* Because we are unable to determine the issue price of the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which could be as low as $991.75 per note, we intend to treat the notes as having an issue price of $991.75 for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Assuming this treatment is correct, the notes will be treated as having original issue discount, the tax consequences of which are described in the accompanying product supplement. If you purchase a note for an amount greater than $991.75, you should read the section “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences — Acquisition Premium and Amortizable Bond Premium” in the accompanying product supplement.

** Notwithstanding what is provided in the accompanying product supplement, the Interest Payment Dates will be the 24 th day of every sixth month, beginning on May 24, 2018 and ending on the Maturity Date.
