The bonds will contain provisions regarding acceleration and future modifications to their terms, including "collective action clauses".
Under these provisions, which differ from the terms of Peru's external indebtedness issued prior to August 6, 2015 and which are described

single series of debt securities, more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of such series; (2) with respect to two or more
series of debt securities, if certain "uniformly applicable" requirements are met, more than 75% of the aggregate principal amount of the
outstanding debt securities of all series affected by the proposed modification, taken in the aggregate; or (3) with respect to two or more
series of debt securities, more than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of all series affected by the
proposed modification, taken in the aggregate, and more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of each
series affected by the proposed modification, taken individually.
We will apply to admit the bonds for listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and for trading on the Euro MTF

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We have made forward-looking statements in this prospectus supplement. Forward-looking statements are statements that are
not historical facts. These statements are based on our current plans, estimates, assumptions and projections. Therefore you should not
place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to
update any of them in light of new information or future events.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks. We caution you that many factors could affect the future performance of the
Peruvian economy. These factors include, but are not limited to:
·
external factors, such as:
·
interest rates in financial markets outside Peru;
·
changes in Peru's credit ratings;
·
changes in import tariffs and exchange rates;
·
changes in international commodity prices;
·
recession, low economic growth or economic contraction affecting Peru's trading partners;
·
deterioration in the economic condition of Peru's neighboring countries;
·
a liquidity contraction in the international financial markets; volatility in equity, debt or foreign exchange markets, which
could lead to domestic volatility, declines in foreign direct and portfolio investment and potentially lower international
reserves;
·
international hostilities; and
·
the decisions of international financial institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund, or IMF, the Inter-American
Development Bank, or IADB, the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, or IBRD, the World Bank, or
the Andean Development Corporation, or CAF, regarding the terms of their lending and financial assistance to Peru; and
·
internal factors, such as:
·
deterioration in general economic and business conditions in Peru;
·
social, political or military events in Peru;
·
increase in crime rates;
·
natural events, such as climatic changes, earthquakes and floods;
·
reduction in foreign currency reserves;

·
the ability of the government to enact key economic reforms;
·
higher domestic debt;
·
increased rates of domestic inflation;
·
the level of foreign direct and portfolio investment in Peru; and
·
prevailing Peruvian domestic interest rates.
SOVEREIGN IMMUNITY
Peru is a sovereign state. Consequently, it may be difficult for you to obtain or realize upon judgments of courts in the United
States against Peru. Among other requirements, the execution by a Peruvian court of a judgment ordering payment by Peru of any
principal or interest arising from the bonds will be subject to availability of funds according to the statute passed by the Peruvian
Congress setting forth the budget corresponding to the fiscal year in which such payment is due.
Limitations Imposed by Budget Laws to Satisfy Payments on the Bonds
A final judgment against Peru ordering payment on the bonds is subject to Peruvian budget regulations. Pursuant to the Budget
National System General Law (Ley General del Sistema Nacional de Presupuesto) and the Public Sector Budget Law for Fiscal Year
2016 (Ley de Presupuesto del Sector Público para el Año Fiscal 2016), payments of judgments, arbitral awards, conciliation minutes
or direct treatment agreements are subject to the following process:
·
between 3% and 5% of the budget corresponding to the Ministry of Economy and Finance may be allocated towards
payments and judgments;
·
payments must be made by each governmental entity (in our case, the Ministry of Economy and Finance) from its
respective bank account, taking into account all mandatory priorities;
·
in case the judgment payment orders exceed the 3% threshold, the Ministry of Economy and Finance would pay its
creditors on a pro rata basis; and
·
payment requirements in excess of the 5% threshold, must be included in the budgets approved for the following five
fiscal years.
Enforceability of Judgments
If the payment of any judicial order is not honored by the Ministry of Economy and Finance, a proceeding for the execution of
judicial resolutions may be initiated as provided for in article 688 et. seq. of the Peruvian Civil Procedure Code. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in accordance with section 73 of the Peruvian Political Constitution, public domain assets destined for the public service
and use are inalienable and are not subject to any interest due to possession (prescripción adquisitiva). Public domain assets are a
special form of property that can only be set aside for the public use, a service to the community or national interest. As such, those
assets as well as (i) property used by a diplomatic or consular mission of Peru; (ii) property of a military character and under the
control of a military authority or defense agency of Peru; (iii) public property; (iv) shares of Peruvian public sector entities or shares of
Peruvian private sector entities owned or controlled by Peru or by a Peruvian public sector entity, or revenues collected from the sale
of such shares, to the extent such shares or revenues are exempt by Peruvian law from attachment or execution; or (v) funds deposited
in Peru's accounts held in the Peruvian financial system that constitute public domain property, are neither subject to liens or
encumbrances nor to a judicial attachment. Conversely, assets not set aside for the public domain are subject to the private domain of
the Peruvian government (which includes, among others, the cash deposits of the Peruvian government abroad) and as such may be
encumbered or attached.
For more information, see "Description of the Securities -- Jurisdiction, Consent to Service and Enforceability" in the
accompanying prospectus.
CERTAIN LEGAL RESTRICTIONS
The distribution of materials relating to the offering and the transactions contemplated by the offering may be restricted by law

these restrictions. The materials relating to the offering do not constitute, and may not be used in connection with, an offer or

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the following risk factor, the risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 18-K for the
year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2015, as such Annual Report may
be further amended from time to time, as well as the other information included or incorporated by reference into this prospectus
supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before making an investment decision. These risk factors are not intended as, and
should not be construed as, an exhaustive list of relevant risk factors. There may be other risks that a prospective investor should
consider that are relevant to its own particular circumstances or generally. You should consult your financial and legal advisors
about the risk of investing in the new bonds. Peru disclaims any responsibility for advising you on these matters.
The bonds permit us to make payments in U.S. dollars if we are unable to obtain euro.
If the euro is unavailable to us due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond our control or if the
euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency
or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in
respect of the bonds will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to us or so used. The amount payable on any date in
euro will be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the then most recently available market exchange rate for euro, as the case may
be. Any payment in respect of the bonds so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default under the bonds or the
indenture governing the bonds.

the meanings ascribed to them in the Annual Report.
Recent Developments
The Republic of Peru is in receipt of a document titled "Claimants' Notice of Intent to Commence Arbitration Under the United
States Peru Trade Promotion Agreement" dated February 1, 2016, in the name of Gramercy Funds Management LLC, Gramercy
Peru Holdings LLC, Gramercy Investment Advisors LLC and Gramercy Advisors, LLC, setting forth potential claims under the

Preliminary Results for 2015
Set forth below is preliminary economic results for the year ended December 31, 2015. Unless otherwise stated, historical soles
amounts were converted into U.S. dollars at historical annual average exchange rates. This preliminary information is based on recent
reports published by the Central Bank that are subject to review and adjustment in all respects:

GDP grew by 3.26% in real terms compared to 2014.

The current account registered a deficit of U.S.$ 8.43 billion, or 4.40% of GDP, primarily due to a deficit in the trade
balance of U.S.$ 3.21 billion and negative investment income of U.S.$ 6.82 billion, during 2015.

The value of exports decreased by 13.60%, primarily due to a lower number of shipments of mining, oil and natural gas
products, as well as the contraction in traditional exports to the United States and Japan and non-traditional exports to
Brazil.

The value of imports decreased by 8.73% in the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to the same period in 2014,
principally as a result of imports of capital goods, transportation equipment, inputs and fuel.

The capital account balance increased by 49.67%, to a surplus of U.S.$ 10.22 billion.

Net international reserves decreased from approximately U.S.$ 62.31 billion as of December 31, 2014, to
approximately U.S.$ 61.49 billion as of December 31, 2015.

The non-financial public sector deficit was U.S.$ 3.67 billion, or 2.1% of GDP.

Total government revenues were U.S.$ 38.4 billion, or 20.0% of GDP, compared to U.S.$ 45.0 billion, or 22.2% of
GDP, in 2014.

The non-financial government expenditures were U.S.$ 40.5 billion, or 21.3% of GDP, compared to U.S.$ 43.4 billion,
or 21.5% of GDP, in 2014.

The public sector external debt totaled U.S.$ 23.6 billion, or 12.3% of GDP, compared to U.S.$ 19.8 billion, or 9.7% of
GDP, as of December 31, 2014. 1.04% of public external debt was denominated in soles.

The interest payments on public sector external debt were U.S.$ 952.5 million, or 0.5% of GDP.

The rate of inflation was 4.40%.
The Economy

demand which increased 2.8% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014, due to an increase of 3.8% in public and
private consumption in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period of 2014.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2015, private consumption experienced an annualized growth of 3.4% in real terms and
gross private investment decreased by 5.5%, as compared to the same period in 2014. Public sector investment decreased 13.8% in the
nine months ended September 30, 2015 due mainly to the decrease of 29.2% and 36.2% in investments by regional governments and
municipal governments, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2014. Such
decrease was partially offset by the investments of the national government in the nine months ended September 30, 2015, which grew

10.9% compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to an increase in expenditures in construction, recovery and improvement
of roads in connection with projects of the Ministry of Transport and Communications. Private investment decreased 5.5% in the nine
months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same period in 2014, primarily due to a decrease in the exchange terms of
exports relative to imports and a slower than expected progress in investment projects particularly in the mining sector. Total gross
investment during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 remain the same as in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
