The 2026 Fixed Rate 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 Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 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 accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.

 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to the Notes to be redeemed, the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 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 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 BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC and a primary U.S. Government securities dealer selected by Lloyds Securities Inc., or their respective affiliates; 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 City time, on the third Business Day preceding 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 Notes to be redeemed.

Further Issues

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.

No series of Notes will have an established trading market when issued. The Underwriters may from time to time make a market in the Notes of any series 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 (i) 0.135% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, (ii) 0.135% of the principal amount of the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes and (iii) 0.200% of the principal amount of the 2026 Fixed Rate Notes. The Underwriters may allow, and dealers may reallow, a concession not to exceed (i) 0.080% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes, (ii) 0.080% of the principal amount of the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes and (iii) 0.150% of the principal amount of the 2026 Fixed Rate Notes. After the initial offering of the Notes to the public, Citigroup Global Markets 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, BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Lloyds Securities Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and TD Securities (USA) LLC, 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.

 

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

 

PS-5

 

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 the 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.

 

Selling Restrictions

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.
