Nothing in this announcement, the

or a solicitation of an offer to buy or subscribe for, the Bonds
described in the Final Terms or the Prospectus in any jurisdiction
in which such offer or solicitation is unlawful, and nothing in

Unless an exemption under the
relevant securities laws is applicable, the Bonds may not be
offered, sold, resold, transferred, delivered or distributed,

States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction
not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act
and applicable state or local securities laws.
The Issuer has not registered and

principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or who it
is reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or dispose of
