Regulation” and, together with MAR, the “Regulations”) under the terms and conditions detailed below:
|
|
|
| Purpose: |
|
To reduce BBVA’s share capital by means of the redemption of the acquired shares. |
|
|
| Maximum cash amount: |
|
The maximum cash amount will be 1,000 million Euros. |
|
|

|
|
| Start of the execution: |
|
Execution will start on 1 July 2022. |
|
|
| End of the execution: |
|
The Second Segment will end no later than 29 September 2022 and, in any event, when the maximum cash amount is reached or the
maximum number of shares is acquired. However, the Company
reserves the right to temporarily suspend or to early terminate the execution of the Second Segment in the event of any circumstance that so advises or requires. |
1 The terms Second Segment and Program Scheme will have the same meaning as provided in the Second Segment Execution

|
|
|
| Trading venue: |
|
The acquisitions will be made on the Spanish Electronic Trading Interconnection System – Continuous Market (the
“Continuous Market”). |
|
|
| Manager: |
|
The execution will be carried out externally through CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS EUROPE AG (the “Manager”), who will
make its decisions concerning the timing of the purchases of the BBVA shares independently of the Company. |
|
|
| Conditions of the Second Segment: |
|
The Second Segment will be executed pursuant to the following conditions: |
|
|
|
|
(i) by purchasing in each trading session on the Continuous Market (other than a Discontinued Day) 4,250,000 shares (the “Daily
Target Number of Shares”), except in cases of force majeure or if the Manager is unable to purchase such number of shares due to limitations derived from the provisions of article 3.2 of the Delegated Regulation.
For these purposes, a Discontinued Day is understood to be any
trading session of the Continuous Market in which there is a significant disruption in the market or in the quotation of the BBVA shares (including if their trading price falls below their nominal value during a substantial part of the session) or
if the trading volume for the BBVA share is less than 2.5 times the Daily Target Number of Shares.
(ii) The own shares will be purchased respecting in all cases the conditions and the price and volume limits set forth in the Regulations.
In particular, it is hereby stated that the Daily Target Number of
Shares is less than 25% of the average daily volume of the BBVA shares in the Spanish Electronic Trading Interconnection System – Continuous Market in the month preceding this communication (thus complying with the provisions of article 3.3.a)
of the Delegated Regulation). |
The share purchase transactions carried out, as well as the completion or, as the case may be, the interruption of
the execution of the Second Segment, will be duly reported to the Spanish National Securities Market Commission in accordance with the Regulations.
