Payment of Principal and Interest for the
Fixed Rate Notes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Interest on the fixed rate notes will accrue at the rate of 3.662%
per annum from March 29, 2017.
We will pay interest on the fixed rate notes semiannually in arrears on
March 29 and September 29 of each year, beginning on
September 29, 2017, to the persons in whose names the fixed rate
notes are registered as of the close of business on the fifteenth day
before the due date for payment (whether or not a business day).
Interest on the fixed rate notes will be paid to but excluding the
relevant interest payment date. We will compute interest on the fixed
rate notes on the basis of the actual number of days in the year and the
actual number of days elapsed. If any payment is due on the fixed rate
notes on a day that is not a business day, we will make payment on
the date that is the next succeeding business day. Payments postponed
to the next succeeding business day in this situation will be treated as
if they were made on the original due date. Postponement of this kind
will not result in a default under the notes, and no interest will accrue
on the postponed amount from the original due date to the next
succeeding business day.
We will pay 100% of the principal amount of the fixed rate notes at
the maturity date.

Maturity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The floating rate notes will mature on March 29, 2022.
Payment of Principal and Interest for the
Floating Rate Notes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Interest on the floating rate notes will accrue at a floating rate
per annum, reset quarterly, equal to the BBSW Rate plus 1.27% from
S-2


March 29, 2017. The BBSW Rate for each interest period (as defined
herein) will be determined by the calculation agent in accordance
with the terms of the floating rate notes.
We will pay interest on the floating rate notes quarterly in arrears on
March 29, June 29, September 29 and December 29 of each year,
beginning on June 29, 2017, subject to adjustments, to the persons in
whose names the floating rate notes are registered as of the close of
business on the fifteenth day before the due date for payment
(whether or not a business day).
We will compute interest on the floating rate notes on the basis of the
actual number of days in an interest period and a 365-day year. The
first interest period will begin on and include March 29, 2017 and will
end on but exclude the first interest payment date of the floating rate
notes. The interest rate applicable to the first interest period will be
determined by the calculation agent on March 29, 2017.
If any interest payment date (other than the maturity date) of the
floating rate notes would fall on a day that is not a business day, that
interest payment date will be adjusted to the day that is the next
succeeding business day, unless that business day is in the next
succeeding month, in which case such interest payment date will be
the immediately preceding business day.
The maturity date for the floating rate notes will be March 29, 2022.
In the event March 29, 2022 is not a business day, the payment of
interest and principal in respect of the floating rate notes will be made
on the next succeeding day that is a business day, and no interest on
such payment shall accrue for the period from and after March 29,
2022.
We will pay 100% of the principal amount of the floating rate notes at
the maturity date.
