For the purposes of this issue the Conditions shall be deemed amended by the deletion of Condition 8(d) (Redemption at the option of the Noteholders (Investor Put)) and the substitution therefore of the following wording:

If at any time while any Note remains outstanding there occurs a Change of Control and, within the Change of Control Period, a Rating Downgrade occurs as a result of that Change of Control or as a result of a Potential Change of Control (a Put Event), the holder of each Note will have the option (the Put Option) (unless, prior to the giving of the Put Event Notice (as defined below), the Issuer gives notice of its intention to redeem the Notes under Condition 8(b)) to require the Issuer to redeem or, at the Issuer's option, to procure the purchase of that Note on the Optional Redemption Date (as defined below) at its principal amount together with (or, where purchased, together with an amount equal to) accrued interest to but excluding the Optional Redemption Date.

A Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred at each time (whether or not approved by the board of directors or senior management of the Issuer) that any person (Relevant Person) or persons acting in concert or any person or persons acting on behalf of any such person(s), at any time directly or indirectly acquires, (A) more than 50 per cent. of the issued ordinary share capital of the Issuer or (B) such number of the shares in the capital of the Issuer carrying more than 50 per cent. of the voting rights normally exercisable at a general meeting of the Issuer, provided that a Change of Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if the shareholders of the Relevant Person are also, or immediately prior to the event which would otherwise constitute a Change of Control were, all of the shareholders of the Issuer.

Change of Control Period means:

(a) the period commencing on the date of the first public announcement of the relevant Change of Control and ending on the date which is 180 days thereafter (inclusive) provided that:

(i) a Rating Downgrade occurs during that period; and
(ii) such Rating Downgrade results from a Change of Control; or

(b) the period commencing 180 days prior to the date of the first public announcement of the relevant Change of Control and ending on the date of such announcement (inclusive) provided that:

(i) a Rating Downgrade occurs during that period; and

---

(ii) such Rating Downgrade results from a Potential Change of Control.

Investment Grade Rating means a rating of BBB- by S&P or their equivalent for the time being, or better.

Potential Change of Control means any public announcement or statement by the Issuer or any actual or potential bidder relating to any potential Change of Control.

Rating Agency means Standard & Poor's Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (S&P) and their successor or any other rating agency of equivalent international standing requested from time to time by the Issuer to assign a rating to the Notes.

A Rating Downgrade shall be deemed to have occurred as a result of a Change of Control or as a result of a Potential Change of Control if within the Change of Control Period the rating previously assigned to the Notes by any Rating Agency is (x) withdrawn or (y) changed from an Investment Grade Rating to a non Investment Grade Rating (BB+ by S&P or their equivalent for the time being, or worse) or (z) (if the rating previously assigned to the Notes by any Rating Agency was below an Investment Grade Rating) lowered one full rating category (for example, from BB+ to BB by S&P or such similar lower or equivalent rating), provided that a Rating Downgrade otherwise arising by virtue of a particular change in rating shall only be deemed to have occurred as a result of a particular Change of Control or Potential Change of Control, as the case may be, if in making the relevant change in rating referred to above, the relevant Rating Agency publicly announces or publicly confirms or confirms in writing to the Issuer that such change in rating resulted, in whole or in part, from the occurrence of the Change of Control or the Potential Change of Control, as the case may be.

Promptly upon the Issuer becoming aware that a Put Event has occurred, the Issuer shall give notice (a Put Event Notice) to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 15 specifying the nature of the Put Event and the circumstances giving rise to it and the procedure for exercising the option contained in this Condition 8(d).

To exercise the option to require redemption or, as the case may be, purchase of a Note under this Condition 8(d) the holder of that Note must, if the Note is in definitive form and held outside Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, deliver such Note, on any Payment Day (as defined in Condition 7) in the city of the specified office of the relevant Paying Agent falling within the period (the Put Period) of 45 days after a Put Event Notice is given, at the specified office of any Paying Agent, accompanied by a duly signed and completed notice of exercise in the form (for the time being current) obtainable from the specified office of any Paying Agent (a Put Option Notice) and in which the holder must specify a bank account (or, if payment is required to be made by cheque, an address) to which payment is to be made under this Condition 8(d). The Note should be delivered together with all Coupons appertaining thereto maturing after the date (the Optional Redemption Date) which is the seventh day after the last day of the Put Period, failing which an amount will be deducted from the payment to be made by the Issuer on redemption or, as the case may be, purchase of the Notes corresponding to the aggregate amount payable in respect of such missing Coupons.

If this Note is represented by a Global Note or is in definitive form and held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, to exercise the right to require redemption or, as the case may be, purchase of a Note under this Condition 8(d) the holder of the Note must, within the Put Period, give notice to the Principal Paying Agent of such exercise in accordance with the standard procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (which may include notice being given on his instruction by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or any common depositary for them to the Principal Paying Agent by electronic means) in a form acceptable to Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg from time to time and, if this Note is represented by a Global Note, at the same time present or procure the presentation of the relevant Global Note to the Principal Paying Agent for notation accordingly.

---

The Paying Agent to which such Note and Put Option Notice are delivered will issue to the holder concerned a non-transferable receipt (a Put Option Receipt) in respect of the Note so delivered or, in the case of a Global Note or Note in definitive form held through Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, notice so received. The Issuer shall redeem or at the option of the Issuer purchase (or procure the purchase of) the Notes in respect of which Put Option Receipts have been issued on the Optional Redemption Date, unless previously redeemed and purchased. Payment in respect of any Note so delivered will be made, if the holder duly specified a bank account in the Put Option Notice to which payment is to be made, on the Optional Redemption Date by transfer to that bank account and in every other case on or after the Optional Redemption Date, in each case against presentation and surrender or (as the case may be) endorsement of such Put Option Receipt at the specified office of any Paying Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Condition 8(d).
