The Early Redemption Amount (as defined in the Conditions) amounts to 114 per cent. of each EUR 100,000 in principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed (the "Put Price"). The period for the Bondholders to exercise the Put Right by delivering an Optional Put Exercise Notice expired on 28 April 2022.

The exercise of such Clean-up Call will result in the redemption of the Bonds at a redemption price of 105 per cent. of their principal amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest up to the Optional Redemption Date (as defined in the Conditions) (the "Call Price").
