1.	INTRODUCTION

This document (the “Supplementary Document”) has been issued to supplement the
information provided in the information document relating to the capital
increase charged to voluntary reserves approved by the ordinary general
shareholders’ meeting of Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (“BBVA” or the
“Bank”) held on March 16, 2012, under item 4.1 of the fourth point of its agenda
(the “Capital Increase”), which was published by means of a relevant event on
March 28, 2012, with filing number 160866 (the “Information Document”).
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them
in the Information Document.

This Supplementary Document sets forth below the information relating to the
Capital Increase which was outstanding at the date of publication of the
Information Document and, in particular, the number of shares to be issued (with
the possibility of incomplete subscription being expressly provided for), the
number of free allotment rights necessary to receive one new share (“NAR”) and
the price at which BBVA has undertaken to acquire free allotment rights from
shareholders, in the terms set forth in the Information Document.

This Supplementary Document and the Information Document have been issued in
accordance with articles 26.1.e) and 41.1.d) of Royal Decree 1310/2005, of
November 4, which provide that the preparation and publication of a prospectus
related to the issuance and admission to listing of the shares issued as a
consequence of the execution of the Capital Increase will not be necessary
“provided that a document is made available containing information on the number
and nature of the shares and the reasons for and details of the offer”. This
Supplementary Document together with the Information Document constitute such
document. This Supplementary Document and the Information Document are available
on the CNMV’s website (www.cnmv.es) and the Bank’s website (www.bbva.com).

2.	SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION TO THE INFORMATION DOCUMENT

The Executive Committee of BBVA, in its meeting held on April 11, 2012, has
agreed to implement the Capital Increase in accordance with the terms approved
by the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting of BBVA held on March 16, 2012,
under item 4.1 of the fourth point of its agenda, and by the Board of Directors
of BBVA, in its meeting held on March 28, 2012. In accordance with the formulas
approved by these bodies, the Executive Committee has approved the following
parameters concerning the Capital Increase:

(i)	The number of new shares to be issued as a consequence of the execution of
the Capital Increase (“New Shares”) will be 107,682,603 New Shares.

  Accordingly, the aggregate nominal value of the Capital Increase will be
€52,764,475.47, which is the product of multiplying the number of New Shares
107,682,603 by the nominal value of €0.49 per New Share.

The number of New Shares to be issued is the result of applying the formulas
provided for in the applicable resolution adopted by the ordinary general
shareholders’ meeting of BBVA held on March 16, 2012, under item 4.1 of the
fourth point of its agenda, and by the Board of Directors of BBVA, in its
meeting held on March 28, 2012, considering that the number of old shares
outstanding is 5,061,082,378  (“NOS”), that the reference market value is
€615,000,000 (“RMV”) and that the reference price is €5.677 (“reference price”
or “RP”).   On this basis:

(a)	The number of rights to be assigned (“rights to be assigned” or “NAR”) is
47, in accordance with the formula in the shareholders’ and board’s resolutions
(rounded up to the nearest whole number):

NAR = RP x NOS / RMV

which, as applied, results in:

NAR = €5.677 x 5,061,082,378 / 615,000,000 = 47

(b)	The number of New Shares to be issued is 107,682,603 New Shares, in
accordance with the formula in the shareholders’ and board’s resolutions
(rounded down to the nearest whole number):

New Shares = NOS / NAR

which, as applied, results in:

New Shares = 5,061,082,378 / 47 = 107,682,603

Notwithstanding this, the number of New Shares actually issued and, as a result,
the nominal value of the Capital Increase may be less than the foregoing
depending on the number of rights acquired by the Bank pursuant to its
undertaking to acquire the free allotment rights for a fixed price.  BBVA will
waive the free allotment rights acquired pursuant to such undertaking.  As a
result, only those shares corresponding to the free allotment rights which have
not been acquired by BBVA pursuant to its undertaking will be issued.

The New Shares will be issued at their nominal value of forty-nine euro cents
(€0.49) per New Share, without issuance premium.

(ii)	The number of rights necessary to receive one New Share is 47.
BBVA shareholders who appear as such in the book-entry registries of Sociedad de
Gestión de los Sistemas de Registro, Compensación y Liquidación de Valores, S.A.
(“Iberclear”) at 23:59 Madrid time on the day of publication of the announcement
of the Capital Increase in the Official Bulletin of the Commercial Registry
(“Boletín Oficial del Registro Mercantil”) (envisaged for April 13, 2012) will
receive a free allotment right for each BBVA share held.

 Consequently, such shareholders will have a right to receive one New Share for
each 47 shares held by them on such date.

To ensure that all free allotment rights are effectively exercisable and that
the number of New Shares to be issued is a whole number, BBVA has renounced 37
rights corresponding to 37 shares held as treasury shares.

(iii)	The fixed purchase price of each freely allotted right assumed by BBVA is
€0.118 per right, in accordance with the formula approved by the ordinary
general shareholders’ meeting of BBVA held on March 16, 2012, under item 4.1 of
the fourth point of its agenda, and by the Board of Directors of BBVA, in its
meeting held on March 28, 2012 (rounded to the nearest thousandth of a euro and,
in the case of a half of a thousandth of a euro, the immediately higher
thousandth of a euro):

Purchase price = RP / (NAR +1)

which, as applied, results in:

Purchase price = 5.677 / (47 + 1) = €0.118

Accordingly, shareholders who wish to receive a dividend in cash can sell their
rights to BBVA at a gross fixed price of €0.118 per right.

As indicated in the Information Document, this option is granted exclusively to
the shareholders of BBVA who have such condition at the time the free allotment
rights are allocated and only in connection with the free allotment rights which
are originally allocated to them at such time; accordingly, this option will not
be available in respect of any free allotment right acquired through a market
purchase.

BBVA’s undertaking to acquire rights at this fixed price will be in effect from
the first trading day of the rights, which is expected to take place on April
16, 2012 through April 25, 2012, both inclusive.
