Center, 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, USA). Such supplement or new Prospectus will
also be viewable on, and obtainable free of charge from, the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange
(www.bourse.lu).
The Notes may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, and neither this document nor any other offering
material may be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in
compliance with any applicable laws or regulations.
This Prospectus has been prepared on the basis that, except to the extent sub-paragraph (ii) below may apply,
any offer of Notes in any Member State of the EEA which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (which
expression shall, for the purposes of this paragraph, include all amendments thereto, including Directive
2010/73/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of November 24, 2010, to the extent
implemented in such Member State) (each, a "Relevant Member State") will be made pursuant to an
exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in that Relevant Member State, from the
requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. Accordingly any person making or intending to
make an offer in that Relevant Member State of Notes which are the subject of an offering/placement
contemplated in this Prospectus as completed by Final Terms in relation to the offer of those Notes may only
do so (i) in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to publish a prospectus
pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the
Prospectus Directive, in each case, in relation to such offer, or (ii) if a prospectus for such offer has been
approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in
another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State and
(in either case) published, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, provided that any such prospectus
has subsequently been completed by Final Terms which specify that offers may be made other than pursuant

3

to Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State and such offer is made in the
period beginning and ending on the dates specified for such purpose in such prospectus or relevant Final
Terms, as applicable and the Issuer has consented in writing to the use of such prospectus for the purpose of
such offer.
Except to the extent sub-paragraph (ii) above may apply, neither the Issuers nor the Guarantor nor any
Dealer have authorised, nor do they authorise, the making of any offer of Notes in circumstances in which an
obligation arises for the Issuers or the Guarantor or any Dealer to publish or supplement a prospectus for
such offer.
Each Dealer and/or further financial intermediary subsequently reselling or finally placing Notes to be issued
under the Programme may be entitled to use this Prospectus as set out in the section entitled "Consent to the
Use of this Prospectus".
Tranches of Notes may be rated or unrated. Where a Tranche of Notes is rated, such credit rating and the
respective rating agency will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Any credit ratings assigned to the
Notes are not recommendations to purchase, hold or sell the Notes inasmuch as such ratings do not comment
as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. There is no assurance that these ratings will remain
in effect for any given period of time or that the ratings will not be revised or withdrawn entirely in the future
by the respective rating organizations if in their judgment circumstances so warrant.
Any credit ratings assigned to the Notes may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to structure
and other factors on the value of the Notes. In addition, real or anticipated changes in any credit ratings
assigned to the Notes will generally affect the market value of the Notes.
Any credit ratings in respect of the Notes or an Issuer are, in respect of an offer or invitation for the issue,
sale or purchase of Notes in Australia (including an offer or invitation which is received by a person in
Australia), for disclosure or distribution only to a person who is not a "retail client" within the meaning of
section 761G of the Corporations Act but is a sophisticated investor, professional investor or other investor
in respect of whom disclosure is not required under Parts 6D.2 or 7.9 of the Corporations Act and, in all
cases, who is otherwise permitted to receive credit ratings in accordance with applicable law in any
jurisdiction in which the person may be located. Anyone who is not such a person is not entitled to receive
this Prospectus and anyone who receives this Prospectus must not distribute it to any person who is not
entitled to receive it.
IN CONNECTION WITH THE ISSUE OF ANY TRANCHE OF NOTES, THE DEALER OR
DEALERS (IF ANY) NAMED AS THE STABILISING MANAGER(S) (OR PERSONS ACTING ON
BEHALF OF ANY STABILISING MANAGER(S)) IN THE APPLICABLE FINAL TERMS MAY
OVER-ALLOT NOTES OR EFFECT TRANSACTIONS (IN EACH CASE OUTSIDE AUSTRALIA
AND NOT ON A FINANCIAL MARKET OPERATED IN AUSTRALIA) WITH A VIEW TO
SUPPORTING THE MARKET PRICE OF THE NOTES AT A LEVEL HIGHER THAN THAT
WHICH MIGHT OTHERWISE PREVAIL. HOWEVER, THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT THE
STABILISING MANAGER(S) (OR PERSONS ACTING ON BEHALF OF A STABILISING
MANAGER) WILL UNDERTAKE STABILISATION ACTION. ANY STABILISATION ACTION
MAY BEGIN ON OR AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH ADEQUATE PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF
THE TERMS OF THE OFFER OF THE RELEVANT TRANCHE OF NOTES IS MADE AND, IF
BEGUN, MAY BE ENDED AT ANY TIME, BUT IT MUST END NO LATER THAN THE
EARLIER OF 30 DAYS AFTER THE ISSUE DATE OF THE RELEVANT TRANCHE OF NOTES
AND 60 DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF THE ALLOTMENT OF THE RELEVANT TRANCHE OF
NOTES. ANY STABILISATION ACTION OR OVER-ALLOTMENT MUST BE CONDUCTED BY
THE RELEVANT STABILISING MANAGER(S) (OR PERSONS ACTING ON BEHALF OF ANY
STABILISING MANAGER(S)) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND RULES.

expressly or implicitly been assumed or described in these forward-looking statements. Each of the relevant
Issuer's business is also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause a forward-looking
