ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE NOTES
Book-Entry System
We wil issue the notes as a master global note registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee. The sale of the notes wil settle in immediately available funds through DTC. You wil not be
permitted to withdraw the notes from DTC except in the limited situations described in the accompanying prospectus under "Legal Ownership and Book-Entry Issuance -- What Is a Global Security? --
Holder's Option to Obtain a Non-Global Security; Special Situations When a Global Security Wil Be Terminated". Investors may hold interests in a master global note through organizations that
participate, directly or indirectly, in the DTC system.
In addition to this pricing supplement, the fol owing provisions are hereby incorporated into the global master note: the description of the Actual/360 (ISDA) day count convention appearing under
"Description of Notes We May Offer ­ Interest Rates ­ Floating Rate Notes" in the accompanying prospectus supplement, the descriptions of New York business day and London business day appearing

convention appearing under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Payment Mechanics for Debt Securities ­ Business Day Conventions" in the accompanying prospectus.
Survivor's Option to Request Repayment
Fol owing the death of the beneficial owner of a note, so long as that note was owned by that beneficial owner or the estate of that beneficial owner for at least six months prior to the request, if
requested by the authorized representative of the beneficial owner of that note (subject to the limitations described below), we agree to redeem any notes prior to the stated maturity unless the notes:


·
have been previously redeemed or otherwise repaid, or

·
have been declared due and payable before their stated maturity by reason of an event of default under the 2008 Indenture, as more ful y described in the accompanying prospectus

under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer -- Default, Remedies and Waiver of Default".
Upon the valid exercise of the option to request repayment described in the preceding paragraph (Survivor's Option) and the proper tender of that note for repayment (subject to the limitations
described below), we wil redeem that note, in whole or in part (but in amounts of not less than $1,000), at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the note plus any unpaid interest accrued to
(but excluding) the date of repayment.
Incapital LLC has advised that it intends to make a market in the notes. Depending on market conditions, including changes in interest rates, and our creditworthiness, the value of the notes may
be greater than their principal amount plus any unpaid interest accrued. Accordingly, the authorized representative should contact Incapital LLC to determine the market price of the notes and
should otherwise carefully consider whether to sell the notes to Incapital LLC or another market participant rather than redeeming the notes at the principal amount plus accrued interest
pursuant to a request for redemption.
To be valid, the Survivor's Option must be exercised by or on behalf of the person who has:

·
authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial owner of the note, including, without limitation, the personal representative or executor of the deceased beneficial owner or the

surviving joint owner with the deceased beneficial owner, under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, and

·
the right to sel , transfer or otherwise dispose of an interest in a note and the right to receive the proceeds from the note, as wel as the principal and interest payable to the holder of the

note.
The fol owing wil be deemed the death of a beneficial owner of a note, and the entire principal amount of the note so held wil be subject to redemption by us upon request (with the limitations
described below):

death of a person holding a beneficial ownership interest in a note as a joint tenant or tenant by the entirety with another person, a tenant in common with the deceased holder's spouse or

a tenant in common with a person other than such deceased person's spouse;

·
death of a person who at the time of his or her death was a beneficiary of a revocable or irrevocable trust that holds a beneficial ownership interest in a note may, in the discretion of the

Trustee, be deemed the death of a beneficial owner of that note, if such beneficial trust interest can be established to the satisfaction of us and the Trustee; and

·
death of a person who, at the time of his or her death, was entitled to substantial y al of the beneficial ownership interests in a note regardless of whether that beneficial owner was the

registered holder of that note, if entitlement to those interests can be established to the satisfaction of us and the Trustee.
In addition, a beneficial ownership interest wil be deemed to exist:

·
in typical cases of nominee ownership, ownership under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, community property or other joint ownership arrangements

between a husband and wife; and


·
in custodial and trust arrangements where one person has all of the beneficial ownership interests in the applicable note at the time of his or her death.
We have the discretionary right to limit the aggregate principal amount of notes as to which exercises of the Survivor's Option shall be accepted by us from authorized representatives:

·
of all deceased beneficial owners in any calendar year to an amount equal to 2% of the principal amount of al outstanding notes offered by this pricing supplement as of the end of the

most recent calendar year (two percent aggregate limitation); and


·
of any individual deceased beneficial owner of notes to $250,000 in any calendar year ($250,000 limitation).
In addition, we wil not permit the exercise of the Survivor's Option except in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
We may, at our option and pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option, redeem interests of any deceased beneficial owner in the notes in any calendar year in excess of the $250,000
limitation. Any optional redemption by us of this kind, to the extent it exceeds the $250,000 limitation for any deceased beneficial owner, wil not be included in the computation of the two percent
aggregate limitation for redemption of the notes for that or any other calendar year.
We may also, at our option and pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option, redeem interests of deceased beneficial owners in the notes in any calendar year in an aggregate principal
amount exceeding the two percent aggregate limitation. Any optional redemption by us of this kind, to the extent it exceeds the two percent aggregate limitation, wil not be considered in calculating the
two percent aggregate limitation for any other calendar year.
Furthermore, any optional redemption with respect to a deceased beneficial owner's interest in the notes is inapplicable with respect to any other deceased beneficial owner's interest in the notes.
In other words, we may waive any applicable limitations with respect to a deceased beneficial owner but not make the same or similar waivers with respect to other deceased beneficial owners.
Each election to exercise the Survivor's Option wil be accepted in the order that elections are received by the Trustee, except for any note the acceptance of which would contravene either the
two percent aggregate limitation or the $250,000 limitation. Upon any determination by us to redeem notes in excess of the $250,000 limitation or the two percent aggregate limitation, notes wil be
redeemed in the order of receipt of redemption requests by the Trustee. Each tendered note that is not accepted in any calendar year due to the application of either the two percent aggregate limitation
or the $250,000 limitation wil be deemed to be tendered in the fol owing calendar year in the order in which all such notes were original y tendered.

Notes accepted for repayment through the exercise of the Survivor's Option wil be redeemed on the first interest payment date that occurs 60 or more calendar days after the date of the
acceptance. For example, if the acceptance date of a note tendered through a valid exercise of the Survivor's Option is November 1, 2014, interest on the notes is paid quarterly on February 15, May
15, August 15 and November 15, we would normal y, at our option, repay that note on the interest payment date occurring on February 15, 2015 because the November 15, 2014 interest payment date
would occur less than 60 days from the date of acceptance. Any redemption request may be withdrawn by the person(s) presenting the request upon delivery of a written request for withdrawal given by
the participant on behalf of the person(s) to the Trustee not less than 30 days before the redemption date. If a note tendered through a valid exercise of the Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Trustee
wil deliver a notice by first-class mail to the participant through whom the note was tendered that states the reason that note has not been accepted for redemption.
With respect to notes represented by a master global note (such as these notes), DTC or its nominee is the depositary and is treated as the holder of the notes and the institution that has an
account with the depositary of the notes is referred to as the "participant".
To obtain redemption pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option for a note, the deceased beneficial owner's authorized representative must provide the fol owing items to the participant in DTC
through which the beneficial interest in the note is held by the deceased beneficial owner:

·
a written request for redemption signed by the authorized representative of the deceased beneficial owner with the signature guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national

securities exchange or of the Financial Institution Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States and a
written instruction to notify the Trustee of the authorized representative's desire to obtain redemption pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option;


·
appropriate evidence satisfactory to us and the Trustee:

(a)
that the deceased was the beneficial owner of the note at the time of death and his or her interest in the note was owned by the deceased beneficial owner or his or her estate

for at least six months prior to the request for redemption,


(b)
that the death of the beneficial owner has occurred,


(c)
of the date of death of the beneficial owner, and


(d)
that the representative has authority to act on behalf of the beneficial owner;


·
if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement;

·
tax waivers and any other instruments or documents that we or the Trustee reasonably require in order to establish the validity of the beneficial ownership of the note and the claimant's

entitlement to payment;

·
any additional information we or the Trustee reasonably require to evidence satisfaction of any conditions to the exercise of the Survivor's Option or to document beneficial ownership or

authority to make the election and to cause the redemption of the note; and

·
if the interest in the note is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial owner, a certificate satisfactory to us and the Trustee from the nominee attesting to the deceased's beneficial

ownership of such note.
After the representative provides the information to the participant, the participant wil then deliver each of these items to the Trustee, and to Goldman, Sachs & Co. in its capacity as administrator
of the Survivor's Option on our behalf, together with evidence satisfactory to us and the Trustee from the participant stating that it represents the deceased beneficial owner. The participant wil then need
to deliver to the Trustee a request for redemption substantial y in the form attached as Appendix A to this pricing supplement.
Al questions regarding the eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option wil be determined by us, in our sole discretion, which determination wil be final and binding on all parties.
Subject to arrangements with the depositary, payment for interests in the notes to be redeemed wil be made to the depositary in the aggregate principal amount specified in the redemption requests
submitted

attesting to the deceased's ownership of a beneficial interest in the note must also be delivered.
Additional Disclosure About Our Relationship with the Trustee
The Bank of New York Mel on is initial y serving as trustee for the indenture under which the notes are being issued. Affiliates of the trustee have underwritten our securities from time to time in the
past and may underwrite our securities from time to time in the future. The trustee may have to resign if a default occurs with respect to the notes within one year after any offering of our securities
underwritten by an affiliate of the trustee, such as BNY Mel on Capital Markets, LLC, since the trustee would likely be considered to have a conflicting interest for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act of
1939. In that event, except in very limited circumstances, the trustee would be required to resign as trustee under the indenture under which the notes are being issued and we would be required to
appoint a successor trustee, unless the default is cured or waived within 90 days. In addition, the trustee can resign for any reason with 60 days notice, and we would be required to appoint a successor
trustee. If the trustee resigns fol owing a default or for any other reason, it may be difficult to identify and appoint a qualified successor trustee. The trustee wil remain the trustee under the indenture until
a successor is appointed. During the period of time until a successor is appointed, the trustee wil have both (a) duties to noteholders under the indenture and (b) a conflicting interest under the indenture
for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act. In the accompanying prospectus dated September 19, 2011 under "Our Relationship with the Trustee," we describe certain other circumstances in which the
trustee may have to resign due to a conflict of interest.
United States Federal Income Tax Consequences
Please see the discussion under "United States Taxation" in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. Final regulations released by the U.S. Department of the
Treasury on January 17, 2013 state that Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) withholding (as described in "United States Taxation -- Taxation of Debt Securities -- Foreign Account Tax
Compliance" in the accompanying prospectus) wil generally not apply to obligations that are issued prior to January 1, 2014; therefore, the notes wil not be subject to FATCA withholding.
