TAXATION<br />

The following is a general discussion of certain German and Luxembourg tax consequences of the<br />

acquisition and ownership of Notes. This discussion does not purport to be a comprehensive<br />

description of all tax considerations which may be relevant to a decision to purchase Notes. In<br />

particular, this discussion does not consider any specific facts or circumstances that may apply to<br />

a particular purchaser. This summary is based on the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany<br />

and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg currently in force and as applied on the date of this<br />

Prospectus, which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive or retrospective effect.<br />

PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF NOTES ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX<br />

ADVISORS AS TO THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND<br />

individual investor, church tax).<br />

The flat tax shall generally satisfy the individual investor's tax liability with respect to the Notes.<br />

Under certain circumstances, however, the investment income including the interest income under<br />

the Notes may (have to) be included in the investor's income tax return. The investor may, for<br />

example, opt for the inclusion in its income tax return if the individual investor's total income tax<br />

liability on all taxable income including the investment income determined on progressive income<br />

tax rates is less than the amount of income tax the investor owed had the investment income been<br />

taxed separately under the flat tax regime (i.e., most favoured treatment). The investor may also<br />
