In such examination we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents, agreements and instruments submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents, agreements and instruments of all documents, agreements and instruments submitted to us as copies or specimens, the authenticity of the originals of such documents, agreements and instruments submitted to us as copies or specimens, the conformity of the text of each document filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the �Commission�) through the Commission�s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System to the printed document reviewed by us, the accuracy of the matters set forth in the documents, agreements and instruments we reviewed, and that such documents, agreements and instruments evidence the entire understanding between the parties and have not been amended, modified or supplemented in any manner material to the opinions expressed herein.

Except as expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation (including, without limitation, conducting any review, search or investigation of any public files, records or dockets) to determine the existence or absence of the facts that are material to our opinions, and no inference as to our knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from our reliance on the representations of the Company and others in connection with the preparation and delivery of this letter.

In particular, we have examined and relied upon: (a)�the Company�s Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No.�333-200212) (the �Registration Statement�), including the Prospectus dated November�14, 2014, the Product Supplement dated November�17, 2014 relating to the Airbag Yield Optimization Notes, the Prospectus Supplement dated November�17, 2014 relating to the Airbag Yield Optimization Notes, the Product Supplement dated November�17, 2014 relating to the Contingent Absolute Return Autocallable Optimization
