We estimate that we will spend approximately $ for printing, rating agency fees, trustee and legal fees and other expenses related to this offering. The notes are new issues of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for any series of the notes to be listed on any securities exchange or to arrange for the notes to be quoted on any quotation system. S-26

The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the notes. However,
they are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time in their sole discretion. Therefore, we cannot assure you that a liquid trading market will develop for the notes, that you will be able to sell your notes at a
particular time or that the prices that you receive when you sell will be favorable.

In connection with the issue of the notes, Mizuho
Securities USA LLC (in this capacity, the “Stabilizing Manager”) (or persons acting on behalf of the Stabilizing Manager) may over-allot notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the notes at a level
higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilizing Manager (or persons acting on behalf of the Stabilizing Manager) will undertake any stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or
after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the final terms of the offer of the notes is made, and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue of the notes and 60 days after the
date of the allotment of the notes. Such stabilization shall be carried out
