The Securities are being offered in Canada in the Provinces of Ontario and Québec as part of an offering that is
being made in one or more other countries (the "Offering"). The Offering is described fully in the attached
prospectus or offering memorandum (the "Offering Document"), the full text of which is included in this
Canadian Offering Memorandum and forms a part of it. The Offering Document may be supplemented by one or
more documents sent to you by the dealers acting as underwriters or initial purchasers (the "Dealers") concerning
the Offering, which may include a final term sheet containing pricing and other related information
("Supplementary Material"). The term Supplementary Material does not include the contents of any electronic
roadshow for the Offering. The full text of all Supplementary Material, if any, concerning the Offering shall also
be incorporated by reference into this Canadian Offering Memorandum and deemed to form a part of it.
Accordingly, the term "Canadian Offering Memorandum" means this introductory Canadian supplement,
together with the attached Offering Document and any Supplementary Material. The definitions in the Offering
Document (except as otherwise stated) apply throughout this Canadian Offering Memorandum.

ISSUER
Banc of America Securities Limited, Citigroup Global Markets Limited, Credit Suisse AG, London
Branch, Deutsche Bank Luxembourg SA, J.P. Morgan Limited and The Royal Bank of Scotland N.V. are
lenders under the Issuer's Credit Facility, and Goldman Sachs Bank USA and J.P. Morgan Limited were
lenders under the Issuer's standby liquidity facility, which was cancelled upon the issuance of the EUR
Capital Securities and the GBP Capital Securities. Additionally, the Dealers, in the ordinary course of
their business, have held and in the future may hold the Issuer's securities for investment. Accordingly, the
Issuer may be considered a "related" or "connected" issuer of the Dealers for the purposes of applicable
Canadian securities laws. For more information see the section titled "Managers transacting with the
Issuer" in the accompanying Offering Document. The decision to offer the Securities was made solely by
the Issuer and the terms upon which the Securities are being offered were determined by negotiation
between the Issuer and the Dealers. The Issuer is currently in compliance with the credit facilities
described above, and no breach thereof has been waived by any of the Dealers or their affiliates since the
execution of such facilities.

INDIRECT COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
By purchasing these Securities, the purchaser acknowledges that its name and other specified information,
including the number of Securities it has purchased, may be disclosed to Canadian securities regulatory
authorities and become available to the public in accordance with the requirements of applicable laws. The
purchaser consents to the disclosure of that information.
Notice to Ontario Purchasers
By purchasing these Securities, the purchaser acknowledges that personal information such as the purchaser's
name will be delivered to the Ontario Securities Commission (the "OSC") and that such personal information is
being collected indirectly by the OSC under the authority granted to it in securities legislation for the purposes of
the administration and enforcement of the securities legislation of Ontario. By purchasing these Securities, the
purchaser shall be deemed to have authorized such indirect collection of personal information by the OSC.
Questions about such indirect collection of personal information should be directed to the OSC's Administrative
Support Clerk, Suite 1903, Box 55, 20 Queen Street West, Toronto, Ontario M5H 3S8 or to the following
telephone number: (416) 593-3684.
RIGHTS OF ACTION (Ontario Purchasers)
Rule 45-501 provides that when an offering memorandum, such as this Canadian Offering Memorandum, is
delivered to an investor to whom securities are distributed in reliance upon the "accredited investor" prospectus
exemption in Section 2.3 of NI 45-106, the right of action referred to in Section 130.1 of the Securities Act
(Ontario) ("Section 130.1") is applicable unless the prospective purchaser is:
(a) a Canadian financial institution, meaning either:
(i)
an association governed by the Cooperative Credit Associations Act (Canada) or a central
cooperative credit society for which an order has been made under section 473(1) of that Act;
(ii) a bank, loan corporation, trust company, trust corporation, insurance company, treasury branch,
credit union, caisse populaire, financial services cooperative, or league that, in each case, is
authorized by an enactment of Canada or a jurisdiction of Canada to carry on business in Canada
or a jurisdiction in Canada;
(b) a Schedule III bank, meaning an authorized foreign bank named in Schedule III of the Bank Act
(Canada),
(c) The Business Development Bank of Canada incorporated under the Business Development Bank of
Canada Act (Canada), or
(d) a subsidiary of any person referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) or (c), if the person owns all of the voting
securities of the subsidiary, except the voting securities required by law to be owned by the directors of
the subsidiary.
Section 130.1 provides purchasers who purchase securities offered by an offering memorandum with a statutory
right of action against the issuer of securities and any selling securityholder for rescission or damages in the
event that the offering memorandum or any amendment to it contains a "misrepresentation", without regard to
whether the purchaser relied on the "misrepresentation". "Misrepresentation" means an untrue statement of a
material fact or an omission to state a material fact that is required to be stated or that is necessary to make any
statement not misleading in light of the circumstances in which it was made.
In the event that this Canadian Offering Memorandum, together with any amendment, is delivered to a
prospective purchaser of Securities in connection with a trade made in reliance on Section 2.3 of NI 45-106, and
this Canadian Offering Memorandum contains a misrepresentation which was a misrepresentation at the time of
purchase of the Securities, the purchaser will have a statutory right of action against the Issuers for damages or,
while still the owner of the Securities, for rescission, in which case, if the purchaser elects to exercise the right of
rescission, the purchaser will have no right of action for damages, provided that:
(a) no action shall be commenced more than, in the case of an action for rescission, 180 days after the date
of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action; or in the case of any other action, the earlier of
(i) 180 days after the plaintiff first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action, or (ii)
three years after the date of the transaction that gave rise to the cause of action;
- 3 -


(b) the defendant will not be liable if it proves that the purchaser purchased the Securities with knowledge
of the misrepresentation;
(c) the defendant will not be liable for all or any portion of the damages that it proves do not represent the
depreciation in value of the Securities as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon;
(d) in no case will the amount recoverable exceed the price at which the Securities were offered to the
purchaser; and
(e) the statutory right of action for rescission or damages is in addition to and does not derogate from any
other rights or remedies the purchaser may have at law.
This summary is subject to the express provisions of the Securities Act (Ontario) and the regulations and rules
made under it, and you should refer to the complete text of those provisions.
ENFORCEMENT OF LEGAL RIGHTS
The Issuer, its directors and officers, as well as any experts named in this document are or may be located outside
of Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible for purchasers to effect service of process within Canada upon
the Issuer or those persons. All or a substantial portion of the assets of the Issuer or those persons may be located
outside of Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible to satisfy a judgment against the Issuer or those persons
in Canada or to enforce a judgment obtained in Canadian courts against the Issuer or those persons outside of
Canada.
Each purchaser acknowledges that it has been notified that: (i) the Dealers are not registered as securities dealers
in any province or territory of Canada (or, if any are so registered, they are not relying upon their registration
status to trade the Securities); (ii) all or substantially all of the assets of the Dealers may be situated outside of
Canada; and (iii) there may be difficulty enforcing legal rights against the Dealers for these reasons.

including where principal or interest is payable in one or more currencies, or where the currency for
principal or interest payments is different from the potential investor's currency;
(d) understand thoroughly the terms of the Securities and be familiar with the behaviour of the relevant
financial markets and of any financial variable which might have an impact on the return on the Securities;
and
(e) be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for economic,
interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks.
The Securities are complex financial instruments and such instruments may be purchased by potential
investors as a way to reduce risk or enhance yield with an understood, measured, appropriate addition of risk to
their overall portfolios. A potential investor should not invest in the Securities unless it has the expertise (either
alone or with a financial adviser) to evaluate how the Securities will perform under changing conditions, the
resulting effects on the value of the Securities and the impact this investment will have on the potential investor's
overall investment portfolio.
Prospective investors should also consult their own tax advisers as to the tax consequences of the purchase,
ownership and disposition of the Securities.
The investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and regulations, or review
or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether
and to what extent (1) the Securities are legal investments for it, (2) the Securities can be used as collateral for
various types of borrowing and (3) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any of the Securities.
Financial institutions should consult their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate
treatment of Securities under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.
