The notes will bear interest on their Aggregate Principal Amount from (and including) January 25, 2011 to (but excluding) the first Interest Payment Date (as defined below) and thereafter from (and including) each Interest Payment Date to (but excluding) the next following Interest Payment Date (each such period, an “Interest Period”). Interest on the notes will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. The interest rate applicable for an Interest Period will be determined on the applicable Interest Determination Date (as defined below).

3-Month LIBOR:

  

3-Month LIBOR, as determined by the Calculation Agent (as defined below), will be the rate for deposits in U.S. dollars with maturities of three months that appears on the Screen Page (as defined below) as of 11:00 A.M. (London time), on the applicable Interest Determination Date.

 

If, as at such time, the Screen Page is not available or if no such quotation appears, the reference rate for the determination of the Interest Rate for the relevant Interest Period (the “Reference Rate”) will be the rate calculated by the Calculation Agent based on at least two offered quotations obtained by the Calculation Agent after requesting the principal London office of each of four major banks in the London interbank market (which may include the Calculation Agent, the paying agents or their affiliates), as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for a period of three months, commencing on the first London Business Day (as defined below) of the relevant Interest Period, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) on that


  

Interest Determination Date and in a Representative Amount (as defined below). If at least two quotations are provided as requested, the Reference Rate for the relevant Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the quotations provided. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the Reference Rate will be the arithmetic mean (rounded if necessary to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards) of the quotations at approximately 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the applicable Interest Determination Date, by the principal London office of each of three major banks (which may include the Calculation Agent, the paying agents or their affiliates), selected by the Calculation Agent, for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, for a period of three months, commencing on the first London Business Day of the relevant Interest Period and in a Representative Amount.

 

“London Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which credit institutions are open for business in London.

 

“Representative Amount” means an amount that is representative for a single transaction in the relevant market at the relevant time.

Interest Amount:

  

The Calculation Agent will, on or as soon as practicable after each Interest Determination Date, determine the Interest Rate and calculate the amount of interest payable on the notes for the relevant Interest Period (the “Interest Amount”). Each Interest Amount will be calculated by applying the Interest Rate and the Day Count Fraction to the Aggregate Principal Amount of the notes and rounding the resultant figure to the nearest U.S. cent (with 0.5 U.S. cents being rounded upwards).

 

The Calculation Agent will cause the Interest Rate, each Interest Amount for each Interest Period, each Interest Period and the relevant Interest Payment Date to be notified to the Issuer, the paying agents and the noteholders as soon as possible after determination,


  

but in no event later than the fourth London Business Day thereafter and, if required by the rules of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, also to be notified to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange as soon as possible after determination. Each Interest Amount and Interest Payment Date so notified may subsequently be amended (or appropriate alternative arrangements made by way of adjustment) without notice in the event of an extension or shortening of the Interest Period. Any such amendment will be promptly notified to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and the noteholders.

 

All certificates, communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for these purposes by the Calculation Agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be binding on the Issuer, the paying agents and the noteholders.
