Relevant Exchange: Related Exchange: Early Redemption at Current Market Value: Early Redemption Amount: Early Redemption Charge: The primary exchange for each Reference Security, as set forth in the table above. The exchanges or quotation systems, if any, on which options or futures contracts on the Reference Securities are traded or quoted, and as may be selected from time to time by the Calculation Agent. Each depositor will be entitled to redeem his or her CDs in whole, but not in part, on any Early Redemption Date (as defined on the front cover), subject to an Early Redemption Charge. No fewer than ten Business Days prior to an Early Redemption Date, a depositor, through the Agent from whom he or she bought the CDs, may obtain from the Calculation Agent an estimate of the Early Redemption Amount (as defined below) applicable to that Early Redemption Date. This estimate is provided for informational purposes only, and neither the Bank nor the Calculation Agent will be bound by the estimate. If a depositor redeems his or her CDs on any Early Redemption Date, he or she will be entitled solely to the actual Early Redemption Amount calculated by the Calculation Agent and will not be entitled to an amount in respect of any further Coupon Payment Amount or any other return on his or her CDs. Further, the Early Redemption Amount will be subject to an Early Redemption Charge and may be less (and may be substantially less) than the Principal Amount paid for the CDs. A depositor may request early redemption of the CDs in whole, but not in part, on an Early Redemption Date by notifying the Agent from whom he or she bought the CDs (who must then notify the Bank) no later than 3:00 p.m. EST/EDT on the fifth Business Day before the Early Redemption Date. All early redemption requests (whether written or oral) are irrevocable. The Calculation Agent will determine the Early Redemption Amount on the third Business Day prior to the related Early Redemption Date (the Early Redemption Valuation Date ), and the depositor will receive the Early Redemption Amount for each CD so redeemed on the related Early Redemption Date. For any Early Redemption Date, the Current Market Value, where Current Market Value means the bid price for the CDs as of the related Early Redemption Valuation Date as determined by the Calculation Agent based on its financial models and objective market factors less an Early Redemption Charge. If the Early Redemption Valuation Date is not a Scheduled Trading Day for any Reference Security, then the Early Redemption Valuation Date will be the next Exchange Business Day that is a Scheduled Trading Day for each of the Reference Securities. If a Market Disruption Event exists on the Early Redemption Valuation Date, then the Early Redemption Valuation Date will be postponed for up to five Scheduled Trading Days. If the Early Redemption Valuation Date is so postponed, then the related Early Redemption Date will also be postponed until the third Business Day following the date to which the Early Redemption Valuation Date is postponed and no interest will be payable in respect of any such postponement. A depositor will not be entitled to any return on his or her CD if that depositor elects to redeem his or her CD on any Early Redemption Date. Further, the Early Redemption Amount may be less (and may be substantially less) than the Principal Amount of the CD. For each CD redeemed on an Early Redemption Date, an amount equal to the Principal Amount multiplied by the applicable Early Redemption Charge as set forth in the table below: Year 1 2 3 4 5 6 Early Redemption Charge 4.00% 3.00% 2.00% 1.00% 0.00% 0.00% For purposes of the Early Redemption Charges: Year 1 is defined as: from and including the Trade Date to (but excluding) the first anniversary of the Trade Date; Year 2 is defined as: from and including the first anniversary of the Trade Date to (but excluding) the second anniversary of the Trade Date; 5

Early Redemption upon the Death of a Depositor: Market Disruption Event: Calculation Agent: In the event of the death of any depositor of CDs, the full withdrawal of the Principal Amount of the CDs of that depositor will be permitted. In that event, the successor of that depositor shall give prior written notice of the proposed withdrawal to the Issuer, together with appropriate documentation to support the request, within 180 days of the death of such depositor. In that event, only a full withdrawal of the Principal Amount of the CDs will be permitted. CDs so redeemed will not be entitled to any return on the Principal Amount in respect of interest or the Coupon Payment Amount. As described herein. HSBC Bank Bermuda Ltd. All determinations and calculations made by the Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the depositors of the CDs. Listing: Risk Factors: None. See Risk Factors herein. The purchase of the CDs involves certain risks. See Risk Factors herein for a discussion of some of the factors which should be considered by prospective purchasers of the CDs. 6

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS What Are the CDs? The CDs are certificates of deposit issued by the Issuer. The CDs mature on the Maturity Date. Depositors of the CDs also have the right to cause the Issuer to redeem their CDs in whole, but not in part, as described below. Redemptions may occur optionally upon the death of a depositor. Each CD represents an initial deposit by a depositor to the Issuer of $10,000 Principal Amount, and the CDs will be issued in integral multiples of $1,000 Principal Amount in excess thereof. Depositors will not have the right to receive physical certificates evidencing their ownership of the CDs except under limited circumstances; instead the Issuer will issue the CDs in book-entry form. What Amount Will Depositors Receive at Maturity in Respect of the CDs? At the scheduled maturity (and not upon an Early Redemption by the depositor), the amount depositors will receive for each CD will be equal to the Maturity Redemption Amount, which will equal A) the Principal Amount of the CD plus B) any Coupon Payment Amount due on the Maturity Date, as described in the Summary of Terms above. The annual percent age yield on the CD is only determinable at maturity. The Maturity Redemption Amount and the Coupon Payment Amounts, if any, will not include dividends paid on the Reference Securities. Apart from the Coupon Payment Amounts, if any, no interest will be paid, either for periods prior to the Settlement Date, during the term of the CDs or at or after maturity. For more information, see Summary of Terms above. What Coupon Payment Amount will be paid on the CDs? On each Coupon Payment Date, the Coupon Payment Amount will equal the Principal Amount multiplied by the Coupon Rate. The Coupon Rate on each such Coupon Payment Date will be variable and will be equal to the greater of the A) the arithmetic average of the Reference Security Returns for the Reference Securities, and B) zero. With respect to any Reference Security, the Reference Security Return as of any Coupon Valuation Date will be: If the Valuation Share Price is greater than or equal to the Initial Share Price, an amount equal to the Auto Cap Rate; or If the Valuation Share Price is less than the Initial Share Price, an amount equal to the greater of A) the Reference Security Performance, and (B) the Floor Rate. What Amount Will Depositors Receive if They Exercise Their Early Redemption Right? The redemption proceeds paid by the Issuer upon an Early Redemption will be the Early Redemption Amount, which will equal the Current Market Value of the CD as determined by the Calculation Agent in good faith based on its financial models and objective market factors less an Early Redemption Charge. There is no guarantee that a depositor who redeems a CD on any Early Redemption Date will receive his or her full Principal Amount or any return on his or her CD. See Early Redemptions above in the Summary of Terms. What about Liquidity? There is currently no established secondary trading market for the CDs. There is no assurance that a secondary market for the CDs will develop, or if it develops, that it will continue. In the event that a depositor could find a buyer of his or her CD, it is likely that the price a buyer would be willing to pay would be net of the commissions paid or discount allowed to the Agents on the initial placement of the CDs. Prospective depositors should carefully consider all of the information set forth in these Terms and Conditions and, in particular, should evaluate the specific risk factors set forth under Risk Factors. 7

RISK FACTORS Purchasing the CDs is not equivalent to investing directly in the Reference Securities. It is suggested that prospective depositors considering purchasing CDs reach a decision to purchase only after carefully considering, with their financial, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors, the suitability of the CDs in light of their particular circumstances and the risk factors set forth below and other information set forth in these Terms and Conditions. You will be subject to certain risks not associated with conventional fixed-rate or floating-rate CDs or debt securities. The CDs are not suitable for purchase by all people. No person should purchase the CDs unless he or she understands and is able to bear the associated market, liquidity and yield risks. Because of the numerous factors that may affect the value of the Reference Securities, no assurance can be given that depositors of the CDs will receive any Coupon Payment Amount during the term of the CDs. Depositors must understand that they have no interest in the Reference Securities or other asset and neither they, nor the Issuer on their behalf nor any Agent on their behalf, will have any recourse against any Reference Issuer (as defined herein) or rights in the Reference Securities either contractually or statutorily. Depositors in the CDs will not receive any payments in respect of dividends or other distributions that may be payable on the Reference Securities, nor will depositors be entitled to any voting rights or other control rights that holders of the Reference Securities may have with respect to the Reference Issuers. None of the Reference Issuers are affiliates of the Issuer, and none are involved in the CDs in any way. The obligations represented by the CDs are obligations of the Issuer and are not obligations of the Reference Issuers. Depositors Are Not Guaranteed the Receipt of the Principal Amount of their CDs, and will be subject to an Early Redemption Charge, if they Redeem the CDs Early. The CDs are designed so that if, and only if, they are held to maturity, the depositor will receive no less than the Principal Amount of his or her CDs. If a depositor redeems the CDs early at his or her option, the depositor will not be entitled to any further Coupon Payment Amount or any other return on his or her CDs. In addition, the proceeds received by such a depositor will be net of an Early Redemption Charge. As a result, the proceeds payable upon an Early Redemption may be less (and may be substantially less) than the Principal Amount of the CDs. See Summary of Terms Early Redemption sections in these Terms and Conditions. Depositors will have no protection against events affecting the Reference Issuers. A depositor of the CDs will be subjected to the same events affecting the Reference Issuers and the price of the Reference Securities to which shareholders of the Reference Issuers are subjected, but will not have direct rights against either the Reference Issuers or us. Prospective purchasers of the CDs should review the various risk factors contained in the reports and other information which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission ), posted on websites or otherwise made publicly available by the Reference Issuers with respect to themselves and the Reference Securities. Changes in the price of one or more of the Reference Securities may wholly or partially offset each other. Price movements in the Reference Securities may not correlate with each other. At a time when the price of one or more of the Reference Securities increases, the price of one or more of the other Reference Securities may not increase as much, or may even decrease. Therefore, in calculating the Coupon Rate, increases in the price of one or more of the Reference Securities may be moderated, or wholly offset, by lesser increases or decreases in the price of one or more of the other Reference Securities. You cannot predict the future performance of any of the Reference Securities or of the Basket as a whole, or whether increases in the price of any of the Reference Securities will be offset by decreases in the price of other Reference Securities, based on their historical 8

performance. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Reference Security Return in the aggregate for the Reference Securities will be positive on any given Coupon Valuation Date such that you will receive any Coupon Payment Amount on the corresponding Coupon Payment Date. Investing in the CDs is not equivalent to investing in the Basket or the individual Reference Securities. Because the Reference Security Return of each of the Reference Securities is limited to the Auto Cap Rate of [7.50]% per Reference Security when each annual Coupon Payment Amount is calculated, it is possible for the Coupon Rate on the CDs for any given Coupon Payment Date to be substantially less than the simple price return of the Basket as measured from the Initial Fixing Date to the applicable Coupon Valuation Date. In addition, while the Auto Cap Rate will operate to limit your participation in the increase in the price of any Reference Security on a given annual Coupon Valuation Date to [7.50]% per Reference Security, you will be exposed to any decline in the price of any other Reference Security down to the Floor Rate -30.00%. Because the Floor Rate -30.00% is larger than the Auto Cap Rate of [7.50]% in respect to each Reference Security, the negative performance of one Reference Security may more that offset the positive performance of one or more of the other Reference Securities. Consequently, it is possible that declines in one or a few of the Reference Securities could offset any increases in the price of one or more Reference Securities that are limited by the Auto Cap Rate and that you could earn no Coupon Payment Amount even though the simple price return of the basket would have been positive on the applicable Coupon Valuation Date. There are additional risks relating to CDs with an American depositary share ( ADR ) as a Reference Security. You will have limited antidilution protection. The Calculation Agent may adjust the Maturity Redemption Amount by adjusting the terms of the CDs for certain actions taken by the depository for any Reference Security that is an ADR, which action affect any such Reference Security. However, the Calculation Agent is not required to make an adjustment for actions taken by the depository that can affect such Reference Security. If an action is taken by the depository that is perceived by the market to have a diluting or concentrative effect on such Reference Security but that does not require the Calculation Agent to adjust the terms of the CDs, you may be materially and adversely affected. Securities linked to the value of foreign equity securities involve additional risks. You should be aware that investments in CDs linked to the value of foreign equity securities such as any Reference Security that is an ADR might involve particular risks. Direct or indirect government intervention to stabilize the foreign securities markets may affect trading prices and volumes in those markets where any such Reference Security trades. In addition other special risks associated with investment in emerging markets may include, but are not necessarily limited to: difficulties in enforcing contracts; less liquidity and smaller market capitalizations; lesser regulation of securities markets; different accounting and disclosure standards; governmental interference; higher inflation and social, economic and political uncertainties. These risks may affect the trading value of any Reference Security linked to a foreign equity security and a such the Coupon Rate on the CDs. You are subject to the risk of fluctuating foreign exchange rates. Reference Securities are quoted and traded in U.S. Dollars and, to the extent that any such Reference Securities are ADRs, may trade at different prices from the relevant underlying foreign equity securities, which are quoted and traded in their respective local currency. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the relevant local currency of the foreign equity securities and the U.S. Dollar may affect the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the local currency price of the relevant underlying foreign equity securities on the respective foreign stock exchange(s) on which they trade. These fluctuations may affect the market price of the Reference Security and, consequently, affect the value of the CDs. An Investor in the CDs is Subject to Risks Associated with Foreign Securities Markets. Because Reference Securities that are ADRs are publicly traded in their respective foreign countries, investments in the CDs involve particular risks. For example, the foreign securities markets may be more volatile than the United States securities markets, and market developments may affect these markets differently from the United States or other securities markets. Direct or indirect government intervention to stabilize the securities markets outside the United States, as well as cross-shareholdings in certain companies, may affect trading prices and trading volumes in those markets. Also, the public availability of information concerning foreign issuers may vary depending on their home jurisdiction and the reporting requirements imposed by their respective regulators. In addition, the foreign 9

issuers may be subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements that differ from those applicable to United States reporting companies. Securities prices generally are subject to political, economic, financial and social factors that apply to the markets in which they trade and, to a lesser extent, foreign markets. Securities prices outside the United States are subject to political, economic, financial and social factors that apply in foreign countries. These factors, which could negatively affect foreign securities markets, include the possibility of changes in a foreign government s economic and fiscal policies, the possible imposition of, or changes in, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions applicable to foreign companies or investments in foreign equity securities and the possibility of fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies. Moreover, foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States economy in important respects such as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency. No Secondary Market for the CDs Exists. Depositors May Require the Issuer to Redeem the CDs Prior to Maturity Pursuant to the Early Redemption Provisions, but Depositors May Suffer Losses. There is currently no secondary market for the CDs. The Issuer does not intend to apply for listing of the CDs on any securities exchange, quotation of the CDs through the Nasdaq National Market System or designation for trading in the PORTAL market. There is no assurance that a secondary market for these CDs will develop, or if it develops, that it will continue. Even if a secondary market develops, there can be no assurance that it will provide significant liquidity. The Issuer intends to quote bid prices periodically upon depositor request, but is under no obligation to do so. In the event that the Issuer no longer provides such quotes, it may be difficult to obtain reliable information about the value of the CDs. The CDs are most suitable for purchasing and holding to maturity. Adverse Economic Interests to Depositors. HSBC Bank Bermuda Ltd. is the Calculation Agent and will be solely responsible for the determination and calculation of the Maturity Redemption Amount (including the components thereof in connection with the Coupon Payment Amount) and any other determinations and calculations in connection with the CDs. Because the Issuer is the Calculation Agent, it may have economic interests adverse to those of the depositors, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the Calculation Agent must make in determining, for example, the Coupon Payment Amount, if any, on any Coupon Payment Date or if a Market Disruption Event has occurred. However, the Calculation Agent is obligated to carry out its duties and functions as calculation agent in good faith and using its reasonable judgment. Market conditions and events affecting the Reference Securities may negatively impact the Coupon Payment Amounts received by depositors. Depositors should be aware that a considerable decrease in the price of any particular Reference Security in any year (whether due to general economic conditions or an extraordinary event affecting such Reference Security) may materially limit the likelihood of a depositor receiving any Coupon Payment Amount in that year and potentially subsequent years for the remainder of the CD term. For example, upon an event such as a delisting of a Reference Security, the likelihood of a depositor receiving a Coupon Payment Amount in the year of the event and for the remainder of the CD term, notwithstanding the positive performance of other Reference Securities, may be materially limited. Such an event would also negatively impact the value of the CD in the secondary market, if any. Conflicts of Interest HSBC BANK OF BERMUDA LIMITED, HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES AND/OR INDIVIDUALS ASSOCIATED THEREWITH MAY HAVE POSITION IN THE PRODUCTS, THE UNDERLYING REFERENCE SECURITIES COMPRISING THE CONSTITUENT SECURITIES OF THE CERTIFICATES (INCLUDING DERIVATIVES THEREON), AND THE FOREGOING ENTITIES MAY DEAL IN THE FOREGOING FROM TIME TO TIME. SUCH DEALINGS MAY HAVE AN EFFECT, ADVERSE OR OTHERWISE ON THE PRICE, VALUE OF THE REFERENCE SECURITIES, THE CERTIFICATES AND/OR THE RETURNS THEREON 10

DESCRIPTION OF THE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT The following information is a summary of the CD itself and the Reference Securities to which the CD is linked. All disclosures contained in these Terms and Conditions regarding the Reference Securities are derived from publicly available information prepared by the Reference Issuer. Information with Respect to the Reference Securities Each potential depositor of a CD should review the reports and other information which have been filed with the Commission, posted on websites or otherwise made publicly available by the Reference Issuers with respect to the Reference Securities. Depositors of the CDs are hereby informed that the reports and other information on file with the Commission or that is otherwise publicly available to which depositors are referred are not and will not be incorporated by reference herein. Neither the Issuer of the CDs nor any of its affiliates will undertake to review the financial condition or affairs of the Reference Issuers during the life of the CDs or to advise any depositor or potential depositor in the CDs of any information coming to the attention of the Issuer of the CDs or any affiliate thereof. Additional information with respect to the Reference Securities is set forth in Annex A. Adjustments to Coupon Valuation Dates If a Coupon Valuation Date with respect to any Reference Security is not a Scheduled Trading Day, then the Coupon Valuation Date for such Reference Security will be the next day that is a Scheduled Trading Day. If a Market Disruption Event with respect to any Reference Security exists on a Coupon Valuation Date, then that Coupon Valuation Date for such Reference Security will be the next Scheduled Trading Day on which a Market Disruption Event does not exist with respect to such Reference Security. If a Market Disruption Event with respect to a Reference Security exists on five consecutive Scheduled Trading Days, then that fifth Scheduled Trading Day will be the Coupon Valuation Date with respect to such Reference Security, and the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Price on that date in good faith and in its sole discretion.. For the avoidance of doubt, if no Market Disruption Event exists with respect to a Reference Security in the Basket, the determination of such Reference Security s value will be made on the originally scheduled Observation Date, irrespective of the existence of a Market Disruption Event with respect to one or more of the other Reference Securities. If a Coupon Valuation Date with respect to a Reference Security is postponed, then the related Coupon Payment Date and, if the Coupon Payment Date coincides with the Maturity Date, the Maturity Date will also be postponed until the third business day following the postponed Coupon Valuation Date and no interest will be payable in respect of such postponement. Maturity Redemption Amount and Coupon Payment Amount At maturity, the amount depositors will receive for each CD will be equal to the Maturity Redemption Amount, which will equal A) the Principal Amount of the CD plus B) any additional Coupon Payment Amount due on the Maturity Date, as described in the Summary of Terms above. On each Coupon Payment Date, the Coupon Rate will be variable and will equal the greater of A) the arithmetic average of the Reference Security Returns for the Reference Securities, and B) zero. For each Reference Security and with respect to any Coupon Valuation Date, will be: If the Valuation Share Price is greater than or equal to the Initial Share Price, an amount equal to the Auto Cap Rate; or If the Valuation Share Price is less than the Initial Share Price, an amount equal to the greater of A) the Reference Security Performance, which, for each Reference Security as of each Coupon Valuation Date, is the quotient of 1) the Valuation Share Price minus the Initial Share Price, divided by 2) the Initial Share Price, and B) the Floor Rate. The payment of the Coupon Payment Amount, if any, will be made on scheduled Coupon Payment Dates, as set forth in the Summary of Terms Coupon Valuation Dates and Coupon Payment Dates above. The Maturity Redemption Amount and the Coupon Payment Amount, if any, will not include dividends paid on the Reference Securities. Apart from the Coupon Payment Amount, if any, no interest will be paid, either for periods prior to the Settlement Date, during the term of the CDs or at or after maturity. For more information, see Summary of Terms above and Sensitivity Analysis below. 11

Market Disruption Events If a Market Disruption Event occurs on a Coupon Valuation Date with respect to a Reference Security, then that Coupon Valuation Date with respect to such Reference Security shall be postponed as described in Adjustments to Coupon Valuation Dates above. Merger Event, Tender Offer, Delisting, Nationalization, Insolvency or Potential Adjustment Event If a Merger Event, Tender Offer, Delisting, Nationalization, Insolvency, or declaration of a Potential Adjustment Event occurs with respect to a Reference Security or Reference Issuer, the Calculation Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, adjust the terms of the CDs to reflect the economic impact of such event on the value of the CDs, though is not required to follow any specific course of action to effect this result. In the event of a Delisting, Nationalization, Insolvency or similar Potential Adjustment Event such adjustments to the terms of the CDs, the likelihood of a depositor receiving a Coupon Payment Amount in the year of the event and for the remainder of the CD term may be materially limited. Early Redemptions The Issuer will permit early Redemption of the CDs on the Early Redemption Dates as described in the Summary of Terms Early Redemption at Current Market Value section above. Redemption upon the Death of a Depositor Please refer to the section herein entitled Summary of Terms Early Redemption Upon the Death of a Depositor. Ratings The CDs will not be rated by any rating agency. The Calculation Agent The Issuer is the Calculation Agent with regard to the CDs and is solely responsible for the determination and calculation of the Maturity Redemption Amount (including the components thereof), the Coupon Payment Amounts, if any, payable on corresponding Coupon Payment Dates, and any other determinations and calculations with respect to any distributions of cash in connection with the CDs, as well as for determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred and for making certain other determinations with regard to a Reference Security. All determinations and calculations made by the Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Issuer and depositors of the CDs, absent manifest error and provided that the Calculation Agent shall be required to act in good faith in making any determination or calculation. The Calculation Agent may have economic interests adverse to those of the depositors of the CDs, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments that the Calculation Agent must make in determining the Closing Prices, the Initial Share Prices, the Maturity Redemption Amount and any Coupon Payment Amount payable on corresponding Coupon Payment Dates, in determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred, and in making certain other determinations with regard to any Reference Security. The Calculation Agent is obligated to carry out its duties and functions in good faith and using its reasonable judgment. The Calculation Agent will not be liable for any loss, liability, cost, claim, action, demand or expense (including, without limitation, all costs, charges and expenses paid or incurred in disputing or defending any of the foregoing) arising out of or in relation to or in connection with its appointment or the exercise of its functions, except such as may result from its own willful default or gross negligence or that of its officers or agents. Nothing shall prevent the Calculation Agent or its affiliates from dealing in the CDs or from entering into any related transactions, including any swap or hedging transactions, with any depositor of CDs. The Calculation Agent may resign at any time; however, resignation will not take effect until a successor Calculation Agent has been appointed. 12

Illustrative Examples The following examples are provided for illustration purposes only and are hypothetical; they do not purport to be representative of every possible scenario concerning increases or decreases in the return of the CDs. We cannot predict the Closing Prices of the Reference Securities on the Coupon Valuation Dates. The assumptions we have made in connection with the illustrations set forth below may not reflect actual events, and the hypothetical initial share prices of the Reference Securities used in the illustrations below are not the actual Initial Share Prices of the Reference Securities. You should not take these examples as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the Reference Securities or the CDs. The following examples indicate how changes in the performance of the Reference Securities over the term of the CDs will affect the Coupon Payment Amount payable on the CDs for any Coupon Payment Date. These examples assume the Auto Cap Rate is [9%], a Floor Rate of -30% and the initial investment is $10,000. Example 1: The securities generally rise over the term of the CDs.

On each Coupon Payment Date, therefore, the CDs will pay a Coupon Payment Amount equal to the Principal Amount multiplied by the Coupon Rate for that Coupon Payment Date. Furthermore, for certain of the Reference Securities and with respect to certain Coupon Payment Dates, the Reference Security Return as of such Coupon Payment Dates is greater than the Auto Cap Rate. The Reference Security Return for those Reference Securities that will contribute to the calculation of the Coupon Rate with respect to those Coupon Payment Dates is therefore limited by the Auto Cap Rate. 13

In this example, on any Coupon Valuation Date, the Valuation Share Price of some of the Reference Securities has declined with respect to the Initial Share Price for that Reference Security, while the Valuation Share Price of other Reference Securities has increased. On the Coupon Payment Date in years one and two the Coupon Rate is zero (the average of the Reference Security Returns for the Reference Securities is negative), while in years three, four, five and six the Coupon Rate is positive. Therefore, in years one and two the CDs will pay a Coupon Payment Amount equal to zero, whereas in years three, four, five and six, the CDs will pay a Coupon Payment Amount equal to the Principal Amount multiplied by the Coupon Rate as of each Coupon Payment Date. 14

In this example, on any Coupon Valuation Date, the average of the Reference Security Returns on each Coupon Payment Date is negative.

In this example, one of the Reference Securities is delisted in Year 2. In this case, the Calculation Agent may deem a zero value for such Reference Security during Year 2 and for the remainder of the CD terms, in which case the Reference Security Return of such Reference Security would be the Floor Rate of -30.00% for each of these years. If such a determination is made the by Calculation Agent, the likelihood of a depositor receiving a Coupon Payment Amount for such years following any such delisting may be materially limited, despite the generally positive performance of the remaining Reference Securities. However, such treatment of the Reference Security in the event of a delisting represents only one such potential treatment of a delisting by the Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent, in its reasonable discretion, may also use other methodologies to adjust the terms of the CDs to reflect the economic impact of such delisting on the value of the CDs and is not required to follow any specific course of action to effect this result. 16
