The Programme provides that Securities may be listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on such
other or further stock exchanges or markets as may be agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer.
The Issuer may also issue unlisted Securities and/or Securities not admitted to trading on any market.
The Issuer may agree with any Dealer that Securities may be issued in a form not contemplated by the
applicable Conditions set out herein, in which event a supplement to the Base Prospectus, if appropriate, will
be made available which will describe the effect of the agreement reached in relation to such Securities.
The Securities and, in certain cases, the Entitlement (as defined herein) have not been and will not be
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under any
state securities laws and trading in the Securities has not been approved by the United States Commodity
Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") under the United States Commodity Exchange Act, as amended
(the "Commodity Exchange Act"). The Securities, or interests therein, may not at any time be offered, sold,
resold, traded, pledged, exercised, redeemed, transferred or delivered, directly or indirectly, in the United
States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia), its territories, its possessions and other
areas subject to its jurisdiction (the United States) or directly or indirectly offered, sold, resold, traded,
pledged, exercised, redeemed, transferred or delivered, directly or indirectly, to, or for the account or benefit
of, any person ("US Person") who is (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a
corporation, partnership or other entity organised in or under the laws of the United States or any political
subdivision thereof or which has its principal place of business in the Untied States; (iii) any estate or trust
which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income; (iv) any trust

and if one or more United States trustee have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust; (v)
a pension plan for the employees, officers or principals of a corporation, partnership or other entity described
in (iii) above; (vi) any entity organised principally for passive investment, ten per cent. or more of the
beneficial interests in which are held by persons described in (i) to (v) above if such entity was formed
principally for the purpose of investment by such persons in a commodity pool the operator of which is
exempt from certain requirements of Part 4 of the CFTC's regulations by virtue of its participants being non-
US Persons; or (vii) any other US Person as such term may be defined in Regulation S under the Securities
Act or in regulations adopted under the Commodity Exchange Act.
The Issuer has not registered as an investment company pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the United States Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and the
rules thereunder. Investors in the Securities will be deemed to have made or be required to make certain
representations and warranties in connection with purchasing the Securities.
All payments in respect of the N&C Securities will be made without deduction for or on account of
withholding taxes imposed by any tax jurisdiction unless any such deduction is required by law. In the
event that (i) any such deduction is required and (ii) the relevant N&C Securities are specified as being
"Reference Item Linked N&C Securities" in the applicable Final Terms, the Issuer will not be
required to pay any additional amounts to cover the amounts so deducted.
A holder of a W&C Security must pay all taxes, duties and/or expenses arising from the exercise and
settlement of such W&C Security and/or delivery of the Entitlement, if applicable. The Issuer shall not
be liable for tax, duty, withholding or other payment which may arise as a result of the ownership,
transfer, exercise or enforcement of any W&C Security and all payments will be made subject to any
such tax, duty, withholding or other payment.
For a description of certain further restrictions on offers and sales of the Securities and on the distribution of
this Base Prospectus, see "Offering and Sale" on pages 310-313.

Securities and the extent of their exposure to risks and that they consider the suitability of the relevant
Securities as an investment in the light of their own circumstances and financial condition. Securities
involve a high degree of risk and potential investors should be prepared to sustain a total loss of the
purchase price of their Securities. See "Risk Factors" on pages 18-38.
