The Concurrent Senior Notes Offering is being made by means of a separate prospectus supplement and not by means of the prospectus supplement to which this pricing term sheet relates. This communication is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities being offered in the Concurrent Senior Notes Offering. The closing of this offering and the Concurrent Senior Notes Offering are not conditioned on each other.

Concurrent Debt Tender Offer:		On November 10, 2021, in connection with its previously announced cash offer to purchase the notes set forth below (the “Tender Offer”), subject to prioritized acceptance levels, the Issuer announced that it has increased the aggregate purchase price of notes that the Issuer intends to purchase in the Tender Offer from the previously announced amount to up to $750 million aggregate purchase price, as such amount may be increased or decreased in the Issuer’s sole discretion, of its 3.700% Senior Notes due 2027 and its 4.700% Senior Notes due 2047. Additionally, the Issuer has amended the previously announced condition that it receive aggregate gross proceeds of at least $500 million from this offering and the Concurrent Senior Notes Offering to the Issuer’s receipt of gross proceeds of at least $750 million.

Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in two business days (“T+2”), unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Depositary Shares prior to the second business day before delivery of the Depositary Shares hereunder will generally be required, by virtue of the fact that the Depositary Shares initially settle on the seventh business day following the Pricing Date (“T+7”), to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Depositary Shares who wish to trade the Depositary Shares prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors.

The rating of the Depositary Shares should be evaluated independently from similar ratings of other securities. A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to review, revision, suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.
