(2)Subject to the procedures set out in the Procedures Memorandum, for the purposes of clause 3, each of the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar is entitled to treat a telephone, telex or facsimile communication from a person purporting to be (and who the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar, as the case may be, believes in good faith to be) the authorised representative of the Issuer named in the list referred to in, or notified pursuant to, clause 22(7) below, or any other list duly provided for such purpose by the Issuer to the Principal Paying Agent, as sufficient instructions and authority of the Issuer for the Principal Paying Agent or the Registrar to act in accordance with clause 3 save where the Principal Paying Agent or the

Promptly upon such person ceasing to be authorised, the Issuer shall provide the Principal Paying Agent with replacement master Temporary Bearer Global Notes and Permanent Bearer Global Notes and shall provide the Registrar with replacement master Registered Global Notes and the Principal Paying Agent and the Registrar, as the case may be, shall, upon receipt of such replacements, cancel and destroy the master Notes held by them which are signed by such person and shall provide the Issuer with a certificate of destruction in respect thereof, specifying the master Notes so cancelled and destroyed.

(5)If the Principal Paying Agent pays an amount (the “Advance”) to the Issuer on the basis that a payment (the “Payment”) has been or will be received from a Dealer and if the Payment is not received by the Principal Paying Agent on the date the Principal Paying Agent pays the Issuer, the Issuer shall repay to the Principal Paying Agent as agent on behalf of the Issuer the Advance (unless prior to this repayment the Payment is received by the Agent) and shall pay interest on the Advance (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) from (and including) the date such Advance is made to (but excluding) the earlier of repayment of the Advance or receipt by the Principal Paying Agent of the Payment (at a rate quoted at that time by the Principal Paying Agent as its cost of funding the Advance provided that evidence of the basis of such rate is given to the Issuer. For the avoidance of doubt, the Principal Paying Agent shall not be obliged to pay any amount to the Issuer if it has not received satisfactory confirmation that it is to receive such amount from a Dealer.

(6)Except in the case of issues where the Principal Paying Agent does not act as receiving bank for the Issuer in respect of the purchase price of the Notes being issued, if on the Issue Date a Dealer does not pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Note (the “Defaulted Note”) and, as a result, the Defaulted Note remains in the Principal Paying Agent’s distribution account with Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg after such Issue Date, the Principal Paying Agent will continue to hold the Defaulted Note to the order of the Issuer. The Principal Paying Agent shall notify the Issuer forthwith of the failure of the Dealer to pay the full purchase price due from it in respect of any Defaulted Note and, subsequently, shall

12

(i) notify the Issuer forthwith upon receipt from the Dealer of the full purchase price in respect of such Defaulted Note and (ii) pay to the Issuer the amount so received.

7.PAYMENTS

(1)The Issuer will on each date on which any payment in respect of any Note becomes due under the Conditions, transfer to an account specified by the Principal Paying Agent such amount in the relevant currency in immediately available and freely transferable funds as shall be sufficient for the purposes of such payment in funds settled through such payment system as the Principal Paying Agent and the Issuer may agree.

(6)Unless it has received notice pursuant to sub-clause (4)(a) above, each Paying Agent shall pay or cause to be paid all amounts due in respect of the Notes on behalf of the Issuer in the manner provided in the Conditions. If any payment provided for in sub-clause (1) is made late but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the relevant Paying Agent shall nevertheless make payments in respect of the Notes as aforesaid following receipt by it of such payment.

(7)If for any reason the Principal Paying Agent considers in its sole discretion that the amounts to be received by it pursuant to sub-clause (1) will be, or the amounts actually received by it pursuant thereto are, insufficient to satisfy all claims in respect of all payments then falling due in respect of the Notes, no Paying Agent shall be obliged to pay any such claims until the Principal Paying Agent has received the full amount of all such payments.

(8)Without prejudice to sub-clauses (6) and (7), if the Principal Paying Agent properly pays any amounts to the holders of Notes, Receipts or Coupons or to any other Paying Agent in accordance with this Agreement or the Conditions or at the request of the Issuer at a time when it has not received payment in full in respect of the relevant Notes in accordance with sub-clause (1) (the excess of the amounts so paid over the amounts so received being the “Shortfall”), the Issuer will, in addition to paying amounts due under sub-clause (1), pay to the Principal Paying Agent on demand interest (at a rate which represents the Principal Paying Agent’s cost of funding the Shortfall) on the Shortfall (or the unreimbursed portion thereof) until the receipt in full by the Principal Paying Agent of the Shortfall. If on the due date for payment of any amount in respect of the Notes, the Principal Paying Agent has not received payment in full in respect of the relevant Notes in accordance with sub-clause (1), the Principal Paying Agent shall forthwith notify the Issuer and PT.

(9)The Principal Paying Agent shall on demand promptly reimburse each other Paying Agent for payments in respect of Notes properly made by such Paying Agent in accordance with this Agreement and the Conditions unless the Principal Paying Agent has notified the relevant Paying Agent, prior to its opening of business on the due date of a payment in respect of the Notes, that the Principal Paying Agent does not expect to receive sufficient funds to make payment of all amounts falling due in respect of such Notes.

(10)Whilst any Notes are represented by Global Notes, all payments due in respect of such Notes shall be made to, or to the order of, the holder of the Global Notes, subject as provided in sub-

14

The Exchange Agent shall enter into a contract on behalf of the Issuer at or prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the second New York Business Day (as defined below) preceding the applicable payment date for the purchase of U.S. dollars with an amount of the relevant Specified Currency equal to the aggregate amount which DTC has notified the Exchange Agent that Beneficial Holders wish to receive in U.S. dollars. In the event that no such notification is received from DTC prior to the Record Date, the Exchange Agent shall enter into a contract for the purchase of U.S. dollars, as aforesaid, in respect of the full amount of the payment due in respect of the relevant DTC Note. The settlement date for each such purchase shall be the applicable payment date and the Exchange Agent shall enter into a contract for such purchase. The Exchange Agent shall, on the relevant payment day:

(i)pay all amounts converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with the above to DTC or its nominee for distribution to the relevant Beneficial Holders;

(ii)pay all the other amounts due which are denominated otherwise than in U.S. dollars direct to the relevant Beneficial Holders in accordance with the payment instructions received from DTC or its nominee.

(2)Interest Determination, Screen Rate Determination including Fallback Provisions

(a)Where Screen Rate Determination is specified in the applicable Final Terms as the manner in which the Rate of Interest is to be determined, the Rate of Interest for each Interest Period will, subject as provided below, be either:
