In accordance with the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act (the “LIBOR Act”) and the final regulations issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on December 16, 2022 implementing the LIBOR Act (the “LIBOR Rule”), the 3-month Term SOFR Rate, and therefore the calculation of the amount of interest or dividends payable on the LIBOR Securities, also will include the tenor spread adjustment of 0.26161% provided in the LIBOR Act and LIBOR Rule.
