S-ii

The notes have not been and will not be registered under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of
Japan, or the FIEA, and are subject to the Act on Special Measures Concerning Taxation of Japan, or the Special
Taxation Measures Act. The notes may not be offered or sold in Japan, to any person resident in Japan, or to
others for reoffering or resale directly or indirectly in Japan or to a person resident in Japan, for Japanese
securities law purposes (including any corporation or other entity organized under the laws of Japan) except
pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of, and otherwise in compliance with, the FIEA and
any other applicable laws, regulations and governmental guidelines of Japan. In addition, the notes are not, as
part of the distribution by the underwriters under the applicable underwriting agreement at any time, to be
directly or indirectly offered or sold to, or for the benefit of, any person other than a beneficial owner that is,
(i) for Japanese tax purposes, neither an individual resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation, nor an individual
non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation that in either case is a person having a special relationship
with the issuer of the notes as described in Article 6, Paragraph (4) of the Special Taxation Measures Act, or a
specially-related person of the issuer or (ii) a Japanese financial institution, designated in Article 6, Paragraph
(11) of the Special Taxation Measures Act. Notwithstanding the aforementioned restriction, pursuant to the
Special Taxation Measures Act, SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., acting in its capacity as an underwriter,
will be permitted to acquire or purchase, as part of the distribution under the underwriting agreement of the notes,
the remainder of the notes from any of the other underwriters, where such other underwriter has failed to sell to
subsequent purchasers all of the notes that it acquired or purchased from us in its capacity as an underwriter.
Interest payments on the notes will be subject to Japanese withholding tax unless it is established that the
notes are held by or for the account of a beneficial owner that is (i) for Japanese tax purposes, neither an
individual resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation, nor an individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese
corporation that in either case is a specially-related person of the issuer, (ii) a Japanese financial institution
designated in Article 6, Paragraph (11) of the Special Taxation Measures Act which complies with the
requirement for tax exemption under that paragraph or (iii) a Japanese public corporation, a Japanese financial
institution or a Japanese financial instruments business operator described in Article 3-3, Paragraph (6) of the
Special Taxation Measures Act which complies with the requirement for tax exemption under that paragraph.
Interest payments on the notes to an individual resident of Japan, to a Japanese corporation (except as
described in the preceding paragraph), or to an individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation
that in either case is a specially-related person of the issuer will be subject to deduction in respect of Japanese
income tax at a rate of 15.315% (15% on or after January 1, 2038) of the amount of such interest.
Representation by Investor upon Distribution
By subscribing to any notes, an investor will be deemed to have represented that it is a beneficial owner who
is, (i) for Japanese tax purposes, neither an individual resident of Japan or a Japanese corporation, nor an
individual non-resident of Japan or a non-Japanese corporation that in either case is a person having a special
relationship with the issuer of the notes as described in Article 6, Paragraph (4) of the Special Taxation Measures
Act or (ii) a Japanese financial institution, designated in Article 6, Paragraph (11) of the Special Taxation
Measures Act.
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, or 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,
or MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, or 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. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as
amended, or the 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 PRIIPs Regulation.
S-iii

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO U.K. 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, or the U.K. 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 EUWA; (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial
Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended, or 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. Consequently no key information document required by the PRIIPs Regulation as it forms part of
domestic law by virtue of the EUWA, or the U.K. PRIIPs Regulation, for offering or selling the notes or
otherwise making them available to retail investors in the U.K. has been prepared and therefore offering or
selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the U.K. may be unlawful under the
U.K. PRIIPs Regulation.
NOTIFICATION UNDER SECTION 309B OF THE SFA--In connection with Section 309B of the
Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289) of Singapore, or the SFA, and the Securities and Futures (Capital
Markets Products) Regulations 2018 of Singapore, or the CMP Regulations 2018, we have determined, and
hereby notify all relevant persons (as defined in Section 309(A)(1) of the SFA), that the notes are "prescribed
capital markets products" (as defined in the CMP Regulations 2018) and Excluded Investment Products (as
defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products and MAS Notice FAA-N16:

Recent Developments
Regulatory Matters
In April 2019, SMBC and its New York branch entered into a written agreement with the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York requiring SMBC and its New York branch to address certain deficiencies relating to the New
York branch's anti-money laundering and economic sanctions compliance program. SMBC and its New York
branch are required, among other things, to implement corrective measures and submit periodic progress reports
to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Although we are committed to improving compliance with laws and
regulations relating to anti-money laundering and economic sanctions, SMBC and its New York branch may be
subject to additional supervisory or enforcement action by other regulatory authorities. In such an event, SMBC
and its New York branch may be required, among other things, to implement additional corrective measures, and
may be subject to a monetary fine. If SMBC and its New York branch fail to comply with the terms of the written
agreement or any other form of supervisory or enforcement action, we may become subject to additional
sanctions.

Separately, as announced in certain media reports in November 2021, we are currently under investigation
by the Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission of Japan in connection with certain business practices
and activities of our subsidiary, SMBC Nikko Securities and certain of its employees. The outcome of this
investigation is uncertain, however, we may face civil or criminal penalties or become subject to a business
improvement or cessation order or other regulatory sanctions or fines as a result. In addition, we have
experienced and may continue to experience reputational harm as a result of such investigation.

in government policies could have a negative impact on our results of operations", "--Fraud, misconduct or other

sanctions," "--Our business could be adversely affected by litigation and regulatory proceedings globally",
