Documents available:

   --        the Trust Deed;

General

The attention of the Series 1 Noteholders is particularly drawn to the quorum required for the Adjourned Meeting which is set out in "Voting and Quorum" below. Having regard to such requirements, the Series 1 Noteholders are strongly urged either to attend the Adjourned Meeting or to take steps to be represented at the Adjourned Meeting, as referred to below, as soon as possible.

In accordance with its normal practice, the Trustee expresses no view as to the merits of the Extraordinary Resolutions but the Trustee has authorised it to be stated that it has no objection to the Extraordinary Resolutions being put to Series 1 Noteholders for their consideration. The Trustee has not been involved in negotiating the Extraordinary Resolutions and makes no representation that all relevant information has been disclosed to the Series 1 Noteholders in or pursuant to this Notice.

Accordingly, the Trustee recommends that Series 1 Noteholders who are unsure of the impact of the Extraordinary Resolutions should seek their own financial, regulatory, legal, tax or other advice, as appropriate.

Adjourned Meeting of Series 1 Noteholders

The provisions governing the convening and holding of the Adjourned Meeting are set out in Schedule 3 to the Trust Deed, copies of which are available for inspection as referred to above.

It is acknowledged that the communication and transmission systems and information sharing platforms used for a virtual meeting may not be secure and there are security and other risks associated with the use of these systems and platforms. In no event shall the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee or any person who controls, or is a director, officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Issuer, the Guarantor or the Trustee be liable for any losses or liabilities to any person as a result of, or in connection with, receiving or transmitting any information relating to the holding or conducting of any virtual meeting via any non-secure method of transmission or communication or the use of any information sharing platform.

Global Certificate in respect of the Series 1 Notes

The Series 1 Notes are currently represented by a global certificate (the "Global Certificate") held by and registered in the name of a nominee of for Euroclear Bank SA/NV ("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking S.A. ("Clearstream, Luxembourg", and together with Euroclear, the "Clearing Systems" and each a "Clearing System"). Each person (a "Beneficial Owner") who is the owner of a particular principal amount of the Series 1 Notes, as shown in the records of the Clearing Systems or their respective accountholders ("Direct Participants"), should note that such person will not be a Series 1 Noteholder for the purposes of this Notice and will only be entitled to attend and vote at the Adjourned Meeting or to appoint a proxy to do so in accordance with the procedures set out below. On this basis, in relation to Series 1 Notes held through the Clearing Systems, the only Series 1 Noteholder for the purposes of this Notice will be the registered holder of the Global Certificate, being the Registered Holder, as a common depositary or nominee for the Clearing Systems. Accordingly, Beneficial Owners should convey their voting instructions, directly or through the Direct Participant through whom they hold their interest in the Series 1 Notes, to the relevant Clearing System in accordance with their respective procedures or arrange by the same means to be appointed a proxy.

Euroclear/Clearstream, Luxembourg Procedures

(i) A Series 1 Noteholder may, by an instrument in writing (a "form of proxy") in the form available from the specified office of the Transfer Agent, as specified below in English signed by the Series 1 Noteholder or, in the case of a corporation, executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by its duly appointed attorney or a duly authorised officer of the corporation and delivered to the specified office of the Transfer Agent not less than 48 hours before the time fixed for the Adjourned Meeting, appoint any person (a "proxy") to act on their or its behalf in connection with the Adjourned Meeting.

(ii) Any Series 1 Noteholder which is a corporation may, by delivering to the specified office of the Transfer Agent not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for any meeting a resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise any person to act as its representative (a "representative") in connection with the Adjourned Meeting.

(iii) Beneficial Owners and Direct Participants who hold their interest in the Series 1 Notes through a Clearing System and who wish to attend and vote at the Adjourned Meeting should contact the relevant Clearing System to make arrangements to be appointed as a proxy (by the Series 1 Noteholder) in respect of the Series 1 Notes in which they have an interest for the purposes of attending and voting at the Adjourned Meeting (as set out in paragraph (i) above). The proxy to be so appointed may be selected by the Direct Participant or the Beneficial Owner (and could be the Beneficial Owner if an individual).

Beneficial Owners or Direct Participants who hold their interest in the Series 1 Notes through a Clearing System and who do not wish to attend and vote at the Adjourned Meeting should contact the relevant Clearing System to make arrangements for the Series 1 Noteholder to appoint the Issuing and Paying Agent or any one or more of its employees (as it shall determine) as proxy to cast the votes either for or against relating to the Series 1 Notes in which he has an interest at the Adjourned Meeting.

Beneficial Owners must have made arrangements for the appointment of proxies with the relevant Clearing System by not later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the Adjourned Meeting and within the relevant time limit specified by the relevant Clearing System and request or make arrangements for the relevant Clearing System to block the Series 1 Notes in the relevant Direct Participant's account and to hold the same to the order of or under the control of the Transfer Agent (save that during the period of 48 hours before the time fixed for the Adjourned Meeting such instructions may not be amended or revoked or withdrawn).

(iv) A proxy so appointed pursuant to paragraph (i) or (iii) above or representative appointed pursuant to paragraph (ii) above shall so long as such appointment remains in force be deemed, for all purposes in connection with the Adjourned Meeting to be holder of the Series 1 Notes to which such appointment related and the Series 1 Noteholder shall be deemed for such purposes not to be such Series 1 Noteholder.

(v) A Direct Participant whose Notes have been so blocked will thus be able to procure that a voting instruction is given in accordance with the procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg.

(vi) Any Series 1 Note(s) so held and blocked for either of these purposes will be released to the Direct Participant by the relevant Clearing System on the conclusion of the Adjourned Meeting; provided, however that if the Series 1 Noteholder has caused a proxy to be appointed in respect of such Note(s) prior to such time, such Note(s) will not be released to the relevant Direct Participant unless and until the Series 1 Noteholder has notified the Issuer of the necessary revocation of or amendment to such proxy.

Quorum and Voting Majority

Each person eligible and wishing to attend the Adjourned Meeting shall give notice in writing to the Issuing and Paying Agent no later than 48 hours before the time fixed for the Adjourned Meeting. Such notice shall specify the full name of the person, the capacity in which they are attending and (if voting) the principal amount of the Series 1 Notes they hold or represent and their email contact details. The notice shall be accompanied by an electronic copy of a valid identification document (passport or driving licence) and, if applicable, sufficient evidence of blocking the Series 1 Notes such person holds. Each duly appointed proxy, representative and any person entitled to attend the Adjourned Meeting who has given notice of their wish to attend in accordance with the procedures set out herein, will be provided with videoconference access details in advance of such Adjourned Meeting by the Issuing and Paying Agent. A proxy, representative or other person shall not receive access to the Adjourned Meeting unless such person gives notice in accordance with this paragraph. A person eligible and wishing to attend the Adjourned Meeting may attend the videoconference by electronic means through the platform arranged for the videoconference.

The Extraordinary Resolution may only be considered at the Adjourned Meeting if the Adjourned Meeting is quorate. The Adjourned Meeting will be quorate if at least two or more persons being entitled to vote (whether as a Noteholder or as proxy or representative) are present at the Adjourned Meeting and hold or represent at least 25 per cent. in principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding, provided that the holder of the Notes represented by the Global Certificate shall be treated as two persons for the purposes of any quorum requirements.

Any Noteholder who has submitted electronic voting instructions or duly appointed a proxy or representative shall have a right to revoke such instruction up until 48 hours before the Adjourned Meeting but not thereafter unless otherwise required by law or permitted by the Trust Deed, by submitting a revocation instruction to the relevant Clearing System or validly revoking the proxy or appointment of the representative. Any electronic voting instruction or form of proxy submitted in connection with the Initial Meeting shall remain valid for the Adjourned Meeting unless otherwise validly revoked.

Every question submitted at the Adjourned Meeting will be decided in the first instance by a show of hands unless a poll is (before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands) demanded by the chairman, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee or one or more persons present holding Series 1 Notes or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing in the aggregate not less than 2 per cent. of the principal amount of the Series 1 Notes for the time being outstanding. On a show of hands every person who is present (via videoconference) and who is a Series 1 Noteholder or is a proxy or representative shall have one vote.

On a poll, every person who is so present shall have one vote for each EUR 1.00 in principal amount of each Note so held or owned in respect of which he is a proxy or representative.

In case of equality of votes the chairman shall, both on a show of hands and on a poll, have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) to which he may be entitled as a Series 1 Noteholder or as a proxy.

To be passed at the Adjourned Meeting, an Extraordinary Resolution requires a majority in favour of at least 75 per cent. of the votes cast at such Adjourned Meeting.

If passed, the Extraordinary Resolutions will be binding upon all Series 1 Noteholders, whether or not they were present or represented at the Adjourned Meeting and whether or not they voted at the Adjourned Meeting.

This Notice, and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it, is governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, English law.
