The credit ratings included or referred to in this Debt Issuance Programme Prospectus will be treated for the purposes of Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 (as amended) on credit rating agencies (the “CRA Regulation”) as having been issued by Moody’s and S&P upon registration pursuant to the CRA Regulation.

Tranches of Notes issued under the Programme may be rated or unrated. Where a tranche of Notes is rated, such rating will not necessarily be the same as the ratings assigned to the Programme. Where a tranche of Notes is rated, such rating will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Whether or not a rating in relation to any Tranche of Notes will be treated as having been issued by a credit rating agency established in the European Union and registered under the CRA Regulation will also be disclosed in the relevant Final Terms. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Ratings can come under review at any time by rating agencies. Investors are invited to refer to the websites of the relevant rating agencies in order to have access to the latest ratings (respectively: http://www.standardandpoors.com and http://www.moodys.com).
