any provision that would oblige the Issuers, the Guarantor or ING Bank N.V. (as provider of the 403
declaration) to gross-up any amounts payable thereunder in the event of any withholding or deduction for or
on account of taxes levied in any jurisdiction.
The Notes and Warrants will be issued on a continuing basis by the relevant Issuer to purchasers thereof,
which, in respect of the Notes, may include any Dealers appointed under the Programme from time to time,
which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis and which may include ING Bank N.V.

determined. Standard & Poor's (Australia) Pty. Ltd. is not established in the European Union and is not
registered under the CRA Regulation.
Other Tranches of Notes and Warrants issued under the Programme may be rated or unrated. Where a Tranche
of Notes or Warrants is rated, such rating will not necessarily be the same as the ratings assigned to the
Programme. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to
suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.
The Issuers may decide to issue Notes or Warrants in a form not contemplated by the various terms and
conditions of the Notes or Warrants, as the case may be, herein. In any such case a supplement to this Base
Prospectus, if appropriate, will be made available which will describe the form of such Notes or Warrants.
