  (1) Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used in the general business of KfW. Upon issuance of the Notes, the Issuer will simultaneously allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds of the Notes (which proceeds may be converted into Euros) to an internal account used to track the allocation of funds from KfW’s “green bond” issuances. Amounts matching requests for disbursements under KfW’s environmental investment program, “Erneuerbare Energien – Standard” (“Renewable Energies – Standard”), will be deducted from the portion of the balance of this internal account relating to the Notes on an ongoing basis, starting with the beginning of the calendar year in which the Notes are issued and continuing until the portion of the balance relating to the Notes has been completely reduced. As discussed below, the Notes will be reported on KfW’s website as fully allocated when requests for disbursements in the aggregate total the net proceeds from the Notes.

KfW’s financing program, “Renewable Energies – Standard”, aims to promote the development of electricity and heat from renewable resources. Measures financed through this program may include but are not limited to the following:

 

   

Photovoltaic equipment;

 

   

Wind power plants and repowering measures;

 

   

Hydro-electric power stations;

 

   

Equipment for the generation and use of biogas;

 

   

Equipment for the geothermal generation of electricity.

The common objective of all projects financed under this program is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Equipment for the use of fossil fuels or nuclear power is not financed under the program.

Payment of principal of and interest on the Notes will be made from KfW’s general funds and will not be linked to the performance of any projects financed under KfW’s program “Renewable Energies – Standard”.

Following the issuance of the Notes and until the Notes have been reported as fully allocated, KfW intends to regularly monitor the internal account in terms of disbursements under KfW’s program “Renewable Energies – Standard” and report on these disbursements on a quarterly basis on KfW’s website. Unless otherwise indicated, information available on or accessible through KfW’s website is not incorporated herein by reference.

If KfW’s use of the net proceeds from the Notes is a factor in your decision to invest in the Notes, you should consider the foregoing discussion and consult with your counsel or other advisors before making an investment in the Notes.

 

  (2) United States Tax Considerations

Please see the description under the heading “United States Taxation — United States Holders” in the accompanying prospectus for a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning the Notes.

 

  (3) Delivery and Settlement

We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the closing date, which will be on the fifth business day following the date of pricing (“T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days (since September 5, 2017), unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes on the date of pricing or succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will settle in T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement; such purchasers should also consult their own advisors in this regard.

Price to Public: 100%, plus accrued interest, if any, from 28 September 2017
