The specific terms of the Depositary arrangement with respect to any debt securities of a series will be described in the relevant prospectus supplement. We anticipate that the following provisions will apply to all Depositary arrangements.

The accounts to be credited will be designated by the underwriters or agents with respect to the debt securities or by the applicable issuer if the debt securities are offered and sold directly by it.
