As provided under the heading "Luxembourg Stock Exchange Approved Prospectus" on page S-4 of this Supplement, subject to approval by
the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, certain parts (but not all) of this Supplement and the accompanying prospectus dated July 5, 2012 starting after
page S-78 (the "SEC Base Prospectus"), as well as the documents incorporated by reference into this Supplement or the SEC Base Prospectus,
constitute a "prospectus" for the purposes of the Luxembourg Act dated July 10, 2005, as amended, relating to prospectuses for securities (the
"Luxembourg Act"). The parts of this Supplement and the SEC Base Prospectus and those documents incorporated by reference into this
Supplement that together constitute a "prospectus" for the purposes of the Luxembourg Act are referred to herein as the "LSE Approved Prospectus"
and are identified on page S-4 of this Supplement under the heading "Luxembourg Stock Exchange Approved Prospectus."
Application has been made to admit the bonds to the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and application has been made to
admit the bonds to trading on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange's Euro MTF Market (the "Euro MTF Market"). The Euro MTF Market is not
a regulated market for the purposes of Directive 2004/39/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial
instruments. References in this prospectus to the bonds being "listed" (and all related references) shall mean that the bonds have been
admitted to the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted to trading on the Euro MTF Market.
Our credit ratings have been issued by Moody's Japan K.K. ("Moody's") and S&P Global Ratings Japan Inc. ("S&P"), neither of which are
established or registered in the European Union and neither of which are registered under Regulation (EC) No. 1060/2009 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of September 16, 2009 on credit rating agencies (the "CRA Regulation"), but such credit ratings have been endorsed
by Moody's Investors Service Ltd. ("Moody's Europe") and Standard & Poor's Credit Market Services Europe Limited ("S&P Europe"),
respectively, each of which is an entity established in the European Union and registered under the CRA Regulation. Under the CRA Regulation,
certain investors may generally only use a credit rating for regulatory purposes in the European Union if the credit rating is issued by a credit rating
agency in the European Union and registered in accordance with the CRA Regulation (or is endorsed and published or distributed by subscription by
such a credit rating agency in accordance with the CRA Regulation), unless the credit rating is issued by a credit rating agency operating in the
European Union before June 7, 2010 which has submitted an application for registration under the CRA Regulation that has not been refused.
Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") nor any other regulatory body has approved
or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this Supplement or the SEC Base Prospectus. Any
representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONSIDERATIONS
For an investor that is not resident in the United States or does not conduct business or activities in the
United States, an investment in the bonds, which are denominated in, and all payments in respect of which are to
be made in, U.S. dollars entails significant risks not associated with a similar investment in a security
denominated in the investor's home currency (i.e., the currency of the country in which the investor is resident or
the currency in which the investor conducts its business or activities). These include the possibility of:
·
significant changes in rates of exchange between the home currency and the U.S. dollar; and
·
the imposition or modification of foreign exchange controls with respect to the U.S. dollar.
We have no control over a number of factors affecting this type of bond, including economic, financial and
political events that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks and their
results. In recent years, rates of exchange for certain currencies, including the U.S. dollar, have been volatile and
this volatility may be expected to continue in the future. Fluctuations in any particular exchange rate that have
occurred in the past are not necessarily indicative of fluctuations in the rate that may occur during the term of the
bonds. Depreciations of the U.S. dollar against the investor's home currency could result in a decrease in the
investor's effective yield of the bonds below the coupon rate, and in certain circumstances, could result in a loss
to such purchaser on a home currency basis.
The description of foreign currency risks does not describe all the risks of an investment in securities
denominated in a currency other than your home currency. Prospective investors should consult their own
financial and legal advisors as to the risks involved in an investment in such bonds.

Interest Rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Fixed rate bonds: The 3-year fixed rate bonds, the 5-year fixed rate
bonds and the 10-year fixed rate bonds will bear interest at a rate of
2.125%, 2.500% and 2.875%, respectively, per annum, accruing from
June 1, 2017. We will pay interest on the fixed rate bonds semi-
annually in arrears in equal payments. Whenever it is necessary to
compute any amount of interest in respect of the fixed rate bonds, that
interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-
day months.
Floating rate bonds: The floating rate bonds will bear interest at a
floating rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the Three-month
U.S. Dollar LIBOR (as defined in "Description of the Bonds and
Guarantee") plus 0.48%, accruing from June 1, 2017. We will pay
interest on the floating rate bonds quarterly in arrears. Interest on the
floating rate bonds will be calculated on the basis of the actual
number of days in an interest period and a 360-day year.
Ranking . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The bonds will be our direct, unsecured debt securities obligations and
rank pari passu and be payable without any preference among
themselves and at least equally with all of our other unsecured debt
securities obligations from time to time outstanding, which rank senior
to our unsecured general obligations not represented by debt securities,

provided, however, that certain obligations in respect of national and
local taxes and certain preferential rights granted by, among others, the
Japanese Civil Code to certain specified types of creditors, such as
preferential rights of employees to wages, will have preference.
Additional Amounts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . If certain taxes, as described under "Description of the Bonds and
Guarantee", are payable on the bonds, we will, subject to certain
exceptions, pay such additional amounts on the bonds as will result,
after deduction or withholding of such taxes, in the payment of the
amounts that would have been payable on the bonds if no such
deduction or withholding had been required. For further detail on the
payment of these additional amounts, see "Description of the Bonds
and Guarantee--Additional Amounts".
Redemption . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . We may redeem all, but not less than all, of the bonds in the event of
certain changes relating to Japanese taxation at 100% of the principal
amount thereof plus accrued interest thereon and any additional
amounts we are required to pay, as described under "Description of the
Bonds and Guarantee--Redemption".
Markets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . We are offering the bonds for sale only in those jurisdictions other than
