1 Promotional document ING Belgium International Finance (Luxembourg) 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 The product is a debt instrument issued by ING Belgium International Finance and guaranteed by ING Belgium. When subscribing to this product, you are lending money to the Issuer who undertakes to pay annual s on the Coupon Payment Date. The Issuer also undertakes to repay the Notes at 100% of their nominal value at End Maturity. In the event of bankruptcy or default by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, you might not receive the amounts to which you would have been entitled and lose the capital invested. This instrument is for investors with sufficient experience to understand the product parameters and with sufficient knowledge to assess, based on their personal financial situation, the advantages and risks inherent in an investment in this complex instrument, in particular knowledge of the underlying and interest rates. The ING Belgium International Finance (Luxembourg) 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 (in short ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17) are for investors looking for an investment: in the long term (6 years) which gives right to a 100% capital redemption by the Issuer at End Maturity, except in the case of bankruptcy or default by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor which offers the possibility of benefiting from a potentially high return (up to 7.27% gross) which will depend on the of a basket of 20 shares, equi-weighted and internationally diversified (in Europe, North America and Asia) Description of the fixing mechanism Each year a gross will be paid according to the (in percentage) of a basket of shares, with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 7.75% 1. This of the basket of shares will equal the arithmetical mean of the s of its component shares. The the basket or even its mean determines the rate of the gross paid out. The of each share is calculated by comparing its closing price three business days before the relevant Coupon Payment Date with its starting price. For each share, the starting level retained corresponds to its closing price on the Payment Date. The positive of each share is capped at 7.75% 1 and the negative is limited to -20%. By way of an example if the starting level of one of the shares in the basket corresponds to 100 and its closing price three business days before a Coupon Payment Date is 115, the 15% will be limited to 7.75% 1. If, conversely, the closing pride of such share three business days before a Coupon Payment Date is 60, the negative of -40% would be limited to -20%. Taking account of the issue price (i.e. 102%), any s potentially paid out and a redemption price at End Maturity of 100%, the gross actuarial return is at least 1.15% and at most 7.27% in the scenario where the investor holds the product until End Maturity. 1 The s amounts shown in this document are gross figures before the deduction of any taxes and duties (see "Taxation" below).

2 ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 The basket of shares is made up as follows: Name Stock market Sector ISIN code ASTELLAS PHARMA Tokyo CARREFOUR SA Paris DEUTSCHE TELEKOM AG-REG Frankfurt JP FR DE In line with ING's investment strategy, the basket is made up of defensive shares from the, Consumer Goods and sectors. The aforementioned sectors are considered as defensive in ING's current strategy given their low cyclical nature. This means that the impact on the price will be reduced in the event of an economic slowdown. Our current valuation of these sectors indicates that they are possibly "under-evaluated" and that these sectors incorporate any unfavourable information in their current price. Therefore, the levels of these sectors are relatively low, which allows for a higher growth potential. ELI LILLY & CO New York US Selection was based on the criteria of high dividends and/or major stock market capitalisations. ENEL SPA Rome FUJITSU LTD Tokyo GLAXOSMITHKLINE PLC London Utilities Information technology IT JP GB Furthermore, at least 2/3 of the stock market analysts who monitor such shares with the various financial institutions must have issued a positive or neutral opinion on the said shares. Investors can enquire at any branch of ING in Belgium to obtain information about the sectors preferred by ING Belgium and recommendations for each share in the basket.

The greater the historical price volatility, the higher the risk class. We differentiate between a total of seven risk classes, ranging from 0 (lowest risk) to 6 (highest risk). The ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 are in the risk class 2: Please note that the specific model used by ING Belgium SA/nv to determine the risk class does not take into account certain major risk classes, such as the credit and liquidity risks inherent in ING Belgium SA/nv, or the market risk in the event of divestment before the End Maturity of the Note. ING Belgium SA/nv will communicate to investors via its website ( all the regularly updated information relating to the ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 as well as to the basket of shares, including any major change to the risk profile as well as the value of the product. Subsequently, ING Belgium SA/nv may use one or several other communication channels to inform investors correctly.

5 ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 Risks Several types of risks are inherent in this Note: Share price trends The value of the Notes is correlated to changes in the price of the underlying shares which make up the basket. A drop in their price could lead to a drop in the price of the Notes. A rise in share prices could impact positively on their price of the Notes. At End Maturity, even if the price of the shares drops, the Notes will be redeemed at 100% of their nominal value (except in the case of bankruptcy or default by the Issuer and/or the Guarantor). Market interest rate trends The price of the Notes is correlated to market interest rate fluctuations. In case of resale before End Maturity, a rise in interest rates can impact negatively on the market price of the Notes and a drop in interest rates can impact positively on the value of the Notes. Issuer/Guarantor Investors are exposed to the Issuer's and 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 s which could yet be outstanding (see rating below: technical data). Currency The Notes are issued in euros. This presents certain exchange rate risks if an investor's financial activities occur mainly in a currency other than the euro. Liquidity Despite the listing of the Notes on the Luxembourg stock exchange and daily fixing of an indicative price, the market could be rather illiquid. In addition, on the secondary market it will only be possible to sell the Notes once a week. Furthermore, if an investor sells his/ her Notes on the secondary market, the amount received could be lower than the issue price (capital loss risk). Before subscribing to the Notes, potential investors should read the Prospectus and in particular the "Risk Factors" section (Chapter 1 of the Base Prospectus) and its summary. Prospectus The Base Prospectus relating to the EUR 10,000,000,000 Issuance Programme of the Issuer was approved by the CSSF (Financial Sector Supervisory Commission) in Luxembourg on 5 July The prospectus consists of the Base Prospectus as well as the Final Terms of the ING 6Y EUR Performance Notes 11/17 of 30 September The prospectus is available only in English, with the exception of the summary of the Base Prospectus, which is also available in French.
