offering and other matters relating to us and our financial condition. The second part is the accompanying prospectus, which gives more general information about securities we may offer from time to time, some of which does not apply to the notes
that we are offering. The description of the terms of the notes contained in this prospectus supplement supplements the description under &#147;Description of Debt Securities&#148; in the accompanying prospectus, and to the extent it is inconsistent

this prospectus supplement differs from information in the accompanying prospectus, you should rely on the information in this prospectus supplement. </P>

discontinue any market making at any time at their sole discretion. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance as to the liquidity of, or trading markets for, any series of notes. </P>

that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the notes. Specifically, the underwriters may overallot in connection with the offering of the notes, creating a syndicate short position. In addition, the underwriters may bid for, and
purchase, notes in the open market to cover syndicate short positions or to stabilize the price of the notes. Finally, the underwriters may reclaim selling concessions allowed for distributing the notes in the offering of the notes, if the
underwriters repurchase previously distributed notes in syndicate covering transactions, stabilization transactions or otherwise. Any of these activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of the notes above independent market levels. The
underwriters are not required to engage in any of these activities, may end any of them at any time and must bring them to an end after a limited period. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of
investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities
may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. If any of the underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with us, certain of those underwriters or affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those
underwriters may hedge, their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. Typically, these underwriters and their affiliates would hedge such exposure by entering into transactions which consist of either the
purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities, including potentially the notes offered hereby. Any such credit default swaps or short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the notes offered
hereby. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they
acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the
underwriters and their affiliates may have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking and/or investment banking transactions with us and our affiliates for which they have in the past received, and may in the future receive,
customary fees. Affiliates of certain of the underwriters are lenders under existing credit agreements with certain of our subsidiaries. </P>

this prospectus supplement and of the pricing of the notes. Under Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">15c6-1</FONT> under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to
any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on any date prior to one business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes are initially expected to settle in three business
days (T+2), to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The aggregate proceeds to us are set forth on

reference in this prospectus. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other risk factors and information we include or incorporate by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying
supplement, including information contained in our filings with the SEC after the date of this prospectus. The supplement applicable to each type or series of securities we offer may contain a discussion of additional risks applicable to an
investment in us and the particular type of securities we are offering under that supplement. Although we discuss key risks in our risk factor descriptions, new risks may emerge in the future, which may prove to be important. Our subsequent filings
with the SEC may contain amended and updated discussions of significant risks. We cannot predict future risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. Accordingly, the risks and uncertainties that we face are not
limited to those set forth below and in the periodic reports incorporated herein by reference. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity and the trading prices of our securities. The risk factors included herein or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and any accompanying supplement are not necessarily
presented in the order of relative importance or probability of occurrence. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Capitalized terms not defined under the heading &#147;Risk

securities exchange or for quotation through any automated dealer quotation system. Although the underwriters for any offering of a series of debt securities may make a market in such debt securities, they are not obligated to do so and may
discontinue any such market making activities at any time without notice. Even if a trading market for a series of debt securities develops, the liquidity of any such market will depend upon the number of holders of the relevant series of debt
securities, our performance, the market for similar securities, the interest of securities dealers in making a market in such debt securities and other factors. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of, or adequate trading

other investment risks related to the debt securities. In addition, any reduction in our credit ratings could increase the cost of our funding from, and restrict our access to, the capital markets and have a material adverse effect on our results of

distribution or payment of our assets in any foreclosure, dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding, any secured creditors would have a superior claim to the extent of their collateral. In addition, the
senior debt securities will not be guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and therefore will be structurally subordinated to the existing and future indebtedness of our subsidiaries. In the event of the dissolution, winding up, liquidation or
reorganization or other bankruptcy proceeding of a subsidiary, creditors of that subsidiary (including, in the case of a banking subsidiary, its depositors) would generally have the right to be paid in full before any distribution is made to us or
the holders of the senior debt securities. If any of the foregoing occur, we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the senior debt securities. </P>

practice for use in certain new U.S. dollar derivatives and other financial contracts. On December&nbsp;16, 2022, the Federal Reserve adopted a final rule that implemented the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act by identifying benchmark rates based
on SOFR as the replacement for U.S. dollar LIBOR in certain financial contracts following the cessation of U.S. dollar LIBOR on June&nbsp;30, 2023. SOFR is a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury
securities, and has been published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York since April&nbsp;2018. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has also been publishing historical indicative SOFR from 2014. Investors should not rely on any historical changes

maturities (e.g., three&nbsp;months). As a result, there can be no assurance that SOFR (including Compounded SOFR) will perform in the same way as LIBOR would have at any time, including, without limitation, as a result of changes in interest and

distributions to the holders of senior indebtedness which otherwise would have been payable or distributable to holders of the subordinated debt securities will be deemed to be a payment by us to or on the account of the senior indebtedness. In

this subrogation will be deemed a payment by us on account of senior indebtedness and not on account of the subordinated debt securities. These provisions of the Subordinated Indenture are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative
rights of the holders of the subordinated debt securities and the holders of the senior debt securities. Nothing contained in the Subordinated Indenture is intended to impair our absolute obligation to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on the subordinated debt securities in accordance with their terms or to affect the relative rights of the holders of the subordinated debt securities and our creditors other than the holders of the senior indebtedness. These subrogation

our other covenants in the Subordinated Indenture, a Covenant Default, other than the Event of Default described above, will not result in the acceleration of payment of the subordinated debt securities. Although failure to comply with such other
covenants could give rise to a claim against us relating to the specific breach, the remedy of holders of the subordinated debt securities may be limited to direct monetary damages, if any. In addition, only the trustee or the holders of a majority
in principal amount of the outstanding subordinated debt securities, if the trustee fails to institute such a proceeding, may institute a proceeding against us on account of any such breach. The Subordinated Indenture will not require the trustee to

(for example, as a result of a long initial period on a debt security with interest is generally paid on an annual basis), then stated interest on the debt security will not qualify as
&#147;Qualified Stated Interest&#148; under the applicable Treasury Regulations. As a result, the debt security would be an Original Issue Discount Note. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">U.S. holders of Original Issue Discount Notes generally will be subject to special tax accounting rules for obligations issued with OID. U.S.
holders of such debt securities should be aware that, as described in greater detail below, they generally must include OID in ordinary gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in advance of the receipt of cash attributable
to that income. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In general, each U.S. holder of an Original Issue Discount Note, regardless of whether the holder uses the cash or the
accrual method of tax accounting, will be required to include in ordinary gross income the sum of the &#147;daily portions&#148; of OID on the debt security for all days during the taxable year that the U.S. holder owns the debt security. The daily
portions of OID on an Original Issue Discount Note are determined by allocating to each day in any accrual period a ratable portion of the OID allocable to that accrual period. Accrual periods may be any length and may vary in length over the term
of an Original Issue Discount Note, provided that no accrual period is longer than one year and each scheduled payment of principal or interest occurs on either the final day or the first day of an accrual period. In the case of an initial holder,
the amount of OID on an Original Issue Discount Note allocable to each accrual period is determined by (a)&nbsp;multiplying the &#147;Adjusted Issue Price&#148; (as defined below) of the Original Issue Discount Note at the beginning of the accrual
period by its yield to maturity (appropriately adjusted to reflect the length of the accrual period) and (b)&nbsp;subtracting from that product the amount (if any) of Qualified Stated Interest allocable to that accrual period. The &#147;yield to
maturity&#148; of a debt security is the discount rate that causes the present value of all payments on the debt security as of its original date of issue to equal the issue price of the debt security. The &#147;Adjusted Issue Price&#148; of an
Original Issue Discount Note at the beginning of any accrual period will generally be the sum of its issue price (generally including accrued interest, if any) and the amount of OID allocable to all prior accrual periods, reduced by the amount of
all payments other than payments of Qualified Stated Interest (if any) made with respect to the debt security in all prior accrual periods. As a result of this &#147;constant yield&#148; method of including OID in income, the amounts includible in
income by a U.S. holder in respect of an Original Issue Discount Note denominated in U.S. dollars generally are lesser in the early&nbsp;years and greater in the later&nbsp;years than the amounts that would be includible on a straight-line basis.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder generally may make an irrevocable election to include in its income its entire return on a debt security (i.e., the excess
of all remaining payments to be received on the debt security, including payments of Qualified Stated Interest, over the amount paid by the U.S. holder for the debt security) under the constant-yield method described above. For debt securities
purchased at a premium or bearing market discount in the hands of the U.S. holder, the U.S. holder making such election will also be deemed to have made the election (discussed below in &#147;&#151; Premium and Market Discount&#148;) to amortize
premium or to accrue market discount in income currently on a constant-yield basis. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A subsequent U.S. holder of an Original Issue
Discount Note that purchases the debt security at a cost less than its Remaining Redemption Amount (as defined below), or an initial U.S. holder that purchases an Original Issue Discount Note at a price other than the debt security&#146;s issue
price, also generally will be required to include in gross income the daily portions of OID, calculated as described above. However, if the U.S. holder acquires the Original Issue Discount Note at a price greater than its Adjusted Issue Price, the
holder is required to reduce its periodic inclusions of OID income to reflect the premium paid over the Adjusted Issue Price. The &#147;Remaining Redemption Amount&#148; for a debt security is the total of all future payments to be made on the debt

is received, in accordance with the U.S. holder&#146;s method of tax accounting. If the stated principal amount of a Single-Rate VRDI exceeds its issue price by at least a specified de minimis
amount, this excess will be treated as OID that a U.S. holder must include in income as it accrues in accordance with a constant-yield method based on compounding of interest before the receipt of cash payments attributable to this income (as
described above under &#147;&#151; Original Issue Discount&#148;). If a VRDI provides for stated interest at a fixed rate for an initial period of one year or less followed by a variable rate and the variable rate on the date of issue is intended to
approximate the fixed rate (which will be presumed if the value of the variable rate on the date of issue does not differ from the value of the fixed rate by more than 0.25%), the two rates will be treated for purposes of this and the next paragraph
as a single variable rate. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This discussion refers to VRDIs that provide for (i)&nbsp;multiple variable rates or (ii)&nbsp;one or more
variable rates and a single fixed rate as &#147;multiple-rate VRDIs.&#148; Under applicable Treasury regulations, in order to determine the amount of Qualified Stated Interest and OID in respect of multiple-rate VRDIs, an Equivalent Fixed-Rate Debt
Instrument must be constructed. The Equivalent Fixed-Rate Debt Instrument is constructed in the following manner: (i)&nbsp;first, if the multiple-rate VRDI contains a fixed rate, that fixed rate is converted to a variable rate that preserves the
fair market value of the note and (ii)&nbsp;second, each variable rate (including a variable rate determined under (i)&nbsp;above) is converted to a fixed rate substitute (which will generally be the value of that variable rate as of the date of
issue of the multiple-rate VRDI) (the &#147;Equivalent Fixed-Rate Debt Instrument&#148;). The rules discussed in &#147;&#151; Original Issue Discount&#148; are then applied to the Equivalent Fixed-Rate Debt Instrument to determine the amount, if
any, of OID and the timing of accrual of any OID. A U.S. holder will be required to include the OID in income for federal income tax purposes as it accrues, in accordance with a constant-yield method based on compounding of interest, as described
above under &#147;&#151; Original Issue Discount.&#148; Qualified Stated Interest on a multiple-rate VRDI will generally be taxable to a U.S holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received, in accordance with the U.S.
holder&#146;s method of tax accounting. If a multiple-rate VRDI is not issued with OID, all stated interest on the multiple-rate VRDI will be treated as Qualified Stated Interest. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If the amount of interest a U.S. holder receives in a calendar year is greater than the interest assumed to be paid or accrued under the
Equivalent Fixed-Rate Debt Instrument, the excess is generally treated as additional Qualified Stated Interest taxable to the U.S. holder as ordinary income. Otherwise, any difference will generally reduce the amount of Qualified Stated Interest a
U.S. holder is treated as receiving and will therefore reduce the amount of ordinary income the U.S. holder is required to take into income. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a Floating Rate Debt Security does not qualify as a VRDI, the debt security will be subject to special rules (the &#147;Contingent Payment
Regulations&#148;) that govern the tax treatment of debt obligations that provide for contingent payments (&#147;Contingent Debt Obligations&#148;). A detailed description of the tax considerations relevant to U.S. holders of any such debt
securities will be provided in the accompanying supplement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Sale, Exchange and Retirement of Debt Securities.</I> Upon the sale,
exchange or retirement of a debt security, a U.S. holder generally will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange or retirement (less any amount that is attributable to accrued Qualified Stated
Interest, which will be taxable as such) and the U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis in such debt security. A U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis in a debt security will generally equal the cost of the debt security to such U.S. holder, increased by any amounts
includible in income by the holder as OID and market discount and reduced by any amortized premium (each as described below) and any payments other than Qualified Stated Interest made on a debt security. Except as discussed below with respect to
market discount and Short-Term Notes (as defined below), gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder has held the debt security for more than one year at the time of disposition.
Long-term capital gains recognized by certain <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-corporate</FONT> U.S. holders (including an individual U.S. holder) generally are subject to tax at a lower rate than short-term capital gains or ordinary income. The

considered to have purchased the debt security at a premium, and may elect to amortize the premium (as an offset to interest income), using a constant-yield method, over the remaining term of the
debt security. Such election, once made, generally applies to all bonds held or subsequently acquired by the U.S. holder on or after the first taxable year to which the election applies and may not be revoked without the consent of the IRS. A U.S.
holder that elects to amortize the premium must reduce its tax basis in a debt security by the amount of the premium amortized during its holding period. Original Issue Discount Notes purchased at a premium will not be subject to the OID rules
described above. With respect to a U.S. holder that does not elect to amortize bond premium, the amount of bond premium will be included in the U.S. holder&#146;s tax basis when the debt security matures or is disposed of by the U.S. holder.
Therefore, a U.S. holder that does not elect to amortize such premium and that holds the debt security to maturity generally will be required to treat the premium as capital loss when the debt security matures. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If a U.S. holder of a debt security purchases the debt security at a price that is lower than its Remaining Redemption Amount, or in the case
of an Original Issue Discount Note, a price that is lower than its Adjusted Issue Price, by at least 0.25% of its Remaining Redemption Amount multiplied by the number of remaining whole&nbsp;years to maturity, the debt security will be considered to
have &#147;market discount&#148; in the hands of such U.S. holder. In such case, gain realized by the U.S. holder on the disposition of the debt security generally will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount that accrued
on the debt security while held by the U.S. holder. In addition, the U.S. holder could be required to defer the deduction of a portion of the interest paid on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase or carry the debt security. In general
terms, market discount on a debt security will be treated as accruing ratably over the term of the debt security, or, at the election of the holder, under a constant-yield method. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A U.S. holder may elect to include market discount in income on a current basis as it accrues (on either a ratable or constant-yield basis),
in lieu of treating a portion of any gain realized on a sale of a debt security as ordinary income. If a U.S. holder elects to include market discount on a current basis, the interest deduction deferral rule described above will not apply. Any such
election, if made, applies to all market discount bonds acquired by the taxpayer on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which such election applies and is revocable only with the consent of the IRS. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Short-Term Notes.</I> The rules set forth above will also generally apply to debt securities having maturities of not more than one year

Short-Term Note as Qualified Stated Interest. Thus, all Short-Term Notes will be Original Issue Discount Notes. OID will be treated as accruing on a Short-Term Note ratably, or at the election of a U.S. holder, under a constant yield method. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Second, a U.S. holder of a Short-Term Note that uses the cash method of tax accounting and is not a bank, securities dealer, regulated
investment company or common trust fund, and does not identify the Short-Term Note as part of a hedging transaction, will generally not be required to include OID in income on a current basis. Such a U.S. holder may not be allowed to deduct all of
the interest paid or accrued on any indebtedness incurred or maintained to purchase or carry such Note until the Maturity of the debt security or its earlier disposition in a taxable transaction. In addition, the U.S. holder will be required to
treat any gain realized on a sale, exchange or retirement of the debt security as ordinary income to the extent such gain does not exceed the OID accrued with respect to the debt security during the period the U.S. holder held the debt security.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a cash-basis U.S. holder of a Short-Term Note may elect to accrue OID into income on a current basis or to accrue the &#147;acquisition discount&#148; on the debt security under the rules described below. If the U.S.
holder elects to accrue OID or acquisition discount, the limitation on the deductibility of interest described above will not apply. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A
