Summary

The Autocallable Leveraged Index Return Notes® Linked to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, due July 27, 2028 (the "notes") are our senior unsecured debt securities. Payments on the notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by GSG. The notes and the related guarantee are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or secured by collateral. The notes will rank equally in right of payment with all of GSFC's other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, except obligations that are subject to any priorities or preferences by law, and the related guarantee will rank equally in right of payment with all of GSG's other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, except obligations that are subject to any priorities or preferences by law, and senior to its subordinated obligations. Any payments due on the notes, including any repayment of principal, will be subject to the credit risk of GSFC, as issuer, and GSG, as guarantor. The notes will be automatically called, and you will receive the Call Payment, if the Observation Value is greater than or equal to the Call Value on the Call Observation Date. No further amounts will be payable with respect to the notes following an automatic call. If the notes are not called, at maturity, the notes provide you a leveraged return if the Ending Value is greater than the Starting Value. If the Ending Value is equal to or less than the Starting Value but greater than or equal to the Threshold Value, you will receive the principal amount of your notes. If the Ending Value is less than the Threshold Value, your notes are subject to 1-to-1 downside exposure to decreases in the Market Measure from the Starting Value, with up to 100.00% of the principal amount at risk. All payments on the notes will be calculated based on the $10 principal amount per unit and will depend on the performance of the Market Measure, subject to our and GSG's credit risk. See "Terms of the Notes" below.

The economic terms of the notes are based upon 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 variables will influence the economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date. In addition, the underwriting discount and costs incurred in creating, documenting and marketing the notes will reduce the economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date. For more information, see "Risk Factors - Valuation- and Market-related Risks - The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the pricing date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by GS&Co.) is less than the public offering price of your notes." on page TS-10 of this term sheet.

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 term sheet, 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 Note Prospectus in the initial sale of the notes. In addition, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or any other affiliate of GS Finance Corp. may use this Note 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 Note Prospectus is being used in a market-making transaction.

Estimated Value of Your Notes

The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the pricing date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (GS&Co.) and taking into account our credit spreads) is equal to approximately $9.74 per $10 principal amount, which is less than the public offering 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 $0.26 per $10 principal amount).

Prior to October 20, 2026, 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 from the time of pricing through October 19, 2026). On and after October 20, 2026, 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.

Minimum Purchase Amount of Notes Offered Hereby

In connection with the initial offering of the notes, the minimum principal amount of notes that may be purchased by any investor is $100,000.

Determining Payments on the Notes

Automatic Call Provision

The notes will be called automatically if the Observation Value on the Call Observation Date is greater than or equal to the Call Value. If the notes are called, you will receive $10 per unit plus the Call Premium due on the Call Payment Date and no further amounts will be payable on the notes.

Redemption Amount Determination

If the notes are not automatically called, on the maturity date, you will receive a cash payment per unit determined as follows:

You will lose all or a significant portion of the principal amount of the notes if the Ending Value is less than the Threshold Value.

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.

The information in this term sheet supersedes any conflicting information in the documents listed above. In addition, some of the terms or features described in the listed documents may not apply to your notes.

We refer to the notes we are offering by this term sheet as the "offered notes" or the "notes". Each of the offered notes has the terms described below. Please note that in this term sheet, 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. The notes will be issued under 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.

The notes will be issued in book-entry form and represented by master note no. 3, dated March 22, 2021. References herein to "final calculation day" shall be deemed to refer to "determination date" in such master note no. 3, dated March 22, 2021.

Investor Considerations

We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you invest in the notes.

Hypothetical Payout Profile and Examples of Payments at Maturity

The below graph is based on hypothetical numbers and values. The below graph shows a payout profile at maturity, which would only apply if the notes are not called on the Call Observation Date.

The following table and examples are for purposes of illustration only. They are based on hypothetical values and show hypothetical returns on the notes, assuming the notes are not called on the Call Observation Date. They illustrate the calculation of the Redemption Amount and total rate of return based on a hypothetical Starting Value of 100.00, a Threshold Value of 60.00, the Participation Rate of 150.00% and a range of hypothetical Ending Values. The actual amount you receive and the resulting return will depend on the actual Starting Value, Threshold Value and Ending Value, whether the notes are called on the Call Observation Date and whether you hold the notes to maturity. The following examples do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the notes.

For recent actual levels of the Market Measure, see "The Market Measure" section below. All payments on the notes are subject to issuer and guarantor credit risk.

Redemption Amount Calculation Examples

Risk Factors

An investment in your notes is subject to the risks described below, as well as the risks and considerations described under "Risk Factors" beginning on page PS-7 of the accompanying product supplement, "Considerations Relating to Indexed Notes" beginning on page S-11 of the accompanying prospectus supplement and "Considerations Relating to Indexed Securities" beginning on page 101 of the accompanying prospectus. You should carefully review these risks and considerations as well as the more detailed explanation of risks described in the accompanying prospectus, the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement. You should also review the terms of the notes described herein and in the accompanying prospectus, the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying product supplement. Your notes are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. The notes are not an appropriate investment for you if you are not knowledgeable about significant elements of the notes or financial matters in general. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you invest in the notes. Also, your notes are not equivalent to investing directly in the securities included in the Market Measure to which your notes are linked.

Structure-related Risks

Valuation- and Market-related Risks

In estimating the value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the pricing 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 "Risk Factors - Valuation- and Market-related Risks - The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments, and if you attempt to sell the notes prior to

maturity, their market value, if any, will be affected by various factors that interrelate in complex ways, and their market value may be less than the principal amount." on page PS-11 of the accompanying product supplement.

The difference between the estimated value of your notes as of the time the terms of your notes are set on the pricing date and the public offering 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 GSG. 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 "Risk Factors - Valuation- and Market-related Risks - Your notes may not have an active trading market." on page PS-11 of the accompanying product supplement.

Conflict-related Risks

Market Measure-related Risks

Tax-related Risks

Additional Risk Factors

Additional Structure-related Risks

Prices of securities in foreign countries are subject to political, economic, financial and social factors that apply in those geographical regions. These factors, which could negatively affect those securities markets, include the possibility of recent or future changes in a foreign government's economic and fiscal policies, the possible imposition of, or changes in, currency exchange laws or other laws or restrictions applicable to foreign companies or investments in foreign equity securities and the possibility of fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies, the possibility of outbreaks of hostility and political instability and the possibility of natural disaster or adverse public health developments in the region. Moreover, foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in important respects such as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency.

Countries with emerging markets may have relatively unstable governments, may present the risks of nationalization of businesses, restrictions on foreign ownership and prohibitions on the repatriation of assets, and may have less protection of property rights than more developed countries. The economies of countries with emerging markets may be based on only a few industries, may be highly vulnerable to changes in local or global trade conditions (due to economic dependence upon commodity prices and international trade), and may suffer from extreme and volatile debt burdens, currency devaluations or inflation rates. Local securities markets may trade a small number of securities and may be unable to respond effectively to increases in trading volume, potentially making prompt liquidation of holdings difficult or impossible at times. The securities included in the Market Measure may be listed on a foreign stock exchange. A foreign stock exchange may impose trading limitations intended to prevent extreme fluctuations in individual security prices and may suspend trading in certain circumstances. These actions could limit variations in the price of the Market Measure which could, in turn, adversely affect the value of the notes.

The Market Measure

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which we also refer to in this description as the "index":

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is intended to provide performance benchmarks for the emerging equity markets in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, which are, as of the date of this term sheet, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Korea, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. The constituent stocks of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index are derived from the constituent stocks in the 24 MSCI standard single country indices for the emerging market countries listed above. As of the close on March 9, 2022, MSCI reclassified Russia from emerging markets status to standalone markets status. As a result, at that time, all stocks assigned to Russia were deleted from the MSCI Emerging Markets Index at a price that was effectively zero.

Construction of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index

MSCI undertakes an index construction process at an individual market level, which involves: (i) defining the equity universe for each market; (ii) determining the market investable equity universe for each market; (iii) determining market capitalization size segments for each market; (iv) applying index continuity rules for the standard index; and (v) classifying securities under the Global Industry Classification Standard. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is an emerging markets index. All of the MSCI Indices are standard indices, meaning that only securities that would qualify for inclusion in a large cap index or a mid cap index will be included as described below.

Defining the Equity Universe

Determining the Market Investable Equity Universes

A market investable equity universe for a market is derived by (i) identifying eligible listings for each security in the equity universe; and (ii) applying investability screens to individual companies and securities in the equity universe that are classified in that market. A market is generally equivalent to a single country. The global investable equity universe is the aggregation of all market investable equity universes.

In order for a country to meet the foreign listing materiality requirement, the following is determined: all securities represented by a foreign listing that would be included in the country's MSCI Country Investable Market Index if foreign listings were eligible from that country. The aggregate free-float adjusted market capitalization for all such securities should represent at least (i) 5% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization of the relevant MSCI Country Investable Market Index and (ii) 0.05% of the free-float adjusted market capitalization of the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index. If a country does not meet the foreign listing materiality requirement, then securities in that country may not be represented by a foreign listing in the global investable equity universe.

As of May 2026, the equity universe minimum size requirement was set at US$537,000,000 for the Developed and Emerging Markets. Companies with a full market capitalization below this level are not included in any market investable equity universe. The equity universe minimum size requirement is reviewed and, if necessary, revised at each quarterly index review, as described below.

Only one listing per security may be included in the market investable equity universe. In instances where a security has two or more eligible listings that meet the above liquidity requirements, then the following priority rules are used to determine which listing will be used for potential inclusion of the security in the market investable equity universe:

Due to liquidity concerns relating to securities trading at very high stock prices, a security that is currently not a constituent of a MSCI Global Investable Markets Index that is trading at a stock price above US$10,000 will fail the liquidity screening and will not be included in any market investable equity universe.

MSCI will then derive a "foreign inclusion factor" for the company that reflects the proportion of shares outstanding that is available for purchase in the public equity markets by international investors. MSCI will then "float-adjust" the weight of each constituent company in an index by the company's foreign inclusion factor.

Once the free float factor has been determined for a security, the security's total market capitalization is then adjusted by such free float factor, resulting in the free float-adjusted market capitalization figure for the security.

Determining Market Capitalization Size Segments for Each Market

Once a market investable equity universe is defined, it is segmented into the following size-based indices:

Creating the size segment indices in each market involves the following steps: (i) defining the market coverage target range for each size segment; (ii) determining the global minimum size range for each size segment; (iii) determining the market size segment cutoffs and associated segment number of companies; (iv) assigning companies to the size segments; and (v) applying final size-segment investability requirements. For emerging market indices, the market coverage for a standard index is 42.5%. As of April 2026, the global minimum size range for an emerging market standard index is a full market capitalization of USD 3.94 billion to USD 9.06 billion.

Index Continuity Rules for Standard Indices

In order to achieve index continuity, as well as provide some basic level of diversification within a market index, notwithstanding the effect of other index construction rules, a minimum number of five constituents will be maintained for a developed market standard index and a minimum number of three constituents will be maintained for an emerging market standard index, and involves the following steps:

Constituent index means any of the component country indices comprising the MSCI Emerging Markets Index .

Classifying Securities under the Global Industry Classification Standard

All securities in the global investable equity universe are assigned to the industry that best describes their business activities. The GICS classification of each security is used by MSCI to construct additional indices.

Calculation Methodology for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index

Price Return Methodology

The performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index is a free float weighted average of the U.S. dollar values of its component securities.

Prices used to calculate the component securities are the official exchange closing prices or prices accepted as such in the relevant market. In the case of a market closure, or if a security does not trade on a specific day or during a specific period, MSCI carries the latest available closing price. In the event of a market outage resulting in any component security price to be unavailable, MSCI will generally use the last reported price for such component security for the purpose of performance calculation. If MSCI determines that another price is more appropriate based on the circumstances, an announcement would be sent to clients with the related information. Closing prices are converted into U.S. dollars, as applicable, using the closing spot exchange rates calculated by WMR at 4:00 P.M. London Time.

Maintenance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index

In order to maintain the representativeness of the MSCI Indices, structural changes may be made by adding or deleting component securities. Currently, such changes in the MSCI Indices may generally only be made on four dates throughout the year: after the close of the last business day of each February, May, August and November.

Each country index is maintained with the objective of reflecting, on a timely basis, the evolution of the underlying equity markets. In maintaining each component country index, emphasis is also placed on its continuity, continuous investability of constituents and replicability of the index and on index stability and minimizing turnover.

MSCI classifies index maintenance in three broad categories. The first consists of ongoing event related changes, such as mergers and acquisitions, which are generally implemented in the country indices in which they occur. The second category consists of light rebalancings, aimed at promptly reflecting other significant market events under conditions of market stress. The third category consists of quarterly index reviews that systematically re-assess the various dimensions of the equity universe.

Ongoing event-related changes to the country indices are the result of mergers, acquisitions, spin-offs, bankruptcies, reorganizations and other similar corporate events. They can also result from capital reorganizations in the form of rights issues, stock bonus issues, public placements and other similar corporate actions that take place on a continuing basis.

Securities may be considered for early deletions due to one of the following scenarios:

Securities may also be considered for an early deletion due to a corporate event when:

In between the regularly scheduled quarterly index review, certain corporate events may lead to changes in the number of shares and/or the foreign inclusion factors of an existing index constituent. Such changes in number of shares and/or foreign inclusion factors related to primary equity offerings representing at least 5% of the security's pre-event number of shares are implemented simultaneously with the event. However, if the implementation threshold is not met, such changes are considered for implementation at a subsequent index review. The post event number of shares and/or foreign inclusion factor is estimated based on the terms of the event and any publicly available information on the post event shareholding structure. When subsequent public disclosure is made by the company regarding the new shareholder structure following the event implementation resulting in a different estimate than that calculated at the time of the event, MSCI will update the number of shares, and/or foreign inclusion factors at the following regularly scheduled index review. Pending number of shares and/or free float changes, if any, including any change in shareholder structure and/or foreign ownership limits, are implemented simultaneously with the event, unless the change in number of shares is less than 1% on a post-event number of shares basis, in which case it will be implemented at a subsequent quarterly index review. Changes that do not meet the criteria for implementation at the time of the event as explained above are implemented at a subsequent quarterly index review. All changes resulting from corporate events are announced prior to their implementation.

MSCI's light rebalancing process aims to ensure that the country indices continue to be an accurate reflection of evolving equity markets during conditions of market stress. This goal is achieved by timely reflecting significant market driven changes that were not captured in each index at the time of their actual occurrence and that should not wait until the quarterly index review due to their importance. MSCI will consider switching to a "light rebalancing" in place of the usual quarterly index review only if one of the following two conditions is met within the last ten business days of the month prior to the announcement date of a quarterly index review (the "market monitoring period"): (1) for any 3 days within the market monitoring period, the MSCI ACWI Index-weighted bid-ask spread breaches 0.19% and the MSCI ACWI Index volatility over the past 10 business days breaks 0.55 or (2) there are unexpected full day or partial stock exchange closures impacting 20% of MSCI ACWI Index constituents cumulatively over the market monitoring period. The final decision of whether or not to switch to a "light rebalancing" will be taken by relevant MSCI index committee(s). These light rebalancings may result in additions and deletions of component securities from a country index (or a security being removed from one country listing and represented by a different country listing) and changes in "foreign inclusion factors" and in number of shares. Additions and deletions to component securities may result from: the addition of large companies that did not meet the minimum size criterion for inclusion at the time of their initial public offering or secondary offering; the replacement of companies which are no longer suitable industry representatives; the deletion of securities whose overall free float has fallen to less than 15% and that do not meet specified criteria; the deletion of securities that have become very small or illiquid; and the addition or deletion of securities as a result of

other market events. During light rebalancings, foreign inclusion factors and number of shares will be reviewed as discussed below. MSCI has noted that consistency is a factor in maintaining each component country index.

MSCI's quarterly index review is designed to systematically reassess the component securities of the index. During each quarterly index review, the universe of component securities is updated and the global minimum size range for the index is recalculated, which is based on the full market capitalization and the cumulative free float-adjusted market capitalization coverage of each security that is eligible to be included in the index. The following index maintenance activities, among others, are undertaken during each quarterly index review: the list of countries in which securities may be represented by foreign listings is reviewed; the component securities are updated by identifying new equity securities that were not part of the index at the time of the previous quarterly index review; the minimum size requirement for the index is updated and new companies are evaluated relative to the new minimum size requirement; existing component securities that do not meet the minimum liquidity requirements of the index may be removed (or, with respect to any such security that has other listings, a determination is made as to whether any such listing can be used to represent the security in the market investable universe); changes in "foreign inclusion factors" are implemented; and changes in number of shares are updated. During a quarterly index review, component securities may be added or deleted from a country index for a range of reasons, including the reasons discussed with respect to component securities changes during quarterly index reviews as discussed above. As discussed above, small changes in the number of shares are generally updated at the quarterly index review rather than at the time of the event, provided that the absolute number of shares change is at least 1,000 shares or the relative number of shares change is at least 0.02%. Foreign listings may become eligible to represent securities only from the countries that met the foreign listing materiality requirement at least two quarterly index reviews prior (this requirement is applied only to countries that do not yet include foreign listed securities). Once a country meets the foreign listing materiality requirement at a given quarterly index review, foreign listings will remain eligible for such country even if the foreign listing materiality requirements are not met in the future.

The results of the quarterly index reviews are announced at least two weeks in advance of their effective implementation dates, which are generally set at the close of the last business day of February, May, August and November.

Index maintenance also includes monitoring and completing adjustments for share changes, stock splits, stock dividends, and stock price adjustments due to company restructurings or spin-offs as well as deleting constituents that enter ineligible alert boards.

These guidelines and the policies implementing the guidelines are the responsibility of, and, ultimately, subject to adjustment by, MSCI.

Historical Closing Levels of the Market Measure

The closing level of the Market Measure has fluctuated in the past and may, in the future, experience significant fluctuations. In particular, the Market Measure has recently experienced extreme and unusual volatility. Any historical upward or downward trend in the closing level of the Market Measure during the period shown below is not an indication that the Market Measure 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 Market Measure as an indication of the future performance of the Market Measure, including because of the recent volatility described above. We cannot give you any assurance that the future performance of the Market Measure or the stocks included in Market Measure will result in you receiving an amount greater than the outstanding principal amount of your notes on the maturity date.

Neither we nor any of our affiliates make any representation to you as to the performance of the Market Measure. Before investing in the offered notes, you should consult publicly available information to determine the levels of the Market Measure between the date of this term sheet 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 Market Measure. The actual performance of the Market Measure over the life of the offered notes, as well as the Redemption Amount, may bear little relation to the historical closing levels shown below.

The graph below shows the daily historical closing levels of the Market Measure from January 1, 2016 through July 20, 2026. 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. On July 20, 2026, the closing level of the Market Measure was 1,616.90.

Supplement to the Plan of Distribution; Conflicts of Interest

See "Supplemental Plan of Distribution" on page PS-43 of the accompanying product supplement and "Plan of Distribution - Conflicts of Interest" on page 127 of the accompanying prospectus. GSFC estimates that its share of the total offering expenses, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $10,000.

GSFC will sell to GS&Co., and GS&Co. will purchase from GSFC, the aggregate principal amount of the offered notes specified on the front cover of this term sheet. MLPF&S will purchase the notes from GS&Co. for resale, and will receive a discount in connection with the sale of the notes in an amount up to the full amount of underwriting discount set forth on the cover of this term sheet. MLPF&S will offer the notes at the public offering price set forth on the cover page hereto. GS&Co. is an affiliate of GSFC and GSG and, as such, will have a "conflict of interest" in this offering of notes within the meaning of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) Rule 5121. Consequently, this offering of notes will be conducted in compliance with the provisions of FINRA Rule 5121. GS&Co. will not be permitted to sell notes in this offering to an account over which it exercises discretionary authority without the prior specific written approval of the account holder. We will pay a fee to LFT Securities, LLC for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering, which will reduce the economic terms of the notes to you. An affiliate of MLPF&S has an ownership interest in LFT Securities, LLC.

In connection with the initial offering of the notes, the minimum principal amount of notes that may be purchased by any investor is $100,000.

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

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

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system. If you place an order to purchase the notes, you are consenting to MLPF&S and/or one of its affiliates acting as a principal in effecting the transaction for your account.

The value of the notes shown on your account statement will be based on GS&Co.'s estimate of the value of the notes if GS&Co. were to make a market in the notes, which they are not obligated to do. That estimate will be based upon the price that GS&Co. may pay for the notes in light of then-prevailing market conditions and other considerations as described under "Risk Factors - Valuation- and Market-related Risks - The estimated value of your notes at the time the terms of your notes are set on the pricing date (as determined by reference to pricing models used by GS&Co.) is less than the public offering price of your notes." on page TS-10 of this term sheet.

Structuring the Notes

The notes are our debt securities, the return on which is linked to the performance of the Market Measure. The related guarantees are GSG's obligations. As is the case for all of our debt securities, including our market-linked notes, the economic terms of the notes reflect our and GSG's actual or perceived creditworthiness at the time of pricing. The economic terms of the notes are based upon 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 variables will influence the economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date. In addition, the underwriting discount and costs incurred in creating, documenting and marketing the notes will reduce the economic terms of the notes and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date.

At maturity, if not previously automatically called, we are required to pay the Redemption Amount to holders of the notes, which will be calculated based on the performance of the Market Measure and the $10 per unit principal amount. In order to meet these payment obligations, at the time we issue the notes, we have entered into, or expect to enter into, certain hedging arrangements (which may include call options, put options or other derivatives) with GS&Co. or one of our other affiliates. The terms of these hedging arrangements may take into account a number of factors, including our and GSG's creditworthiness, interest rate movements, the volatility of the Market Measure, the tenor of the notes and the tenor of the hedging arrangements. See "Hedging" on page PS-22 in the accompanying product supplement for additional information.

For further information, see "Risk Factors-Valuation- and Market-related Risks" and "-Conflict-related Risks" beginning on page PS-10 and PS-13, respectively, and "Use of Proceeds" on page PS-22 of the accompanying product supplement.
