Issuer dated 23 July 2015 pursuant to the powers delegated to the Managing Director by a resolution
of the Board of Directors of the Original Issuer dated 21 July 2015. The assumption of the Original
Issuer's obligations under the Bonds by Covivio, S.A. (the "Issuer") will take place by virtue of the
merger of the Original Issuer into the Issuer, expected to be effective at 11:59 pm on 31 December
2018 (the "Merger"). The Original Issuer entered into a Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agency
Agreement dated 3 August 2015 (the "Original Agency Agreement") relating to the Bonds with BNP
Paribas Securities Services, Luxembourg Branch (the "Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion
Agent", which expression shall include any successor as Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion
Agent under the Agency Agreement), the Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents for the time being
(such persons, together with the Principal Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agent, being referred to
below as the "Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents", which expression shall include their
successors as Paying, Transfer and Conversion Agents under the Agency Agreement) and BNP Paribas
Securities Services, Luxembourg Branch in its capacity as registrar (the "Registrar", which expression
shall include any successor as registrar under the Agency Agreement). The Agency Agreement includes
the form of the Bonds. The Original Issuer also entered into a Calculation Agency Agreement dated 3
August 2015 with Conv-Ex Advisors Limited (the "Calculation Agent" which expression shall include
any successor as calculation agent under the Calculation Agency Agreement) whereby the Calculation
Agent has been appointed to make certain calculations in relation to the Bonds. The holders of the
Bonds (the "Bondholders") are deemed to have notice of all of the provisions of the Agency
Agreement and the Calculation Agency Agreement applicable to them. The Issuer will assume the
obligations of the Original Issuer under the Agency Agreement and the Calculation Agency Agreement
by virtue of the Merger and pursuant to a supplemental paying, transfer and conversion agency
agreement (the "Supplemental Agency Agreement") dated on or about 20 December 2018. The
Original Agency Agreement as supplemented by the Supplemental Agency Agreement is referred to
herein as the "Agency Agreement".
Copies of the Agency Agreement, the Supplemental Agency Agreement and the Calculation Agency
Agreement are available for inspection at the specified offices of the Paying, Transfer and Conversion
Agents and the Registrar.
Each Bond will, subject as set out in these Terms and Conditions (the "Conditions"), entitle the holder
to convert such Bond into Ordinary Shares (as defined below) subject to the Issuer's right to make a
Cash Alternative Election, in each case in accordance with, and as described in, Condition 6.

certificate, as applicable) or

transfer thereof)) and no person will be liable for so treating the holder.

(including any uncalled capital) to secure any Relevant Indebtedness, or any guarantee or
