DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ECNs AND THE AT1 SECURITIES
 
Further details of the AT1 securities to be issued by the Group in the offer is contained in the offering documents for the offer.  The form, terms and conditions of the ECNs are substantially different from those of the AT1 securities.  Holders who are in any doubt as to the terms of their ECNs and the differences to the terms of the AT1 securities are recommended to inform themselves about the terms of their ECNs and seek financial and legal advice from their professional advisers as they deem appropriate.  The AT1 securities will rank senior to ordinary shares in the Group.  It is the current intention of the Board of Directors of the Group (the Board) that, whenever exercising its discretion to declare dividends on the ordinary shares, or its discretion to cancel interest on the AT1 securities, it will take into account the relative ranking of these instruments in the Group’s capital structure, although the Board may at any time depart from this policy at its sole discretion.
