Index-Linked Notes due

OVERVIEW

The notes (CUSIP: 40058AW42) do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your notes on the stated maturity date is based on the lesser performing of the Russell 2000® Index and the S&P 500® Index as measured from the trade date to and including the determination date.

If the final underlier level of each underlier on the determination date is greater than its initial underlier level (set on the trade date and will be an intra-day level or the closing level of such underlier on the trade date), the return on your notes will be positive and will equal the underlier return of the lesser performing underlier, subject to the maximum settlement amount.

If the final underlier level of any underlier is equal to or less than its initial underlier level, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes you will receive the greater of (i) the minimum settlement amount of $950 and (ii) $1,000 plus the product of $1,000 times the lesser performing underlier return. If the final level of any underlier is less than its initial underlier level, you will receive less than the face amount of your notes.

You should read the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement dated June 20, 2024, which we refer to herein as the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, to better understand the terms and risks of your investment, including the credit risk of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
