Notes:

⁽¹⁾ Per EUR1,000 or GBP1,000 in principal amount of such series of EUR Notes or GBP Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase. The Reference Yield and the Total Consideration for each series of EUR Notes and GBP Notes were determined at 9:30 a.m., New York City time (2:30 p.m., London time), on 26 November 2024, as described in the Offer to Purchase.  The Total Consideration already includes the Early Tender Payment of EUR 30 per EUR 1,000 principal amount of EUR Notes or GBP 30 per GBP 1,000 principal amount of GBP Notes and assumes a settlement date of 3 December 2024.

As announced on 12 November 2024 and earlier today, the Offerors will spend up to $3,500,000,000 in combined aggregate purchase price (excluding Accrued Interest) in the Tender Offers.

The EUR/GBP Offeror has elected to exercise its right to have an early settlement date, and the settlement date for all EUR Notes or GBP Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Time and accepted for purchase is expected to be on 3 December 2024 (the "Early Settlement Date"). Holders will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase from the applicable last interest payment date up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.

As previously announced, according to information provided by Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Tender and Information Agent for the EUR/GBP Tender Offers, based on valid EUR/GBP Tender Instructions received and not withdrawn as at the Early Tender Time, EUR 95,237,000 in aggregate principal amount of EUR Notes and GBP 196,059,000 aggregate principal amount of GBP Notes had been validly tendered pursuant to the EUR/GBP Tender Offers.

The EUR/GBP Offeror will accept for purchase all of the EUR Notes and GBP Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Time.

Holders of the Notes who tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time and whose Notes were accepted for purchase are eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration.

The EUR/GBP Tender Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on 11 December 2024 (such time and date, the "Expiration Time"), or any other date and time to which the EUR/GBP Offeror extends the applicable EUR/GBP Tender Offer. Because the Offer Cap has been reached, the EUR/GBP Offeror does not expect to accept for purchase any EUR Notes or GBP Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time.

All Notes repurchased pursuant to the EUR/GBP Tender Offers will be cancelled.
