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 Document 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 Related 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

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. This risk reflects the nature of a Security as an asset which, other factors held constant, tends to decline in value over time and which may become worthless when it expires or is redeemed. 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), 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).

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 or credit risk of the Underlying Reference 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 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 value of the relevant inflation index or basket of inflation indices will affect the value of Inflation Securities. Fluctuations in 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 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 whose Underlying Reference 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.

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.

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. Options, 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.

Certain Factors Affecting the Value and Trading Price of Securities

Either (1) the Cash Settlement Amount (in the case of Cash Settled Securities) or (2) (i) the difference in the value of the Entitlement and the Exercise Price (in the case of Physical Delivery Warrants) or (ii) the value of the Entitlement (in the case of Physical Delivery Certificates) ((2)(i) or (2)(ii), as applicable, the “Physical Settlement Value”) at any time prior to expiration or redemption is typically expected to be less than the trading price of such Securities at that time. The difference between the trading price and the Cash Settlement Amount or the Physical Settlement Value, as the case may be, will reflect, among other things, the “time value” of the Securities. The “time value” of the Securities will depend partly upon the length of the period remaining to expiration or redemption and expectations concerning the value of the Underlying Reference as specified in the applicable Final Terms. Securities offer hedging and investment

diversification opportunities but also pose some additional risks with regard to interim value. The interim value of the Securities varies with the price level of the Underlying Reference as specified in the applicable Final Terms, as well as by a number of other interrelated factors, including those specified herein.

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.

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.

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.

Certain Additional Risk Factors Associated with Currency Securities

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 non-U.S. currencies or particular currency indices are subsequently issued, the supply of warrants and options relating to such non-U.S. 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 Additional Risk Factors relating to Credit Linked Securities

The Issuers may issue Securities where the amount payable is dependent upon whether certain events (“Credit Events”) have occurred in respect of a specified entity (the “reference entity”) and, if so, on the value of certain

specified assets of the reference entity or where, if such events have occurred, such Issuers’ obligation is to deliver certain specified assets.

The price of such Securities may be volatile and will be affected by, amongst other things, the time remaining to the settlement date or redemption date and the creditworthiness of the reference entity which in turn may be affected by the economic, financial and political events in one or more jurisdictions.

Where the Securities provide for physical delivery, the Issuer may determine that the specified assets to be delivered are 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. 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 Securities and, in the case of payment of a cash amount, will affect the timing of the valuation of such Securities and as a result, the amount payable on exercise or redemption. Prospective purchasers should review the Terms and Conditions of the Securities and the applicable Final Terms to ascertain whether and how such provisions should apply to the Securities.

The Issuer’s obligations in respect of Credit Linked Securities 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.

Possible Illiquidity of the Securities in the Secondary Market

It is not possible 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 the Securities on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to admit the Securities for trading described herein on the “Bourse de Luxembourg” (the “Regulated Market”) and/or the EuroMTF Market, as the case may be, 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 obliged to, 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. 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. To the extent that an issue of Securities 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.

Potential Conflicts of Interest

BNPP B.V., BNPP and their affiliates (including, if applicable, any Manager) may also engage in trading activities (including hedging activities) related to the Underlying Reference or Reference Entity of any Securities and other instruments or derivative products based on or related 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 of Securities. 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 related 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. 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 Issuers, 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 or a Settlement Disruption 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.

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 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 such Valuation Date, such Averaging Date or such Observation Date, any consequential postponement of 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 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

In the case of Share Securities, except as may be limited in the case of U.S. Securities, following the declaration by the Basket Company or Share Company, 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 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) 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.

Other Events relating to Share Securities

In the case of Share Securities, if a Merger Event, Tender Offer, De-Listing, Nationalisation or Insolvency occurs in relation to a 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

(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 relating to a basket of 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 Issuer's funding cost at such time or (y) if greater, the Notional Amount.

Commodity Securities and Market Disruption Event

If a Disappearance of Commodity Reference Price, or a Material Change in Formula, or a Material Change in Content, 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 redeem all but not some only of the Certificates, each Certificate being redeemed by payment of an amount equal to the fair market value of such Certificate, 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 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.

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 Issuers may, in their 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 Issuers may, in their 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, comprises 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.

Formula Linked Interest: no Interest Amount may be payable on any Interest Payment Date

If any Interest Amount is payable in respect of any Certificates, investors may not be entitled to receive any such Interest Amount on the relevant dates in certain specified circumstances so indicated in the Final Terms.

Interest linked to a Relevant Factor

The relevant Issuer may issue Certificates with interest determined by reference to an index or formula, to changes in the prices of securities or commodities, to movements in currency exchange rates or other factors (each, a “Relevant Factor”). In addition, the relevant Issuer may issue Certificates with interest payable in one or more currencies which may be different from the currency in which the Certificates are denominated. 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) a Relevant Factor may be subject to significant fluctuations that may not correlate with changes in interest rates, currencies or other indices;

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

(vi) the timing of changes in a Relevant Factor 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 Relevant Factor, 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 Relevant Factor 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 to 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.

The Final 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 and in certain circumstances significantly less than the value of the Holder’s investment in the relevant Securities.

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 however 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) and consequently loss of investment or profit by an investor may be higher for certain developing or emerging markets such as the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, India, People’s Republic of China, Korea, Taiwan and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. 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.

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.

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 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 exercise of Warrants arising from any daily maximum exercise limitation, the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event or 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.

The applicable Final Terms in relation to any issue of Certificates may specify other terms and conditions which shall, to the extent so specified or to the extent inconsistent with the following Terms and Conditions, replace or modify the following Terms and Conditions for the purpose of such Certificates.

The series of Certificates described in the applicable Final Terms (in so far as it relates to such series of Certificates) (such Certificates being hereinafter referred to as the “Certificates”) are issued by whichever of BNP Paribas Arbitrage Issuance B.V. (“BNPP B.V.”) or BNP Paribas (“BNPP”) is specified as the Issuer in the applicable Final Terms (as defined below) (the “Issuer”) and references to the Issuer shall be construed accordingly. Rule 144A Certificates and Private Placement Definitive Certificates (each, as defined below) may be issued by BNPP only. The Certificates are issued pursuant to an Agency Agreement dated 30 May 2007 (as amended and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Agency Agreement”) between BNPP B.V. as issuer, BNPP as issuer and, where the Issuer is BNPP B.V., as guarantor (in such capacity, the “Guarantor”), BNP Paribas Securities Services, Luxembourg Branch as agent (if specified in the applicable Final Terms as Agent in respect of the Certificates, the “Principal Certificate Agent”, BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC as agent (if specified in the applicable Final Terms as Agent in respect of the Certificates, the “Principal Certificate Agent”), The Bank of New York as New York certificate agent (the “New York Certificate Agent”), The Bank of New York as definitive certificate agent (the “Definitive Certificate Agent”) (each, a “Certificate Agent” and collectively, the “Certificate Agents”) and BNP PARIBAS Securities (Japan) Limited as registrar. The expression “Certificate Agent” shall include any additional or successor certificate agent in respect of the Certificates. BNP Paribas or BNP Paribas Arbitrage SNC (as specified in the applicable Final Terms) shall undertake the duties of calculation agent (the “Calculation Agent”) in respect of the Certificates as set out below and in the applicable Final Terms unless another entity is so specified as calculation agent in the applicable Final Terms. The expression Calculation Agent shall, in relation to the relevant Certificates, include such other specified calculation agent. The Agency Agreement will be governed by English Law in the case of English Law Certificates (the “English Law Agency Agreement”) and by French Law in the case of French Law Certificates (as defined in Condition 4 below) (the “French Law Agency Agreement”).

English Law Certificates (as defined in Condition 4 below) are constituted by an English Law clearing system global certificate (each, a “Global Certificate”), as specified in the applicable Final Terms. Except as provided herein, no Certificates in definitive form will be issued.

In the event that the applicable Final Terms specify that Certificates are eligible for sale in the United States (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 Certificates sold in the United States to qualified institutional buyers (“QIBs”) within the meaning of Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A Certificates”) will be represented by

one or more Rule 144A global certificates (each, a “Rule 144A Global Certificate”), (B) the Certificates 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 certificates (the “Private Placement Definitive Certificates”), and (C) in either such case, the Certificates 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 certificates (each, a “Regulation S Global Certificate”). References herein to a Global Certificate include, as the context so requires, a Rule 144A Global Certificate and a Regulation S Global Certificate. In the event that the Final Terms does not specify that Certificates are eligible for sale in the United States or to U.S. persons, the Certificates offered and sold outside the United States to non-U.S. persons under the exemption contained in Regulation S will be represented by a Global Certificate.

In the event that the Certificates are constituted by a Global Certificate, the Global Certificate will be issued and deposited with a common depositary (the “Common Depositary”) on behalf of Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”) and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) and/or any other relevant Clearing System (as defined below).

Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate 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. Certificates represented by a Regulation S Global Certificate will be issued and deposited with the Common Depositary on behalf of Clearstream, Luxembourg and Euroclear and/or any other relevant Clearing System.

Interests in a Rule 144A Global Certificate and a Regulation S Global Certificate may be exchanged for interests in the other Global Certificate only as described herein. Interests in a Global Certificate may be exchanged for Private Placement Definitive Certificates and Private Placement Definitive Certificates may be exchanged for an interest in a Global Certificate only as described herein.

In the case of Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate 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 Certificate, or if at any time DTC ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor depositary is not appointed by BNPP within 90 days of such notice, BNPP will deliver Certificates in definitive registered form (bearing such legends as may be required by BNPP) in exchange for that Rule 144A Global Certificate. Except in these circumstances, owners of beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Certificate held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC will not be entitled to have any portion of such Certificates registered in their name and will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of registered Certificates in definitive form in exchange for their interests in that Rule 144A Global Certificate. Transfer, exercise, settlement and other mechanics related to any Certificates issued in definitive form in exchange for Certificates represented by such Rule 144A Global Certificate shall be as agreed between BNPP and the New York Certificate Agent.

French Law Certificates (as defined in Condition 4 below) are issued in dematerialised form (au porteur). 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 Certificates.

The applicable Final Terms for the Certificates is attached to each Global Certificate and each Private Placement Definitive Certificate and 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 Certificates.

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 certificates issued pursuant to Condition 13 and forming a single series with the Certificates) (which, for

the avoidance of doubt, may be issued in respect of more than one series of Certificates) insofar as they relate to the Certificates.

Subject as provided in Condition 3 and in the Guarantees (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 pursuant to the Guarantee (as defined in Condition 4). The original of each Guarantee is held by BNP Paribas Securities Services, Luxembourg Branch on behalf of the Holders at its specified office.

Copies of the Agency Agreement and the Guarantees will be available for inspection at the specified office of BNP Paribas Securities Services, Luxembourg Branch, and copies of the applicable Final Terms may be obtained from the specified office of the relevant Certificate Agent, save that if the Certificates are unlisted, the applicable Final Terms will only be obtainable by a Holder and such Holder must produce evidence satisfactory to the relevant Certificate Agent as to identity.

Words and expressions defined in the Agency Agreement or used in the applicable Final Terms shall have the same meanings where used in these Terms and Conditions unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise stated.

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 Certificates) and the applicable Final Terms, which are binding on them.

The applicable Final Terms will indicate whether settlement shall be by way of cash payment (“Cash Settled Certificates”) or physical delivery (“Physical Delivery Certificates”), whether Cash Settled Certificates are redeemable in instalments and whether Averaging (“Averaging”) will apply to the Certificates. 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 so specified in the applicable Final Terms, interest shall be payable in respect of the Certificates.

References in these Terms and Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, to Cash Settled Certificates shall be deemed to include references to (a) Physical Delivery Certificates which include an option (as set out in the applicable Final Terms) at the Issuer’s election to request cash settlement of such Certificate pursuant to Condition 7(C)(i) and where settlement is to be by way of cash payment, and (b) Physical Delivery Certificates where settlement is to be automatically varied to be by way of cash payment pursuant to Condition 7(C)(ii). References in these Terms and Conditions, unless the context otherwise requires, to Physical Delivery Certificates shall be deemed to include references to Cash Settled Certificates 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 Certificate pursuant to Condition 7(C)(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. Certificates pursuant to Condition 7(C)(i).

Certificates 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 Certificates where the Holder has elected for cash payment will be Cash Settled Certificates and those Certificates where the Holder has elected for physical delivery will be Physical Delivery Certificates. 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 these Conditions.

(B) Title to Certificates

In the case of Certificates represented by a Global Certificate held by a Common Depository on behalf of a relevant Clearing System and French Law Certificates, each person who is for the time being shown in the records of the relevant Clearing System (in the case of English Law Certificates) or whose name appears in the account of the relevant Account Holder (in the case of French Law Certificates) as the holder of a particular amount of Certificates (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 Certificates standing to the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall (except as otherwise required by law) be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, and the relevant Certificate Agent as the Holder of such amount of Certificates for all purposes (and the expressions “Holder” and “Holder of Certificates” and related expressions shall be construed accordingly).

In addition, title to French Law Certificates 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 Certificates. Certificates 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/or any other relevant Clearing System.

In the case of Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, the Rule 144A Global Certificate 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 Certificate may be registered. Transfers of such Rule 144A Global Certificate by such nominee of DTC shall be limited to transfers of such Global Certificate, 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 Certificate are only enforceable by the Holders (as defined below) as provided therein. Subject as set forth in Condition 1(C) below, each person who is for the time being shown in the records of DTC as the Holder of a particular amount of Certificates shall (except as otherwise required by law) be treated by the Issuer and the New York Certificate Agent as the Holder of such amount of Certificates for all purposes (and the expressions “Holder” and “Holder of Certificates” and related expressions shall be construed accordingly).

In the case of Private Placement Definitive Certificates, BNPP shall cause to be kept at the principal office of the Definitive Certificate Agent, a register (the “Private Placement Register”) on which shall be entered the names and addresses of all holders of Private Placement Definitive Certificates, the amount and type of Private Placement Definitive Certificates held by them and details of all transfers of Private Placement Definitive Certificates. Subject as set forth in Condition 1(C) 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 Certificates 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.

Transfers of Certificates may not be effected after the redemption of such Certificates pursuant to Condition 6.

Subject as set forth in this Condition, all transactions (including permitted transfers of Certificates) in the open market or otherwise must be effected, in the case of Certificates represented by a Global Certificate held by a Common Depository on behalf of Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear and/or any other relevant Clearing System through an account at Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear, as the case may be, or, in the case of Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC through a direct or indirect participant of DTC, subject to and in accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of the relevant Clearing System(s). Transfers in respect of Certificates represented by a French Law Global Certificate must be effected through Account Holders(s). Title will pass upon registration of the transfer in the books of the relevant Clearing System.

Any reference herein to Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or Euroclear and/or DTC and/or any other relevant Clearing System shall, whenever the context so permits, be deemed to include a reference to any additional or alternative clearing system approved by the Issuer and the Principal Certificate Agent from time to time and notified to the Holders in accordance with Condition 11.

Subject as set forth in this Condition, Private Placement Definitive Certificates may be transferred by the then current Holder surrendering its Private Placement Definitive Certificate for registration of transfer at the specified office of the Definitive Certificate Agent, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer (in the form satisfactory to BNPP and the Definitive Certificate Agent), duly executed by the Holder or its duly authorised agent. Private Placement Definitive Certificates may only be issued and transferred in minimum nominal amounts of $250,000.

2. Status of the Certificates and Guarantee

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

5. Interest

(A) Interest Amount

If so specified in the applicable Final Terms, each Certificate pays interest from and including the Interest Commencement Date of the Certificates at the Interest Rate payable in arrear on each Interest Payment Date.

The amount of interest payable in respect of each Certificate on each Interest Payment Date will amount to the Interest Amount (as defined below) for the Interest Period (as defined below) ending on (but excluding) such Interest Payment Date.

If interest is required to be calculated for a period ending other than on (but excluding) an Interest Payment Date, it will be calculated on the basis of the number of days from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the issue date of the Certificates) to but excluding the relevant payment date, and the relevant interest rate day count fraction as specified in the applicable Final Terms (the “Interest Rate Day Count Fraction”).

Such Interest Rate and/or Interest Amount may be a fixed nominal (“Fixed Interest Certificates”) or floating (“Floating Rate Certificates”) interest rate or it may be determined by reference to (“Interest Indexed Certificates”), and the application of such Interest Rate and/or the payment of such Interest Amount may be limited or affected by, the performance of an Index, a Share, a Debt Security, a Commodity, an Inflation Index, a Fund Share or any other underlying security or any combination thereof in the manner specified in the applicable Final Terms and, for avoidance of doubt, the provisions in these Terms and Conditions relating to such Index, Share, Debt Security, Commodity, Inflation Index, Fund Share or other underlying security shall apply mutatis mutandis in the manner specified in the applicable Final Terms.

(B) Accrual of Interest

Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms, each Certificate will cease to accrue interest from and including its due date for redemption unless payment of the amount and/or delivery of any Entitlement due on redemption is improperly withheld or refused or unless default is otherwise made in respect of the payment or delivery in which case interest shall continue to accrue from the date such amount or delivery of such Entitlement was due until such amount or delivery of such Entitlement is paid or delivered, as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, no interest on the Certificates shall accrue beyond the Redemption Date (as defined below) in the event that delivery of any Entitlement is postponed due to the occurrence of a Settlement Disruption Event.

If any date referred to in these Conditions that is specified to be subject to adjustment in accordance with a Business Day Convention would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day, then, if the Business Day Convention specified is (i) the Floating Rate Business Day Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event

(a) such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Interest Business Day and (b) each subsequent such date shall be the last Interest Business Day of the month in which such date would have fallen had it not been subject to adjustment, (ii) the Following Business Day Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day which is an Interest Business Day, (iii) the Modified Following Business Day Convention, such date shall be postponed to the next day which is an Interest Business Day unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Interest Business Day or (iv) the Preceding Business Day Convention, such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Interest Business Day.

(D) Interest Rate on Floating Rate Certificates

The Interest Rate in respect of Floating Rate Certificates for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined in the manner specified in the applicable Final Terms and, except as otherwise specified in the relevant Final Terms, the provisions below relating to either ISDA Determination or Screen Rate Determination shall apply, depending upon which is specified hereon.

(1) ISDA Determination for Floating Rate Certificates:

Where ISDA Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the manner in which the Interest Rate is to be determined, the Interest Rate for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Calculation Agent as a rate equal to the relevant ISDA Rate plus or minus (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms) the Margin (if any). For the purposes of this sub-paragraph (x), “ISDA Rate” for an Interest Accrual Period means a rate equal to the Floating Rate that would be determined by the Calculation Agent under a Swap Transaction under the terms of an agreement incorporating the ISDA Definitions (as defined below) and under which:

(i) the Floating Rate Option is as specified in the applicable Final Terms;

(ii) the Designated Maturity is a period specified in the applicable Final Terms; and

(iii) the relevant Reset Date is the first day of that Interest Accrual Period, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms.

For the purposes of this sub-paragraph (x), “Floating Rate”, “Calculation Agent”, “Floating Rate Option”, “Designated Maturity”, “Reset Date” and “Swap Transaction” have the meanings given to those terms in the ISDA Definitions.

(2) Screen Rate Determination for Floating Rate Certificates:

Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable final terms as the manner in which the Interest Rate is to be determined, the Interest Rate for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Calculation Agent at or about the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date in respect of such Interest Accrual Period in accordance with the following:

(i) if the Primary Source for the Floating Rate is a Page, subject as provided below, the Interest Rate shall be:

(a) the Relevant Rate (where such Relevant Rate on such Page is a composite quotation or is customarily supplied by one entity); or

(b) the arithmetic mean of the Relevant Rates of the persons whose Relevant Rates appear on that Page, in each case appearing on such Page at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date;

(ii) if the Page specified in the relevant Final Terms as a Primary Source permanently ceases to quote the Relevant Rate(s) but such quotation(s) is/are available from another page, section or other part of such information service selected by the Calculation Agent (the “Replacement Page”), the Replacement Page shall be substituted as the Primary Source for Interest Rate quotations and if no Replacement Page exists but such quotation(s) is/are available from a page, section or other part of a different information service selected by the Calculation Agent (the “Secondary Replacement Page”), the Secondary Replacement Page shall be substituted as the Primary Source for Interest Rate quotations;

(iii) if the Primary Source for the Floating Rate is Reference Banks or if sub-paragraph (i)(a) applies and no Relevant Rate appears on the Page at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date or if sub-paragraph (i)(b) above applies and fewer than two Relevant Rates appear on the Page at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date, subject as provided below, the Interest Rate shall be the arithmetic mean of the Relevant Rates which each of the Reference Banks is quoting to leading banks in the Relevant Financial Centre at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date, as determined by the Calculation Agent;

(iv) if paragraph (iii) above applies and the Calculation Agent determines that fewer than two Reference Banks are so quoting Relevant Rates then, subject as provided below, the Interest Rate shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates per annum (expressed as a percentage) that the Calculation Agent determines to be the rates (being the nearest equivalent to the Benchmark) in respect of a Representative Amount of the Relevant Currency that at least two out of five leading banks selected by the Calculation Agent in the principal financial centre of the country of the Relevant Currency or, if the Relevant Currency is euro, the Euro-zone, (the “Principal Financial Centre”) are quoting at or about the Relevant Time on the date on which such banks would

customarily quote such rates for a period commencing on the Effective Date for a period equivalent to the Specified Duration (x) to leading banks carrying on business in Europe, or (if the Calculation Agent determines that fewer than two of such banks are so quoting to leading banks in Europe) (y) to leading banks carrying on business in the Principal Financial Centre; except that, if fewer than two of such banks are so quoting to leading banks in the Principal Financial Centre, the Interest Rate shall (unless otherwise specified) be the Interest Rate determined on the previous Interest Determination Date (after readjustment for any difference between any Margin, Rate Multiplier or Maximum or Minimum Interest Rate applicable to the preceding Interest Accrual Period and to the relevant Interest Accrual Period).

(3) Margin, Maximum/Minimum Interest Rates, Rate Multipliers and Rounding:

If any Margin or Rate Multiplier is specified (either (x) generally, or (y) in relation to one or more Interest Accrual Periods), an adjustment shall be made to all Interest Rates, in the case of (x), or the Interest Rates for the specified Interest Accrual Periods, in the case of (y), calculated in accordance with

(iii) below by adding (if a positive number) or subtracting the absolute value (if a negative number) of such Margin or multiplying by such Rate Multiplier, subject always to the next paragraph.

If any Maximum or Minimum Interest Rate is specified hereon, then any Interest Rate, shall be subject to such maximum or minimum, as the case may be.

For the purposes of any calculations required pursuant to these Conditions (unless otherwise specified),

(x) all percentages resulting from such calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point (with halves being rounded up), (y) all figures will be rounded to seven significant figures (with halves being rounded up) and (z) all currency amounts that fall due and payable shall be rounded to the nearest unit of such currency (with halves being rounded up), save in the case of yen, which shall be rounded down to the nearest yen. For these purposes “unit” means the lowest amount of such currency which is available as legal tender in the country or countries of such currency and with respect to the euro, means 0.01 euro.

(E) Calculations

The amount of interest payable in respect of any Certificate for any period shall be calculated by multiplying the product of the Interest Rate and the Notional Calculation Amount in respect of such Certificate as of the last day of such period (or in the case of Partly Paid Certificates, the amount paid up) by the Day Count Fraction, unless an Interest Amount (or a formula for its calculation) is specified in respect of such period, in which case the amount of interest payable in respect of such Certificate for such period shall equal such Interest Amount (or be calculated in accordance with such formula). Where any Interest Period comprises two or more Interest Accrual Periods, the amount of interest payable in respect of such Interest Period shall be the sum of the amounts of interest payable in respect of each of those Interest Accrual Periods.

(F) Determination and Publication of Interest Rates and Interest Amounts

As soon as practicable after the Relevant Time on each Interest Determination Date or such other time on such date as the Calculation Agent may be required to obtain any quote or make any determination or calculation, it shall determine the Interest Rate and calculate the relevant Interest Amount in respect of each Certificate for the relevant Interest Accrual Period, obtain such quote or make such determination or calculation, as the case may be, and cause the Interest Rate and the Interest Amount for each Interest Period and the relevant Interest Payment Date to be notified to the Agent and the Issuer, the Certificateholders, and, if the Certificates are listed on a stock exchange and the rules of such exchange so require, such exchange as soon as possible after their determination but in no event later than (i) the commencement of the relevant Interest Period, if determined prior to such time, in the case of notification to such stock exchange of an

Interest Rate and Interest Amount, or (ii) in all other cases, the fourth Business Day after such determination. Where any Interest Payment Date or Interest Period Date is subject to adjustment pursuant to Condition 5(B), the Interest Amounts and the Interest Payment Date so published may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period. The determination of each Interest Rate and Interest Amount, the obtaining of each quote and the making of each determination or calculation by the Calculation Agent shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all parties.

(G) Interest on Partly Paid Certificates

In the case of Partly Paid Certificates interest will be paid on such Certificates as aforesaid on the amount paid up in respect of such Certificates and otherwise as specified in the applicable Final Terms.

In the case of a partial redemption, the rights of Holders of Certificates represented by a Global Certificate will, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Final Terms, be governed by the standard procedures of Euroclear, Clearstream Luxembourg, DTC or any relevant Clearing System (as the case may be). With respect to Certificates represented by Private Placement Definitive Certificates, the Definitive Certificate Agent will select the Certificates to be redeemed individually by lot, not more than 45 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, and give notice to Holders, in accordance with Condition 11, of the serial numbers of the Certificates to be redeemed not less than 15 days prior to the date fixed for redemption.

If Holder Put Option is specified in the applicable Final Terms, upon the Holder of any Certificate giving to the Issuer not less than 15 nor more than 30 days’ notice the Issuer will, upon the expiry of such notice, redeem, subject to, and in accordance with, the terms specified in the applicable Final Terms, in whole (but not in part), such Certificate on the Optional Redemption Date and at the Optional Redemption Amount together, if appropriate, with interest accrued to (but excluding) the Optional Redemption Date (each date and amount as defined in the applicable Final Terms).

Any Put Notice given by a Holder of any Certificate pursuant to this Condition shall be irrevocable.

Upon receipt of such confirmation, the Principal Certificate 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 Delivery Date debit the securities account of the relevant Holder with the relevant Certificates.

Upon receipt of such confirmation, the Definitive Certificate Agent will inform BNPP thereof. The Definitive Certificate Agent will, on or before the Delivery Date, update the Private Placement Register.

(3) Determinations and Delivery

Any determination as to whether an Asset Transfer Notice is duly completed and in proper form shall be made by (i) in the case of Global Certificates (other than Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC), the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder, (ii) in the case of Certificates represented by a Rule 144A Global Certificate held by a Custodian on behalf of DTC, the New York Certificate Agent, or (iii) in the case of Private Placement Definitive Certificates, the Definitive Certificate Agent, in each case, in consultation with the Principal Certificate Agent, and shall be conclusive and binding on the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Certificate Agents and the relevant Holder. Subject as set out below, any Asset Transfer Notice so determined to be incomplete or not in proper form, or which is not copied to the Principal Certificate Agent immediately after being delivered or sent to the relevant Clearing System or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder, the New York Certificate Agent or the Definitive Certificate Agent, as provided in paragraph (1) above, shall be null and void.

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

The relevant Clearing System, the New York Certificate Agent or the Definitive Certificate Agent, as the case may be, or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder shall use its best efforts promptly to notify the Holder submitting an Asset Transfer Notice if, in consultation with the Principal

Certificate Agent, it has determined that such Asset Transfer 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 Certificate Agents 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.

No Asset Transfer Notice may be withdrawn after receipt thereof by the relevant Clearing System, the relevant Account Holder or the relevant Certificate Agent, as the case may be, as provided above. After delivery of an Asset Transfer Notice, the relevant Holder may not transfer the Certificates which are the subject of such notice.

The Entitlement will be delivered at the risk of the relevant Holder, in the manner provided below on the Redemption Date (such date, subject to adjustment in accordance with this Condition, the “Delivery Date”), provided that the Asset Transfer Notice is duly delivered to the relevant Clearing System or the relevant Certificate Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Account Holder with a copy to the Principal Certificate Agent, as provided above on or prior to the Cut-Off Date.

If a Holder fails to give an Asset Transfer Notice as provided herein with a copy to the Principal Certificate Agent, on or prior to the Cut-Off Date, then the Entitlement will be delivered as soon as practicable after the Redemption Date (in which case, such date of delivery shall be the Delivery Date) at the risk of such Holder in the manner provided below. For the avoidance of doubt, in such circumstances such Holder shall not be entitled to any payment, whether of interest or otherwise, as a result of such Delivery Date falling after the Redemption Date and no liability in respect thereof shall attach to the Issuer or the Guarantor, if any.

The Issuer shall at the risk of the relevant Holder, deliver or procure the delivery of the Entitlement for each Certificate, pursuant to the details specified in the Asset Transfer Notice or in such commercially reasonable manner as the Calculation Agent shall in its sole discretion determine and notify to the person designated by the Holder in the relevant Asset Transfer Notice. All Expenses arising from the delivery of the Entitlement in respect of such Certificates shall be for the account of the relevant Holder and no delivery of the Entitlement shall be made until all Expenses have been paid to the satisfaction of the Issuer by the relevant Holder.

(4) General

Certificates held by the same Holder will be aggregated for the purpose of determining the aggregate Entitlements in respect of such Certificates, 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 the Delivery Date of a Share Certificate 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 Delivery 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 Asset Transfer Notice as referred to in Condition 7(B)(1).

For such period of time after delivery of the Entitlement as the Issuer or any person acting on behalf of the Issuer shall continue to be the legal owner of the securities comprising the Entitlement (the “Intervening Period”), none of the Issuer, the Guarantor, if any, the Calculation Agent nor any other person shall at any time (i) be under any obligation to deliver or procure delivery to any Holder any

letter, certificate, notice, circular or any other document or, except as provided herein, payment whatsoever received by that person in respect of such securities or obligations, (ii) be under any obligation to exercise or procure exercise of any or all rights attaching to such securities or obligations or (iii) be under any liability to a Holder in respect of any loss or damage which such Holder may sustain or suffer as a result, whether directly or indirectly, of that person being registered during such Intervening Period as legal owner of such securities or obligations.

(5) Settlement Disruption

If, 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 the Delivery Date, then the Delivery Date 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 Certificate by delivering the Entitlement using such other commercially reasonable manner as it may select and in such event the Delivery 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 Delivery Date for the Relevant Assets not affected by the Settlement Disruption Event will be the originally designated Delivery Date. 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. 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 Certificate 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 Certificate 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.

For the purposes hereof:

“Disruption Cash Settlement Price”, in respect of any relevant Certificate, shall be the fair market value of such Certificate (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 provided in the applicable Final Terms), all as determined by the Issuer in its sole and absolute discretion;

“Settlement Business Day”, in respect of each Certificate, has the meaning specified in the applicable Final Terms relating to such Certificate; 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.

(6) 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.

(i) If the applicable Final Terms indicate that the Issuer has an option to vary settlement in respect of the Certificates (which, unless otherwise specified, will not apply to U.S. Certificates), the Issuer may at its sole and unfettered discretion in respect of each such Certificate, 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 Redemption 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, the Issuer shall, in respect of each Certificate, in lieu of delivering or procuring the delivery of the Entitlement to the relevant Holders, make payment of the Cash Settlement Amount on the Redemption Date to the relevant Holders.

(D) Issuer’s Option to Substitute Assets or to pay the Alternate Cash Amount

Following a valid redemption of Certificates in accordance with these Conditions, the Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion in respect of such Certificates, if the Calculation Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the Relevant Asset or Relevant Assets, as the case may be, comprises 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.

(E) Rights of Holders and Calculations

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

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

(F) Prescription

Claims against the Issuer or the Guarantor, if any, for payment of principal or interest in respect of the Certificates shall become void unless made within 60 months from the Redemption Date and no claims shall be made after such date.

8. Illegality and Force Majeure

(A) Illegality

If the Issuer determines that the performance of its obligations under the Certificates has become illegal in whole or in part for any reason, the Issuer may, on giving notice to Holders in accordance with Condition 11, redeem all but not some only of the Certificates.

If the Issuer redeems the Certificates early 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. Certificates pay to each Holder in respect of each Certificate held by such Holder an amount equal to the fair market value of a Certificate, notwithstanding such illegality less the cost to the Issuer and/or its Affiliates of unwinding any underlying related hedging arrangements (unless otherwise provided in the relevant Final Terms) 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.
