Modification of Prospectus Supplement, dated July 27, 2018

 

The Prospectus Supplement, dated July 27, 2018, is modified as follows:

 

(1)                                 U.S. Tax Considerations:  The text under “U.S. Tax Considerations” summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a beneficial owner of a note.  That text is amended as follows:

 

I.                                        Insert the following text after the introductory paragraphs:

 

Qualified Reopening of 3.350% Medium-Term Notes Due 2023

 

Notes issued as part of the “qualified reopening” of a previous issue of notes are treated as part of the original issue and, consequently, are deemed to have the same issue date and the same issue price as the original notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is expected that this offering of the 3.350% Medium-Term Notes Due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) will meet the requirements for a “qualified reopening” of the initial offering of the 2023 Notes under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations and therefore that the 2023 Notes issued in this offering will have the same issue date and same issue price as the original 2023 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

Qualified Reopening of 3.800% Medium-Term Notes Due 2028

 

Notes issued as part of the “qualified reopening” of a previous issue of notes are treated as part of the original issue and, consequently, are deemed to have the same issue date and the same issue price as the original notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. It is expected that this offering of the 3.800% Medium-Term Notes Due 2028 (the “2028 Notes”) will meet the requirements for a “qualified reopening” of the initial offering of the 2028 Notes under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations and therefore that the 2028 Notes issued in this offering will have the same issue date and same issue price as the original 2028 Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
