Exhibit C

EXECUTION VERSION

UK MiFIR product governance / Professional investors and ECPs target market

The Corporation does not fall under the scope of application of the UK MiFIR package. Consequently, the Corporation does not qualify as an “investment firm”, “manufacturer” or “distributor” for the purposes of UK MiFIR.

Solely for the purposes of the 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, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook (“COBS”) and professional clients as defined in UK MiFIR; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturer’s target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer’s target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression “manufacturer means Citigroup Global Markets Limited and the expression “UK MiFIR” means Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.

Calculation Amount divided by Reference Rate

 

Where:

 

Adjustment to Interest Payment Date, Early Redemption Date or Maturity Date:

  

If, due to Unscheduled Holiday or Valuation Postponement, the USD/JMD Determination Date in respect of a payment date is not the scheduled USD/JMD Determination Date in respect of a payment date, then such payment date shall be postponed by each Business Day for which the USD/JMD Determination Date is so postponed.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, no additional interest or other additional amounts shall be payable by the Corporation in the event that the relevant Interest Payment Date, the Early Redemption Date or the Maturity Date is adjusted in accordance with the Following Business Day Convention or these provisions.

 

Applicable Price Source Disruption Fallbacks:

 

In the event of a Price Source Disruption, the Determination Agent shall apply each of the following Price Source Disruption Fallbacks for the determination of the Reference Rate, in the following order, until the Reference Rate can be determined.

 

   

 1. Valuation  Postponement

 

 

 (As defined below)

 

 
   

 2. Determination Agent  Determination of Reference Rate

 

 

 (As defined below)

 

 
  

 

“Calculation Agent” means Citibank, N.A., London Branch.

 

“Cumulative Events” means except as provided below, in no event shall the total number of consecutive calendar days during which either (i) determination of the Reference Rate is deferred due to an Unscheduled Holiday, or (ii) a Valuation Postponement shall occur (or any combination of (i) and (ii)), exceed 14 consecutive calendar days in the aggregate. Accordingly, (x) if, upon the lapse of any such 14 calendar day period, an Unscheduled Holiday shall have occurred or be continuing on the day following such period that otherwise would have been a Business Day, then such day shall be deemed to be a USD/JMD Determination Date, and (y) if, upon the lapse of any such 14 calendar day period, a Price Source Disruption shall have occurred or be continuing on the day following such period on which the Reference Rate otherwise would be determined, then Valuation Postponement shall not apply and the Reference Rate shall be determined in accordance with the next Disruption Fallback.

 

4


  

“Deferral Period for Unscheduled Holiday” means, in the event a scheduled USD/JMD Determination Date is postponed to the following Business Day due to the occurrence of an Unscheduled Holiday, and as a consequence, the USD/JMD Determination Date has not occurred on or before the 14th consecutive day after the scheduled USD/JMD Determination Date (any such period being a “Deferral Period”), then the next day after the Deferral Period that is or would have been a Business Day but for the Unscheduled Holiday shall be deemed to be the USD/JMD Determination Date.

 

“Determination Agent” means Citibank N.A., New York.

 

“Determination Agent Determination of Reference Rate” means the relevant USD/JMD exchange rate as determined by the Determination Agent in its sole discretion, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures to produce a commercially reasonable result.

 

“Early Redemption Date” means the day on which the Notes become due and payable in accordance with Condition 9 (Events of Default).

 

“Following Business Day Convention” means that if any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the applicable payment shall be made on the next following Business Day (unless it would thereby fall into the next calendar month, in which event such date shall be brought forward to the immediately preceding Business Day), and no additional interest or other amounts will accrue or be payable by the Corporation in respect of any such postponed payment.

 

“Maximum Days of Postponement”: 14 calendar days.

 

“Price Source Disruption” means it becomes impossible to obtain the Reference Rate on the Valuation Date (or, if different, the day on which rates for that Valuation Date would, in the ordinary course, be published or announced by the relevant price source).

 

5


  

“Reference Rate” means in respect of a USD/JMD Determination Date, the USD/JMD arithmetic average of the Buying weighted average and Selling weighted average USD/JMD rates, expressed as the amount of Jamaican Dollar per one United States Dollar, as displayed under the Foreign Exchange Market section on the website of the Central Bank of Jamaica (http://www.boj.org.jm/), under subsection Daily FX Spot Trading Summary on the applicable USD/JMD Determination Date (or any successor or replacement page), and rounded to 2 decimal places.

 

If such rate is:

 

(i)discontinued and/or is no longer published by the Central Bank of Jamaica on any successor page; or

 

(ii)not indicative of the market standard rate (as determined in the sole discretion of the Determination Agent)

 

(clauses (i) and (iii), individually and collectively, the “Reference Rate Disruption Events”),

 

then the Reference Rate shall be determined by the Determination Agent, in its sole discretion, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures to produce a commercially reasonable result. For the avoidance of doubt, if any of the Reference Rate Disruption Events occurs or continues to exist, then the remedy specified in the preceding sentence shall supersede the Applicable Price Source Disruption Fallbacks specified above.

 

“Unscheduled Holiday” means a day that is not a Business Day and in respect of which the market was not aware of such fact (by means of a public announcement or by reference to other publicly available information) until a time later than 9:00 a.m. local time in Kingston two Business Days prior to the scheduled USD/JMD Determination Date.

 

“USD/JMD Determination Date” means two (2) Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, the Early Redemption Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Following Business Day Convention in the event of an Unscheduled Holiday, or if Valuation Postponement applies, such date on which the Price Source Disruption ceases, subject to the provisions in the Applicable Disruption Fallbacks.

 

“Valuation Date” means the USD/JMD Determination Date, subject to Valuation Postponement.

 

6


   “Valuation Postponement” means, for purposes of obtaining the Reference Rate, that the Reference Rate will be determined on the Business Day first succeeding the day on which the Price Source Disruption ceases to exist, unless the Price Source Disruption continues to exist (measured from the date, that, but for the occurrence of the Price Source Disruption, would have been the USD/JMD Determination Date) for a consecutive number of calendar days equal to the Maximum Days of Postponement. In such event, the Reference Rate will be determined on the next Business Day after the Maximum Days of Postponement in accordance with the next applicable Price Source Disruption Fallback.

24.  Early Redemption Amount(s) per Calculation Amount payable on event of default or other early redemption and/or the method of calculating the same (if required or if different from that set out in the Conditions):

   The Final Redemption Amount as determined in accordance with item 23. above plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as determined in accordance with item 15. above; provided that, for purposes of such determination, the USD/JMD Determination Date shall be the date that is two Business Days prior to the date upon which the Notes become due and payable.

UNITED STATES TAXATION

The following supplements the discussion under the “Tax Matters” section of the Prospectus regarding the United States federal income tax treatment of the Notes, and is subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth therein. Any tax disclosure in the Prospectus or this Final Terms is of a general nature only, is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any particular prospective investor. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to it of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Notes, including the effects of applicable United States federal, state, and local tax laws and non-U.S. tax laws and possible changes in tax laws.

Because the Notes are denominated in Jamaican Dollars, a United States holder of the Notes will generally be subject to special United States federal income tax rules governing foreign currency transactions, as described in the Prospectus in the last four paragraphs of “—Payments of Interest” under the “United States Holders” section. Pursuant to such rules, a United States holder should determine amounts received with respect to a Note (including principal and interest) by reference to the U.S. dollar value of the Jamaican Dollars amount of the payment, calculated at the currency exchange rate in effect on the date of payment. The U.S. dollar amount that is actually received by the United States holder may differ from the amount determined under the preceding sentence, since the U.S. dollar amount of the payment will be determined by reference to the Reference Rate as of the relevant Valuation Date. Accordingly, a United States holder of the Notes may recognize United States source foreign currency gain or loss in an amount equal to such difference (in addition to any foreign currency gain or loss otherwise recognized upon the receipt of an interest payment or a sale or retirement of the Notes). The U.S. Internal Revenue Service could take the position, however, that the amounts received by a United States holder in respect of a Note should be equal to the U.S. dollar amount that is actually received by the United States holder. Prospective United States holders of the Notes should consult their tax advisors regarding these rules.

Because a U.K. and Jamaican holiday (that is not also a U.S. federal holiday) falls on the Monday immediately following a scheduled interest payment date that falls on a Saturday, at least one of the intervals between interest payments will exceed one year. Under current law, the status of such interest is unclear, and interest on the Notes may, as a technical matter, not be “qualified stated interest” within the meaning of the relevant Treasury regulations. We, however, intend to treat interest on the Notes as issued without original issue discount for United States federal income tax reporting purposes. Please see the discussion in the Prospectus in “—Original Issue Discount—General” under the “United States Holders” section for more information.
