Notwithstanding Section 2.15.3 of the Principal Indenture, if the Book-Entry System is closed for business for a continuous period of 14 calendar days (other than by reason of legal holidays) or announces an intention permanently to cease business:
 
 
(i)

after such replacement of the Book-Entry Securities with Definitive Securities, all payments in respect of Definitive Securities shall be made to the Holders thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Definitive Securities and the provisions of the Indenture and in all other respects such holders shall be the Holders thereof for all purposes hereunder.

(e)
It is hereby acknowledged that in making the determination as to the percentage interest of a Participant in a Book-Entry Security, the Trustee and each Agent, if applicable, shall be entitled to rely solely upon the records therefor maintained by either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and confirmed in writing to the Trustee by either Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be.

On an exchange in whole of a Book-Entry Security, such Book-Entry Security shall be surrendered to the Registrar.
 
 
(i)
Until the exchange of the whole of a Book-Entry Security as aforesaid, the Holder shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as if it were the Holder of Definitive Securities. Subject as provided in the Indenture, each Person who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as entitled to a particular principal amount of the Notes represented by a Book-Entry Security (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the principal amount of such Notes standing to the account of any Person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be deemed to be the Holder of such principal amount of such Notes for all purposes other than with respect to payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes for which purpose the Holder of a Book-Entry Security shall be deemed to be the Holder of such principal amount of the Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of a Book-Entry Security and the Indenture.
 
 
(j)
In considering the interests of the Holders while a Book-Entry Security is registered in the name of a nominee for the common depositary of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, the Trustee may, to the extent it considers it appropriate to do so in the circumstances but without being obliged to do so, (a) have regard to any information provided to it by Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the identity (either individually or by category) of its Participants with entitlements to the relevant Notes and (b) consider such interests as if such Participants were the Holders of the Notes.
 
 
(k)

Transfers of interests in the Notes will be effected through the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (or any alternative clearing system) and their respective direct and indirect participants. No transfer of a Note represented by a Book-Entry Security may be required to be effected during the period from and including the relevant Record Date

In respect of the foregoing, for avoidance of doubt, reasonable measures do not include a change in the terms of the Notes or a substitution of the debtor. No redemption shall be made pursuant to this paragraph unless:
 
 
(a)
the Corporation shall have received an opinion of counsel that a Tax Event has occured;
 
 
(b)
the Corporation shall have delivered to the Trustee an officer’s certificate stating that the Corporation is entitled to redeem such Notes pursuant to the terms of such Notes; and

Additional Amounts.
 
 
(a)
All payments made by or on behalf of the Corporation under or with respect to the Notes will be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Government of Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, or by any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax (“Relevant Taxes”), except to the extent required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Corporation is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of such Relevant Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Notes, the Corporation will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder (including Additional Amounts) after such withholding or deduction will be equal to the amount such Holder would have received if such Relevant Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of any Notes for or on account of:
 
 
 

 
18

 


 
(i)
any Relevant Tax imposed by reason that such Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes or other Person entitled to payment under the Notes does not deal at arm’s length within the meaning of the Tax Act with the Corporation or is, or does not deal at arm’s length with any Person who is, a “specified shareholder” of the Corporation (as defined in subsection 18(5) of the Tax Act);
 
 
(ii)
any Relevant Tax that would not have been imposed if the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes complied with the Corporation’s request to provide information concerning his, her or its nationality, residence or identity or to make a declaration, claim or filing or satisfy any requirement for information or reporting that is required to establish the eligibility of the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes to receive the relevant payment without (or at a reduced rate of) withholding or deduction for or account of any such Relevant Tax;
 
 
(iii)
any Relevant Tax that would not have been imposed but for the fact that the Holder, or the beneficial owner, of the Notes (or any fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) was a resident, domiciliary or national of, or engaged in business or maintained a permanent establishment or was physically present in, Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, or otherwise had some connection with Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, other than merely holding such Notes, or receiving payments under such Notes;
 
 
(iv)
any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property tax or any similar tax with respect to the Notes;
 
 
(v)
any Relevant Tax that is levied or collected otherwise than by withholding from payments on or in respect of the Notes;
 
 
(vi)
any withholding or deduction imposed pursuant to or in connection with (i) Sections 1471 to 1474 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or any successor version thereof, or any similar legislation imposed by any other governmental authority, (ii) any agreements (including intergovernmental agreements) with respect thereto, or (iii) any treaty, law, regulation, or official interpretation enacted by Canada or any other governmental authority implementing any of the foregoing; or
 
 
(vii)
any combination of the foregoing.
 
In addition, the Corporation will not pay Additional Amounts to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of the payment subject to the Relevant Tax, to the extent such payment would, under the laws of Canada or any province, territory or political subdivision thereof, be treated as being derived or received for tax purposes by a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to Additional Amounts had it been the Holder of the Notes.
 
 
(b)
If the Corporation is required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof to withhold or deduct any Relevant Taxes from any payment under or with respect to the
 
 
 


 
19

 

 
Notes, the Corporation will (i) make such withholding or deduction and (ii) remit the full amount so deducted or withheld to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law. The Corporation will furnish to the Holders, within 30 days after the date the payment of any Relevant Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts or other documents evidencing such payment by the Corporation.
 
 
(c)
If the Corporation is required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof to withhold or deduct any Relevant Taxes from any payment under or with respect to the Notes for which the Corporation would then have been required to pay Additional Amounts under paragraph (a) of this Section 4.5 and fails to so withhold or deduct, the Corporation will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder for the amount of (i) such Relevant Taxes levied or imposed on and paid by such Holder, (ii) any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising from such Relevant Taxes, and (iii) any Relevant Taxes imposed with respect to any payment under clauses (i) or (ii) of this paragraph (c) of this Section 4.5.
 
 
(d)
At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Notes is due and payable, if the Corporation is aware that it will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee an officer’s certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable, the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date.
 
 
(e)
Wherever in the Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Note, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Section 4.5 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
 
 
(f)
If the Corporation shall have completed any transaction permitted pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Principal Indenture whereby the successor Person is organized under the laws of a country other than Canada or any of its political subdivisions, all references in this Section 4.5 to Canada and its political subdivisions shall be deemed to be references to both Canada and the country in which such successor Person is organized or resident (or deemed resident for tax purposes) and their respective political subdivisions.

For purposes of this Section 6.3, “applicable law” shall be deemed to include (i) any rule or practice of any Authority by which any party is bound or with which it is customary to comply; (ii) any agreement between any Authorities; and (iii) any agreement between any Authority and any party that is customarily entered into by institutions of a similar nature.
 
 
 
 

 
 
21

 


 
(b)
The Corporation shall notify the Trustee in the event that it determines that any payment to be made by the Trustee or the Agents is a payment which could be subject to FATCA Withholding if such payment were made to a recipient that is generally unable to receive payments free from FATCA Withholding, and the extent to which the relevant payment is so treated, provided, however, that the Corporation’s obligation under this Section 6.3 shall apply only to the extent that such payments are so treated by virtue of characteristics of the Corporation, the Notes, or both.
 
 
(c)
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture, each Agent appointed under this Seventh Supplemental Indenture shall be entitled to make a deduction or withholding from any payment which it makes under the Notes for or on account of any Tax, if and only to the extent so required by applicable law, in which event the Agent shall make such payment after such deduction or withholding has been made and shall account to the relevant Authority within the time allowed for the amount so deducted or withheld or, at its option, shall reasonably promptly after making such payment return to the Corporation the amount so deducted or withheld, in which case, the Corporation shall so account to the relevant Authority for such amount. For the avoidance of doubt, FATCA Withholding is a deduction or withholding which is deemed to be required by applicable law for the purposes of this Section 6.3.
 
 
(d)
In the event that the Corporation determines in its sole discretion that withholding for or on account of any Tax will be required by applicable law in connection with any payment due to the Trustee or any Agent, then the Corporation will be entitled to redirect or reorganize any such payment in any way that it sees fit in order that the payment may be made without such deductions or withholding provided that, any such redirected or reorganized payment is made through a recognized institution of international standing and otherwise made in accordance with the Indenture. The Corporation will promptly notify the Trustee and each Agent appointed under this Seventh Supplemental Indenture of any such redirection or reorganization.
 
6.4
Counterparts and Formal Date.
 
This Seventh Supplemental Indenture may be executed in several counterparts and delivered by facsimile or other electronic transmission, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts together shall be deemed to bear the same date as the Issue Date.
 
6.5
Bail-in Legislation
 
Notwithstanding any other term of this Seventh Supplemental Indenture or any other agreements, arrangements, or understanding between the parties hereto, each counterparty to a BRRD Party under this Seventh Supplemental Indenture acknowledges, accepts, and agrees to be bound by:
 
 
(a)
the effect of the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority in relation to any BRRD Liability of any BRRD Party to it under this Seventh Supplemental Indenture, that (without limitation) may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof:
 
 
(i)

22

 


 
(ii)
the conversion of all, or a portion, of the BRRD Liability into shares, other securities or other obligations of the relevant BRRD Party or another person (and the issue to or conferral on it of such shares, securities or obligations);
 
 
(iii)
the cancellation of the BRRD Liability;
 
 
(iv)
the amendment or alteration of the amounts due in relation to  the BRRD Liability, including any interest, if applicable, thereon, the maturity or the dates on which any payments are due, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; and
 
 
(b)
the variation of the terms of this Seventh Supplemental Indenture, as deemed necessary by the Relevant Resolution Authority, to give effect to the exercise of Bail-in Powers by the Relevant Resolution Authority.

This Note is one of the Debentures of the Corporation, issued or issuable in one series under the provisions of the Trust Indenture made as of May 19, 2005 as supplemented, including by the seventh supplemental indenture made as of June 23, 2016 (the “Seventh Supplemental Indenture” and, together with any further instruments or agreements in each case supplemental or ancillary thereto, the “Indenture”) made between the Corporation and BNY Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”). Reference is hereby expressly made to the Indenture for particulars of the rights of the Holders of the Notes and of the Corporation and of the Trustee in respect thereof and the terms and conditions upon which the Notes are issued or may be issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Indenture were herein set forth, to all of which provisions the Holder of this Note by acceptance hereof assents. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the Indenture. The US$1,000,000,000 4.70% Senior Notes due June 23, 2046 (the “Notes”), of which this is one, are issuable by the Corporation from time to time in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture. The aggregate principal amount of Debentures of other series which may be issued under the Indenture is unlimited, but such Debentures may be issued only upon the terms and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.
 
The Notes are direct obligations of the Corporation but are not secured by any mortgage, pledge, hypothec or other charge.
 
As long as the Notes are Book-Entry Securities and are registered in the name of a nominee for the common depository for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, the principal, premium, if any, and interest from time to time payable in respect thereof shall be made to, or to the order of, the Person whose name is entered in the Note Register maintained by the Registrar at the close of the business on the relevant Record Date, and the receipt of such Holder therefor shall be a valid discharge to the Trustee, any registrar of Notes and the Corporation, who shall be entitled to rely upon Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and the Participants to ensure that funds are advanced to beneficial holders of Notes.
 
For so long as all of the Notes are held as a Book-Entry Security on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, notices to the Holders may be given by delivery of the relevant notice to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg (as the case may be) for communication to the persons shown in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as the beneficial holders of such Notes. Any notice to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg under the provisions of the Seventh Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to have been given on the date of delivery of the notice to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (as the case may be). So long as the Notes are listed on the TPEx and the TPEx listing rules so require, notices regarding the Notes will also be disclosed by the Corporation on the TPEx’s designated website.
 
If the Trustee determines that mail service is or is threatened to be interrupted at the time when the Trustee is required or elects to give any notice to the Noteholders hereunder, the Trustee shall, notwithstanding the provisions hereof, give such notice by means of publication in The China Post and The Wall Street Journal Asia or any other English language daily newspaper or newspapers of general circulation in Asia, once in each of two successive weeks, and any notice so published shall be deemed to have been given on the latest date on which the publication has taken place.
 
The right is reserved to the Corporation to purchase or redeem Notes for cancellation in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.
 
The principal hereof may become or be declared due and payable before the stated maturity date in the events, in the manner, with the effect and at the times provided in the Indenture.
