explanation of the significance of ratings may be obtained from the rating agencies. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on
such material and information, and such of their own investigations, studies and assumptions, as they deem appropriate. The rating of
the Notes should be evaluated independently from similar ratings of other securities. A credit rating of a security is not a recommendation
to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to review, revision, suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning
rating agency.</P>
