NOTE: Federal income tax law generally requires paying agents making payments on securities to withhold a percentage of such remittance from holders who have failed to furnish the paying agent with a valid taxpayer identification number (either a social security or employer identification number, as applicable). To avoid the imposition of that withholding, Holders must submit an IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8, as applicable, to the paying agent stating a valid taxpayer identification number when their Notes subject to redemption are redeemed.
