indirectly, in the DTC system.
In addition to this pricing supplement, the following provisions are hereby incorporated into the global master note: the
description of New York business day appearing under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Calculations of Interest on
Debt Securities ­ Business Days" in the accompanying prospectus, the description of the following unadjusted business day
convention appearing under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Calculations of Interest on Debt Securities ­ Business
Day Conventions" in the accompanying prospectus and the section "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Defeasance
and Covenant Defeasance" in the accompanying prospectus.
Day Count Convention
As further described under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer ­ Calculations of Interest on Debt Securities ­
Interest Rates and Interest" in the accompanying prospectus, for each interest period the amount of accrued interest will be
calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the note by an accrued interest factor for the interest period. The accrued interest
factor will be determined by multiplying the per annum interest rate by a factor resulting from the 30/360 (ISDA) day count
convention. The factor is the number of days in the interest period in respect of which payment is being made divided by 360,
calculated on a formula basis as follows:

[360 × (Y2 ­ Y1)] + [30 × (M2 ­ M1)] + (D2 ­


D1)



360

w he re :
"Y1" is the year, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the interest period falls;
"Y2" is the year, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the interest period
falls;
"M1" is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the first day of the interest period
falls;
"M2" is the calendar month, expressed as a number, in which the day immediately following the last day included in the
interest period falls;
"D1" is the first calendar day, expressed as a number, of the interest period, unless such number would be 31, in which
case D1 will be 30; and
"D2" is the calendar day, expressed as a number, immediately following the last day included in the interest period, unless
such number would be 31 and D1 is greater than 29, in which case D2 will be 30.
When We Can Redeem the Notes
We will be permitted to redeem the notes at our option before their stated maturity, as described below. The notes will not be
entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund ­ that is, we will not deposit money on a regular basis into any separate custodial account
to repay your note. In addition, you will not be entitled to require us to buy your note from you before its stated maturity.
We will have the right to redeem the notes at our option, in whole but not in part, on each February 20, May 20, August 20
and November 20 on or after November 20, 2018, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount plus
accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the redemption date. We will provide not less than five business days' prior notice in
the manner described under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer --

PS-5
Table of Contents
Notices" in the attached prospectus. If the redemption notice is given and funds deposited as required, then interest will cease to
accrue on and after the redemption date on the notes. If any redemption date is not a business day, we will pay the redemption
price on the next business day without any interest or other payment due to the delay.
What are the Tax Consequences of the Notes
You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth under "United States Taxation" in the accompanying
prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The following discussion summarizes certain of the material U.S.
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/886982/000119312517347707/d493194d424b2.htm[11/20/2017 11:47:06 AM]


Pricing Supplement No. 76 dated November 16, 2017
federal income tax consequences of the purchase, beneficial ownership, and disposition of each of the notes. This summary
supplements the section "United States Taxation" in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus
and is subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth therein.
As of the original issue date, the notes should not be treated as issued with "original issue discount" ("OID") despite the fact
that the interest rate on the notes is scheduled to step-up over the term of the notes because Treasury regulations generally deem
an issuer to exercise a call option in a manner that minimizes the yield on the debt instrument for purposes of determining whether
a debt instrument is issued with OID. The yield on the notes would be minimized if we call the notes immediately before the
increase in the interest rate on November 20, 2020 and therefore the notes should be treated as maturing on such date for OID
purposes. This assumption is made solely for purposes of determining whether the notes are issued with OID for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, and is not an indication of our intention to call or not to call the notes at any time. If we do not call the notes
prior to the increase in the interest rate then, solely for OID purposes, the notes will be deemed to be reissued at their adjusted
issue price on November 20, 2020. This deemed issuance should not give rise to taxable gain or loss to holders. The same
analysis would apply to the increase in the interest rate on November 20, 2021 and May 20, 2022. If the notes are not called on
the interest payment date occurring on either November 20, 2021 or May 20, 2022, then, because the period between the interest
payment date on November 20, 2021 and May 20, 2022, respectively, and the stated maturity date of the notes is one year or less,
the notes, upon their deemed reissuance on either November 20, 2021 or May 20, 2022, could be treated as short-term debt
securities for OID purposes (but not for purposes of determining the holding period of your notes). For a discussion of the U.S.
federal income tax consequences to a U.S. holder of owning short-term debt securities, please review the section entitled "United
States Taxation ­ Taxation of Debt Securities ­ United States Holders ­ Short-Term Debt Securities" in the accompanying
prospectus.
Under this approach, and subject to the discussion regarding short-term debt securities, interest on a note will be taxable to a
U.S. holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. holder's normal method of
accounting for tax purposes (regardless of whether we call the notes). Upon the disposition of a note by sale, exchange,
redemption or retirement (i.e., if we exercise our right to call the notes or otherwise) or other disposition, a U.S. holder will
generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between (i) the amount realized on the disposition (other
than amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest, which would be treated as such) and (ii) the U.S. holder's adjusted tax
basis in the note. A U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in a note generally will equal the cost of the note (net of accrued interest) to
the U.S. holder. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations.
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 FATCA withholding. However, according to published guidance,
the withholding tax described above will not apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale, exchange, redemption or other
disposition of the notes made before January 1, 2019.
