Subordinated Creditors will have the option to either (a) exchange their class B debt Instruments*) based on the ratio set out at "Eligible
Subscribers" of this term sheet or to (b) subscribe to zero coupon bearer bonds which are based on the same terms and conditions, except that
(i) the term will be approx. 54 years and (ii) the Repurchase Price will be based on a similar logic as outlined in Schedule B reasonably adjusted
to reflect the longer term. The Republic of Austria does not see the necessity for a stabilization mechanism for the instrument described under
(b); to be further discussed. In this respect, subordinated Creditors have made the following proposal: If no subordinated Creditor (MoUGläubiger as defined in the MoU) disagrees, the Issuer may issue a loan instrument (Schuldscheindarlehen) instead of the zero coupon bearer
bond described in (ii) above, such loan note being based substantially on the same terms and conditions as the zero coupon bearer bond,
provided that no Stabilisation has to be provided for such loan note.

SCHEDULE A TO THE TERM SHEET
The spread to the Euro Swap Rate for determining the Maturity and the Repurchase Price of the zero
coupon bearer bond ("Spread") will be fixed and rounded to 0.1 basis points one week prior to the
publication of the Transaction Offer. The absolute value of the Spread must be equal to, or less than,
twenty basis points (i.e. the Spread is set between -20 and +20 bps). For the avoidance of doubt,
once fixed, the Spread can no longer be amended. As a result, the fixed Spread will also be used
(i) two Austrian banking days prior to the Issue Date to determine the Maturity Date and (ii) to
determine each Repurchase Price on each Austrian banking day during the Stabilisation Period.
The maturity ("Maturity") of the zero coupon bearer bond will be calculated two Austrian banking
days prior to the Issue Date according to the price formula set forth in Schedule B and utilizing the
Spread fixed according to the first paragraph and the Euro Swap Rate then observed. The Maturity
shall be determined such that, at time of determination, the Price of the offered zero coupon bearer
bond (as defined in Schedule B) shall correspond to the price of a hypothetical zero coupon bearer
bond with a term of 13.500 years priced according to the price formula set forth in Schedule B
utilizing the Euro Swap Rate as observed on 18 April 2016 (0.7765%) and a spread of 0.7 bps
(corresponding to a total yield of 0.7835% for “Y” in the formula of Schedule B).
SCHEDULE B TO THE TERM SHEET
Price (in percentage points) =
(
)
x 100; the result will be rounded to three decimals; n equals the
period of the Term remaining from the date of a Repurchase Price calculation to the Maturity Date of
the zero coupon bearer bond (in years with the day count convention being actual/ actual rounded
to three decimals)
Y = (Euro Swap Rate for a term of n years) + Spread
Euro Swap Rate = Euro par swap rate for a term corresponding to the respective remaining Term of
the zero coupon bearer bond, as determined by the Stabiliser via its respective calculation agent at
11.15 a.m. CET on the date of determination and published on the Bloomberg-page ISDA under
Fixing Rates – Euribor A on the date of determination. The applicable rate will be the day-weighted
(actual/actual) linearly interpolated rate between the two maturities closest to the term of the zero
coupon bearer bond. If the applicable rate is not available on an Austrian banking day, the
documentation will provide for an international standard market disruption language (adjusted to
the case at hand according to the ISDA template).
Spread = spread, as fixed one week prior to the publication of the Transaction Offer (in accordance
with Schedule A). For the avoidance of doubt, the Spread to be used to calculate the Repurchase
Price shall be identical to the one determined one week prior to the publication of the Transaction
Offer in accordance with Schedule A. For further clarification, it is agreed that the Spread was 0.7 bps
on 18 April 2016 and will be newly fixed pursuant to Schedule A. The Spread will be rounded to 0.1
basis points.
Repurchase Price = Price as determined on each Austrian banking day on which a repurchase price is
required to be made in accordance with the above definition of Price.
