EXECUTION VERSION

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 Covered Bonds has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Covered
Bonds is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in Directive 2014/65/EU
(as amended, "MiFID II"); and (i ) all channels for distribution of the Covered Bonds to eligible
counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or
recommending the Covered Bonds (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 Covered Bonds (by either adopting or refining the
manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Contravention of MAS Notice 626
By its letter dated 18 May 2017, MAS notified that UOB had breached section 27B(2) of the MAS Act
by virtue of UOB's contravention of paragraphs 4.21, 4.22, 4.23 and 12.2 of MAS Notice 626 on the
Prevention of Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism in respect of weaknesses
in conducting due diligence on customers and inadequate scrutiny of customers' transactions and
activities. MAS did not however detect pervasive control weaknesses and had offered to compound
the offences for a sum of S$900,000. UOB had accepted the offer of composition.
UOB Vietnam
In September 2017, UOB received a licence from the State Bank of Vietnam to establish and operate
a 100% foreign owned subsidiary bank in Vietnam. UOB is the first Singapore-headquartered bank to
receive such licence. The licence enables UOB to extend its branch network beyond Ho Chi Minh City
and to offer its products and financial services to businesses and consumers in other cities. This is
expected to give UOB full access to the domestic market of Vietnam.
Merger of Far Eastern Bank Limited into United Overseas Bank Limited
In October 2017, UOB entered into a merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary Far Eastern Bank
Limited ("FEB"), whereby the business and all of the property vested in or belonging to FEB and all of
the liabilities to which FEB was subject were transferred to and vested in UOB.
Exclusivity Talks for Possible Sale of Shares in Hengfeng Bank Co., Ltd, China
