Interest Payment Periods:
 
During the Fixed Rate Period, semiannually; during the Floating Rate Period, quarterly.
With respect to an Interest Payment Date during the Floating Rate Period, the period from and including the second most recent Interest Payment Period End-Date (or from and including July 17, 2025 in the case of the first Interest Payment Period during the Floating Rate Period) to but excluding the immediately preceding Interest Payment Period End-Date; provided that (i) the Interest Payment Period with respect to the final Interest Payment Date (i.e., the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026) will be the period from and including the second-to-last Interest Payment Period End-Date to but excluding the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, to but excluding the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 (in each case, the final Interest Payment Period End-Date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026) and (ii) with respect to such final Interest Payment Period, the level of SOFR for each calendar day in the period from and including the Rate Cut-Off Date to but excluding the Maturity Date or redemption date, as applicable, shall be the level of SOFR in respect of such Rate Cut-Off Date


Interest Payment Period End-Dates:
 
With respect to the Floating Rate Period, the 17th of each January, April, July and October, commencing October 2025 and ending on the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, ending on the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026; provided that if any scheduled Interest Payment Period End-Date, other than the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, falls on a day that is not a business day, it will be postponed to the following business day, except that, if that business day would fall in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Period End-Date will be the immediately preceding business day. If the scheduled final Interest Payment Period End-Date (i.e., the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026) falls on a day that is not a business day, the payment of principal and interest will be made on the next succeeding business day, but interest on that payment will not accrue during the period from and after the scheduled final Interest Payment Period End-Date
Interest Payment Dates:
 
With respect to the Fixed Rate Period, each January 17 and July 17, commencing January 17, 2023 to and including July 17, 2025; with respect to the Floating Rate Period, the second business day following each Interest Payment Period End-Date; provided that the Interest Payment Date with respect to the final Interest Payment Period will be the Maturity Date or, if the Issuer elects to redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, the redemption date for such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026. If the scheduled Maturity Date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a business day, the payment of principal and interest will be made on the next succeeding business day, but interest on that payment will not accrue during the period from and after the scheduled Maturity Date or redemption date
Rate Cut-Off Date:
 
The second U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the Maturity Date or redemption date, as applicable
Day Count Convention:
 
During the Fixed Rate Period, 30/360; during the Floating Rate Period, Actual/360
Optional Redemption:
 
Optional Make-Whole Redemption, on or after January 24, 2023 and prior to July 17, 2025, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on at least 5 but not more than 30 days’ prior notice, as described in the below-referenced Prospectus under the heading “Description of Debt Securities—Redemption and Repurchase of Debt Securities—Optional Make-Whole Redemption of Debt Securities,” provided that (A) the make-whole redemption price shall be equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of (a) the present value of the payment of principal on such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 to be redeemed and (b) the present values of the scheduled payments of interest on such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 to be redeemed that would have been payable from the date of redemption to July 17, 2025 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption), each discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate plus 25 basis points, as calculated by the premium calculation agent; plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the redemption date and (B) “comparable treasury issue” means the U.S. Treasury security selected by the premium calculation agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 to be redeemed as if the Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 matured on July 17, 2025 (“remaining term”) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term.

In addition, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026, (i) in whole but not in part, on July 17, 2025 or (ii) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after June 17, 2026, on at least 5 but not more than 30 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 to but excluding the redemption date. For the avoidance of doubt, if Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 are redeemed in part, the determination of accrued and unpaid interest on such Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 (determined using a final Interest Payment Date, final Interest Payment Period End-Date and Rate Cut-Off Date relating to the redemption) shall have no effect on the determination of accrued and unpaid interest on Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 that are not so redeemed. See “Description of Debt Securities – Redemption and Repurchase of Debt Securities – Notice of Redemption” in the below-referenced Prospectus. If the Fixed/Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 are redeemed prior to their stated maturity date, you may have to re-invest the proceeds in a lower interest rate environment.
