90 (B) Definitions specific to Single Exchange Index Linked Notes "Averaging Dates" means each date specified as such in the applicable Final Terms or, if any of such Averaging Dates is not a relevant Scheduled Trading Day, the next following relevant Valid Date, subject to the provisions of "Averaging Date Disruption" below. "Averaging Date Disruption" means that, if any Averaging Date is a Disrupted Day, then the provisions relating to "Consequences of Disrupted Days" below will apply for purposes of determining the relevant level, price or amount on that Averaging Date as if such Averaging Date were a Valuation Date that was a Disrupted Day irrespective of whether, pursuant to such determination, that deferred Averaging Date would fall on a date that already is or is deemed to be an Averaging Date for the Notes. "Barrier Period" means, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Final Terms, the period from and including the Strike Date to and including the Valuation Time on the Valuation Date. "Barrier Level" means the level of the Index specified as such or otherwise determined in the relevant Final Terms, subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the provisions set forth in Condition 10(g) and to "Consequences of Disrupted Days" below. "Cash Settlement" means, in relation to a Series of Notes, that the relevant Noteholder is entitled to receive from the Issuer on the Cash Settlement Payment Date an amount calculated in accordance with the relevant Final Terms in the Specified Currency. "Cash Settlement Payment Date" means in relation to a Series of Notes, the date specified as such or otherwise determined as provided in the relevant Final Terms. "Consequences of Disrupted Days" means if any Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day, then in the case of a Note which: (i) (ii) relates to a single Index, the Valuation Date shall be the first succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day, unless each of the eight Scheduled Trading Days immediately following the Scheduled Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day. In that case, (i) that eighth Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date, notwithstanding the fact that such day is a Disrupted Day, and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall determine the level of the Index as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day of each security comprised in the Index (or, if an event giving rise to a Disrupted Day has occurred in respect of the relevant security on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day); or relates to a Basket of Indices, the Valuation Date for each Index not affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the Scheduled Valuation Date, and the Valuation Date for each Index affected by the occurrence of a Disrupted Day shall be the first succeeding Scheduled Trading Day that is not a Disrupted Day relating to that Index, unless each of the eight Scheduled Trading Days immediately following the Scheduled Valuation Date is a Disrupted Day relating to that Index. In that case, (i) that eighth Scheduled Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Valuation Date for the relevant Index, notwithstanding the fact that such day is a
91 Disrupted Day, and (ii) the Calculation Agent shall determine the level of that Index as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating that Index last in effect prior to the occurrence of the first Disrupted Day using the Exchange traded or quoted price as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day of each security comprised in that Index (or, if an event giving rise to a Disrupted Day has occurred in respect of the relevant security on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day, its good faith estimate of the value for the relevant security as of the Valuation Time on that eighth Scheduled Trading Day). "Disrupted Day" means any Scheduled Trading Day on which a relevant Exchange or any Related Exchange fails to open for trading during its regular trading session or on which a Market Disruption Event has occurred. "Early Closure" means the closure on any Exchange Business Day of the relevant Exchange (or in the case of an Index Transaction or Index Linked Note, any relevant Exchange(s) relating to securities that comprise 20 percent or more of the level of the relevant Index) or any Related Exchange(s) prior to its Scheduled Closing Time unless such earlier closing time is announced by such Exchange(s) or Related Exchange(s) at least one hour prior to the earlier of (i) the actual closing time for the regular trading session on such Exchange(s) or Related Exchange(s) on such Exchange Business Day and (ii) the submission deadline for orders to be entered into the Exchange or Related Exchange system for execution at the Valuation Time on such Exchange Business Day. "Exchange" means in respect of an Index the relevant exchange or quotation system specified for such Index in the relevant Final Terms, any successor to such exchange or quotation system or any substitute exchange or quotation system to which trading in the shares underlying such Index has temporarily relocated (provided that the Calculation Agent has determined that there is comparable liquidity relative to the shares underlying such Index on such temporary substitute exchange or quotation system as on the original Exchange). "Exchange Business Day" means any Scheduled Trading Day on which the relevant Exchange and, if any, the relevant Related Exchange are open for trading during their respective regular trading sessions, notwithstanding any such Exchange or, if any, Related Exchange closing prior to its Scheduled Closing Time. "Exchange Disruption" means any event (other than an Early Closure) that disrupts or impairs (as determined by the Calculation Agent) the ability of market participants in general (i) to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, securities that comprise 20 percent or more of the level of the relevant Index, or (ii) to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, futures or options contracts relating to the relevant Index on any relevant Related Exchange. "Final Index Level" means either (i) in respect of the Valuation Date and an Index, the level of the Index as determined by the Calculation Agent as of the Valuation Time on the relevant Exchange on such Valuation Date; or (ii) in respect of the Averaging Dates and an Index, the arithmetic average as determined by the Calculation Agent (rounded to the nearest unit of the relevant currency in which the Index is valued (with halves being rounded up)) of the Reference Levels on each Averaging Date. "Index" means the index, as adjusted pursuant to Condition 10, to which the relevant Note relates, as specified in the relevant Final Terms, and "Indices" and "Basket" shall be construed accordingly.
