Dear Sirs

Proposed issue of Additional Tier 1 Perpetual Capital Securities (the "Capital Securities") by United
Overseas Bank Limited (the "Bank")

The Bank is proposing to undertake an offering (the "Offer") of the Capital Securities on the terms set out in a
offering circular dated 11 May 2016 (the "Offering Circular") which is being sent to you with this letter.

The Capital Securities are complex financial instruments and are not a suitable or appropriate investment for all
investors. In some jurisdictions, regulatory authorities have adopted or published laws, regulations or guidance
with respect to the offer or sale of securities such as, or with features similar to those of, the Capital Securities to
retail investors.

In particular, in June 2015, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") published the Product Intervention
(Contingent Convertible Instruments and Mutual Society Shares) Instrument 2015, which took effect from 1 October
2015 (the "PI Instrument").

Under the rules set out in the PI Instrument (as amended or replaced from time to time, the "PI Rules"):

i.
certain contingent write-down or convertible securities (including any beneficial interests therein), such as
the Capital Securities, must not be sold to retail clients in the EEA; and

ii.
there must not be any communication or approval of an invitation or inducement to participate in, acquire or
underwrite such securities (or the beneficial interest in such securities) where that invitation or inducement
is addressed to or disseminated in such a way that it is likely to be received by a retail client in the EEA (in
each case, within the meaning of the PI Rules), other than in accordance with the limited exemptions set out
in the PI Rules.

By purchasing, or making or accepting an offer to purchase, any Capital Securities from the Bank and/or United
Overseas Bank Limited, Credit Suisse (Singapore) Limited, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited
and Standard Chartered Bank (the "Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners"), you represent, warrant, agree with
and undertake to the Bank and each of the Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners that:

(a)
you are not a retail client in the EEA (as defined in the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority's
handbook);

(b)
you will not sell or offer the Capital Securities to retail clients in the EEA or do anything (including
the distribution of the Offering Circular) that would or might result in the buying of the Capital
Securities or the holding of a beneficial interest in the Capital Securities by a retail client in the EEA,
other than in relation to any sale or offer to sell Capital Securities to a retail client in any EEA Member
State, where: (i) you have conducted an assessment and concluded that the relevant retail client
understands the risks of an investment in the Capital Securities and is able to bear the potential losses
involved in an investment in the Capital Securities; and (ii) you have at all times acted in relation to
such sale or offer in compliance with the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (2004/39/EC)
("MiFID") to the extent it applies to you or, to the extent MiFID does not apply to you, in a manner which
would be in compliance with MiFID if it were to apply to you; and

(c)
you have complied and will at all times comply with all applicable laws, regulations and regulatory
guidance (whether inside or outside the EEA) relating to the promotion, offering, distribution and/or sale
of the Capital Securities, including any such laws, regulations and regulatory guidance relating to
determining the appropriateness and/or suitability of an investment in the Capital Securities by
investors in any relevant jurisdiction.



Where you are acting as agent on behalf of a disclosed or undisclosed client when purchasing, or making
or accepting an offer to purchase, any Capital Securities from the Bank and/or the Joint Lead Managers and
Bookrunners the foregoing representations, warranties, agreements and undertakings will be given by and be
binding upon both you as agent and your underlying client.

You acknowledge that the Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the
representations, warranties, agreements and undertakings set forth herein and is entitled to rely upon this letter and
is irrevocably authorised to produce this letter or a copy hereof to any interested party in any administrative or legal
proceeding or official inquiry with respect to the matters covered hereby. This letter is additional to, and shall not
replace, the obligations set out in any pre-existing general engagement terms entered into between you and the Joint
Lead Managers and Bookrunners relating to the matters set out herein.

Capitalised but undefined terms used in this letter shall have the meaning given to them in the Offering Circular.

This document is not an offer to sell or an invitation to buy any Capital Securities.

Your offer or agreement to buy any Capital Securities will be evidence of your acceptance of the terms of this
letter.

This letter and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by Singapore
law.

The courts of Singapore have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this
letter (including a dispute relating to the existence or validity of this letter or any non-contractual obligations arising
out of or in connection with this letter) or the consequences of its nullity.

Should you require any further information, please do contact us.

Yours faithfully



The Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners

Offering Circular dated 11 May 2016


United Overseas Bank Limited
(incorporated with limited liability in the Republic of Singapore)
(Company Registration Number 193500026Z)

S$750,000,000 4 per cent. Non-Cumulative Non-Convertible Perpetual Capital
Securities
Issue price: 100 per cent.


The S$750,000,000 4 per cent. Non-Cumulative Non-Convertible Perpetual Capital Securities (the "Capital Securities") will be issued by United
Overseas Bank Limited ("UOB" or the "Issuer") and will be constituted by a trust deed to be entered into between the Issuer and DB International Trust
(Singapore) Limited, as trustee (the "Trustee"). Capitalised terms used herein shall have the same meaning as defined in the Terms and Conditions of the
Capital Securities (the "Conditions") (see "Terms and Conditions of the Capital Securities").
Distributions will be calculated (1) at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum of the Prevailing Principal Amount in respect of the period from (and
including) 18 May 2016 (the "Issue Date") to (but excluding) 18 May 2021 (the "First Call Date"); and (2) at the Relevant Reset Distribution Rate of the
Prevailing Principal Amount in respect of the period from (and including) the First Call Date and each Reset Date falling thereafter to (but excluding) the
immediately following Reset Date, and will be payable semi-annually in arrear on 18 May and 18 November of each year (each, a "Distribution Payment
Date") subject to the cancellation of Distributions (see "Terms and Conditions of the Capital Securities ­ Distribution Cancellation").
The Issuer may, at its sole discretion, elect to cancel any Distribution which is otherwise scheduled to be paid on a Distribution Payment Date by
giving notice of such election to the Securityholders, the Trustee and the Agents at least 10 business days prior to the rele vant Distribution Payment Date. In
addition, the Issuer will not be obliged to pay, and will not pay, any Distribution on the relevant Distribution Payment Date if: (a) the Issuer is prevented by
applicable Singapore banking regulations or other requirements of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (the "MAS") from making payment in full of
dividends or other distributions when due on Parity Obligations; (b) such payment on Parity Obligations would cause a breach of the MAS' published
consolidated or unconsolidated capital adequacy requirements from time to time applicable to the Issuer; or (c) the Issuer has insufficient Distributable
Reserves.
The Capital Securities constitute direct, unsecured and subordinated obligations of the Issuer which rank pari passu and without any preference
among themselves. Subject to the insolvency laws of Singapore and other applicable laws, in the event of a Winding-Up of the Issuer (other than pursuant to a
Permitted Reorganisation), the rights of the Securityholders to payment of principal and Distributions on the Capital Securities and any other obligations in
respect of the Capital Securities are expressly subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all claims of Senior Creditors
(which includes holders of Tier 2 Capital Securities) and will rank senior to all Junior Obligations. The Capital Securities will rank pari passu with Parity
Obligations.
The Capital Securities are perpetual securities and have no fixed final redemption date. However, subject to applicable laws and the satisfaction of the
applicable Redemption or Variation Conditions (which includes the approval of the MAS), the Issuer may (a) redeem the Capital Securities, in whole but not
in part, on (i) the First Call Date or any Distribution Payment Date thereafter; (ii) any day while a Tax Event has occurred and is continuing; or (iii) any day
while a Change of Qualification Event has occurred and is continuing; or (b) vary the terms of the Capital Securities so that they remain or become Qualifying
Securities.
Upon the occurrence of a Loss Absorption Event, the Issuer shall, in accordance with the Conditions, cancel any Distribution which is accrued (a nd
unpaid) up to the relevant Loss Absorption Measure Effective Date; and if the cancellation of Distributions together with the cancellation of interest, dividend
and/or distribution on any other Loss Absorbing Instruments on or before the relevant Loss Absorption Measure Effective Date, is in aggregate insufficient to
result in the relevant Loss Absorption Event no longer continuing, irrevocably (without requiring the consent of the Securityholders) procure that the Registrar
reduce the Prevailing Principal Amount by the relevant Write Down Amount. Once the Prevailing Principal Amount has been Written Down in accordance
with the Conditions, the relevant Write Down Amount(s) will be extinguished and shall not be restored in any circumstances. Each Capital Security may be
Written Down on more than one occasion up to the full amount of the Prevailing Principal Amount.
The Capital Securities will be issued in registered form in the denomination of S$250,000. The Capital Securities will be represented by a global
certificate (the "Global Certificate") in registered form which will be registered in the name of The Central Depository (Pte) Limited (the "Depository" or
"CDP") on or about the Issue Date. Individual certificates (the "Certificates") evidencing holdings of Capital Securities will be available only in certain
limited circumstances described under "Summary of Provisions Relating to the Capital Securities while in Global Form".
Approval in-principle for the listing and quotation of the Capital Securities on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the "SGX-ST")
has been received. The SGX-ST assumes no responsibility for the correctness of any of the statements made, reports contained or opinions expressed in this
Offering Circular. Approval in-principle for the listing and quotation of the Capital Securities is not to be taken as an indication of the merits of the Capital
Securities, the Issuer, its subsidiaries and/or its associated companies.
Investing in the Capital Securities involves risks. Please see "Risk Factors".
The Capital Securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Capital
Securities are being offered in offshore transactions outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S") and,
subject to certain exceptions, may not be offered or sold within the United States.
This Offering Circular has not been and will not be registered as a prospectus with the MAS. Accordingly, this Offering Circular and any other
document or material in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of the Capital Securities may not be circulated or
distributed, nor may the Capital Securities be offered or sold, or be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, whether directly or
indirectly, to persons in Singapore other than (i) to an institutional investor under Section 274 of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the
"SFA"), (ii) to a relevant person pursuant to Section 275(1) of the SFA, or any person pursuant to Section 275(1A) of the SFA, and in accordance with the
conditions specified in Section 275 of the SFA or (iii) otherwise pursuant to, and in accordance with the conditions of, any other applicable provisions of the
SFA.
The Capital Securities are not intended to be sold and should not be sold to retail clients in the EEA, as defined in the rules set out in the Product
Intervention (Contingent Convertible Instruments and Mutual Society Shares) Instrument 2015, as amended or replaced from time to time, other than in
circumstances that do not and will not give rise to a contravention of those rules by any person. Prospective investors are referred to the section headed
"Restrictions on marketing and sales to retail investors" on page iv of this Offering Circular for further information.
The Capital Securities are expected to be rated "BBB" by Fitch Ratings and "A3" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. A credit rating is not a
recommendation to buy, sell or hold the Capital Securities, does not address the likelihood or timing of repayment of the Capital Securities and may be subject
to revision, suspension or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organisation. Such ratings should be evaluated independently of any other rating of
the Capital Securities, the Issuer's other securities or the Issuer.
Prospective investors are referred to the section "Important" for information regarding certain restrictions on marketing and sales to retail
investors.

NOTICE TO INVESTORS

Agreements and acknowledgments of investors, including holders and beneficial owners

Distribution Cancellation

As described in this Offering Circular, the terms of the Capital Securities provide that Distributions on the
Capital Securities will be due and payable only at the Issuer's full discretion, and the Issuer will have sole and
absolute discretion at all times and for any reason to cancel (in whole or in part) any distribution payment that
would otherwise be payable on any Distribution Payment Date. As described herein, the terms of the Capital
Securities also provide for circumstances under which the Issuer will be restricted from making a distribution
payment (in whole or in part) on the Capital Securities on a Distribution Payment Date, and the Distributions
payable in respect of any such Distribution Payment Date shall be deemed cancelled (in whole or in part) and
therefore not due and payable. Distributions will only be due and payable on a Distribution Payment Date to the
extent it is not cancelled or deemed cancelled in accordance with the terms of the Capital Securities and as further
described herein.

As the Capital Securities are perpetual and have no fixed maturity or fixed redemption date, a holder may
not receive any payments with respect to the Capital Securities as the Issuer is not required to pay the principal
amount of the Capital Securities at any time prior to a Winding-up or dissolution of the Issuer and the Issuer will
have the sole and absolute discretion at all times and for any reason to cancel in whole any distribution payment.

By its acquisition of the Capital Securities, each holder and beneficial owner acknowledges and agrees that
(1) Distributions are payable solely at the Issuer's discretion, and no amount of Distributions shall become due
and payable in respect of the relevant distribution period to the extent that it has been cancelled by the Issuer at
the Issuer's sole discretion and/or deemed cancelled as result of our having insufficient Distributable Items; and
(2) a cancellation or deemed cancellation of Distributions (in whole or in part) in accordance with the terms of the
Trust Deed and the Capital Securities shall not constitute a default in payment or otherwise under the terms of the
Capital Securities or the Trust Deed. Distributions will only be due and payable on a Distribution Payment Date
to the extent it is not cancelled or deemed cancelled in accordance with the provisions described above. Any
Distributions cancelled or deemed cancelled (in each case, in whole or in part) in the circumstances described
herein shall not be due and shall not accumulate or be payable at any time thereafter, and holders and beneficial
owners shall have no rights thereto or to receive any additional distribution or compensation as a result of such
cancellation or deemed cancellation.

Neither the delivery of this Offering Circular (or any part thereof) nor the issue, offering, purchase or sale
of the Capital Securities shall, under any circumstances, constitute a representation, or give rise to any
implication, that there has been no change in the prospects, results of operations or general affairs of the Issuer or
any of its subsidiaries or associated companies (if any) or in the information herein since the date hereof or the
date on which this Offering Circular has been most recently amended or supplemented.

The distribution of this Offering Circular and the offering or sale of the Capital Securities in certain
jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this Offering Circular comes are required
by the Issuer, and the Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners to inform themselves about and to observe any such
iii



restriction. The Capital Securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or with any
securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. Subject to certain exceptions,
Capital Securities may not be offered or sold within the United States. For a description of certain restrictions on

RESTRICTIONS ON MARKETING AND SALES TO RETAIL INVESTORS

The Capital Securities are complex financial instruments and are not a suitable or appropriate investment
for all investors. In some jurisdictions, regulatory authorities have adopted or published laws, regulations or
guidance with respect to the offer or sale of securities such as, or with features similar to those of, the Capital
Securities to retail investors.

In particular, in June 2015, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") published the Product
Intervention (Contingent Convertible Instruments and Mutual Society Shares) Instrument 2015, which took effect
from 1 October 2015 (the "PI Instrument").

Under the rules set out in the PI Instrument (as amended or replaced from time to time, the "PI Rules"):

i. certain contingent write-down or convertible securities (including any beneficial interests therein), such as
the Capital Securities, must not be sold to retail clients in the EEA; and

ii. there must not be any communication or approval of an invitation or inducement to participate in, acquire
or underwrite such securities (or the beneficial interest in such securities) where that invitation or
inducement is addressed to or disseminated in such a way that it is likely to be received by a retail client
in the EEA (in each case, within the meaning of the PI Rules), other than in accordance with the limited
exemptions set out in the PI Rules.

By purchasing, or making or accepting an offer to purchase, any Capital Securities from the Issuer and/or
the Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners, each prospective investor represents, warrants, agrees with and
iv



undertakes to the Issuer and each of the Joint Lead Managers and Bookrunners that:

(a)
it is not a retail client in the EEA (as defined in the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority's
handbook);

(b)
it will not sell or offer the Capital Securities to retail clients in the EEA or do anything (including
the distribution of this Offering Circular) that would or might result in the buying of the Capital
Securities or the holding of a beneficial interest in the Capital Securities by a retail client in the EEA,
other than in relation to any sale or offer to sell Capital Securities to a retail client in any EEA
Member State, where: (i) it has conducted an assessment and concluded that the relevant retail client
understands the risks of an investment in the Capital Securities and is able to bear the potential losses
involved in an investment in the Capital Securities; and (ii) it has at all times acted in relation to such
sale or offer in compliance with Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (2004/39/EC) ("MiFID")
to the extent it applies to it or, to the extent MiFID does not apply to it, in a manner which would be
in compliance with MiFID if it were to apply to it; and

(c)
it has complied and will at all times comply with all applicable laws, regulations and regulatory
guidance (whether inside or outside the EEA) relating to the promotion, offering, distribution and/or
sale of the Capital Securities, including any such laws, regulations and regulatory guidance relating to
determining the appropriateness and/or suitability of an investment in the Capital Securities by
investors in any relevant jurisdiction.

Where acting as agent on behalf of a disclosed or undisclosed client when purchasing, or making or
accepting an offer to purchase, any Capital Securities from the Issuer and/or the Joint Lead Managers and
Bookrunners, the foregoing representations, warranties, agreements and undertakings will be given by and be
binding upon both the agent and its underlying client.
