2017/1129, the "Luxembourg Law"). The CSSF only approves this Prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness,
comprehensibility and consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Such approval should not be considered as an

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements. A forward-looking statement is a statement that does not
relate to historical facts and events. They are based on analyses or forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts
not yet determinable or foreseeable. These forward-looking statements are identified by the use of terms and phrases such
as "anticipate", "believe", "could", "estimate", "expect", "intend", "may", "plan", "predict", "project", "wil " and similar terms
and phrases, including references and assumptions. This applies, in particular, to statements in this Prospectus containing
information on future earning capacity, plans and expectations regarding the Helaba Group's business and management,
its growth and profitability, and general economic and regulatory conditions and other factors that affect it.
Forward-looking statements in this Prospectus are based on current estimates and assumptions that the Issuer makes to
the best of its present knowledge. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors
which could cause actual results, including Helaba Group's financial condition and results of operations, to differ material y
from and be worse than results that have expressly or implicitly been assumed or described in these forward-looking
statements. Helaba Group's business is also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause a forward-
looking statement, estimate or prediction in this Prospectus to become inaccurate. Accordingly, investors are strongly
advised to read the fol owing sections of this Prospectus: "Risk Factors" and "Description of Landesbank Hessen-Thüringen
Girozentrale". These sections include more detailed descriptions of factors that might have an impact on Helaba Group's
business and the markets in which it operates.

5

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, future events described in this Prospectus may not occur. In addition,
neither the Issuer nor the Dealers assume any obligation, except as required by law, to update any forward-looking
statement or to conform these forward-looking statements to actual events or developments.
ESG Ratings
The Issuer's exposure to Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") risks and the related management arrangements
established to mitigate those risks has been or may be assessed by several agencies, among others, through
Environmental, Social and Governance ratings ("ESG ratings").

ESG ratings may vary amongst ESG ratings agencies as the methodologies used to determine ESG ratings may differ. The
Issuer's ESG ratings are not necessarily indicative of its current or future operating or financial performance, or any future
ability to service the Notes and are only current as of the dates on which they were initially issued. Prospective investors
must determine for themselves the relevance of any such ESG ratings information contained in this Prospectus or elsewhere
in making an investment decision. Furthermore, ESG ratings shall not be deemed to be a recommendation by the Issuer or
any other person to buy, sell or hold the Notes. Currently, the providers of such ESG ratings are not subject to any regulatory
or other similar oversight in respect of their determination and award of ESG ratings. For more information regarding the
assessment methodologies used to determine ESG ratings, please refer to the relevant ratings agency's website (which
website does not form a part of, nor is incorporated by reference in, this Prospectus).

Alternative Performance Measures
Certain financial measures presented in this Prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference are not recognised
financial measures under International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS")
("Alternative Performance Measures") and may therefore not be considered as an alternative to the financial measures
defined in the accounting standards in accordance with general y accepted accounting principles. The Alternative
Performance Measures are intended to supplement investors' understanding of the Helaba Group's financial information by
providing measures which investors, financial analysts and management use to help evaluate the Helaba Group's financial
leverage and operating performance. Special items which the Issuer does not believe to be indicative of ongoing business
performance are excluded from these calculations so that investors can better evaluate and analyse historical and future
business trends on a consistent basis. Definitions of these Alternative Performance Measures may not be comparable to
similar definitions used by other companies and are not a substitute for similar measures according to IFRS.

SUITABILITY

Each potential investor in Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances.
In particular, each potential investor should:
(i)
have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the relevant Notes, the merits
and risks of investing in the relevant Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference into
this Prospectus or any supplement hereto;
(ii)
have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its particular
financial situation and the investment(s) it is considering, an investment in the Notes and the impact the
Notes will have on its overall investment portfolio;
(iii)
have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the relevant
Notes, including where the currency for principal or interest payments is different from the potential
investor's currency;
(iv)
understand thoroughly the terms of the relevant Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of financial
markets;
(v)
be aware that it 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;

6

(vi)
ask for its own tax adviser's advice on its individual taxation with respect to the acquisition, sale and
redemption of the Notes; and
(vii)
be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for economic,
interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks.

THIS PROSPECTUS MAY ONLY BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE FOR WHICH IT HAS BEEN PUBLISHED. THIS
PROSPECTUS AND ANY FINAL TERMS MAY NOT BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF AN OFFER OR SOLICITATION
BY AND TO ANYONE IN ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH OFFER OR SOLICITATION IS NOT AUTHORISED OR
TO ANY PERSON TO WHOM IT IS UNLAWFUL TO MAKE SUCH AN OFFER OR SOLICITATION.

THIS PROSPECTUS, ANY SUPPLEMENTS THERETO AND ANY FINAL TERMS DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER
OR AN INVITATION TO SUBSCRIBE FOR OR PURCHASE ANY OF THE NOTES.
