(i)
Index/Formula/other
variable:
For each Interest Period from and
including February 22, 2015 to but
excluding the Maturity Date, or the
Automatic Early Redemption Date (as
defined below) as the case may be, the
Notes will bear interest payable in
amounts determined in accordance with
the provisions set out below:
Specified Denomination x [6.20 x (EUR
10 years CMS - EUR 2 years CMS)] x
Day Count Fraction
For the avoidance of doubt the last
Interest Amount will be payable on the
Maturity Date or on the Automatic Early
Redemption Date in case of the
occurrence of an Early Redemption
Event.
An Early Redemption Event shall occur
in respect of a Specified Interest Payment
Date if the sum of (i) all Interest Amounts
per Specified Denomination paid in
respect of all preceding Specified Interest
Payment Dates plus (ii) the Interest
Amount to be paid on the relevant
Specified Interest Payment Date reach or
exceed the Trigger Level (as defined
below). In such case, the Notes will be
redeemed automatically at par on this
specific Specified Interest Payment Date
(the "Automatic Early Redemption
Date").
If on the Maturity Date the sum of the
Interest Amounts paid up to but excluding
the last Specified Interest Payment Date
is less than the Trigger Level, the last
Interest Amount will not be adjusted in
order to reach such Trigger Level.
Therefore the sum of the Interest
Amounts paid over the life of the Notes
may be less than the Trigger Level.
The Calculation Agent shall notify the
Issuer of the occurrence of an Automatic
Early Redemption Event at the latest five
Target Business Days after the Fixing
Date relating to the Interest Period.
Where :
"Trigger Level" means 42.50 per cent.
