1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA

"1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA" means the rate for deposits in USD for a period of 1 month which appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 (or such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service) as of the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date;

"Relevant Time" means 11:00 a.m., London time;

"Interest Determination Date" means the second London Banking Day prior to the first day of the relevant Interest Period; and

"London Banking Day" means a day on which commercial banks are open for general business, including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits, in London.

If such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 (or such other page that may replace that page on that service or a successor service) at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date, then the rate for 1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in USD are offered at the Relevant Time on the Interest Determination Date by five major banks in the London interbank market (the "Reference Banks") as selected by the Calculation Agent, to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of 1 month commencing on the first day of the relevant Interest Period and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in the London interbank market at the Relevant Time.  The Calculation Agent will request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation of its rate.

 

If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for 1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.  If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for 1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first day of the relevant Interest Period for loans in USD to leading European banks for a period of 1 month commencing on the first day of the relevant Interest Period and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in the London interbank market at such time.

 

If no quotation is available or if the Calculation Agent determines in its sole discretion that there is no suitable bank that is prepared to provide the quotes, the Calculation Agent will determine the rate for 1-Month USD-LIBOR-BBA for the Interest Determination Date in question in a manner that it deems commercially reasonable by reference to such additional resources as it deems appropriate.

General Information

Additional Information Regarding the Notes

1.         United States Federal Income Tax Matters

The following supplements the discussion under the "Tax Matters" section of the Prospectus regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the Notes, and is subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth therein.  Any tax disclosure in the Prospectus or this pricing supplement is of a general nature only, is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations and is not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any particular prospective investor.  Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor as to the particular tax consequences to it of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Notes, including the effects of applicable U.S. federal, state, and local tax laws and non-U.S. tax laws and possible changes in tax laws.

The Notes should be treated as variable rate debt instruments that are issued without original issue discount. A United States holder will generally be taxed on interest on the Notes as ordinary income at the time such holder receives the interest or when it accrues, depending on the holder's method of accounting for tax purposes.  Upon the sale or maturity of the Notes, a United States holder should generally recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized by such holder, excluding any amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest (which will be treated as interest payments), and such holder's tax basis in the Notes.  Such gain or loss generally should be capital gain or loss and should be treated as long-term capital gain or loss to the extent the United States holder has held the Notes for more than one year.  Long-term capital gain of individual taxpayers may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation.  The deductibility of capital loss is subject to significant limitations.

Due to a change in law since the date of the Prospectus, the second paragraph of "-Payments of Interest" under the "United States Holders" section should be updated to read as follows: "Interest paid by the Bank on the Notes constitutes income from sources outside the United States and will generally be "passive" income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit."

Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets. Owners of "specified foreign financial assets" with an aggregate value in excess of USD50,000 (and in some circumstances, a higher threshold) may be required to file an information report with respect to such assets with their tax returns.  "Specified foreign financial assets" may include financial accounts maintained by foreign financial institutions, as well as the following, but only if they are held for investment and not held in accounts maintained by financial institutions:  (i) stocks and securities issued by non-United States persons, (ii) financial instruments and contracts that have non-United States issuers or counterparties, and (iii) interests in foreign entities.  Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of this reporting requirement to their ownership of the Notes.

Medicare Tax. A United States holder that is an individual or estate, or a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, is subject to a 3.8% tax (the "Medicare tax") on the lesser of (1) the United States holder's "net investment income" (or "undistributed net investment income" in the case of an estate or trust) for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the United States holder's modified adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals is between USD125,000 and USD250,000, depending on the individual's circumstances).  A holder's net investment income will generally include its interest income and its net gains from the disposition of Notes, unless such interest income or net gains are derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain passive or trading activities). United States holders that are individuals, estates or trusts are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to their income and gains in respect of their investment in the Notes.
