* A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

** We expect to deliver the Debentures against payment therefor in New York City on or about May 16, 2016, which will be the fifth business day following the date of the prospectus supplement and of the pricing of the Debentures. Under Rule 15c6-l of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Debentures on the pricing date or the next succeeding business day will be required by virtue of the fact that the Debentures initially will settle in five business days (T+5) to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent failed settlement.
