TITLE I
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Name, registered office, corporate purpose and duration of the company
Article 1. Name
The Company is called Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. (hereinafter the Bank or the Company) and will be governed by the law, these Bylaws and other provisions applicable to it at any time.
Article 2. Registered office
The Bank has its registered office in the city of Bilbao (Bizkaia), 4, Plaza de San Nicolás, and may establish branches, agencies, delegations and representative offices anywhere in Spain or abroad, in accordance with the legal provisions in force.
The registered office may be changed within the same municipal district by resolution of the Board of Directors.
Article 3. Corporate purpose
The Bank's purpose is to carry out all kinds of activities, operations, acts, contracts and services within the banking business or directly or indirectly related to it, which are permitted or not prohibited by the provisions in force and supplementary activities.
Its corporate purpose also includes the acquisition, possession, use and disposal of securities, public offering of acquisition and sale of securities, as well as all types of holdings in any entity or company.

TITLE II
SHARE CAPITAL. SHARES. SHAREHOLDERS
Chapter One.
Share Capital
Article 5. Share capital
The Bank's share capital is TWO BILLION, EIGHT HUNDRED SIXTY MILLION, FIVE HUNDRED NINETY THOUSAND, SEVEN HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX EUROS AND TWENTY EURO CENTS (EUR 2,860,590,786.20), represented by FIVE BILLION, EIGHT HUNDRED THIRTY-SEVEN MILLION, NINE HUNDRED FORTY THOUSAND, THREE HUNDRED EIGHTY (5,837,940,380) shares, each with a nominal value of FORTY-NINE EURO CENTS (EUR 0.49), all of the same class and series, fully subscribed and paid up.

Article 6. Capital increase or reduction
The Bank's share capital may be increased or reduced by resolution of the General Shareholders' Meeting, without prejudice to the provisions of article 30, paragraphs c) and d) of these Bylaws.
The share capital may be increased by issuing new shares or by increasing the nominal value of existing shares. In both cases, the capital increase may be charged to new monetary or non-monetary contributions to corporate equity, including the provision of credits against the Company, or to profits or reserves already included in the most recent approved balance sheet.
In the case of share capital increases through the issuance of new shares, whether ordinary or preference, charged to monetary contributions, shareholders will be entitled to subscribe a number of shares proportional to the nominal value of the shares they hold, within the period granted to this effect by the directors of the Company, which will be no less than fifteen days from the publication of the announcement of the offer of subscription to the new shares in the Official Gazette of the Commercial Registry.
The pre-emptive subscription right will be transferable under the same conditions as the shares from which it derives. In the case of share capital increases charged to reserves, the same rule will apply to the rights of free allocation of the new shares.
The pre-emptive subscription right will not apply when the capital increase is due to the absorption of another company or of all or part of the split-off assets of another company or the conversion of bonds into shares.
In cases where the interest of the Company so requires, the General Shareholders' Meeting, when deciding on the capital increase, may agree upon, in line with the legally established requirements, the total or partial elimination of the pre-emptive subscription right.
Chapter Two.
Shares
Article 7. Representation of shares
The shares will be represented by book entries, subject to the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act and other applicable provisions.
Article 8. Registration of shares
The shares, as well as their transfer and the constitution of rights in rem or any other kind of encumbrances thereon, will be recorded in the corresponding Accounting Register, in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act and concordant provisions.
Nevertheless, based on the principle of registered form that governs the Bank's shares, the company will maintain its own register of shareholders for the purposes and with the effectiveness attributed to it in each case by current regulations. To this end, should the formal status of a shareholder correspond to persons or entities that, in accordance with their own legislation, hold said status by means of a fiduciary relationship, trust or any other equivalent title, the Company may require the aforementioned persons or entities to communicate to it the beneficial owners of said shares and any acts of transfer or encumbrance thereof.
Article 9. Outstanding disbursements
Where any shares are not paid up in full, the shareholder must proceed to pay the outstanding portion when determined by the Board of Directors, within a maximum period of five years from the date of the resolution of the share capital increase. The payment method and other relevant circumstances will be subject to the provisions of the resolution of the share capital increase.
This English version is a translation of the original in Spanish for information purposes only.
In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish original will prevail.

Those concerned will be notified of the requirement for payment of outstanding disbursements, or it will be announced in the Official Gazette of the Commercial Registry. There must be a minimum of one month between the date of sending the communication or the announcement and the payment date.
The shareholder in default of the payment of outstanding disbursements shall not exercise their voting right. The amount of their shares will be deducted from the share capital for the calculation of the quorum. The shareholder in default will not be entitled to receive dividends, nor pre-emptive subscription to new shares, nor convertible bonds.
Should the period established for payment elapse without the payment being made, the Bank may, depending on the case and in light of the nature of the disbursement not made, either demand compliance with the payment obligation, including payment of legal interest and the loss and damage caused by the delay, or dispose of the shares in default on the account and risk of the defaulting shareholder. In this case, the disposal of the shares will be verified by a member of the official secondary market on which they were admitted to trade, or alternatively by the certifying officer, and will entail, if appropriate, the replacement of the original share certificate by a duplicate.
The proceeds of the sale, as may be the case, after deducting expenses, will enter the Bank's possession and they will be allocated to cover the overdraft of the cancelled shares. Should there be any surplus, it will be delivered to the holder.
If the sale cannot take place, the share will be redeemed, with the consequent share capital reduction, leaving the amounts already paid as profits for the Company.
Should the partially paid shares be transferred, the acquiring shareholder will be jointly liable for the payment of the outstanding amount, together with all the preceding transferors, at the choice of the Board of Directors. The transferors will be liable for a term of three years from the date of the respective transfer.
The provisions of this article will not prevent the Bank from using any of the means provided for in the applicable legislation against defaulting shareholders.
Article 10. Multiple ownership
All shares are indivisible. Where, as a result of inheritance, legacy or any other title, the ownership of a share is vested in two or more persons, said persons, without prejudice to the provisions of article 24 of these Bylaws, must appoint one person to exercise the shareholder rights and will be jointly liable to the Company with respect to all obligations arising from their status as shareholders. If they do reach an agreement for this appointment or do not give notice thereof to the Company, the right of representation will be deemed to be attributed to the person with the largest portion. Should all portions be equal, the appointment will be made by the Bank by the means of drawing lots.
The same rule will apply to other cases of joint ownership of rights on the shares.
Article 11. Transfer of shares
The transfer of shares in the Company, which will be free, will be performed by book transfer. The recording of the transfer in the accounting register in favour of the acquirer will have the same effects as the transfer of securities.
The legitimisation for the transfer and exercise of the rights arising from the shares may be evidenced by showing the corresponding certificate issued by the entity or agency responsible for the accounting register in which the shares are registered.

In the event of discrepancy, the Spanish original will prevail.

Article 12. Theft, misappropriation, misplacement or destruction of certificates issued by the accounting register
In the event of theft, misappropriation, misplacement or destruction of the certificates evidencing the status of shareholder, for the issuance of new certificates to replace the original copies, the legislation applicable to the system of representation of securities by book entries will apply.
Article 13. Non-voting shares
The Company may issue shares with no voting rights within the legally established limits. Their holders will be entitled to receive a minimum annual dividend, fixed or variable, as resolved by the General Meeting and/or the Board of Directors at the time of deciding to issue the shares. Once the minimum dividend has been agreed, holders of non-voting shares will be entitled to the same dividend as corresponds to ordinary shares. Where there are distributable profits, the Company is required to agree the distribution of the aforementioned minimum dividend. If there are no distributable profits or insufficient amounts thereof, the unpaid part of the minimum dividend will or will not be accumulated in the terms agreed upon by the General Meeting at the time of deciding to issue the shares.
Holders of non-voting shares may exercise the pre-emptive subscription right in the event that this be resolved by the General Shareholders' Meeting and/or the Board of Directors at the time of issuing shares or convertible bonds. Recovery of voting rights must be resolved at the same time.
Article 13 bis. Redeemable shares
The Company may issue shares that are redeemable at the request of the issuing company, the holders of said shares or both, for a nominal amount not exceeding one quarter of the share capital. The resolution of the issue will set the conditions for the exercise of the right of redemption. If the aforementioned right is attributed exclusively to the issuing company, it may not be exercised within three years of the issuance.
Redeemable shares must be fully paid up at the time of subscription.
Redemption of redeemable shares must be charged to profits or free reserves or with the proceeds of a new share issue resolved by the General Meeting or, where appropriate, the Board of Directors, for the purpose of financing the redemption transaction. If the redemption of these shares is charged to profits or free reserves, the Company must constitute a reserve for the amount of the nominal value of the redeemed shares. If the redemption is not charged to profits or free reserves or with the issue of new shares, it may only be carried out under the requirements established for the reduction of the share capital by the refund of contributions.
Article 13 ter. Privileged shares
The Company may issue shares that confer some privilege over ordinary shares under the legally established terms and conditions, complying with the formalities prescribed for amending the Bylaws.
Chapter Three.
Shareholders
Article 14. General principles
Shareholders' rights and obligations, their content and scope, limits and conditions, will be governed by the provisions of these Bylaws and, where applicable, by current regulations.
The ownership of one or more shares will imply that the shareholder accepts these Bylaws and the resolutions of the General Shareholders' Meeting and of the Board of Directors, without prejudice to the legally established right to challenge.

Article 19. Categories of General Meetings
General Shareholders' Meetings may be annual or extraordinary. The Annual General Meeting, called as such, will necessarily meet within the first six months of each financial year to approve, where necessary, the corporate management and the financial statements for the previous financial year and resolve on the allocation of results. It will also be able to resolve on any other matters on the agenda or allowed by law, within the scope of its powers, provided that the General Shareholders' Meeting is constituted with the number of shareholders and the percentage of capital required by law or the Bylaws in each case.
Any General Meeting other than the one provided for in the previous paragraph will be considered an extraordinary General Meeting.
Article 20. Calling of Meetings
General Shareholders' Meetings will be called at the initiative of the Company's Board of Directors whenever it deems it necessary or advisable for the corporate interest, and in any case on the dates or within the periods determined by law and these Bylaws.
The Board of Directors must also call a General Meeting if requested by one or more shareholders representing at least three percent of the share capital, expressly stating the matters to be covered. In this event, the General Meeting must be called so that it is held within the legally established period from the date on which the Board of Directors is served duly attested notice to call it. The agenda must include the matters to which the request referred.
Likewise, in the period and form established by law, shareholders representing at least three percent of the share capital may request the publication of a supplement to the calling of an Annual General Shareholders' Meeting, including one or more items on the agenda in the call, provided that the new items are accompanied by substantiation or, as appropriate, a substantiated proposed resolution, and submit substantiated proposals for resolutions on matters already included or that should be included in the agenda of a General Shareholders' Meeting already called.
Article 21. Notice of the calling and format of the Meeting

The date on which the General Meeting will be held at second calling may also be stated in the notice.
At least twenty-four hours must elapse between the Meetings’ first and second calling.
The Board of Directors may consider the technical means and legal basis that enable and guarantee remote attendance at the General Meeting, and assess, when calling each General Meeting, the possibility of organising attendance at the meeting by remote means.
Additionally, where permitted by law and where extraordinary circumstances so advise, the Board of Directors may resolve to call virtual-only General Meetings, without in-person attendance of shareholders or their proxies, indicating, when calling the meeting, the means and conditions for remote attendance, as envisaged, where applicable, in the law and the General Meeting Regulations.
Article 22. Place of the Meeting
Notwithstanding legal provisions relating to universal General Meetings, General Meetings will be held in the municipal district where the Company has its registered office, on the day indicated in the calling, and their sessions may be extended for one or more consecutive days at the proposal of the Board of Directors or at the request of a number of shareholders representing at least one quarter of the capital present at the General Meeting. General Meetings may also be transferred to a place other than that indicated in the calling, within the same municipal district, with the knowledge of those present, in the event of force majeure.
Article 23. Right of attendance
Holders of 500 or more shares whose ownership is registered in the respective accounting register at least five days before the day on which the General Meeting is scheduled, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act and other applicable provisions, and who conserve at least that number of shares until the Meeting is held, may attend both annual and extraordinary General Meetings.
Holders of fewer shares may group together to make up at least that number, appointing a representative.
Each shareholder entitled to attend who so requests will be given a personalised attendance card, indicating how many shares they hold.
Executives, managers and staff of the Company and its investee companies may attend. Where deemed appropriate, the Chair of the General Meeting may authorise any other person to attend, though the General Meeting reserves the right to revoke said authorisation.
Article 24. Proxies for the General Meeting
Any shareholder entitled to attend may be represented at the General Meeting by another person, who need not necessarily be a shareholder.
Proxy must be conferred specifically for each General Meeting, using the proxy form established by the Company, which will be recorded on the attendance card. A single shareholder may not be represented at the Meeting by more than one proxy, except under the circumstances provided in law for intermediary entities.
Likewise, the proxy may be conferred by means of remote communication that comply with the requirements laid down by law.

Proxies conferred by a fiduciary or apparent shareholder will be rejected.
Article 25. Quorum
General Meetings, both annual and extraordinary, will be validly constituted by the minimum quorum of shareholders required by the prevailing legislation in force at any given time for the various matters or business included on the agenda.
The above paragraph notwithstanding, in order to adopt resolutions regarding any change to the corporate purpose, transformation, total spin-off or dissolution of the Company and amendment of the second paragraph of this article, two thirds of the subscribed voting capital must attend the General Meeting on first calling, or 60% of said capital on second calling.
Article 26. Chair and Secretary of the General Meeting
The Chair of the Board of Directors will act as Chair of the General Shareholders' Meeting. Should this not be possible, the responsibility will fall upon the Deputy Chair. Should there be several Deputy Chairs, the order established by the Board of Directors at the time of their appointment will be followed. Otherwise, age seniority will prevail. Should none of the above be possible, the Board of Directors will appoint a director to chair the Meeting. The Secretary of the Board of Directors will act as Secretary of the General Meeting. Should this not be possible, the responsibility will fall upon the Deputy Secretary. Should both be absent, the Board of Directors will appoint another Secretary.
Article 27. List of attendees
Once the Panel (Mesa), which will comprise the Chair and the Secretary of the Meeting, is constituted, the list of attendees will be drawn up. This will report the number of shareholders in attendance with voting rights, the number attending personally or by proxy, and the percentage of share capital that they all represent. For this task, the Panel may use two scrutineers appointed by the Board of Directors prior to the General Meeting from amongst the shareholders. The list of attendees will be included at the beginning of the Minutes or attached thereto by means of an appendix signed by the Secretary and approved by the Chair. It may also be included in the form of a computer file or other digital medium, in which case the appropriate identification certificate signed by the Secretary and approved by the Chair will be affixed to the sealed cover.
The Chair of the Meeting will adjudge whether or not the requirements have been met for the Meeting to be duly constituted, will resolve any doubts, clarifications or complaints relating to the list of attendees, proxies or representatives: examining, accepting or rejecting new proposals on the agenda items, pursuant to prevailing legal provisions; guiding discussions, organising, ordering, limiting and cutting short the contributions. The Chair is generally empowered to take any measures necessary to best organise and run the Meeting.
Article 28. Content of Meetings
Only matters that are specifically indicated in the calling of the Meeting may be dealt with at annual and extraordinary General Shareholders' Meetings, except as provided for by law.
Article 29. Shareholders' right to information
Until the fifth day prior to the Meeting, shareholders may request from the Board of Directors, regarding matters on the agenda, the information or clarification they deem necessary, or submit written questions they deem to be pertinent. Shareholders may also request written clarification on the publicly accessible information that the Company has filed with the National Securities Market Commission since the last General Meeting and concerning the auditor's report.
The directors are obliged to provide the information requested pursuant to the above paragraph, in writing, up until the day on which the General Meeting is held.

On the day on which the General Meeting is to be held, shareholders may verbally request any information or clarification they deem appropriate regarding the matters on the agenda, as well as any clarification they deem necessary regarding the publicly accessible information submitted by the Company to the National Securities Market Commission since the last General Meeting and concerning the auditor's report. Should it not be possible to satisfy the shareholder's right to information at that time, the directors will be obliged to provide the requested information, in writing and within seven days following the termination of the Meeting.
Directors will be obliged to provide the information requested under the provisions of this article, unless the information is unnecessary for upholding of the rights of the shareholder, or there are objective reasons to consider that it could be used for non-company purposes or if its release would harm the Company or its associated companies.
No information will be withheld when the request is backed by shareholders representing, at least, one quarter of the share capital.
Article 30. Powers of the General Meeting
The General Shareholders' Meeting is vested with the following powers:
a.To amend the Bylaws, as well as confirm or rectify the Board of Directors' interpretation thereof.

d.To confer authority on the Board of Directors to increase the share capital in accordance with legal provisions. When the General Meeting confers such authority, it may also grant the power to exclude pre-emptive subscription rights relating to issuances of shares that are subject to such authority, pursuant to the terms and the requirements laid down by law.

e.To confer authority on the Board of Directors to amend the nominal value of shares representing the share capital, redrafting article 5 of the Bylaws.

Chapter Two.
The Board of Directors
Article 33. Nature
The Board of Directors is the natural body for the representation, administration, management and oversight of the Company.
Article 33 bis. Remuneration
Directors will be remunerated.
Remuneration of directors in such capacity will comprise a fixed annual allocation, which will be distributed by the Board of Directors in the way it so determines, taking into account the conditions applicable to each director and the roles and responsibilities assigned thereto by the Board and their membership of the various Committees, which may result in different remuneration amounts for each director. The Board is also responsible for determining the frequency and method of payment of this allocation, which may include insurance and pension systems established at any given time.
The amount of the annual allocation to the Board of Directors will be the amount determined by the General Meeting, which will remain in force until the General Meeting resolves to amend it, although the Board of Directors may reduce this amount in those financial years in which it deems it appropriate.
In addition to this allocation, director remuneration may also comprise the delivery of shares or stock options in relation thereto, or amounts indexed to the value of the shares. The application of this form of remuneration will require the approval of the General Meeting, specifying, where appropriate, the number of shares to be delivered, the strike price of the stock options, the value of the shares indexed and the duration of the remuneration system in question.
