| · | If the notes are not automatically called, your investment will result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal. |
| · | Your return on the notes may be less than the yield you could earn by owning a conventional fixed or floating rate debt security of comparable maturity. |
| · | Payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk, and actual or perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of the notes. |
