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 incorporated by reference in
the drawdown prospectus to the Notes dated 1 October 2020 (the "Drawdown Prospectus") prepared in relation
to the Notes. These Final Terms contain the final terms of the Notes and must be read in conjunction with the
Drawdown Prospectus and the information incorporated by reference therein. Terms defined in the Base

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
be no obligation on the Stabilising Manager or any agent of the Stabilising Manager to do this. Such stabilising,
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 Drawdown Prospectus (including the documents incorporated by
reference therein), there has been no significant change in the financial or trading position of the Issuer, or the

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA AND 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 European Economic Area ("EEA") or in the United Kingdom (the "UK"). 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 or in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them
available to any retail investor in the EEA or in the UK 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

distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person
subsequently offering, sel ing or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the
ma nufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for
underta king its own ta rget ma rket a ssessment in respect of the Notes (by either a dopting or refining the
ma nufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
