FINAL TERMS

MiFID II product governance/Professional investors and ECPs only target market – Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, MiFID II); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a distributor) should take into consideration the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

Prohibition of sales to EEA and UK 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 (EEA) or in the United Kingdom (the UK). 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 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. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the PRIIPs Regulation) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA or in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA or in the UK may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

PART B – OTHER INFORMATION

1. LISTING AND ADMISSION TO TRADING

(a) Listing and Admission to trading: Application has been made by the Issuer (or on its
behalf) for the Notes to be admitted to trading on the
London Stock Exchange's regulated market and
listing on the Official List of the FCA
with effect
from
the Issue Date.

(b) Estimate of total expenses related to admission to trading: £4,725

2. RATINGS

Ratings: The Notes to be issued are expected to be rated:

Moody's Investors Service Limited: A1 (stable) S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited: A (stable) Fitch Ratings Ltd.: A+ (negative)

A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. The rating agencies above have published the following high-level descriptions of such ratings:

  • A rating of "A1" by Moody's Investors Service Limited is described by it as indicating that the obligations are considered upper-medium-grade and are subject to low credit risk. The modifier "1" indicates that the obligations rank in the higher end of this category.
  • A rating of "A" by S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited is described by it as indicating that the obligation is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higherrated categories. However, the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is still strong.
  • A rating of "A+" by Fitch Ratings Ltd. is described by it as indicating expectations of low default risk. The capacity for payment is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

3. INTERESTS OF NATURAL AND LEGAL PERSONS INVOLVED IN THE ISSUE

So far as the Issuer is aware, no person involved in the issue of the Notes has an interest material to the offer. Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited and its affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in investment banking and/or commercial banking transactions with, and may perform other services for, the Issuer and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

4. OPERATIONAL INFORMATION

(b) Common Code: 227397489

Not Applicable
(d) Names and addresses of additional
Paying Agent(s) (if any):
Not Applicable
(e) Intended to be held in a manner
which would allow Eurosystem
eligibility:
Yes. Note that the designation "yes"
simply means
that the Notes are intended upon issue to be deposited
with one of the International Central Securities
Depositories (ICSDs)
as common safekeeper and
does not necessarily mean that the Notes will be
recognised as eligible collateral for Eurosystem
monetary policy and intra day credit operations by the
Eurosystem either upon issue or at any or all times
during their life. Such recognition will depend upon
the European Central Bank (ECB)
being satisfied
that Eurosystem eligibility criteria have been met.
(f) Relevant Benchmark: As far as the Issuer is aware, as at the date hereof,
SONIA
does not fall within the scope of the
Benchmarks Regulation.
