Annexe 14 May 2015 5

4. PLEDGOR S REPRESENTATIONS AND UNDERTAKINGS 4.1 The Pledgor hereby represents to the Central Bank at the entry into this Agreement that: 4.1.1 it has the necessary power and capacity to enable it to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement; 4.1.2 this Agreement constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligations; 4.1.3 all necessary authorisations to enable it to enter into this Agreement have been obtained and are, and will remain, in full force and effect. 4.2 At each sending of a Pledge Notice, the Pledgor represents and warrants to the Central Bank that: 4.2.1 the Credit Claim identified in the Pledge Notice complies with the provisions in Annex 8 of the General Terms and Conditions (as well as any additional conditions (if any) established by the Central Bank), ECB Guideline ECB/2014/60 and any temporary measure adopted in this field by the European Central Bank; 4.2.2 it has the unrestricted capacity to dispose of the Credit Claim identified in the Pledge Notice; 4.2.3 the Credit Claim is free from any encumbrance or security interests (other than this Pledge), is not subject to any option, undertaking to sell or transfer, delegation, attachment or any other measure or condition which would affect the rights of the Central Bank hereunder or which could lead to a restriction on the ability of the Central Bank to hold a valid, enforceable and effective pledge over the Pledged Claim or to realise the Pledge in accordance with the terms hereof; and 4.2.4 all steps required for the perfection of the Pledge pursuant to Clause 2 hereof have been taken and the Pledge constitutes an effective first priority security interest in the form of a "gage", enforceable in accordance with its terms under all applicable laws. 4.3 The Pledgor shall not sell or otherwise dispose of all or any of its rights, title and interest in the Pledged Claims (including by way of sub-participation (disclosed or undisclosed), syndication or otherwise) and shall not create, grant or permit to exist (a) any encumbrance or security interest (including of lower rank) over or (b) any 6 Annexe 14 May 2015

ENFORCEMENT OF PLEDGE 5.1 Upon the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, the Central Bank is entitled, without any requirement of prior notice, to realise the Pledges in the most favourable manner provided for by applicable law (including, without limitation, the law of 5 August 2005 on financial collateral arrangements, as amended). In particular, but without being limited thereto, the Central Bank may: 5.1.1 appropriate the Pledged Claim or make it appropriated by a third party at their fair market value which is determined before or after their appropriation; this fair value is determined by the Central Bank or, upon the choice of the Central Bank, by an external expert appointed by it (which may be any other central bank of the Eurosystem) applying market standard methods of valuation; 5.1.2 to sell or arrange for the sale of the Pledged Claim in a private sale at normal commercial conditions, in a public sale, or a sale through a stock exchange, in accordance with the modalities determined by the Central Bank; 5.1.3 to request payment of the amounts due under the Pledged Claim from the Debtor; or Annexe 14 May 2015 7

RELEASE 6.1 The Pledges shall be a continuing security and shall not be considered as satisfied or discharged or prejudiced by any intermediate payment, satisfaction or settlement of any part of the Secured Obligations and shall remain in full force and effect until express release thereof has been granted by the Central Bank. 6.2 To request the release of a Pledge over a Credit Claim, the Pledgor shall follow the procedure provided for in Annex 8. The Pledgor shall take any other steps that may be required to perfect the release in accordance with any applicable law. 6.3 The release of a Credit Claim from the Pledge shall not affect the existence of the Pledges for the other Pledged Claims, and such Pledges shall continue to exist in full force and effect with respect to such Pledged Claims. 7. EFFECTIVENESS OF COLLATERAL 7.1 The Pledges shall be cumulative, in addition to, and independent of every other security which the Central Bank may at any time hold as security for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law and shall not operate so as in any way to prejudice or affect or be prejudiced or affected by any security interest or other right or remedy which the Central Bank may now or at any time in the future have in respect of the Secured Obligations. 7.2 The Pledges shall not be prejudiced by any time or indulgence granted to any person, or any abstention or delay in perfecting or enforcing any security interest or rights or remedies that Central Bank may now or at any time in the future have from or against the Pledgor or any other person. 8 Annexe 14 May 2015

7.3 No failure on the part of the Central Bank to exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any of its rights under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other rights. 8. PARTIAL ENFORCEMENT The Central Bank shall have the right, to enforce the Pledges over all or part of the Pledged Claims in its most absolute discretion. No action, choice or absence of action in this respect, or partial enforcement, shall in any manner affect the Pledges created hereunder over the remaining Pledged Claims, for which the Pledges shall continue to remain in full and valid existence until enforcement, discharge or termination hereof, as the case may be. 9.

For the benefit of the Central Bank, the Counterparty hereby irrevocably submits for all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the City of Luxembourg.
