The 2020 Floating Rate Notes are not subject to optional redemption.
The Fixed Rate Notes will be redeemable before their maturity, in whole or in part, at our option at any time, at a "make-whole" redemption
price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the
remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of
redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points in the case of the 2020 Fixed Rate Notes and 15 basis points in the case of the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes, plus in
each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means, with respect to the Fixed Rate Notes to be redeemed, the United States Treasury security selected by an
Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of such Fixed Rate Notes that would be utilized, at the time

remaining term of such Fixed Rate Notes.

Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed not more than 60 nor less than 30 days before the redemption date to each holder of Fixed Rate
Notes to be redeemed. Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the
Fixed Rate Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
Further Issues
We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of the Notes, create and issue additional notes having the same
ranking, interest rate, interest rate basis, number of basis points to be added to or subtracted from the related interest rate basis, maturity and other
terms as a particular tranche of Notes, as applicable, except for (1) the original issue date, (2) the issue price and (3) in some cases, the first interest
payment date. Additional notes will be considered part of the same series of notes as the Notes and any of our other Medium-Term Notes, Series A

The Notes will not have established trading markets when issued. The Underwriters may from time to time make a market in one or more
tranches of Notes but are not obligated to do so and may cease at any time. Neither we nor the Underwriters can assure you that any trading market
for any tranche of Notes will develop, continue or be liquid.
The Notes sold by the Underwriters to the public will initially be offered at the applicable public offering prices set forth on the cover page of
this pricing supplement. Any Notes sold by the Underwriters to dealers may be sold at the applicable public offering prices less a concession not to
exceed 0.150% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes or 0.250% of the principal amount of the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes, as applicable. The
Underwriters may allow, and dealers may reallow, a concession not to exceed 0.125% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes or 0.150% of the
principal amount of the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes, as applicable. After the initial offering of the Notes to the public, Mizuho Securities USA Inc., with
respect to the 2020 Notes, and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, with respect to the 2024 Fixed Rate Notes, on behalf of the Underwriters, may change
the public offering prices, concessions and reallowances of the Notes. The offering of the Notes by the Underwriters is subject to receipt and
acceptance and subject to the Underwriters' right to reject any order in whole or in part.
In connection with the offering, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Mizuho Securities USA
Inc. and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., on behalf of the Underwriters, are permitted to engage in certain transactions that stabilize the
prices of the Notes. These transactions may consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the prices of the Notes.
If the Underwriters create a short position in a tranche of Notes in connection with this offering by selling more Notes of such tranche than they
have purchased from us, then the Underwriters may reduce that short position by purchasing Notes of such tranche in the open market. In general,
purchases of Notes for the purpose of stabilization or to reduce a short position could cause the prices of such Notes to be higher than in the
absence of these purchases. The Underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may end any of these activities at any time. Neither
we nor any of the Underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described
above may have on the prices of the Notes.
We may enter into hedging transactions in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including forwards, futures, options, interest rate or
exchange rate swaps and repurchase or reverse repurchase transactions with, or arranged by, any of the Underwriters or an affiliate of that
Underwriter. The applicable Underwriter and its affiliates may receive compensation, trading gain or other benefits in connection with these
hedging transactions and the hedging transactions described below.
The Underwriters and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include
securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment,
hedging, financing and brokerage activities. Certain of the Underwriters and

PS-5
Table of Contents
their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various financial advisory, investment banking,
commercial banking and other services for AHFC and its subsidiaries, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses. In
addition, certain affiliates of the Underwriters are or have been lenders under AHFC's and its subsidiaries' credit facilities and term loans, for
which they have received or will receive fees under agreements they have entered into with AHFC or its subsidiaries.
In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Underwriters and their respective 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, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of

Pricing Supplement
AHFC or its subsidiaries. If any of the Underwriters or their affiliates have a lending relationship with AHFC or its subsidiaries, certain of those
Underwriters or their affiliates routinely hedge, and certain other of those Underwriters or their affiliates may hedge, their credit exposure to AHFC
or its subsidiaries 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 AHFC's or
its subsidiaries' 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 respective affiliates may also make investment recommendations
and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to
clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
AHFC has agreed to indemnify the several Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to
contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of these liabilities. AHFC has also agreed to reimburse the
Underwriters for certain expenses.

LEGAL MATTERS
In the opinion of David Peim, as counsel to AHFC, when the Notes offered by this pricing supplement and accompanying prospectus
supplement and prospectus have been executed and issued by AHFC and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of
September 5, 2013, as supplemented, between AHFC and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the "Indenture"), and delivered
against payment as contemplated herein, such Notes will be legally valid and binding obligations of AHFC, enforceable against AHFC in
accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or
affecting creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws), and by general principles of equity including,
without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or
injunctive relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to
the present laws of the State of California and the State of New York. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the
trustee's authorization, execution and delivery of the Indenture and its authentication of the Notes and the enforceability of the Indenture with
respect to the trustee and other matters, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated August 10, 2016 and filed as Exhibit 5.1 to AHFC's
