Determination of the U.S. Treasury Rate: |
The U.S. Treasury Rate shall be determined by The Bank of New York Mellon as calculation agent (the Calculation Agent).
U.S. Treasury Rate means, with respect to the reset fixed rate period, the rate per annum equal to: (1) the arithmetic average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity for the maturity of one year (Yields) for the five consecutive New York Business Days (as defined below) immediately prior to the Reset Determination Date based on information appearing in the statistical release designated H.15 (or any successor publication that reports Yields) most recently published by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Reset Determination Date; provided that if the Yield is not available through such release (or any successor publication) for any relevant New York Business Day, then the arithmetic average will be determined based on the Yields for the remaining New York Business Days during the five New York Business Day period described above (provided further that if the Yield is available for only a single New York Business Day during such five New York Business Day period, then U.S. Treasury Rate will mean the single-day Yield for such day); or (2) if no information is available to determine the U.S. Treasury Rate in accordance with the method set forth in (1) above by using the Yield for at least a single New York Business Day during the five New York Business Day period described above, then the annualized yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue (as defined below) calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price (as defined below) as of the Reset Determination Date.
If the U.S. Treasury Rate cannot be determined, for whatever reason, as described under (1) or (2) above, U.S. Treasury Rate means the rate per annum equal to the last reported Yield, as determined by the Calculation Agent, based on information appearing in the statistical release designated H.15 (or any successor publication that reports Yields) last published by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve System as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Reset Determination Date.
For purposes of determining the U.S. Treasury Rate, New York Business Day means a day which is not a day on which banking institutions in New York are authorized by law or regulation to close, regardless of whether the over-the-counter market for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities is open or closed. | |
Comparable Treasury Issue means, with respect to the reset fixed rate period, the U.S. Treasury security selected by the Company (and notified to the Calculation Agent) with a maturity date on or about (but not more than 30 calendar days before or after) the maturity date for the Notes and that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars and having a maturity of one year; provided, however, that the selection of the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be at the sole discretion and judgement of the Company, and that such determination shall be final and conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Calculation Agent, the trustee, the paying agent and the holders of the Notes. |
2
Comparable Treasury Price means, with respect to the Reset Determination Date, (i) the arithmetic average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined below) for the Comparable Treasury Issue as of the Reset Determination Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of all such quotations, or (iii) if fewer than two such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations are received, then the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation as quoted by a Reference Treasury Dealer (as defined below). | ||
Reference Treasury Dealer means each of up to five banks selected by the Company (and notified to the Calculation Agent), or the affiliates of such banks, which are (i) primary U.S. Treasury securities dealers, and their respective successors, or (ii) market makers in pricing corporate bond issues denominated in U.S. dollars; provided, however, that the selection of the Reference Treasury Dealers shall be at the sole discretion and judgement of the Company, and that such determination shall be final and conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Calculation Agent, the trustee, the paying agent and the holders of the Notes. | ||
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Calculation Agent, of the bid and asked prices quoted to the Company (and notified to the Calculation Agent) by such Reference Treasury Dealer for the Comparable Treasury Issue, expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount, approximately at 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), on the Reset Determination Date. | ||
Optional Redemption: | The Company may at its option and in its sole discretion redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, on the date that is one year prior to the Maturity Date, subject to the prior confirmation of the Financial Services Agency of Japan (if such confirmation is required under Japanese banking laws and regulations then in effect), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. | |
