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. 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”
