MiFID II Product Governance – Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval

process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target
market for the Notes is eligible counterparties, professional clients and retail clients, each as defined in
Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II");and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes are
appropriate, including investment advice, portfolio management, non-advised sales and pure execution
services. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should
take into consideration the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to
MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either
adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution
channels.

In case of Notes listed on the official list of and admitted to trading on the regulated market of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange or publicly offered in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Final Terms of
Notes will be displayed on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu). In the case of
Notes publicly offered in one or more member states of the European Economic Area other than the
Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Final Terms will be displayed on the website of BASF Group
(www.BASF.com).
