TAX CONSIDERATIONS</div>

You should review carefully
the section of the accompanying prospectus supplement entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation.” The discussion below
applies to you only if you are an initial purchaser of notes acquiring them for their Issue Price as stated on the cover of this document.
Although not free from doubt, in the opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP (“DPW”), the
notes will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as debt, and the remainder of this discussion so assumes. Based on information
received from us, DPW believes that the notes should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “variable rate debt instruments”
that provide for a single fixed rate followed by a qualified floating rate (“QFR”).

In order to determine the
amount of qualified stated interest (“QSI”) and original issue discount ("OID") in respect of the
notes, an equivalent fixed rate debt instrument must be constructed. The equivalent fixed rate debt instrument is constructed in the following
manner: (i) first, the initial fixed rate is converted to a QFR that would preserve the fair market value of the notes, and (ii) second,
each QFR (including the QFR determined under (i) above) is converted to a fixed rate substitute (which will generally be the value of
that QFR as of the Settlement Date of the notes). Under the applicable Treasury regulations, the notes generally will be treated as providing
for QSI at a rate equal to the lowest rate of interest in effect at any time under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument, and any
interest under the equivalent fixed rate debt instrument in excess of that rate generally will be treated as part of the stated redemption
price at maturity and, therefore, as potentially giving rise to OID. Based on the application of these rules to the notes, we expect that
the notes will not be treated as issued with OID, and the remainder of this discussion so assumes. You generally will be required to include
any interest in income in accordance with your regular method of tax accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. You should consult
your tax adviser regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as any tax consequences arising
