1 Promotional Document ING Belgium International Finance (Luxembourg) 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19 The ING Belgium International Finance (Luxembourg) 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19 (in short ING 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19) are for investors looking for an investment:  in the long term (6 years)  which gives right to a 100% redemption (excluding costs) of the invested capital by the Issuer at Maturity, except in the event of bankruptcy or default by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor  which offers the possibility of benefiting from a gross annual coupon of at most 6.25% 1 (or a gross actuarial return of 5.82%) which will depend on the average performance of a basket of 20 equi-weighted shares, from varied sectors and internationally diversified (mainly in North America and Europe). Description of the coupon fixing mechanism Each year a gross coupon will be paid according to the performance (in percentage) of a basket of shares, with a maximum of 6.25% 1. The performance of will equal the arithmetical mean of the trend of its component shares. The performance of determines the rate of the gross coupon paid out. The trend of each share is calculated by comparing its closing price three business days before the relevant Coupon Payment Date 2 (i.e. the Observation Date 3 ) with its starting level. For each share, the starting price retained will correspond to its closing price on the Payment Date. To calculate the performance of, the positive trend of each share will be limited to 6.25% whereas the negative performance of each share will be limited to - 20%. If the performance of is higher than 0%, a coupon corresponding to the actual average performance of will be paid out with a maximum of 6.25% 1. If, conversely, the performance of is negative, no coupon will be paid out for the year. The gross actuarial return (before taxes and duties) is at least % 1 and at most 5.82% 1 in the scenario where the investor holds on to the Note until Maturity. Such return takes into account the issue price of 102% (including a placement fee of 2% and a fee for structuring and distributing the Notes of a maximum of 1% on an annual basis), any coupons possibly paid out and a redemption price at Maturity of 100%. 1 The coupon amounts shown in this document are gross amounts before the deduction of any taxes and duties (see "Taxation" below). 2 For the Coupon Payment Dates see the Technical Data on the last page. 3 For the Observation Dates see the Technical Data on the last page.

3 ING 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19 Examples showing how the coupon is calculated The figures below are purely hypothetical and serve only to inform investors about the calculation method of the gross annual coupons on the basis of different scenarios. The actual realisation of any of these scenarios in the future cannot be guaranteed. BEST-CASE SCENARIO Baseline scenario Worst-case scenario of of of Year % 5.50% Year % 6.25% Year % 5.90% Year % 4.00% Year % 4.40% Year % 5.70% simulation: 4.90% Year % 0.00% Year % 1.27% Year % 5.51% Year % 4.99% Year % 4.42% Year % 3.75% simulation: 2.88% Year % 0.00% Year % 0.00% Year % 0.00% Year % 0.00% Year % 0.00% Year 6-20% 0.00% simulation: -0.33% The actuarial return of these scenarios is a gross return, before taxes and duties, which takes account of the issue price of 102%. Risk class specific to ING Belgium SA/nv The model ING Belgium SA/nv uses to determine the risk class of a Structured Note analyses the trend of its price in different market scenarios (best-case, baseline, worst-case). This analysis is based on the extreme levels of the underlying observed historically on the market. The greater the price volatility, the higher the risk category. We differentiate between a total of seven risk classes, ranging from 0 (lowest risk) to 6 (highest risk). This model does not take into account certain major types of risk, such as the credit and liquidity risks inherent in ING Belgium SA/nv, or the market risk in the event of resale before the Maturity of the Note. The ING 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19 are in the risk class 2: Information subsequent to subscription After the end of the subscription period, ING Belgium SA/nv will communicate to investors via its website (ing.be) all important information relating to the ING 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19. The value of the Notes which is adapted weekly will also be accessible to investors via the internet (ing.be > Retail > Investments > Useful information > Net asset values and prices). In a later stage, it is possible that ING Belgium SA/nv will use other communication channels to correctly inform investors. 3

4 ING 6Y EUR Strategy Notes 02/19 More information Please read the Technical data on the last page. Risks Several types of risks are inherent in this Note: Risk of fluctuation in the value of the Notes (market risk) Certain parameters such as: - the prospect of a review of the Guarantor's rating, - the trend in interest rates on financial markets (a rise in market interest rates impacts negatively on the value of the Notes and a drop in market interest rates impacts positively on the value of the Notes), - the trend in the prices of the shares which make up (a drop in their prices entails a drop in the value of the Notes and a rise in the prices of the shares impacts positively on the value of the Notes), impact positively or negatively on the value of the Notes during their lifetime and entail a capital gain or a capital loss in the event of resale of the Notes by investors before their maturity. Insolvency risk of the Issuer and/or the Guarantor Investors are exposed to the Issuer's and/or the Guarantor's risk of insolvency (bankruptcy or default), which may result in the partial or total loss of the capital initially invested as well as any coupons due but unpaid (see Rating below: Technical data). Liquidity risk The Notes are listed on the Luxembourg stock exchange. Nonetheless such listing does not ensure the development of an active market allowing resale before Maturity. Save in exceptional circumstances, ING Belgium SA/nv will guarantee investors of market liquidity by offering investors a redemption price. Such redemption price is determined by ING Belgium SA/nv on the basis of models specific to it and take account of the current market parameters (see "Fluctuation risk of the value of the Notes" above). The redemption price could be lower than the nominal value of the Notes (capital loss risk). Under normal trading conditions, the difference between the buying price and the selling price on the market will be approximately 1.00%. Furthermore the price offered by ING Belgium SA/nv does not include brokerage frees, the stock exchange tax and any taxes (see "Technical data").
