Any information or representation not so contained or incorporated by reference herein must not be relied upon as having been authorised by, or on behalf of, the Issuer or the Joint Lead Managers.

Prospective investors should read carefully the section entitled "Risk Factors" set out in this Prospectus prior to any investment in the Notes.

The distribution of this Prospectus and the offering or the sale of the Notes in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law or regulation. The Issuer and the Joint Lead Managers do not represent that this Prospectus may be lawfully distributed, or that any Notes may be lawfully offered or sold, in compliance with any applicable registration or other requirements in any such jurisdiction, or pursuant to an exemption available thereunder, or assume any responsibility for facilitating any such distribution, offering or sale. In particular, no action has been taken by the Issuer or the Joint Lead Managers which is intended to permit an offering of any Note to retail investors or distribution of this Prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. Accordingly, no Note may be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither this Prospectus nor any offering material may be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations. Persons into whose possession this Prospectus comes are required by the Issuer and the Joint Lead Managers to inform themselves about and to observe any such restrictions. For a further description of certain restrictions on offers and sales of Notes and distribution of this Prospectus and of any other offering material relating to the Notes, see "Subscription and Sale" below.

Prospective purchasers and sellers of the Notes should be aware that they may be required to pay taxes or other documentary charges or duties in accordance with the laws and practices of the country where the Notes are transferred or other jurisdictions (including as a result of change in law). Prospective investors are also advised

2

to ask for their own tax adviser's advice on their individual taxation with respect to the acquisition, holding, sale and redemption of the Notes.

A number of Member States of the European Union are currently negotiating to introduce a financial transactions tax ("FTT") in the scope of which transactions in the Notes may fall. The scope of any such tax is still uncertain as well as any potential timing of implementation. If the currently discussed text or any similar tax is adopted, transactions in the Notes would be subject to higher costs, and the liquidity of the market for the Notes may be diminished. Prospective holders of the Notes are advised to seek their own professional advice in relation to the FTT.

Each prospective investor must determine based on its own independent review and such professional advice as it deems appropriate under the circumstances, that its acquisition of the Notes is fully consistent with its financial needs, objectives and conditions, complies and is fully consistent with all investment policies, guidelines and restrictions applicable to it and is a fit, proper and suitable investment for it, notwithstanding the clear and substantial risks inherent in investing in or holding the Notes. In particular, each prospective investor should:

  1. have sufficient knowledge and experience to properly assess the Notes, the merits and risks of investing in such Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus;
  2. have access to and knowledge of appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its particular financial situation and sensitivity to the risk, an investment in the Notes and the impact the Notes might have on its overall investment portfolio;
  3. have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all the risks of an investment in the Notes, including any currency exchange risk when the currency in which payment of principal or interests is to be made is different from that of the prospective investor;
  4. understand thoroughly the terms of the Notes and related risks and be familiar with the behaviour of the financial markets and any relevant indices;
  5. be able to assess (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible changes in the economy, rates of interest or in other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks; and
  6. consult its own advisers as to legal, tax and related aspects of an investment in the Notes.

The investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent (i) Notes are legal investments for it, (ii) Notes can be used as collateral for various types of borrowings and (iii) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any Notes. Financial institutions should consult their legal advisors or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate treatment of Notes under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.

Neither the Notes nor the long-term debt of the Issuer is rated. The assessment of the Issuer's ability to comply with its payment obligations under the Notes is made more complex for investors. One or more independent credit rating agencies may assign credit ratings to the Notes on an unsolicited basis. A credit rating may be revised or withdrawn by the rating agency at any time, without prior notice. Any such revision or withdrawal may negatively affect the trading price of the Noes and hence investors may lose part of their investment.

Prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors - The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the "EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of the following: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU, as amended ("MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2016/97/EU (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

PROHIBITION of sales to UK retail investors - the Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom ("UK"). for these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of article 2 of Regulation (EU) no 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (withdrawal) act 2018 ("EUWA"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the FSMA and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) no 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) no 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPS Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPS Regulation.

MIFID II product governance / Professional investors and eligible counterparties only type of clients - Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes, taking into account the five categories referred to in item 18 of the Guidelines published by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) on 5 February 2018 has led to the conclusion, in relation to the type of clients criterion only, that: (i) the type of clients to whom the Notes are targeted is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration each manufacturer's type of clients assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' type of clients assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") or with any securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction of the United States. The Notes are being offered outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S") and may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

In this Prospectus, references to "", "EURO" or to "euro" are to the lawful currency of the member states of the European Union that adopt the single currency in accordance with the Treaty on the functioning of the European Union, as amended.
