In accordance with the Act on Debt Securities of 2009<br />
(Schuldverschreibungsgesetz – "SchVG") the Notes contain provisions<br />
pursuant to which Holders may agree by resolution to amend the Terms<br />
and Conditions (with the consent of the Issuer) and to decide upon<br />
certain other matters regarding the Notes. Resolutions of Holders<br />
properly adopted, either in a meeting of Holders or by vote taken without<br />
a meeting in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, are binding<br />
upon all Holders. Resolutions providing for material amendments to the<br />
Terms and Conditions require a majority of not less than 75%. of the<br />
votes cast. Resolutions regarding other amendments are passed by a<br />
simple majority of the votes cast, subject to a higher majority provided<br />
for in the Terms and Conditions.<br />
In accordance with the SchVG the Notes provide that the Holders may<br />
by majority resolution appoint a representative for all Holders (the<br />
"Holders' Representative"). The responsibilities and functions<br />
assigned to the Holders' Representative appointed by a resolution are<br />
determined by the SchVG and by majority resolutions of the Holders.<br />
The Holders' Representative may also be designated in the Terms and<br />
Conditions of the Notes. In such case, the duties, rights and functions of<br />
the Holders' Representative are determined by the relevant provisions<br />
of the Terms and Conditions.
