x                                  Other:  The Notes will be redeemable in whole or in part, at any time prior to Stated Maturity at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(1)                                  100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes to the redemption date; or

(2)                                  the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (not including any portion of payments of interest accrued as of the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on those Notes to the redemption date.

For purposes of the determination of the redemption price, the following definitions shall apply:

“Business Day” means any day that is not a day on which banking institutions in New York City are authorized or required by law or regulation to close.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be used, 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 of the Notes to be redeemed.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, the average of the available Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that redemption date.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means four primary U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City, New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), which shall include Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue for the Notes to be redeemed, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the redemption date.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portion of the Notes called for redemption.

United States Tax Considerations:

The text under “United States Tax Considerations” in the Prospectus Supplement, dated September 28, 2009, summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a holder of a note that is a U.S. holder.  The eighth paragraph of that text is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

Except as discussed below with respect to market discount and foreign currency gain or loss, gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder on the sale, exchange or retirement of a note generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder has held the note for more than one year at the time of disposition, and otherwise will be short-term capital gain or loss.  The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 provides preferential treatment under certain circumstances for net long-term capital gains recognized by individual investors.  Net long-term capital gains recognized by an individual U.S. holder generally will be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15% (20% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2012) for notes held more than one year.  The ability of U.S. holders to offset capital losses against ordinary income is limited.
