<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">We are a biopharmaceutical company advancing a late-stage clinical platform targeting neuroinflammation across life-changing complement-mediated
neuroinflammatory diseases. The classical complement pathway is a core component to the body&#8217;s immune system that activates a powerful inflammatory cascade. We believe that by stopping the classical complement pathway at its start by targeting
C1q, the initiating molecule of the classical complement pathway, our approach may have the potential to provide more complete protection against complement-mediated disorders of the body, brain and eye. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Using our proprietary platform, we are identifying and characterizing the role of the classical complement pathway in three therapeutic
areas&#8212;autoimmune, neurodegeneration and ophthalmology. In so doing, we are advancing a pipeline of product candidates designed to block the early classical cascade and all downstream pathway components and their tissue-damaging functions. Our
goal is to suppress excessive or aberrant classical complement activity that contributes to chronic inflammation and tissue damage to slow or even halt disease progression, while preserving the beneficial immune functions of the lectin and
alternative complement pathways involved in the clearance of pathogens and damaged cells. We have demonstrated robust target engagement in the body, brain and eye, and clinical proof of concept in multiple diseases, and have focused our resources on
development of three priority programs: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for GBS and no substantial evidence of effectiveness from the current standard of care. In the placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial, approximately 90% of GBS patients treated with tanruprubart
improved by week 1 and more than twice as many treated patients achieved a normal state of health at week 26. Tanruprubart has consistently demonstrated rapid and sustained functional improvements across a comprehensive data package that includes
successful placebo-controlled <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">proof-of-concept,</FONT></FONT> or POC, and Phase 3 data, Real-World Evidence, or RWE, indirect comparison data of tanruprubart&#8217;s treatment effect

lack of approved comparator in the U.S. The open-label FORWARD study in the U.S. and Europe is ongoing and currently designed to broaden Western experience with tanruprubart. We continue to engage with applicable EU and U.S. regulators to advance

inhibitor of C1q and the classical complement cascade delivered intravitreally for dry AMD with GA, a leading cause of blindness affecting more than eight million people worldwide. There are no approved therapies for GA targeting the preservation of
vision. Vonaprument is the only investigational therapy in GA to show significant vision preservation on assessments of best corrected visual acuity, or BCVA, and low luminance visual acuity, demonstrating significant protection from vision loss in
both normal and low light conditions, as well as significant preservation of central retinal photoreceptors necessary for visual acuity. In the Phase 2 ARCHER trial, vonaprument also reduced risk of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">15-letter</FONT>
vision loss by more than 70%. In July 2025, we completed enrollment of 659 patients in ARCHER II, a global, sham-controlled, double-masked Phase 3 trial. The primary endpoint of ARCHER II is prevention of
<FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman">&#8805;</FONT><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">15-letter</FONT> loss of BCVA, and a secondary objective structural measure is prevention of ellipsoid zone, or EZ, loss. We have established a global
registration path with the FDA and EMA which supports the potential of vonaprument to be the first treatment approved in both Europe and the U.S. for the protection of vision in patients who have dry AMD with GA, assuming positive Phase 3 results.
We plan to report topline data in the second half of 2026. Vonaprument is the first and only therapeutic candidate for the treatment of GA to receive Priority Medicine, or PRIME, designation by the EMA, which provides early and proactive support to
developers of promising medicines that may offer a major therapeutic advantage over existing treatments or benefit to patients without treatment options. Vonaprument was also selected by EMA for the Product Development Coordinator Pilot launched in
July 2025 to help PRIME designation holders efficiently navigate regulatory interactions including expedited scientific advice, MAA submission readiness activities, and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">ad-hoc</FONT> queries throughout the

enteric-coated tablet formulation of ANX1502 in an ongoing POC study in patients with cold agglutinin disease, or CAD. We have observed drug levels at and exceeding the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-defined</FONT> target in fasted CAD
patients. Dosing is ongoing to enhance our understanding of ANX1502&#8217;s profile and we plan to provide an update upon study completion in 2026. </P></TD></TR></TABLE>

and under the section titled &#8220;Risk factors&#8221; contained in our Annual Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2024, as updated by our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q</FONT> and other filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, each of which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement in their entirety, together with other
information in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and the information and documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, and any free writing prospectus that we have
authorized for use in connection with this offering before you make a decision to invest in our securities. If any of the following risks actually occur, it could harm our business, operating results, financial condition and future prospects. In
such event, the market price of our common stock or value of the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrants could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to
us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL" ALIGN="center"><B>Risks Relating to This Offering </B></P>

</I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering. We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this
offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, to advance our late-stage neuroinflammation platform led by global registrational programs, tanruprubart in GBS and vonaprument in dry AMD with GA and for
working capital and other general corporate purposes. Our management will have considerable discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds
are being used appropriately. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The net proceeds may be
used for corporate purposes that do not increase our operating results or enhance the value of our common stock. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations, delay the development of our product candidates and cause the price of our common stock to decline. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL"><B><I>The

$&#8195;&#8195;&#8195;&#8195;million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares of our common stock in full, in each case, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including our development and commercialization efforts with respect

that the net proceeds of our offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments, will extend operations one year past the anticipated vonaprument topline pivotal data in GA. We have based this estimate on
assumptions that may prove to be incorrect, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Pending the uses
described above, we plan to invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government. We cannot predict whether the
proceeds invested will yield a favorable return. Our management will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the net

per share by dividing the net tangible book value, which is tangible assets less total liabilities, by the number of outstanding shares of our common stock at September&nbsp;30, 2025. Dilution with respect to net tangible book value per share
represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of common stock in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering. </P>

should generally be taxed in the same manner as a holder of common stock, as described below. No gain or loss should be recognized upon the exercise of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrant (other than with respect to cash
paid in lieu of a fractional share) and, upon exercise, the holding period of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrant should carry over to the share received. Similarly, the tax basis of the
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrant should carry over to the share received upon exercise, increased by the exercise price. In certain circumstances, the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrants may be
exercised on a cashless basis. The U.S. federal income tax treatment of an exercise of a warrant on a cashless basis is not clear, and could differ from the consequences described above. It is possible that a cashless exercise could be a taxable
event. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the consequences of an exercise of a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrant on a cashless basis, including with respect to their holding period and tax basis in the
shares of common stock received upon exercise. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Except where specifically noted below, the following discussion assumes the characterization
described above is respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, this characterization is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS may treat the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrants as warrants to acquire shares of our
common stock. If so, the tax consequences with respect to an investment in our <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-funded</FONT> warrants could differ. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the risks associated with the acquisition of

withholding rules we or the applicable withholding agent may treat the entire distribution as a dividend. While withholding under FATCA would have applied also to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the Securities,
proposed Treasury Regulations eliminate FATCA withholding on payments of gross proceeds entirely. Taxpayers generally may rely on these proposed Treasury Regulations until final Treasury Regulations are issued. </P>

sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common stock than they are required to purchase in the offering, and a short
position represents the amount of such sales that have not been covered by subsequent purchases. A &#8220;covered short position&#8221; is a short position that is not greater than the amount of additional shares of common stock for which the
underwriters&#8217; option described above may be exercised. The underwriters may cover any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares of common stock in the open market. In
determining the source of shares of common stock of common stock to cover the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares of common stock available for purchase in the open market as compared to
the price at which they may purchase additional shares of common stock pursuant to the option described above. &#8220;Naked&#8221; short sales are any short sales that create a short position greater than the amount of additional shares of common
stock for which the option described above may be exercised. The underwriters must cover any such naked short position by purchasing shares of common stock in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters
are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases
of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:5%; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The underwriters may also impose a penalty

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering a new class of complement medicines for people living with devastating
inflammatory-related diseases. The classical complement pathway is a core component to the body&#8217;s immune system that activates a powerful inflammatory cascade. We believe that by stopping the classical complement pathway at its start by
targeting C1q, the initiating molecule of the classical complement pathway, our approach may have the potential to provide more complete protection against complement-mediated disorders of the body, brain and eye. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Using our proprietary platform, we are identifying and characterizing the role of the classical complement pathway in three therapeutic
areas&#8212;autoimmune, neurodegeneration and ophthalmology. In so doing, we are advancing a pipeline of product candidates designed to block the early classical cascade and all downstream pathway components and their tissue-damaging functions. Our
goal is to suppress excessive or aberrant classical complement activity that contributes to chronic inflammation and tissue damage to slow or even halt disease progression, while preserving the beneficial immune functions of the lectin and
alternative complement pathways involved in the clearance of pathogens and damaged cells. We have demonstrated robust target engagement in the body, brain and eye, and clinical proof of concept in multiple diseases, and have focused our resources on
development of three priority programs: </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

full-length monoclonal antibody, or mAb, formulated for intravenous administration in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for the potential treatment of patients with GBS. GBS is a rare antibody-mediated autoimmune disease that is the most common cause
of acute neuromuscular paralysis, with no therapies in the U.S. approved by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. We believe maximum suppression of C1q and the classical cascade early in the disease process may act to rapidly prevent
complement-mediated nerve damage and irreversible neurological disability. In a prior placebo-controlled <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">proof-of-concept</FONT></FONT> trial, a single dose of ANX005 showed rapid and
consistent improvement in muscle strength that translated into observable gains in health status, including a reduction in the need of mechanical ventilation, as well as a reduction in nerve damage and clinical function. We completed enrollment of
241 patients in our ongoing placebo-controlled Phase 3 GBS trial, and data are anticipated in the second quarter of 2024. We intend to establish comparability of the GBS patient population in our Phase 3 trial with patients from the International
Guillain-Barr&eacute; Syndrome Outcomes Study, or IGOS, a global, prospective, observational, multicenter cohort study that has enrolled 2,000 patients who were followed for one to three years. We have initiated a

intravitreal administration, into a pivotal Phase 3 program for the potential treatment of patients with GA. GA is the leading cause of vision loss in the elderly, that affects an estimated eight million people globally. ANX007 is designed to block
C1q locally in the eye, to provide more complete protection against excess classical complement activity, a key driver of GA, and the loss of photoreceptor neurons. In a randomized, multi-center, double-masked, sham-controlled Phase 2 ARCHER
clinical trial of 270 patients with GA, ANX007 was the first and only program to show statistically significant and consistent protection against vision loss in a broad population of patients with GA, measured by best corrected visual acuity, or
BCVA, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#8805;15-letter</FONT> loss, the widely accepted and clinically meaningful functional endpoint. While the primary endpoint of rate of lesion growth did not reach statistical significance, evaluating the first
and second six months of ANX007 treatment showed a greater effect on lesion size with time, suggesting that lesion growth may slow with longer treatment with ANX007. In December 2023, we announced FDA alignment on a Phase 3 registration program for
ANX007 in GA using, for the first-time, the prevention of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#8805;15-letter</FONT> loss of BCVA as the primary outcome measure. We plan to initiate the Phase 3 ARCHER II trial in
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">mid-2024,</FONT> a global sham-controlled trial designed to confirm the results from the Phase 2 ARCHER trial. We also plan to initiate the Phase 3 ARROW trial in late 2024, an injection-controlled <FONT

mechanism of action and critical differentiation on visual function. ANX007 is the first therapeutic candidate for the treatment of GA to receive Priority Medicine, or PRIME, designation by the EMA, which provides early and proactive support to
developers of promising medicines that may offer a major therapeutic advantage over existing treatments or benefit to patients without treatment options. </P></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

the risks and uncertainties described under the section titled &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; contained in the applicable prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus, and discussed under the section titled &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221;
contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-K</FONT> and in our most recent Quarterly Report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">10-Q,</FONT> as well as any amendments thereto reflected in subsequent
filings with the SEC, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus in their entirety, together with other information in this prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference and any free writing prospectus that we may authorize for

factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If
any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be seriously harmed. This could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your

incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: acquisition of us by means of a tender offer; acquisition of us by means of a proxy contest or otherwise; or removal of
our incumbent officers and directors. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests,
including transactions that might result in a premium over the market price for our shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These provisions, summarized below, are
expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to first negotiate with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of
increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because negotiation of these proposals
could result in an improvement of their terms. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are subject to Section&nbsp;203 of the DGCL, which prohibits persons deemed &#8220;interested stockholders&#8221; from engaging in a
&#8220;business combination&#8221; with a publicly-held Delaware corporation for three years following the date these persons become interested stockholders unless the business combination is, or the transaction in which the person became an
interested stockholder was, approved in a prescribed manner or another prescribed exception applies. Generally, an &#8220;interested stockholder&#8221; is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years prior to
the determination of interested stockholder status did own, 15% or more of a corporation&#8217;s voting stock. Generally, a &#8220;business combination&#8221; includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction resulting in a financial
benefit to the interested stockholder. The existence of this provision may have an anti-takeover effect with respect to transactions not approved in advance by the board of directors, such as discouraging takeover attempts that might result in a
premium over the market price of our common stock. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Undesignated Preferred Stock </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock makes it possible for our board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or
other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to effect a change in control of our company. These and other provisions may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our
company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Special Stockholder Meetings </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our board of directors is divided into three classes, divided as nearly as equal in number as possible. The directors in each class serve for a
three-year term, one class being elected each year by our stockholders, with staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of
their respective three-year terms. Because our stockholders do not have cumulative voting rights, our stockholders holding a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding will be able to elect all of our directors. Our amended and restated
certificate of incorporation provides for the removal of any of our directors only for cause and requires a stockholder vote by the holders of at least a 66 2/3% of the voting power of the then outstanding voting stock. Furthermore, any vacancy on
our board of directors, however occurring, including a vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the board, may only be filled by a resolution of the board of directors unless the board of directors determines that such vacancies shall be
filled by the stockholders. This system of electing and removing directors and filling vacancies may tend to discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us because it generally makes it more
difficult for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Choice of Forum </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We can issue securities in registered form or in the form of one or more global securities. We describe global securities in greater detail
below. We refer to those persons who have securities registered in their own names on the books that we or any applicable trustee, depositary or warrant or unit agent, maintain for this purpose as the &#8220;holders&#8221; of those securities. These
persons are the legal holders of the securities. We refer to those persons who, indirectly through others, own beneficial interests in securities that are not registered in their own names, as &#8220;indirect holders&#8221; of those securities. As
we discuss below, indirect holders are not legal holders, and investors in securities issued in book-entry form or in street name will be indirect holders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Book-Entry Holders </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may issue
securities in book-entry form only, as we will specify in the applicable prospectus supplement. This means securities may be represented by one or more global securities registered in the name of a financial institution that holds them as depositary
on behalf of other financial institutions that participate in the depositary&#8217;s book-entry system. These participating institutions, which are referred to as participants, in turn, hold beneficial interests in the securities on behalf of
themselves or their customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Only the person in whose name a security is registered is recognized as the holder of that security.
Securities issued in global form will be registered in the name of the depositary or its participants. Consequently, for securities issued in global form, we will recognize only the depositary as the holder of the securities, and we will make all
payments on the securities to the depositary. The depositary passes along the payments it receives to its participants, which in turn pass the payments along to their customers who are the beneficial owners. The depositary and its participants do so
under agreements they have made with one another or with their customers; they are not obligated to do so under the terms of the securities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a result, investors in a book-entry security will not own securities directly. Instead, they will own beneficial interests in a global
security, through a bank, broker or other financial institution that participates in the depositary&#8217;s book-entry system or holds an interest through a participant. As long as the securities are issued in global form, investors will be indirect
holders, and not legal holders, of the securities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Street Name Holders </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may terminate a global security or issue securities in <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-</FONT> global form. In these cases, investors
may choose to hold their securities in their own names or in &#8220;street name.&#8221; Securities held by an investor in street name would be registered in the name of a bank, broker or other financial institution that the investor chooses, and the
investor would hold only a beneficial interest in those securities through an account he or she maintains at that institution. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For
securities held in street name, we or any applicable trustee or depositary will recognize only the intermediary banks, brokers and other financial institutions in whose names the securities are registered as the holders of those securities, and we
or any applicable trustee or depositary will make all payments on those securities to them. These institutions pass along the payments they receive to their customers who are the beneficial owners, but only because they agree to do so in their
customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. Investors who hold securities in street name will be indirect holders, not holders, of those securities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Legal Holders </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our obligations, as well
as the obligations of any applicable trustee and of any third parties employed by us or a trustee, run only to the legal holders of the securities. We do not have obligations to investors who hold beneficial interests in global securities, in street
name or by any other indirect means. This will be the case whether an investor chooses to be an indirect holder of a security or has no choice because we are issuing the securities only in global form. </P>

responsibility for the payment or notice even if that legal holder is required, under agreements with depositary participants or customers or by law, to pass it along to the indirect holders but does not do so. Similarly, we may want to obtain the
approval of the legal holders to amend an indenture, to relieve us of the consequences of a default or of our obligation to comply with a particular provision of the indenture or for other purposes. In such an event, we would seek approval only from
the legal holders, and not the indirect holders, of the securities. Whether and how the legal holders contact the indirect legal holders is up to the legal holders. </P>

represented by a global security that we deposit with and register in the name of a financial institution or its nominee that we select. The financial institution that we select for this purpose is called the depositary. Unless we specify otherwise
in the applicable prospectus supplement, DTC will be the depositary for all securities issued in book-entry form. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A global security may
not be transferred to or registered in the name of anyone other than the depositary, its nominee or a successor depositary, unless special termination situations arise. We describe those situations below under the section titled &#8220;Special
Situations When a Global Security Will Be Terminated&#8221; in this prospectus. As a result of these arrangements, the depositary, or its nominee, will be the sole registered owner and legal holder of all securities represented by a global security,
and investors will be permitted to own only beneficial interests in a global security. Beneficial interests must be held by means of an account with a broker, bank or other financial institution that in turn has an account with the depositary or
with another institution that does. Thus, an investor whose security is represented by a global security will not be a legal holder of the security, but only an indirect holder of a beneficial interest in the global security. </P>

a specified maximum price. Syndicate-covering or other short-covering transactions involve purchases of the securities, either through exercise of the over-allotment option or in the open market after the distribution is completed, to cover short
positions. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a dealer when the securities originally sold by the dealer are purchased in a stabilizing or covering transaction to cover short positions. Those activities may
cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would otherwise be. If commenced, the underwriters may discontinue any of the activities at any time. These transactions may be effected on any exchange or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT

display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid for such security; if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker&#8217;s bid, however, the passive market maker&#8217;s bid must then be lowered when
