D. PRODUCT SUITABILITY WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR? This product is only suitable for investors who believe that the index level of the Index will increase and are seeking a short term leveraged exposure to the Index. You should consider carefully whether Warrants are suitable for you in light of your experience, objectives, financial position and other relevant circumstances. Warrants are not suitable for inexperienced investors. Key Product Features WHAT ARE YOU INVESTING IN? You are investing in cash settled call warrants that may allow you to benefit from increase in the index level of the Index, which is the S&P 500 Index. Information relating to the Index may be obtained at S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC s website at http://us.spindices.com/indices/equity/sp-500. Calculation of Cash Settlement Amount The Cash Settlement Amount, if positive, in respect of each Warrant will be paid in Singapore Dollars (subject as provided otherwise in the Conditions) equal to the amount calculated in accordance with the following formula: Cash Settlement Amount = [(Closing Level - Strike Level) x Conversion Ratio] x Exchange Rate WHAT WOULD YOU GAIN OR LOSE IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS? Best case scenario: The index level of the Index increases substantially resulting in a significant increase in the price of the Warrants. You would then sell the Warrants and realise a profit. The DMM is required to provide liquidity in the Warrants to ensure that there will generally be a market price available for the purchase and sale of the Warrants. Worst case scenario: If you buy the Warrants and the index level of the Index decreases sharply. If you have not sold the Warrants, you will lose your entire investment. E. KEY RISKS KEY RISKS WHAT ARE THE KEY RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT? Investment in the Warrants involves substantial risks, including market risk, liquidity risk and risk that the Issuer will be unable to satisfy its obligations under the Warrants. Investors should ensure that they understand the nature of all these risks before making a decision to invest in the Warrants. PLEASE REFER TO THE LISTING DOCUMENTS FOR A COMPLETE LIST OF RISKS The Risk Factors below are a summary of the Risk Factors set out in the Base Listing Document and the Supplemental Listing Document. Market Risks Market price of the Warrants may be affected by many factors Warrants are volatile instruments and are subject to considerable fluctuations in value due to, including but not limited to, the level and volatility of the Index, dividends and interest rate, the time remaining to expiry and the creditworthiness of the Issuer. Given only the futures contracts over the Index (but not the constituents of the Index) are trading during SGX-ST trading hours, the price of the Warrants will be directly affected by the price of such futures contracts (which may deviate from the last published index level). Further Information Please refer to the Information relating to the Index section in the Supplemental Listing Document Further Information Please refer to the Risk Factors section set out in the Base Listing Document and in the Supplemental Listing Document for a complete list of risks and details of the risks.

You may lose your entire investment Changes in the price of the level of the Index and the relevant futures contracts can be unpredictable, sudden and large, resulting in the Index or futures contracts moving in a direction which will negatively impact upon the return on investment. If the level of the Index reaches a level such that the Cash Settlement Amount at expiry is less than or equal to zero, you will lose your entire investment. Liquidity Risks The secondary market may be illiquid DMM may be the only market participant buying and selling the Warrants. Therefore, the secondary market for the Warrants may be limited and you may not be able to realise the value of the Warrants. Please note that the bid-ask spread increases with illiquidity. As the Warrants are only exercisable on the Expiry Date, you will not be able to exercise your Warrants to realise value in the event that the trading in the Warrants becomes illiquid. Product Specific Risks Trading in the Warrants may be suspended If trading in the shares or securities relating to or constituting the Index is suspended, trading of options or futures relating to the Index on any options or futures exchanges is suspended, or options or futures generally on any options and/or futures exchanges on which options or futures relating to the Index are traded is suspended, or if the Index for whatever reason is not calculated, trading in the Warrants will be suspended for a similar period. The value of certain index constituents may not be included in the closing level of the Index A level for the Index may be published by the Index Sponsor at a time when one or more shares comprised in the Index are not trading. If this occurs on a Valuation Date and there is no Market Disruption Event under the terms of the Warrants then the value of such shares will not be included in the closing level of the Index. Issuer may make adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Warrants You should note that an investment in the Warrants involves valuation risks in relation to the Index. The level of the Index may vary over time by reference to various factors, including changes in computation or composition. Certain events relating to the Index may require or permit the Issuer to make certain adjustments or amendments to the Conditions. However, the Issuer is not required to make an adjustment for every event that affects the Index and if an event occurs which does not require the Issuer to adjust the Conditions, the market price of the Warrants and the return upon exercise of the Warrants may be affected. You may be exposed to an exchange rate risk There may be an exchange rate risk where the Cash Settlement Amount is converted from a foreign currency into Singapore Dollars. Issuer Related Risks You are exposed to the credit risk of the Issuer The Warrants constitute direct, general and unsecured contractual obligations of the Issuer and of no other person, and rank on a parity with the Issuer s other unsecured contractual obligations and unsecured and unsubordinated debt other than indebtedness preferred by mandatory provisions of law. If you purchase the Warrants, you are relying upon the creditworthiness of the Issuer and have no rights under the Warrants against any other person. If the Issuer is unable to meet its obligations under the Warrants, you will lose your entire investment. The Issuer issues a large number of financial instruments, including Warrants, on a global basis and at any given time, the financial instruments outstanding may be substantial. A reduction in the rating, if any, accorded to the outstanding debt securities of the Issuer by any one of its rating agencies could result in a reduction in the trading value of the Warrants. The Issuer does not in any respect underwrite or guarantee the performance of any Warrant. As the Issuer is not incorporated in Singapore, any insolvency proceedings in respect of the Issuer will be subject to foreign insolvency laws and procedures. Conflicts of interest may arise from the overall activities of the Issuer or its affiliates The Issuer and any of its affiliates are diversified financial institutions that engage in a wide range of commercial and investment banking, brokerage, funds management, hedging transactions and investment and other activities for their own account or the account of others. In addition, the Issuer and any of its affiliates, in connection with their other business activities, may possess or acquire material information or publish or issue research reports about the Index. Such activities and information may involve or otherwise affect the Index in a manner that may cause consequences adverse to investors in the Warrants or otherwise create conflicts of interests in connection with the issue of Warrants by the Issuer. Hedging or market-making activities by the Issuer or its affiliates may affect the Warrants In connection with hedging or market-making activities or with respect to proprietary or other trading activities by the Issuer or its affiliates, the Issuer or its affiliates may enter into transactions in the Index or related derivatives which may affect the market price, liquidity or value of the Warrants and which may affect the interests of investors in the Warrants. F. FEES AND CHARGES WHAT ARE THE FEES AND CHARGES OF THIS INVESTMENT? Normal transaction and brokerage fees apply, similar to fees that you would pay for other transactions on SGX-ST.
