Table of Contents
The notes have not been and will not be registered under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan, or the FIEA, and are subject
to the Act on Special Measures Concerning Taxation of Japan, or the Special Taxation Measures Act. The notes may not be offered or sold in
Japan, to any person resident in Japan, or to others for reoffering or resale directly or indirectly in Japan or to a person resident in Japan, for
Japanese securities law purposes (including any corporation or other entity organized under the laws of Japan) except pursuant to an exemption
from the registration requirements of, and otherwise in compliance with, the FIEA and any other applicable laws, regulations and governmental
guidelines of Japan. In addition, the notes are not, as part of the distribution by the underwriters under the applicable underwriting agreement at any
time, to be directly or indirectly offered or sold to, or for the benefit of, any person other than a beneficial owner that is, (i) for Japanese tax
purposes, neither an individual resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation, nor an individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation
that in either case is a person having a special relationship with the issuer of the notes as described in Article 6, Paragraph (4) of the Special
Taxation Measures Act, or a specially-related person of the issuer or (ii) a Japanese financial institution, designated in Article 6, Paragraph (9) of
the Special Taxation Measures Act.
Interest payments on the notes will be subject to Japanese withholding tax unless it is established that the notes are held by or for the account
of a beneficial owner that is (i) for Japanese tax purposes, neither an individual resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation, nor an individual
non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation that in either case is a specially-related person of the issuer, (ii) a Japanese financial
institution designated in Article 6, Paragraph (9) of the Special Taxation Measures Act which complies with the requirement for tax exemption
under that paragraph or (iii) a Japanese public corporation, financial institution or financial instruments business operator described in Article 3-3,
Paragraph (6) of the Special Taxation Measures Act which complies with the requirement for tax exemption under that paragraph.
Interest payments on the notes to an individual resident of Japan, to a Japanese corporation (except as described in the preceding paragraph),
or to an individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation that in either case is a specially-related person of the issuer will be subject
to deduction in respect of Japanese income tax at a rate of 15.315% of the amount of such interest.
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, or the 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, or MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC, as amended, where that customer would not qualify as a
professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC.
Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, or 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, or 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.

either case is a person having a special relationship with the issuer of the notes as described in Article 6, Paragraph (4) of the Special Taxation
Measures Act or (ii) a Japanese financial institution, designated in Article 6, Paragraph (9) of the Special Taxation Measures Act.
