$500,000
Leveraged MSCI EAFE Index-Linked Notes due 2022
The notes do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your notes on the stated maturity date
(February 10, 2022) is based on the performance of the MSCI EAFE Index as measured from the trade date
(October 3, 2014) to and including the determination date (February 3, 2022). If the final index level on the
determination date is greater than the initial index level of 1,792.34, the return on your notes will be positive. If
the final index level is equal to or less than the initial index level, you will receive the face amount of
your notes.
To determine your payment at maturity, we will calculate the index return, which is the percentage increase or
decrease in the final index level from the initial index level. On the stated maturity date, for each $1,000 face
amount of your notes, you will receive an amount in cash equal to:
·
if the index return is positive (the final index level is greater than the initial index level), the sum of
(i) $1,000 plus (ii) the product of (a) $1,000 times (b) 1.15 times (c) the index return; or
·
if the index return is zero or negative (the final index level is equal to or less than the initial index level),
$1,000.
Your investment in the notes involves certain risks, including, among other things, our credit risk. See
page PS-11.
You should read the additional disclosure herein so that you may better understand the terms and risks of your
investment.
The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes were set on the trade date (as
determined by reference to pricing models used by Goldman, Sachs & Co. (GS&Co.) and taking into
account our credit spreads) was equal to approximately $962 per $1,000 face amount, which is less
than the original issue price. The value of your notes at any time will reflect many factors and cannot
be predicted; however, the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which
GS&Co. would initially buy or sell notes (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) and the
value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise equals approximately $995
per $1,000 face amount, which exceeds the estimated value of your notes as determined by reference
to these models. The amount of the excess will decline on a straight line basis over the period from the
trade date through October 5, 2015.

Supplemental discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences: The notes will be treated as debt
instruments subject to the special rules governing contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. Under this treatment, it is the opinion of Sidley Austin LLP that if you are a U.S. individual or
taxable entity, you generally should be required to pay taxes on ordinary income from the notes over their term
based on the comparable yield for the notes. In addition, any gain you may recognize on the sale, exchange or
maturity of the notes will be taxed as ordinary interest income.
