(1) Notification of material developments

(a) Except to the extent precluded by applicable law, the Issuer, PT and PTC shall promptly after becoming aware of the occurrence thereof notify each Dealer of:

(i) (A) any Event of Default or any condition, event or act which would after an issue of Notes (or would with the giving of notice and/or the lapse of time) constitute an Event of Default or (B) any breach of the representations and warranties or undertakings contained in the Agreements to which it is a party; and

(ii) any development affecting any of the Issuer, PT or PTC or any of their respective businesses which is material in the context of the Programme or any issue of Notes or which would cause the Offering Circular to include any untrue statement or omission.

(b) If, following the Agreement Date and before the Issue Date of the relevant Notes, the Issuer, PT or PTC becomes aware that the conditions specified in clause 3(2) will not be satisfied in relation to that issue, the Issuer, PT or PTC, as the case may be, shall forthwith notify the relevant Dealer to this effect giving full details thereof. In such circumstances, the relevant Dealer shall be entitled (but not bound) by notice to the Issuer, PT and PTC to be released and discharged from its obligations under the agreement reached under clause 2.

(c) Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer, PT and PTC shall from time to time promptly furnish to each Dealer, except to the extent precluded by applicable law, such information relating to the Issuer and PT as such Dealer may reasonably request.

(2) Updating of Offering Circular

(a) Before the first issue of Notes under the Programme after the annual anniversary of the date of this Agreement, the Issuer, PT and PTC shall update or amend the Offering Circular (following consultation with the Arranger who will consult with the Dealers) by the publication of a supplement thereto or a new Offering Circular.

(b) Subject as set out in the proviso below, in the event of (i) a significant new factor, material mistake or inaccuracy relating to the information included in the Offering Circular which is capable of affecting the assessment of the Notes arising or being noted, (ii) a change in the condition of the Issuer, PT or PTC which is material in the context of the Programme or the issue of any Notes or (iii) the Offering Circular otherwise coming to contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omitting to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading or if it is necessary at any time to amend the Offering Circular to comply with, or reflect changes in, the laws or regulations of The Netherlands or Portugal or any other relevant jurisdiction the Issuer, PT and PTC shall update or amend the Offering Circular (following consultation with the Dealers and the relevant Dealer (if any)) by the publication in accordance with Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive of a supplement to it or a new Offering Circular, in each case in a form approved by the Dealers provided that the Issuer, PT and PTC undertakes that in the period from and including an Agreement Date to and including the related Issue Date of the new Notes, it will only prepare and publish a supplement to, or replacement of, the Offering Circular if it is required, or has reasonable grounds to believe that it is required, to do so in order to comply with

Section 87G of the FSMA and, in such circumstances, such supplement to, or replacement of, the Offering Circular shall, solely as between the Issuer, PT and PTC and the relevant Dealer and solely for the purposes of Section 87Q(4) of the FSMA and clause 3.2(a), be deemed to have been prepared and published so as to comply with the requirements of Section 87G of the FSMA.

(c) Upon any supplement or replacement Offering Circular being prepared and published as provided above the Issuer, PT and PTC shall promptly without cost to the Dealers supply to each Dealer such number of copies of such supplement or replacement Offering Circular as each Dealer may reasonably request.

(3) Listing

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC:

(a) in the case of Notes which are intended to be listed on the London Stock Exchange confirms that it has made or caused to be made an application for the Programme to be listed on the London Stock Exchange; and

If in relation to any issue of Notes, it is agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer or the Lead Manager, as the case may be, to list such Notes on a Stock Exchange, each of the Issuer, PT and PTC undertakes to use its reasonable endeavours to obtain and maintain the listing of such Notes on such Stock Exchange. If any Notes cease to be listed on the relevant Stock Exchange, each of the Issuer, PT and PTC shall use reasonable endeavours promptly to list such Notes on a stock exchange to be agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer or, as the case may be, the Lead Manager. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Issuer, PT and PTC have obtained the listing of Notes on a regulated market in the European Economic Area, the undertaking extends to maintaining that listing or, if this is impracticable or unduly burdensome, to use all reasonable endeavours to obtain a listing of the relevant Notes on another European Economic Area regulated market.

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC shall comply with the rules of each relevant Stock Exchange (or any other relevant authority or authorities) and shall otherwise comply with any undertakings given by it from time to time to the relevant Stock Exchange (or any other relevant authority or authorities) in connection with any Notes listed on such Stock Exchange or the listing thereof and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, shall furnish or procure to be furnished to the relevant Stock Exchange (or any other relevant authority or authorities) all such information as the relevant Stock Exchange (or any other relevant authority or authorities) may require in connection with the listing on such Stock Exchange of any Notes.

(b) except in consultation with the Arranger, appoint a different Trustee under the Trust Deed,

and the Issuer, PT and PTC will promptly notify each of the Dealers of any termination of, or amendment to, any of the Agreements to which it is a party and of any change in the Trustee under the Trust Deed and/or the Principal Paying Agent or Registrar under the Agency Agreement.

(5) Lawful compliance

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC will at all times ensure that all necessary action in The Netherlands or Portugal is taken and all necessary conditions imposed by Dutch or Portuguese law are fulfilled (including, without limitation, the obtaining and, where relevant, maintenance in full force and effect of all necessary permissions, consents or approvals of all relevant governmental authorities) so that it may lawfully comply with its obligations under all Notes, the Agreements to which it is a party and, further, so that it may comply with any applicable laws and regulations from time to time promulgated by any Dutch or Portuguese governmental or regulatory authorities relevant in the context of the issue of Notes.

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC will notify the Dealers immediately in writing if any of the persons named in the list referred to in paragraph 3 of Part I of the Initial Documentation Lists ceases to be authorised to take action on its behalf or if any additional person becomes so authorised together, in the case of an additional authorised person, with evidence satisfactory to the Dealers that such person has been so authorised.

(7) Auditors’ comfort letters

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC will (i) at the time of the preparation of the initial Offering Circular, (ii) thereafter upon each occasion when the same may be revised, supplemented or amended, whether by means of information incorporated by reference or otherwise, (insofar as such revision, supplement, amendment or update concerns or contains financial information about the Issuer), (iii) thereafter in relation to any issue subscribed pursuant to a Subscription Agreement and (iv) at other times whenever so agreed with a Dealer deliver, at the expense of the Issuer, PT and PTC to the Dealers a comfort letter or comfort letters from independent auditors of the Issuer, PT or PTC, as the case may be, in such form and with such content as the Dealers may reasonably request provided that no such letter or letters will be delivered under paragraph (ii) above if the only revision, supplement or amendment

concerned is the publication or issue of any audited financial statements of an Issuer, PT or PTC, as the case may be.

If at or prior to the time of any agreement to issue and purchase Notes under clause 2 such a request is made with respect to the Notes to be issued, the receipt of the relevant comfort letter or letters in a form satisfactory to the relevant Dealer shall be a further condition precedent to the issue of those Notes to that Dealer.

(8) No other issues

During the period commencing on an Agreement Date and ending on the Issue Date with respect to any Notes which are to be listed, the Issuer will not, without the prior consent of the relevant Dealer or, as the case may be, the Lead Manager, issue or agree to issue any other listed Notes, bonds or other debt securities of whatsoever nature (other than Notes to be issued to the same Dealer) where such Notes, bonds or other debt securities are intended to be listed on a Stock Exchange and would have the same maturity, currency and interest basis or redemption/payment basis as the Notes to be issued on the relevant Issue Date.

(9) Information on Noteholders’ meetings

Each of the Issuer, PT and PTC will, at the same time as it is despatched, furnish the Dealers with a copy of every notice of a meeting of the holders of the Notes (or any of them) which are listed on any Stock Exchange which is despatched at the instigation of the Issuer, PT or PTC and will notify the Dealers immediately upon its becoming aware that a meeting of the holders of the Notes (or any of them) which are listed on any Stock Exchange has otherwise been convened.

(b) the redemption value of each Note is not less than £100,000 (or an amount of equivalent value denominated wholly or partly in a currency other than sterling), and no part of any Note may be transferred unless the redemption value of that part is not less than £100,000 (or such an equivalent amount).

(12) Passporting

If, in relation to any issue of Notes, the Issuer has agreed with the relevant Dealer(s) that the home Member State that approved the Offering Circular will be requested to provide a certificate of approval to the competent authority of one or more host Member State(s) under Article 17 and Article 18 of the Prospectus Directive then the arrangements relating to such request (including, but not limited to, the cost of preparing any summary required pursuant to Article 19(4) of the Prospectus Directive) will be agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer(s) at the relevant time.

In such case, the Issuer undertakes that it will use all reasonable endeavours to procure the delivery of a certificate of approval by the FSA to the competent authority in any host Member State in accordance with Article 17 and Article 18 of the Prospectus Directive and shall promptly notify each Dealer following receipt by the Issuer of confirmation that such certificate of approval has been so delivered.

(13) Announcements

The Issuer undertakes that it will not, between the Agreement Date and the Issue Date of the relevant Notes (both dates inclusive), without the prior approval of the relevant Dealer or the Lead Manager on behalf of the Managers (where more than one Dealer has agreed to purchase a particular Tranche of Notes), make any announcement which could have a material adverse effect on the marketability of the Notes.

If, under any applicable law and whether pursuant to a judgment being made or registered against the Issuer, PT or PTC or in the liquidation, insolvency or analogous process of the Issuer, PT or PTC or for any other reason, any payment under or in connection with this Agreement is made or falls to be satisfied in a currency (the “other currency”) other than that in which the relevant payment is expressed to be due (the “required currency”) under this Agreement, then, to the extent that the payment (when converted into the required currency at the rate of exchange on the date of payment or, if it is not practicable for the relevant Dealer to purchase the required currency with the other currency on the date of payment, at the rate of exchange as soon thereafter as it is practicable for it to do so or, in the case of a liquidation, insolvency or analogous process, at the rate of exchange on the latest date permitted by

applicable law for the determination of liabilities in such liquidation, insolvency or analogous process) actually received by the relevant Dealer falls short of the amount due under the terms of this Agreement, the Issuer, PT and PTC jointly and severally undertake that they shall, as a separate and independent obligation, indemnify and hold harmless such Dealer against the amount of such shortfall. For the purpose of this clause “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the relevant Dealer is able on the London foreign exchange market on the relevant date to purchase the required currency with the other currency and shall take into account any premium and other reasonable costs of exchange.

18. CALCULATION AGENT

(1) In the case of any Series of Notes which require the appointment of a Calculation Agent the Principal Paying Agent shall act as Calculation Agent, unless the relevant Dealer or, as the case may be, the Lead Manager requests the Issuer to appoint such Dealer or Lead Manager, or a person nominated by such Dealer or Lead Manager (a “Nominee”), as Calculation Agent.

(2) Should such a request be made to the Issuer the appointment of that Dealer, Lead Manager or Nominee shall be automatic upon the issue of the relevant Series of Notes and shall, except as agreed, be on the terms set out in the Calculation Agency Agreement set out in Schedule 1 to the Agency Agreement, and no further action shall be required to effect the appointment of such Dealer, Lead Manager or Nominee as Calculation Agent in relation to that Series of Notes, and the Schedule to the Calculation Agency Agreement shall be deemed to be duly annotated to include such Series. The name of the Dealer, Lead Manager or Nominee so appointed will be entered in the applicable Final Terms.

19. STABILISATION

(1) In connection with the distribution of any Notes, the Dealer (if any) designated as stabilising manager in the applicable Final Terms may over-allot or effect transactions which support the market price of such Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail, but in doing so such Dealer shall act as principal and not as agent of the Issuer, PT or PTC. Any stabilisation will be conducted in accordance with all applicable regulations. Any loss resulting from over-allotment and stabilisation shall be borne, and any net profit arising therefrom shall be retained, by any stabilising manager for its own account.

(2) The Issuer confirms that it has been informed of the existence of the informational guidance published by the Financial Services Authority in relation to stabilisation.

20. CONTRACTS (RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES) ACT 1999

A person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Agreement, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from that Act.

21. GOVERNING LAW AND SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION

(2) The Issuer, PT and PTC each hereby irrevocably agrees for the benefit of the Dealers that the courts of England are to have jurisdiction to settle any disputes which may arise out of or in connection with this Agreement and that accordingly any suit, action or proceedings (together referred to as “Proceedings”) including a dispute relating to any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may be brought in such courts.

The Issuer, PT and PTC each hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may have to the laying of the venue of any Proceedings in any such courts and any claim that any such Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum and hereby further irrevocably agrees that a judgment in any Proceedings brought in the English courts shall be conclusive and binding upon the Issuer, PT and PTC and may be enforced in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

Nothing contained herein shall limit any right to take Proceedings against the Issuer, PT or PTC in any other court of competent jurisdiction, nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not.

The Issuer, PT and PTC each hereby appoints Clifford Chance Secretaries Limited at its registered office at 10 Upper Bank Street, London E14 5JJ as its agent for service of process in England and agrees that, in the event of either such agent ceasing so to act or ceasing to be registered in England or New York, as the case may be, it will appoint another person as its agent for service of process in England or New York, as the case may be, in respect of any Proceedings.

Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(3) If the Issuer is represented by an attorney or attorneys in connection with the signing and/or execution and/or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or document referred to herein or made pursuant hereto and the relevant power or powers of attorney is or are expressed to be governed by the laws of The Netherlands, it is hereby expressly acknowledged and accepted by the other parties hereto that such laws shall govern the existence and extent of such attorney’s or attorneys’ authority and the effects of the exercise thereof.

Each Dealer also agrees that, at or prior to confirmation of sale of Notes, it will have sent to each distributor, dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases Notes from it during the distribution compliance period a confirmation or notice to substantially the following effect:

“The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (i) as part of their distribution at any time or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the completion of the distribution of the Securities as determined and certified by the relevant Dealer, in the case of a non-syndicated issue, or the Lead Manager, in the case of a syndicated issue, and except in either case in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

(c) if it is a United States person, each Dealer represents that it is acquiring Notes in bearer form for purposes of resale in connection with their original issuance and if it retains Notes in bearer form for its own account, it will only do so in accordance with the requirements of U.S. Treas.

Each issue of Index Linked Notes or Dual Currency Notes shall be subject to such additional U.S. selling restrictions as the Issuer and the relevant Dealer may agree as a term of the issue and purchase of such Notes, which additional selling restrictions shall be set out in the applicable Final Terms. The relevant Dealer agrees that it shall offer, sell and deliver such Notes only in compliance with such additional U.S. selling restrictions.

2. Public Offer Selling Restriction under the Prospectus Directive

provided that no such offer of Notes referred to in (a) to (c) above shall require the Issuer or any Dealer to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of Notes to the public” in relation to any Notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Notes, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State and the expression Prospectus Directive means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State) and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression 2010 PD Amending Directive means Directive 2010/73/EU.

(b) it has only communicated or caused to be communicated and will only communicate or cause to be communicated an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) received by it in connection with the

5. The Netherlands

Each Dealer represents and agrees that

Zero Coupon Notes (as defined below) in definitive form may only be transferred and accepted, directly or indirectly, within, from or into The Netherlands through the mediation of either the Issuer or a member firm of Euronext Amsterdam N.V., admitted in a function on one or more markets or systems held or operated by Euronext Amsterdam N.V., in accordance with the Dutch Savings Certificates Act (Wet inzake spaarbewijzen) of 21 May 1985 (as amended) and its implementing regulations.

No such mediation is required: (a) in respect of the transfer and acceptance of rights representing an interest in a Global Note; (b) in respect of the transfer and acceptance of Zero Coupon Notes in definitive form between individuals who do not act in the conduct of a business or profession; (c) in respect of the initial issue of Zero Coupon Notes in definitive form to the first holders thereof; or (d) in respect of the transfer and acceptance of such Zero Coupon Notes within, from or into The Netherlands if all Zero Coupon Notes (either in definitive form or as rights representing an interest in a Zero Coupon Note in global form) of any particular Series or Tranche are issued outside The Netherlands and are not distributed into The Netherlands in the course of initial distribution or immediately thereafter.

In the event that the Savings Certificates Act applies, certain identification requirements in relation to the issue and transfer of, and payments on, Zero Coupon Notes have to be complied with.

As used herein “Zero Coupon Notes” are Notes that are in bearer form and that constitute a claim for a fixed sum against the Issuer and on which interest does not become due during their tenor or on which no interest is due whatsoever.”

With regard to each Tranche, the relevant Dealer will be required to comply with such other restrictions as the Issuer and the relevant Dealer shall agree and as shall be set out in the applicable Final Terms.

In consideration of the Issuer appointing each New Dealer as a Dealer in respect of the Notes under the Programme Agreement, each New Dealer hereby undertakes, for the benefit of the Issuer, PT, PTC, the Lead Manager (for itself and each of the other Dealers) and the Managers, that, in relation to the issue of the Notes, it will perform and comply with all the duties and obligations expressed to be assumed by a Dealer under the Programme Agreement, a copy of which it acknowledges it has received from the Lead Manager. The Issuer, PT and PTC hereby confirm that each New Dealer shall be vested with all authority, rights, powers, duties and obligations of a Dealer in relation to the issue of the Notes as if originally named as a Dealer under the Programme Agreement provided that following the Issue Date of the Notes each New Dealer shall have no further such authority, rights, powers, duties or obligations except such as may have accrued or been incurred prior to, or in connection with, the issue of the Notes.

2. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Programme Agreement and this Agreement the Issuer hereby agrees to issue the Notes and the Managers jointly and severally agree to subscribe or procure subscribers for the Notes at a price of [specify] per cent. of the principal amount of the Notes (the “Purchase Price”), being the issue price of [specify] per cent. less a selling [commission/concession] of [specify] per cent. of such principal amount and a combined management and underwriting commission of [specify] per cent. of such principal amount.

3. The settlement procedures set out in Part [1/2] of Annexe A to the Procedures Memorandum shall apply as if set out in this Agreement provided that, for the purposes of this Agreement:

(i) the sum payable on the Issue Date shall represent the Purchase Price less any amount payable in respect of Managers’ expenses as provided in the agreement referred to in clause 4 of this Agreement;

(ii) “Issue Date” means [specify] a.m. ([specify] time) on [specify] or such other time and/or date as the Issuer and the Lead Manager on behalf of the Managers may agree; and

(iii) “Payment Instruction Date” means the Issue Date unless there is to be a pre-closing for the issue in which case it means the business day (being a day on which banks and foreign exchange markets are open for business in London) prior to the Issue Date.

4. The arrangements in relation to expenses have been separately agreed between the Issuer, PT, PTC and the Lead Manager.

5. The obligation of the Managers to purchase the Notes is conditional upon:

(i) the conditions set out in clause 3(2) (other than that set out in clause 3(2)(e)) of the Programme Agreement being satisfied as of the Payment Instruction Date (on the

basis that the references therein to “relevant Dealer” shall be construed as references to the Lead Manager) and without prejudice to the aforesaid, the Offering Circular dated [specify] [, as supplemented by [ ],] containing all material information relating to the assets and liabilities, financial position and profits and losses of the Issuer, PT and PTC and nothing having happened or being expected to happen which would require the Offering Circular [, as so supplemented,] to be [further] supplemented or updated; and

(ii) the delivery to the Lead Manager on the Payment Instruction Date of:

(A) legal opinions addressed to the Managers and the Trustee dated the Payment Instruction Date in such form and with such contents as the Lead Manager, on behalf of the Managers, may reasonably require from Clifford Chance LLP, the legal advisers to the Issuer as to Dutch law, from Serra Lopes, Cortes Martins & Associados, Sociedade de Advogados, R.L., the legal advisers to PT and PTC as to Portuguese law and from Allen & Overy LLP, the legal advisers to the Managers as to English law;

(B) a certificate dated as at the Payment Instruction Date signed by a duly authorised officer of the Issuer, a certificate dated as at the Payment Instruction Date signed by a duly authorised officer of PT and a certificate dated as of the Payment Instruction Date signed by a duly authorised officer of PTC giving confirmation to the effect stated in paragraph (i) of this clause;

(C) comfort letters dated the [date hereof and the] Payment Instruction Date from the independent auditors of each of the Issuer, PT and PTC, in such form and with such content as the Managers may reasonably request; and

(D) such other conditions precedent as the Lead Manager may require.

If any of the foregoing conditions is not satisfied on or before the Payment Instruction Date, this Agreement shall terminate on such date and the parties hereto shall be under no further liability arising out of this Agreement (except for any liability of the Issuer in relation to expenses as provided in the agreement referred to in clause 4 and except for any liability arising before or in relation to such termination If the Issuer shall have insufficient funds to meet its obligations under this paragraph, PT and PTC shall make or have made available to the Issuer, before the due date for the fulfilment of such obligations, funds sufficient to enable the Issuer to meet such obligations, in full as they fall due), provided that the Lead Manager, on behalf of the Managers, may in its discretion waive any of the aforesaid conditions (other than the condition precedent contained in clause 3(2)(c) of the Programme Agreement) or any part of them.

6. The Lead Manager, on behalf of the Managers, may, by notice to the Issuer, PT and PTC, terminate this Agreement at any time prior to payment of the net purchase money to the Issuer if in the opinion of the Lead Manager (after consultation with Issuer, if practicable) there shall have been such a change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would in its view be likely to prejudice materially the success of the offering and distribution of the Notes or dealings in the Notes in the secondary market and, upon such notice being given, the parties to this Agreement shall (except for any liability of the Issuer, or failing the Issuer, PT and/or PTC in relation to expenses as provided in the agreement referred to in clause 4 of this Agreement

and except for any liability arising before or in relation to such termination) be released and discharged from their respective obligations under this Agreement.

7. A person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Agreement, but this does not affect any right or remedy of a third party which exists or is available apart from the Act.

8. Clauses 20 and 21 of the Programme Agreement shall also apply to this Agreement as if expressly incorporated herein.

9. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement and any party may enter into this Agreement by executing a counterpart.
