Event will not prevent the occurrence and determination of a (new) Credit Event in relation to such<br />

Successor, even if the Final Terms provide that with respect to each Reference Entity only one notified<br />

Credit Event is taken into account.<br />

Implementation of Resolutions of the "Credit Derivatives Determination Committee"<br />

ISDA has established Credit Derivatives Determination Committees (each a "Committee") that<br />

comprise of dealers in and buyers of credit derivative instruments for the purpose of resolving matters<br />

and questions in connection with ISDA standard terms or an auction organised by ISDA.<br />

The Determination Agent may take any applicable resolutions of the relevant Committee into account<br />

when applying the Final Terms and the Terms and Conditions and in exercising its discretion. Potential<br />

investors should therefore be aware that their investment in Credit Linked Notes and any loss<br />

following a Credit Event could be dependent on resolutions of such Committee.<br />

Resolutions of a Committee may in particular be made with respect to the following events and<br />

circumstances:<br />

• occurrence (or non-occurrence) of a Credit Event with respect to a Reference Entity and the<br />

time of such occurrence;<br />

• whether an auction will be hold in respect of such Reference Entity and the parameters and<br />

timing of such auction, including the actual Deliverable Obligations of such Reference Entity;<br />

• occurrence (or non-occurrence) of a Succession Event with respect to a Reference Entity, the<br />

time of such occurrence and the identity of the Successor;<br />

• occurrence of a Potential Failure to Pay on behalf of the Reference Entity<br />

• replacement of the Reference Entity's reference obligation by another obligation; and<br />

• other circumstances brought before the Committee for resolution by market participants.<br />

The resolutions made by a relevant Committee will be published on the website<br />

General Risks relating to the value of the Notes and related investment costs and expenses<br />

Market Conditions<br />

The market for debt securities issued by German companies and banks is influenced by economic and<br />

market conditions in Germany and, to varying degrees, by market conditions, interest rates, currency<br />

exchange rates and inflation rates in other European and other industrialised countries. There can be<br />

no assurance that events in Germany, other European countries or elsewhere will not cause market<br />

volatility or that such volatility will not adversely affect the price of Notes or that economic and market<br />

conditions will not have any other adverse effect.<br />

Secondary Market<br />

There can be no assurance that an active trading market for Notes will develop, or, if one does<br />

develop, that it will be maintained. If an active trading market for the Notes does not develop or is not<br />

maintained, the market or trading price and liquidity of the Notes may be adversely affected. The<br />

Issuer, the Determination Agent or their affiliates are entitled to buy and sell the Notes for their own<br />

account or for the account of others, and to issue further Notes. Such transactions may favourably or<br />

adversely affect the price development of the Notes. If additional and competing products are<br />

introduced in the markets, this may adversely affect the value of the Notes.<br />
