The information herein supplements the preliminary prospectus supplement and supersedes the
information in the preliminary prospectus supplement to the extent inconsistent with the information in the preliminary prospectus supplement.
The issuer expects to deliver Notes against payment for the Notes on the Settlement Date, which will be
the third business day following the date of the pricing of the Notes. 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, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the second business day before the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially
will settle in T+3, to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
The issuer has filed a registration statement
(including a preliminary prospectus supplement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the preliminary prospectus supplement included
in that registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Website at www.sec.gov.
Alternatively, the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC at 1-866-471-2526 or Wells Fargo Securities, LLC at 1-800-645-3751.
Any disclaimer or other notice that may appear below is not applicable to this communication and should be disregarded. Such disclaimer or notice was
