| C.15 | Description of how the value of the investment is affected by the value of the underlying instrument |
The return on, and value of, the Securities will be linked to changes in the value of the GBP Preference Share issued by Teal Investments Limited (Class number: PEIS0007), the "Underlying Preference Share", the value of which is dependent on the performance of FTSE 100, the "Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset". |
| Interest | ||
| The Securities will not have interest. | ||
| Final redemption | ||
| The Securities are scheduled to redeem on 16 March 2026 by payment by the Issuer of an amount in GBP for each GBP 1,000 in nominal amount of the Securities equal to an amount determined by the Determination Agent in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner as GBP 1,000 multiplied by an amount equal to the value of the Underlying Preference Share on 9 March 2026, |
| being the final valuation date, divided by the value of the Underlying Preference Share on 16 March 2020, being the initial valuation date. The final valuation date could be postponed if any relevant date for valuation is postponed in accordance with the terms of the Underlying Preference Share. |
|---|
| The greater the value of the Underlying Preference Share on the final valuation date (as compared to the value of the Underlying Preference Share on the initial valuation date), the greater the redemption amount payable on the Securities. If the value of the Underlying Preference Share on the final valuation date is below the value of the Underlying Preference Share on the initial valuation date, the final redemption amount will be less than the amount invested and could be as low as zero. |
| The return on the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated as an amount dependent on the price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Assets on one or more specified dates during the life of the Underlying Preference Shares. In particular, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will depend on the following: |
| 'the 'Initial Price' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, which reflects the price or level of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on the Initial Valuation Date of the Underlying Preference Shares (being 9 March 2020) and is used as the reference point for determining the performance of any investment; |
| the 'Final Valuation Price' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, which reflects the price or level of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on or near the Final Valuation Date; |
| the 'Final Autocall Settlement Percentage' which is 192.46% |
| the 'Strike Price' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, which is calculated as the Strike Price Percentage multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset; |
| the 'Strike Price Percentage' which is 100%; |
| the 'Final Barrier' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, which is calculated as 100% multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. |
| the 'Knock-in Barrier Price' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset, which is calculated as 60% multiplied by the Initial Price of that Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset; |
| the 'Knock-in Barrier Percentage' which is 60%; |
| the price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on one or more 'observation dates' during an 'observation period'; and |
| Initial Price: The Initial Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is 6,041.75. |
| Final Valuation Price: The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is the closing price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on 9 March 2026. |
| Calculation of the return on the Underlying Preference Share |
| There are several threshold levels which will affect the calculation of the return on the Underlying Preference Share. In particular, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated differently depending on whether or not the |
| price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset on certain dates is equal to, above or below certain specified threshold levels. In other words, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated differently depending on whether or not the performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset satisfies certain 'threshold tests'. |
|---|
| The first threshold test for the Underlying Preference Shares underlying the Securities is whether: |
| The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is greater than or equal to the Final Barrier of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. |
| If the first threshold test is satisfied, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated as follows: |
| Return on the Underlying Preference Share = the Final Autocall Settlement Percentage (being 192.46%) multiplied by the Calculation Amount (being GBP 100). |
| If the first threshold test is not satisfied, a second threshold test will be considered. |
| The second threshold test for the Underlying Preference Shares underlying the Securities is whether: |
| The Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is greater than or equal to the Knock-in Barrier Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. |
| If the second threshold test is satisfied, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will be calculated as follows: |
| Return on the Underlying Preference Share = 100% multiplied by the Calculation Amount. |
| If the second threshold test is not satisfied, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will instead be calculated as follows: |
| Return on the Underlying Preference Share = the Final Valuation Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset divided by the Strike Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset and then multiplied by the Calculation Amount. |
| Early redemption of the Underlying Preference Shares following an autocall event: |
| If the closing price or level of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset observed on an Autocall Valuation Date is greater than or equal to its corresponding Autocall Barrier in respect of such Autocall Valuation Date, the Underlying Preference Shares will be redeemed on the Autocall Early Redemption Date instead of the scheduled redemption date of such Underlying Preference Shares. In such an event, the return on the Underlying Preference Share will be equal to the Autocall Early Cash Settlement Percentage as specified in the table below multiplied by the Calculation Amount (being GBP 100) payable on the relevant Autocall Early Redemption Date. |
| The 'Autocall Barrier' of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is calculated as the Autocall Barrier Percentage specified in the table below multiplied by the Initial Price of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset. |
| Each Autocall Valuation Date and the corresponding Autocall Early Redemption Date, Autocall Barrier Percentage and Autocall Early Cash Settlement Percentage is specified in the table below: |

| A deterioration in global or local economic and market conditions may lead to (among other things): (i) deteriorating business, consumer or investor confidence and lower levels of fixed asset investment and productivity growth, which in turn may lead to lower client activity, including lower demand for borrowing from creditworthy customers; (ii) higher default rates, delinquencies, write-offs and impairment charges as borrowers struggle with the burden of additional debt; (iii) subdued asset prices and payment patterns, including the value of any collateral held by the Bank Group; (iv) mark-to-market losses in trading portfolios resulting from changes in factors such as credit ratings, share prices and solvency of counterparties; and (v) revisions to calculated expected credit losses leading to increases in impairment allowances. In addition, the Bank Group's ability to borrow from other financial institutions or raise funding from external investors may be affected by deteriorating economic conditions and market disruption. |
||
| Process of UK withdrawal from the European Union | ||
| The manner in which the UK withdraws from the EU will likely have a marked impact on general economic conditions in the UK and the EU. The UK's future relationship with the EU and its trading relationships with the rest of the world could take a number of years to resolve. This may lead to a prolonged period of uncertainty, unstable economic conditions and market volatility, including fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. |
||
| Whilst the exact impact of the UK's withdrawal from the EU is unknown, the Bank Group continues to monitor the risks that may have a more immediate impact for its business, including, but not limited to: (i) market volatility, (ii) credit spreads widening, (iii) credit rating agency downgrades, (iv) a UK recession, (v) impact on the ability to attract and retain qualified and skilled employees, (v) a disorderly exit from the EU, (vi) changes to current EU 'Passporting' rights, (vii) uncertainty and change to the legal framework within which the Bank Group operates and (viii) reduced access to financial markets infrastructures. |
| It is difficult to predict the impact of the UK's withdrawal from the EU on the Bank Group. The resulting implications (such as those mentioned above) could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
|---|---|
| The impact of interest rate changes on the Bank Group's profitability | |
| Any changes to interest rates are significant for the Bank Group, especially given the uncertainty as to the direction of interest rates and the pace at which interest rates may change particularly in the Bank Group's main markets of the UK and the US. A continued period of low interest rates and flat yield curves, including any further cuts, may affect and continue to put pressure on the Bank Group's net interest margins (the difference between its lending income and borrowing costs) and could adversely affect the profitability and prospects of the Bank Group. |
|
| Changes in interest rates could have an adverse impact on the value of the securities held in the Bank Group's liquid asset portfolio. Consequently, this could create more volatility than expected through the Bank Group's fair value through other comprehensive income reserves. |
|
| The competitive environments of the banking and financial services industry |
|
| The Bank Group's businesses are conducted in competitive environments (in particular, in the UK and US), with increased competition scrutiny, and the Bank Group's financial performance depends upon the Bank Group's ability to respond effectively to competitive pressures whether due to competitor behaviour, new entrants to the market, consumer demand, technological changes or otherwise. |
|
| This competitive environment, and the Bank Group's response to it, may have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's ability to maintain existing or capture additional market share, business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Regulatory change agenda and impact on business model | |
| The Bank Group remains subject to ongoing significant levels of regulatory change and scrutiny in many of the countries in which it operates (including, in particular, the UK and the US). A more intensive regulatory approach and enhanced requirements together with the potential lack of international regulatory co-ordination as enhanced supervisory standards are developed and implemented may adversely affect the Bank Group's business, capital and risk management strategies and/or may result in the Bank Group deciding to modify its legal entity, capital and funding structures and business mix, or to exit certain business activities altogether or not to expand in areas despite otherwise attractive potential. |
|
| There are several significant pieces of legislation and areas of focus which will require significant management attention, cost and resource, including: (i) changes in minimum requirements for own funds and eligible liabilities, (ii) introduction of regulations which require the reporting and clearing of standardised over the counter ("OTC") derivatives and the mandatory margining of non-cleared OTC derivatives, (iii) changes to the regulatory framework applicable to the Bank Group could entail significant costs and have a significant impact on certain markets in which the Bank Group operates and (iv) supervisory stress testing exercises in a number of jurisdictions. Failure to meet the requirements of regulatory stress tests, or the failure by regulators to approve the stress test results and capital plans of the Group, could result in the Group or certain of its members including the Issuer being required to enhance their capital position, limit capital distributions or position additional capital in |
| specific subsidiaries. |
|---|
| The impact of climate change on the Bank Group's business |
| The risks associated with climate change are subject to rapidly increasing societal, regulatory and political focus, both in the UK and internationally. Embedding climate risk into the Bank Group's risk framework in line with regulatory expectations, and adapting the Bank Group's operations and business strategy to address both the financial risks resulting from: (i) the physical risk of climate change; and (ii) the risk from the transition to a low carbon economy, could have a significant impact on the Bank Group's business. |
| The impacts of physical and transition climate risks can lead to second order connected risks, which have the potential to affect the Bank Group's retail and wholesale portfolios. The impacts of climate change may increase losses for those sectors sensitive to the effects of physical and transition risks. |
| If the Bank Group does not adequately embed risks associated with climate change into its risk framework to appropriately measure, manage and disclose the various financial and operational risks it faces as a result of climate change, or fails to adapt its strategy and business model to the changing regulatory requirements and market expectations on a timely basis, it may have a material and adverse impact on the Bank Group's level of business growth, competitiveness, profitability, capital requirements, cost of funding, and financial condition. |
| Impact of benchmark interest rate reforms on the Bank Group |
| Global regulators and central banks have been driving international efforts to reform key benchmark interest rates and indices, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), which are used to determine the amounts payable under a wide range of transactions and make them more reliable and robust. This has resulted in significant changes to the methodology and operation of certain benchmarks and indices, the adoption of alternative "risk-free" reference rates and the proposed discontinuation of certain reference rates (including LIBOR), with further changes anticipated. |
| Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, the availability and/or suitability of alternative "risk-free" reference rates and other reforms may adversely affect a broad range of transactions (including any securities, loans and derivatives which use LIBOR to determine the amount of interest payable that are included in the Bank Group's financial assets and liabilities) that use these reference rates and indices and introduce a number of risks for the Bank Group, including, but not limited to: (i) conduct risk, (ii) financial risks, (iii) pricing risk, (iv) operational risk and (v) accounting risk. The occurrence of any such risks may have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
| Credit risk |
| Credit risk is the risk of loss to the Bank Group from the failure of clients, customers or counterparties, to fully honour their obligations to members of the Bank Group, including the whole and timely payment of principal, interest, collateral and other receivables. |
| The Bank Group is subject to risks arising from changes in credit quality and recovery rates of loans and advances due from borrowers and counterparties in any specific portfolio. Any deterioration in credit quality could lead to lower recoverability and higher impairment in a specific sector. The following are areas of uncertainties to the Bank Group's portfolio which could have a material impact on performance: (i) UK retailers, hospitality and leisure, (ii) consumer |
| affordability, (iii) UK real estate market, (iv) leverage finance underwriting and (v) Italian mortgage portfolio. |
|
|---|---|
| The Bank Group also has large individual exposures to single name counterparties, both in its lending activities and in its financial services and trading activities. |
|
| The default of such counterparties could have a significant impact on the carrying value of these assets. In addition, where such counterparty risk has been mitigated by taking collateral, credit risk may remain high if the collateral held cannot be realised, or has to be liquidated at prices which are insufficient to recover the full amount of the loan or derivative exposure. Any such defaults could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's results due to, for example, increased credit losses and higher impairment charges. |
|
| Market risk | |
| Market risk is the risk of loss arising from potential adverse change in the value of the Bank Group's assets and liabilities from fluctuation in market variables including, but not limited to, interest rates, foreign exchange, equity prices, commodity prices, credit spreads, implied volatilities and asset correlations. |
|
| A broadening in trade tensions between the US and its major trading partners, slowing global growth and political concerns in the US and Europe (including Brexit) are some of the factors that could heighten market risks for the Bank Group's portfolios. In addition, the Bank Group's trading business is generally exposed to a prolonged period of elevated asset price volatility, particularly if it negatively affects the depth of marketplace liquidity. Such a scenario could impact the Bank Group's ability to execute client trades and may also result in lower client flow-driven income and/or market-based losses on its existing portfolio of market risks. These can include having to absorb higher hedging costs from rebalancing risks that need to be managed dynamically as market levels and their associated volatilities change. |
|
| It is difficult to predict changes in market conditions, and such changes could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Treasury and capital risk | |
| Group: | There are three primary types of treasury and capital risk faced by the Bank |
| (1) | Liquidity risk – which is the risk that the Bank Group is unable to meet its contractual or contingent obligations or that it does not have the appropriate amount, tenor and composition of funding and liquidity to support its assets. This could cause the Bank Group to fail to meet regulatory liquidity standards or be unable to support day-to-day banking activities; |
| (2) | Capital risk – which is the risk that the Bank Group has an insufficient level or composition of capital to support its normal business activities and to meet its regulatory capital requirements under normal operating environments or stressed conditions (both actual and as defined for internal planning or regulatory stress testing purposes). This includes the risk from the Bank Group's pension plans; and |
| (3) | Interest rate risk in the banking book – which is the risk that the Bank Group is exposed to capital or income volatility because of a mismatch between the interest rate exposures of its (non-traded) assets and liabilities. |
| The occurrence of any such treasury and capital risks could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial |
| condition and prospects. | |
|---|---|
| Operational risk | |
| Operational risk is the risk of loss to the Bank Group from inadequate or failed processes or systems, human factors or due to external events where the root cause is not due to credit or market risks. Examples include: (i) operational resilience, (ii) cyber threats, (iii) new and emergent technology, (iv) external fraud, (v) data management and information protection, (vi) algorithmic trading, (vii) processing error, (viii) supplier exposure, (ix) critical accounting estimates and judgements, (x) tax risk and (xi) ability to hire and retain appropriately qualified employees. |
|
| The occurrence of any such operational risks could disadvantage the Bank Group's customers, clients or counterparties and could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Model risk | |
| Model risk is the risk of potential adverse consequences from financial assessments or decisions based on incorrect or misused model outputs and reports. The Bank Group relies on models to support a broad range of business and risk management activities, including informing business decisions and strategies, measuring and limiting risk, valuing exposures (including the calculation of impairment), conducting stress testing, assessing capital adequacy, supporting new business acceptance and risk and reward evaluation, managing client assets, and meeting reporting requirements. Models are, by their nature, imperfect and incomplete representations of reality because they rely on assumptions and inputs, and so they may be subject to errors affecting the accuracy of their outputs. Model errors or misuse may result in (among other things) the Bank Group making inappropriate business decisions and/or inaccuracies or errors being identified in the Bank Group's risk management and regulatory reporting processes. This could result in significant financial loss, imposition of additional capital requirements, enhanced regulatory supervision and reputational damage, all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Conduct risk Conduct risk is the risk of detriment to customers, clients, market integrity, effective competition or the Bank Group from the inappropriate supply of financial services, including instances of wilful or negligent misconduct. This risk could manifest itself in a variety of ways: (i) employee misconduct, (ii) product governance and life cycle, (iii) financial crime, (iv) data protection and privacy and (v) regulatory focus on culture and accountability. |
|
| The occurrence of any such conduct risks could disadvantage the Bank Group's customers, clients or counterparties and could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Reputation risk | |
| Reputation risk is the risk that an action, transaction, investment, event, decision or business relationship will reduce trust in the Bank Group's integrity and competence. |
|
| Any material lapse in standards of integrity, compliance, customer service or operating efficiency may represent a potential reputation risk. A risk arising in one business area can have an adverse effect upon the Bank Group's overall reputation and any one transaction, investment or event (in the perception of key |
| stakeholders) can reduce trust in the Bank Group's integrity and competence. | |
|---|---|
| Reputation risk could also arise from negative public opinion about the actual, or perceived, manner in which the Bank Group conducts its business activities, or the Bank Group's financial performance, as well as actual or perceived practices in banking and the financial services industry generally. Negative public opinion may adversely affect the Bank Group's ability to retain and attract customers, in particular, corporate and retail depositors, and to retain and motivate staff, and could have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Reputation risk has the potential to arise from operational issues or conduct matters which cause detriment to customers, clients, market integrity, effective competition or the Bank Group. |
|
| Legal risk and legal, competition and regulatory matters | |
| The Bank Group conducts activities in a highly regulated market which exposes it to legal risk arising from (i) the multitude of laws and regulations that apply to the businesses it operates, which are highly dynamic, may vary between jurisdictions, and are often unclear in their application to particular circumstances especially in new and emerging areas; and (ii) the diversified and evolving nature of the Bank Group's businesses and business practices. In each case, this exposes the Bank Group to the risk of loss or the imposition of penalties, damages or fines from the failure of members of the Bank Group to meet their respective legal obligations, including legal or contractual requirements. |
|
| A breach of applicable legislation and/or regulations by the Bank Group or its employees could result in criminal prosecution, regulatory censure, potentially significant fines and other sanctions in the jurisdictions in which the Bank Group operates. Where clients, customers or other third parties are harmed by the Bank Group's conduct, this may also give rise to civil legal proceedings, including class actions. Other legal disputes may also arise between the Bank Group and third parties relating to matters such as breaches or enforcement of legal rights or obligations arising under contracts, statutes or common law. Adverse findings in any such matters may result in the Bank Group being liable to third parties or may result in the Bank Group's rights not being enforced as intended. |
|
| The outcome of legal, competition and regulatory matters, both those to which the Bank Group is currently exposed and any others which may arise in the future, is difficult to predict. In connection with such matters, the Bank Group may incur significant expense, regardless of the ultimate outcome, and any such matters could expose the Bank Group to a number of adverse outcomes. In light of the uncertainties involved in legal, competition and regulatory matters, there can be no assurance that the outcome of a particular matter or matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Bank Group's business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects. |
|
| Resolution actions (including bail-in actions) in the event the Issuer is failing or likely to fail could materially adversely affect the value of the Securities |
|
| Under the UK Banking Act, the Bank of England, the HM Treasury and a number of other UK authorities have substantial powers to take a range of resolution actions to rescue a financial institution (such as the Issuer), where it considers the relevant institution to be failing or likely to fail. In such case, the relevant UK resolution authority could exercise such powers to (a) transfer all or part of the institution's business to a third party and/or to a "bridge bank" and/or to a vehicle created by the resolution authority, (b) take the institution into temporary public ownership, (c) provided the relevant conditions are met, exercise the 'bail-in tool' or (d) require some combination thereof. Exercise of the 'bail-in tool' in respect of the Issuer and the Securities would be expected to be |
| made without the consent of the holders of the Securities, and could result in the cancellation of all, or some, of the principal amount of the Securities and/or the conversion of the Securities into shares or other obligations of the Issuer or another person, or any other modification to the terms of the Securities. The exercise of resolution powers in respect of the Issuer and the Securities (in particular, the 'bail-in tool') could materially adversely affect the rights of the holders of the Securities, the value of the Securities and/or the ability of the Issuer to satisfy its obligations under the Securities, and holders of the Securities could lose some or all of their investment. |

| D.6 | Key information on the key risks |
You may lose up to the entire value of your investment if the Issuer fails or is otherwise unable to meet its payment obligations. |
| that are specific to the Securities; and risk warning that investors may lose some or all of the value of their investment |
You may also lose the value of your investment if: | |
| the Underlying Preference Share(s) (or the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) and in turn the Underlying Preference Share(s)) perform in such a manner that the redemption amount payable to you (whether at maturity or following an early redemption) is less than the initial purchase price and could be as low as zero; |
||
| you sell your Securities prior to maturity in the secondary market (if any) at an amount that is less than the initial purchase price; and/or |
||
| the Securities are redeemed early following the occurrence of an extraordinary event in relation to the Underlying Preference Share, the Issuer, the relevant currencies or taxation (such as following an additional disruption event) and the amount you receive on such early redemption is less than the initial purchase price. |
||
| Reinvestment risk/loss of yield: Following an early redemption of your Securities for any reason, you may be unable to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective yield as high as the yield on the Securities being redeemed. |
||
| Volatile market prices: The market value of the Securities is unpredictable and may be highly volatile, as it can be affected by many unpredictable factors, including: market interest and yield rates; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; exchange controls; the time remaining until the Securities mature; economic, financial, regulatory, political, terrorist, military or other events in one or more jurisdictions; changes in laws or regulations; the Issuer's creditworthiness or perceived creditworthiness; and the performance of the relevant Underlying Preference Share(s) (or the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) and in turn the Underlying Preference Share(s)). |
||
| Securities are not 'principal protected': Upon maturity of your Securities, you may lose some or all of the capital that you invested, depending on the performance of the Underlying Preference Share(s) (or the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) and in turn the Underlying Preference Share(s)). |
||
| Securities include embedded derivatives on Underlying Reference Asset(s) that are subject to adjustment: The Securities are linked to the Underlying Preference Share(s) which are in turn linked to the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s). The Underlying Preference Share(s) are subject to provisions which provide for adjustments and modifications of their terms and alternative means of valuation of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) in certain circumstances (and which could be exercised by the issuer of the Underlying Preference Share(s) in a manner which has an adverse effect on the market value and/or amount repayable in respect of your Securities). |
||
| Risks relating to Underlying Preference Shares: You are exposed to the change in value of the Underlying Preference Share(s) which may fluctuate up or |
| down depending on the performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s). The performance of the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) may be subject to fluctuations that may not correlate with other similar reference assets. Payments upon redemption will be calculated by the change in value of the Underlying Preference Share(s) between 16 March 2020 and 9 March 2026. Any information about the past performance of the Underlying Preference Share(s) and/or the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s) should not be taken as an indication of how prices will change in the future. You should also note that the market value of both your Securities and the Underlying Preference Share(s) will be affected by the ability, and the perceived ability, of the Issuer to fulfil its obligations under the instruments. The impact of any inability, or perceived inability, of the Issuer in this regard may be greater in respect of the Securities as the Securities are linked to Underlying Preference Share(s) that are issued by the Issuer and it may negatively affect both the value of the Underlying Preference Share(s) and the value of your Securities. Risks associated with specific Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset(s): |
||
|---|---|---|
| As the Underlying Preference Share Reference Asset is an equity index, the Underlying Preference Share may be subject to the risk of fluctuations in market interest rates, currency exchange rates, equity prices, inflation, the value and volatility of the relevant equity index, and also to economic, financial, regulatory, political, terrorist, military or other events in one or more jurisdictions, including factors affecting capital markets generally or the stock exchanges on which any such Underlying Preference Share may be traded. This could have an adverse effect on the value of the Underlying Preference Share which, in turn, will have an adverse effect on the value of your Securities. |
||
| The capital invested in the Securities is at risk. Consequently, you may lose the value of your entire investment, or part of it. |
||
| US withholding on dividend equivalent amounts: Certain actual or deemed payments on the securities held by non-US investors generally may be subject to a US withholding tax of 30 per cent. No additional amounts will be payable in respect of such withholding taxes. |
||
| Section E – Offer | ||
| E.2b | Reasons for offer and use of proceeds when different from making profit and/or hedging certain risks |
The net proceeds from each issue of Securities will be applied by the Issuer for its general corporate purposes, which include making a profit and/or hedging certain risks. If the Issuer elects at the time of issuance of Securities to make different or more specific use of proceeds, the Issuer will describe that use in the Final Terms. Not Applicable: the net proceeds will be applied by the Issuer for making profit and/or hedging certain risks. |
| E.3 | Description of the terms and conditions of the offer |
Not Applicable: the Securities have not been offered to the public. |
| E.4 | Description of any interest material to the issue/offer, including conflicting interests |
The relevant Manager(s) or authorised offeror(s) may be paid fees in relation to any issue or offer of Securities. Potential conflicts of interest may exist between the Issuer, Determination Agent, relevant Manager(s) or authorised offeror(s) or their affiliates (who may have interests in transactions in derivatives related to the Underlying Reference Asset(s) which may, but are not intended to, adversely affect the market price, liquidity or value of the Securities) and holders. |
| E.7 | Estimated expenses charged |
Not Applicable: no expenses will be charged to the holder by the issuer or the offerors. |
