ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE NOTES
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 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 here:
"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 March 12,
June 12, September 12 and December 12 on or after June 12, 2021, 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.
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 June
12, 2024 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 June 12, 2024. This deemed issuance should not give
rise to taxable gain or loss to holders. The same analysis would apply to the increases in the interest rate on
June 12, 2027 and June 12, 2030. If the notes are not called on the interest payment date occurring on June
12, 2030, then, because the period between the interest payment date on June 12, 2030 and the stated
maturity date of the notes is one year or less, the notes, upon their deemed reissuance on June 12, 2030,
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). 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 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 the FATCA withholding rules. Pursuant to recently proposed regulations, the Treasury Department
has indicated its intent to eliminate the requirements under FATCA of withholding on gross proceeds from the
sale, exchange, maturity or other disposition of relevant financial instruments. The Treasury Department has
indicated that taxpayers may rely on these proposed regulations pending their finalization.
