• Status of the Notes: The obligations of the Issuer under the Notes in respect of principal, interest and other amounts constitute direct, unconditional, unsecured and deeply subordinated obligations of the Issuer and rank and will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves and, so long as the Notes constitute (or would constitute but for any applicable limitation on the amount of such capital), fully or partly, Tier 1 Own Funds of the Issuer and/or the Group under the Applicable Supervisory Regulations, with any other Deeply Subordinated Obligations, including, to the extent that such other Deeply Subordinated Obligations constitute (or would constitute but for any applicable limitation on the amount of such capital) fully or partly, Tier 1 Own Funds of the Issuer and/or the Group under the Applicable Supervisory Regulations (and in particular as the result of the future implementation of the last paragraph of article 38(1) of IRRD under French law). The subordination provisions of the Notes are governed by Article L.228-97 of the French Code de commerce. Subject to applicable law, in the event of the voluntary or judicial liquidation (liquidation amiable or liquidation judiciaire) of the Issuer, bankruptcy proceedings or any other similar proceedings affecting the Issuer or if the Issuer is liquidated for any other reason, the rights of Noteholders to payment in respect of principal and interest under the Notes rank, or are expressed to rank: (i) so long as the Notes constitute (or would constitute but for any applicable limitation on the amount of such capital), fully or partly, Tier 1 Own Funds of the Issuer and/or the Group under the Applicable Supervisory Regulations, subordinated to the full payment of: (A) any Unsubordinated Obligations (including depositors and creditors whose claims arise under contracts entered into for the purposes of any liquidation), (B) to the extent permitted under the then Applicable Supervisory Regulations, and in particular as the result of the future implementation of the last paragraph of article 38(1) of IRRD under French law, any 1st Ranking Senior Subordinated Obligations, (C) any Senior Subordinated Obligations, (D) any Ordinarily Subordinated Obligations, (E) any titres participatifs issued by, and prêts participatifs granted to, the Issuer, (F) any Deeply Subordinated Obligations that would no longer constitute in full Tier 1 Own Funds of the Issuer and/or the Group under the Applicable Supervisory Regulations, to the extent required under the then Applicable Supervisory Regulations, and in particular as a result of the future implementation of the last paragraph of article 38(1) of IRRD under French law, and (G) any other obligations expressed to rank senior to Deeply Subordinated Obligations, in each case outstanding from time to time; (ii) pari passu (A) without any preference among themselves and (B) so long as the Notes constitute, fully or partly, Tier 1 Own Funds of the Issuer and/or the Group under the Applicable Supervisory Regulations, with any Deeply Subordinated Obligations outstanding from time to time; and (iii) in priority to any payments to holders of Equity Securities, or any other obligation expressed to rank junior to the Notes in each case outstanding from time to time. Should the Notes no longer be treated in full as Tier 1 Own Funds, their rank will, subject to certain conditions and in particular as required and/or permitted by, the Applicable Supervisory Regulations (including without limitation as the result of the future implementation of the last paragraph of article 38(1) of IRRD under French law), change, and the Notes will become either Senior Notes, 1st Ranking Senior Subordinated Obligations, Senior Subordinated Obligations or Ordinarily Subordinated Obligations.

(each, a “Mandatory Interest Cancellation Event”), provided however, that the relevant Interest Payment Date will not be a Mandatory Cancellation Interest Payment Date in relation to such interest payment (in whole or in part, as applicable), to the extent permitted by the Applicable Supervisory Regulations, if, cumulatively: the Mandatory Interest Cancellation Event is of the type described in paragraph A above only; the Relevant Supervisory Authority has exceptionally waived the cancellation of the interest payment; the payment of the interest would not further weaken the solvency position of the Issuer and/or the Group; and the Minimum Capital Requirement will be complied with immediately following such interest payment, if made; “Optional Cancellation Interest Payment Date” means an Interest Payment Date other than a Mandatory Cancellation Interest Payment Date

• Acknowledgement of Bail-In and Write-Down or Conversion Powers: Notwithstanding any other term of any other agreement, arrangement or understanding between the Issuer and the holders of any Note, by the acquisition of any Note, each Noteholder or Couponholder acknowledges, accepts, consents and agrees: (a) to be bound by the effect of the exercise of the Bail-in Power (as defined below) by the Relevant Resolution Authority (as defined below), which may include and result in any of the following, or some combination thereof: the reduction of all, or a portion, of the Amounts Due (as defined below), including on a permanent basis; the conversion in whole or in part, of the Amounts Due into shares, other securities or other obligations of the Issuer or another person (and the issue to the Noteholder of such shares, securities or obligations), including by means of an amendment, modification or variation of the terms of the Notes, in which case the Noteholder agrees to accept in lieu of its rights under such Notes any such shares, other securities or other obligations of the Issuer or another person; the cancellation of the Notes; the amendment or alteration of the term of the Notes or amendment of the amount of interest payable on the Notes, or the date on which the interest becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; any other tools and powers provided for in the IRRD, as implemented under French law; and/or any specific French tools and powers pertaining to the recovery and resolution of Regulated Entities.

• Discretionary Reinstatement: Following any reduction of the Prevailing Principal Amount, the Issuer may, to the extent permitted by the Applicable Supervisory Regulations at the relevant time and provided that the Condition 7(c) shall not apply to the extent that the existence of such provision would cause the occurrence of a Capital Disqualification Event, at its discretion, increase the then Prevailing Principal Amount of the Notes (a “Discretionary Reinstatement”) on any date and in any amount that it determines in its discretion (either up to the Principal Amount or to any lower amount) provided that such Discretionary Reinstatement: is permitted only if the Issuer and/or the Group complies with the Solvency Capital Requirement of the Issuer and/or the Group following such Discretionary Reinstatement; is not activated by reference to own funds regulatory capital (or whatever the terminology then employed by the Applicable Supervisory Regulations) of the Issuer and/or the Group, issued or increased in order to restore compliance with the Solvency Capital Requirement of the Issuer and/or the Group; occurs only on the basis of profits which contribute to Issuer’s Distributable Items made subsequent to the restoration of compliance with the Solvency Capital Requirement of the Issuer and/or the Group in a manner that (i) does not undermine the loss absorbency intended by Article 71(5) and Article 71(5)bis of the Solvency II Regulation and (ii) does not hinder recapitalisation as required by Article 71(1)(d) of the Solvency II Regulation; does not result in a Trigger Event; occurs within ten (10) years from the last Write-Down Date; and is authorised only if the Issuer and/or the Group is not subject to any Administrative Procedure and provided that if the Issuer and/or the Group has been subject to such Administrative Procedure, the Relevant Supervisory Authority has formally notified the Issuer and/or the Group of the end of such Administrative Procedure. A Discretionary Reinstatement may occur on one or more occasions until the then Prevailing Principal Amount of the Notes has been reinstated up to the Principal Amount. Any decision by the Issuer to effect or not to effect any Discretionary Reinstatement on any occasion shall not preclude it from effecting or not effecting any Discretionary Reinstatement on any other occasion. Any Discretionary Reinstatement shall be applied in respect of each Note equally. In addition, subject to any existing contractual restrictions, the Discretionary Reinstatement shall be effected using the amounts designated therefor on a pari passu basis with the discretionary reinstatement of other Loss Absorbing Tier 1 Instruments of the Issuer which provide for a discretionary reinstatement and for which the conditions for a discretionary reinstatement are fulfilled
