Additional Information Regarding Agents:

United States Tax Considerations:

The text under "United States Tax Considerations" in the Prospectus Supplement, dated July 17, 2015, summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax
considerations that may be relevant to a beneficial owner of a note. The text is amended as follows:

I.
Introductory paragraph -- Insert the following text after the fourth sentence:

It is intended to apply only to investors who acquire their notes upon original issuance, or investors who acquire their notes in a
subsequent purchase and are not members of our expanded group, as defined in the Treasury regulations under Section 385 of the Internal
Revenue Code (the "Code").

II.
"United States Tax Considerations -- Original Issue Discount" -- Delete the following text in the first sentence:

Internal Revenue

III.
"United States Tax Considerations -- Non-U.S. Holders" -- Replace the existing text in its entirety with the following:

If a holder is a non-resident alien individual or a foreign corporation that is the beneficial owner of the notes (a "non-U.S. holder"):

(a) payments of interest (including any original issue discount) on a note made to such non-U.S. holder will not be subject to
withholding of U.S. federal income tax, provided that, with respect to payments of interest on a note, (i) the non-U.S. holder
does not actually or constructively own 10 percent or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock and is not a
controlled foreign corporation related to us through stock ownership; (ii) the payments are not payments of contingent interest as
described in Section 871(h)(4) of the Code (generally,

6

interest (including original issue discount), the amount of which is determined by reference to our receipts, sales, cash flow,
income, profits, property values, dividends or comparable attributes or such attributes of a party related to us); (iii) the beneficial
owner provides a statement signed under penalties of perjury (typically, on IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E) that includes its
name and address and certifies that it is a non-U.S. holder in compliance with applicable requirements (or satisfies certain
documentary evidence requirements for establishing that it is a non-U.S. holder); (iv) the non-U.S. holder has provided any
direct or indirect information with respect to its direct and indirect U.S. owners; and (v) if the non-U.S. holder or any
intermediary through which it holds notes is a "foreign financial institution" (as defined below), each such entity has entered into
an agreement with the U.S. government, pursuant to which it agrees, among other responsibilities, to collect and provide to the
U.S. tax authorities information about its direct and indirect U.S. accountholders and investors, or otherwise establishes an
exemption; and

(b) such non-U.S. holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on gain realized on the sale, exchange or redemption of
the note, provided that, (i) the gain of such holder is not effectively connected with the holder's conduct of a trade or business in
the United States (and, if certain treaties apply, is not attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the non-U.S.
holder within the United States); (ii) if the non-U.S. holder is an individual holder, such holder is not present in the United States
for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale, exchange or redemption (and does not satisfy certain other conditions); and
(iii) in the case of a sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a note effected on or after January 1, 2019, (x) the
non-U.S. holder has provided any direct or indirect information with respect to its direct and indirect U.S. owners; and (y) if the
non-U.S. holder or any intermediary through which it holds notes is a "foreign financial institution" (as defined below), each
such entity has entered into an agreement with the U.S. government, pursuant to which it agrees, among other responsibilities, to
collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities information about its direct and indirect U.S. accountholders and investors, or
otherwise establishes an exemption.
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/63908/000110465917015105/a17-7844_3424b2.htm[3/8/2017 1:12:06 PM]

If U.S. tax is imposed as a result of a failure to comply with the documentation requirements described in clauses (a)(iv) and
(v) or (b)(iii) above, the beneficial owner may be entitled to a refund if the required information is provided to the IRS.

For purposes of the discussion in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, a "foreign financial institution" generally is a non-U.S. entity
that (i) accepts deposits in the ordinary course of a banking or similar business; (ii) as a substantial portion of its business, holds
financial assets for the account of others; or (iii) is engaged (or holds itself out as being engaged) primarily in the business of
investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities, partnership interests or commodities, or interests in securities, partnership interests
or commodities.

U.S. information reporting requirements and backup withholding tax will not apply to payments on a note made to a non-U.S.
holder if the statement described in paragraph (a)(ii) above is duly provided.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a holder's U.S. federal
income tax liability. A holder may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by filing the appropriate
claims for a refund with the IRS and furnishing the required information.

The text under "Plan of Distribution" in the Prospectus Supplement, dated July 17, 2015, is amended by inserting the following text immediately

any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal
