The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Notes will control.

 

The following summaries of certain provisions of the Indenture and the Notes do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all of the provisions of the Indenture and the Notes, including the definitions therein of certain terms. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Indenture.

 

The Notes will qualify as “obligaciones negociables simples no convertibles” under the Negotiable Obligations Law and will be entitled to the benefits set forth therein and subject to the procedural requirements thereof. The Notes will rank pari passu in right of payment with all other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of IRSA PC (other than obligations preferred by statute or by operation of law).

 

Unless previously redeemed, the Notes will mature on the date (the “Stated Maturity”) no less than thirty (30) days from their date of issue as specified on the face hereof.

 

The Notes shall be denominated in the currency (a “Specified Currency”) as specified on the face hereof. Payments on the Notes will be made in the Specified Currency.

 

The Notes shall bear interest at a fixed rate (a “Fixed Rate Note”). See “Interest Rate” below.

 

The Notes will not be subject to any sinking fund and will not be redeemable prior to their Stated Maturity, except as provided in the Indenture.

 

IRSA PC may from time to time, without the consent of Holders of Notes outstanding, create and issue additional Notes of such Series (“Additional Notes”); provided such Additional Notes have the same terms and conditions as the Notes of that Series (except for the date of issue, the issue price, the applicable legends, the date from which interest accrues and, if applicable, the first payment of interest); and provided further that if the Additional Notes are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the previously outstanding Notes of the relevant Series, such Additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. The Additional Notes shall be consolidated with and form a single Series with the previously outstanding Series of Notes.

The first payment of interest will be made on the Interest Payment Date next following the Interest Commencement Date.

Interest (and principal, if any, payable other than at Stated Maturity or upon acceleration or redemption) shall be payable in immediately available funds to the Person in whose name a Security is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding each Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Securities upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to such Regular Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that interest payable at Stated Maturity or upon acceleration or redemption shall be payable to the Person to whom principal will be payable; and provided further, that if and to the extent IRSA PC defaults in the payment of the interest, including any Additional Amounts, due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest, including any Additional Amounts, shall be paid to the Person in whose names such Notes are registered at the end of a subsequent record date established by IRSA PC by notice given by or on behalf of IRSA PC to the Holders of the Notes not less than fifteen (15) days preceding such special record date, such record date to be not less than fifteen (15) days preceding the date of payment in respect of such defaulted interest. The first payment of interest on any Note originally issued between a Regular Record Date and an Interest Payment Date shall be made on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Regular Record Date to the registered owner at the close of business on such next succeeding Regular Record Date. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date, will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on September 22 or March 22 (whether or not a Business Day, as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Date”).

Payments of the principal of and any premium, interest, Additional Amounts and other amounts on or in respect of the Notes to be made other than at Stated Maturity or upon redemption shall be made by check mailed on or before the due date for such payments to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it appears in the Register; provided that (a) the Depositary, as Holder of Global Securities, shall be entitled to receive payments of interest by wire transfer of immediately available funds and (b) a Holder of at least US$1,000,000 in aggregate principal or face amount of Securities shall be entitled to receive payments of interest by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by such Holder at a bank located in the United States as may have been appropriately designated by such Holder to the Trustee in writing no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the date such payment is due. Unless such designation is revoked, any such designation made by such Holder with respect to such Notes shall remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Notes payable to such Holder.

 

Payments of interest on any Fixed Rate Note with respect to any Interest Payment Date will include interest accrued to but excluding such Interest Payment Date.

 

Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

 

If the Stated Maturity for any Fixed Rate Note or the Interest Payment Date for any Fixed Rate Note falls on a day which is not a Business Day, payment of principal (and premium, if any) and interest with respect to such Note will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the due date and no interest on such payment will accrue from and after such due date.
