Book-Entry System
We will issue the notes as a master global note registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee. The sale of the notes will settle in
immediately available funds through DTC. You will 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 Will 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 following provisions are hereby incorporated into the global master note: the description
of the 30/360 day count convention appearing under "Description of Debt Securities We May Offer -- Calculations of Interest on Debt
Securities -- Interest Rates and Interest" in the accompanying prospectus, 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.
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 28, May 28, August 28 and
November 28 on or after May 28, 2016, 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 -- 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. 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.
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/886982/000119312515201977/d930712d424b2.htm[5/27/2015 5:07:44 PM]

Pricing Supplement No. 3726 dated May 22, 2015
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 May 28, 2021 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 May 28, 2021. 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
May 28, 2025 and May 28, 2026. If the notes are not called on the interest payment date occurring on May 28, 2026 then, because
the period between the interest payment date on May 28, 2026 and the stated maturity date of the notes is one year or less, the
notes, upon their deemed reissuance on May 28, 2026, 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 above 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).

PS-4
Table of Contents
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 final Treasury regulations, 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, 2017.

Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Incapital LLC that they may make a market in the notes. Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Incapital LLC are not
obligated to do so and may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the
trading market for the notes.
The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. has agreed to indemnify the several underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933.
Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have in the past provided, and may in the future from time to time provide,
investment banking and general financing and banking services to The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its affiliates, for which they
have in the past received, and may in the future receive, customary fees. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and its affiliates have in the
past provided, and may in the future from time to time provide, similar services to the underwriters and their affiliates on customary
terms and for customary fees. Goldman, Sachs & Co., one of the underwriters, is an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. Please
