INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS There are significant risks associated with the Notes including, but not limited to, counterparty risk, country risk, price risk and liquidity risk.

financial, legal, accounting and tax advisers about the risks associated with an investment in these Notes, the appropriate tools to analyse that investment, and the suitability of the investment in each investor s particular circumstances. No investor should purchase the Notes unless that investor understands and has sufficient financial resources to bear the price, market liquidity, structure and other risks associated with an investment in these Notes. Before entering into any transaction, investors should ensure that they fully understand the potential risks and rewards of that transaction and independently determine that the transaction is appropriate given their objectives, experience, financial and operational resources and other relevant circumstances. Investors should consider consulting with such advisers as they deem necessary to assist them in making these determinations. RESPONSIBILITY The Issuer accepts responsibility for the information contained in this Pricing Supplement. 6

Appendix 1 The section "Taxation Singapore" appearing from pages 152 to 156 of the Offering Circular shall be deleted in its entirety and substituted with the following: "SINGAPORE Interest and Other Payments Subject to the following paragraphs, under Section 12(6) of the ITA, the following payments are deemed to be derived from Singapore: (a) any interest, commission, fee or any other payment in connection with any loan or indebtedness or with any arrangement, management, guarantee, or service relating to any loan or indebtedness which is (i) borne, directly or indirectly, by a person resident in Singapore or a permanent establishment in Singapore (except in respect of any business carried on outside Singapore through a permanent establishment outside Singapore or any immovable property situated outside Singapore) or (ii) deductible against any income accruing in or derived from Singapore; or (b) any income derived from loans where the funds provided by such loans are brought into or used in Singapore. Such payments, where made to a person not known to the paying party to be a resident in Singapore for tax purposes, are generally subject to withholding tax in Singapore. The rate at which tax is to be withheld for such payments (other than those subject to the 15.0 per cent. final withholding tax described below) to non-resident persons (other than non-resident individuals) is 17.0 per cent. with effect from the year of assessment 2010. The applicable rate for non-resident individuals is 20.0 per cent. However, if the payment is derived by a person not resident in Singapore otherwise than from any trade, business, profession or vocation carried on or exercised by such person in Singapore and is not effectively connected with any permanent establishment in Singapore of that person, the payment is subject to a final withholding tax of 15.0 per cent. The rate of 15.0 per cent. may be reduced by applicable tax treaties. Notwithstanding the above, with effect from 29 December 2009, the said deeming provisions of Section 12(6) of the ITA would not apply to payments for any arrangement, management, service or guarantee relating to any loan or indebtedness, where: (i) the arrangement, management or service is performed outside Singapore; or (ii) the guarantee is provided, for or on behalf of a person resident in Singapore or a permanent establishment in Singapore by a nonresident person who: (i) (ii) is not an individual, is not incorporated, formed or registered in Singapore; and (A) does not by himself or in association with others, carry on a business in Singapore and does not have a permanent establishment in Singapore; or (B) carries on a business in Singapore (by himself or in association with others) or has a permanent establishment in Singapore, but (a) the arrangement, management or service is not performed through; or (b) the giving of the guarantee is not effectively connected with, that business carried on in Singapore or that permanent establishment.

Certain Singapore-sourced investment income derived by individuals from financial instruments is exempt from tax, including: (i) interest from debt securities derived on or after 1 January 2004; (ii) (iii) discount income (not including discount income arising from secondary trading) from debt securities derived on or after 17 February 2006; and prepayment fee, redemption premium and break cost from debt securities derived on or after 15 February 2007, except where such income is derived through a partnership in Singapore or is derived from the carrying on of a trade, business or profession. The terms "break cost", "prepayment fee" and "redemption premium" are defined in the ITA as follows: "break cost" means, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, any fee payable by the issuer of the securities on the early redemption of the securities, the amount of which is determined by any loss or liability incurred by the holder of the securities in connection with such redemption; "prepayment fee" means, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, any fee payable by the issuer of the securities on the early redemption of the securities, the amount of which is determined by the terms of the issuance of the securities; and "redemption premium" means, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, any premium payable by the issuer of the securities on the redemption of the securities upon their maturity. References to "break cost", "prepayment fee" and "redemption premium" in this Singapore tax disclosure have their same meaning as in the ITA. In addition, as the Programme as a whole is arranged by DBS Bank Ltd., The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, Singapore Branch and Standard Chartered Bank, Singapore Branch, each of which was, at the time of establishment of the Programme, a Financial Sector Incentive (Bond Market) Company (as defined in the ITA), any tranche of the Notes issued as debt securities under the Programme during the period from the date of this Offering Circular to 31 December 2018 (the "Relevant Notes") would be "qualifying debt securities" for the purposes of the ITA, to which the following treatment shall apply: (I) subject to certain prescribed conditions having been fulfilled (including the furnishing by the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller of Income Tax in Singapore (the "Comptroller") may direct, of a return on debt securities for the Relevant Notes in the prescribed format within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Relevant Notes as the Comptroller may require to the MAS and the inclusion by the Issuer in all offering documents relating to the Relevant Notes of a statement to the effect that where interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost from the Relevant Notes is derived by any person who is not resident in Singapore and who carries on any operation in Singapore through a permanent establishment in Singapore, the tax

exemption for qualifying debt securities shall not apply if the non-resident person acquires the Relevant Notes using funds from that person s operations through the Singapore permanent establishment), interest, discount income (not including discount income arising from secondary trading), prepayment fee, redemption premium and break cost (collectively, the "Specified Income") from the Relevant Notes, derived by a holder who is not resident in Singapore and who (aa) does not have any permanent establishment in Singapore or (bb) carries on any operation in Singapore through a permanent establishment in Singapore but the funds used by that person to acquire the Relevant Notes are not obtained from such person s operation through a permanent establishment in Singapore, are exempt from Singapore tax; (II) (III) subject to certain conditions having been fulfilled (including the furnishing by the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller may direct, of a return on debt securities for the Relevant Notes in the prescribed format within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Relevant Notes as the Comptroller may require to the MAS), Specified Income from the Relevant Notes derived by any company or a body of persons (as defined in the ITA) in Singapore is subject to tax at a concessionary rate of 10.0 per cent.; and subject to: (a) the Issuer including in all offering documents relating to the Relevant Notes a statement to the effect that any person whose interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost (i.e. the Specified Income) derived from the Relevant Notes is not exempt from tax shall include such income in a return of income made under the ITA; and (b) the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller may direct, furnishing to the MAS a return on debt securities for the Relevant Notes in the prescribed format within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Relevant Notes as the Comptroller may require, Specified Income derived from the Relevant Notes are not subject to withholding of tax by the Issuer. However, notwithstanding the foregoing: (1) if during the primary launch of any tranche of Relevant Notes, the Relevant Notes of such tranche are issued to fewer than four (4) persons and 50.0 per cent. or more of the issue of such Relevant Notes is beneficially held or funded, directly or indirectly, by related parties of the Issuer, such Relevant Notes would not qualify as "qualifying debt securities" (unless otherwise approved by the Minister of Finance or such person as he may appoint); and (2) even though a particular tranche of Relevant Notes are "qualifying debt securities", if, at any time during the tenure of such tranche of Relevant Notes, 50.0 per cent. or more of the issue of such Relevant Notes which are outstanding at any time during the life of their issue is held beneficially or funded, directly or indirectly, by any related party(ies) of the Issuer, Specified Income derived from such Relevant Notes held by: (a) any related party of the Issuer; or

(b) any other person where the funds used by such person to acquire such Relevant Notes are obtained, directly or indirectly, from any related party of the Issuer, shall not be eligible for the tax exemption or concessionary rate of tax described above. The term "related party", in relation to a person, means any other person who, directly or indirectly, controls that person, or is controlled, directly or indirectly, by that person, or where he and that other person, directly or indirectly, are under the control of a common person. Notwithstanding that the Issuer is permitted to make payments of Specified Income in respect of the Relevant Notes without deduction or withholding for tax under Section 45 or Section 45A of the ITA, any person whose Specified Income (whether it is interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost) derived from the Relevant Notes is not exempt from tax is required to include such income in a return of income made under the ITA. The Qualifying Debt Securities Plus Scheme ("QDS Plus Scheme") has also been introduced as an enhancement of the Qualifying Debt Securities Scheme. Under the QDS Plus Scheme, subject to certain conditions having been fulfilled (including the furnishing by the issuer or such other person as the Comptroller may direct, of a return on debt securities in respect of the qualifying debt securities in the prescribed format within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the qualifying debt securities as the Comptroller may require to the MAS), income tax exemption is granted on Specified Income derived by any investor from qualifying debt securities (excluding Singapore Government Securities) which: (a) are issued during the period from 16 February 2008 to 31 December 2018; (b) have an original maturity of not less than 10 years; (c) either (i) (ii) if they are issued before 28 June 2013, cannot be redeemed, called, exchanged or converted within 10 years from the date of their issue; or if they are issued on or after 28 June 2013, cannot have their tenure shortened to less than 10 years from the date of their issue, except under such circumstances as may be prescribed by regulations; and (d) cannot be re-opened with a resulting tenure of less than 10 years to the original maturity date. In addition, the tax exemption on Specified Income from QDS under the QDS Plus Scheme will not apply to any Specified Income derived from QDS issued on or after 28 June 2013 that is derived on or after the date on which the tenure of any portion of those QDS is shortened to less than 10 years from the date of their issue, where the shortening of the tenure occurs under such circumstances as may be prescribed by regulations. The MAS Circular FSD Cir 02/2013 entitled "Extension And Refinement Of Tax Concessions For Promoting The Debt Market" issued by the MAS on 28 June 2013 also provides details in respect of the refinement of the QDS Plus Scheme to allow debt securities with certain standard early termination clauses to qualify for the QDS Plus Scheme at the point of issuance. Examples

of standard early termination clauses include clauses which provide for early termination due to a taxation event, default event, change of control event, change of shareholding event or change in listing status of an issuer. Subsequently, should the debt securities be redeemed prematurely due to standard early termination clauses (i.e. before the 10th year), the income tax exemption granted to income exempt under the QDS Plus Scheme prior to redemption will not be clawed back. Instead, the QDS Plus status of the debt securities will be revoked prospectively for outstanding debt securities, if any. The outstanding debt securities may still enjoy tax benefits under the QDS scheme if the other conditions for QDS continue to be met. Debt securities with embedded options with economic value (such as call, put, conversion or exchange options) which can be triggered at specified prices or dates and are built into the bond s pricing at the onset) which can be exercised within 10 years from the date of issuance will continue to be excluded from the QDS Plus Scheme from the onset. This refinement of the QDS Plus Scheme takes effect for debt securities that are issued on or after 28 June 2013. In determining an investor s income that is to be exempted from tax under the QDS Plus Scheme, prescribed conditions apply in relation to how the investor s losses, expenses and capital allowances which are attributable to exempt income are to be treated. However, even though a particular tranche of the Relevant Notes are "qualifying debt securities" which qualify under the QDS Plus Scheme, if at any time during the tenure of such tranche of Relevant Notes, 50.0 per cent. or more of the issue of such Relevant Notes which are outstanding at any time during the life of their issue is held beneficially or funded, directly or indirectly, by any related party(ies) of the Issuer, Specified Income derived by: (a) any related party of the Issuer; or (b) any other person where the funds used by such person to acquire such Relevant Notes are obtained, directly or indirectly, from any related party of the Issuer, shall not be eligible for the tax exemption under the QDS Plus Scheme as described above. Capital Gains Any gains considered to be in the nature of capital made from the sale of the Notes will not be taxable in Singapore. However, any gains derived by any person from the sale of the Notes which are gains from any trade, business, profession or vocation carried on by that person, if accruing in or derived from Singapore, may be taxable as such gains are considered revenue in nature. Holders of the Notes who apply or are required to apply Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement ("FRS 39") for Singapore income tax purposes may be required to recognise gains or losses (not being gains or losses in the nature of capital) on the Notes, irrespective of disposal. Please see the section below on "Adoption of FRS 39 Treatment for Singapore Income Tax Purposes". Adoption of FRS 39 Treatment for Singapore Income Tax Purposes The IRAS has issued a circular entitled "Income Tax Implications arising from the adoption of FRS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition & Measurement" (the "FRS 39 Circular").

Legislative amendments to give effect to the FRS 39 Circular have been enacted in Section 34A of the ITA. The FRS 39 Circular and Section 34A of the ITA generally apply, subject to certain "opt-out" provisions, to taxpayers who are required to comply with FRS 39 for financial reporting purposes. Holders of the Notes who may be subject to the tax treatment under the FRS 39 Circular should consult their own accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax consequences of their acquisition, holding or disposal of the Notes.
