Meetings<br />

The Agency Agreement contains provisions for convening meetings of Noteholders to consider matters<br />

affecting their interests, including the sanctioning by Extraordinary Resolution of a modification of any of these<br />

Conditions or any provisions of the Agency Agreement. Such a meeting may and, if required in writing by<br />

Noteholders holding not less than 10 per cent. in nominal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding,<br />

shall be convened by the Issuer. At a meeting of the holders of the Notes for the purpose of, amongst others,<br />

approving a modification or amendment to, or obtaining a waiver of, any covenant or condition set forth in the<br />

Notes or the Agency Agreement, persons entitled to vote a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes<br />

at the time outstanding shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum at any such meeting that is not a<br />

meeting convened upon the requisition of Noteholders, within 30 minutes of the time appointed for such<br />

meeting, the meeting may be adjourned for a period of not less than 14 days; in the absence of a quorum any<br />

meeting that is convened on the requisition of Noteholders shall be dissolved; the persons entitled to vote a<br />

majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding shall constitute a quorum for the<br />

taking of any action set forth in the notice of the original meeting. At a meeting or an adjourned meeting duly<br />

convened and at which a quorum is present as aforesaid, any Extraordinary Resolution to, amongst others,<br />

modify or amend any of these Conditions or any provisions of the Agency Agreement (other than those items<br />

specified in Condition 12(a)(i) through (vii)), or to waive compliance with, any of these Conditions shall be<br />

effectively passed if passed by a majority consisting of at least 75% of the votes cast.<br />

These Conditions may be amended, modified, or varied in relation to any Series of Notes by the terms of the<br />

applicable Final Terms or Prospectus in relation to such Series.<br />
