Beskrivning av Obligationerna Obligationerna är nollkupongsobligationer, denominerade i svenska kronor, kapitalbeloppsbestämda, aktieindexrelaterade och emitterade av Emittenten den 13 februari 2007 samt förfaller till betalning i maj 2010. Nominellt belopp per Obligation är SEK 10 000 och det sammanlagda nominella beloppet är SEK 500 000 000. Emissionskursen är 110% av det nominella beloppet. Avkastningen, utöver nominellt belopp, som betalas till investeraren på förfallodagen är kopplad till utvecklingen av en korg bestående av två Index; CECE Composite EUR Index ( Index 1 ) och Russian Depositary Receipts Index ( Index 2 ) (var och en benämnt Index och tillsammans benämnda Indexen. Obligationerna kan endast bli inlösta i förtid efter avtalsbrott av Emittenten, efter införande av brittisk källskatt på betalningar avseende Obligationerna eller Emittentens betalningsförpliktelser eller dess hedgingarrangemang skulle vara eller bli olagliga. Ansökan om att inregistrera Obligationerna på Stockholmsbörsen kommer att göras. Avkastning på förfallodagen När Obligationerna förfaller till betalning maj 2010 kommer investerarna erhålla (i) 100% av det nominella beloppet samt (ii) en avkastning beräknad som nominellt belopp multiplicerat med det större av noll och Korgavkastningen enligt vad som anges nedan, multiplicerad med 100 procent (sådan procentsats är indikativ och bestäms utifrån marknadsförhållandena på den Initiala Fastställelsedagen, med förbehåll att den lägst kommer vara 100 procent). Om Korgavkastningen är noll eller negativ kommer investerare endast erhålla 100 procent av nominellt belopp på förfallodagen. Korgavkastningen beräknas enligt följande: (i) Indexavkastningen för varje Index beräknas som den procentuella förändringen avseende indexnivån för Index på den Initiala Fastställelsedagen och den Slutliga Indexnivån. Den Slutliga Indexnivån beräknas som genomsnittet av Index indexnivåer vid var och en av Genomsnittsdagarna. (ii) Indexavkastningen för varje Index multipliceras sedan med Indexviktning för relevant Index. De slutliga siffrorna adderas sedan och utgör tillsammans Korgavkastningen. Genomsnittsdag betyder den 2:a kalenderdagen i varje månad med början den 2 maj 2009 till och med 2 maj 2010 (totalt 13 Genomsnittsdagar). Indexviktning betyder, avseende CECE Composite EUR Index, 75 procent, avseende Russian Depositary Receipts Index, 25 procent. Inital Fastsällelsedag betyder 2 maj 2007. Observera att de fullständiga villkoren som återfinns i Värdepappersnoten innehåller bestämmelser angående vilka dagar som inte räknas som bankdagar, avbrott och justeringar, vilka kan påverka varje Indexet och nivåer på Indexet samt avseende tidpunkter för beräkningar och betalning i enlighet med Obligationerna.. A07402813/1.0/08 Feb 2007 3
De fullständiga villkoren för Obligationerna framgår av Värdepappersnoten avseende Obligationerna, vilken finns tillgänglig i betalningsombudens (Paying Agents) lokaler. Erbjudande HQ Bankaktiebolag ( HQ ) har samtyckt till att köpa från Emittenten och Emittenten har samtyckt till att sälja, alla eller vissa av Obligationerna, till HQ. HQ har informerat Emittenten att de och vissa Underdistributörer (Länsförsäkringar Bank, Sparbanken Gripen AB (publ) och Sparbanken Finn) har för avsikt att i eget namn erbjuda Obligationerna till allmänheten i Sverige. Varken Emittenten eller Dealern har något ansvar för ett sådana erbjudanden. Erbjudandeperioden är mellan 19 februari 2007till 13 april 2007. Erbjudandeperioden kan komma att bli avbruten när som helst. Det högsta nominella beloppet på erbjudandet är SEK 500 000 000. Erbjudandepriset kommer att vara 110% av det nominella beloppet. Köp kan göras genom att ge in en köporder vilken kan erhållas från HQ eller relevant Underdistributör, eller enligt instruktioner från HQ eller relevant Underdistributör. Betalning för Obligationerna skall vara HQ eller relevant Underdistributör tillhanda på eller omkring 23 april 2007 för att leverans av Obligationerna till köparnas konto skall ske på eller omkring den 4 maj 2007. HQ eller relevant underdistributör kommer att ta ut courtage av köparna vilket inte kommer överstiga 3 % av priset på Obligationerna. HQ förbehåller sig rätten att återkalla erbjudandet om det förvärvade nominella beloppet är mindre än 50 000 000, eller om HQ, utifrån sitt bästa omdöme, bedömer att några faktorer medför att det blir olagligt, omöjligt eller icke praktiskt att fullfölja erbjudandet, antingen i sin helhet eller till viss del, eller om marknadsförhållandena har påverkats på ett väsentligt negativt sätt. Vid ett eventuellt återkallande kommer HQ eller relevant Underdistributör återbetala, av köparen erlagt, förvärvspris samt courtage utan ränta. Riskfaktorer Villkoren för Obligationerna anger att det belopp som skall betalas till investeraren vid förfallodagen kommer att vara beroende av utvecklingen av Indexen och frånvaron av Jurisdictional Events. Beloppet som betalas vid förfallodagen (men inte vid förtida inlösen) kommer att uppgå till minst 100 % av nominellt belopp, vilket är mindre än emissionskursen. En investering i Obligationerna är inte detsamma som en investering i enskild eller samtliga aktier eller depositions kvitto som omfattas av Indexen eller en investering som är direkt knuten till dessa Index. Framförallt kommer investerarna inte få ta del av utdelningar. Nivåerna på Indexen kan gå ner likväl som upp under Obligationernas löptid. Dessutom behöver inte nivån på Indexen en specifik dag spegla Indexens tidigare eller framtida utveckling. Det finns inga garantier avseende Indexets framtida utveckling. Därför bör eventuella investerare noggrant överväga huruvida en investering som baseras på utvecklingen av Indexen är lämplig för dem. Obligationerna innefattar komplexa risker vilka bland annat inkluderar aktiekursrisker, kreditrisker, valutakursrisker, ränterisker och/eller politiska risker. Det är inte möjligt att förutse kursen till vilken Obligationerna kommer att handlas på marknaden eller om en sådan marknad kommer att vara likvid eller illikvid. Emittenten kan, men är inte skyldig A07402813/1.0/08 Feb 2007 4
att, köpa Obligationer vid vilken tidpunkt som helst till vilket pris som helst på den öppna marknaden eller genom erbjudande eller privat överenskommelse. Varje Obligation som köpts på det viset får behållas eller vidaresäljas eller överlämnas för annullering. Marknaden för Obligationer kan vara begränsad. Det enda sättet på vilket en innehavare kan realisera värdet från en Obligation innan Förfallodagen är att sälja den till då rådande marknadspris, vilket kan vara lägre än det belopp som inledningsvis investerades. Kursfluktuationer på aktierna eller depåbevisen som omfattas av Indexen och på Indexnivåerna kan komma att påverka värdet på Obligationerna. Beloppet som skall betalas och som är hänförligt till att Russian Depository Receipt Index finns med i korgen kan minska om värdet på intäkterna för Emittentens hedgingarrangemang i förhållande till detta Index är reducerat på grund av olika orsaker (beskrivet som Jurisdictional Events) relaterade till risker med den ryska federationen eller handel eller publicering av priser avseende underliggande aktier och andra värdepapper som ingår i det ryska Indexet. Följaktligen är en investering i Obligationerna endast lämplig för investerare som (antingen ensamma eller tillsammans med en lämplig finansiell rådgivare) klarar av att utvärdera värdet och riskerna med en sådan investering och vilka har tillräckliga resurser för att kunna bära varje förlust som kan bli följden därav. Nivån och grunden för beskattning av Obligationerna samt lättnader i beskattningen kan förändras när som helst. Värdet av lättnader i beskattningen beror på en investerares individuella förhållanden. Beskattningen och den näringsrättsliga behandlingen av Obligationerna kan ändras under Obligationernas löptid. Detta kan medföra negativa konsekvenser för investerare. Innan eventuella investerare gör ett investeringsbeslut med avseende på obligationerna bör dessa konsultera sina egna finansiella, skatte- eller andra rådgivare i den omfattning de finner det nödvändigt och noggrant gå igenom och överväga ett sådant investeringsbeslut mot bakgrund av det ovanstående och deras personliga förhållanden.

General Information 1. There has been no material adverse change in the prospects of the Issuer since 31st December, 2006. 2. The Issuer is the subject of legal proceedings commenced in August 2004 before the Court of Parma in Italy by Dr Enrico Bondi, the Extraordinary Administrator, on behalf of Parmalat SpA (in Extraordinary Administration), relating to an agreement entered into between the Issuer and Parmalat SpA in December 2001. By these proceedings the Extraordinary Administrator seeks to have the said agreement set aside and demands repayment by the Issuer of approximately EUR 248 million. The proceedings are being vigorously contested by the Issuer. The Extraordinary Administrator has also commenced two further actions before the Court of Parma (i) against the Issuer seeking damages on the basis of allegations that by the 2001 transaction the Issuer delayed the insolvency of Parmalat Participacoes of Brazil and consequently of Parmalat SpA with the result that Parmalat's overall deficit increased by about EUR 7.1 billion between January 2002 and the declaration of its insolvency in December 2003 and (ii) against the Issuer and five other banks seeking damages on the basis of allegations that by various derivatives transactions in 2003 the Issuer and those other banks delayed the insolvency of Parmalat SpA with the result that its overall deficit increased by about EUR 2 billion between July and December 2003. In addition, unquantified claims for damages have been filed in Italy on behalf of a number of individuals claiming to have suffered loss as a result of the actions of employees of the Issuer. All these allegations are without foundation and the proceedings will be vigorously contested by the Issuer. Proceedings have also been brought in New York by Parmalat investors against various defendants including the Issuer seeking unquantified damages. The allegations against the Issuer make reference to the December 2001 transaction. A memorandum of understanding has been entered into between the Plaintiffs, Credit Suisse entities (including the issuer) and another defendant (Banca Nazionale del Lavoro), the result of which is that, subject to final documentation, the Credit Suisse entities will pay US$25 million to settle these proceedings without admission of liability. In related cases also brought in New York, claims have been filed against the Issuer by the trustees of two bankrupt US subsidiaries of Parmalat SpA. These claims will be vigorously contested. The Issuer has claimed in the insolvency of Parmalat Participacoes of Brazil in respect of EUR 500 million of bonds issued by that entity and held by the Issuer. Parmalat Participacoes has made a claim in response alleging that the debt represented by the bonds has already been paid and asserting that it is therefore entitled under Brazilian law to twice the amount of the debt claimed by the Issuer. This allegation is without any foundation and the proceedings will be vigorously contested. Save as disclosed, the Issuer has not been involved in any governmental, legal or arbitration proceedings (including any such proceedings which are pending or threatened of which the Issuer is aware), during the last 12 months which may have, or have had in the recent past, significant effects on the financial position or profitability of the Issuer or the Issuer and its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Group"). 3.
