Neither EDC nor any underwriter has authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of the bonds through any financial intermediary, other than offers made by the relevant underwriter which constitute the final placement of the bonds contemplated in the prospectus supplement. This document has not been, and will not be, registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore. Accordingly, each underwriter has represented that it has not offered or sold any bonds or caused the bonds to be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase and will not offer or sell any bonds or cause the bonds to be made the subject of an invitation for subscription or purchase, and has not circulated or distributed, nor will it circulate or distribute, this document or any other document or material in connection with the offer or sale, or invitation for subscription or purchase, of the bonds, whether directly or indirectly, to any person in Singapore other than (a) to an institutional investor (as defined in Section 4A of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 of Singapore (as modified or amended from time to time) (the “SFA”)) pursuant to Section 274 of the SFA or (b) to an accredited investor (as defined in Section 4A of the SFA) pursuant to and in accordance with the conditions specified in Section 275 of the SFA. * A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time. We expect that delivery of the bonds will be made against payment thereof on or about August 1, 2024, which will be the sixth business day following the pricing of the bonds (such settlement cycle being herein referred to as “T+6”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the bonds on the day of pricing will be required, by virtue of the fact that the bonds initially will settle in T+6 to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the bonds who wish to trade the bonds prior to closing should consult their own advisor. This communication is intended for the sole use of the person to whom it is provided by EDC.
