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 Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended or superseded, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended, the "Prospectus Regulation"). Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Securities or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

CAUSEWAY CAPITAL MANAGEMENT (the "Financial Intermediary") will manage a plan (the "Plan") which will be offered to the public in the United Kingdom in accordance with the arrangements listed below. The Financial Intermediary has selected the Certificates as the securities into which the Financial Intermediary will invest on behalf of investors in the Plan. The proceeds invested by investors in the Plan will be used by the Financial Intermediary to purchase the Certificates. It is understood that the performance of the Plan will be related to the performance of the Certificates throughout their term. Therefore, the amounts payable by the Financial Intermediary on the redemption of the Plan are linked to the amounts paid by the Issuer pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Certificates.
| Offer Price: | A prospective investor in the Plan should contact the Financial Intermediary for details of the Offer Price. |
|---|---|
| If any commissions or fees discount relating to the issue and sale of the Certificates have been paid or are payable by the Manager to any intermediary then such intermediary may be obliged to fully disclose to its clients the existence, nature and amount of any such commissions or fees (including, if applicable, by way of discount) as required in accordance with laws and regulations applicable to such intermediary, including Regulation (EU) No. 600/2014 on markets in financial instruments as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the EUWA and regulations made thereunder ("UK MiFIR").

With the exception of the United Kingdom no action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Issuer, Guarantor or the Manager that would permit a public offering of the Certificates, or possession or distribution of any offering material in connection with the issue of the Certificates in any
| country or jurisdiction where action for that purposes is required. The Financial Intermediary must comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the United Kingdom in connection with the offer and sale of Certificates at its own expense. |

| What are the key risks that are specific to the securities? | |
|---|---|
| Most material risk factors specific to the securities |
There are also risks associated with the Securities, including:
The return on the Securities depends on the performance of the Underlying Reference(s) and whether knock-in or knock out features apply. Autocallable Products include automatic early redemption mechanisms. Depending on the applicable formula, if an automatic early redemption event occurs investors may be exposed to a partial loss of their investment. Investors may be exposed to a partial or total loss of their investment.
Index Securities are linked to the performance of an underlying index (an "Index"), which may reference various asset classes such as, equities, bonds, currency exchange rates or property price data, or could reference a mixture of asset classes. Investors in Index Securities face the risk of a broader set of circumstances that mean that the assets underlying the Index do not perform as expected compared to an investment in conventional debt securities. Accordingly, the return on an investment in Index Securities is more likely to be adversely affected than an investment in conventional debt securities.
Exposure to indices, adjustment events and market disruption or failure to open of an exchange may have an adverse effect on the value and liquidity of the Securities.
The trading price of the Securities may be affected by a number of factors including, but not limited to, the relevant price, value or level of the Underlying Reference(s), the time remaining until the scheduled redemption date of the Securities, the actual or implied volatility associated with the Underlying Reference(s) and the correlation risk of the relevant Underlying Reference(s). The possibility that the value and trading price of the Securities will fluctuate (either positively or negatively) depends on a number of factors, which investors should consider carefully before purchasing or selling Securities.
The terms of the Securities will contain provisions for calling meetings of holders of such Securities to consider matters affecting their interests generally. These provisions permit defined majorities to bind all holders, including holders who did not attend and vote at the relevant meeting and holders who voted in a manner contrary to the majority.
