Interest rates on step-up Notes increase over the years, interest on stepdown<br />

Notes decrease over the years. The dates on which interest<br />

increases or decreases, respectively, and the interest rates are<br />

predetermined. There are also combinations of step-up and step-down<br />

Notes, whereby the predetermined interest rate may increase or decrease<br />

from one year to another.<br />

Zero coupon Notes will be offered and sold at a discount to their principal<br />

amount or on an accumulated interest basis, in each case without<br />

periodic payments of interest.<br />

Dual currency Notes are Notes where payment of principal and/or<br />

payment of interest can be made in different currencies. Payments<br />

(whether in respect of principal or interest and whether at maturity or<br />

otherwise) in respect of dual currency Notes will be made in such<br />

currencies, and based on such rates of exchange, as the Issuer and the<br />

relevant Dealer may agree, as specified in the applicable Final Terms.<br />

Instalment Notes are Notes, where payment of principal is made in<br />

instalments. Instalment will be made as the Issuer and the relevant<br />

Dealer(s) may agree (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms).<br />

Inflation-related Notes bear interest at a minimum interest rate as<br />

specified in the Final Terms plus a rate determined by reference to<br />

changes in the unrevised and harmonised consumer price index (without<br />

tobacco) for the Euro-Zone (HVPI) calculated on a monthly basis by the<br />

Statistical Office of the European Community (EUROSTAT).<br />

Range Accrual Notes bear interest at a floating rate of interest linked to a<br />

formula as specified in the Final Terms. On the Interest Determination<br />

Date, the Calculation Agent determines for the relevant current interest<br />

period in arrear the number of calendar days within an Observation<br />

Period, on which the determined reference rate fell within a pre-defined<br />

range. The number of calendar days on which the determined reference<br />

rate fell within that range will positively affect the rate of interest for the<br />

relevant Interest Period.<br />

Steepener Notes Steepener Notes are Notes with a variable interest rate which amounts to<br />

the difference or a multiple of the difference between two reference rates.<br />

Index Linked Notes<br />

Index linked Notes may be issued as index linked interest Notes or index<br />

linked redemption Notes or a combination of both.<br />

Index Linked Interest Notes<br />

Payments of interest in respect of index linked interest Notes will be made<br />

by reference to a single index or other factors (including changes in the<br />

price of securities and commodities or movements in exchange rates)<br />

and/or such formula as may be specified by the Issuer and the relevant<br />

Dealer (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms).<br />

Index Linked Redemption Notes<br />

Payments of principal in respect of index linked redemption Notes will be<br />

calculated by reference to a single index or other factors (including<br />

changes in the price of securities and commodities or movements in<br />

exchange rates) and/or such formula as may be specified by the Issuer<br />

and the relevant Dealer(s) (as indicated in the applicable Final Terms).<br />

Each nominal amount of Notes equal to the lowest specified<br />

denomination specified in the applicable Final Terms will be redeemed by<br />

payment of the redemption amount specified in or as determined pursuant<br />

to provisions in the applicable Final Terms.
