Offering Circular dated 19 January 2015 Gallant Venture Ltd. (incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Republic of Singapore) (Company registration number: 200303179Z) U.S.$500,000,000 Euro Medium Term Note Programme On 15 November 2013, Gallant Venture Ltd. established a Euro Medium Term Note Programme with a programme limit of U.S.$500,000,000 and prepared an offering circular dated 15 November 2013. This Offering Circular supersedes all previous offering circulars and any supplement thereto. Any Notes (as defined below) issued under the Programme on or after the date of this Offering Circular are issued subject to the provisions described herein. The provisions described herein do not affect any notes issued under the Programme prior to the date of this Offering Circular. Under the Euro Medium Term Note Programme described in this Offering Circular (the “Programme”), Gallant Venture Ltd. (“Gallant”, the “Issuer” or the “Company”), subject to compliance with all relevant laws, regulations and directives, may from time to time issue medium term notes (the “Notes”). The aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding will not at any time exceed U.S.$500,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies), subject to increases as described herein. The Notes may be issued by the Issuer on a continuing basis to one or more of the Dealers appointed under the Programme from time to time (each a “Dealer” and together the “Dealers”), which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis. References in this Offering Circular to the “relevant Dealer” shall, in the case of an issue of Notes being (or intended to be) subscribed for by more than one Dealer, be to all Dealers agreeing to subscribe for such Notes. Approval in-principle has been obtained from the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the “SGX-ST”) for the establishment of the Programme and application will be made to the SGX-ST for permission to deal in and quotation for any Notes which are agreed at the time of issue thereof to be so listed and quoted on the SGX-ST. Such permission will be granted when such Notes have been admitted to the Official List of the SGX-ST. Unlisted Notes may also be issued pursuant to the Programme and Notes may also be listed on stock exchanges other than SGX-ST. The relevant Pricing Supplement (as defined herein) in respect of any issue of Notes will specify whether or not such Notes will be listed on the SGX-ST or on any other stock exchange. There is no assurance that an application to the Official List of the SGX- ST for the listing of the Notes will be approved. Approval in-principle from, admission to the Official List of, and listing and quotation of any Notes on, the SGX-ST are not to be taken as an indication of the merits of the Issuer, its subsidiaries (together with the Issuer, the “Group”or the “Gallant Group”), the Programme or such Notes. The SGX-ST assumes no responsibility for the correctness of any of the statements made, opinions expressed or reports contained in this Offering Circular. The Notes may be issued in bearer form (“Bearer Notes”) or in registered form (“Registered Notes”). The Notes of each Series to be issued in bearer form will be sold in an “offshore transaction” within the meaning of Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and will initially be represented on issue by a temporary global note in bearer form (each a “temporary Global Note”) or a permanent global note in bearer form (each a “permanent Global Note” and, together with the temporary Global Notes, the “Global Notes”). Interests in temporary Global Notes generally will be exchangeable for interests, in whole or in part, in permanent Global Notes, or if so stated in the relevant Pricing Supplement, definitive Notes (“Definitive Notes”), after the date falling 40 days after the later of the commencement of the offering and the relevant issue date of such Tranche of Notes, upon certification as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership. Interests in permanent Global Notes will be exchangeable for Definitive Notes in whole but not in part as described under “Summary of Provisions Relating to the Notes while in Global Form”. Notes in registered form will be represented by registered certificates (each a “Certificate”), one Certificate being issued in respect of each Noteholder’s entire holding of Registered Notes of one Series. The Notes of each Series to be issued in registered form and which are sold in an “offshore transaction” within the meaning of Regulation S will initially be represented by a permanent global certificate (each a “Global Certificate”) without interest coupons. The Global Notes and Global Certificates may be deposited on the relevant issue date (a) in the case of a Series intended to be cleared through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
