| Legends: | If and to the extent that this announcement is communicated in, or the offer of the bonds to which it relates is made in, any European Economic Area Member State that has implemented Directive (2003/71/EC) (the “Prospectus Directive”), this announcement and the offer are only addressed to and directed at persons in that Member State who are qualified investors within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive (or who are other persons to whom the offer may lawfully be addressed) and must not be acted upon by other persons in that Member State. | |
This document does not constitute or form part of any offer or invitation to sell these bonds and is not soliciting any offer to buy these bonds in any jurisdiction where such offer or sale is not permitted. This document is, for the purposes of Article 15 of the Prospectus Directive, not a prospectus but an advertisement. This document, the prospectus supplement and the base prospectus have been prepared on the basis that all offers of bonds in any member state of the EEA which has implemented the Prospective Directive (a “Relevant Member State”) will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in that Relevant Member State, from the requirement to produce and publish a prospectus for offers of the bonds. Neither this document nor the prospectus supplement nor the base prospectus have been approved as a prospectus by a competent authority in any Relevant Member State and accordingly none is a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive. |
