Important Notices
IMPORTANT NOTICES
Approval and passporting under the EU Prospectus Directive
Application has been made to the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the "CSSF"),
which is the Luxembourg competent authority for the purpose of the Prospectus Directive for approval of this
Prospectus, as a prospectus issued in compliance with the Prospectus Directive and relevant implementing
measures in Luxembourg for the purpose of giving information with regard to the Securities. This Prospectus
constitutes a prospectus for the purposes of Article 5.3 of the Prospectus Directive relating to the Securities, and
should be read together with any documents incorporated by reference within it.
The Issuer will apply for the Securities to be (i) admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OMX Stockholm Stock
Exchange and (ii) listed on the Official List and admitted to trading on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (each a
regulated market for the purposes of Directive 2004/39/EC on Markets in Financial Instruments). This
Prospectus will be published on the websites of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu) and the
Issuer (www.gspip.info). On the approval of this Prospectus as a prospectus for the purpose of Article 5.3 of the
Prospectus Directive by the CSSF, notification of such approval will be made to the Swedish Financial
Supervisory Authority (Sw. Finansinspektionen) in its capacity as the competent authority of the Kingdom of
Sweden.
CSSF disclaimer
Pursuant to Article 7(7) of the Luxembourg Law on Prospectuses for Securities dated July 10, 2005 (as
amended), by approving this Prospectus, the CSSF gives no undertakings as to the economic and financial
characteristics of the Securities or the quality or solvency of the Issuer.
Credit ratings
The credit ratings of GSI1 referred to in this Prospectus have been issued by Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch"), Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill
Companies, Inc. ("S&P"), none of which entities is established in the European Union or registered under
1 The information for this rating has been extracted from information made available by each rating agency referred to
below. The Issuer confirms that such information has been accurately reproduced and that, so far as it is aware, and is able to
ascertain from information published by such ratings agencies, no facts have been omitted which would render the
reproduced information inaccurate or misleading.
As at the date of this Prospectus the ratings for GSI were:
Short-term debt:
Fitch, Inc. rating was F1: An 'F1' rating indicates the highest short-term credit quality and the strongest intrinsic capacity for
timely payment of financial commitments; may have an added '+' to denote any exceptionally strong credit feature.
Moody's rating was P-1: 'P-1' Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-1 have a superior ability to repay short-term
debt obligations.
S&P rating was A-1: A short-term obligation rated 'A-1' is rated in the highest category by Standard & Poor's. The obligor's
capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are designated
with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitment on these obligations is
extremely strong.
Long-term debt:
Fitch, Inc. rating was A: An 'A' rating indicates high credit quality and denotes expectations of low default risk. The capacity
for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse
business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.
Moody's rating was A1: Obligations rated 'A' are considered upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk. Note:
Moody's appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from 'Aa' through 'Caa'. The modifier
1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range
ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category.
S&P rating was A+: An obligation rated 'A' is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances
and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its financial
commitment on the obligation is still strong. The ratings from 'AA' to 'CCC' may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or
minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009, as amended, including by Regulation (EU) No. 513/2011 (the "CRA
Regulation"), and as further amended. In general, European regulated investors are restricted from using a
rating for regulatory purposes if such rating is not either (1) issued or validly endorsed by a credit rating agency
established in the European Union and registered with the European Securities and Markets Authority
("ESMA") under the CRA Regulation or (2) issued by a credit rating agency established outside the European
Union which is certified under the CRA Regulation.
The EU affiliates of Fitch, Moody's and S&P are registered under the CRA Regulation. The ESMA has
