This general description of the Programme contains the Terms and Conditions of the Additional Tier 1 Conversion

will be incorporated by reference into each Additional Tier 1 Conversion Note. The relevant Pricing Supplement in
relation to any Series of Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes will specify specific terms and conditions which shall, to
the extent so specified or to the extent inconsistent with these Terms and Conditions, replace and modify the
following Terms and Conditions for the purposes of such Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes. The relevant Pricing
Supplement will be endorsed upon, or attached to, each Additional Tier 1 Conversion Note. The paragraphs appearing
in italics below are included for disclosure purposes only and do not form part of the terms and conditions of the
Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes.
Nordea Bank Abp, a public limited liability company incorporated in Finland ("Nordea" or the "Issuer"), has established
a Global Medium-Term Note Programme (the "Programme") for the issuance of up to U.S.$25,000,000,000 (or
its equivalent in another currency calculated as described herein) in aggregate principal amount of debt instruments
(the "Notes" including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes). The Programme size
may be increased from time to time without the consent of the holders of Notes.
The Notes are issued in accordance with and subject to a fiscal and paying agency agreement dated 27 November 2018 (as
amended and/or restated and/or replaced from time to time up to the first Issue Date (as defined below) of the relevant
Series of Notes, the "Agency Agreement"), between the Issuer, Citibank, N.A., London Branch in its capacity as
fiscal agent (the "Fiscal Agent"), as paying and conversion agent (the "Paying and Conversion Agent") and as
registrar (the "Registrar") (each such expression including any successor to Citibank, N.A., London Branch in its

Paying Agent", which expression includes any successor to Citibank, N.A., acting through its New York branch in its
capacity as such) and the paying agent(s) named therein (the "Paying Agent(s)", and which expression shall include the
Fiscal Agent, Paying and Conversion Agent and U.S. Paying Agent and any substitute or additional paying agents
appointed in accordance with the Agency Agreement). The Notes have the benefit of a deed of covenant (the "Deed of
Covenant") dated 27 November 2018 (as amended and/or restated and/or replaced from time to time up to the first
Issue Date of the relevant Series of Notes), executed by the Issuer in relation to the Notes. Copies of the Agency
Agreement and the Deed of Covenant are available for inspection at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent. All
persons from time to time holding any Notes shall be deemed to have notice of all of the provisions of the Agency
Agreement and the Deed of Covenant insofar as they relate to the Notes.
The Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes are issued in separate series (each, a "Series") and the Additional Tier 1
Conversion Notes of each Series will all be subject to identical terms whether as to currency, denomination, interest or
maturity or otherwise (except the issue price, Issue Date and interest commencement date, which may or may not be
identical in connection with further issuances).
Each Series will be the subject of a pricing supplement document (the "Pricing Supplement") endorsed upon or
attached to each Additional Tier 1 Conversion Note a copy of which, in the case of a Series in relation to which application
has been made for admission to the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange plc trading as Euronext Dublin ("Euronext
Dublin") and admission to trading on the Global Exchange Market, will be filed with Euronext Dublin and will be
available for inspection at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent on or before the date of issue of the Additional Tier
1 Conversion Notes of such Series. In the case of a Series in relation to which application has not been made for
admission to listing, trading and/or quotation on any stock exchange, listing authority and/or quotation system, copies of the
Pricing Supplement will only be available for inspection by a holder of such Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes
producing evidence to the Issuer and the Fiscal Agent as to its holding of Additional Tier 1 Conversion Notes and
