MiFID II product governance / target market assessment – Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes, taking into account the five categories in item 18 of the Guidelines published by ESMA on 5 February 2018, has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients, each as defined in Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); (ii) all channels for distribution to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate; Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturer's 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 manufacturer's target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels[, subject to the distributor's suitability and appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable.

PART B – OTHER INFORMATION

1. Listing and Admission to trading

(i) 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 Euronext Paris with effect from 20 February 2019.

The Existing Notes have already been admitted to trading on Euronext Paris.

(ii) Estimate of total expenses related to admission to trading: EUR 4,450 including AMF fees

2. Ratings

Ratings: The Notes to be issued are expected to be rated Baa1 by Moody's Investors Service Ltd. ("Moody's"), A- by S&P Global Ratings, acting through Standard & Poor's Credit Market Services France SAS ("S&P"), A+ by Fitch France S.A.S. ("Fitch France") and A (High) by DBRS Ratings Limited ("DBRS Limited").

Obligations rated Baa by Moody's are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category.

As defined by S&P, an A- rating means that the Issuer's capacity to meet its financial commitment under the Notes is still strong. The minus (-) sign shows the relative standing within the rating category.

As defined by Fitch France an A+ rating denotes a very low expectation of credit risk. It indicates a very strong capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. Such capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.

As defined by DBRS Limited, an A rating means that the Issuer's capacity for the payment of financial obligations is considered substantial. Such capacity may be vulnerable to future events, but qualifying negative factors are considered manageable.

Each of Moody's, S&P, Fitch France and DBRS Limited is established in the European Union and is registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 (as amended).

3. Interests of Natural and Legal Persons Involved in the Issue

Save for any fees payable to the Managers, so far as the Issuer is aware, no person involved in the offer of the Notes has an interest material to the offer.

4. Yield
Indication of yield: 1.059 per cent. per annum
The yield is calculated at the Issue Date on the basis
of the Issue Price. It is not an indication of future yield.

(if any):
Not applicable
(vi) Intended to be held in a
manner which would allow
Eurosystem eligibility:
No. Whilst the designation is specified as "no" at the
date of these Final Terms, should the Eurosystem
eligibility criteria be amended in the future such that
the Notes are capable of meeting them the Notes may
then be deposited with one of the ICSDs as common
safe-keeper. Note that this does not necessarily mean
that the Notes will then be recognised as eligible
collateral for Eurosystem monetary policy and intra
day credit operations by the Eurosystem at any time
during their life. Such recognition will depend upon the
ECB being satisfied that Eurosystem eligibility criteria
have been met.
