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.

UK MiFIR 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 only eligible counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook ("COBS"), and professional clients, as defined in Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (as amended) (the "EUWA") ("UK MiFIR"); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any distributor should take into consideration the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules") 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 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"). 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 (as amended, 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 (the "PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

PROHIBITION OF SALES TO 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 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 (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA") and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement the Insurance Distribution Directive, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by the PRIIPs Regulation as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

Singapore Securities and Futures Act Product Classification: In connection with Section 309B of the Securities and Futures Act 2001 of Singapore (as modified or amended from time to time, the "SFA") and the Securities and Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations 2018 of Singapore (the "CMP Regulations 2018"), the Company has determined, and hereby notifies all relevant persons (as defined in Section 309A(1) of the SFA), that the Notes are prescribed capital markets products (as defined in the CMP Regulations 2018) and are Excluded Investment Products (as defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products and MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendation on Investment Products).

2 RATINGS

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

S&P Global Ratings UK Limited ("S&P"): BBB+

As defined by S&P, a 'BBB' rating means that the Notes exhibit adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor's capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. The addition of a plus (+) sign shows relative standing within the rating category.

(Source: S&P Global Ratings,

https://disclosure.spglobal.com/ratings/en/regulatory/ article/-/view/sourceId/504352)

Moody's Investors Service Ltd. ("Moody's"): A3

As defined by Moody's, obligations rated 'A' are considered upper-medium-grade intrinsic, or standalone, financial strength and thus subject to low credit risk absent any possibility of extraordinary support from an affiliate or a government. The modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic assessment category.

(Source: Moody's,

https://www.moodys.com/researchandratings/researc h-type/regulatory/rating-symbols-anddefinitions/003011001003/003011001003/-/0/0/-/0/-/-

/-/-1/-/-/-/en/global/pdf/-/rra)

Fitch Ratings Ltd ("Fitch"): A+

As defined by Fitch, an 'A' rating denotes expectations of low default risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the

case for higher ratings. The addition of a plus (+) indicates relative differences of probability of default or recovery for issues.

(Source, Fitch Ratings, https://www.fitchratings.com/products/ratingdefinitions)

Each of S&P, Moody's and Fitch is established in the United Kingdom and is registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA. Ratings issued by S&P, Moody's and Fitch are endorsed by S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited, Moody's Deutschland GmbH and Fitch Ratings Ireland Limited, respectively, each of which is established in the EEA and registered under Regulation (EU) No 1060/2009, on credit rating agencies.

3 INTERESTS OF NATURAL AND LEGAL PERSONS INVOLVED IN THE ISSUE

Save as discussed in "Subscription and Sale" in the Prospectus, so far as the Company is aware, no person involved in the issue of the Notes has an interest material to the issue.

4 REASONS FOR THE OFFER AND ESTIMATED NET PROCEEDS

(i) Reasons for the offer: An amount of funding equivalent to the net proceeds
of the issue of the Notes will be used to finance and/or
refinance Eligible Green Assets as defined in Lloyds
Banking Group's Sustainable Bond Framework dated
April 2024. See "Use of Proceeds" in the Prospectus.
(ii) Estimated net proceeds: EUR 995,920,000
5 YIELD

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
safekeeper. 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.
