Loss Absorption upon a DBSH Trigger Event in respect of DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities:
(i) DBSH Write-off on a DBSH Trigger Event:
(A) If "Write-off" is specified as being applicable for the Loss Absorption Option in the applicable Pricing Supplement for any DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities and a DBSH Trigger Event occurs DBSH shall, upon the issue of a DBSH Trigger Event Notice, irrevocably and without the need for the consent of the Trustee or the holders of any DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities, reduce the principal amount and cancel any accrued but unpaid Distribution of each DBSH Perpetual Capital Security (in whole or in part) by an amount equal to the DBSH Trigger Event Write-off Amount per DBSH Perpetual Capital Security (a "DBSH Write-off", and "Written-off" shall be construed accordingly). Once any principal or Distribution under a DBSH Perpetual Capital Security has been Written-off, it will be extinguished and will not be restored in any circumstances, including where the relevant DBSH Trigger Event ceases to continue. No Securityholder may exercise, claim or plead any right to any DBSH Trigger Event Write-off Amount, and each Securityholder shall be deemed to have waived all such rights to such DBSH Trigger Event Write-off Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, any DBSH Write-off in accordance with this Condition 7(b) shall not constitute a Default.
(B) If a DBSH Trigger Event Notice has been given in respect of any DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities in accordance with this Condition 7(b), transfers of any such DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities that are the subject of such notice shall not be permitted during the Suspension Period (as defined in Condition 2). From the date on which a DBSH Trigger Event Notice in respect of any DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities in accordance with this Condition 7(b) is issued by DBSH to the end of the Suspension Period, the Trustee and the Registrar, if applicable, shall not register any attempted transfer of any DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities. As a result, such an attempted transfer will not be effective.
(C) Any reference in these Conditions to principal in respect of the DBSH Perpetual Capital Securities shall refer to the principal amount of the DBSH Perpetual Capital Security(ies), reduced by any applicable DBSH Write-off(s).
Bail-in Power
(i) Notwithstanding any other term of the Perpetual Capital Securities, including without limitation Condition 7(a) or 7(b), or any other agreement or arrangement, the Perpetual Capital Securities may be subject to cancellation, modification, conversion, change in form, or have the effect as if a right of modification, conversion, or change of form had been exercised by the MAS in the exercise of the MAS' powers under Division 4A of Part IVB of the MAS Act without prior notice. The Trustee (on behalf of the holders of the Perpetual Capital Securities) and each holder of a Perpetual Capital Security shall be subject, and shall be deemed to agree, to be bound by and acknowledge that they are each subject to having the Perpetual Capital Security being the subject of the exercise of the MAS' powers under Divisions 4A of Part IVB of the MAS Act. Further, the Trustee (on behalf of the holders of the Perpetual Capital Securities) and each holder of a Perpetual Capital Security shall be deemed to agree to be bound by a Bail-in Certificate.
'Non-cumulative Distribution": If a Distribution is not paid in accordance with Condition 5(a) and/or Condition 5(b), the Issuer is not under any obligation to pay that or any other Distributions that have not been paid. Such unpaid Distributions are non-cumulative and do not accrue interest. There is no limit on the number of times or the extent of the amount with respect to which the Issuer can elect not to pay Distributions pursuant to this Condition 5.
Distribution Stopper
If Distribution Stopper is specified as being applicable in the applicable Pricing Supplement and on any Distribution Payment Date, payment of Distributions scheduled to be made on such date is not made by reason of this Condition 5, the Issuer shall not: (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions in respect of its Junior Obligations (or contribute any monies to a sinking fund for the payment of any dividends or distributions in respect of any such Junior Obligations); (ii) declare or pay, or permit any subsidiary (where relevant) of the Issuer to declare or pay, any dividends or distributions in respect of its Additional Tier 1 Capital Securities the terms of which provide that making payments of dividends or distributions in respect thereof are fully at the discretion of the Issuer (or contribute any monies to a sinking fund for the payment of any dividends or distributions in respect of any such Additional Tier 1 Capital Securities); and (iii) redeem, reduce, cancel, buy-back or acquire any of its Additional Tier 1 Capital Securities or its Junior Obligations or permit any subsidiary (where relevant) of the Issuer to redeem, reduce, cancel, buy-back or acquire any of its Additional Tier 1 Capital Securities or its Junior Obligations (or contribute any monies to a sinking fund for the redemption, capital reduction, buy-back or acquisition of any such Additional Tier 1 Capital Securities or Junior Obligations), in each case, until (w) a redemption of all the outstanding Perpetual Capital Securities has occurred; (x) the outstanding Perpetual Capital Securities has been Written-off in its entirety; (y) the next two scheduled Distributions has been paid in full (or an amount equivalent to the next two scheduled Distribution has been paid, or irrevocably set aside in a separately designated trust account for payment to the Securityholders); or (z) the Issuer is permitted to do so by an Extraordinary Resolution (as defined in the Trust Deed).
