Interest on the Notes for the period from and including December 7, 2012 to but excluding December 7, 2013 (the “Fixed Rate Period”) will be payable quarterly in U.S. Dollars on March 7, 2013, June 7, 2013, September 7, 2013 and December 7, 2013 (the “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Dates”); provided that, if any such day falls on a day that is not a Business Day, it will be postponed to the following Business Day and interest thereon will not continue to accrue, except that if such following Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. During the Fixed Rate Period, the interest on the Notes will be equal to 1.00% per annum. During the Fixed Rate Period, interest will be computed and paid on a 30/360 basis (based upon the number of days elapsed in each month in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months).

Interest on the Notes for the period from and including December 7, 2013 to but excluding the Maturity Date (the “Floating Rate Period”) will be payable in U.S. Dollars quarterly, in arrears, on each March 7, June 7, September 7 and December 7, beginning March 7, 2014 (each a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date”); provided that, if any such day falls on a day that is not a Business Day, it will be postponed to the following Business Day and interest thereon will not continue to accrue, except that if such following Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. During the Floating Rate Period, the interest rate on the Notes will be equal to the sum of three month USD LIBOR plus 0.50%; provided that such interest rate shall at all times equal or exceed 0.75% per annum (the “Minimum Interest Rate”). During the Floating Rate Period, the interest rate will be reset quarterly on each scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (the “Interest Reset Date”), and will be determined quarterly, two London Business Days prior to each Interest Reset Date. During the Floating Rate Period, interest will be computed and paid on a 30/360 basis (based upon the number of days elapsed in each month in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months).
