PRICING SUPPLEMENT
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS - The Certificates 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 ("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 ("MiFID II"); (ii) a customer within the
meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC ("IMD"), 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 Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended,
the "Prospectus Directive"). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014
(the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Certificates or otherwise making them available to retail investors
in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Certificates or otherwise making them available to any
retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPS Regulation.
