This document constitutes the Final Terms relating to the issue of Notes described herein. Terms used
herein shall be deemed to be defined as such for the purposes of the Conditions set forth in the Base Prospectus
dated 30 August 2019 as supplemented by the supplemental base prospectus dated 30 August 2019 (as so
supplemented, the "Base Prospectus"). These Final Terms contain the final terms of the Notes and certain

Base Prospectus. Terms defined in the Base Prospectus have the same meaning when used herein.
In connection with this issue, Mizuho International plc (the "Stabilising Manager") or any person acting
for the Stabilising Manager may over-allot or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of
the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period. However, there may

if commenced, may be discontinued at any time and must be brought to an end after a limited time.
Save as disclosed herein or in the Base Prospectus (including any documents incorporated by reference
therein), there has been no significant change in the financial or trading position of the Issuer, or the Issuer

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 ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a
person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive
2014/65/EU ("MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that
customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii)
any person who is not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129. Consequently, no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (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.
MIFID II PRODUCT GOVERNANCE / PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS AND ECPS ONLY
TARGET MARKET Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target
market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes 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 the
manufacturers' target market 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' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

Appendix
Paragraph (4) in the section entitled "TAXATION--Japan--Interest and Redemption Gain or Redemption
Loss on Notes--1 Non-resident Investors--1.1 Notes other than Taxable Linked Notes--1.1.1 Interest" in the
Base Prospectus shall be updated and replaced with the below, with the amended sentence being shown below
in underline:
"(4) If an individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation (regardless of whether
it is a specially-related person of the Issuer) is subject to Japanese withholding tax with
respect to interest on the Notes under Japanese tax law, a reduced rate of withholding tax
or exemption from such withholding tax may be available under the relevant income tax
treaty between Japan and the country of tax residence of such individual non-resident of
Japan or non-Japanese corporation. As of the date of this document, Japan has income tax
treaties, conventions or agreements whereby the above-mentioned withholding tax rate is
reduced, generally to 10 per cent. with, inter alia, Australia, Belgium (for interest due and
payable on or before 31 December 2019), Canada, Finland, France, Hong Kong, Ireland,
Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain,
Switzerland and the United States of America (for interest due and payable on or before
31 October 2019). Under the tax treaties between Japan and Austria, Denmark, Germany,
Sweden or the United Kingdom, interest paid to qualified Austrian, Danish, German,
Swedish or United Kingdom residents is generally exempt from Japanese withholding tax.
Japan has also signed amendments to the existing tax treaties with the United States of
America, Spain and Belgium generally exempting interest from Japanese withholding tax
(for Belgium, only for a Belgian enterprise); however, these amending protocols have not
yet entered into force or are not yet applicable (as for the United States of America and
Belgium, the amendment will apply to interest due and payable on or after 1 November
2019 and 1 January 2020, respectively). Under the current income tax treaty between Japan
and the United States of America, certain limited categories of qualified United States
residents receiving interest on the Notes may, subject to compliance with certain
procedural requirements under Japanese law, be fully exempt from Japanese withholding
tax for interest on the Notes. Under the income tax treaties with France, Australia, the
Netherlands and Switzerland, similar exemptions to those provided in the current income
tax treaty between Japan and the United States of America will be available (provided that
no exemption will apply to pension funds in the case of Australia). In order to avail
themselves of such reduced rate of, or exemption from, Japanese withholding tax under
any applicable income tax treaty, individual non-residents of Japan or non-Japanese
corporations which are entitled, under any applicable income tax treaty, to a reduced rate
of, or exemption from, Japanese withholding tax on payment of interest by the Issuer of
the relevant Notes are required to submit an Application Form for Income Tax Convention
regarding Relief from Japanese Income Tax and Special Income Tax for Reconstruction
on Interest (as well as any other required forms and documents) in advance through the
Issuer of the relevant Notes to the relevant tax authority before payment of interest."
