Optional Redemption: | The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at its option at any time prior to October 31, 2032 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes) at the make-whole redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and a make-whole amount based on a discount rate equal to the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date, discounted on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)).
In addition, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at its option at any time on or after October 31, 2032 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
The Issuer may also redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes in the event of certain tax changes affecting the Notes.
“Comparable Government Bond Rate” means, the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which the gross redemption yield on the Notes, if they were to be purchased at such price on the third Business Day prior to the date fixed for redemption, would be equal to the gross redemption yield on such Business Day of the Comparable Government Bond on the basis of the middle market price of the Comparable Government Bond prevailing at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Business Day as determined by the Issuer.
“Comparable Government Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable Government Bond Rate calculation selected by the Issuer, a German Bundesanleihe security whose maturity is closest to the maturity of the Notes (as if the Notes had matured on October 31, 2032), or if the Issuer considers that such similar bond is not in issue, such other German Bundesanleihe security as the Issuer may, with the advice of three brokers of, and/or market makers in, German Bundesanleihe securities selected by the Issuer, determine to be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate.

* Under the E.U. Central Securities Depositaries Regulation, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two London business days unless the parties to such trade expressly agreed otherwise. Also, under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in one New York business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the delivery of the Notes hereunder will generally be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially settle on the third business day following the Trade Date (“T+3”), to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors.
