Subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, the May 2028 Notes Sub-Cap (in the case of the May 2028 Notes) and/or the March 2028 Notes Sub-Cap (in the case of the March 2028 Notes), all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Time having a higher Acceptance Priority Level (with 1 being the highest) will be accepted before any tendered Notes having a lower Acceptance Priority Level (with 4 being the lowest). Notes of a series may be subject to proration if the aggregate purchase price (excluding Accrued Interest) of all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would, if accepted in full, cause the Maximum Tender Amount to be exceeded, or if the aggregate principal amount of May 2028 Notes or March 2028 Notes, as applicable, would cause the May 2028 Notes Sub-Cap or the March 2028 Notes Sub-Cap, to be exceeded, as more fully described in the Offer to Purchase.(2) For each series of Notes, the calculation of the applicable Consideration (as defined below) will be performed assuming repayment of the principal on such Par Redemption Date for such series of Notes, excluding scheduled interest payments after such Par Redemption Date.(3) The Fixed Spread is equivalent to the spread pursuant to the "make-whole" redemption provisions under the November 2028 Notes.The Offers are being undertaken to proactively manage the Company's outstanding debt portfolio.Each Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 12, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by us in our sole discretion (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended, the 'Expiration Time'). Notes tendered for purchase may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 12, 2026 (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended, the 'Withdrawal Date'), but not thereafter, unless extended or earlier terminated with respect to an Offer by us in our sole discretion. We expect the settlement date to occur on August 17, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated in respect of an Offer by us in our sole discretion (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended, the 'Settlement Date').Each Offer is independent of the other Offers, and we may terminate, modify or waive the conditions of any Offer without terminating, modifying or waiving the conditions of any other Offer. The Company will not be able to definitively determine whether the Maximum Tender Amount, the May 2028 Notes Sub-Cap and/or the March 2028 Notes Sub-Cap is reached, or what the effects of proration may be with respect to the Notes, until after the Expiration Time has passed. The Company reserves the right to amend or waive any of the conditions of the Offers, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, in our sole discretion, subject to applicable law. If any of the conditions to the Offers are not satisfied at the Expiration Time with respect to an Offer, we may, in our sole discretion and without giving any notice, subject to applicable law, (a) terminate such Offer, (b) extend such Offer, on the same or amended terms, and thereby delay acceptance of any validly tendered Notes, or (c) continue to accept tenders.On August 5, 2026, the Company priced the offering of $2,500,000,000 5.243% Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Senior Unsecured Notes due 2032, $3,250,000,000 5.729% Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Senior Unsecured Notes due 2037 and $1,000,000,000 Floating Rate Senior Unsecured Notes due 2032 (the 'New Issuance'), thereby satisfying the New Issue Condition with respect to the Offers. It is expected that the Offers will be financed with the proceeds received from the New Issuance and, to the extent required, with cash on hand.Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, holders who validly tender Notes at or prior to the Expiration Time, and whose Notes have not been validly withdrawn at or prior to the Withdrawal Date and are accepted for purchase by us (subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, the applicable Acceptance Priority Levels, the May 2028 Notes Sub-Cap (in the case of the May 2028 Notes), the March 2028 Notes Sub-Cap (in the case of the March 2028 Notes), and to proration, if any), will receive consideration for each $1,000 principal amount of such Notes, which will be payable in cash on the Settlement Date as described below (the 'Consideration').The Consideration applicable to each series of Notes validly tendered and accepted by us pursuant to the Offers will be calculated at or around 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 12, 2026 (such date and time with respect to an Offer, as the same may be extended by the Company in its sole discretion, the 'Price Determination Date'), in accordance with the formula set forth in the Offer to Purchase and with standard market practice, using the applicable 'Offer Yield', which will be equal to the sum of: the applicable 'Reference Yield', as determined by the Dealer Manager (as defined below), that corresponds to the bid-side yield of the Reference Security specified in the table above for such series of Notes appearing on the Price Determination Date, such yield being directly quoted on the Bloomberg Reference Page (as defined below) and being rounded to the nearest 0.001 per cent. (with 0.0005 per cent. being rounded up), plus the Fixed Spread specified in the table above for such series of Notes. Accordingly, the Consideration payable by us for each $1,000 principal amount of each series of Notes accepted by us will equal: the present value on the Settlement Date of $1,000 principal amount of such Notes due on the Par Redemption Date (as specified in the table above) of such Notes and all scheduled interest payments on such $1,000 principal amount of such Notes to be made from (but excluding) the Settlement Date up to and including such Par Redemption Date, discounted to the Settlement Date at a discount rate equal to the applicable Offer Yield, minus the Accrued Interest per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes; such total amount being rounded to the nearest cent per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes, and the above calculation being made in accordance with standard market practice as described by the formula set forth in the Offer to Purchase.The 'Bloomberg Reference Page' means the page on Bloomberg from which the Dealer Manager will observe the bid-side yield of the Reference Security for each series of Notes, which is expected to be PX3 or PX4 as appropriate (or any other recognized quotation source selected by us in consultation with the Dealer Manager if such quotation source is not available or manifestly erroneous).As soon as reasonably practicable after the Price Determination Date, the Company will issue a press release specifying the Consideration for each series of Notes validly tendered and accepted.In addition to the Consideration, holders whose Notes of a given series are accepted for purchase will also be paid a cash amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from, and including, the last interest payment date for such Notes to, but not including, the Settlement Date, rounded to the nearest cent (such amount in respect of a series of Notes, 'Accrued Interest'). Accrued Interest will be payable on the Settlement Date. For the avoidance of doubt, interest will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Offers. Under no circumstances will any interest be payable to holders because of any delay on the part of Global Bondholder Services Corporation, as depositary, The Depository Trust Company ('DTC') or any other party in the transmission of funds to holders.Except as described above in respect of the Maximum Tender Amount and the May 2028 Notes Sub-Cap, the terms and conditions of the Offers as described in the Offer to Purchase remain unchanged, including the March 2028 Notes Sub-Cap. Holders who have previously validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) their Notes will not need to re-tender their Notes to be eligible to receive the Consideration.All Notes accepted in the Offers will be cancelled and retired, and will no longer remain outstanding obligations of the Company.
