NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and for the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. Amendments. Effective as of the date hereof:
(a) Section 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended adding the following new definition of Bail-In Action in its entirety in the appropriate alphabetical order:
Bail-In Action means the exercise by the Bank of England (or any successor resolution authority) of any write-down or conversion power existing from time to time (including, without limitation, any power to amend or alter the maturity of eligible liabilities of an institution under resolution or amend the amount of interest payable under such eligible liabilities or the date on which interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period and together with any power to terminate and value transactions) under, and exercised in compliance with, any laws, regulations, rules or requirements in effect in the United Kingdom relating to the transposition of the European Banking Recovery and Resolution Directive as amended from time to time, including but not limited to, the Banking Act 2009 as amended from time to time, and the instruments, rules and standards created thereunder, pursuant to which our obligations (or those of our affiliates) can be reduced (including to zero), cancelled or converted into shares, other securities, or other obligations of ours or any other person.
(b) Section 3 of the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following new clauses (k) and (l) at the end thereof as follows:
(k) Contractual Recognition of Bail-In. Seller acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding with Purchaser, any of Purchasers liabilities, as the Bank of England (or any successor resolution authority) may determine, arising under or in connection with this Agreement may be subject to Bail-In Action and Seller accepts to be bound by the effect of:
(i) any Bail-In Action in relation to such liability, including (without limitation):
(a) a reduction, in full or in part, of any amount due in respect of any such liability;
(b) a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred on, Seller; and
(c) a cancellation of any such liability; and
(ii) a variation of any term of this Agreement to the extent necessary to give effect to Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability.
(l) Contractual Recognition of UK Stay In Resolution. Where a resolution measure is taken in relation to any BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking and that BRRD undertaking or any member of the same group as that BRRD undertaking is a party to this Agreement (any such party to this Agreement being an Affected Party), each other party to this Agreement agrees that it shall only be entitled to exercise any termination right under this Agreement against the Affected Party to the extent that it would be entitled to do so under the Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of any part of the United Kingdom.
For the purpose of this Section 3(l), resolution measure means a crisis prevention measure, crisis management measure or recognised third-country resolution action, each with the meaning given in the PRA Rulebook: CRR Firms and Non-Authorised Persons: Stay in Resolution Instrument 2015, as may be amended from time to time (the PRA Contractual Stay Rules), provided, however, that crisis prevention measure shall be interpreted in the manner outlined in Rule 2.3 of the PRA Contractual Stay Rules ; Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD) undertaking, group, Special Resolution Regime and termination right have the respective meanings given in the PRA Contractual Stay Rules.

Seller agrees to pay the reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agent and the Purchaser in connection with this Amendment (including all reasonable fees and out of pocket costs and expenses of Purchasers legal counsel) in accordance with Section 23 of the Agreement.
