Optional Redemption
The 2019 Floating Rate Notes are not subject to optional redemption.
The 2019 Notes will be redeemable before their maturity, in whole or in part, at our option at any time, at a “make-whole” redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2019 Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to the 2019 Notes, the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 2019 Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such 2019 Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Calculation Agent obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Calculation Agent after consultation with us.
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Barclays Capital Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated or their respective affiliates and two other primary U.S. Government securities dealer selected by us; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing or their affiliates cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States, we will substitute another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. Government securities dealer.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Calculation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. New York time on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of 2019 Notes to be redeemed. Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the 2019 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
Further Issues
We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the registered holders of the Notes, create and issue additional notes having the same ranking, interest rate basis, number of basis points to be added to or subtracted from the related interest rate basis, maturity and other terms as the Notes, as applicable, except for (1) the issue date, (2) the issue price and (3) the first interest payment date. Additional notes will be considered part of the same series of notes as the Notes and any of our other Medium-Term Notes, Series B previously issued or issued in the future. We also may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the registered holders of the Notes, create and issue additional debt securities under the indenture ranking equally with the Notes and our other Medium-Term Notes, Series B.
Book-Entry Notes and Form
Each tranche of the Notes will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered global notes (the “Global Notes”) which will be deposited with, or on behalf of, The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (the
“Depository”) and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the Depository’s nominee. Notes in definitive form will not be issued, unless the Depository discontinues providing its services as depository with respect to the Global Notes at any time and a successor depository is not obtained or unless we so determine in our sole discretion. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct or indirect participants in the Depository, including Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme.

The Notes will not have an established trading market when issued. The Underwriters may from time to time make a market in the Notes but are not obligated to do so and may cease at any time. Neither we nor the Underwriters can assure you that any trading market for the Notes will be liquid.
The Notes sold by the Underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the applicable public offering prices set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement. Any Notes sold by the Underwriters to dealers may be sold at the applicable public offering prices less a concession not to exceed 0.200% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes or the 2019 Floating Rate Notes, as applicable. The Underwriters may allow, and dealers may reallow, a concession not to exceed 0.125% of the principal amount of the 2019 Notes or the 2019 Floating Rate Notes, as applicable, on sales to other dealers. After the initial offering of the Notes to the public, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., on behalf of the Underwriters, may change the public offering prices and concessions of the Notes. The offering of the Notes by the Underwriters is subject to receipt and acceptance and subject to the Underwriters’ right to reject any order in whole or in part.
In connection with the offering, Barclays Capital Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, on behalf of the Underwriters, are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the prices of the Notes. These transactions may consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the prices of the Notes. If the Underwriters create a short position in the Notes in connection with the offering by selling more Notes than they have purchased from us, then the Underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing Notes in the open market. In general, purchases of Notes for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the prices of the Notes to be higher than in the absence of these purchases. The Underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time. Neither we nor the Underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the prices of the Notes.
We may enter into hedging transactions in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including forwards, futures, options, interest rate or exchange rate swaps and repurchase or reverse repurchase transactions with, or arranged by, any of the Underwriters or an affiliate of that Underwriter. The applicable Underwriter and its affiliates may receive compensation, trading gain or other benefits in connection with these hedging transactions and the hedging transactions described below.
Each of the Underwriters has severally agreed that it will not offer or sell any of the Notes, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to, or for the benefit of, any resident of Japan (which term as used herein means any person resident in Japan, including any corporation or other entity organized under the laws of Japan and any branch or other office in Japan of a
corporation or other entity organized under the laws of any foreign state), or to others for re-offering or resale, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to, or for the benefit of, a resident of Japan.
The Underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Certain of the Underwriters and their respective affiliates have, from time to time, provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, commercial banking and other services for the issuer in the ordinary course of business, for which they received or will receive in the future customary fees and commissions.
In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the Underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. Certain of the Underwriters or their affiliates that have a lending relationship with us or our affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those Underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to us and our affiliates consistent with their customary risk management policies. A typical hedging strategy would include these Underwriters or their affiliates hedging such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities or those of our affiliates, including potentially the Notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Notes offered hereby. The Underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
We have agreed to indemnify the several agents against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of these liabilities. We have also agreed to reimburse each of the Underwriters for certain expenses.
