GS Finance Corp.

Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due October 16, 2028

Principal at Risk Securities

The securities are unsecured notes issued by GS Finance Corp. and guaranteed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. The amount that you will be paid on your securities is based on the performance of the S&P 500® Index. The securities may be automatically called on the call observation date.

Your securities will be automatically called if the index closing value on the call observation date is greater than or equal to the initial index value (set on the pricing date), resulting in a payment on the call payment date equal to at least $1,086.00 (set on the pricing date). No payments will be made after the call payment date.

At maturity, if not previously called, (i) if the final index value (the index closing value on the valuation date) is greater than the initial index value, the return on your securities will be positive and equal to the product of the leverage factor of 125.00% multiplied by the index percent increase (the percentage increase in the final index value from the initial index value); (ii) if the final index value is equal to or less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level (80.00% of the initial index value), you will receive the principal amount of your securities; or (iii) if the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, you will receive a payment at maturity based on the index performance factor (the quotient of the final index value divided by the initial index value).

At maturity, for each $1,000 principal amount of your securities you will receive an amount in cash equal to:

•If the final index value is greater than the initial index value, the sum of (i) $1,000 plus (ii) the product of (a) $1,000 times (b) 1.25 times (c) the index percent increase;

•If the final index value is equal to or less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, $1,000.00; or

•If the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, the product of (i) $1,000 times (ii) the index performance factor. Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment.

The securities are for investors who seek a return of at least 8.60% if their securities are automatically called or the potential to earn 125.00% of any positive return of the underlying index if their securities are not automatically called, in exchange for the risk of losing all or a significant portion of the principal amount of their securities if the securities remain outstanding to maturity.

Estimated Value of Your Securities

The estimated value of your securities at the time the terms of your securities are set on the pricing date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (GS&Co.) and taking into account our credit spreads) is expected to be in the range (the estimated value range) specified on the cover of this pricing supplement (per $1,000 principal amount), which is less than the original issue price. The value of your securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted; however, the price (not including GS&Co.’s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would initially buy or sell securities (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) and the value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise is equal to approximately the estimated value of your securities at the time of pricing, plus an additional amount (initially equal to $ per $1,000 principal amount).

The price (not including GS&Co.’s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your securities (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) will equal approximately the sum of (a) the then-current estimated value of your securities (as determined by reference to GS&Co.’s pricing models) plus (b) any remaining additional amount (the additional amount will decline to zero from the time of pricing through , as described below). On and after , the price (not including GS&Co.’s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your securities (if it makes a market) will equal approximately the then-current estimated value of your securities determined by reference to such pricing models.

With respect to the $ initial additional amount:

•$ will decline to zero on a straight-line basis from the time of pricing through ; and

•$ will decline to zero on a straight-line basis from through .

Investment Summary

The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due October 16, 2028 (the “securities”) do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities provide an opportunity to earn a fixed call payment of at least $1,086.00 (set on the pricing date) that will be paid on the call payment date (and the securities will be automatically called and no further payments will be made) if the closing value of the underlying index on the call observation date is greater than or equal to the initial index value. If the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the closing level of the underlying index on the valuation date is greater than the initial index value, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus the leveraged upside payment. If the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the closing level of the underlying index on the valuation date is equal to or less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level (80.00% of the initial index value), investors will receive the stated principal amount. However, if the securities have not been automatically called prior to maturity and the closing value of the underlying index on the valuation date is less than the downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the decline in the underlying index on a 1-to-1 basis, and will receive a payment at maturity that is less than 80.00% of the stated principal amount of the securities and could be zero. Accordingly, investors in the securities must be willing to accept the risk of losing their entire initial investment.

Maturity:	Approximately 4 years (unless automatically called)
Automatic call feature:	If, as measured on the call observation date, the index closing value is greater than or equal to the initial index value, your securities will be automatically called and you will receive for each $1,000 principal amount an amount in cash equal to at least $1,086.00 (set on the pricing date). No further payments will be made on the securities following an automatic call.
Payment at maturity:	•If the final index value is greater than the initial index value, the sum of (i) $1,000 plus (ii) the leveraged upside payment; •If the final index value is equal to or less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, $1,000; or •If the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, the product of (i) $1,000 times (ii) the index performance factor
Leveraged upside payment:	$1,000 × leverage factor × index percent increase

Key Investment Rationale

The securities do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the securities are for investors who seek a return of at least 8.60% if their securities are automatically called or the potential to earn 125.00% of any positive return of the underlying index if their securities are not automatically called, in exchange for the risk of losing all or a significant portion of the principal amount of their securities if the securities remain outstanding to maturity. The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how the payment on the call payment date (if the securities are automatically called) and the payment at maturity (if the securities have not been automatically called) are calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the securities may or may not be automatically called, a positive return on the securities may never be realized and the payment at maturity may be less than 80.00% of the stated principal amount of the securities and may be zero.

Scenario 1: the securities are automatically called prior to maturity	This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes at or above the initial index value on the call observation date. As a result, the securities are automatically called for at least $1,086.00 (set on the pricing date). If the securities are automatically called, no further payments will be made.
Scenario 2: the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and investors receive principal back and a positive return at maturity	This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the call observation date. Consequently, the securities are not automatically called and no call payment is made. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes above the initial index value. At maturity, investors will receive the stated principal amount plus a return reflecting 125.00% of the increase in the value of the underlying index.
Scenario 3: the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and investors receive principal back	This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the call observation date. Consequently, the securities are not automatically called and no call payments are made. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes at or below the initial index value but at or above the downside threshold level. At maturity, investors will receive the stated principal amount.
Scenario 4: the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and investors suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity	This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the call observation date. Consequently, the securities are not automatically called and no call payments are made. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes below the downside threshold level. At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to the product of the stated principal amount times the index performance factor. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 80.00% of the stated principal amount and could be zero.

Hypothetical Examples

The below examples are based on the following terms:

Stated principal amount:	$1,000 per security
Hypothetical initial index value:	5,500.00
Leverage factor:	125%
Hypothetical downside threshold level:	3,440.00 (80.00% of the initial index value)

How to determine the amount payable, if any, on the call payment date:

The example below assumes that the hypothetical amount payable on the call payment date with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of your securities will be equal to $1,086.00 if the underlying index closes at or above the initial index value on the call observation date.

Hypothetical Call Observation Date	Index Closing Value	Amount Payable on the Call Payment Date (per security)
#1	5,700.00 (at or above initial index value)	$1,086.00

On the hypothetical call observation date, the underlying index closes at or above the initial index value. Therefore, the securities are automatically called and the amount payable on the call payment date equals $1,086.00.

Your securities will not be automatically called, and you will not receive a payment on the call payment date, if the index closing value is below the initial index value on the call observation date.

How to calculate the payment at maturity (if the securities have not been automatically called):

Example	Index Closing Value (Final Index Value)	Payment at Maturity (per security)
#1	6,050.00 (above the initial index value)	$1,000 + leveraged upside payment = $1,000 + ($1,000 × 125% × 10%) = $1,125
#2	3,600.00 (at orbelow the initial index value but at or above the downside threshold level)	$1,000.00
#3	2,750.00 (below the downside threshold level)	$1,000 × the index performance factor = $1,000 × (2,750.00 / 5,500.00) = $500

In example #1, the final index value is above the initial index value. Therefore, investors receive at maturity the stated principal amount of the securities plus a return reflecting 125.00% of the increase in the value of the underlying index.

In example #2, the final index value is at or below the initial index value but is at or above the downside threshold level. Therefore, investors receive at maturity the stated principal amount of the securities.

In example #3, the final index value is below the downside threshold level. Therefore, investors are exposed to the downside performance of the underlying index at maturity and receive at maturity an amount equal to the stated principal amount times the index performance factor.

If the final index value is below the downside threshold level, you will be exposed to the downside performance of the underlying index at maturity, and your payment at maturity will be less than $800.00 per security and could be zero.

Additional Hypothetical Examples

The following examples are provided for purposes of illustration only. They should not be taken as an indication or prediction of future investment results and merely are intended to illustrate (i) the impact that various hypothetical index closing values on the call observation date could have on the amount payable, if any, on the call payment date and (ii) the impact that various hypothetical index closing values on the valuation date could have on the payment at maturity assuming all other variables remain constant.

The examples below are based on a range of index closing values that are entirely hypothetical; no one can predict what the index closing value will be on any day throughout the life of your securities, what the index closing value will be on the call observation date and what the final index value will be on the valuation date. The underlying index has been highly volatile in the past — meaning that the index closing value has changed considerably in relatively short periods — and its performance cannot be predicted for any future period.

The information in the following examples reflects hypothetical rates of return on the offered securities assuming that they are purchased on the original issue date at the stated principal amount and held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as the case may be. If you sell your securities in a secondary market prior to the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as the case may be, your return will depend upon the market value of your securities at the time of sale, which may be affected by a number of factors that are not reflected in the examples below such as interest rates, the volatility of the underlying index, the creditworthiness of GS Finance Corp., as issuer, and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor. The information in the examples also reflects the key terms and assumptions in the box below.

Key Terms and Assumptions
Stated principal amount	$1,000
Leverage factor	125.00%
Downside threshold level	80.00% of the initial index value
Neither a market disruption event nor a non-index business day occurs on the originally scheduled call observation date or the originally scheduled valuation date
No change in or affecting any of the underlying index stocks or the method by which the underlying index publisher calculates the underlying index Securities purchased on original issue date at the stated principal amount and held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date

Moreover, we have not yet set the initial index value that will serve as the baseline for determining if the securities will be called, the index performance factor and the amount that we will pay on your securities, if any, on the call payment date or at maturity. We will not do so until the pricing date. As a result, the actual initial index value may differ substantially from the index closing values prior to the pricing date.

For these reasons, the actual performance of the underlying index over the life of your securities and the actual index closing value on the call observation date, may bear little relation to the hypothetical examples shown below or to the historical index closing values shown elsewhere in this pricing supplement. For information about the historical values of the underlying index during recent periods, see “The Underlying Index — Historical Index Closing Values” below. Before investing in the offered securities, you should consult publicly available information to determine the values of the underlying index between the date of this pricing supplement and the date of your purchase of the offered securities.

Principal at Risk Securities

Also, the hypothetical examples shown below do not take into account the effects of applicable taxes. Because of the U.S. tax treatment applicable to your securities, tax liabilities could affect the after-tax rate of return on your securities to a comparatively greater extent than the after-tax return on the underlying index stocks.

Hypothetical Payment on the Call Payment Date

The example below assumes that the hypothetical payment that we would pay on the call payment date with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of your securities will be equal to $1,086.00 if the index closing value is greater than or equal to the initial index value on the call observation date.

If your securities are automatically called on the call observation date (i.e., on the call observation date the index closing value is equal to or greater than the initial index value), the cash payment that we would deliver for each $1,000 principal amount of your securities on the call payment date would be $1,086.00. If, for example, the index closing value on the call observation date was determined to be 125.00% of the initial index value, your securities would be automatically called and the cash payment that we would deliver on your securities on the call payment date would be 108.60% of the principal amount of your securities or $1,086.00 for each $1,000 of securities. No further payments would be made on the securities following an automatic call. You will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying index.

Hypothetical Payment at Maturity

If the securities are not automatically called on the call observation date (i.e., on the call observation date the index closing value is less than the initial index value), the amount we would deliver for each $1,000 principal amount of your securities on the maturity date will depend on the performance of the underlying index on the valuation date, as shown in the table below. The table below assumes that the securities have not been automatically called on the call observation date and reflects hypothetical amounts that you could receive on the stated maturity date. The values in the left column of the table below represent hypothetical final index values and are expressed as percentages of the initial index value. The amounts in the right column represent the hypothetical payments at maturity, based on the corresponding hypothetical final index value, and are expressed as percentages of the stated principal amount of a security (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of a percent). Thus, a hypothetical payment at maturity of 100.000% means that the value of the cash payment that we would deliver for each $1,000 of the outstanding stated principal amount of the offered securities on the stated maturity date would equal 100.000% of the stated principal amount of a security, based on the corresponding hypothetical final index value and the assumptions noted above.

The Securities Have Not Been Automatically Called

Hypothetical Final Index Value (as Percentage of Initial Index Value)	Hypothetical Payment at Maturity (as Percentage of Stated Principal Amount)
200.000%	225.000%
150.000%	162.500%

Principal at Risk Securities

If, for example, the securities have not been automatically called on the call observation date and the final index value were determined to be 25.000% of the initial index value, the payment at maturity that we would deliver on your securities would be 25.000% of the stated principal amount of your securities, as shown in the table above. As a result, if you purchased your securities on the original issue date at the stated principal amount and held them to the stated maturity date, you would lose 75.000% of your investment (if you purchased your securities at a premium to stated principal amount you would lose a correspondingly higher percentage of your investment). If the final index value were determined to be zero, you would lose your entire investment in the securities.

The payments on the call payment date or at maturity shown above are entirely hypothetical; they are based on market prices for the underlying index stocks that may not be achieved on the call observation date or the valuation date and on assumptions that may prove to be erroneous. The actual market value of your securities on the stated maturity date or at any other time, including any time you may wish to sell your securities, may bear little relation to the hypothetical payments at maturity shown above, and these amounts should not be viewed as an indication of the financial return on an investment in the offered securities. The hypothetical payments on securities held to the stated maturity date in the examples above assume you purchased your securities at their stated principal amount and have not been adjusted to reflect the actual issue price you pay for your securities. The return on your investment (whether positive or negative) in your securities will be affected by the amount you pay for your securities. If you purchase your securities for a price other than the stated principal amount, the return on your investment will differ from, and may be significantly lower than, the hypothetical returns suggested by the above examples. Please read “Risk Factors — The Market Value of Your Securities May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors” below.

Payments on the securities are economically equivalent to the amounts that would be paid on a combination of other instruments. For example, payments on the securities are economically equivalent to a combination of an interest-bearing bond bought by the holder (although the securities do not pay interest) and one or more options entered into between the holder and us (with one or more implicit option premiums paid over time). The discussion in this paragraph does not modify or affect the terms of the securities or the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the securities, as described elsewhere in this pricing supplement.

We cannot predict the actual index closing values of the underlying index on any day, the final index value or what the market value of your securities will be on any particular index business day, nor can we predict the relationship between the index closing value and the market value of your securities at any time prior to the stated maturity date. The actual amount that you will receive on the call payment date or the maturity date, if any, and the rate of return on the offered securities will depend on whether or not the securities are automatically called and the actual initial index value and the amount payable if the securities are automatically called, which we will set on the pricing date, and on the actual index closing value on the call observation date and the actual final index value determined by the calculation agent as described above. Moreover, the assumptions on which the hypothetical examples are based may turn out to be inaccurate. Consequently, the amount to be paid in respect of your securities on the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as applicable, may be very different from the information reflected in the examples above.

Risk Factors

An investment in your securities is subject to the risks described below, as well as the risks and considerations described in the accompanying prospectus, in the accompanying prospectus supplement, under “Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Securities” in the accompanying underlier supplement no. 41 and under “Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes” in the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999. You should carefully review these risks and considerations as well as the terms of the securities described herein and in the accompanying prospectus, the accompanying prospectus supplement, the accompanying underlier supplement no. 41 and the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999. Your securities are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, your securities are not equivalent to investing directly in the underlying index stocks, i.e., the stocks comprising the underlying index to which your securities are linked. You should carefully consider whether the offered securities are appropriate given your particular circumstances.

Risks Related to Structure, Valuation and Secondary Market Sales

You May Lose Your Entire Investment in the Securities

You can lose your entire investment in the securities. Assuming your securities are not automatically called on the call observation date, the cash payment on your securities, if any, on the stated maturity date will be based on the performance of the S&P 500® Index as measured from the initial index value set on the pricing date to the index closing value on the valuation date. If the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, you will lose a significant portion of your investment, equivalent to 1.00% of the stated principal amount of your securities for every 1.00% decline in the index value over the term of the securities. Thus, you may lose your entire investment in the securities.

Also, the market price of your securities prior to the stated maturity date may be significantly lower than the purchase price you pay for your securities. Consequently, if you sell your securities before the stated maturity date, you may receive far less than the amount of your investment in the securities.

The Securities Are Subject to the Credit Risk of the Issuer and the Guarantor

Although the return on the securities will be based on the performance of the underlying index, the payment of any amount due on the securities is subject to the credit risk of GS Finance Corp., as issuer of the securities, and the credit risk of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor of the securities. The securities are our unsecured obligations. Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the securities, and therefore investors are subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market’s view of our creditworthiness. Similarly, investors are dependent on the ability of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor of the securities, to pay all amounts due on the securities, and therefore are also subject to its credit risk and to changes in the market’s view of its creditworthiness. See “Description of the Notes We May Offer — Information About Our Medium-Term Notes, Series F Program — How the Notes Rank Against Other Debt” on page S-3 of the accompanying prospectus supplement and “Description of Debt Securities We May Offer— Guarantee by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.” on page 67 of the accompanying prospectus.

The Amount You Will Receive on the Call Payment Date Will Be Capped

Regardless of the index closing value on the call observation date, the amount you may receive on the call payment date is capped and you will not benefit from any increase in the index closing value above the initial index value on the call observation date. If your securities are automatically called on the call observation date, the maximum payment you will receive for each $1,000 face amount of your securities will be at least $1,086.00 (set on the pricing date).

Your Securities Are Subject to Automatic Redemption

We will automatically call and redeem all, but not part, of your securities on the call payment date, if, as measured on the call observation date, the index closing value is greater than or equal to the initial index value. No further payments will be made on the securities following an automatic call. Therefore, the term

PS-11

October 2024

GS Finance Corp.

Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due October 16, 2028

Principal at Risk Securities

for your securities may be reduced to as short as approximately twelve months after the original issue date. You may not be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are called prior to maturity. For the avoidance of doubt, if your securities are automatically called, no discounts, commissions or fees described herein will be rebated or reduced.

The Amount You Will Receive on the Call Payment Date or on the Stated Maturity Date is Not Linked to the Index Closing Value at Any Time Other Than on the Call Observation Date or the Valuation Date, as the Case May Be

The amount you will receive on the call payment date, if any, will be paid only if the index closing value is greater than or equal to the initial index value on the call observation date. Therefore, the index closing value on dates other than the call observation date will have no effect on any amount paid in respect of your securities on the call payment date. In addition, the amount you will receive on the stated maturity date, if any, will be based on the index closing value on the valuation date. Therefore, for example, if the final index value dropped precipitously on the valuation date, the amount paid on the securities would be significantly less than it would otherwise have been had the amount been linked to the index closing value prior to such drop. Although the actual index closing value on the call payment date, stated maturity date or at other times during the life of the securities may be higher than the index closing value on the call observation date or the valuation date, you will not benefit from the index closing value on any date other than on the call observation date or the valuation date.

The Return on Your Securities May Change Significantly Despite Only a Small Incremental Change in the Value of the Underlying Index

If your securities are not automatically called and the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, you will lose all or a significant portion of your investment in the securities. This means that while a drop of up to 20.00% between the initial index value and the final index value will not result in a loss of principal on the securities, a decrease in the final index value to less than 80.00% of the initial index value will result in a loss of a significant portion of the stated principal amount of the securities despite only a small incremental change in the value of the underlying index.

The Return on Your Securities Will Not Reflect Any Dividends Paid on the Underlying Index Stocks

The underlying index publisher calculates the value of the underlying index by reference to the prices of its underlying index stocks, without taking account of the value of dividends paid on those underlying index stocks. Therefore, the return on your securities will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the underlying index stocks and received the dividends paid on those underlying index stocks. You will not receive any dividends that may be paid on any of the underlying index stocks by the applicable underlying index stock issuer. See “—Investing in the securities is Not Equivalent to Investing in the Underlying Index; You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Underlying Index Stock” below for additional information.

The Estimated Value of Your Securities At the Time the Terms of Your Securities Are Set On the Pricing Date (as Determined By Reference to Pricing Models Used By GS&Co.) Is Less Than the Original Issue Price Of Your Securities

The original issue price for your securities exceeds the estimated value of your securities as of the time the terms of your securities are set on the pricing date, as determined by reference to GS&Co.’s pricing models and taking into account our credit spreads. Such estimated value on the pricing date is set forth above under “Estimated Value of Your Securities”; after the pricing date, the estimated value as determined by reference to these models will be affected by changes in market conditions, the creditworthiness of GS Finance Corp., as issuer, the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group Inc., as guarantor, and other relevant factors. The price at which GS&Co. would initially buy or sell your securities (if GS&Co. makes a market, which it is not obligated to do), and the value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise, also exceeds the estimated value of your securities as determined by reference to these models. As agreed by GS&Co. and the distribution participants, this

PS-12

October 2024

GS Finance Corp.

Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due October 16, 2028

Principal at Risk Securities

excess (i.e., the additional amount described under “Estimated Value of Your Securities”) will decline to zero over the period from the date hereof through the applicable date set forth above under “Estimated Value of Your Securities”. Thereafter, if GS&Co. buys or sells your securities it will do so at prices that reflect the estimated value determined by reference to such pricing models at that time. The price at which GS&Co. will buy or sell your securities at any time also will reflect its then current bid and ask spread for similar sized trades of structured securities.

In estimating the value of your securities as of the time the terms of your securities are set on the pricing date, as disclosed above under “Estimated Value of Your Securities”, GS&Co.’s pricing models consider certain variables, including principally our credit spreads, interest rates (forecasted, current and historical rates), volatility, price-sensitivity analysis and the time to maturity of the securities. These pricing models are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. As a result, the actual value you would receive if you sold your securities in the secondary market, if any, to others may differ, perhaps materially, from the estimated value of your securities determined by reference to our models due to, among other things, any differences in pricing models or assumptions used by others. See “— The Market Value of Your Securities May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors” below.

The difference between the estimated value of your securities as of the time the terms of your securities are set on the pricing date and the original issue price is a result of certain factors, including principally the underwriting discount and commissions, the expenses incurred in creating, documenting and marketing the securities, and an estimate of the difference between the amounts we pay to GS&Co. and the amounts GS&Co. pays to us in connection with your securities. We pay to GS&Co. amounts based on what we would pay to holders of a non-structured security with a similar maturity. In return for such payment, GS&Co. pays to us the amounts we owe under your securities.

In addition to the factors discussed above, the value and quoted price of your securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted. If GS&Co. makes a market in the securities, the price quoted by GS&Co. would reflect any changes in market conditions and other relevant factors, including any deterioration in our creditworthiness or perceived creditworthiness or the creditworthiness or perceived creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. These changes may adversely affect the value of your securities, including the price you may receive for your securities in any market making transaction. To the extent that GS&Co. makes a market in the securities, the quoted price will reflect the estimated value determined by reference to GS&Co.’s pricing models at that time, plus or minus its then current bid and ask spread for similar sized trades of structured securities (and subject to the declining excess amount described above).

Furthermore, if you sell your securities, you will likely be charged a commission for secondary market transactions, or the price will likely reflect a dealer discount. This commission or discount will further reduce the proceeds you would receive for your securities in a secondary market sale.

There is no assurance that GS&Co. or any other party will be willing to purchase your securities at any price and, in this regard, GS&Co. is not obligated to make a market in the securities. See “— Your Securities May Not Have an Active Trading Market” below.

The Market Value of Your Securities May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors

When we refer to the market value of your securities, we mean the value that you could receive for your securities if you chose to sell them in the open market before the call payment date or the stated maturity date. A number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, will influence the market value of your securities, including:

•the value of the underlying index;

•the volatility – i.e., the frequency and magnitude of changes – in the index closing value of the underlying index;

•the dividend rates of the underlying index stocks;

PS-13

October 2024

GS Finance Corp.

Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the S&P 500® Index due October 16, 2028

Principal at Risk Securities

•economic, financial, regulatory, political, military, public health and other events that affect stock markets generally and the underlying index stocks, and which may affect the index closing value of the underlying index;

•interest rates and yield rates in the market;

•the time remaining until your securities mature; and

•our creditworthiness and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., whether actual or perceived, including actual or anticipated upgrades or downgrades in our credit ratings or the credit ratings of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or changes in other credit measures.

Without limiting the foregoing, the market value of your securities may be negatively impacted by increasing interest rates. Such adverse impact of increasing interest rates could be significantly enhanced in securities with longer-dated maturities, the market values of which are generally more sensitive to increasing interest rates.

These factors, and many other factors, will influence the price you will receive if you sell your securities before the call payment date or maturity, including the price you may receive for your securities in any market making transaction. If you sell your securities before the call payment date or maturity, you may receive less than the principal amount of your securities or the amount you may receive on the call payment date or at maturity.

You cannot predict the future performance of the underlying index based on its historical performance. The actual performance of the underlying index over the life of the offered securities or the payment at maturity may bear little or no relation to the historical index closing values of the underlying index or to the hypothetical examples shown elsewhere in this pricing supplement.

Your Securities May Not Have an Active Trading Market

Your securities will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or included in any interdealer market quotation system, and there may be little or no secondary market for your securities. Even if a secondary market for your securities develops, it may not provide significant liquidity and we expect that transaction costs in any secondary market would be high. As a result, the difference between bid and asked prices for your securities in any secondary market could be substantial.

If the Value of the Underlying Index Changes, the Market Value of Your Securities May Not Change in the Same Manner

The price of your securities may move quite differently than the performance of the underlying index. Changes in the value of the underlying index may not result in a comparable change in the market value of your securities. Even if the value of the underlying index remain above the downside threshold level during some portion of the life of the securities, the market value of your securities may not reflect directly any movement in the level of the underlying index. We discuss some of the reasons for this disparity under “— The Market Value of Your Securities May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors” above.

Investing in the Securities is Not Equivalent to Investing in the Underlying Index; You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Underlying Index Stock

Investing in your securities is not equivalent to investing in the underlying index and will not make you a holder of any of the underlying index stocks. Neither you nor any other holder or owner of your securities will have any rights with respect to the underlying index stocks, including any voting rights, any right to receive dividends or other distributions, any rights to make a claim against the underlying index stocks or any other rights of a holder of the underlying index stocks. Your securities will be paid in cash and you will have no right to receive delivery of any underlying index stocks.

We May Sell an Additional Aggregate Stated Principal Amount of the Securities at a Different Issue Price

At our sole option, we may decide to sell an additional aggregate stated principal amount of the securities subsequent to the date of this pricing supplement. The issue price of the securities in the subsequent sale may differ substantially (higher or lower) from the original issue price you paid as provided on the cover of this pricing supplement.

If You Purchase Your Securities at a Premium to Stated Principal Amount, the Return on Your Investment Will Be Lower Than the Return on Securities Purchased at Stated Principal Amount and the Impact of Certain Key Terms of the Securities Will be Negatively Affected

The payment on the call payment date or at maturity will not be adjusted based on the issue price you pay for the securities. If you purchase securities at a price that differs from the stated principal amount of the securities, then the return on your investment in such securities held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date will differ from, and may be substantially less than, the return on securities purchased at stated principal amount. If you purchase your securities at a premium to stated principal amount and hold them to the call payment date or the stated maturity date the return on your investment in the securities will be lower than it would have been had you purchased the securities at stated principal amount or a discount to stated principal amount.

Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest

Other Investors May Not Have the Same Interests as You

Other investors in the securities are not required to take into account the interests of any other investor in exercising remedies or voting or other rights in their capacity as holders of the securities. The interests of other investors may, in some circumstances, be adverse to your interests. Further, other investors in the market may take short positions (directly or indirectly through derivative transactions) on assets that are the same or similar to your securities, the underlying stocks or other similar securities, which may adversely impact the market for or value of your securities.

Hedging Activities by Goldman Sachs or Our Distributors May Negatively Impact Investors in the Securities and Cause Our Interests and Those of Our Clients and Counterparties to be Contrary to Those of Investors in the Securities

Goldman Sachs has hedged or expects to hedge our obligations under the securities by purchasing listed or over-the-counter options, futures and/or other instruments linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks. Goldman Sachs also expects to adjust the hedge by, among other things, purchasing or selling any of the foregoing, and perhaps other instruments linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks, at any time and from time to time, and to unwind the hedge by selling any of the foregoing on or before the valuation date for your securities. Alternatively, Goldman Sachs may hedge all or part of our obligations under the securities with unaffiliated distributors of the securities which we expect will undertake similar market activity. Goldman Sachs may also enter into, adjust and unwind hedging transactions relating to other index-linked securities whose returns are linked to changes in the value of the underlying index or the underlying index stocks, as applicable.

In addition to entering into such transactions itself, or distributors entering into such transactions, Goldman Sachs may structure such transactions for its clients or counterparties, or otherwise advise or assist clients or counterparties in entering into such transactions. These activities may be undertaken to achieve a variety of objectives, including: permitting other purchasers of the securities or other securities to hedge their investment in whole or in part; facilitating transactions for other clients or counterparties that may have business objectives or investment strategies that are inconsistent with or contrary to those of investors in the securities; hedging the exposure of Goldman Sachs to the securities including any interest in the securities that it reacquires or retains as part of the offering process, through its market-making activities or otherwise; enabling Goldman Sachs to comply with its internal risk limits or otherwise manage firmwide, business unit or product risk; and/or enabling Goldman Sachs to take directional views

PS-15

Principal at Risk Securities

as to relevant markets on behalf of itself or its clients or counterparties that are inconsistent with or contrary to the views and objectives of the investors in the securities.

Any of these hedging or other activities may adversely affect the value of the underlying index — directly or indirectly by affecting the value of the underlying index stocks — and therefore the market value of your securities and the amount we will pay on your securities, if any, on the call payment date or at maturity. In addition, you should expect that these transactions will cause Goldman Sachs or its clients, counterparties or distributors to have economic interests and incentives that do not align with, and that may be directly contrary to, those of an investor in the securities. Neither Goldman Sachs nor any distributor will have any obligation to take, refrain from taking or cease taking any action with respect to these transactions based on the potential effect on an investor in the securities, and may receive substantial returns on hedging or other activities while the value of your securities declines. In addition, if the distributor from which you purchase securities is to conduct hedging activities in connection with the securities, that distributor may otherwise profit in connection with such hedging activities and such profit, if any, will be in addition to the compensation that the distributor receives for the sale of the securities to you. You should be aware that the potential to earn fees in connection with hedging activities may create a further incentive for the distributor to sell the securities to you in addition to the compensation they would receive for the sale of the securities.

Goldman Sachs’ Trading and Investment Activities for its Own Account or for its Clients, Could Negatively Impact Investors in the Securities

Goldman Sachs is a global investment banking, securities and investment management firm that provides a wide range of financial services to a substantial and diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and individuals. As such, it acts as an investor, investment banker, research provider, investment manager, investment advisor, market maker, trader, prime broker and lender. In those and other capacities, Goldman Sachs purchases, sells or holds a broad array of investments, actively trades securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps, indexes, baskets and other financial instruments and products for its own account or for the accounts of its customers, and will have other direct or indirect interests, in the global fixed income, currency, commodity, equity, bank loan and other markets. Any of Goldman Sachs’ financial market activities may, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on the market for your securities, and you should expect that the interests of Goldman Sachs or its clients or counterparties will at times be adverse to those of investors in the securities.

Goldman Sachs regularly offers a wide array of securities, financial instruments and other products into the marketplace, including existing or new products that are similar to your securities, or similar or linked to the underlying index or underlying index stocks. Investors in the securities should expect that Goldman Sachs will offer securities, financial instruments, and other products that will compete with the securities for liquidity, research coverage or otherwise.

Additional Risks Related to the Underlying Index

The Policies of the Underlying Index Publisher and Changes That Affect the Underlying Index or the Underlying Index Stocks Comprising the Underlying Index Could Affect the Payment at Maturity and the Market Value of the Securities

The policies of the underlying index publisher concerning the calculation of the value of the underlying index, additions, deletions or substitutions of underlying index stocks comprising the underlying index and the manner in which changes affecting the underlying index stocks or their issuers, such as stock dividends, reorganizations or mergers, are reflected in the value of the underlying index, could affect the value of the underlying index and, therefore, the payment on the call payment date or at maturity and the market value of your securities before the call payment date or the stated maturity date. The payment on the call payment date or at maturity and the market value of your securities could also be affected if the underlying index publisher changes these policies, for example, by changing the manner in which it calculates the underlying index value or if the underlying index publisher discontinues or suspends calculation or publication of the value of the underlying index, in which case it may become difficult to

October 2024

determine the market value of your securities. If events such as these occur, the calculation agent — which initially will be GS&Co., our affiliate — may determine the index closing value of the underlying index on any such date — and thus the payment on the call payment date or at maturity — in a manner it considers appropriate, in its sole discretion. We describe the discretion that the calculation agent will have in determining the closing index value on any index business day and the payment on the call payment date or at maturity more fully under “Supplemental Terms of the Notes — Discontinuance or Modification of an Underlying” and “— Role of Calculation Agent” on page S-28 of the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999.

Risks Related to Tax

The Tax Consequences of an Investment in Your Securities Are Uncertain

The tax consequences of an investment in your securities are uncertain, both as to the timing and character of any inclusion in income in respect of your securities.

The Internal Revenue Service announced on December 7, 2007 that it is considering issuing guidance regarding the proper U.S. federal income tax treatment of an instrument such as your securities and any such guidance could adversely affect the tax treatment and the value of your securities. Among other things, the Internal Revenue Service may decide to require the holders to accrue ordinary income on a current basis and recognize ordinary income on payment at maturity, and could subject non-U.S. investors to withholding tax. Furthermore, in 2007, legislation was introduced in Congress that, if enacted, would have required holders that acquired instruments such as your securities after the bill was enacted to accrue interest income over the term of such instruments even though there will be no interest payments over the term of such instruments. It is not possible to predict whether a similar or identical bill will be enacted in the future, or whether any such bill would affect the tax treatment of your securities. We describe these developments in more detail under “Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences– United States Holders – Possible Change in Law” below. You should consult your tax advisor about this matter. Except to the extent otherwise provided by law, GS Finance Corp. intends to continue treating your securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described under “Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” below unless and until such time as Congress, the Treasury Department or the Internal Revenue Service determine that some other treatment is more appropriate. Please also consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax and any other applicable tax consequences to you of owning your securities in your particular circumstances.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding May Apply to Payments on Your Securities, Including as a Result of the Failure of the Bank or Broker Through Which You Hold the Securities to Provide Information to Tax Authorities

Please see the discussion under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding” in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the applicability of FATCA to payments made on your securities.

Historical Index Closing Values

The index closing values have fluctuated in the past and may, in the future, experience significant fluctuations. In particular, the underlying index has recently experienced extreme and unusual volatility. Any historical upward or downward trend in the index closing value during any period shown below is not an indication that the underlying index is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time during the life of your securities.

You should not take the historical index closing values as an indication of the future performance of the underlying index, including because of the recent volatility described above. We cannot give you any assurance that the future performance of the underlying index or the underlying index stocks will result in your receiving any payments or receiving an amount greater than the outstanding principal amount of your securities on the stated maturity date, or that you will not suffer a loss of a significant portion of all of your investment.

Neither we nor any of our affiliates make any representation to you as to the performance of the underlying index. Before investing in the offered securities, you should consult publicly available information to determine the values of the underlying index between the date of this pricing supplement and the date of your purchase of the offered securities and, given the recent volatility described above, you should pay particular attention to the recent levels of the underlying index. The actual performance of the underlying index over the life of the offered securities, as well as the payment at maturity, if any, may bear little relation to the historical index closing values shown below.

The table below shows the high, low and period end index closing values of the underlying index for each of the four calendar quarters in 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 (through October 3, 2024). We obtained the index closing values listed in the tables below from Bloomberg Financial Services, without independent verification.

Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

The following section supplements the discussion of U.S. federal income taxation in the accompanying prospectus.

The following section is the opinion of Sidley Austin llp, counsel to GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. In addition, it is the opinion of Sidley Austin llp that the characterization of each security for U.S. federal income tax purposes that will be required under the terms of each security, as discussed below, is a reasonable interpretation of current law.

This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules, such as:

•a dealer in securities or currencies;

•a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;

•a bank;

•a life insurance company;

•a regulated investment company;

•an accrual method taxpayer subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of its use of financial statements;

•a tax exempt organization;

•a partnership;

•a person that owns a security as a hedge or that is hedged against interest rate risks;

•a person that owns a security as part of a straddle or conversion transaction for tax purposes; or

•a United States holder (as defined below) whose functional currency for tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar.

Although this section is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations under the Internal Revenue Code, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in effect, no statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how your securities should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and as a result, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in your securities are uncertain. Moreover, these laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

You should consult your tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax and other tax consequences of your investment in the securities, including the application of state, local or other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.

United States Holders

This section applies to you only if you are a United States holder that holds your securities as a capital asset for tax purposes. You are a United States holder if you are a beneficial owner of a security and you are:

•a citizen or resident of the United States;

•a domestic corporation;

•an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

•a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

Tax Treatment. You will be obligated pursuant to the terms of your securities — in the absence of a change in law, an administrative determination or a judicial ruling to the contrary — to characterize your securities for all tax purposes as pre-paid derivative contracts in respect of the underlying index. Except as otherwise stated below, the discussion herein assumes that your securities will be so treated.

Upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your securities, you should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash you receive at such time and your tax basis in your securities. Your tax basis in the securities will generally be equal to the amount that you paid for the securities. If you hold your securities for more than one year, the gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss. If you hold your securities for one year or less, the gain or loss generally will be short-term capital gain or loss. Short-term capital gains are generally subject to tax at the marginal tax rates applicable to ordinary income.

No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how your securities should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the securities are uncertain and alternative characterizations are possible. Accordingly, we urge you to consult your tax advisor in determining the tax consequences of an investment in your securities in your particular circumstances, including the application of state, local or other tax laws and the possible effects of changes in federal or other tax laws.

Alternative Treatments. There is no judicial or administrative authority discussing how your securities should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, the Internal Revenue Service might assert that a treatment other than that described above is more appropriate. For example, the Internal Revenue Service could treat your securities as a single debt instrument subject to special rules governing contingent payment debt instruments. Under those rules, the amount of interest you are required to take into account for each accrual period would be determined by constructing a projected payment schedule for the securities and applying rules similar to those for accruing original issue discount on a hypothetical noncontingent debt instrument with that projected payment schedule. This method is applied by first determining the comparable yield – i.e., the yield at which we would issue a noncontingent fixed rate debt instrument with terms and conditions similar to your securities – and then determining a payment schedule as of the issue date that would produce the comparable yield. These rules may have the effect of requiring you to include interest in income in respect of your securities prior to your receipt of cash attributable to that income.

If the rules governing contingent payment debt instruments apply, any gain you recognize upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your securities would be treated as ordinary interest income. Any loss you recognize at that time would be ordinary loss to the extent of interest you included as income in the current or previous taxable years in respect of your securities, and, thereafter, capital loss.

If the rules governing contingent payment debt instruments apply, special rules would apply to a person who purchases a security at a price other than the adjusted issue price as determined for tax purposes.

It is also possible that your securities could be treated in the manner described above, except that any gain or loss that you recognize at maturity or upon redemption would be treated as ordinary gain or loss. You should consult your tax advisor as to the tax consequences of such characterization and any possible alternative characterizations of your securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could seek to characterize your securities in a manner that results in tax consequences to you that are different from those described above. You should consult your tax advisor as to the tax consequences of any possible alternative characterizations of your securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Possible Change in Law

On December 7, 2007, the Internal Revenue Service released a notice stating that the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are actively considering issuing guidance regarding the proper U.S.

federal income tax treatment of an instrument such as the offered securities, including whether holders should be required to accrue ordinary income on a current basis and whether gain or loss should be ordinary or capital. It is not possible to determine what guidance they will ultimately issue, if any. It is possible, however, that under such guidance, holders of the securities will ultimately be required to accrue income currently and this could be applied on a retroactive basis. The Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department are also considering other relevant issues, including whether foreign holders of such instruments should be subject to withholding tax on any deemed income accruals, and whether the special “constructive ownership rules” of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code might be applied to such instruments. Except to the extent otherwise provided by law, GS Finance Corp. intends to continue treating each security for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described above under “Tax Treatment” unless and until such time as Congress, the Treasury Department or the Internal Revenue Service determine that some other treatment is more appropriate.

Furthermore, in 2007, legislation was introduced in Congress that, if enacted, would have required holders that acquired instruments such as your securities after the bill was enacted to accrue interest income over the term of such instruments even though there will be no interest payments over the term of such instruments. It is not possible to predict whether a similar or identical bill will be enacted in the future, or whether any such bill would affect the tax treatment of your securities.

It is impossible to predict what any such legislation or administrative or regulatory guidance might provide, and whether the effective date of any legislation or guidance will affect a security issued before the date that such legislation or guidance is issued. You are urged to consult your tax advisor as to the possibility that any legislative or administrative action may adversely affect the tax treatment of your securities.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

You will be subject to generally applicable information reporting and backup withholding requirements as discussed in the accompanying prospectus under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Backup Withholding and Information Reporting — United States Holders” with respect to payments on your securities and, notwithstanding that we do not intend to treat the securities as debt for tax purposes, we intend to backup withhold on such payments with respect to your securities unless you comply with the requirements necessary to avoid backup withholding on debt instruments (in which case you will not be subject to such backup withholding) as set forth under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — United States Holders” in the accompanying prospectus. Please see the discussion under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Backup Withholding and Information Reporting—United States Holders” in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the applicability of the backup withholding and information reporting rules to payments made on your securities.

Non-United States Holders

This section applies to you only if you are a non-United States holder. You are a non-United States holder if you are the beneficial owner of a security and are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 a nonresident alien individual;

 a foreign corporation; or

 an estate or trust that in either case is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis on income or gain from a security.

You will be subject to generally applicable information reporting and backup withholding requirements as discussed in the accompanying prospectus under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Backup Withholding and Information Reporting — Non-United States Holders” with respect to payments on your securities and, notwithstanding that we do not intend to treat each security as debt for tax purposes, we intend to backup withhold on such payments with respect to your securities unless you comply with the requirements necessary to avoid backup withholding on debt instruments (in which case you will not be subject to such backup withholding) as set forth under “United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Non-United States Holders” in the accompanying prospectus.

Furthermore, on December 7, 2007, the Internal Revenue Service released Notice 2008-2 soliciting comments from the public on various issues, including whether instruments such as your securities should be subject to withholding. It is therefore possible that rules will be issued in the future, possibly with retroactive effect, that would cause payments on your securities to be subject to withholding, even if you comply with certification requirements as to your foreign status.

As discussed above, alternative characterizations of each security for U.S. federal income tax purposes are possible. Should an alternative characterization of each security by reason of a change or clarification of the law, by regulation or otherwise, cause payments with respect to the securities to become subject to withholding tax, we will withhold tax at the applicable statutory rate and we will not make payments of any additional amounts. Prospective non-United States holders of a security should consult their tax advisors in this regard.

In addition, the Treasury Department has issued regulations under which amounts paid or deemed paid on certain financial instruments (“871(m) financial instruments”) that are treated as attributable to U.S.-source dividends could be treated, in whole or in part depending on the circumstances, as a “dividend equivalent” payment that is subject to tax at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate under an applicable treaty), which in the case of any amounts you receive upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your securities, could be collected via withholding. If these regulations were to apply to your securities, we may be required to withhold such taxes if any U.S.-source dividends are paid on the stocks included in the underlying index during the term of the securities. We could also require you to make certifications (e.g., an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8) prior to thematurity of the securities in order to avoid or minimize withholding obligations, and we could withhold accordingly (subject to your potential right to claim a refund from the Internal Revenue Service) if such certifications were not received or were not satisfactory. If withholding was required, we would not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld. These regulations generally will apply to 871(m) financial instruments (or a combination of financial instruments treated as having been entered into in connection with each other) issued (or significantly modified and treated as retired and reissued) on or after January 1, 2027, but will also apply to certain 871(m) financial instruments (or a combination of financial instruments treated as having been entered into in connection with each other) that have a delta (as defined in the applicable Treasury regulations) of one and are issued (or significantly modified and treated as retired and reissued) on or after January 1, 2017. In addition, these regulations will not apply to financial instruments that reference a “qualified index” (as defined in the regulations). We have determined that, as of the issue date of your securities, your securities will not be subject to withholding under these rules. In certain limited circumstances, however, you should be aware that it is possible for non-United States holders to be liable for tax under these rules with respect to a combination of transactions treated as having been entered into in connection with each other even when no withholding is required. You should consult your tax advisor concerning these regulations, subsequent official guidance and regarding any other possible alternative characterizations of your securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding

Pursuant to Treasury regulations, Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) withholding (as described in “United States Taxation—Taxation of Debt Securities—Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) Withholding” in the accompanying prospectus) will generally apply to obligations that are issued on or after July 1, 2014; therefore, the securities will generally be subject to the FATCA withholding rules.
