Our treatment of the Notes as contingent payment debt instruments generally
will be binding on you but not the IRS, and, as noted above, is based on current market conditions. Accordingly, our final determination
regarding the treatment of the Notes will be made based on market conditions as of the pricing date and is therefore subject to change.
You should consult your tax adviser regarding possible alternative treatments, including whether the Notes could be treated as issued
with OID but not subject to the contingent payment debt instrument rules, which treatment could be adverse to you.

Non-U.S. Holders.If you are a non-U.S. holder (as defined in
the accompanying product supplement), we do not believe that you should be required to provide an IRS Form W-8 in order to avoid 30% U.S.
withholding tax with respect to interest payments on the Notes, although the IRS could challenge this position. However, you should in
any event expect to be required to provide an appropriate IRS Form W-8 or other documentation in order to establish an exemption from
backup withholding, as described under the heading “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders”
in the accompanying product supplement.

As discussed under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences —
Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders — Withholding Under Section 871(m) of the Code” in the accompanying product supplement,
Section 871(m) of the Internal Revenue Code and Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder (“Section 871(m)”) generally
impose a 30% withholding tax on dividend equivalents paid or deemed paid to non-U.S. holders with respect to certain financial instruments
linked to U.S. equities or indices that include U.S. equities. Section 871(m) provides certain exceptions to this withholding
regime, including for instruments linked to certain broad-based indices that meet requirements set forth in the applicable Treasury regulations,
generally as of the first business day of the calendar year in which the relevant issuance is priced. In addition, the Treasury
regulations, as modified by an IRS notice, exempt financial instruments issued prior to January 1, 2027 that do not have a “delta”
of one. Based on certain determinations made by us, we expect that Section 871(m) will not apply to the Notes with regard to
non-U.S. holders.
