| ![](gcjmw0kxylvt000001.jpg) | **GS Finance Corp.**<br> $ Barrier Absolute Return Market-Linked Notes (With Daily Barrier Observation) Linked to the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index due<br> guaranteed by<br> **The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.** |

---

**The notes do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your notes on the stated maturity date (expected to be March 31, 2025) is based on the performance of the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index as measured from and including the trade date (expected to be March 28, 2023) to and including the determination date (expected to be March 26, 2025), unless a barrier event has occurred.**

A barrier event will occur if, on any day during the observation period, which is the period from but excluding the trade date to and including the determination date, the closing level of the index increases above the upper barrier or decreases below the lower barrier. The upper barrier is equal to the initial index level plus between 27.60% and 30.60% (set on the trade date) of the initial index level and the lower barrier is equal to the initial index level minus 20.00% of the initial index level. As a result, the maximum return on your notes will be between 27.60% and 30.60%. The initial index level will be set on the trade date.

<u>If a barrier event has occurred at any time during the observation period</u>, the return on your notes will be positive and at maturity you will receive $1,050 for each $1,000 face amount of your notes (representing a return of 5.00%), <u>regardless of the final index level</u> (which is the closing index level on the determination date). **A barrier event may occur at any point during the observation period; however, you will not receive $1,050 per $1,000 face amount on your note until maturity and you will receive such amount regardless of the final index level.**

<u>If a barrier event has not occurred</u>, the return on your notes will be positive and for each $1,000 face amount of your notes you will receive the *greater of* (i) $1,050 and (ii) the $1,000 face amount *plus* the *product of* $1,000 *times* the absolute value of the index return, which is the increase or decrease in the final index level from the initial index level. For example, if the index return is either -10.00% or +10.00%, your return will be +10.00%.

At maturity, for each $1,000 face amount, (i) if a barrier event has occurred you will receive $1,050 and (ii) if a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred, you will receive the *greater* of (a) $1,050 and (b) the sum of (1) $1,000 *plus* (2) $1,000 *times* the absolute value of the index return (not less than $1,050 and not more than between $1,276.00 and $1,306.00). **If the increase in the final index level from the initial index level exceeds between 27.60% and 30.60% or the decrease in the final index level from the initial index level exceeds 20.00%, you will only receive $1,050.**

**A purchaser of these notes in the secondary market should determine if a barrier event has already occurred. The occurrence of a barrier event could significantly affect both the secondary market trading price of these notes or the amount that a holder of the notes will receive at maturity. See page S-4.**

At maturity, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes you will receive an amount in cash equal to:

• <u>if a barrier event has not occurred</u>, the *greater of* (i) $1,050 and (ii) the *sum of* (a) $1,000 *plus* (b) the *product of* $1,000 *times* the absolute value of the index return, which sum will be no more than $1,276.00 and $1,306.00; or

• <u>if a barrier event has occurred</u>, $1,050.

***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 S-11.***

*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 $935 and $965 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.*

Prospectus Supplement No. dated &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; , 2023.

------

The issue price, underwriting discount and net proceeds listed above relate to the notes we sell initially. We may decide to sell additional notes after the date of this prospectus supplement, at issue prices and with underwriting discounts and net proceeds that differ from the amounts set forth above. The return (whether positive or negative) on your investment in notes will depend in part on the issue price you pay for such notes.

GS Finance Corp. may use this prospectus in the initial sale of the offered notes. In addition, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any other affiliate of GS Finance Corp. may use this prospectus in a market-making transaction in a note after its initial sale. **Unless GS Finance Corp. or its agent informs the purchaser otherwise in the confirmation of sale, this prospectus is being used in a market-making transaction.**

**Estimated Value of Your Notes**<br> *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 Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (GS&Co.) and taking into account our credit spreads) is expected to be between $935 and $965 per $1,000 face amount, which is less than the original issue price. The value of your notes at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted; however, the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would initially buy or sell notes (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) and the value that GS&Co. will initially use for account statements and otherwise is equal to approximately the estimated value of your notes at the time of pricing, plus an additional amount (initially equal to $ per $1,000 face amount).*<br> *Prior to , the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your notes (if it makes a market, which it is not obligated to do) will equal approximately the sum of (a) the then-current estimated value of your notes (as determined by reference to GS&Co.'s pricing models) plus (b) any remaining additional amount (the additional amount will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over a 91 day period from the time of pricing). On and after , the price (not including GS&Co.'s customary bid and ask spreads) at which GS&Co. would buy or sell your notes (if it makes a market) will equal approximately the then-current estimated value of your notes determined by reference to such pricing models.*<br>

**About Your Prospectus**<br> The notes are part of the Medium-Term Notes, Series F program of GS Finance Corp. and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

#### SUMMARY INFORMATION
*We refer to the notes we are offering by this prospectus supplement as the "offered notes" or the "notes". Each of the offered notes has the terms described below and under "Specific Terms of Your Notes" on page S-19. Please note that in this prospectus supplement, references to "GS Finance Corp.", "we", "our" and "us" mean only GS Finance Corp. and do not include its subsidiaries or affiliates, references to "The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.", our parent company, mean only The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and do not include its subsidiaries or affiliates and references to "Goldman Sachs" mean The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates, including us. Also, references to the "accompanying prospectus" mean the accompanying prospectus, dated February 13, 2023, references to the "accompanying prospectus supplement" mean the accompanying prospectus supplement, dated February 13, 2023, for Medium-Term Notes, Series F, and references to the "accompanying underlier supplement no. 33" mean the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33 dated February 23, 2023, in each case of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. References to the "indenture" in this prospectus supplement mean the senior debt indenture, dated as of October 10, 2008, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 20, 2015, each among us, as issuer, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., as guarantor, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee. This indenture, as so supplemented and as further supplemented thereafter, is referred to as the "GSFC 2008 indenture" in the accompanying prospectus supplement.*<br>

#### Investment Thesis
The notes are designed for investors who:

• believe that a barrier event (described below) will not occur and that the underlying index return or absolute value of the underlying index return will be greater than 5.00%;

• want limited exposure to the greater of (i) between 5.00% and (ii) the absolute value of the underlying index return, assuming a barrier event does not occur;

• are willing to forgo exposure to such underlying index return or absolute value of the underlying index return if a barrier event occurs and in that case are willing to receive a contingent return of 5.00% instead; and

• are willing to accept that, if a barrier event has not occurred, the return on the notes will be limited to 5.00%, on the lower end of the range, and between 27.60% and 30.60%, on the higher end of the range, and, if a barrier event has occurred, the return on the notes will be limited to 5.00%.

A barrier event will occur if, on any day during the observation period, the closing level of the underlying index (i) declines below the lower barrier of the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level or (ii) increases above the upper barrier of the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the initial underlying index level.

#### Key Terms

#### Issuer: GS Finance Corp.

#### Guarantor: The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

#### Underlying index: the S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index (Bloomberg symbol, "SPX Index"), as published by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC ("S&P"); see "The Underlying Index" on page S-26

#### Specified currency: U.S. dollars ("$")
**Face amount: each note will have a face amount of $1,000; $ in the aggregate for all the offered notes; the aggregate face amount of the offered notes may be increased if the issuer, at its sole option, decides to sell an additional amount of the offered notes on a date subsequent to the date of this prospectus supplement**

#### Denominations: $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof
**Supplemental plan of distribution: GS Finance Corp. will sell to Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC ("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 prospectus 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 prospectus supplement, and to UBS Financial Services Inc. at such price less a concession not in excess of 2.00% of the face amount. See "Supplemental Plan of Distribution" on page S-33**

#### Cash settlement amount: on the stated maturity date, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes you will receive an amount in cash equal to:
• if a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred, the *greater* of (i) $1,050 and (ii) the sum of (a) $1,000 *plus* (b) the *product* of $1,000 *times* the absolute value of the underlying index return; or

• if a barrier event <u>has</u> occurred, the *sum* of (i) $1,000 *plus* (ii) the *product* of $1,000 *times* the contingent return.

**Purchase at amount other than face amount: the amount we will pay you at the stated maturity date for your notes will not be adjusted based on the issue price you pay for your notes, so if you acquire notes at a premium (or discount) to face amount and hold them to the stated maturity date, it could affect your investment in a number of ways. The return on your investment in such notes will be lower (or higher) than it would have been had you purchased the notes at face amount. See "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — 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"**

#### Trade date: expected to be March 28, 2023

**Final underlying index level: the closing level of the underlying index on the determination date, except in the limited circumstances described under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Payment of Principal on Stated Maturity Date — Consequences of a Market Disruption Event or a Non-Trading Day" on page S-21 and subject to adjustment as provided under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Payment of Principal on Stated Maturity Date — Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" on page S-21**

#### Underlying index return: the quotient of (i) the final underlying index level minus the initial underlying index level divided by (ii) the initial underlying index level, expressed as a percentage

#### Contingent return: 5.00%

#### Closing level: as described under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Special Calculation Provisions — Closing Level" on page S-23

**Barrier event: on any trading day during the observation period, (i) the closing level of the underlying index is below the lower barrier or (ii) the closing level of the underlying index is above the upper barrier.** 

------

#### Lower barrier: the initial underlying index level minus 20.00% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth)
**Upper barrier (set on the trade date): the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth)**

**Stated maturity date (set on the trade date): expected to be March 31, 2025, subject to adjustment as described under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Stated Maturity Date" on page S-21**

**Determination date (set on the trade date): expected to be March 26, 2025, subject to adjustment as described under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Determination Date" on page S-21**

**Considerations for Secondary Market Purchasers: A purchaser of these notes in the secondary market should determine if a barrier event has already occurred. The occurrence of a barrier event could affect both the secondary market trading price of these notes after a secondary market purchase or the amount a secondary market purchaser will receive at maturity. In order to determine if a barrier event has occurred, you should determine if, on any date from the day after the trade date to the date of your purchase, the closing level of the underlying index was less than the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth) or the closing level of the underlying index was greater than the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth). Certain financial websites make index levels publicly available, which can be helpful when determining whether a barrier event may have occurred. If you would like assistance in determining whether a barrier event has occurred, please call GS&Co. at (212) 902-0300.**

**HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLES**

#### (Hypothetical terms only. Actual terms may vary.)
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 are intended merely to illustrate the impact that the various hypothetical underlying index levels during the observation period, including on the determination date, could have on the cash settlement amount at maturity assuming all other variables remain constant.

The examples below are based on a range of underlying index levels that are entirely hypothetical; no one can predict what the underlying index level will be on any day during the observation period, and no one can predict what the final underlying index level will be on the determination date. The underlying index has been highly volatile in the past — meaning that the underlying index level has changed considerably in relatively short periods — and its performance 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 stated maturity date. If you sell your notes in a secondary market prior to the stated maturity date, 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 underlying index, 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 S-11 of this prospectus supplement. The information in the examples also reflects the key terms and assumptions in the box below. The actual terms will be set on the trade date.

| Contingent return | 5.00% |
| Neither a market disruption event nor a non-trading day occurs on any day during the observation period, including on the originally scheduled determination date | Neither a market disruption event nor a non-trading day occurs on any day during the observation period, including on the originally scheduled determination date |

---

Moreover, we have not yet set the initial underlying index level that will serve as the baseline for determining the underlying index return, the lower barrier, the upper barrier and the amount that we will pay on your notes at maturity. We will not do so until the trade date. As a result, the actual initial underlying index level may differ substantially from the underlying index level prior to the trade date.

For these reasons, the actual performance of the underlying index over the life of your notes, as well as the amount payable at maturity, may bear little relation to the hypothetical examples shown below or to the historical underlying index levels shown elsewhere in this prospectus supplement. For information about the historical levels of the underlying index during recent periods, see "The Underlying Index — Historical Closing Levels of the Underlying Index" below. Before investing in the offered notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the levels of the underlying index between the date of this prospectus 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 underlying index stocks.

------

The levels in the left column of the table below represent hypothetical final underlying index levels and are expressed as percentages of the initial underlying index level. The amounts in the middle column represent the hypothetical cash settlement amounts, based on the corresponding hypothetical final underlying index level, assuming that **a barrier event does not occur** (i.e., the closing level of the underlying index has not decreased below the lower barrier or increased above the upper barrier on any trading day during the observation period), and are expressed as percentages of the face amount of a note (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of a percent). The amounts in the right column represent the hypothetical cash settlement amounts, based on the corresponding hypothetical final underlying index level, assuming that **a barrier event occurs** (i.e., the closing level of the underlying index has decreased below the lower barrier or has increased above the upper barrier on one or more trading days during the observation period), 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 underlying index level and the assumptions noted above.

If, for example, **a barrier event has occurred** and the final underlying index level were determined to be 200.000% of the initial underlying index level, the cash settlement amount that we would deliver on your notes at maturity would be 105.000% of the face amount of your notes, as shown in the table above. Additionally, if the final underlying index level were determined to be 50.000% of the initial underlying index level, the cash settlement amount that we would deliver on your notes at maturity would be 105.000% of the face amount of your notes, as shown in the table above.

If, for example, **a barrier event has not occurred** and the final underlying index level were determined to be 90.000% of the initial underlying index level, the absolute value of the underlying index return would be 10.000% and the cash settlement amount that we would deliver on your notes at maturity would be 110.000% of the face amount of your notes, as shown in the table above. However, you will benefit from the absolute value of the underlying index return only if a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred. Because a barrier event will occur if, on any trading day during the observation period (<u>including the determination date</u>), the closing level of the underlying index is below the lower barrier (the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level,

------

rounded to the nearest one-hundredth) or above the upper barrier (the initial underlying index level *plus* 27.60% of the initial underlying index level, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth), the cash settlement amount that we will deliver at maturity if a barrier event has not occurred will be limited to between 105.000% and 127.600% (representing a return of between 5.000% and 27.600%) of the face amount. As a result, you would not benefit from a final underlying index level on the determination date (or a closing level of the underlying index on any other trading day during the observation period) that is above the upper barrier or below the lower barrier. In fact, a final underlying index level on the determination date (or a closing level of the underlying index on any other trading day during the observation period) that is above the upper barrier or below the lower barrier will cause the cash settlement amount that we will deliver at maturity to be limited to 105.000% (representing a contingent return of 5.000%) of the face amount.

The following chart also shows a graphical illustration of the hypothetical cash settlement amounts (expressed as a percentage of the face amount of your notes) that we would pay on your notes on the stated maturity date, if the final underlying index level were any of the hypothetical levels shown on the horizontal axis. The chart shows that, if a barrier event occurs at any time during the observation period, any hypothetical final underlying index level would result in a hypothetical payment amount of 105.000% of the face amount of the note (the horizontal line that crosses the 105.000% marker on the vertical axis). The chart also shows that, if a barrier event does not occur at any time during the observation period, any hypothetical final underlying index level between 80.000% and 127.600% (the section between the 80.000% and 127.600% markers on the horizontal axis) would result in a hypothetical payment amount that is greater than or equal to 105.000%, but less than or equal to 127.600%, of the face amount of the note (the section on or above the 105.000% marker on the vertical axis but on or below the 127.600% marker on the vertical axis).

The cash settlement amounts shown above are entirely hypothetical; they are based on market prices for the underlying index stocks that may not be achieved on the determination date 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 cash settlement 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 cash settlement 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 S-14.

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 a bond bought by the holder and one or more options entered into between the holder and us. Therefore, the terms of the notes may be impacted by the various factors mentioned under "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes — The Market Value of Your Notes May Be Influenced by Many Unpredictable Factors" on page S-14. 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 prospectus supplement.

------

*We cannot predict the actual final underlying index level or what the market value of your notes will be on any particular trading day, nor can we predict the relationship between the underlying index level and the market value of your notes at any time prior to the stated maturity date. The actual amount that you will receive at maturity and the rate of return on the offered notes will depend on the actual initial underlying index level and the upper barrier, which we will set on the trade date, and the actual closing levels of the underlying index during the observation period and the actual final underlying index level 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 on the stated maturity date may be very different from the information reflected in the examples above.*<br>

**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 Securities" in the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33. 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 underlier supplement no. 33. Your notes are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, your notes are not equivalent to investing directly in the underlying index stocks, i.e., the stocks comprising the underlying index to which your notes are linked. You should carefully consider whether the offered notes are appropriate given your particular circumstances.*<br>

#### 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 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 "— Your Notes May Not Have an Active Trading Market" below.

#### 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 underlying index, 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 Potential for the Value of Your Notes to Increase Will Be Limited
If a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred, the cash settlement amount at maturity for each $1,000 face amount of your notes will be limited to $1,050.00, on the lower end of the range, and between $1,276.00 and $1,306.00, on the higher end of the range (representing a return of 5.00%, on the lower end of the range, and between 27.60% and 30.60%, on the higher end of the range), depending on the absolute value of the underlying index return. If a barrier event has occurred, the cash settlement amount at maturity for each $1,000 face amount of your notes will be limited to $1,050 (representing the contingent return of 5.00%), regardless of the underlying index return.

You will benefit from the absolute value of the underlying index return only if a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred. Because a barrier event will occur if, on any trading day during the observation period (<u>including the determination date</u>), the closing level of the underlying index is below the lower barrier (the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth) or above the upper barrier (the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the initial underlying index level, rounded to the nearest one-hundredth), the cash settlement amount that we will deliver at maturity if a barrier event has not occurred will be limited to $1,050.00, on the lower end of the range, and between $1,276.00 and $1,306.00, on the higher end of the range (representing a return of 5.00%, on the lower end of the range, and between 27.60% and 30.60%, on the higher end of the range) for each $1,000 face amount. As a result, you would not benefit from a final underlying index level on the determination date (or a closing level of the underlying index on any other trading day during the observation period) that is above the upper barrier or below the lower barrier. In fact, a final underlying index level on the determination date (or a closing level of the underlying index on any other trading day during the observation period) that is above the upper barrier or below the lower barrier will cause the cash settlement amount that we will deliver at maturity to be limited to 105.00% (representing a contingent return of 5.00%) for each $1,000 face amount.

**A Lower Lower Barrier and a Higher Upper Barrier May Reflect Greater Expected Volatility of the Underlying Index, and Greater Expected Volatility Generally Indicates An Increased Risk of Declines or Increases in the Level of the Underlying Index and, Potentially, a Return Limited to the Contingent Return at Maturity**

The economic terms for the notes, including the lower barrier and the upper barrier, are based, in part, on the expected volatility of the underlying index at the time the terms of the notes are set. "Volatility" refers to the frequency and magnitude of changes in the level of the underlying index.

Higher expected volatility with respect to the underlying index as of the trade date generally indicates a greater expectation as of that date that the closing level of the underlying index could ultimately be less than the lower barrier or greater than the upper barrier on any day during the observation period, which would result in a return limited to the contingent return on your investment in the notes. At the time the terms of the notes are set, higher expected volatility will generally be reflected in a lower lower barrier or a higher upper barrier, as compared to

------

otherwise comparable notes issued by the same issuer with the same maturity but with a different underlying index. **However, there is no guarantee that the lower lower barrier or the higher upper barrier set for your notes on the trade date will adequately compensate you, from a risk-potential reward perspective, for the greater risk of receiving a return limited to the contingent return on your investment in the notes.**

A relatively lower lower barrier or a relatively higher upper barrier (as compared to otherwise comparable securities), which would increase the potential risk of receiving a return limited to the contingent return on your investment in the notes, may generally indicate an increased risk that the level of the underlying index will increase or decrease substantially. This would result in a return limited to the contingent return on your investment in the notes if the closing level of the underlying index is less than the lower barrier or greater than the upper barrier on any day during the observation period. Further, a relatively lower lower barrier or a relatively higher upper barrier may not indicate that the notes have a greater likelihood of a return greater than the contingent return based on the performance of the underlying index.

**You should not take the historical volatility of the underlying index as an indication of its future volatility. You should be willing to accept the downside or upside market risk of the underlying index and the potential to receive a return limited to the contingent return on your investment in the notes at maturity.**

#### The Return on Your Notes May Change Significantly Despite Only a Small Change in the Underlying Index Level
Your ability to participate in any change in the level of the underlying index over the life of your notes will be limited and the return on your notes may change significantly despite only a small change in the underlying index level. If a barrier event occurs and the final underlying index level is greater than the initial underlying index level, your return on the notes is limited to the contingent return no matter how much the final underlying index level may increase above the initial underlying index level. This means that, assuming an upper barrier of the initial underlying index level *plus* 27.60% of the initial underlying index level, while an increase in the level of the index of 27.60% will not cause a barrier event to occur, an increase of greater than 27.60% will cause a barrier event to occur and your return on the notes will be limited to the contingent return. Accordingly, if a barrier event occurs and the underlying index return is positive, the amount payable for each of your notes may be significantly less than it would have been had you invested directly in the underlying index stocks.

Similarly, if a barrier event occurs and the final underlying index level is less than the initial underlying index level, your return will be limited to the contingent return and you will not receive the benefit of the absolute value of the underlying index return. This means that, while a decrease in the level of the underlying index of 20.00% will not cause a barrier event to occur, a decrease of greater than 20.00% will cause a barrier event to occur and your return on the notes will be limited to the contingent return. Accordingly, if a barrier event occurs and the underlying index return is negative, you will not receive the benefit of the absolute value of the underlying index return.

#### 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 each of your notes on the stated maturity date 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.

#### 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 prospectus 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 prospectus 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 cash settlement amount you will be paid for your notes on 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 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 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.

#### 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 and are able to sell them in the open market before the stated maturity date. A number of factors, many of which are beyond our control and impact the value of bonds and options generally, will influence the market value of your notes, including:

• whether a barrier event has occurred;

• the level of the underlying index;

• the volatility — i.e., the frequency and magnitude of changes — in the level of the underlying index;

• the dividend rates of the underlying index stocks;

• economic, financial, regulatory, political, military, public health and other events that affect stock markets generally and the underlying index stocks, and which may affect the level of the underlying index;

• interest rates and yield rates in the market;

• the time remaining until your notes mature; and

• our creditworthiness and the creditworthiness of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., whether actual or perceived, including actual or anticipated upgrades or downgrades in our credit ratings or the credit ratings of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or changes in other credit measures.

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 will influence the price you will receive 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 before maturity, you may receive less than the face amount of your notes.

You cannot predict the future levels of the underlying index based on its historical fluctuations. The actual level of the underlying index over the life of the notes may bear little or no relation to the historical closing level of the underlying index or to the hypothetical examples shown elsewhere in this prospectus supplement.

#### You Have No Shareholder Rights or Rights to Receive Any Underlying Index Stock
Investing in your notes will not make you a holder of any of the underlying index stocks. Neither you nor any other holder or owner of your notes will have any rights with respect to the underlying index stocks, including any voting rights, any right to receive dividends or other distributions, any rights to make a claim against the underlying index stocks or any other rights of a holder of the underlying index stocks. Your notes will be paid in cash and you will have no right to receive delivery of any underlying index stocks.

#### Your Notes May Not Have an Active Trading Market
Your notes will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or included in any interdealer market quotation system, and there may be little or no secondary market for your notes. Even if a secondary market for your notes develops, it may not provide significant liquidity and we expect that transaction costs in any secondary market would be high. As a result, the difference between bid and asked prices for your notes in any secondary market could be substantial.

**As Calculation Agent, GS&Co. Will Have the Authority to Make Determinations that Could Affect the Value of Your Notes, When Your Notes Mature and the Amount You Receive at Maturity**

As calculation agent for your notes, GS&Co. will have discretion in making various determinations that affect your notes, including determining the final underlying index level on the determination date and whether a barrier event has occurred, which we will use to determine the amount we must pay on the stated maturity date; determining whether to exclude a trading day during the observation period due to a market disruption event; determining whether to postpone the determination date because of a market disruption event or a non-trading day; the stated maturity date; the default amount and any amount payable on your notes. See "Specific Terms of Your Notes" below. The calculation agent also has discretion in making certain adjustments relating to a discontinuation or

------

modification of the underlying index. See "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" below. The exercise of this discretion by GS&Co. could adversely affect the value of your notes and may present GS&Co. with a conflict of interest. We may change the calculation agent at any time without notice and GS&Co. may resign as calculation agent at any time upon 60 days' written notice to us.

#### The Calculation Agent Can Postpone the Determination Date If a Market Disruption Event or a Non-Trading Day Occurs or is Continuing
If the calculation agent determines that, on the date that would otherwise be the determination date, a market disruption event has occurred or is continuing or if such date is not a trading day, the determination date will be postponed until the first following trading day on which no market disruption event occurs or is continuing. In no event, however, will such 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. Moreover, if the determination date is postponed to the last possible day, but a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on that day or that day is not a trading day, that day will nevertheless be the determination date.

If the calculation agent determines that the closing level of the underlying index that must be used to determine the cash settlement amount is not available on the determination date, either because of a market disruption event, a non-trading day or for any other reason (other than as described under "Specific Terms of Your Notes — Payment of Principal on the Stated Maturity Date — Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" below), the calculation agent will nevertheless determine the final underlying index level based on its assessment, made in its sole discretion, of the level of the underlying index at the applicable time on that day.

#### Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest
**Hedging Activities by Goldman Sachs or Our Distributors May Negatively Impact Investors in the Notes and Cause Our Interests and Those of Our Clients and Counterparties to be Contrary to Those of Investors in the Notes**

Goldman Sachs has hedged or expects to hedge our obligations under the notes by purchasing listed or over-the-counter options, futures and/or other instruments linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks. Goldman Sachs also expects to adjust the hedge by, among other things, purchasing or selling any of the foregoing, and perhaps other instruments linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks, at any time and from time to time, and to unwind the hedge by selling any of the foregoing on or before the determination date for your notes. Alternatively, Goldman Sachs may hedge all or part of our obligations under the notes with unaffiliated distributors of the notes which we expect will undertake similar market activity. Goldman Sachs may also enter into, adjust and unwind hedging transactions relating to other index-linked notes whose returns are linked to changes in the level of the underlying index or the underlying index stocks, as applicable.

In addition to entering into such transactions itself, or distributors entering into such transactions, Goldman Sachs may structure such transactions for its clients or counterparties, or otherwise advise or assist clients or counterparties in entering into such transactions. These activities may be undertaken to achieve a variety of objectives, including: permitting other purchasers of the notes or other securities to hedge their investment in whole or in part; facilitating transactions for other clients or counterparties that may have business objectives or investment strategies that are inconsistent with or contrary to those of investors in the notes; hedging the exposure of Goldman Sachs to the notes including any interest in the notes that it reacquires or retains as part of the offering process, through its market-making activities or otherwise; enabling Goldman Sachs to comply with its internal risk limits or otherwise manage firmwide, business unit or product risk; and/or enabling Goldman Sachs to take directional views as to relevant markets on behalf of itself or its clients or counterparties that are inconsistent with or contrary to the views and objectives of the investors in the notes.

Any of these hedging or other activities may adversely affect the level of the underlying index — directly or indirectly by affecting the price of the underlying index stocks — and therefore the market value of your notes and the amount we will pay on your notes at maturity. In addition, you should expect that these transactions will cause Goldman Sachs or its clients, counterparties or distributors to have economic interests and incentives that do not align with, and that may be directly contrary to, those of an investor in the notes. Neither Goldman Sachs nor any distributor will have any obligation to take, refrain from taking or cease taking any action with respect to these transactions based on the potential effect on an investor in the notes, and may receive substantial returns on hedging or other activities while the value of your notes declines. In addition, if the distributor from which you purchase notes is to conduct hedging activities in connection with the notes, that distributor may otherwise profit

------

in connection with such hedging activities and such profit, if any, will be in addition to the compensation that the distributor receives for the sale of the notes to you. You should be aware that the potential to earn fees in connection with hedging activities may create a further incentive for the distributor to sell the notes to you in addition to the compensation they would receive for the sale of the notes.

#### Goldman Sachs' Trading and Investment Activities for its Own Account or for its Clients, Could Negatively Impact Investors in the Notes
Goldman Sachs is a global investment banking, securities and investment management firm that provides a wide range of financial services to a substantial and diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and individuals. As such, it acts as an investor, investment banker, research provider, investment manager, investment advisor, market maker, trader, prime broker and lender. In those and other capacities, Goldman Sachs purchases, sells or holds a broad array of investments, actively trades securities, derivatives, loans, commodities, currencies, credit default swaps, indices, baskets and other financial instruments and products for its own account or for the accounts of its customers, and will have other direct or indirect interests, in the global fixed income, currency, commodity, equity, bank loan and other markets. Any of Goldman Sachs' financial market activities may, individually or in the aggregate, have an adverse effect on the market for your notes, and you should expect that the interests of Goldman Sachs or its clients or counterparties will at times be adverse to those of investors in the notes.

Goldman Sachs regularly offers a wide array of securities, financial instruments and other products into the marketplace, including existing or new products that are similar to your notes, or similar or linked to the underlying index or underlying index stocks. Investors in the notes should expect that Goldman Sachs will offer securities, financial instruments, and other products that will compete with the notes for liquidity, research coverage or otherwise.

#### Goldman Sachs' Market-Making Activities Could Negatively Impact Investors in the Notes
Goldman Sachs actively makes markets in and trades financial instruments for its own account and for the accounts of customers. These financial instruments include debt and equity securities, currencies, commodities, bank loans, indices, baskets and other products. Goldman Sachs' activities include, among other things, executing large block trades and taking long and short positions directly and indirectly, through derivative instruments or otherwise. The securities and instruments in which Goldman Sachs takes positions, or expects to take positions, include securities and instruments of the underlying index or underlying index stocks, securities and instruments similar to or linked to the foregoing or the currencies in which they are denominated. Market making is an activity where Goldman Sachs buys and sells on behalf of customers, or for its own account, to satisfy the expected demand of customers. By its nature, market making involves facilitating transactions among market participants that have differing views of securities and instruments. As a result, you should expect that Goldman Sachs will take positions that are inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of investors in the notes.

If Goldman Sachs becomes a holder of any securities of the underlying index or underlying index stocks in its capacity as a market-maker or otherwise, any actions that it takes in its capacity as securityholder, including voting or provision of consents, will not necessarily be aligned with, and may be inconsistent with, the interests of investors in the notes.

**You Should Expect That Goldman Sachs Personnel Will Take Research Positions, or Otherwise Make Recommendations, Provide Investment Advice or Market Color or Encourage Trading Strategies That Might Negatively Impact Investors in the Notes**

Goldman Sachs and its personnel, including its sales and trading, investment research and investment management personnel, regularly make investment recommendations, provide market color or trading ideas, or publish or express independent views in respect of a wide range of markets, issuers, securities and instruments. They regularly implement, or recommend to clients that they implement, various investment strategies relating to these markets, issuers, securities and instruments. These strategies include, for example, buying or selling credit protection against a default or other event involving an issuer or financial instrument. Any of these recommendations and views may be negative with respect to the underlying index or underlying index stocks or other securities or instruments similar to or linked to the foregoing or result in trading strategies that have a negative impact on the market for any such securities or instruments, particularly in illiquid markets. In addition, you should expect that personnel in the trading and investing businesses of Goldman Sachs will have or develop

------

independent views of the underlying index or underlying index stocks, the relevant industry or other market trends, which may not be aligned with the views and objectives of investors in the notes.

**Goldman Sachs Regularly Provides Services to, or Otherwise Has Business Relationships with, a Broad Client Base, Which May Include the Sponsor of the Underlying Index or the Issuers of the Underlying Index Stocks or Other Entities That Are Involved in the Transaction**

Goldman Sachs regularly provides financial advisory, investment advisory and transactional services to a substantial and diversified client base, and you should assume that Goldman Sachs will, at present or in the future, provide such services or otherwise engage in transactions with, among others, the sponsor of the underlying index or the issuers of the underlying index stocks, or transact in securities or instruments or with parties that are directly or indirectly related to the foregoing. These services could include making loans to or equity investments in those companies, providing financial advisory or other investment banking services, or issuing research reports. You should expect that Goldman Sachs, in providing such services, engaging in such transactions, or acting for its own account, may take actions that have direct or indirect effects on the underlying index or underlying index stocks, as applicable, and that such actions could be adverse to the interests of investors in the notes. In addition, in connection with these activities, certain Goldman Sachs personnel may have access to confidential material non-public information about these parties that would not be disclosed to Goldman Sachs employees that were not working on such transactions as Goldman Sachs has established internal information barriers that are designed to preserve the confidentiality of non-public information. Therefore, any such confidential material non-public information would not be shared with Goldman Sachs employees involved in structuring, selling or making markets in the notes or with investors in the notes.

In this offering, as well as in all other circumstances in which Goldman Sachs receives any fees or other compensation in any form relating to services provided to or transactions with any other party, no accounting, offset or payment in respect of the notes will be required or made; Goldman Sachs will be entitled to retain all such fees and other amounts, and no fees or other compensation payable by any party or indirectly by holders of the notes will be reduced by reason of receipt by Goldman Sachs of any such other fees or other amounts.

**The Offering of the Notes May Reduce an Existing Exposure of Goldman Sachs or Facilitate a Transaction or Position That Serves the Objectives of Goldman Sachs or Other Parties**

A completed offering may reduce Goldman Sachs' existing exposure to the underlying index or underlying index stocks, securities and instruments similar to or linked to the foregoing or the currencies in which they are denominated, including exposure gained through hedging transactions in anticipation of this offering. An offering of notes will effectively transfer a portion of Goldman Sachs' exposure (and indirectly transfer the exposure of Goldman Sachs' hedging or other counterparties) to investors in the notes.

The terms of the offering (including the selection of the underlying index or underlying index stocks, and the establishment of other transaction terms) may have been selected in order to serve the investment or other objectives of Goldman Sachs or another client or counterparty of Goldman Sachs. In such a case, Goldman Sachs would typically receive the input of other parties that are involved in or otherwise have an interest in the offering, transactions hedged by the offering, or related transactions. The incentives of these other parties would normally differ from and in many cases be contrary to those of investors in the notes.

#### Other Investors in the Notes May Not Have the Same Interests as You
Other investors in the notes are not required to take into account the interests of any other investor in exercising remedies or voting or other rights in their capacity as securityholders or in making requests or recommendations to Goldman Sachs as to the establishment of other transaction terms. The interests of other investors may, in some circumstances, be adverse to your interests. For example, certain investors may take short positions (directly or indirectly through derivative transactions) on assets that are the same or similar to your notes, underlying index, underlying index stocks or other similar securities, which may adversely impact the market for or value of your notes.

#### Risks Related to Tax

#### Certain Considerations for Insurance Companies and Employee Benefit Plans
Any insurance company or fiduciary of a pension plan or other employee benefit plan that is subject to the prohibited transaction rules of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, which we call "ERISA", or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including an IRA or a Keogh plan (or a governmental plan to which similar prohibitions apply), and that is considering purchasing the offered notes with

------

the assets of the insurance company or the assets of such a plan, should consult with its counsel regarding whether the purchase or holding of the offered notes could become a "prohibited transaction" under ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code or any substantially similar prohibition in light of the representations a purchaser or holder in any of the above categories is deemed to make by purchasing and holding the offered notes. This is discussed in more detail under "Employee Retirement Income Security Act" below.

#### Your Notes Will Be Treated as Debt Instruments Subject to Special Rules Governing Contingent Payment Debt Instruments for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes
The notes will be treated as debt instruments subject to special rules governing contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If you are a U.S. individual or taxable entity, you generally will be required to pay taxes on ordinary income from the notes over their term based on the comparable yield for the notes, even though you will not receive any payments from us until maturity. This comparable yield is determined solely to calculate the amount on which you will be taxed prior to maturity and is neither a prediction nor a guarantee of what the actual yield will be. In addition, any gain you may recognize on the sale, exchange, or maturity of the notes will be taxed as ordinary interest income. If you are a secondary purchaser of the notes, the tax consequences to you may be different. Please see "Supplemental Discussion of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" below for a more detailed discussion. 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.

**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.

#### SPECIFIC TERMS OF YOUR NOTES
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br> *We refer to the notes we are offering by this prospectus supplement as the "offered notes" or the "notes". Please note that in this prospectus supplement, references to "GS Finance Corp.", "we", "our" and "us" mean only GS Finance Corp. and do not include its subsidiaries or affiliates, references to "The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.", our parent company, mean only The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and do not include its subsidiaries or affiliates and references to "Goldman Sachs" mean The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates, including us. Also, references to the "accompanying prospectus" mean the accompanying prospectus, dated February 13, 2023, references to the "accompanying prospectus supplement" mean the accompanying prospectus supplement, dated February 13, 2023, for Medium-Term Notes, Series F, and references to the "accompanying underlier supplement no. 33" mean the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33 dated February 23, 2023, in each case of GS Finance Corp. and The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Please note that in this section entitled "Specific Terms of Your Notes", references to "holders" mean those who own notes registered in their own names, on the books that we or the trustee maintain for this purpose, and not those who own beneficial interests in notes registered in street name or in notes issued in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company. Please review the special considerations that apply to owners of beneficial interests in the accompanying prospectus, under "Legal Ownership and Book-Entry Issuance".*<br>

The offered notes are part of a series of debt securities, entitled "Medium-Term Notes, Series F", that we may issue under the indenture from time to time as described in the accompanying prospectus and accompanying prospectus supplement. The offered notes are also "indexed debt securities", as defined in the accompanying prospectus.

This prospectus supplement summarizes specific financial and other terms that apply to the offered notes, including your notes; terms that apply generally to all Series F medium-term notes are described in "Description of Notes We May Offer" in the accompanying prospectus supplement. The terms described here supplement those described in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and, if the terms described here are inconsistent with those described there, the terms described here are controlling.

In addition to those terms described under "Summary Information" in this prospectus supplement, the following terms will apply to your notes:

#### No interest: we will not pay interest on your notes

#### Specified currency:
• U.S. dollars ("$")

#### Form of note:
• global form only: yes, at DTC

• non-global form available: no

**Denominations: each note registered in the name of a holder must have a face amount of $1,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof**

#### Defeasance applies as follows:
• full defeasance: no

• covenant defeasance: no

#### Other terms:
• the default amount will be payable on any acceleration of the maturity of your notes as described under "— Special Calculation Provisions" below

• a business day for your notes will not be the same as a business day for our other Series F medium-term notes, as described under "— Special Calculation Provisions" below

• a trading day for your notes will be as described under "— Special Calculation Provisions" below

Please note that the information about the settlement date or trade date, issue price, underwriting discount and net proceeds to GS Finance Corp. on the front cover page or elsewhere in this prospectus supplement relates only to the initial issuance and sale of the notes. We may decide to sell additional notes on one or more dates

------

after the date of this prospectus supplement, at issue prices and with, underwriting discounts and net proceeds that differ from the amounts set forth on the front cover page or elsewhere in this prospectus supplement. If you have purchased your notes in a market-making transaction after the initial issuance and sale of the notes, any such relevant information about the sale to you will be provided in a separate confirmation of sale.

We describe the terms of your notes in more detail below.

#### Underlying Index, Underlying Index Sponsor and Underlying Index Stocks
In this prospectus supplement, when we refer to the underlying index, we mean the underlying index specified on the front cover page, or any successor underlying index, as it may be modified, replaced or adjusted from time to time as described under "— Payment of Principal on Stated Maturity Date — Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" below. When we refer to the underlying index sponsor as of any time, we mean the entity, including any successor sponsor, that determines and publishes the underlying index as then in effect. When we refer to the underlying index stocks as of any time, we mean the stocks that comprise the underlying index as then in effect, after giving effect to any additions, deletions or substitutions.

#### Payment of Principal on Stated Maturity Date
On the stated maturity date, for each $1,000 face amount of your notes you will receive an amount in cash equal to:

• if a barrier event has <u>not</u> occurred, the *greater* of (i) $1,050 and (ii) the sum of (a) $1,000 *plus* (b) the *product* of $1,000 *times* the absolute value of the underlying index return; or

• if a barrier event <u>has</u> occurred, the *sum* of (i) $1,000 *plus* (ii) the *product* of $1,000 *times* the contingent return.

The underlying index return is calculated by *subtracting* the initial underlying index level from the final underlying index level and *dividing* the result by the initial underlying index level, with the quotient expressed as a percentage.

The initial underlying index level will be set on the trade date and will be the closing level of the underlying index on the trade date. The calculation agent will determine the final underlying index level, which will be the closing level of the underlying index on the determination date. However, the calculation agent will have discretion to adjust the closing level on the determination date or to determine it in a different manner as described under "— Consequences of a Market Disruption Event or a Non-Trading Day" and "— Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" below.

A barrier event occurs when, on any trading day during the observation period, (i) the closing level of the underlying index is below the lower barrier or (ii) the closing level of the underlying index is above the upper barrier. The lower barrier is the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth), and the upper barrier is the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth). The contingent return is 5.00%.

The observation period is the period from but excluding the trade date to and including the determination date, *excluding* any date or dates on which the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event occurs or is continuing or that the calculation agent determines is not a trading day. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, if the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on the last day of the observation period (i.e., the determination date) or that day is not otherwise a trading day, the determination date, and therefore the last day for the observation period, will be postponed as described under "— Determination Date" below.

#### Considerations for Secondary Market Purchasers
A purchaser of these notes in the secondary market should determine if a barrier event has already occurred. The occurrence of a barrier event could affect both the secondary market trading price of these notes after a secondary market purchase or the amount a secondary market purchaser will receive at maturity. In order to determine if a barrier event has occurred, you should determine if, on any date from the day after the trade date to the date of your purchase, the closing level of underlying index was less than the initial underlying index level *minus* 20.00% of the initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth) or the closing level of the underlying index was greater than the initial underlying index level *plus* between 27.60% and 30.60% of the

------

initial underlying index level (rounded to the nearest one-hundredth). Certain financial websites make index levels publicly available, which can be helpful when determining whether a barrier event may have occurred. If you would like assistance in determining whether a barrier event has occurred, please call GS&Co. at (212) 902-0300.

#### Stated Maturity Date
The stated maturity date is expected to be March 31, 2025, unless that day is not a business day, in which case the stated maturity date will be postponed to the next following business day. If the determination date is postponed as described under "— Determination Date" below, 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.

#### Determination Date
The determination date is expected to be March 26, 2025, unless the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on that day or that day is not otherwise a trading day. In that event, the determination date will be the first following trading day on which the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event does not occur and is not continuing. 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. If the determination date is postponed to the last possible day, but a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on that day or such day is not a trading day, that day will nevertheless be the determination date.

#### Consequences of a Market Disruption Event or a Non-Trading Day
If a market disruption event occurs or is continuing on a day that would otherwise be the determination date or such day is not a trading day, then the determination date will be postponed as described under "— Determination Date" above.

If the calculation agent determines that the closing level of the underlying index that must be used to determine the cash settlement amount is not available on the last possible determination date because of a market disruption event, a non-trading day or for any other reason (other than as described under "— Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index" below), then the calculation agent will nevertheless determine the final underlying index level based on its assessment, in good faith in its sole discretion, of the level of the underlying index on that day.

#### Discontinuance or Modification of the Underlying Index
If the underlying index sponsor discontinues publication of the underlying index and the underlying index sponsor or anyone else publishes a substitute underlying index that the calculation agent determines is comparable to the underlying index or if the calculation agent designates a substitute underlying index, then the calculation agent will determine the cash settlement amount on the stated maturity date by reference to the substitute underlying index. We refer to any substitute underlying index approved by the calculation agent as a successor underlying index.

If the calculation agent determines that the publication of the underlying index is discontinued and there is no successor underlying index, the calculation agent will determine the applicable closing level of the underlying index used to determine the cash settlement amount on the stated maturity date by a computation methodology that the calculation agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate the underlying index.

If the calculation agent determines that (i) the underlying index, the stocks comprising the underlying index or the method of calculating the underlying index is changed at any time in any respect — including any addition, deletion or substitution and any reweighting or rebalancing of the underlying index or the underlying index stocks and whether the change is made by the underlying index sponsor under its existing policies or following a modification of those policies, is due to the publication of a successor underlying index, is due to events affecting one or more of the underlying index stocks or their issuers or is due to any other reason — and is not otherwise reflected in the level of the underlying index by the underlying index sponsor pursuant to the then-current underlying index methodology of the underlying index or (ii) there has been a split or reverse split of the underlying index, then the calculation agent will be permitted (but not required) to make such adjustments in the underlying index or the method of its calculation as it believes are appropriate to ensure that the levels of the underlying index used to determine the cash settlement amount on the stated maturity date is equitable.

------

All determinations and adjustments to be made by the calculation agent with respect to the underlying index may be made by the calculation agent in its sole discretion. The calculation agent is not obligated to make any such adjustments.

#### Default Amount on Acceleration
If an event of default occurs and the maturity of your notes is accelerated, we will pay the default amount in respect of the principal of your notes at the maturity, instead of the cash settlement amount on the stated maturity date as described earlier. We describe the default amount under "— Special Calculation Provisions" below.

For the purpose of determining whether the holders of our Series F medium-term notes, which include your notes, are entitled to take any action under the indenture, we will treat the outstanding face amount of your notes as the outstanding principal amount of that note. Although the terms of the offered notes differ from those of the other Series F medium-term notes, holders of specified percentages in principal amount of all Series F medium-term notes, together in some cases with other series of our debt securities, will be able to take action affecting all the Series F medium-term notes, including your notes, except with respect to certain Series F medium-term notes if the terms of such notes specify that the holders of specified percentages in the principal amount of all such notes must also consent to such action. This action may involve changing some of the terms that apply to the Series F medium-term notes or waiving some of our obligations under the indenture. In addition, certain changes to the indenture and the notes that only affect certain debt securities may be made with the approval of holders of a majority of the principal amount of such affected debt securities. We discuss these matters in the accompanying prospectus under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer — Default, Remedies and Waiver of Default" and "— Modification of the Debt Indentures and Waiver of Covenants".

#### Manner of Payment
Any payment on your notes at maturity will be made to an account designated by the holder of your notes and approved by us, or at the office of the trustee in New York City, but only when your notes are surrendered to the trustee at that office. We also may make any payment in accordance with the applicable procedures of the depositary.

#### Modified Business Day
As described in the accompanying prospectus, any payment on your notes that would otherwise be due on a day that is not a business day may instead be paid on the next day that is a business day, with the same effect as if paid on the original due date. For your notes, however, the term business day may have a different meaning than it does for other Series F medium-term notes. We discuss this term under "— Special Calculation Provisions" below.

#### Role of Calculation Agent
The calculation agent in its sole discretion will make all determinations regarding the underlying index, the final underlying index level, the stated maturity date, the determination date, market disruption events, business days, trading days, the underlying index return, the absolute value of the underlying index return, the closing levels of the underlying index on each day during the observation period, whether a barrier event occurs and the cash settlement amount on your notes at maturity. Absent manifest error, all determinations of the calculation agent will be final and binding on you and us, without any liability on the part of the calculation agent.

Please note that GS&Co., our affiliate, is currently serving as the calculation agent as of the date of this prospectus supplement. We may change the calculation agent for your notes at any time after the date of this prospectus supplement without notice and GS&Co. may resign as calculation agent at any time upon 60 days' written notice to us.

#### Special Calculation Provisions

#### Business Day
When we refer to a business day with respect to your notes, we mean a day that is a New York business day as described under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer — Calculations of Interest on Debt Securities — Business Days" on page 24 in the accompanying prospectus.

------

#### Trading Day
When we refer to a trading day with respect to the underlying index, we mean a day on which the respective principal securities markets for all of the underlying index stocks are open for trading, the underlying index sponsor is open for business and the underlying index is calculated and published by the underlying index sponsor.

#### Closing Level
When we refer to the closing level of the underlying index on any trading day, we mean the official closing level of the underlying index or any successor underlying index published by the underlying index sponsor on such trading day.

#### Default Amount
The default amount for your notes on any day (except as provided in the last sentence under "— Default Quotation Period" below) will be an amount, in the specified currency for the principal of your notes, equal to the cost of having a qualified financial institution, of the kind and selected as described below, expressly assume all of our payment and other obligations with respect to your notes as of that day and as if no default or acceleration had occurred, or to undertake other obligations providing substantially equivalent economic value to you with respect to your notes. That cost will equal:

• the lowest amount that a qualified financial institution would charge to effect this assumption or undertaking, *plus* 

• the reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by the holder of your notes in preparing any documentation necessary for this assumption or undertaking.

During the default quotation period for your notes, which we describe below, the holder and/or we may request a qualified financial institution to provide a quotation of the amount it would charge to effect this assumption or undertaking. If either party obtains a quotation, it must notify the other party in writing of the quotation. The amount referred to in the first bullet point above will equal the lowest—or, if there is only one, the only— quotation obtained, and as to which notice is so given, during the default quotation period. With respect to any quotation, however, the party not obtaining the quotation may object, on reasonable and significant grounds, to the assumption or undertaking by the qualified financial institution providing the quotation and notify the other party in writing of those grounds within two business days after the last day of the default quotation period, in which case that quotation will be disregarded in determining the default amount.

#### Default Quotation Period
The default quotation period is the period beginning on the day the default amount first becomes due and ending on the third business day after that day, unless:

• no quotation of the kind referred to above is obtained, or

• every quotation of that kind obtained is objected to within five business days after the day the default amount first becomes due.

If either of these two events occurs, the default quotation period will continue until the third business day after the first business day on which prompt notice of a quotation is given as described above. If that quotation is objected to as described above within five business days after that first business day, however, the default quotation period will continue as described in the prior sentence and this sentence.

In any event, if the default quotation period and the subsequent two business day objection period have not ended before the determination date, then the default amount will equal the principal amount of your notes.

#### Qualified Financial Institutions
For the purpose of determining the default amount at any time, a qualified financial institution must be a financial institution organized under the laws of any jurisdiction in the United States of America, Europe or Japan, which at that time has outstanding debt obligations with a stated maturity of one year or less from the date of issue and that is, or whose securities are, rated either:

• A-1 or higher by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services or any successor, or any other comparable rating then used by that rating agency, or

------

• P-1 or higher by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or any successor, or any other comparable rating then used by that rating agency.

#### Market Disruption Event
With respect to any given trading day, any of the following will be a market disruption event:

• a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading in underlying index stocks constituting 20% or more, by weight, of the underlying index on their respective primary markets, in each case for more than two consecutive hours of trading or during the one -half hour before the close of trading in that market, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, or

• a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading in option or futures contracts relating to the underlying index or to underlying index stocks constituting 20% or more, by weight, of the underlying index in the respective primary markets for those contracts, in each case for more than two consecutive hours of trading or during the one-half hour before the close of trading in that market, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion, or

• underlying index stocks constituting 20% or more, by weight, of the underlying index, or option or futures contracts, if available, relating to the underlying index or to underlying index stocks constituting 20% or more, by weight, of the underlying index do not trade on what were the respective primary markets for those underlying index stocks or contracts, as determined by the calculation agent in its sole discretion,

*and, in the case of any of these events, the calculation agent determines in its sole discretion that the event could materially interfere with the ability of GS Finance Corp. or any of its affiliates or a similarly situated party to unwind all or a material portion of a hedge that could be effected with respect to the offered notes. For more information about hedging by GS Finance Corp. and/or any of its affiliates, see "Use of Proceeds" and "Hedging" below.*

The following events will not be market disruption events:

• a limitation on the hours or numbers of days of trading, but only if the limitation results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the relevant market, and

• a decision to permanently discontinue trading in option or futures contracts relating to the underlying index or to any underlying index stock.

For this purpose, an "absence of trading" in the primary securities market on which an underlying index stock is traded, or on which option or futures contracts relating to the underlying index or an underlying index stock 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 an underlying index stock or in option or futures contracts, if available, relating to the underlying index or an underlying index stock in the primary market for that stock or those contracts, by reason of:

• a price change exceeding limits set by that market,

• an imbalance of orders relating to that underlying index stock or those contracts, or

• a disparity in bid and ask quotes relating to that underlying index stock or those contracts,

will constitute a suspension or material limitation of trading in that stock or those contracts in that market.

As is the case throughout this prospectus supplement, references to the underlying index in this description of market disruption events includes the underlying index and any successor underlying index as it may be modified, replaced or adjusted from time to time.

------

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

We intend to lend the net proceeds from the sale of the offered notes to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or its affiliates. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. expects to use the proceeds from such loans for the purposes we describe in the accompanying prospectus under "Use of Proceeds". We or our affiliates may also use those proceeds in transactions intended to hedge our obligations under the offered notes as described below.

#### HEDGING
In anticipation of the sale of the offered notes, we and/or our affiliates have entered into or expect to enter into hedging transactions involving purchases of listed or over-the-counter options, futures and other instruments linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks on or before the trade date. In addition, from time to time after we issue the offered notes, we and/or our affiliates may enter into additional hedging transactions and unwind those we have entered into in connection with the offered notes and perhaps in connection with other index-linked notes we issue, some of which may have returns linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks. Consequently, with regard to your notes, from time to time, we and/or our affiliates:

• expect to acquire, or dispose of positions in listed or over-the-counter options, futures or other instruments linked to the underlying index or some or all of the underlying index stocks,

• may take or dispose of positions in the securities of the underlying index stock issuers themselves,

• may take or dispose of positions in listed or over-the-counter options or other instruments based on an underlying index designed to track the performance of the stock exchanges or other components of the equity markets, and/or

• may take short positions in the underlying index stocks or other securities of the kind described above— i.e., we and/or our affiliates may sell securities of the kind that we do not own or that we borrow for delivery to purchaser.

We and/or our affiliates may acquire a long or short position in securities similar to your notes from time to time and may, in our or their sole discretion, hold or resell those securities.

In the future, we and/or our affiliates expect to close out hedge positions relating to the offered notes and perhaps relating to other notes with returns linked to the underlying index or the underlying index stocks. We expect these steps to involve sales of instruments linked to the underlying index on or shortly before the determination date. These steps may also involve sales and/or purchases of some or all of the underlying index stocks, or listed or over-the-counter options, futures or other instruments linked to the underlying index, some or all of the underlying index stocks or indices designed to track the performance of the U.S., European, Asian or other stock exchanges or other components of the U.S., European, Asian or other equity markets or other components of such markets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br> *The hedging activity discussed above may adversely affect the market value of your notes from time to time and the amount we will pay on your notes at maturity. See "Additional Risk Factors Specific to Your Notes" above for a discussion of these adverse effects.*<br>

#### The Underlying index
The S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index includes a representative sample of 500 companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy and is intended to provide a performance benchmark for the large-cap U.S. equity markets. For more details about the underlying index, the underlying index sponsor and license agreement between the underlying index sponsor and the issuer, see "The Underliers — S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index" on page S-106 of the accompanying underlier supplement no. 33.

The S&P 500<sup>®</sup> Index is a product of S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, and has been licensed for use by GS Finance Corp. ("Goldman"). Standard & Poor's<sup>®</sup> and S&P<sup>®</sup> are registered trademarks of Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC; Dow Jones<sup>®</sup> is a registered trademark of Dow Jones Trademark Holdings LLC ("Dow Jones") and these trademarks have been licensed for use by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC and sublicensed for certain purposes by Goldman. Goldman's notes are not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, Dow Jones, Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC or any of their respective affiliates and neither S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC, Dow Jones, Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC or any of their respective affiliates make any representation regarding the advisability of investing in such notes.

------

#### Historical Closing Levels of the Underlying Index
The closing level of the underlying index has fluctuated in the past and may, in the future, experience significant fluctuations. **In particular, the underlying index has recently experienced extreme and unusual volatility.** Any historical upward or downward trend in the closing level of the underlying index during the period shown below is not an indication that the underlying index is 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 underlying index as an indication of the future performance of the underlying index including because of the recent volatility described above. We cannot give you any assurance that the future performance of the underlying index or the underlying index stocks will result in your 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 underlying index. Before investing in the offered notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the levels of the underlying index between the date of this prospectus 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 underlying index.** The actual performance of the underlying index over the life of the offered notes, as well as the cash settlement amount, may bear little relation to the historical levels shown below.

The graph below shows the daily historical closing levels of the underlying index from January 1, 2018 through March 13, 2023. As a result, the following graph does 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 indices. We obtained the closing levels in the graph below from Bloomberg Financial Services, without independent verification.

#### 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. It applies to you only if you hold your notes as a capital asset for tax purposes. This section does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules, such as:

• a dealer in securities or currencies;

• a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;

• a bank;

• a regulated investment company;

• a life insurance company;

• a tax-exempt organization;

• a partnership;

• an accrual method taxpayer subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of its use of financial statements;

• a person that owns the notes as a hedge or that is hedged against interest rate risks;

• a person that owns the notes as part of a straddle or conversion transaction for tax purposes; or

• a United States holder (as defined below) whose functional currency for tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar.

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. 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 subsection describes the tax consequences to a United States holder. You are a United States holder if you are a beneficial owner of notes and you are:

● a citizen or resident of the United States;

● a domestic corporation;

● an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

● a trust if a United States court can exercise primary supervision over the trust's administration and one or more United States persons are authorized to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

If you are not a United States holder, this section does not apply to you and you should refer to "— Non-United States Holders" below.

Your notes will be treated as debt instruments subject to special rules governing contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Under those rules, and subject to the discussion below regarding fixed but deferred contingent payments, the amount of interest you are required to take into account for each accrual period will be determined by constructing a projected payment schedule for your 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 yield at which we would issue a noncontingent fixed rate debt instrument with terms and conditions similar to your notes (the "comparable yield") and then determining as of the issue date a payment schedule that would produce the comparable yield. These rules will have the effect of requiring you to include amounts in income in respect of your notes over their term based on the comparable yield for the notes, even though you will not receive any payments from us until maturity.

------

We have determined that the comparable yield for the notes is equal to % per annum, compounded semi-annually, with a projected payment at maturity of $ based on an investment of $1,000.

Based on this comparable yield, if you are an initial holder that holds a note until maturity and you pay your taxes on a calendar year basis, we have determined that you would be required to report the following amounts as ordinary income, not taking into account any positive or negative adjustments you may be required to take into account based on the actual payments on the notes, from the note each year:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Accrual Period** | **Interest Deemed to Accrue During Accrual Period (per $1,000 note)** | **Total Interest Deemed to Have Accrued from Original Issue Date (per $1,000 note) as of End of Accrual Period** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; through December 31, 2023 |  |  |
| January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 |  |  |
| January 1, 2025 through  |  |  |

---

You are required to use the comparable yield and projected payment schedule that we compute in determining your interest accruals in respect of your notes, unless you timely disclose and justify on your U.S. federal income tax return the use of a different comparable yield and projected payment schedule.

*The comparable yield and projected payment schedule are not provided to you for any purpose other than the determination of your interest accruals in respect of your notes, and we make no representation regarding the amount of contingent payments with respect to your notes.*

If you purchase your notes at a price other than their adjusted issue price determined for tax purposes, you must determine the extent to which the difference between the price you paid for your notes and their adjusted issue price is attributable to a change in expectations as to the projected payment schedule, a change in interest rates, or both, and reasonably allocate the difference accordingly. The adjusted issue price of your notes will equal your notes' original issue price plus any interest deemed to be accrued on your notes (under the rules governing contingent payment debt instruments) as of the time you purchase your notes. The original issue price of your notes will be the first price at which a substantial amount of the notes is sold to persons other than bond houses, brokers or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers. Therefore, you may be required to make the adjustments described above even if you purchase your notes in the initial offering if you purchase your notes at a price other than the issue price.

If the adjusted issue price of your notes is greater than the price you paid for your notes, you must make positive adjustments increasing (i) the amount of interest that you would otherwise accrue and include in income each year, and (ii) the amount of ordinary income (or decreasing the amount of ordinary loss) recognized upon maturity by the amounts allocated under the previous paragraph to each of interest and the projected payment schedule; if the adjusted issue price of your notes is less than the price you paid for your notes, you must make negative adjustments, decreasing (i) the amount of interest that you must include in income each year, and (ii) the amount of ordinary income (or increasing the amount of ordinary loss) recognized upon maturity by the amounts allocated under the previous paragraph to each of interest and the projected payment schedule. Adjustments allocated to the interest amount are not made until the date the daily portion of interest accrues.

Because any Form 1099-OID that you receive will not reflect the effects of positive or negative adjustments resulting from your purchase of notes at a price other than the adjusted issue price determined for tax purposes, you are urged to consult with your tax advisor as to whether and how adjustments should be made to the amounts reported on any Form 1099-OID.

You will recognize gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, or maturity of your notes in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the cash amount you receive at such time and your adjusted basis in your notes. In general, your adjusted basis in your notes will equal the amount you paid for your notes, increased by the amount of interest you previously accrued with respect to your notes (in accordance with the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule for your notes) and increased or decreased by the amount of any positive or negative adjustment, respectively, that you are required to make if you purchase your notes at a price other than the adjusted issue price determined for tax purposes (as described in the accompanying prospectus).

------

Except as described below with respect to certain fixed but deferred contingent payments, any gain you recognize upon the sale, exchange, or maturity of your notes will be ordinary interest income and any loss you recognize at such time will be 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, capital loss. If you are a noncorporate holder, you would generally be able to use such ordinary loss to offset your income only in the taxable year in which you recognize the ordinary loss and would generally not be able to carry such ordinary loss forward or back to offset income in other taxable years.

#### Fixed but deferred contingent payments
Notwithstanding the rules described above, special rules apply to a contingent payment debt instrument where all the remaining contingent payments on such instrument become fixed more than six months before all of the contingent payments on such instrument become due. This rule would apply to your notes, for example, if on a date that is more than six months prior to maturity a barrier event occurs. Although not entirely clear, we think that in such a case it would be reasonable for an initial holder of the notes to recognize an ordinary loss equal to any interest previously accrued on the notes that is in excess of the Contingent Return, and to cease accruing interest over the remainder of the notes. Thereafter, any gain or loss you recognize from a subsequent sale of the notes should generally be characterized as capital gain or loss.

The application to your notes of the rules governing contingent payments that become fixed are not clear, and the Internal Revenue Service could assert that the tax consequences to you should be different than described above. You are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the application of these rules to your particular circumstances.

#### Non-United States Holders
If you are a non-United States holder, please see the discussion under "United States Taxation — Taxation of Debt Securities — Non-United States Holders" in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the tax consequences relevant to you. 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:

● a nonresident alien individual;

● a foreign corporation; or

● an estate or trust that in either case is not subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis on income or gain from the notes.

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 amounts you receive upon the sale, exchange, 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 the stocks included in the underlier 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, 2025, 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.

#### EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT
*This section is only relevant to you if you are an insurance company or the fiduciary of a pension plan or an employee benefit plan (including a governmental plan, an IRA or a Keogh Plan) proposing to invest in the notes.*

The U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") and the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), prohibit certain transactions ("prohibited transactions") involving the assets of an employee benefit plan that is subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (including individual retirement accounts, Keogh plans and other plans described in Section 4975(e)(1) of the Code) (a "Plan") and certain persons who are "parties in interest" (within the meaning of ERISA) or "disqualified persons" (within the meaning of the Code) with respect to the Plan; governmental plans may be subject to similar prohibitions unless an exemption applies to the transaction. The assets of a Plan may include assets held in the general account of an insurance company that are deemed "plan assets" under ERISA or assets of certain investment vehicles in which the Plan invests. Each of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and certain of its affiliates may be considered a "party in interest" or a "disqualified person" with respect to many Plans, and, accordingly, prohibited transactions may arise if the notes are acquired by or on behalf of a Plan unless those notes are acquired and held pursuant to an available exemption. In general, available exemptions include: transactions effected on behalf of that Plan by a "qualified professional asset manager" (prohibited transaction exemption 84-14) or an "in-house asset manager" (prohibited transaction exemption 96-23), transactions involving insurance company general accounts (prohibited transaction exemption 95-60), transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts (prohibited transaction exemption 90 1), transactions involving bank collective investment funds (prohibited transaction exemption 91-38) and transactions with service providers under Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code where the Plan receives no less and pays no more than "adequate consideration" (within the meaning of Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(f)(10) of the Code). The person making the decision on behalf of a Plan or a governmental plan shall be deemed, on behalf of itself and the plan, by purchasing and holding the notes, or exercising any rights related thereto, to represent that (a) the plan will receive no less and pay no more than "adequate consideration" (within the meaning of Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(f)(10) of the Code) in connection with the purchase and holding of the notes, (b) none of the purchase, holding or disposition of the notes or the exercise of any rights related to the notes will result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code (or, with respect to a governmental plan, under any similar applicable law or regulation), and (c) neither The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. nor any of its affiliates is a "fiduciary" (within the meaning of Section 3(21) of ERISA) or, with respect to a governmental plan, under any similar applicable law or regulation) with respect to the purchaser or holder in connection with such person's acquisition, disposition or holding of the notes, or as a result of any exercise by The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. or any of its affiliates of any rights in connection with the notes, and neither The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. nor any of its affiliates has provided investment advice in connection with such person's acquisition, disposition or holding of the notes.

*If you are an insurance company or the fiduciary of a pension plan or an employee benefit plan (including a governmental plan, an IRA or a Keogh plan) and propose to invest in the notes, you should consult your legal counsel.*

**SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

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 prospectus 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 prospectus supplement, and to UBS Financial Services Inc. at such price less a concession not in excess of 2.00% of the face amount.

We expect to deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on March 31, 2023. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to two business days before delivery will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

In the future, GS&Co. or other affiliates of GS Finance Corp. may repurchase and resell the offered notes in market-making transactions, with resales being made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of resale or at negotiated prices. GS Finance Corp. estimates that its share of the total offering expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $.
