but in respect of which an Exercise Notice has been received as described in Condition 6 will not confer the right to attend or vote at, or join in convening, or be counted in the quorum for, any meeting of the Holders. Resolutions can be passed in writing if passed unanimously.

(ii) French Law Warrants

(a) Representation

In respect of any series of French Law Warrants, Holders shall not be grouped automatically for the defence of their common interests in a masse constituting a separate legal body and governed by the provisions of Articles L.228-46 et seq of the French Code de commerce. Consequently the Holders shall not be represented by any representative of such body.

However, general meetings of Holders (a "General Meeting") may be convened to consider some matters relating to any series of French Law Warrants as provided hereunder.

(b) Powers of the General Meetings

The General Meeting is empowered to deliberate on any proposal relating to any matter affecting the interests of the Holders of the French Law Warrants and their

rights, actions and benefits which now or in the future may accrue with respect to the Warrants, including the:

(A) power to agree to any modification of the Warrants including but not limited to, a modification of the Exercise Price, Exercise Period, Cash Settlement Amount, Entitlement, Expiration Date, Settlement Date or more generally the modification of any term which can affect the amount to be paid under a Warrant or the scheduled payment date, which is proposed by the Issuer;

(B) power to give any authority or approval which under the provisions of this Condition 10(D)(ii) is required to be given by a resolution of the General Meeting;

(C) power to appoint any persons (whether Holders or not) as a committee or committees to confer upon any such committee or committees any powers or discretions which the Holders could themselves exercise by a resolution of the General Meeting; and

(D) power to approve any contractual compromise or arrangement proposed to be made between the Issuer and the relevant Holders in respect of the rights of the Holders against the Issuer or against any of its property.

It is specified, however, that a General Meeting may not:

(E) appoint any person as the representative of the Holders of any series for all actions intended to defend the common interests of the Holders, and particularly to bring any court or arbitration action or proceedings, against the Issuer or any Agent; and

(F) agree on (1) any modification of the majority required to pass a resolution of the General Meeting, (2) any proposal relating to a change in the Issuer's corporate purpose or status, (3) any proposal for a settlement or a transaction concerning disputed rights or rights in respect of which court decisions have been handed down, or (4) proposals to merge or demerge the Issuer.

Any resolution passed at a General Meeting of the Holders of a given series of French Law Warrants, duly convened and held in accordance with the provisions of this Condition, shall be binding upon all the Holders of such series of French Law Warrants whether present or not present at the meeting and whether or not voting and each of them shall be bound to give effect to the resolution accordingly and the passing of any resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances justify its passing.

General Meetings may deliberate validly on first convocation only if Holders present or represented hold at least a fifth of the Warrants then outstanding. On second convocation, no quorum shall be required. Decisions at meetings shall be taken by a two-third majority of votes cast by Holders attending such General Meetings or represented thereat.

Decisions of General Meetings must be published in accordance with the provisions set forth in Condition 11 by the Issuer within 14 calendar days of the result being known provided that non-publication shall not invalidate the resolution.

(c) Convening and holding of the General Meeting

The General Meeting shall be convened by an authorised representative of the Issuer or by the liquidators or natural or physical persons performing equivalent functions during any possible winding-up or equivalent insolvency period and held, all with the same formal and deadline conditions as the shareholders' meetings of the Issuer including the provisions of Articles R. 225-66, R. 225-95, R. 225-101, R. 225-106 and R. 225-107 but excluding the provisions of Articles R. 225-72 to R. 225-74 of the French Code de commerce.

Any meeting unduly convened may be cancelled. However, the action to cancel this shall not be admissible when all the Holders of the relevant series are present or represented.

The day, time and place of the meeting and agenda of a meeting are determined at its discretion by the person convening it. However, one or more Holders holding at least one thirtieth of the relevant series of Warrants then outstanding are entitled to require that draft resolutions be placed on the agenda. Such resolutions are placed on the agenda and put to the vote by the chairman of the meeting. The meeting shall not deliberate on an item which is not placed on the agenda. The agenda for the meeting may be amended on a second convening.

The meeting shall be chaired by a representative of the Issuer.

An attendance sheet is kept for each meeting. The decisions taken at each meeting are recorded in minutes signed by the members of the committee which are entered in a special register kept at the registered office of the Issuer.

The rights of each Holder to participate in General Meetings will be evidenced by the entries in the books of the relevant Account Holder of the name of such Holder on the third business day in Paris preceding the date set for the meeting of the

relevant General Meeting at 00:00, Paris time. The voting right in General Meetings shall belong to the bare owner (nu-propriétaire) of the relevant Warrants. Each Warrant shall confer the right to one vote.

If for any reason such process agent ceases to act as such or no longer has an address in England, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor agrees to appoint a substitute process agent and to notify the Holders of English

Law Warrants of such appointment. Nothing in these provisions shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
