Explanatory Note

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-198735) is being filed for the purpose of paying in advance filing fees with respect to an additional $25,000,000,000 initial offering price of securities that may be offered and sold from time to time hereunder and reflecting, in Item 14. “Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution” in Part II, the related registration fees that have been paid with respect thereto. In addition, certain ministerial updates have been made to Item 16. No changes or additions are being made hereby to the prospectuses existing on the date hereof relating to the securities to be issued from time to time by the registrants, which remain a part of the Registration Statement, or any other item in Part II of the Registration Statement, and therefore such existing prospectuses and other items have been omitted. Accordingly, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement shall become effective immediately upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
