PART A CONTRACTUAL TERMS
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 (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 (as amended ("MiFID II")); (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the
"IDD"), 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 Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the
"EU Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation
(EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "EU 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 EU PRIIPs Regulation.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO UK 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 United Kingdom (the "UK"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person
who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No
2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 as
may be amended or replaced from time to time (including, without limitation, by the European Union
(Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020) (the "EUWA"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions
of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA") and any rules or regulations made under
the FSMA to implement the IDD, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as
defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic UK law
by virtue of EUWA ("UK MiFIR"); or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU)
2017/1129 and any regulatory or implementing technical standards and other delegated or
implementing acts adopted under that Regulation, in each case to the extent that they form part of the
domestic law of the UK by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no
key information document required by the EU PRIIPS Regulation as it forms part of domestic UK law
by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise
making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling
the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under
the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

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 (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.

Governance Sourcebook 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.

RATINGS
Ratings
The Notes to be issued are expected to be assigned the
following ratings:
S&P: BBB+
An obligation rated 'BBB' exhibits adequate protection
parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or
changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the
obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the
obligation. The plus (+) sign shows relative standing within
the rating categories.
(Source: S&P,
https://www.standardandpoors.com/en_US/web/guest/article/-
/view/sourceId/504352)
Moody's: A2
An obligation rated 'A' is judged to be upper-medium grade
and are subject to low credit risk. The modifier `2' indicates a
mid-range ranking.
(Source: Moody's, https://www.moodys.com/ratings-
process/Ratings-Definitions/002002)
Fitch: A
An obligation rated `A' denotes an expectation of low default
risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is
considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more
vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than
is the case for higher ratings.
