PREAMBLE

Whereas:

(1) The euro-area Member States and EFSF have entered into a framework agreement to set out the terms and conditions upon which EFSF may make Loans to euro-area Member States, finance such Loans by issuing or entering into Funding Instruments backed by Guarantees issued by the Guarantors, the terms and conditions on which the Guarantors shall issue Guarantees in respect of the Funding Instruments issued by or entered into by EFSF, the arrangements entered into between them in the event that a Guarantor is required to pay under a Guarantee more than its required proportion of liabilities in respect of a Funding Instrument and certain other matters relating to EFSF (hereinafter referred to as the “Framework Agreement”).

(2) The euro-area Member States have by a unanimous decision on 11 March 2011 decided that EFSF may provide stability support to euro-area Member States by arranging for the purchase of bonds of such euro-area Member States on the primary market as financial assistance.

(3) In accordance with Article 13(8) of the Framework Agreement, the Republic of Estonia shall become a party to the Framework Agreement with effect from the Effective Date of the Amendments (as defined in Article 3(1) of this Amendment) by adhering to the Framework Agreement and entering into this Amendment.

(4) In a statement dated 21 July 2011 the Heads of State or Government of the euro area and EU institutions stated their intention to improve the effectiveness of EFSF and address contagion and that they had agreed to increase the flexibility of EFSF linked to appropriate conditionality. As a consequence, whilst originally financial assistance was provided solely by way of loan facility agreements, financial assistance may now be granted in the form of financial assistance facility agreements (“Financial Assistance Facility Agreements”, each a “Financial Assistance Facility Agreement”) to provide financial assistance by way of loan disbursements, precautionary facilities, facilities to finance the recapitalisation of financial institutions in a euro-area Member State (through loans to the governments of such Member States including in non-programme countries) , facilities for the purchase of bonds in the secondary markets on the basis of an ECB analysis recognizing the existence of exceptional financial market circumstances and risks to financial stability or facilities for the purchase of bonds in the primary market (each such utilization of a Financial Assistance Facility Agreement being a “Financial Assistance”) with the Financial Assistance to be made under all Financial Assistance Facility Agreements being financed with the benefit of guarantees in an amount of up to EUR 779,783.14 million to be used within a limited period of time. This is intended to result in an effective capacity for EFSF to provide Financial Assistance of EUR 440,000 million.

(5) The euro-area Member States and EFSF have agreed that the Framework Agreement shall be amended on the terms set out in this Amendment and that such amendments shall take effect prospectively on the Effective Date of the Amendments (as defined in Article 3(1) of this Amendment).

Now, therefore, the Parties have agreed as follows:

(4) Paragraph (2) of the preamble of the Framework Agreement shall be deleted and replaced by the following paragraphs (2) and 2(a) :

“EFSF has been incorporated on 7 June 2010 for the purpose of making stability support to euro-area Member States. In a statement dated 21 July 2011 the Heads of State or Government of the euro area and EU institutions stated their intention to improve the effectiveness of EFSF and address contagion and they had agreed to increase the flexibility of EFSF linked to appropriate conditionality. As a consequence, whilst originally financial assistance was provided solely by way of loan facility agreements, financial assistance may now be granted in the form of financial assistance facility agreements (“Financial Assistance Facility Agreements”, each a “Financial Assistance Facility Agreement”) to provide financial assistance by way of loan disbursements, precautionary facilities, facilities to finance the recapitalisation of financial institutions in a euro-area Member State (through loans to the governments of such Member States including in non-programme countries) , facilities for the purchase of bonds in the secondary markets on the basis of an ECB analysis recognizing the existence of exceptional financial market circumstances and risks to financial stability or facilities for the purchase of bonds in the primary market (each such utilization of a Financial Assistance Facility Agreement being a “Financial Assistance”) with the Financial Assistance to be made under all Financial Assistance Facility Agreements being financed with the benefit of guarantees in an amount of up to EUR 779,783.14 million to be used within a limited period of time. This is intended to result in an effective capacity for EFSF to provide Financial Assistance of EUR 440,000 million. The availability of such Financial Assistance Facility Agreements will be conditional upon the relevant euro-area Member States which request such Financial Assistance Facility Agreements entering into memoranda of understanding (each an “MoU”) with the European Commission, acting on behalf of the euro-area Member States, including conditions such as budgetary discipline and economic policy guidelines and their compliance with the terms of such MoU. With respect to each Financial Assistance Facility Agreement, the relevant beneficiary euro-area Member State shall be referred to as the “Beneficiary Member State”. If Financial Assistance is in the form of facilities for the purchase of bonds in the primary or secondary market, the nature and terms, including as to pricing, policy conditionality, conditions to utilization and documentation of such arrangements shall be in accordance with guidelines adopted by the board of directors of EFSF acting unanimously pursuant to Article 2(1)(b). Similarly, if Financial Assistance is in the form of precautionary facilities and facilities to finance the recapitalisation of financial institutions of a euro-area Member State, the board of directors of EFSF acting unanimously shall adopt guidelines under Article 2(1)(c) in relation to such arrangements. The terms of an MoU shall impose appropriate policy conditionality for the full duration of a Financial Assistance Facility Agreement and not just limited to the period in which Financial Assistance is made available. The conditions attached to the provision of Financial Assistance by EFSF as well as the rules which apply to monitoring compliance must be fully consistent with the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the acts of EU law.

(2)(a) On 20 June 2011, euro area Finance Ministers agreed that the pricing structure for EFSF loan facility agreements should be as follows:

“(a) EFSF Cost of Funding; plus

(b) the Margin.

The margin shall be equal to 200 basis points with such Margin being increased to 300 basis points in respect of any Loan which remains outstanding after the third anniversary of the date of disbursement.

In respect of fixed rated Loans with a scheduled maturity which exceeds three (3) years, the Margin shall be equal to the weighted average of 200 basis points for the first three (3) years and 300 basis points for the period from (and including) the third anniversary of its drawdown and ending on (but excluding) the scheduled maturity date of such Loan.”

Subsequently, on 21 July 2011, Heads of State or Government of the euro area stated:

“We have decided to lengthen the maturity of future EFSF loans to Greece to the maximum extent possible from the current 7.5 years to a minimum of 15 years and up to 30 years with a grace period of 10 years. In this context, we will ensure adequate post programme monitoring. We will provide EFSF loans at lending rates equivalent to those of the Balance of Payments facility (currently approx. 3.5%) , close to, without going below, the EFSF funding cost. We also decided to extend substantially the maturities of the existing Greek facility. This will be accompanied by a mechanism which ensures appropriate incentives to implement the programme.”

“The EFSF lending rates and maturities we agreed upon for Greece will be applied also for Portugal and Ireland.” ”

(A)The following Member States whose currency is the euro: Kingdom of Belgium, Ireland, Kingdom of Spain, French Republic, Italian Republic, Republic of Cyprus, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Republic of Malta, Kingdom of the Netherlands, Republic of Austria, Portuguese Republic, Republic of Slovenia and Republic of Finland, represented by the European Commission (hereinafter referred to as the “Commission”) and KfW acting in the public interest, subject to the instructions of and with the benefit of the guarantee of the Federal Republic of Germany (hereinafter referred to as the “Lenders” and each, a “Lender”);

(B)The Hellenic Republic (hereinafter referred to as “Greece” or the “Borrower”), represented by the Minister of Finance; and

(C)The Bank of Greece acting as agent on behalf of the Borrower (hereinafter referred to as the “Borrower’s Agent”), represented by the Governor of the Bank of Greece.

PREAMBLE

Whereas:

(1)A EUR 80 000 000 000 Loan Facility Agreement dated 8 May 2010 (hereinafter referred to as the “Agreement”) has been made between the Lenders and the Hellenic Republic and the Bank of Greece. Loans amounting to EUR 52 900 000 000 have been disbursed and the undrawn amounts were cancelled in April 2012.

(2)A first Amendment to the Agreement was signed on 14 June 2011 in accordance with the conclusions of the Heads of State and Government of the Euro Area of 11 March 2011 that, in view of the commitments undertaken by Greece in the context of the adjustment programme, the interest rate on its loan would be adjusted by 100 basis points and the maturity of all loans will be increased to 7.5 years.

(3)A second Amendment to the Agreement was signed on 27 February 2012 in order to further extend the maturity of all Loans to 15 years and to reduce the interest rate margin to 150 basis points.

(4)On 27 November 2012, the Eurogroup stated that the Lenders had agreed to a lowering by 100 basis points of the interest rate charged to Greece on the loans provided in the context of the Greek Loan Facility. Member States under a full financial assistance programme will not be required to participate in the lowering of the interest rates for the period in which they receive themselves financial assistance. An extension of maturity of the loans by 15 years was also decided.

(5)The Lenders in all their functions, rights and obligations under this Agreement act through and are represented by the Commission. The Lenders have agreed to act in a coordinated manner and to channel communications to the Commission through the Eurogroup Working Group Chairman.

(6)The Federal Republic of Germany (“Germany”) has designated KfW as Lender on behalf of Germany for the purposes of the Agreement. Accordingly, references to KfW as Lender refer to KfW acting in the public interest, subject to the instructions of and with the benefit of the guarantee of Germany also for the purposes of this Amendment.

Now, therefore, the parties hereto have agreed as follows:

1.AMENDMENTS TO THE LOAN FACILITY AGREE-MENT

The Agreement, as amended on 14 June 2011 and on 27 February 2012, is hereby amended as follows:

(1)In Article 3, paragraph 3, point (d) shall be replaced by the following:

“the term of the requested Loan which may not exceed thirty years from the Disbursement Date of the Loan and the last day of which must be an Interest Payment Date (as defined below) (the “Term”); and”.

(2)In Article 5, paragraph 1, point (b) shall be replaced by the following:

“a margin equal to 50 basis points”.

(3)All other Articles remain unchanged.

2.GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

(1)This Amendment and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by and shall be construed in accordance with English law.

(2)The parties undertake to submit any dispute which may arise relating to the legality, validity, interpretation or performance of this Amendment to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Justice of the European Union.

(3)Judgements of the Court of Justice of the European Union shall be fully binding on and enforceable by the parties.

(4)The Lenders may enforce any judgement obtained from the Court of Justice of the European Union, or other rights against the Borrower in the courts of the country of the Borrower.

(5)The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives all immunity to which it is or may become entitled, in respect of itself or its assets, from legal proceedings in relation to this Amendment, including, without limitation, immunity from suit, judgement or other order, from attachment, arrest or injunction prior to judgement, and from execution and enforcement against its assets to the extent not prohibited by mandatory law.

3.ENTRY INTO FORCE AND ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

(1)Following its signature by all parties, this Amendment shall enter into force on the date on which:

(a)the Lenders have received the official notification in the form of the Legal Opinion by the Legal Advisor to the State at the Ministry of Justice, Transparency and Human Rights and the Legal Advisor to the State at the Ministry of Finance in the form of Annex 1 that this Amendment has been duly executed on behalf of the Borrower and all of the Borrower’s obligations in relation to this Amendment are valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with their terms and nothing further is required to give effect to the same; and

(b)the Commission has received a written confirmation from the Eurogroup Working Group Chairman that all Lenders under their national laws are duly authorised to be bound under this Amendment,

on which date this Amendment shall enter into effect and be binding on and between the Borrower, the Borrower’s Agent and all Lenders. The Commission shall notify the Borrower, the Borrower’s Agent and the Lenders about the date of entry into force.

It is acknowledged and agreed that the authorisation of a Lender to be bound under this Amendment may be of provisional application in accordance with the national laws and legislation of the relevant Member State.

If this Amendment enters into force less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to an Interest Payment Date, the reduction shall occur on the following Interest Payment Date. If the amount of the reduction exceeds the interest due on a single Interest Payment Date, the remaining part shall be compensated on the subsequent Interest Payment Date.
