Limited for details of the terms of the note. In this regard,
prospective purchasers should be aware that:
1. The note issued is subject to the terms and conditions of the
pricing supplement agreed between the Issuer and the subscriber(s)
for the note and the Terms and Conditions of the Notes as set out in
the Programme Memorandum dated 29 November 2011 in respect of the
Issuer’s Note Programme;
2. The performance of each note issued is linked to the performance
of an underlying third party entity and/or obligation stipulated in
the pricing supplement in respect of the note and accordingly, as
the prospective purchaser will assume credit exposure to both the
Issuer and such entity and/or obligation, the note is only suitable

all relevant independent investigations. The risks pertaining to
credit-linked notes generally are more fully set out in the
