Under the terms of the Hybrid Securities, if no Credit Event occurs and Aggregate Loss Amount is not exceeding the Tranche Subordination Amount on or prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, the Hybrid Securities will be redeemed at 100% of the Denomination on the Maturity Date. Accordingly principal is at risk if Credit Events occurs with respect to the Reference Entities and that the Aggregate Loss Amount exceeding the Tranche Subordination Amount. In addition to the credit risk

of the Reference Entities, a Hybrid Security holder will also be exposed to the credit risk of the Issuer.

The Hybrid Securities encapsulated a hedging forward EURSEK position for a fixed quantity of 100% of the Issue Price. Thus the investor bears a residual forex risk at the Maturity Date in case the Aggregate Loss Amount exceeds the Tranche Subordination Amount.

The Hybrid Securities offer investors an Amount of Interest that is at risk if Credit event occurs with respect to the Reference Entities and that the Aggregate Loss Amount exceeding the Tranche Subordination Amount.

The prospective holder of the Hybrid Security agrees irrevocably to purchase the Hybrid Securities from Exane Derivatives by payment of an amount equal to the Issue Price on the Issue Date regardless of occurrence or non-occurrence of a Credit Event in respect of the Reference Entities from and including the Credit Event Backstop Date to and including the Maturity Date.

RISK FACTORS

The Hybrid Securities are Securities which are both credit-linked and underlying-linked with the Nominal Value being linked to one or more Reference Entities and to one or more Underlying(s). Return on a Holder's investment depends not only on the creditworthiness of the Issuer and the Reference Entities but also on the creditworthiness of the issuer or obligor of the Underlying(s) and the performance of the Underlying(s).

An investment in the Hybrid Securities entails significant risks that are not associated with similar investments in a conventional fixed or floating rate debt security. Hybrid Securities should only be purchased by investors who are, or who are purchasing under the guidance of, financial institutions that are in a position to understand the special risks that an investment in these instruments involves. These risks include, among other things, the possibility that:

the occurrence of one or more Credit Events which may result in the reduction of the Nominal Value of the Credit-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities and the amount and timing of principal and non-principal amounts payable in respect of the Hybrid Securities as a whole

the occurrence of one or more Events which may result in a reduction in, and a change in timing in payment of, amounts payable in respect of the Hybrid Securities;

the Underlying(s) may be subject to significant price changes which will affect the amounts payable in respect of the Underlying-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities and/or amounts payable in respect of the Hybrid Securities as a whole;

the repayment of principal and the payment of interest or other non-principal amounts can occur at times and in amounts other than those anticipated by the Holder of a Hybrid Security;

the risks of investing in the Hybrid Securities encompass risks relating to the Reference Entities, the Underlyings, the issuers and obligors in respect thereof, together with risks that are specific to the Hybrid Securities themselves;

any Hybrid Security that is indexed to more than one Reference Entity, Underlying or to formulas that encompass the risks associated with more than one type of asset, is likely to carry levels of risk that are greater than those linked to the Securities that are indexed to only one Reference Entity or one single type of Underlying;

it may not be possible for investors to hedge their general exposure to the risks relating to the Hybrid Securities or any exposure to any specific risk relating to the Hybrid Securities; and

any market disruption or extraordinary event could imply the disappearance of the Index or the Indices to which the Hybrid Securities may be linked.

In addition, the value of the Hybrid Securities is subject to greater levels of risk than the value of other securities. The secondary market, if any, for the Hybrid Securities may be affected by a number of factors, independent of the creditworthiness of the Issuer and Reference Entities and the value of the applicable Underlying(s), including the volatility of the Underlying(s), the time remaining to the maturity of such Hybrid Securities, the amount outstanding of such Hybrid Securities and market interest rates. The value of the applicable Underlying(s) and the likelihood of the occurrence of a Credit Event depend on a number of inter-related factors, including economic, financial and political events which are beyond the control of the Issuer. Any track record, financial data and/or economic figure concerning any Underlying(s) and/or Reference Entity should not be taken as a guarantee or an indication of future performance of such Underlying(s) and Reference Entities during the term of any Hybrid Security.

Credit-linkage

Amounts payable by the Issuer in respect of the Credit-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities are, inter alia, dependent on whether (i) a Credit Event has occurred in respect of the relevant Reference Entity(ies) and (ii) certain other events have occurred (for further information on risk factors, see the whole paragraph entitled Risk Factors). The occurrence of a Credit Event or such other event(s) may also impact on the amount(s) payable and the timing of payment of amount(s) in respect of the Underlying-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities. In certain circumstances, the Hybrid Securities will cease to bear interest (if any) or other non-principal amounts linked to the Underlying-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities and the value paid to Holders on settlement may be less than their original investment and may in certain circumstances be equal to zero.

The likelihood of a Credit Event occurring in respect of any Reference Entity will generally fluctuate with, among other things, the financial condition and/or other related characteristics of such Reference Entity, general economic conditions, conditions which may prevail on the financial markets, political situations or events, developments or trends in any particular industry. Prospective investors should review the Reference Entity/ies and conduct their own investigation and analysis assisted by any professional advisor they may deem necessary, with respect to the creditworthiness of each Reference Entity and the likelihood of the occurrence of a Credit Event with respect to each Reference Entity.

Any quotations obtained to determine the Settlement Amount may vary widely from dealer to dealer and substantially between Valuation Dates (if Multiple Valuation Dates apply). The Obligations selected, even in the absence of a Credit Event, may suffer from a substantial lack of liquidity which may be illiquid and such illiquidity may be expected to be more pronounced following the occurrence of a Credit Event, thereby having a material adverse impact on any determination of the value of such Obligation which in turn will impact on the Settlement Amount. Furthermore, the Calculation Agent is entitled to select the Obligation which has the lowest value in the market at the relevant time provided that such Obligation satisfies the criteria set out in the Final Terms.

Some Reference Obligations may have no, or only a limited, trading market. The liquidity of Reference Obligations will generally fluctuate with, among other things, the liquidity of the loan and bond markets, general economic conditions, conditions which may prevail on the financial markets, political situations and events and developments or trends in any particular industry. Prospective investors should review the Reference Entity/ies and conduct their own investigation and analysis with respect to the creditworthiness of each Reference Entity and the likelihood of the occurrence of a Credit Event with respect to each Reference Entity.

Some or all of the Reference Obligations may also be subject to restrictions on transfer and may be considered illiquid. If a Credit Event occurs in respect of a Reference Entity, any resulting diminution in market value of the related Reference Obligation or Reference Obligations could be further

magnified by reason of such limited liquidity.

The Issuer's obligations in respect of the Hybrid Securities are irrespective of the existence or risk of the Issuer's and/or any Affiliate's credit exposure to an Reference Entity and the Issuer and/or any Affiliate need not suffer any loss nor provide evidence of any loss as a result of the occurrence of a Credit Event.

Underlying-linkage

The Issuer shall select the Underlying(s) to which the Underlying-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities shall be linked, as specified in the Final Terms.

A Holder will not be a beneficial owner of the Underlying(s) or of the components of the Underlying(s). As such, depending on the type of Hybrid Security, a Holder may bear similar market risks or other risks to a direct investment in the Underlying(s) or the components thereof but will not be entitled to any voting rights or other control rights to which holders of the Underlying(s) or the components thereof would be entitled.

The return on the Underlying-Linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities will be determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith and consequently, such determination may not reflect the return the Holder would realise if he or she actually owned the Underlying(s) or the components thereof.

In certain circumstances, including following the occurrence of a Credit Event or an Event, the amount payable to Holders in respect of the Underlying-Linked Portion or the Credit-linked Portion of the Hybrid Securities will be calculated by the Calculation Agent in good faith by reference to the Fair Market Value or, as the case may be, the Capitalised Fair Market Value (each as defined in the Conditions) (which may be zero) at the relevant date of calculation and may be paid prior to or after the Scheduled Maturity Date. In such circumstances and due to the hybrid nature of the Hybrid Securities, the Holder could lose a substantial portion of the principal of such Security and non-principal amounts that would have accrued thereon.
