U.K. MiFIR PRODUCT GOVERNANCE / PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS AND ECPs ONLY TARGET MARKET - 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 only eligible counterparties, as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook ("COBS"), and professional clients, as defined in Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("U.K. MiFIR"); and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. 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 the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "U.K. MiFIR Product Governance Rules") 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.

ADB does not fall under the scope of application of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II") or U.K. MiFIR. Consequently, ADB does not qualify as an "investment firm", "manufacturer" or "distributor" for the purposes of either MiFID II or U.K. MiFIR.

Use of Proceeds

The net proceeds of the issue of the Notes will be included in the ordinary capital resources of ADB which will then be allocated to a special sub-portfolio therein and tracked against the disbursements to Eligible Green Projects (as defined below). As long as the Notes are outstanding, the balance of the sub-portfolio will be reduced, at the end of each quarter, by amounts matching the disbursements made during the quarter with respect to the Eligible Green Projects. Pending such disbursement, the sub-portfolio will be invested in accordance with ADB's liquidity policy.

Eligible green projects under ADB's Green and Blue Bond framework ("Eligible Green Projects") include projects funded by ADB, in whole or in part, that (i) target a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere or removal of greenhouse gas emissions from the atmosphere ("Climate Change Mitigation Projects") and/or (ii) target the reduction of the vulnerability of human or natural systems to the consequences of climate change and enhance resilience and adaptive capacity ("Climate Change Adaptation Projects").

Examples of Climate Change Mitigation Projects would typically include, without limitation, those that fall under the following sectors:

• Renewable energy - projects that use energy resources that can be naturally replenished (solar, wind, geothermal, and small hydro energy generation);

• Energy efficiency - projects that deliver more energy services with the same energy input (excluding fossil fuel projects); and

• Sustainable transport - projects that provide accessible, safe, environmentally friendly, and affordable transportation.

Examples of Climate Change Adaptation Projects would typically include, without limitation, those that fall under the following sectors:

• Energy infrastructure resilience - projects that help improve energy security (excluding fossil fuel projects);

• Water and other urban infrastructure and services - projects that improve water security and livelihoods of vulnerable urban populations, such as, providing urban flood protection;

• Sustainable transport - projects that reduce the vulnerability of transport infrastructure; and

• Agriculture - projects that promote improved water and soil management practices, and strengthen agriculture infrastructure.

The above examples of Eligible Green Projects are for illustrative purposes only and no assurance can be provided that disbursements for projects with these specific characteristics will be made by ADB during the term of the Notes.
