where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii ) not a
qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by
Regulation (EU) No. 1286/2014 (the "PRI Ps Regulation") for of ering or sel ing the Notes or otherwise making them available to
retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or sel ing the Notes or otherwise making them available to any
retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA; (ii ) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU)
No. 2017/1129 as it forms part of domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document

Regulation") for offering or sel ing the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared

under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined

manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

investors in the Notes should inform themselves of, and comply with, any applicable laws, regulations or regulatory guidance with
respect to any resale of the Notes (or any beneficial interests therein), including the Regulations. By purchasing, or making or
accepting an offer to purchase any Notes (or a beneficial interest in the Notes) from the Issuer and/or the Managers each
prospective investor represents, warrants, agrees with and undertakes to the Issuer and each of the Managers that:
(1)
(A)
it is not a retail client (as defined in MiFID II, UK Delegated Regulation or COBS); and

(B)
it is not a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (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;
(2)
whether or not it is subject to the Regulations, it wil not:

(A)
sel or offer the Notes (or any beneficial interest therein) to retail clients (as defined in MiFID II, UK Delegated
Regulation or COBS); or

(B)
communicate (including the distribution of the Prospectus) or approve an invitation or inducement to participate in,
acquire or underwrite the Notes (or any beneficial interests therein) where that invitation or inducement is addressed
to or disseminated in such a way that it is likely to be received by a retail client (in each case within the meaning of
the Regulations);

and in sel ing or offering the Notes or making or approving communications relating to the Notes it may not rely on the
limited exemptions set out in COBS;
(3)
if it is a person in Hong Kong, it is a 'professional investor' as defined in the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571) of
Hong Kong (the "SFO") and any rules made under the SFO; and
(4)
it wil at al times comply with al applicable laws, regulations and regulatory guidance (whether inside or outside the EEA or
the UK) relating to the promotion, offering, distribution and/or sale of the Notes (or any beneficial interests therein), including
(without limitation) MiFID II, UK Delegated Regulation or the UK FCA Handbook and any other such laws, regulations and
regulatory guidance as to determining the appropriateness and/or suitability of an investment in the Notes (or any beneficial
interests therein) by investors in any relevant jurisdiction.
Each prospective investor further acknowledges that:
(1)
the identified target market for the Notes (for the purposes of the product governance obligations in MiFID II or UK
Delegated Regulation), 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, is eligible counterparties and professional clients
only;
(2)
no key information document (KID) under the PRIIPs Regulation has been prepared and therefore offering or sel ing the
Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation;
and
(3)
no key information document (KID) under the UK PRIIPs Regulation has been prepared and therefore offering or sel ing the
Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
Where acting as agent on behalf of a disclosed or undisclosed client when purchasing, or making or accepting an offer to purchase,
any Notes (or any beneficial interests therein) from the Issuer and/or the Managers the foregoing representations, warranties,
agreements and undertakings wil be given by and be binding upon both the agent and its underlying client.

BENCHMARKS DISCLOSURE STATEMENT ON REGISTRATION OF BENCHMARK
