GS-J Goldman Sachs Group Inc

	Subject to Completion. Dated June 26, 2024. GS Finance Corp. $ Autocallable Buffered Basket-Linked Notes due guaranteed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The notes do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your notes is based on the performance of an equally weighted basket comprised of a common share of Cameco Corporation, the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation, an ordinary share of Eaton Corporation plc, the common stock of Freeport-McMoRan Inc., the common stock of Hubbell Incorporated, the common stock of NextEra Energy, Inc., the common stock of Quanta Services, Inc., the common stock of Super Micro Computer, Inc., the Class A common stock of Vertiv Holdings Co and the Global X Uranium ETF (the basket underliers). Each basket underlier has an initial weighting of 10% and an initial weighted value of 10. The notes will mature on the stated maturity date (expected to be July 2, 2026), unless they are automatically called on the call observation date (expected to be July 11, 2025).

The return on your notes is linked, in part, to the performance of the Global X Uranium ETF (ETF), and not to that of the Solactive Global Uranium & Nuclear Components Total Return Index on which the ETF is based.

The initial basket level is 100 and the closing level of the basket on the call observation date and on the determination date (expected to be June 29, 2026), as applicable, will equal the sum of the products, as calculated for each basket underlier, of: (i) its closing level on the call observation date or determination date, as applicable, divided by (ii) its initial level (set on the trade date, expected to be June 28, 2024, and will be an intra-day level or the closing level of such basket underlier on the trade date) multiplied by (iii) its initial weighted value.

Your notes will be automatically called on the call observation date if the closing level of the basket on such date is greater than or equal to the initial basket level, resulting in a payment on the call payment date (expected to be July 16, 2025) for each $1,000 face amount of your notes equal to $1,145.

If your notes are not automatically called on the call observation date, we will calculate the basket return, which is the percentage increase or decrease in the closing level of the basket on the determination date (the final basket level) from the initial basket level. At maturity, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes, you will receive an amount in cash equal to:

Declines in one basket underlier may offset increases in the other basket underliers.

You should read the disclosure herein to better understand the terms and risks of your investment, including the credit risk of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. See page PS-19.

The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date is expected to be between $900 and $930 per $1,000 face amount. For a discussion of the estimated value and the price at which Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC would initially buy or sell your notes, if it makes a market in the notes, see the following page.

Original issue date:	expected to be July 3, 2024	Original issue price:	100% of the face amount1
Underwriting discount:	% of the face amount1,2	Net proceeds to the issuer:	% of the face amount

1 Accounts of certain national banks, acting as purchase agents for such accounts, have agreed with the purchase agents to pay a purchase price of % of the face amount, and as a result of such agreements, the agents with respect to sales to be made to such accounts will not receive any portion of the underwriting discount.

2 This includes a selling concession of up to 1.5%.

---

Trade date: expected to be June 28, 2024

Original issue date (set on the trade date): expected to be July 3, 2024

Determination date (set on the trade date): expected to be June 29, 2026, unless the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event with respect to a basket underlier occurs or is continuing on such day or such day is not a trading day with respect to a basket underlier. In that event, the determination date will be the first following trading day on which the calculation agent determines that, on or subsequent to such originally scheduled determination date, each basket underlier has had at least one trading day on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing and the closing level of each of the basket underliers will be determined on or prior to the postponed determination date as set forth under “— Consequences of a market disruption event or a non-trading day” below. (In such case, the determination date may differ from the dates on which the levels of one or more basket underliers are determined for the purpose of the calculations to be performed on the determination date.) In no event, however, will the determination date be postponed to a date later than the originally scheduled stated maturity date or, if the originally scheduled stated maturity date is not a business day, later than the first business day after the originally scheduled stated maturity date. On such last possible determination date, if a market disruption event occurs or is continuing with respect to a basket underlier that has not yet had such a trading day on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing or if such last possible day is not a trading day with respect to such basket underlier, that day will nevertheless be the determination date.

Stated maturity date (set on the trade date): expected to be July 2, 2026, unless that day is not a business day, in which case the stated maturity date will be postponed to the next following business day. The stated maturity date will also be postponed if the determination date is postponed as described under “— Determination date” above. In such a case, the stated maturity date will be postponed by the same number of business day(s) from but excluding the originally scheduled determination date to and including the actual determination date.

Call observation date (set on the trade date): expected to be July 11, 2025, unless the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event with respect to a basket underlier occurs or is continuing on such day or such day is not a trading day with respect to a basket underlier. In that event, the call observation date will be the first following trading day on which the calculation agent determines that, on or subsequent to the originally scheduled call observation date, each basket underlier has had at least one trading day on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing and the closing level of each of the basket underliers will be determined on or prior to the postponed call observation date as set forth under “— Consequences of a market disruption event or a non-trading day” below. (In such case, the call observation date may differ from the dates on which the levels of one or more basket underliers are determined for the purpose of the calculations to be performed on the call observation date.) In no event, however, will the call observation date be postponed to a date later than the originally scheduled call payment date or, if the originally scheduled call payment date is not a business day, later than the first business day after the originally scheduled call payment date. On such last possible call observation date, if a market disruption event occurs or is continuing with respect to a basket underlier that has not yet had such a trading day on which no market disruption event has occurred or is continuing or if such last possible day is not a trading day with respect to such basket underlier, that day will nevertheless be the call observation date.

Call payment date (set on the trade date): expected to be July 16, 2025, or, if such day is not a business day, the next succeeding business day. If the call observation date is postponed as described under “— Call observation date” above, the call payment date will be postponed by the same number of business day(s) from but excluding the originally scheduled call observation date to and including the actual call observation date.

Closing level: with respect to a basket underlier, on any trading day, the closing sale price or last reported sale price, regular way, for such basket underlier, on a per-share or other unit basis:

---

If such basket underlier is not listed or traded as described above, then the closing level for such basket underlier on any day will be the average, as determined by the calculation agent, of the bid prices for such basket underlier obtained from as many dealers in such basket underlier selected by the calculation agent as will make those bid prices available to the calculation agent. The number of dealers need not exceed three and may include the calculation agent or any of its or the company’s affiliates.

The closing level of a basket underlier is subject to adjustment as described under “— Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” and “— Anti-dilution adjustments for the basket fund”, as applicable, below.

Trading day: (i) with respect to a basket index stock, a day on which the principal securities market for such basket index stock is open for trading, and (ii) with respect to the basket fund, a day on which (a) the exchange on which such basket fund has its primary listing is open for trading and (b) the price of one share of such basket fund is quoted by the exchange on which such basket fund has its primary listing

Successor basket underlier: with respect to the basket fund, any substitute basket underlier approved by the calculation agent as a successor as provided under “— Discontinuance or modification of an underlier that is a basket fund” below

Basket fund investment advisor: with respect to the basket fund, at any time, the person or entity, including any successor investment advisor or trustee, as applicable, that serves as an investment advisor or trustee to such basket underlier as then in effect

Basket underlier stocks: with respect to the basket fund, at any time, the stocks that comprise such basket underlier as then in effect, after giving effect to any additions, deletions or substitutions

Basket index stock issuer: with respect to a basket index stock, the issuer of such basket underlier as then in effect

Market disruption event: (i) With respect to a basket underlier on any given trading day, any of the following will be a market disruption event:

and, in the case of any of these events, the calculation agent determines in its sole discretion that such event could materially interfere with the ability of the company or any of its affiliates or a similarly situated person to unwind all or a material portion of a hedge that could be effected with respect to this note.

The following events will not be market disruption events:

For this purpose, an “absence of trading” in the primary securities market on which shares of such basket underlier are traded, or on which option or futures contracts, if available, relating to such basket underlier are traded, will not include any time when that market is itself closed for trading under ordinary circumstances. In contrast, a suspension or limitation of trading in shares of such basket underlier or in option or futures contracts, if

---

available, relating to such basket underlier in the primary market for such basket underlier or those contracts, by reason of:

will constitute a suspension or material limitation of trading in shares of such basket underlier or those contracts in that market.

(ii) A market disruption event with respect to one basket underlier will not, by itself, constitute a market disruption event for any unaffected basket underlier.

Consequences of a market disruption event or a non-trading day: If a market disruption event with respect to any basket underlier occurs or is continuing on a day that would otherwise be the call observation date or the determination date, or such day is not a trading day, then the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, will be postponed as described under “— Call observation date” or “— Determination date” above. As a result of any of the foregoing, the call payment date or stated maturity date for your notes may also be postponed, as described under “— Call payment date” or “ — Stated maturity date” above. If the call observation date or the determination date is postponed due to a market disruption event or non-trading day with respect to one or more of the basket underliers, the closing level of the basket for any postponed call observation date or the postponed determination date, as applicable, will be calculated based on (i) the closing level of each of the basket underliers that is not affected by the market disruption event or non-trading day, if any, on originally scheduled call observation date or the originally scheduled determination date, (ii) the closing level of each of the basket underliers that is affected by the market disruption event or non-trading day on the first trading day following the originally scheduled call observation date or originally scheduled determination date on which no market disruption event exists for that basket underlier, and (iii) the calculation agent’s assessment, in its sole discretion, of the closing level of each basket underlier on the last possible postponed call observation date or determination date, with respect to each basket underlier as to which a market disruption event or non-trading day continues through the last possible postponed call observation date or determination date. As a result, this could result in the closing level of differing basket underliers being determined on different calendar dates. For the avoidance of doubt, once the closing level for one or more basket underliers is determined for the call observation date or determination date, the occurrence of a later market disruption event or non-trading day will not alter such calculation.

Discontinuance or modification of a basket underlier that is a basket fund: If, with respect to the basket fund, such basket fund is delisted from the exchange on which the basket fund has its primary listing and the basket fund investment advisor or anyone else publishes a substitute basket underlier that the calculation agent determines is comparable to the basket fund and approves as a successor basket underlier, or if the calculation agent designates a substitute basket underlier, then the calculation agent will determine the amount payable on the call payment date or the stated maturity date by reference to such successor basket underlier.

If the calculation agent determines that the basket fund is delisted or withdrawn from the exchange on which the basket fund has its primary listing and there is no successor basket underlier, the calculation agent will determine the amount payable on the call payment date or on the stated maturity date, as applicable, by a computation methodology that the calculation agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate the basket fund.

If the calculation agent determines that the basket fund, the basket underlier stocks comprising such basket fund or the method of calculating such basket fund is changed at any time in any respect — including any split or reverse split of the basket fund, a material change in the investment objective of the basket fund and any addition, deletion or substitution and any reweighting or rebalancing of the basket underlier stocks and whether the change is made by the basket fund investment advisor under its existing policies or following a modification of those policies, is due to the publication of a successor basket underlier, is due to events affecting one or more of the basket underlier stocks or their issuers or is due to any other reason — then the calculation agent will be permitted (but not required) to make such adjustments in the basket fund or the method of its calculation as it believes are appropriate to ensure that the level of the basket fund used to determine the amount payable on the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as applicable, is equitable.

---

(ii) All determinations and adjustments to be made by the calculation agent with respect to a basket underlier may be made by the calculation agent in its sole discretion. The calculation agent is not obligated to make any such adjustments.

Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock: The calculation agent will adjust the reference amount of a basket index stock in respect of each event for which adjustment is required under any of the six subsections beginning with “Stock splits” below (and not in respect of any other event). (If more than one such event occurs, the calculation agent shall adjust the reference amount as so provided for each such event, sequentially, in the order in which such events occur, and on a cumulative basis.) Having adjusted the reference amount for any and all such events as so provided, the calculation agent shall determine a closing level for the reference amount as so adjusted on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable. (If the reference amount is adjusted pursuant to “Reorganization events” below so as to consist of distribution property, then the closing level on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, shall equal the sum of the respective closing levels or other values for all such distribution property on the call observation date or the determination date, as provided in “Reorganization events” below.) Having determined the closing level on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, the calculation agent shall use such prices to determine the occurrence of a redemption event, or calculate the cash settlement amount. The calculation agent shall make all adjustments no later than the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this note, if an event for which adjustment is required under any of the six subsections beginning with “Stock splits” below occurs, the calculation agent may make the adjustment and any related determinations and calculations in a manner that differs from that specified in this note as necessary to achieve an equitable result. Upon written request by the holder to the calculation agent, the calculation agent will provide the holder with such information about these adjustments as such agent determines is appropriate.

Stock splits. A stock split is an increase in the number of a corporation’s outstanding shares of stock without any change in its stockholders’ equity. Each outstanding share will be worth less as a result of a stock split. If a basket index stock is subject to a stock split, then at the opening of business on the first day on which such basket index stock trades without the right to receive the stock split, the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount to equal the sum of the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment plus the product of (i) the number of new shares issued in the stock split with respect to one share of such basket index stock times (ii) the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. The reference amount will not be adjusted, however, unless such first day occurs after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Reverse stock splits. A reverse stock split is a decrease in the number of a corporation’s outstanding shares of stock without any change in its stockholders’ equity. Each outstanding share will be worth more as a result of a reverse stock split. If a basket index stock is subject to a reverse stock split, then once the reverse stock split becomes effective, the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount to equal the product of the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the quotient of (i) the number of shares of such basket index stock outstanding immediately after the reverse stock split becomes effective divided by (ii) the number of shares of such basket index stock outstanding immediately before the reverse stock split becomes effective. The reference amount will not be adjusted, however, unless the reverse stock split becomes effective after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Stock dividends. In a stock dividend, a corporation issues additional shares of its stock to all holders of its outstanding shares of its stock in proportion to the shares they own. Each outstanding share will be worth less as a result of a stock dividend. If a basket index stock is subject to a stock dividend that is given ratably to all holders of such basket index stock, then at the opening of business on the ex-dividend date, the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount to equal the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment plus the product of (i) the number of shares issued in the stock dividend with respect to one share of such basket index stock times (ii) the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment. The reference amount will not be adjusted, however, unless such ex-dividend date occurs after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Other dividends and distributions. There will be no adjustments to the reference amount to reflect dividends or other distributions paid with respect to a basket index stock other than:

---

A dividend or other distribution with respect to a basket index stock will be deemed to be an “extraordinary dividend” if its per share value of such dividend or other distribution exceeds the per share value of the immediately preceding dividend or distribution with respect to such basket index stock, if any, that is not an extraordinary dividend by an amount equal to at least 10% of the closing level of such basket index stock on the trading day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date for such extraordinary dividend.

If an extraordinary dividend occurs with respect to a basket index stock, the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount to equal the product of (a) the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the closing level of such basket index stock on the trading day immediately preceding the ex-dividend date and the denominator of which is the amount by which such closing level exceeds the extraordinary dividend amount.

The “extraordinary dividend amount” with respect to an extraordinary dividend for a basket index stock will equal:

To the extent an extraordinary dividend is not paid in cash, the value of the non-cash component will be determined by the calculation agent. A distribution on a basket index stock that constitutes a stock dividend, an issuance of transferable rights or warrants or a spin-off event and also constitutes an extraordinary dividend will result only in an adjustment to the reference amount pursuant to “Stock dividends” above, “Transferable rights and warrants” below or “Reorganization events” below, as applicable. The reference amount will not be adjusted pursuant to this subsection unless the ex-dividend date for the extraordinary dividend occurs after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Transferable rights and warrants. With respect to a basket index stock, if the basket index stock issuer issues transferable rights or warrants to all holders of the basket index stock to subscribe for or purchase the basket index stock at an exercise price per share less than the closing level of the basket index stock on the trading day immediately before the ex-dividend date for such issuance, then the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount by multiplying the reference amount in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction:

The reference amount will not be adjusted, however, unless such ex-dividend date occurs after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

Reorganization events. With respect to a basket index stock, if:

---

then the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount so that the reference amount consists of the respective amounts of each type of distribution property deemed, for the purposes of this note, to be distributed in such reorganization event in respect of the reference amount as in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, taken together.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the calculation agent will not make any adjustment for a reorganization event unless the event becomes effective — or, if the event is a spin-off event, unless the ex-dividend date for the spin-off event occurs — after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

The calculation agent will determine the value of each component type of distribution property, using the closing level on the relevant day for any such type consisting of securities and such other method as it determines to be appropriate, in its sole discretion, for any other type. If a holder of a basket index stock may elect to receive different types or combinations of types of distribution property in the reorganization event, the distribution property will be deemed to include the types and amounts thereof distributed to a holder that makes no election, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion. If a reorganization event occurs and as a result the reference amount is adjusted to consist of distribution property, the calculation agent will make further adjustments for subsequent events that affect such distribution property or any component type thereof, to the same extent that it would make adjustments if a basket index stock were outstanding and were affected by the same kinds of events. The closing level on the call observation date or the determination date will be the total value, as determined by the calculation agent at the close of trading hours of a basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, of all components of the reference amount, with each component having been adjusted on a sequential and cumulative basis for all relevant events affecting it.

The calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, modify the adjustments described in “Reorganization events” as necessary to ensure an equitable result.

If at any time the reference amount consists of distribution property, as determined by the calculation agent, then all references in this note to a “basket index stock” shall thereupon be deemed to mean such distribution property and all references in this note to a “share of basket index stock” shall thereupon be deemed to mean a

---

comparable unit of each type of property comprising such distribution property, as determined by the calculation agent.

Minimum adjustments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment will be required in respect of any event specified in “Stock splits”, “Reverse stock splits”, “Stock dividends”, “Other dividends and distributions” and “Transferable rights and warrants” above unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 0.1% in the closing level of such basket index stock. The closing level of a basket index stock resulting from any adjustment shall be rounded up or down, as appropriate, to the nearest ten-thousandth, with five hundred-thousandths being rounded upward — e.g., 0.12344 will be rounded down to 0.1234 and 0.12345 will be rounded up to 0.1235.

Distribution property: cash, securities and/or other property distributed in any reorganization event in respect of the relevant reference amount and, in the case of a spin-off event, includes such reference amount

Ex-dividend date: for any dividend or other distribution with respect to a basket index stock, the first day on which the basket index stock trades without the right to receive such dividend or other distribution

Reference amount: with respect to a basket index stock, initially, one share of such basket index stock which shall be adjusted, as to the amount(s) and/or type(s) of property comprising the same, by the calculation agent as provided under “Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” above

Anti-dilution adjustments for the basket fund: the calculation agent will have discretion to adjust the closing level of the basket fund if certain events occur (including those described above under “— Discontinuance or modification of a basket underlier that is a basket fund”). In the event that any event other than a delisting or withdrawal from the relevant exchange occurs, the calculation agent shall determine whether and to what extent an adjustment should be made to the level of such basket underlier or any other term. The calculation agent shall have no obligation to make an adjustment for any such event.

Payment 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 the impact that the various hypothetical closing levels of the basket on the call observation date and the various hypothetical basket closing levels or hypothetical closing levels of the basket underliers, as applicable, on the determination date could have on the amount of cash payable on the call payment date or on the stated maturity date, as the case may be, assuming all other variables remain constant.

The examples below are based on a range of basket levels and closing levels of the basket underliers that are entirely hypothetical; no one can predict what the level of the basket will be on any day throughout the life of your notes, and no one can predict what the closing level of the basket will be on the call observation date or on the determination date. The basket underliers have been highly volatile in the past — meaning that the levels of the basket underliers have changed considerably in relatively short periods — and their performances cannot be predicted for any future period.

The information in the following examples reflects hypothetical rates of return on the offered notes assuming that they are purchased on the original issue date at the face amount and held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as the case may be. If you sell your notes 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 notes 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 basket underliers, the creditworthiness of GS Finance Corp., as issuer, and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor. In addition, the estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by GS&Co.) is less than the original issue price of your notes. For more information on the estimated value of your notes, see “Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — The Estimated Value of Your Notes At the Time the Terms of Your Notes Are Set On the Trade Date (as Determined By Reference to Pricing Models Used By GS&Co.) Is Less Than the Original Issue Price Of Your Notes” on page PS-19 of this pricing supplement. The information in the examples also reflects the key terms and assumptions in the box below.

Key Terms and Assumptions
Face amount	$1,000
Initial basket level	100
Upside participation rate	109.2%
Buffer level	85% of the initial basket level
Buffer rate	approximately 117.65%
Buffer amount	15%
The notes are not automatically called, unless otherwise indicated below Neither a market disruption event nor a non-trading day occurs with respect to any basket underlier on any originally scheduled call observation date or the originally scheduled determination date
No change in or affecting any basket underlier, any basket underlier stock, any policy of the applicable basket fund investment advisor or any method by which the applicable underlying index sponsor calculates its underlying index
Notes purchased on original issue date at the face amount and held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date

Moreover, we have not yet set the initial levels of the basket underliers that will serve as the baselines for determining the basket return and the amount, if any, that we will pay on your notes, if any, on the call payment date or at maturity. We will not do so until the trade date. As a result, the actual initial levels of the basket underliers may differ substantially from their levels prior to the trade date.

---

For these reasons, the actual performance of the basket over the life of your notes, as well as the amount payable on the call payment date or at maturity, if any, may bear little relation to the hypothetical examples shown below or to the historical levels of each basket underlier shown elsewhere in this pricing supplement. For information about the historical levels of each basket underlier during recent periods, see “The Basket and the Basket Underliers — Historical Closing Levels of the Basket Underliers” below. Before investing in the offered notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the levels of the basket underliers between the date of this pricing supplement and the date of your purchase of the offered notes.

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 notes, tax liabilities could affect the after-tax rate of return on your notes to a comparatively greater extent than the after-tax return on the basket underliers.

Hypothetical Payment on the Call Payment Date

The example below shows the hypothetical payment that we would pay on the call payment date with respect to each $1,000 face amount of the notes if the closing level of the basket is greater than or equal to the initial basket level on the call observation date.

If your notes are automatically called on the call observation date (i.e., on the call observation date the closing level of the basket is greater than or equal to the initial basket level), the amount in cash that we would deliver for each $1,000 face amount of your notes on the call payment date would be $1,145. If, for example, the closing level of the basket on the call observation date were determined to be 120% of the initial basket level, your notes would be automatically called and the amount in cash that we would deliver on your notes on the call payment date would be 114.5% of the face amount of your notes or $1,145 for each $1,000 of the face amount of your notes.

Hypothetical Payment at Maturity

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

The Notes Have Not Been Automatically Called
Hypothetical Final Basket Level (as Percentage of Initial Basket Level)	Hypothetical Cash Settlement Amount (as Percentage of Face Amount)
200.000%	209.200%
175.000%	181.910%
150.000%	154.600%
125.000%	127.300%
100.000%	100.000%
95.000%	100.000%
90.000%	100.000%
85.000%	100.000%
75.000%	88.235%
50.000%	58.824%
25.000%	29.412%
0.000%	0.000%

If, for example, the notes have not been automatically called on the call observation date and the final basket level were determined to be 25.000% of the initial basket level, the cash settlement amount that we would

---

deliver on your notes at maturity would be approximately 29.412% of the face amount of your notes, as shown in the table above. As a result, if you purchased your notes on the original issue date at the face amount and held them to the stated maturity date, you would lose approximately 70.588% of your investment (if you purchased your notes at a premium to face amount you would lose a correspondingly higher percentage of your investment).

The amounts shown above are entirely hypothetical; they are based on market prices for the basket underlier stocks that may not be achieved on the call observation date or the determination date, as the case may be, and on assumptions that may prove to be erroneous. The actual market value of your notes on the stated maturity date or at any other time, including any time you may wish to sell your notes, may bear little relation to the hypothetical amounts shown above, and these amounts should not be viewed as an indication of the financial return on an investment in the offered notes. The hypothetical amounts on notes held to the stated maturity date in the examples above assume you purchased your notes at their face amount and have not been adjusted to reflect the actual issue price you pay for your notes. The return on your investment (whether positive or negative) in your notes will be affected by the amount you pay for your notes. If you purchase your notes for a price other than the face 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 “Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — The Market Value of Your Notes May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors” on page PS-20.

Payments on the notes are economically equivalent to the amounts that would be paid on a combination of other instruments. For example, payments on the notes are economically equivalent to a combination of an interest-bearing bond bought by the holder 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 notes or the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes, as described elsewhere in this pricing supplement.

We cannot predict the actual closing level of the basket on the call observation date or the determination date or what the market value of your notes will be on any particular trading day, nor can we predict the relationship between the level of each basket underlier and the market value of your notes at any time prior to the stated maturity date. The actual amount that you will receive, if any, on the call payment date or at maturity and the rate of return on the offered notes will depend on whether the notes are automatically called and the actual initial level of each basket underlier, which we will set on the trade date, and the actual basket return determined by the calculation agent as described above. Moreover, the assumptions on which the hypothetical returns are based may turn out to be inaccurate. Consequently, the amount of cash to be paid in respect of your notes, if any, on the call payment date or the stated maturity date may be very different from the hypothetical cash settlement amounts shown in the examples above.

Anti-dilution Adjustment Examples for a Basket Index Stock

The calculation agent will adjust the closing level of a basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, only if an event described under one of the six subsections beginning with “Stock splits” under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” occurs and only if the relevant event occurs during the period described under the applicable subsection. The adjustments described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” do not cover all events that could affect the closing level of a basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, such as an issuer tender or exchange offer for such basket index stock at a premium to its market price or a tender or exchange offer made by a third party for less than all outstanding shares of such basket index stock. We describe the risks relating to dilution under “Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — You Have Limited Anti-dilution Protection” below.

How Adjustments Will Be Made

In this pricing supplement, we refer to anti-dilution adjustment of the closing level of a basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable. With respect to a basket index stock, if an event requiring anti-dilution adjustment occurs, the calculation agent will make the adjustment by taking the following steps:

Step One. The calculation agent will adjust the reference amount. This term refers to the amount of the basket index stock or other property that must be used to determine the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable. For example, if no adjustment described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” is required at a time, the reference amount for that time will be one share of the basket index stock. In that case, the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, will be the closing level of one share of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date. We describe how the closing level will be determined under “Terms and Conditions — Closing level” above.

If an adjustment described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” is required because one of the dilution events described in the first five subsections beginning with “Stock splits” under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” — these involve stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, other dividends and distributions and issuances of transferable rights and warrants — occurs, then the adjusted reference amount at that time might instead be, for example, two shares of the basket index stock or a half share of the basket index stock, depending on the event. In that example, the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, would be the price (determined as specified under “Terms and Conditions — Closing level” above) at the close of trading on the call observation date or the determination date of two shares of the basket index stock or a half share of the basket index stock, as applicable.

If an adjustment described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” is required at a time because one of the reorganization events described under “Terms and Conditions — Reorganization events” — these involve events in which cash, securities or other property is distributed in respect of the basket index stock — occurs, then the reference amount at that time will be adjusted to be as follows, assuming there has been no prior or subsequent anti-dilution adjustment: the amount of each type of the property distributed in the reorganization event in respect of one share of the basket index stock, plus one share of the basket index stock if the basket index stock remains outstanding. In that event, the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, would be the value of the adjusted reference amount at the close of trading on the call observation date or the determination date.

The manner in which the calculation agent adjusts the reference amount in step one will depend on the type of dilution event requiring adjustment. These events and the nature of the required adjustments are described in the six subsections beginning with “Stock splits” under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock”.

Step Two. Having adjusted the reference amount in step one, the calculation agent will determine the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, in the following manner.

If the adjusted reference amount at the applicable time consists entirely of shares of the basket index stock, the basket index stock level will be the closing level (determined as described under “Terms and Conditions — Closing level” above) of the adjusted reference amount on the applicable date.

On the other hand, if the adjusted reference amount at the applicable time includes any property other than shares of the basket index stock, the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the

---

determination date, as applicable, will be the value of the adjusted reference amount as determined by the calculation agent in the manner described under “— Adjustments for Reorganization Events” below at the applicable time.

Step Three. Having determined the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, in step two, the calculation agent will use such level to determine the occurrence of a redemption event or to calculate the cash settlement amount.

If more than one event requiring adjustment as described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” occurs, the calculation agent will first adjust the reference amount as described in step one above for each event, sequentially, in the order in which the events occur, and on a cumulative basis. Thus, having adjusted the reference amount for the first event, the calculation agent will repeat step one for the second event, applying the required adjustment to the reference amount as already adjusted for the first event, and so on for each event. Having adjusted the reference amount for all events, the calculation agent will then take the remaining applicable steps in the process described above, determining the closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, using the reference amount as sequentially and cumulatively adjusted for all the relevant events. The calculation agent will make all required determinations and adjustments no later than the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

The calculation agent will adjust the reference amount for each reorganization event described under “Terms and Conditions — Reorganization events” above. For any other dilution event described above, however, the calculation agent will not be required to adjust the reference amount unless the adjustment would result in a change of at least 0.1% in the basket index stock level that would apply without the adjustment. The closing level of the basket index stock on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, resulting from any adjustment will be rounded up or down, as appropriate, to the nearest ten-thousandth, with five hundred-thousandths being rounded upward — e.g., 0.12344 will be rounded down to 0.1234 and 0.12345 will be rounded up to 0.1235.

If an event requiring anti-dilution adjustment occurs, the calculation agent will make the adjustment with a view to offsetting, to the extent practical, any change in the economic position of the holder, GS Finance Corp., as issuer, and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor, relative to your notes, that results solely from that event. The calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, modify the anti-dilution adjustments as necessary to ensure an equitable result.

The calculation agent will make all determinations with respect to anti-dilution adjustments, including any determination as to whether an event requiring adjustment has occurred, as to the nature of the adjustment required and how it will be made or as to the value of any property distributed in a reorganization event, and will do so in its sole discretion. In the absence of manifest error, those determinations will be conclusive for all purposes and will be binding on you and us, without any liability on the part of the calculation agent. The calculation agent will provide information about the adjustments it makes upon written request by the holder.

In this pricing supplement, when we say that the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount for one or more dilution events, we mean that the calculation agent will take all the applicable steps described above with respect to those events.

The six subsections beginning with “Stock splits” under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock” describe the dilution events for which the reference amount is to be adjusted. Each subsection describes the manner in which the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount — the first step in the adjustment process described above — for the relevant event.

Adjustments for Reorganization Events

If a reorganization event occurs, then the calculation agent will adjust the reference amount so that it consists of the amount of each type of distribution property described under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock — Reorganization events” above distributed in respect of one share of a basket index stock — or in respect of whatever the prior reference amount may be — in the reorganization event, taken together. For purposes of the three-step adjustment process described under “— How Adjustments Will Be Made” above, the distribution property so distributed will be the adjusted reference amount described in step one, the value of that property at the close of trading hours for a basket index stock on the applicable date will be the basket index stock level described in step two, and the calculation agent will determine the occurrence of a redemption event or will calculate the cash settlement amount as described in step three. As described under “— How Adjustments Will Be Made” above, the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, modify the adjustments described in this paragraph as necessary to ensure an equitable result.

---

The calculation agent will determine the value of each type of distribution property in its sole discretion. For any distribution property consisting of a security, the calculation agent will use the closing level (calculated according to the same methodology as specified in this pricing supplement, without any anti-dilution adjustments) of one share of such security on the applicable date. The calculation agent may value other types of property in any manner it determines, in its sole discretion, to be appropriate. If a holder of a basket index stock may elect to receive different types or combinations of types of distribution property in the reorganization event, the distribution property will consist of the types and amounts of each type distributed to a holder that makes no election, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion. As described under “— How Adjustments Will Be Made” above, the calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, modify the adjustments described in this paragraph as necessary to ensure an equitable result.

If a reorganization event occurs and the calculation agent adjusts the reference amount to consist of the distribution property distributed in the reorganization event, as described above, the calculation agent will make any further anti-dilution adjustments for later events that affect the distribution property, or any component of the distribution property, comprising the new reference amount. The calculation agent will do so to the same extent that it would make adjustments if a basket index stock were outstanding and were affected by the same kinds of events. If a subsequent reorganization event affects only a particular component of the reference amount, the required adjustment will be made with respect to that component, as if it alone were the reference amount.

For example, if a basket index stock issuer merges into another company and each share of such basket index stock is converted into the right to receive two common shares of the surviving company and a specified amount of cash, the reference amount will be adjusted to consist of two common shares of the surviving company and the specified amount of cash for each share of basket index stock (adjusted proportionately for any partial share) comprising the reference amount before the adjustment. The calculation agent will adjust the common share component of the adjusted reference amount to reflect any later stock split or other event, including any later reorganization event, that affects the common shares of the surviving company, to the extent described in this subsection entitled “— Anti-dilution Adjustment Examples for a Basket Stock” as if the common shares of the surviving company were such basket index stock. In that event, the cash component will not be adjusted but will continue to be a component of the reference amount. Consequently, each component included in the reference amount will be adjusted on a sequential and cumulative basis for all relevant events requiring adjustment up to the relevant date.

The calculation agent will not make any adjustment for a reorganization event, however, unless the event becomes effective (or, if the event is a spin-off, unless the ex-dividend date for the spin-off occurs) after the trade date and on or before the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable.

ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS SPECIFIC TO YOUR NOTES

An investment in your notes is subject to the risks described below, as well as the risks and considerations described in the accompanying prospectus, in the accompanying prospectus supplement 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 notes described herein and in the accompanying prospectus, the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999. Your notes are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, your notes are not equivalent to investing directly in a basket index stock, the basket fund or the basket underlier stocks (i.e., with respect to the basket fund to which your notes are linked, the stocks comprising such basket underlier). You should carefully consider whether the offered notes are appropriate given your particular circumstances.

Risks Related to Structure, Valuation and Secondary Market Sales

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

The original issue price for your notes exceeds the estimated value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date, as determined by reference to GS&Co.’s pricing models and taking into account our credit spreads. Such estimated value on the trade date is set forth above under “Estimated Value of Your Notes”; after the trade 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 notes (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 notes as determined by reference to these models. As agreed by GS&Co. and the distribution participants, this excess (i.e., the additional amount described under “Estimated Value of Your Notes”) will decline to zero on a straight line basis over the period from the date hereof through the applicable date set forth above under “Estimated Value of Your Notes”. Thereafter, if GS&Co. buys or sells your notes 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 notes at any time also will reflect its then current bid and ask spread for similar sized trades of structured notes.

In estimating the value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade date, as disclosed above under “Estimated Value of Your Notes”, 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 notes. 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 notes in the secondary market, if any, to others may differ, perhaps materially, from the estimated value of your notes 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 Notes May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors” below.

The difference between the estimated value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the trade 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 notes, 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 notes. We pay to GS&Co. amounts based on what we would pay to holders of a non-structured note with a similar maturity. In return for such payment, GS&Co. pays to us the amounts we owe under your notes.

In addition to the factors discussed above, the value and quoted price of your notes at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted. If GS&Co. makes a market in the notes, 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 notes, including the price you may receive for your notes in any market making transaction. To the extent that GS&Co. makes a market in the notes, 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 notes (and subject to the declining excess amount described above).

Furthermore, if you sell your notes, 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 notes in a secondary market sale.

There is no assurance that GS&Co. or any other party will be willing to purchase your notes at any price and, in this regard, GS&Co. is not obligated to make a market in the notes. See “Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes — Your Notes May Not Have an Active Trading Market” on page S-7 of the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999.

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

Although the return on the notes will be based on the performance of the basket underliers, the payment of any amount due on the notes is subject to the credit risk of GS Finance Corp., as issuer of the notes, and the credit risk

---

of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. as guarantor of the notes. The notes are our unsecured obligations. Investors are dependent on our ability to pay all amounts due on the notes, 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 notes, to pay all amounts due on the notes, 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-5 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 or on the Stated Maturity Date is Not Linked to the Closing Level of the Basket at Any Time Other Than on the Call Observation Date or the Determination Date, as the Case May Be

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

You May Lose Your Entire Investment in the Notes

You can lose your entire investment in the notes. Assuming your notes are not automatically called on the call observation date, the cash settlement amount on your notes, if any, on the stated maturity date will be based on the performance of a weighted basket, comprised of the basket underliers, as measured from the initial basket level of 100 to the final basket level on the determination date. If the final basket level for your notes is less than the buffer level, you will have a loss for each $1,000 of the face amount of your notes equal to the product of (i) $1,000 times (ii) the buffer rate times (iii) the sum of the basket return plus the buffer amount. Thus, you may lose your entire investment in the notes, which would include any premium to face amount you paid when you purchased the notes.

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

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

Regardless of the closing level of the basket on the call observation date, the amount in cash you may receive on the call payment date is capped. Even if the closing level of the basket on the call observation date exceeds the initial basket level, causing the notes to be automatically called, the amount in cash payable on the call payment date will be capped, and you will not benefit from any increase in the closing level of the basket above the initial basket level on the call observation date. If your notes are automatically called on the call observation date, the maximum payment you will receive for each $1,000 face amount of your notes will be $1,145.

Your Notes Are Subject to Automatic Redemption

We will automatically call and redeem all, but not part, of your notes on the call payment date if the closing level of the basket on the call observation date is greater than or equal to the initial basket level. Therefore, the term for your notes may be reduced. You may not be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the notes at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the notes are called prior to maturity. For the avoidance of doubt, if your notes are automatically called, no discounts, commissions or fees described herein will be rebated or reduced.

Your Notes Do Not Bear Interest

You will not receive any interest payments on your notes. As a result, even if the cash settlement amount payable for your notes on the call payment date or the stated maturity date, as applicable, exceeds the face amount of your notes, the overall return you earn on your notes may be less than you would have earned by investing in a non-indexed debt security of comparable maturity that bears interest at a prevailing market rate.

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

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

---

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

These factors may influence the market value of your notes if you sell your notes before maturity, including the price you may receive for your notes in any market making transaction. If you sell your notes prior to maturity, you may receive less than the face amount of your notes. You cannot predict the future performance of the basket underliers based on their historical performance.

The Lower Performance of One Basket Underlier May Offset an Increase in the Other Basket Underliers

Declines in the level of one basket underlier may offset increases in the levels of the other basket underliers. As a result, any return on the basket — and thus on your notes — may be reduced or eliminated, which will have the effect of reducing the amount payable in respect of your notes at maturity.

We Will Not Hold Shares of the Basket Index Stocks for Your Benefit

The indenture governing your note does not contain any restriction on our ability or the ability of any of our affiliates to sell, pledge or otherwise convey a share or shares of the basket index stocks acquired by us or them. Neither we nor our affiliates will pledge or otherwise hold shares of the basket index stocks for your benefit in order to enable you to exchange your note for shares under any circumstances. Consequently, in the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation, any shares of the basket index stocks owned by us will be subject to the claims of our creditors generally and will not be available for your benefit specifically.

You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Shares of Any Basket Index Stock, the Basket Fund or Any Basket Underlier Stock

Investing in your notes will not make you a holder of any shares of any basket index stock, the basket fund or any basket underlier stocks. Neither you nor any other holder or owner of your notes will have any rights with respect to the basket index stock, any basket fund or the basket underlier stocks, including any voting rights, any right to receive dividends or other distributions, any rights to make a claim against the basket index stocks, the basket fund or basket underlier stocks, or any other rights of a holder of any shares of the basket index stocks, basket fund or basket underlier stocks. Your notes will be paid in cash and you will have no right to receive delivery of any shares of the basket index stock, the basket funds or any basket underlier stocks.

In Some Circumstances, the Payment You Receive On the Notes May Be Based On the Securities of Another Company and Not the Issuer of a Basket Index Stock

Following certain corporate events relating to a basket index stock where its issuer is not the surviving entity, the amount you receive at maturity may be based on the securities of a successor to such basket index stock issuer or any cash or any other assets distributed to holders of shares of such basket index stock in such corporate event. The occurrence of these corporate events and the consequent adjustments may materially and adversely affect the value of the notes. We describe the specific corporate events that can lead to these adjustments and the procedures for selecting distribution property (as described above) under “Terms and Conditions — Anti-dilution adjustments for a basket index stock”.

The Return on Your Notes Will Not Reflect Any Dividends Paid on the Basket Index Stock, Any Basket Fund or the Basket Stocks

The return on your notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the basket index stock, basket funds or basket underlier stocks and received the distributions paid on the shares of the basket index stock or basket funds. You will not receive any dividends that may be paid on any of the basket underlier stocks by the basket underlier stock issuers or the shares of the basket index stock or basket funds. See “— You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Shares of the Basket Index Stock, Any Basket Fund or Any Basket Underlier Stock” below for additional information.

There Is No Affiliation Between the Basket Index Stock Issuers and Us

Goldman Sachs is not affiliated with the basket index stock issuers. As discussed above, however, we or our affiliates may currently or from time to time in the future engage in business with the basket index stock issuers. Neither we nor any of our affiliates have participated in the preparation of any publicly available information or made any “due diligence” investigation or inquiry with respect to the basket index stock issuers. You, as an investor in your note, should make your own investigation into the basket index stock issuers.

The basket index stock issuers are not involved in this offering of your notes in any way and do not have any obligation of any sort with respect to your notes. Thus, the basket index stock issuers do not have any obligation to take your interests into consideration for any reason, including in taking or not taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your notes.

We May Sell an Additional Aggregate Face Amount of the Notes at a Different Issue Price

At our sole option, we may decide to sell an additional aggregate face amount of the notes subsequent to the date of this pricing supplement. The issue price of the notes 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 Notes at a Premium to Face Amount, the Return on Your Investment Will Be Lower Than the Return on Notes Purchased at Face Amount and the Impact of Certain Key Terms of the Notes Will Be Negatively Affected

The amount in cash that you may be paid on your notes on the call payment date or the stated maturity date will not be adjusted based on the issue price you pay for the notes. If you purchase notes at a price that differs from the face amount of the notes, then the return on your investment in such notes held to the call payment date or the stated maturity date will differ from, and may be substantially less than, the return on notes purchased at face amount. If you purchase your notes at a premium to face amount and hold them to the call payment date or the stated maturity date the return on your investment in the notes will be lower than it would have been had you purchased the notes at face amount or a discount to face amount. In addition, the impact of the buffer level on the return on your investment will depend upon the price you pay for your notes relative to face amount. For example, if you purchase your notes at a premium to face amount, the buffer level, while still providing some protection for the return on the notes, will allow a greater percentage decrease in your investment in the notes than would have been the case for notes purchased at face amount or a discount to face amount.

Additional Risks Related to the Common Stock of Constellation Energy Corporation

The Common Stock of Constellation Energy Corporation Has a Very Limited Trading History

Your notes are linked, in part, to the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation that has only recently commenced public trading and, therefore, has very limited historical performance. Because the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation has no historical closing prices prior to the date its common stock commenced trading, limited historical basket index stock information will be available for you to consider in making an independent investigation of its basket index stock performance, which may make it difficult for you to make an informed decision with respect to the notes. Further, because the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation has a very limited trading history, your investment in the notes may involve greater risks than an investment in notes linked to the securities of companies with a more established record of performance. For additional information about the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation, see “The Basket and the Basket Underliers — The Basket Index Stocks”. No future performance of the common stock of Constellation Energy Corporation can be predicted based on the historical basket index stock performance information described herein.

Additional Risks Related to the Basket Fund

The Policies of the Basket Fund’s Investment Advisor and the Sponsor of the Basket Fund’s Underlying Index Could Affect the Amount Payable on Your Notes and Their Market Value

The basket fund’s investment advisor may from time to time be called upon to make certain policy decisions or judgments with respect to the basket fund, including those concerning the calculation of the net asset value of the basket fund, additions, deletions or substitutions of securities in the basket fund and the manner in which changes affecting its underlying index are reflected in the basket fund that could affect the market price of the shares of the basket fund, and therefore, the amount payable on your notes on the stated maturity date and the market value of your notes before that date. The amount payable on your notes and their market value could also be affected if the basket fund investment advisor changes these policies, for example, by changing the manner in which it calculates the net asset value of the basket fund, or if the basket fund investment advisor discontinues or suspends calculation or publication of the net asset value of the basket fund, in which case it may become difficult or inappropriate to determine the market value of your notes.

If events such as these occur, the calculation agent — which initially will be GS&Co., our affiliate — may determine the closing level of the basket fund on the call observation date or the determination date — and thus the amount payable on the call payment date or the stated maturity date, if any — in a manner it considers appropriate, in its sole discretion. We describe the discretion that the calculation agent will have in determining the closing level of the basket fund on the call observation date or the determination date, as applicable, and the amount payable on your notes more fully under “Terms and Conditions — Discontinuance or modification of an underlier that is a basket fund” above.

In addition, the sponsor of the basket fund’s underlying index owns the underlying index and is responsible for the design and maintenance of its underlying index. The policies of the sponsor of the basket fund’s underlying index concerning the calculation of its underlying index, including decisions regarding the addition, deletion or substitution of the equity securities included in its underlying index, could affect the level of its underlying index and, consequently, could affect the market prices of shares of the basket fund and, therefore, the amount payable on your notes and their market value.

There Is No Assurance That an Active Trading Market Will Continue for the Basket Fund or That There Will Be Liquidity in Any Such Trading Market; Further, the Basket Fund Is Subject to Management Risks, Securities Lending Risks and Custody Risks

Although the shares of the basket fund and a number of similar products have been listed for trading on securities exchanges for varying periods of time, there is no assurance that an active trading market will continue for the shares of the basket fund or that there will be liquidity in the trading market.

In addition, the basket fund is subject to management risk, which is the risk that the basket fund investment advisor’s investment strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints, may not produce the intended results. The basket fund is also not actively managed and may be affected by a general decline in market segments relating to its underlying index. The basket fund investment advisor invests in securities included in, or representative of, its underlying index regardless of their investment merits. The basket fund investment advisor does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. In addition, the basket fund investment advisor may be permitted to engage in securities lending with respect to a portion of the basket fund's total assets, which could subject the basket fund to the risk that the borrower of such loaned securities fails to return the securities in a timely manner or at all.

In addition, the basket fund is subject to custody risk, which refers to the risks in the process of clearing and settling trades and to the holding of securities by local banks, agents and depositories. Low trading volumes and volatile prices in less developed markets make trades harder to complete and settle, and governments or trade groups may compel local agents to hold securities in designated depositories that are not subject to independent evaluation. The less developed a country’s securities market is, the greater the likelihood of custody problems.

Further, the basket fund is subject to listing standards adopted by the securities exchange on which the basket fund is listed for trading. There can be no assurance that the basket fund will continue to meet the applicable listing requirements, or that the basket fund will not be delisted.

The Basket Fund and Its Underlying Index Are Different and the Performance of the Basket Fund May Not Correlate With the Performance of Its Underlying Index

The basket fund may not hold all or substantially all of the equity securities included in the underlying index and may hold securities or assets not included in the underlying index. Therefore, while the performance of the basket fund is generally linked to the performance of the underlying index, the performance of the basket fund is also linked in part to shares of equity securities not included in the underlying index and to the performance of other assets, such as futures contracts, options and swaps, as well as cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds affiliated with the basket fund investment advisor.

Imperfect correlation between the basket fund’s portfolio securities and those in the underlying index, rounding of prices, changes to the underlying index and regulatory requirements may cause tracking error, which is the divergence of the basket fund’s performance from that of the underlying index.

In addition, the performance of the basket fund will reflect additional transaction costs and fees that are not included in the calculation of its underlying index and this may increase the tracking error of the basket fund. Also,

---

corporate actions with respect to the sample of equity securities (such as mergers and spin-offs) may impact the performance differential between the basket fund and the underlying index. Finally, because the shares of the basket fund are traded on an exchange and are subject to market supply and investor demand, the market value of one share of the basket fund may differ from the net asset value per share of the basket fund.

For all of the foregoing reasons, the performance of the basket fund may not correlate with the performance of its underlying index. Consequently, the return on your notes will not be the same as investing directly in the basket fund’s underlying index or in the stocks comprising the basket fund’s underlying index, and will not be the same as investing in a debt security with a payment at maturity linked to the performance of its underlying index.

The Basket Fund Is Concentrated in Companies That Are Active in the Uranium Industry and Does Not Provide Diversified Exposure

The basket fund is not diversified. The basket fund’s assets will be concentrated in companies that are active in the uranium industry (“uranium companies”), which means the basket fund is more likely to be adversely affected by any negative performance of uranium companies than a basket fund that has more diversified holdings across a number of sectors. Uranium companies are exposed to risks related to the exploration industry, the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry, the energy sector, and the uranium mining industry.

The exploration and development of mineral deposits involve significant financial risks over a significant period of time, which even a combination of careful evaluation, experience and knowledge may not eliminate. Few properties which are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. Major expenditures may be required to establish reserves by drilling and to construct mining and processing facilities at a site. In addition, mineral exploration companies typically operate at a loss and are dependent on securing equity and/or debt financing, which might be more difficult to secure for an exploration company than for a more established counterpart.

The value of securities issued by companies in the energy sector may decline for many reasons, including, without limitation, changes in energy prices; international politics; energy conservation; the success of exploration projects; natural disasters or other catastrophes; changes in exchange rates, interest rates, or economic conditions; changes in demand for energy products and services; and tax and other government regulatory policies. Actions taken by central governments may dramatically impact supply and demand forces that influence energy prices, resulting in sudden decreases in value for companies in the energy sector.

The oil, gas and consumable fuels industry is cyclical and highly dependent on the market price of fuel. The market value of companies in the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry are strongly affected by the levels and volatility of global commodity prices, supply and demand, capital expenditures on exploration and production, energy conservation efforts, the prices of alternative fuels, exchange rates and technological advances. Companies in the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry are subject to substantial government regulation and contractual fixed pricing, which may increase the cost of business and limit these companies’ earnings. Actions taken by central governments may dramatically impact supply and demand forces that influence the market price of fuel, resulting in sudden decreases in value for companies in the oil, gas and consumable fuels industry. A significant portion of their revenues depends on a relatively small number of customers, including governmental entities and utilities. As a result, governmental budget restraints may have a material adverse effect on the stock prices of companies in the industry.

Uranium companies may be significantly subject to the effects of competitive pressures in the uranium mining industry and the price of uranium. The price of uranium may be affected by changes in inflation rates, interest rates, monetary policy, economic conditions, and political stability. The price of uranium may fluctuate substantially over short periods of time, therefore the basket fund’s price may be more volatile than other types of investments. In addition, uranium mining companies may also be significantly affected by import controls, worldwide competition, liability for environmental damage, depletion of resources, and mandated expenditures for safety and pollution control devices. The primary demand for uranium is from the nuclear energy industry, which uses uranium as fuel for nuclear power plants. Demand for nuclear energy may face considerable risk as a result of, among other risks, incidents and accidents, breaches of security, ill-intentioned acts or terrorism, air crashes, natural disasters (such as floods or earthquakes), equipment malfunctions or mishandling in storage, handling, transportation, treatment or conditioning of substances and nuclear materials.

The Sponsor of the Underlying Index, Solactive AG, Will Have Authority to Make Determinations that Could Affect the Value of Your Notes and the Amount You Receive at Maturity. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Owns a Non-Controlling Interest in Solactive AG

The Solactive Global Uranium & Nuclear Components Total Return Index is calculated, administrated and distributed by Solactive AG (“Solactive”). The exercise of discretion by Solactive could adversely affect the value of your notes. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. owns a non-controlling interest in Solactive.

The Basket Fund May Be Disproportionately Affected By the Performance of a Small Number of Stocks

Although the basket fund held 48 stocks as of June 24, 2024, approximately 24.76% of the Global X Uranium ETF was invested in a single stock – Cameco Corporation. As a result, a decline in the price of one stock, including as a result of events negatively affecting one company, may have the effect of significantly lowering the level of the basket fund even if none of the other stocks held by the basket fund are affected by such events. Because of the weighting of the holdings of the basket fund, the amount you receive at maturity could be less than the cash settlement amount you would have received if you had invested in a product linked to a basket fund that capped the maximum weight of any one stock to a low amount or that equally weighted all stocks held by such basket fund.

An Investment in the Offered Notes Is Subject to Risks Associated with Foreign Securities Markets

The value of your notes is linked to a basket fund that holds, in part, stocks traded in one or more foreign securities markets. Investments linked to the value of foreign equity securities involve particular risks. Any foreign securities market may be less liquid, more volatile and affected by global or domestic market developments in a different way than are the U.S. securities market or other foreign securities markets. Both government intervention in a foreign securities market, either directly or indirectly, and cross-shareholdings in foreign companies, may affect trading prices and volumes in that market. Also, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies than about those U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, foreign companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements that differ from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies.

The prices of securities in a foreign country are subject to political, economic, financial and social factors that are unique to such foreign country's geographical region. These factors include: recent changes, or the possibility of future changes, in the applicable foreign government's economic and fiscal policies; the possible implementation of, or changes in, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions applicable to foreign companies or investments in foreign equity securities; fluctuations, or the possibility of fluctuations, in currency exchange rates; and the possibility of outbreaks of hostility, political instability, natural disaster or adverse public health developments. For example, the United Kingdom ceased to be a member of the European Union on January 31, 2020 (an event commonly referred to as “Brexit”). The effects of Brexit are uncertain, and, among other things, Brexit has contributed, and may continue to contribute, to volatility in the prices of securities of companies located in Europe (or elsewhere) and currency exchange rates, including the valuation of the euro and British pound in particular. Any one of these factors, or the combination of more than one of these factors, could negatively affect such foreign securities market and the price of securities therein. Further, geographical regions may react to global factors in different ways, which may cause the prices of securities in a foreign securities market to fluctuate in a way that differs from those of securities in the U.S. securities market or other foreign securities markets. Foreign economies may also differ from the U.S. economy in important respects, including growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency, which may have a positive or negative effect on foreign securities prices.

Because foreign exchanges may be open on days when the basket fund is not traded, the value of the securities underlying the basket fund may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or sell shares of the basket fund. This could result in premiums or discounts to the basket fund's net asset value that may be greater than those experienced by a basket fund that does not hold foreign assets.

The basket fund holds stocks traded in the equity markets of emerging market countries. Countries with emerging markets may have relatively unstable governments, may present the risks of nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership and prohibitions on the repatriation of assets, and may have less protection of property rights than more developed countries. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions, and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens or inflation rates. Local securities markets may trade a small number of securities and may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of holdings difficult or impossible at times. It will also likely be more costly and difficult for the basket fund investment advisor to enforce the laws or regulations of a foreign country or trading facility, and it is possible that the foreign country or trading facility may not have laws or regulations which adequately protect the rights and interests of investors in the stocks included in the basket fund.

Government Regulatory Action, Including Legislative Acts and Executive Orders, Could Result in Material Changes to the Composition of a Basket Fund with Basket Underlier Stocks from One or More Foreign Securities Markets and Could Negatively Affect Your Investment in the Notes

Government regulatory action, including legislative acts and executive orders, could cause material changes to the composition of a basket fund with basket underlier stocks from one or more foreign securities markets and could negatively affect your investment in the notes in a variety of ways, depending on the nature of such government regulatory action and the basket underlier stocks that are affected. For example, recent executive orders issued by the United States Government prohibit United States persons from purchasing or selling publicly traded securities of certain companies that are determined to operate or have operated in the defense and related materiel sector or the surveillance technology sector of the economy of the People’s Republic of China, or publicly traded securities that are derivative of, or that are designed to provide investment exposure to, those securities (including indexed notes). If the prohibitions in those executive orders (or prohibitions under other government regulatory action) become applicable to basket underlier stocks that are currently included in a basket fund or that in the future are included in a basket fund, such basket underlier stocks may be removed from a basket fund. If government regulatory action results in the removal of basket underlier stocks that have (or historically have had) significant weight in a basket fund, such removal could have a material and negative effect on the level of such basket fund and, therefore, your investment in the notes. Similarly, if basket underlier stocks that are subject to those executive orders or subject to other government regulatory action are not removed from a basket fund, the value of the notes could be materially and negatively affected, and transactions in, or holdings of, the notes may become prohibited under United States law. Any failure to remove such basket underlier stocks from a basket fund could result in the loss of a significant portion or all of your investment in the notes, including if you attempt to divest the notes at a time when the value of the notes has declined.

---

Your Investment in the Notes Will Be Subject to Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

The basket fund holds assets that are denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. The value of the assets held by the basket fund that are denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies will be adjusted to reflect their U.S. dollar value by converting the price of such assets from the non-U.S. dollar currency to U.S. dollars. Consequently, if the value of the U.S. dollar strengthens against the non-U.S. dollar currency in which an asset is denominated, the price of the basket fund may not increase even if the non-dollar value of the asset held by the basket fund increases.

Foreign currency exchange rates vary over time, and may vary considerably during the term of your notes. Changes in a particular exchange rate result from the interaction of many factors directly or indirectly affecting economic and political conditions. Of particular importance are:

All of these factors are, in turn, sensitive to the monetary, fiscal and trade policies pursued by the governments of the relevant foreign countries and the United States and other countries important to international trade and finance.

The market price of the notes and price of the basket fund could also be adversely affected by delays in, or refusals to grant, any required governmental approval for conversions of a local currency and remittances abroad or other de facto restrictions on the repatriation of U.S. dollars.

Regulators in various countries are in the process of investigating the potential manipulation of published currency exchange rates. If such manipulation has occurred or is continuing, certain published exchange rates may have been, or may be in the future, artificially lower (or higher) than they would otherwise have been. Any such manipulation could have an adverse impact on any payments on, and the value of, your notes and the trading market for your notes. In addition, we cannot predict whether any changes or reforms affecting the determination or publication of exchange rates or the supervision of currency trading will be implemented in connection with these investigations. Any such changes or reforms could also adversely impact your notes.

Even Though Currencies Trade Around-The-Clock, Your Notes Will Not

Your notes are linked to a basket fund that holds assets denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies. The interbank market in foreign currencies is a global, around-the-clock market. Therefore, the hours of trading for your notes, if any trading market develops, will not conform to the hours during which the currencies in which the basket fund is denominated or in which the basket underlier stocks trade. Significant price and rate movements may take place in the underlying foreign currency exchange markets that will not be reflected immediately in the price of your notes. The possibility of these movements should be taken into account in relating the value of your notes to those in the underlying foreign currency exchange markets. There is no systematic reporting of last-sale information for foreign currencies. Reasonably current bid and offer information is available in certain brokers’ offices, in bank foreign currency trading offices and to others who wish to subscribe for this information, but this information will not necessarily be reflected in the value of the basket fund used to calculate the amount payable on your notes. There is no regulatory requirement that those quotations be firm or revised on a timely basis. The absence of last-sale information and the limited availability of quotations to individual investors may make it difficult for many investors to obtain timely, accurate data about the state of the underlying foreign currency exchange markets.

Risks Related to Tax

The Tax Consequences of an Investment in Your Notes Are Uncertain

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

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 notes, and any such guidance could adversely affect the tax treatment and the value of your notes. 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 notes 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 notes. 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 the notes 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 notes in your particular circumstances.

---

Your Notes May Be Subject to the Constructive Ownership Rules

There exists a risk that the constructive ownership rules of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code could apply to all or a portion of your notes. If all or a portion of your notes were subject to the constructive ownership rules, then all or a portion of any long-term capital gain that you realize upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes would be re-characterized as ordinary income (and you would be subject to an interest charge on deferred tax liability with respect to such re-characterized capital gain) to the extent that such capital gain exceeds the amount of “net underlying long-term capital gain” (as defined in Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code). Because the application of the constructive ownership rules is unclear you are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the possible application of the constructive ownership rules to your investment in the notes.

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

The Basket Index Stocks

Where Information About the Basket Index Stock Issuers Can Be Obtained

The basket index stocks are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Companies with securities registered under the Exchange Act are required to file financial and other information specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) periodically. Information filed by the basket index stock issuer with the SEC electronically can be reviewed through a web site maintained by the SEC. The address of the SEC’s web site is sec.gov.

Information about the basket index stock issuers may also be obtained from other sources such as press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly available documents.

We do not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any materials referred to above, including any filings made by the basket index stock issuers with the SEC.

We Obtained the Information About the Basket Index Stock Issuers From the Basket Index Stock Issuers’ Public Filings

This pricing supplement relates only to your note and does not relate to the basket index stocks or other securities of the basket index stock issuers. We have derived all information about the basket index stock issuers in this pricing supplement from the publicly available information referred to in the preceding subsection. We have not participated in the preparation of any of those documents or made any “due diligence” investigation or inquiry with respect to the basket index stock issuers in connection with the offering of your note. Furthermore, we do not know whether all events occurring before the date of this pricing supplement — including events that would affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly available documents referred to above and the trading price of shares of the basket index stocks — have been publicly disclosed. Subsequent disclosure of any events of this kind or the disclosure of or failure to disclose material future events concerning the basket index stock issuers could affect the value you will receive at maturity and, therefore, the market value of your note.

Neither we nor any of our affiliates make any representation to you as to the performance of the basket index stocks.

We or any of our affiliates may currently or from time to time engage in business with the basket index stock issuers, including making loans to or equity investments in the basket index stock issuers or providing advisory services to the basket index stock issuers, including merger and acquisition advisory services. In the course of that business, we or any of our affiliates may acquire non-public information about the basket index stock issuers and, in addition, one or more of our affiliates may publish research reports about the basket index stock issuers. As an investor in a note, you should undertake such independent investigation of the basket index stock issuers as in your judgment is appropriate to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in a note.

Historical Closing Levels of the Basket Underliers

 

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

You should not take the historical levels of the basket or the basket underliers as an indication of the future performances of the basket underliers, including because of recent volatility described above. We cannot give you any assurance that the future performance of the basket, basket underliers or the basket underlier stocks will result in you receiving an amount greater than the outstanding face amount of your notes on the stated maturity date.

Neither we nor any of our affiliates make any representation to you as to the performance of the basket or the basket underliers. Before investing in the offered notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the level of the basket underliers between the date of this pricing supplement and the date of your purchase of the offered notes and, given the recent volatility described above, you should pay particular attention to recent levels of the basket underliers. The actual performance of the basket and the basket underliers over the life of the offered notes, as well as the amount payable on your notes, may bear little relation to the historical levels shown below.

The graphs below, except where otherwise indicated, show the daily historical closing levels of each basket underlier from January 1, 2019 through June 24, 2024, adjusted for corporate events, if applicable. As a result, the following graphs do not reflect the global financial crisis which began in 2008, which had a materially negative impact on the price of most equity securities and, as a result, the level of most equity ETFs. We obtained the levels in the graphs below from Bloomberg Financial Services, without independent verification.

Historical Basket Levels

The following graph is based on the basket closing level for the period from February 2, 2022 through June 24, 2024 assuming that the basket closing level was 100 on February 2, 2022. We derived the basket closing levels based on the method to calculate the basket closing level as described in this pricing supplement and on actual closing levels of the relevant basket underliers on the relevant date. The basket closing level has been normalized such that its hypothetical level on February 2, 2022 was 100. As noted in this pricing supplement, the initial basket level will be set at 100 on the trade date. The basket closing level can increase or decrease due to changes in the levels of the basket underliers. The hypothetical closing levels of the basket begin at February 2, 2022 because one of the basket underliers, Constellation Energy Corporation, has available historical data only from February 2, 2022.

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 the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes that will be required under the terms of the notes, 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:

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 notes 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 notes 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 notes, 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 notes as a capital asset for tax purposes. You are a United States holder if you are a beneficial owner of a note and you are:

---

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

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

We will not attempt to ascertain whether any of the basket index stock issuers would be treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”), within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Internal Revenue Code. If any of the basket index stock issuers were so treated, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could possibly apply to a United States holder. You should refer to information filed with the SEC with respect to the basket index stock issuers and consult your tax advisor regarding the possible consequences to you, if any, if any of the basket index stock issuers is or becomes a PFIC.

In addition, the constructive ownership rules of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code could possibly apply to all or a portion of your notes. If all or a portion of your notes were subject to the constructive ownership rules, then all or a portion of any long-term capital gain that you realize upon the sale, exchange, redemption or maturity of your notes would be re-characterized as ordinary income (and you would be subject to an interest charge on deferred tax liability with respect to such re-characterized capital gain) to the extent that such capital gain exceeds the amount of “net underlying long-term capital gain” (as defined in Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code). Because the application of the constructive ownership rules is unclear you are strongly urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the possible application of the constructive ownership rules to your investment in the notes.

 

No statutory, judicial or administrative authority directly discusses how your notes 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 notes 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 notes 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 notes 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 notes 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 notes 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 notes — and then determining a payment schedule as of the applicable original 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 notes 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 notes would be treated as ordinary interest income. Any loss you

---

recognize at that time would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent of interest you included as income in the current or previous taxable years in respect of your notes, and, thereafter, as capital loss.

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

It is also possible that your notes 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 notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

It is possible that the Internal Revenue Service could seek to characterize your notes 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 possible alternative characterizations of your notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Possible Change in Law

In 2007, legislation was introduced in Congress that, if enacted, would have required holders that acquired instruments such as your notes 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 notes.

In addition, 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 notes including whether the 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 notes 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 the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes in accordance with the treatment described above unless and until such time as Congress, the Treasury Department or the Internal Revenue Service determine that some other treatment is more appropriate.

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 notes that were 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 notes.

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 the notes and are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

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

---

notes and, notwithstanding that we do not intend to treat the notes as debt for tax purposes, we intend to backup withhold on such payments with respect to your notes 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 notes 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 notes to be subject to withholding, even if you comply with certification requirements as to your foreign status.

As discussed above, alternative characterizations of the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes are possible. Should an alternative characterization of the notes, by reason of a change or clarification of the law, by regulation or otherwise, cause payments with respect to the notes 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 the notes should consult their tax advisors in this regard.

We will not attempt to ascertain whether any of the basket index stock issuers would be treated as a “United States real property holding corporation” (“USRPHC”), within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code. If any of the basket index stock issuers were so treated, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could possibly apply to a non-United States holder. You should refer to information filed with the SEC with respect to the basket index stock issuers and consult your tax advisor regarding the possible consequences to you, if any, if any of the basket index stock issuers is or becomes a USRPHC.

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 notes, could be collected via withholding. If these regulations were to apply to the notes, we may be required to withhold such taxes if any U.S.-source dividends are paid on any of the basket index stocks or on the basket fund during the term of the notes. We could also require you to make certifications (e.g., an applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8) prior to the maturity of the notes 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 notes, your notes 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 notes 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 notes will generally be subject to the FATCA withholding rules.

Supplemental plan of distribution; conflicts of interest

See “Supplemental Plan of Distribution” on page S-51 of the accompanying general terms supplement no. 8,999 and “Plan of Distribution — Conflicts of Interest” on page 127 of the accompanying prospectus. GS Finance Corp. estimates that its share of the total offering expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $ .

GS Finance Corp. will sell to GS&Co., and GS&Co. will purchase from GS Finance Corp., the aggregate face amount of the offered notes specified on the front cover of this pricing supplement. GS&Co. proposes initially to offer the notes to the public at the original issue price set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement, and to certain securities dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of 1.5% of the face amount. Accounts of certain national banks, acting as purchase agents for such accounts, have agreed with the purchase agents to pay a purchase price of % of the face amount, and as a result of such agreements, the agents with respect to sales to be made to such accounts will not receive any portion of the underwriting discount set forth on the front cover page of this pricing supplement from GS&Co. GS&Co. is an affiliate of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and, as such, will have a “conflict of interest” in this offering of notes within the meaning of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) Rule 5121. Consequently, this offering of notes will be conducted in compliance with the provisions of FINRA Rule 5121. GS&Co. will not be permitted to sell notes in this offering to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the account holder. We have been advised that GS&Co. will also pay a fee to iCapital Markets LLC, a broker-dealer in which an affiliate of GS Finance Corp. holds an indirect minority equity interest, for services it is providing in connection with this offering.

We expect to deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on July 3, 2024. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to one business day before delivery will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

We have been advised by GS&Co. that it intends to make a market in the notes. However, neither GS&Co. nor any of our other affiliates that makes a market is obligated to do so and any of them may stop doing so at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity or trading market for the notes.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system.
