ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE NOTES
Book-Entry System
We will issue the notes as a master global note registered in the name of DTC, or its nominee. The sale of the notes
will settle in immediately available funds through DTC. You will not be permitted to withdraw the notes from DTC except in
the limited situations described in the accompanying prospectus under "Legal Ownership and Book-Entry Issuance --
What Is a Global Security? -- Holder's Option to Obtain a Non-Global Security; Special Situations When a Global Security
Will Be Terminated". Investors may hold interests in a master global note through organizations that participate, directly or
indirectly, in the DTC system.
Survivor's Option to Request Repayment
Following the death of the beneficial owner of a note, so long as that note was owned by that beneficial owner or the
estate of that beneficial owner for at least six months prior to the request, if requested by the authorized representative of
the beneficial owner of that note (subject to the limitations described below), we agree to redeem any notes prior to the
stated maturity unless the notes:


· have been previously redeemed or otherwise repaid, or

· have been declared due and payable before their stated maturity by reason of an event of default under the

2008 Indenture, as more fully described in the accompanying prospectus under "Description of Debt Securities
We May Offer -- Default, Remedies and Waiver of Default".
Upon the valid exercise of the option to request repayment described in the preceding paragraph (Survivor's Option)
and the proper tender of that note for repayment (subject to the limitations described below), we will redeem that note, in
whole or in part (but in amounts of not less than $1,000), at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the note plus
any unpaid interest accrued to (but excluding) the date of repayment.
Incapital LLC has advised that it intends to make a market in the notes. Depending on market conditions, including
changes in interest rates, and our creditworthiness, the value of the notes may be greater than their principal amount plus
any unpaid interest accrued. Accordingly, the authorized representative should contact Incapital LLC to determine
the market price of the notes and should otherwise carefully consider whether to sell the notes to Incapital LLC
or another market participant rather than redeeming the notes at the principal amount plus accrued interest
pursuant to a request for redemption.
To be valid, the Survivor's Option must be exercised by or on behalf of the person who has:

· authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial owner of the note, including, without limitation, the personal

representative or executor of the deceased beneficial owner or the surviving joint owner with the deceased
beneficial owner, under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, and

· the right to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of an interest in a note and the right to receive the proceeds from

the note, as well as the principal and interest payable to the holder of the note.

Pricing Supplement No. 519 dated September 7, 2010

Table of Contents
The following will be deemed the death of a beneficial owner of a note, and the entire principal amount of the note so
held will be subject to redemption by us upon request (with the limitations described below):

· death of a person holding a beneficial ownership interest in a note as a joint tenant or tenant by the entirety with

another person, a tenant in common with the deceased holder's spouse or a tenant in common with a person
other than such deceased person's spouse;

· death of a person who at the time of his or her death was a beneficiary of a revocable or irrevocable trust that
holds a beneficial ownership interest in a note may, in the discretion of the Trustee, be deemed the death of a

beneficial owner of that note, if such beneficial trust interest can be established to the satisfaction of us and the
Trustee; and

· death of a person who, at the time of his or her death, was entitled to substantially all of the beneficial ownership

interests in a note regardless of whether that beneficial owner was the registered holder of that note, if
entitlement to those interests can be established to the satisfaction of us and the Trustee.
In addition, a beneficial ownership interest will be deemed to exist:

· in typical cases of nominee ownership, ownership under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or Uniform Gifts to

Minors Act, community property or other joint ownership arrangements between a husband and wife; and

· in custodial and trust arrangements where one person has all of the beneficial ownership interests in the

applicable note at the time of his or her death.
We have the discretionary right to limit the aggregate principal amount of notes as to which exercises of the
Survivor's Option shall be accepted by us from authorized representatives:

· of all deceased beneficial owners in any calendar year to an amount equal to 2% of the principal amount of all

outstanding notes offered by this pricing supplement as of the end of the most recent calendar year (two percent
aggregate limitation); and


· of any individual deceased beneficial owner of notes to $250,000 in any calendar year ($250,000 limitation).
In addition, we will not permit the exercise of the Survivor's Option except in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral
multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
We may, at our option, redeem interests of any deceased beneficial owner in the notes in any calendar year in
excess of the $250,000 limitation. Any optional redemption by us of this kind, to the extent it exceeds the $250,000
limitation for any deceased beneficial owner, will not be included in the computation of the two percent aggregate
limitation for redemption of the notes for that or any other calendar year.
We may also, at our option, redeem interests of deceased beneficial owners in the notes in any calendar year in an
aggregate principal amount exceeding the two percent aggregate limitation. Any optional redemption by us of this kind, to
the extent it exceeds the two percent aggregate limitation, will not be considered in calculating the two percent aggregate
limitation for any other calendar year.
Furthermore, any optional redemption by us with respect to a deceased beneficial owner's interest in the notes is
inapplicable with respect to any other deceased beneficial owner's interest in the notes. In

other words, we may waive any applicable limitations with respect to a deceased beneficial owner but not make the same
or similar waivers with respect to other deceased beneficial owners.
Each election to exercise the Survivor's Option will be accepted in the order that elections are received by the
Trustee, except for any note the acceptance of which would contravene either the two percent aggregate limitation or the
$250,000 limitation. Upon any determination by us to redeem notes in excess of the $250,000 limitation or the two percent
aggregate limitation, notes will be redeemed in the order of receipt of redemption requests by the Trustee. Each tendered
note that is not accepted in any calendar year due to the application of either the two percent aggregate limitation or the
$250,000 limitation will be deemed to be tendered in the following calendar year in the order in which all such notes were
originally tendered.
Notes accepted for repayment through the exercise of the Survivor's Option normally will be redeemed on the earlier
of the June 15 or
th
December 15 inter
th
est payment date that occurs 60 or more calendar days after the date of the
acceptance. For example, if the acceptance date of a note tendered through a valid exercise of the Survivor's Option is
May 1, 2011, and interest on that note is paid monthly on the 15 o
th
f every month, we would normally, at our option, repay
that note on the interest payment date occurring on December 15, 2011, because the June 15, 2011 interest payment
date would occur less than 60 days from the date of acceptance. Any redemption request may be withdrawn by the
person(s) presenting the request upon delivery of a written request for withdrawal given by the participant on behalf of the
person(s) to the Trustee not less than 30 days before the redemption date. If a note tendered through a valid exercise of
the Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Trustee will deliver a notice by first-class mail to the participant through whom
the note was tendered that states the reason that note has not been accepted for redemption.
With respect to notes represented by a master global note (such as these notes), DTC or its nominee is the
depositary and is treated as the holder of the notes and the institution that has an account with the depositary of the notes
is referred to as the "participant".
To obtain redemption pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option for a note, the deceased beneficial owner's
authorized representative must provide the following items to the participant in DTC through which the beneficial interest
in the note is held by the deceased beneficial owner:

· a written request for redemption signed by the authorized representative of the deceased beneficial owner with
the signature guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the Financial

Institution Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or
correspondent in the United States and a written instruction to notify the Trustee of the authorized
representative's desire to obtain redemption pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option;


· appropriate evidence satisfactory to us and the Trustee:

(a)
that the deceased was the beneficial owner of the note at the time of death and his or her interest in the

note was owned by the deceased beneficial owner or his or her estate for at least six months prior to the
request for redemption,


(b)
that the death of the beneficial owner has occurred,


(c)
of the date of death of the beneficial owner, and


(d)
that the representative has authority to act on behalf of the beneficial owner;

· if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement;

· tax waivers and any other instruments or documents that we or the Trustee reasonably require in order to

establish the validity of the beneficial ownership of the note and the claimant's entitlement to payment;

· any additional information we or the Trustee reasonably require to evidence satisfaction of any conditions to the

exercise of the Survivor's Option or to document beneficial ownership or authority to make the election and to
cause the redemption of the note; and

· if the interest in the note is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial owner, a certificate satisfactory to us

and the Trustee from the nominee attesting to the deceased's beneficial ownership of such note.
After the representative provides the information to the participant, the participant will then deliver each of these
items to the Trustee, and to Goldman, Sachs & Co. in its capacity as administrator of the Survivor's Option on our behalf,
together with evidence satisfactory to us and the Trustee from the participant stating that it represents the deceased
beneficial owner. The participant will then need to deliver to the Trustee a request for redemption substantially in the form
attached as Appendix A to this pricing supplement.
All questions regarding the eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option will be determined by us, in
our sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding on all parties.
Subject to arrangements with the depositary, payment for interests in the notes to be redeemed will be made to the
depositary in the aggregate principal amount specified in the redemption requests submitted to the Trustee by the
depositary that are to be fulfilled in connection with the payment upon presentation of the notes to the Trustee for
redemption.
Additional redemption request forms for the exercise of the Survivor's Option may be obtained from the Trustee at

During any time in which the notes are not represented by a master global note and are issued in definitive form:

· all references in this section of the pricing supplement to participants and the depositary, including the

depositary's governing rules, regulations and procedures, will be deemed inapplicable;

· all determinations that the participants are required to make as described in this section will be made by us,
including, without limitation, determining whether the applicable decedent is in fact the beneficial owner of the

interest in the notes to be redeemed or is in fact deceased and whether the representative is duly authorized to
request redemption on behalf of the applicable beneficial owner; and


· all redemption requests, to be effective, must:


--
be delivered by the representative to the Trustee, with a copy to us;

--
if required by the Trustee and us, be in the form of the attached redemption request with appropriate

changes mutually agreed to by the Trustee and us to reflect the fact that the

owner, a certificate or letter from the nominee attesting to the deceased's ownership of a beneficial

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
You should carefully consider, among other things, the matters set forth under "United States Taxation" in the
accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. The following discussion supplements the
section "United States Taxation" in the accompanying prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and is
subject to the limitations and exceptions set forth therein.
Medicare Tax. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, a U.S. holder that is an individual or estate, or
a trust that does not fall into a special class of trusts that is exempt from such tax, is subject to a 3.8% tax on the lesser of
(1) the U.S. holder's "net investment income" for the relevant taxable year and (2) the excess of the U.S. holder's modified
adjusted gross income for the taxable year over a certain threshold (which in the case of individuals will be between
$125,000 and $250,000, depending on the individual's circumstances). A holder's net investment income will generally
include its interest income and its net gains from the disposition of notes, unless such interest payments or net gains are
derived in the ordinary course of the conduct of a trade or business (other than a trade or business that consists of certain
passive or trading activities). If you are a U.S. holder that is an individual, estate or trust, you are urged to consult your tax
advisors regarding the applicability of the Medicare tax to your income and gains in respect of your investment in the
notes.
Backup Withholding and Information Reporting. Please see the discussion under "United States Taxation -- Taxation
of Debt Securities -- Backup Withholding and Information Reporting" in the accompanying prospectus for a description of
the applicability of the backup withholding and information reporting rules to payments made on your notes. In addition,
pursuant to recently enacted legislation, certain payments in respect of the notes made to corporate U.S. holders after
December 31, 2011 may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding.

$472,500.

Goldman, Sachs & Co. does not intend to make a market in these notes. However, in the future, Goldman, Sachs & Co.
or other affiliates of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. may decide to repurchase and resell the notes in market-making
transactions, with resales being made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of resale or at negotiated
prices. For more information about the plan of distribution and possible market-making activities, see "Plan of Distribution"
in the accompanying prospectus and "Supplemental Plan of Distribution" in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

may discontinue market-making at any time without notice. No assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading
market for the notes.
