 assumes that you purchased the Notes for
cash in the original issuance at the stated issue price and does not address other circumstances specific to you, including consequences
that may arise due to any other investments relating to an Underlying. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effect any such
circumstances may have on the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your ownership of a Note.

Although not free from doubt, in the opinion of our special tax counsel,
Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, the Notes will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as debt, and the remainder of this discussion
so assumes. Based on current market conditions, we intend to treat the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “contingent
payment debt instruments,” as described in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders
— CPDI Securities” in the accompanying product supplement. Under this treatment, the Notes will be subject to special original
issue discount (“OID”) provisions set out in Treasury regulations, under which, regardless of your method of tax accounting
for U.S. federal income tax purposes, you generally will be required to accrue interest income in each year on a constant yield to maturity
basis at the “comparable yield,” as determined by us, adjusted upward or downward to reflect the difference, if any, between
the actual and projected payments on the Notes during the year. Upon a taxable disposition of a Note, you generally will recognize taxable
income or loss equal to the difference between the amount received from the taxable disposition and your adjusted basis in the Note. You
generally must treat any income realized as interest income and any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of previous interest inclusions,
with the balance treated as capital loss, the deductibility of which is subject to limitations.

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. 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
