Each Tranche (as defined herein) of Notes will be issued on the terms set out herein under "Terms and Conditions of the Notes" (the "Conditions") as completed by a document specific to such Tranche called final terms (the "Final Terms") or amended and/or supplemented in a separate prospectus specific to such Tranche (the "Drawdown Prospectus") as described under "Final Terms and Drawdown Prospectuses" below. In the case of a Tranche of Notes which is the subject of a Drawdown Prospectus, each reference in this Base Prospectus to information being specified or identified in the relevant Final Terms shall be read and construed as a reference to such information being specified or identified in the relevant Drawdown Prospectus unless the context requires otherwise. This Base Prospectus must be read and construed together with any amendments or supplements hereto and with any information incorporated by reference herein and, in relation to any Tranche of Notes which is the subject of Final Terms, must be read and construed together with the relevant Final Terms.

The distribution of this Base Prospectus and any Final Terms and the offering, sale and delivery of the Notes in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. Persons into whose possession this Base Prospectus or any Final Terms comes are required by the Issuer and the Dealers to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions. For a description of certain restrictions on offers, sales and deliveries of Notes and on the distribution of this Base Prospectus or any Final Terms and other offering material relating to the Notes, see "Subscription and Sale". In particular, Notes have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) (the "Securities Act") and - 2-

are subject to U.S. tax law requirements. Subject to certain exceptions, Notes may not be offered, sold or delivered within the United States or to U.S. persons. Neither this Base Prospectus nor any Final Terms constitutes an offer or an invitation to subscribe for or purchase any Notes and should not be considered as a recommendation by the Issuer, the Dealers or any of them that any recipient of this Base Prospectus or any Final Terms should subscribe for or purchase any Notes. Each recipient of this Base Prospectus or any Final Terms shall be taken to have made its own investigation and appraisal of the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Issuer. The maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding at any one time under the Programme will not exceed EUR 500,000,000 (and for this purpose, any Notes denominated in another currency shall be translated into euro at the date of the agreement to issue such Notes (calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Dealer Agreement)). The maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes which may be outstanding at any one time under the Programme may be increased from time to time, subject to compliance with the relevant provisions of the Dealer Agreement as defined under "Subscription and Sale". Notes may be rated or unrated. Where a tranche of Notes is rated, the applicable rating(s) will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Whether or not each credit rating applied for in relation to a relevant tranche of Notes will be issued by a credit rating agency established in the European Union and registered under the CRA Regulation will be disclosed in the relevant Final Terms. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold Notes and may be subject to suspension, change or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. In this Base Prospectus, unless otherwise specified, references to a "Member State" are references to a Member State of the European Economic Area and references to "EUR" or "euro" are to the single currency introduced at the start of the third stage of European Economic and Monetary Union pursuant to the Treaty establishing the European Community, as amended. Certain figures included in this Base Prospectus have been subject to rounding adjustments; accordingly, figures shown for the same category presented in different tables may vary slightly and figures shown as totals in certain tables may not be an arithmetic aggregation of the figures which precede them. In connection with the issue of any Tranche of Notes, the Dealer or Dealers (if any) named as the Stabilising Manager(s) (or persons acting on behalf of any Stabilising Manager(s)) in the applicable Final Terms may over allot Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilising Manager(s) (or persons acting on behalf of a Stabilising Manager) will undertake stabilisation action. Any stabilisation action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the offer of the relevant Tranche of Notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the relevant Tranche of Notes and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the relevant Tranche of Notes. Any stabilisation action or over-allotment must be conducted by the relevant Stabilising Manager(s) (or person(s) acting on behalf of any Stabilising Manager(s)) in accordance with all applicable laws and rules. ISSUER'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The auditors' reports and financial statements set out under "Financial Statements and Auditors' Reports" below have been prepared in accordance with Andorran accounting principles and not in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). For a summary of principal differences between Andorran accounting principles and IFRS, please see the discussion "Summary of The Principal Differences Between IFRS And Andorran Accounting Principles" below. Investors should note that there may be material differences in the financial information had Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 been applied to the historical financial information set out under "Financial Statements and Auditors' Reports" below. - 3-

Each Series may comprise one or more Tranches issued on different issue dates.

The Notes of each Tranche will all be subject to identical terms in all respects save that a Tranche may comprise Notes of different denominations. Notes may only be issued in bearer form. Each Tranche of Notes will initially be in the form of either a Temporary Global Note or a Permanent Global Note, in each case as specified in the relevant Final Terms.

Each Temporary Global Note will be exchangeable for a Permanent Global Note or, if so specified in the relevant Final Terms, for Definitive Notes. If the TEFRA D Rules are specified in the relevant Final Terms as applicable, certification as to non- U.S. beneficial ownership will be a condition precedent to any exchange of an interest in a Temporary Global Note or receipt of any payment of interest in respect of a Temporary Global Note. Each Permanent Global Note will be exchangeable for Definitive Notes in accordance with its terms. Definitive Notes will, if interest-bearing, have Coupons attached and, if appropriate, a Talon for further Coupons. Currencies: Status of the Notes: Issue Price: Maturities: Notes may be denominated in euro or in any other currency or currencies, subject to compliance with all applicable legal and/or regulatory and/or central bank requirements. Payments in respect of Notes may, subject to such compliance, be made in and/or linked to, any currency or currencies other than the currency in which such Notes are denominated. Notes will be issued on an unsubordinated basis. Notes may be issued at any price and either on a fully or partly paid basis, as specified in the relevant Final Terms.

Redemption: Notes may be redeemable at par. - 5-

Optional Redemption: Tax Redemption: Interest: Denominations: Negative Pledge: Cross Default: Taxation: Governing Law: Enforcement of Notes in Global Form: Selling Restrictions: Use of Proceeds Notes may be redeemed before their stated maturity at the option of the Issuer (either in whole or in part) and/or the Noteholders to the extent (if at all) specified in the relevant Final Terms. Except as described in "Optional Redemption" above, early redemption will only be permitted for tax reasons as described in Condition 9(b) (Redemption and Purchase - Redemption for tax reasons). Notes may be interest-bearing or non-interest bearing. Interest (if any) may accrue at a fixed rate or a floating rate and the method of calculating interest may vary between the issue date and the maturity date of the relevant Series. Notes will be issued in such denominations as may be specified in the relevant Final Terms, subject to compliance with all applicable legal and/or regulatory and/or central bank requirements, and in any event in the minimum denomination of EUR 100,000 or its equivalent in the relevant currency per Note. The Notes will have the benefit of a negative pledge as described in Condition 5 (Negative Pledge). The Notes will have the benefit of a cross default as described in Condition 12 (Events of Default). All payments in respect of Notes will be made free and clear of withholding taxes of the Principality of Andorra, unless the withholding is required by law. In that event, the Issuer will (subject as provided in Condition 11 (Taxation)) pay such additional amounts as will result in the Noteholders receiving such amounts as they would have received in respect of such Notes had no such withholding been required. English law, except for Condition 4 (Status of the Notes) which is governed by the laws of Andorra. In the case of Global Notes, persons shown in the records of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system as being entitled to an interest in the relevant Global Note will acquire rights directly against the Issuer governed by a Deed of Covenant dated 9 September 2013, a copy of which will be available for inspection at the specified office of the Fiscal Agent. For a description of certain restrictions on offers, sales and deliveries of Notes and on the distribution of offering material in the United States of America and the United Kingdom, see "Subscription and Sale" below. The net proceeds of the issue of the Notes will be applied by the Issuer towards its general financing requirements. - 6-

RISK FACTORS The following is a description of principal risk factors that the Issuer believes (a) may affect its ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes issued to investors and (b) are material for the purpose of assessing the market risk associated with the Notes. Most of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and the Issuer is not in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring. The Issuer believes that the factors described below represent the principal risks inherent in investing in Notes issued under the Programme, but the inability of the Issuer to pay any amounts due on or in connection with any Notes or the Deed of Covenant may occur for other reasons and the Issuer does not represent that the statements below regarding the risks of holding any Notes are exhaustive. Prospective investors should read the entire Base Prospectus and reach their own view prior to making any investment decision. In addition, prospective investors should determine whether an investment in the Notes is appropriate in their particular circumstances and to arrive at their own evaluations of the investment. Words and expressions defined in the "Terms and Conditions of the Notes" below or elsewhere in this Base Prospectus have the same meanings in this section. Risks Relating to the Issuer Risks Relating to the Business Activities of the Issuer As a result of its business activities, the Issuer is exposed to a variety of risks; the principal risks are reputational risk, operational risk, credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. Failure to control these risks could result in material adverse effects on the Issuer's financial performance and reputation. Reputational Risk As a private bank, the Issuer relies to a significant degree on the quality of its reputation in order to attract and retain customers. Although the Issuer has implemented policies and procedures designed to protect the Issuer's brand, there can be no assurances that the Issuer will be able to safeguard its reputation as successfully in the future as it has in the past, or that for factors beyond the Issuer's control its brand may become damaged. If the Issuer is unable to manage the risks related to its reputation, this could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer. Operational Risk The Issuer's businesses are dependent on the ability to process a very large number of transactions efficiently and accurately. Operational risk and losses can result from fraud, errors by employees, failure to document transactions properly or to obtain proper internal authorisation, failure to comply with regulatory requirements and conduct of business rules, equipment failures, natural disasters or the failure of external systems, for example, those of the Issuer's suppliers or counterparties. Although the Issuer has implemented risk controls and loss mitigation actions, and substantial resources are devoted to developing efficient procedures and to staff training, there can be no assurances that the Issuer will be able to implement procedures that are fully effective in controlling each of these operational risks. Notwithstanding anything in this risk factor, this risk factor should not be taken as implying that the Issuer will be unable to comply with its obligations as a company with securities admitted to the Official List. Credit Risk Risks arising from changes in credit quality and the recoverability of loans and amounts due from counterparties are inherent in a wide range of the Issuer's businesses. Adverse changes in the credit quality of the Issuer's borrowers and counterparties or a general deterioration in the Andorran, or global economic conditions, or arising from systematic risks in the financial systems, could affect the recoverability and value of its assets and require an increase in the Issuer's provision for bad and doubtful debts and other provisions. Market Risk The most significant market risks the Issuer faces are interest rate, foreign exchange and bond and equity price risks. Changes in interest rate levels, yield curves and spreads may affect the interest rate margin realised between lending and borrowing costs. Changes in currency rates affect the value of assets and - 7-

liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and may affect income from foreign exchange dealing. The performance of financial markets may cause changes in the value of the Issuer's investment and trading portfolios. The Issuer has implemented risk management methods to mitigate and control these and other market risks to which the Issuer is exposed and exposures are regularly measured and monitored. However, there can be no assurances that the Issuer will accurately predict changes in economic or market conditions and anticipate the effects that such changes could have on the Issuer's financial performance and business operations. Liquidity Risk Following a severe recession in mid-2009, the world economy began a period of moderate recovery in 2010. That recovery remains fragile with widespread volatility in investor confidence. Continued or worsening disruption and volatility in the global financial markets could have a material adverse effect on the Issuer's ability to access capital and liquidity on financial terms acceptable to it, if at all. At the end of 2011, the aggregate liquidity ratio of Andorran banks stood at 66.58 per cent., while the Issuer's liquidity ratio stood at 90.97 per cent.; the highest in the Andorran financial system. Despite the fact that the lack of confidence in international financial markets has restricted the interbank liquidity market, many Andorran banking entities have managed to maintain their liquidity ratios at similar levels to previous years (Source: Association of Andorran Banks: Andorra and its Financial System 2011). Management of the Issuer believes that the maturity structure of the Group's assets and liabilities helps reduce the liquidity risk inherent in its banking operations and therefore the Issuer's reliance on raising funds in the capital markets. Nonetheless, liquidity risk remains inherent in the Issuer's banking activities and as such a lack of access to capital and liquidity in the future could have an adverse effect on the Issuer. The inability of a bank, including the Issuer, to anticipate and provide for unforeseen decreases or changes in funding sources could have an adverse effect on such bank's ability to meet its obligations when they fall due. Impact of Regulatory Changes The Issuer is subject to financial services laws, regulations, administrative actions and policies in each location that the Issuer operates. Changes in supervision and regulation, in particular in Andorra, could materially affect the Issuer's business, the products and services offered or the value of its assets. Although the Issuer works closely with its regulators and continually monitors the situation, future changes in regulation, fiscal or other policies can be unpredictable and are beyond the control of the Issuer. Financial Information The Issuer's consolidated financial statements have been prepared using Andorran accounting principles. There are certain significant differences between IFRS and Andorran accounting principles (see "Summary of The Principal Differences Between IFRS And Andorran Accounting Principles"). The effects of such differences on the Issuer's financial results or position for the data incorporated in or attached to this Base Prospectus have not been quantified. Moreover, in accordance with Andorran accounting principles, the Issuer is not required to prepare, and accordingly does not prepare, interim financial information. There is therefore no publicly available financial information in respect of the Issuer for any period after 31 December 2012, which means that the financial information available for examination by investors may not accurately reflect the financial position of the Issuer at the time of an investor's decision to invest in the Notes. Risks Relating To Andorra Economic Activity in Andorra The Issuer's business activities are dependent on the level of banking, finance and financial services required by its customers. In particular, levels of borrowing are heavily dependent on customer confidence, employment trends, the state of the economy and market interest rates at the time. As the Issuer currently conducts the majority of its business in Andorra, its performance is influenced by the level and cyclical nature of business activity in Andorra. The Andorran economy is in turn affected by both domestic and international economic and political events. As a result of the risk to the Andorran government's budgetary position which emanate from the uncertain economic environment in Europe, the - 8-

credit ratings of the Principality of Andorra were placed on negative outlook. Continued or worsening disruption and volatility in the global financial markets and the European financial markets could have a material adverse effect on the sovereign debt rating of the Principality of Andorra and in turn on both the credit rating of the Issuer and on its ability to access capital and liquidity. There can be no assurance that a weakening in the Andorran economy will not have a material effect on the Issuer's future results. Absence of Systemic Support Although the euro is used in Andorra, the authorities in that country do not have the ability to create local currency. Furthermore, the Andorran government has limited financial resources compared to the size of the financial institutions that operate there. In the event of a macroeconomic crisis, the government of Andorra would not be able to rely on currency controls as a means to support the local economy or provide financial support to the banking sector. Enforceability of English Court Judgments in Andorra Since the Issuer is an Andorran entity, any judgments obtained in the English courts will need to be enforced in Andorra. Accordingly, a judgment obtained in an English court may not be enforceable in Andorra due to a lack of reciprocity between Andorra and England (in the exequatur procedure). For this reason, investors should be aware that any judgment obtained in an English court against the Issuer may not be enforced in Andorra by an Andorran court. Risks Relating to the Notes There is no active trading market for the Notes Notes issued under the Programme will be new securities which may not be widely distributed and for which there is currently no active trading market (unless in the case of any particular Tranche, such Tranche is to be consolidated with and form a single series with a Tranche of Notes which is already issued). If the Notes are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount to their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, general economic conditions and the financial condition of the Issuer. Although applications have been made for the Notes issued under the Programme to be admitted to listing on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the Regulated Market of the London Stock Exchange, there is no assurance that such applications will be accepted, that any particular Tranche of Notes will be so admitted or that an active trading market will develop. Accordingly, there is no assurance as to the development or liquidity of any trading market for any particular Tranche of Notes. The Notes may be redeemed prior to maturity Unless in the case of any particular Tranche of Notes the relevant Final Terms specifies otherwise, in the event that the Issuer would be obliged to increase the amounts payable in respect of any Notes due to any withholding or deduction for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of the Principality of Andorra or any political subdivision thereof or any authority therein or thereof having power to tax, the Issuer may redeem all outstanding Notes in accordance with the Conditions. In addition, if in the case of any particular Tranche of Notes the relevant Final Terms specifies that the Notes are redeemable at the Issuer's option in certain other circumstances the Issuer may choose to redeem the Notes at times when prevailing interest rates may be relatively low. In such circumstances an investor may not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as that of the relevant Notes. Because the Global Notes are held by or on behalf of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, investors will have to rely on their procedures for transfer, payment and communication with the Issuer Notes issued under the Programme may be represented by one or more Global Notes. Such Global Notes will be deposited with a common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. Except in the circumstances described in the relevant Global Note, investors will not be entitled to receive definitive Notes. Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will maintain records of the beneficial interests in the - 9-

Global Notes. While the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes, investors will be able to trade their beneficial interests only through Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. While the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes the Issuer will discharge its payment obligations under the Notes by making payments to the common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg for distribution to their account holders. A holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Note must rely on the procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to receive payments under the relevant Notes. The Issuer has no responsibility or liability for the records relating to, or payments made in respect of, beneficial interests in the Global Notes. Holders of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not have a direct right to vote in respect of the relevant Notes. Instead, such holders will be permitted to act only to the extent that they are enabled by Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg to appoint appropriate proxies. Similarly, holders of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not have a direct right under the Global Notes to take enforcement action against the Issuer in the event of a default under the relevant Notes but will have to rely upon their rights under the Deed of Covenant. Payments on the Notes may be subject to U.S. withholding tax under FATCA In certain circumstances payments made on or with respect to the Notes after 31 December 2016 may be subject to U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (commonly referred to as FATCA ). This withholding does not apply to payments on Notes that are issued prior to 1 July 2014 (or, if later, the date that is six months after the date on which the final regulations that define "foreign passthru payments" are published) unless the Notes are "materially modified" after that date or are characterised as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Whilst the Notes are in global form and held within Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg (together, the "ICSDs"), in all but the most remote circumstances, it is not expected that FATCA will affect the amount of any payment received by the ICSDs (see "Taxation - U.S. Withholding Tax under FATCA"). However, FATCA may affect payments made to custodians or intermediaries in the subsequent payment chain leading to the ultimate investor if any such custodian or intermediary generally is unable to receive payments free of FATCA withholding. It also may affect payment to any ultimate investor that is a financial institution that is not entitled to receive payments free of withholding under FATCA, or an ultimate investor that fails to provide its broker (or other custodian or intermediary from which it receives payment) with any information, forms, other documentation or consents that may be necessary for the payments to be made free of FATCA withholding. Investors should choose the custodians or intermediaries with care (to ensure each is compliant with FATCA or other laws or agreements related to FATCA), and provide each custodian or intermediary with any information, forms, other documentation or consents that may be necessary for such custodian or intermediary to make a payment free of FATCA withholding. Investors should consult their own tax adviser to obtain a more detailed explanation of FATCA and how FATCA may affect them. The Issuer's obligations under the Notes are discharged once they have paid the common depositary or common safekeeper for the ICSDs (as bearer of the Notes) and the Issuer therefore has no responsibility for any amount thereafter transmitted through hands of the ICSDs and custodians or intermediaries. Integral multiples of less than 100,000 In relation to any issue of Notes which have a denomination consisting of the minimum Specified Denomination of 100,000 plus a higher integral multiple of another smaller amount, it is possible that the Notes may be traded in amounts in excess of 100,000 (or its equivalent) that are not integral multiples of 100,000 (or its equivalent). In such a case a Noteholder who, as a result of trading such amounts, holds a principal amount of less than the minimum Specified Denomination will not receive a definitive Note in respect of such holding (should definitive Notes be printed) and would need to purchase a principal amount of Notes such that it holds an amount equal to one or more Specified Denominations. Risks related to the structure of a particular issue of Notes A wide range of Notes may be issued under the Programme. A number of these Notes may have features which contain particular risks for potential investors. Set out below is a description of the most common such features: - 10-

Notes subject to optional redemption by the Issuer An optional redemption feature of Notes is likely to limit their market value. During any period when the Issuer may elect to redeem Notes, the market value of those Notes generally will not rise substantially above the price at which they can be redeemed. This also may be true prior to any redemption period. The Issuer may be expected to redeem Notes when their cost of borrowing is lower than the interest rate on the Notes. At those times, an investor generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the Notes being redeemed and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate. Potential investors should consider reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time. Partly-paid Notes The Issuer may issue Notes where the issue price is payable in more than one instalment. Failure to pay any subsequent instalment could result in an investor losing all of their investment. Fixed/floating rate Notes Fixed/floating rate Notes may bear interest at a rate that may convert from a fixed rate to a floating rate, or from a floating rate to a fixed rate. Where the relevant Issuer has the right to effect such a conversion, this will affect the secondary market and the market value of the Notes since the Issuer may be expected to convert the rate when it is likely to produce a lower overall cost of borrowing. If the relevant Issuer converts from a fixed rate to a floating rate in such circumstances, the spread on the fixed/floating rate Notes may be less favourable than then prevailing spreads on comparable floating rate Notes tied to the same reference rate. In addition, the new floating rate at any time may be lower than the rates on other Notes. If the relevant Issuer converts from a floating rate to a fixed rate in such circumstances, the fixed rate may be lower than then prevailing rates on its Notes. Notes issued at a substantial discount or premium The market values of securities issued at a substantial discount or premium from their principal amount tend to fluctuate more in relation to general changes in interest rates than do prices for conventional interest-bearing securities. Generally, the longer the remaining term of the securities, the greater the price volatility as compared to conventional interest-bearing securities with comparable maturities. - 11-

SUMMARY OF THE PRINCIPAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN IFRS AND ANDORRAN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES The Issuer's consolidated financial statements have been prepared using Andorran Accounting Principles. There are certain significant differences between International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and Andorran Accounting Principles. Significant differences relevant to the Issuer's financial statements are discussed below. The effects of such differences on the Issuer's financial results or position for the data incorporated in or attached to this Base Prospectus have not been quantified. Investors should consult their own professional advisors for an understanding of the differences between IFRS and Andorran Accounting Principles and how these differences might affect the financial information herein. Investors should not consider this summary to be exhaustive. Investors must examine the Issuer and its financial information on their own. No attempt has been made to identify all classification, disclosure and presentation differences between Andorran Accounting Principles and IFRS that would affect the manner in which transactions and events are presented in the financial statements or notes thereto. No attempt has been made to identify future differences between IFRS and Andorran Accounting Principles as the result of the prescribed changes in accounting standards. Regulatory bodies that promulgate IFRS and Andorran Accounting principles have significant projects ongoing that could affect future comparisons such as this one. Finally, no attempt has been made to identify future differences between IFRS and Andorran Accounting Principles that may affect the Issuer's financial statements as a result of transactions or events that may occur in the future. Due from financial intermediaries allowance for credit losses Under Andorran regulations, it is necessary to make a generic provision for the sum of 0.5 per cent. of the bank deposits with a maturity of longer than one working day in order to provide coverage for those losses that may arise in the future in risks that cannot be identified individually as being problematic at this time. This type of provision is not possible under IFRS since they require that these are specifically assigned to each one of the risks concerned. Commissions related to Loans and Credits portfolio Under Andorran regulations, the commissions cited are recognised in the profit and loss account at the time of the granting of the loans, while under IFRS these commissions are treated as a flow to be passed on in the profit and loss account throughout the life of the operation, as one further element to be taken into account in setting the effective rate for the operation. Loans and credits portfolio allowance for credit losses Under Andorran regulations, all entities must establish rules for the provision of the insolvency risk associated with the credit investment portfolio. The cited provisions will be undertaken in both a generic manner, on the basis of certain percentages laid down according to the nature of the risk covered. In relation to the cited provisions, the IFRS sets out the following: - The deterioration of a financial asset takes place when there is objective evidence that the entirety of the loan will not be covered due to facts occurring that have an effect on forecasted future flows. The losses expected as the result of future losses are not recognised, regardless of their likelihood. - The deterioration of an asset (accounted at its amortisable cost) is calculated as the difference between the book value of the asset less the updating of all future forecast cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate of the loan. The forecast of the flows will be made on a hypothetical basis and based on reasonable and justified forecasts. - An analysis of the deterioration of the loans portfolio will be undertaken making a distinction between loans that are significant and loans that are not. This distinction will be applied when determining whether the analysis will be made individually or in a collective manner. In the loans portfolio in which there is no objective evidence of deterioration, this will be grouped together according to the risks that have the same characteristics, and an analysis by homogenous groups will be made. A decision will be made as to the deterioration for these similar risk portfolios on the basis of behavioural statistics obtained from the historical evidence of the institution, or other models. - 13-

Investment Securities Investments in group companies For the purposes of consolidation, under Andorran regulations, the equity procedure will be applied when the entity to be consolidated is an associated entity, when it belongs to a financial grouping but it has a differentiated form of activity, and when it is a multi-group company with differentiated activity and so, accordingly, is not consolidated by proportional integration. According to the IFRS, an entity will have to be included in the consolidation perimeter depending on whether the group has control over it or not. Therefore, the differentiated activity of a participant will not be a factor to be taken into account in determining the consolidation method. Derivatives According to the IFRS, it is necessary to recognise all positions in derivatives in the balance sheet of the entity at their reasonable value. Likewise, the cited value will have to be kept updated, attributing the differences of value in the profit and loss account unless there is a question of coverage operations. In the latter case, they can also have an effect on the capital. The main differences that appear with respect to Andorran regulations are determined by the fact that all positions will continue being valued at their reasonable value, and that both the capital gains and the capital losses that could be produced will be recognised at all times. General Risk Allowance Andorran regulations allow for the establishment of provisions used for the general risks of the banking and financial activity, without there having been an identified degree of deterioration in the value of the assets. Under IFRS, the establishment of provisions of a generic nature is not allowed. Ordinary Investment Portfolio Under IFRS, the ordinary investment portfolio is recorded at market value, while under Andorran Accounting Principles, the ordinary investment portfolio is recorded at the lower of market value or adjusted purchase price. - 14-

FINAL TERMS AND DRAWDOWN PROSPECTUSES In this section the expression "necessary information" means, in relation to any Tranche of Notes, the information necessary to enable investors to make an informed assessment of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses and prospects of the Issuer and of the rights attaching to the Notes. In relation to the different types of Notes which may be issued under the Programme the Issuer have endeavoured to include in this Base Prospectus all of the necessary information except for information relating to the Notes which is not known at the date of this Base Prospectus and which can only be determined at the time of an individual issue of a Tranche of Notes. Any information relating to the Notes which is not included in this Base Prospectus and which is required in order to complete the necessary information in relation to a Tranche of Notes will be contained either in the relevant Final Terms or in a Drawdown Prospectus. Such information will be contained in the relevant Final Terms unless any of such information constitutes a significant new factor relating to the information contained in this Base Prospectus in which case such information, together with all of the other necessary information in relation to the relevant series of Notes, may be contained in a Drawdown Prospectus. For a Tranche of Notes which is the subject of Final Terms, those Final Terms will, for the purposes of that Tranche only, supplement this Base Prospectus and must be read in conjunction with this Base Prospectus. The terms and conditions applicable to any particular Tranche of Notes which is the subject of Final Terms are the Conditions as completed to the extent described in the relevant Final Terms. Each Drawdown Prospectus will be constituted by a single document containing the necessary information relating to the Issuer and the relevant Notes. The terms and conditions applicable to any particular Tranche of Notes which is the subject of a Drawdown Prospectus will be the Conditions as supplemented, amended and/or replaced to the extent described in the relevant Drawdown Prospectus. In the case of a Tranche of Notes which is the subject of a Drawdown Prospectus, each reference in this Base Prospectus to information being specified or identified in the relevant Final Terms shall be read and construed as a reference to such information being specified or identified in the relevant Drawdown Prospectus unless the context requires otherwise. - 15-
