Certain Joint Lead Managers and Co-Managers may not be U.S. registered broker-dealers and therefore may not make sales of any Notes in the United States or to
U.S. persons except in compliance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations. To the extent that any such Joint Lead Manager and Co-Managers intends to effect sales

________________________________________________

The Issuer has not been registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the Senior Non Preferred Notes have not been,
and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the state securities laws of any state of the United States or
the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and are being offered only to qualified institutional buyers ("QIBs"), within the meaning of Rule 144A, pursuant
to the registration exemption under Rule 144A and outside the United States to non-"U.S. persons" in "offshore transactions" (as such terms are defined in
Rule 902 under the Securities Act) pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the Senior
Non Preferred Notes or determined that this Pricing Supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Under no
circumstances shall this Pricing Supplement constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these Notes, in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.

The Senior Non Preferred Notes constitute unconditional liabilities of the Issuer. The Senior Non Preferred Notes are not insured or guaranteed
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or instrumentality.

It is expected that delivery of the Senior Non Preferred Notes will be delivered against payment therefor on or about April 19, 2021, which will
be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the Senior Non Preferred Notes (such settlement cycle being referred to herein as "T+5"). Under
S-2

Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days
unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Senior Non Preferred Notes more than two
business days prior to their date of delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Senior Non Preferred Notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an
alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor.

The Senior Non Preferred 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"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of
Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), 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 Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the "Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no key
information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation"), for offering or selling the Senior Non Preferred
Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA, has been or will be 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 PRIIPs Regulation.

The Senior Non Preferred 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 ("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 ("EUWA"); (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the FSMA and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement
Directive (EU) 2016/97, 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 law by virtue of the EUWA; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 as it forms part
of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic
law by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Senior Non Preferred Notes or otherwise making them available to
retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Senior Non Preferred Notes or otherwise making them available to any
retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
