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

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
general y not apply to obligations that are issued prior to January 1, 2014; therefore, the notes wil not be subject to FATCA withholding.
