1.The write-down of the principal amount shall apply on a pro rata basis to all holders of Additional Tier 1 instruments that include a similar write-down mechanism and an identical trigger level.

2.For the write-down to be considered temporary, all of the following conditions shall be met:

(d)a write-up shall be operated on a pro rata basis among similar Additional Tier 1 instruments that have been subject to a write-down;

(e)the maximum amount to be attributed to the sum of the write-up of the instrument together with the payment of coupons on the reduced amount of the principal shall be equal to the profit of the institution multiplied by the amount obtained by dividing the amount determined in point (1) by the amount determined in point (2):

(1)

the sum of the nominal amount of all Additional Tier 1 instruments of the institution before write-down that have been subject to a write-down;

(2)

the total Tier 1 capital of the institution.

(f)the sum of any write-up amounts and payments of coupons on the reduced amount of the principal shall be treated as a payment that results in a reduction of Common Equity Tier 1 and shall be subject, together with other distributions on Common Equity Tier 1 instruments, to the restrictions relating to the Maximum Distributable Amount as referred to in Article 141(2) of Directive 2013/36/EU, as transposed in national law or regulation.
