 use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain such listing and satisfy the requirements for such continued listing as long as the notes are outstanding. We have been advised by the underwriters that they presently intend to make a market in the notes of each series after completion of the offering. However, they are under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without any notice. We cannot assure the liquidity of the trading market for any series of notes or that any active public market for the notes will develop. If any active public trading market for the notes of all series does not develop, the market prices and liquidity of such notes may be adversely affected.

#### Price Stabilization and Short Positions
In connection with the issue of the notes, Citigroup Global Markets Europe AG (in this capacity, the “stabilizing manager”) (or any person acting on behalf of the stabilizing manager) may over-allot the notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market prices of the notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. These transactions may include short sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the stabilizing manager of a greater principal amount of notes than they are required to purchase in this offering. The stabilizing manager must close out any short position by purchasing notes in the open market. A short position is more likely to be created if the stabilizing manager is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the prices of the notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market prices of the notes while this offering is still in progress.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the stabilizing manager’s purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market prices of the notes or preventing or retarding a decline in the market prices of the notes. As a result, the prices of the notes may be higher than the prices that might otherwise exist in the open market.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of the notes. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the underwriters will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.
