Payment of Additional Amounts: | Applicable | |
Redemption for Tax Reasons: | Applicable | |
Optional Redemption: | The Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, (a) in whole, but not in part, on April 25, 2024, or (b) in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after March 25, 2025 and prior to Maturity Date, in each case upon at least 30 calendar days, but not more than 60 calendar days, prior written notice to holders of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to but excluding, the redemption date.
In addition, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, on or after October 25, 2019 (or, if additional Notes are issued after April 25, 2019, beginning six months after the issue date of such additional Notes) and prior to April 25, 2024, upon at least 30 calendar days, but not more than 60 calendar days, prior written notice to the holders of the Notes being redeemed as described in the prospectus, at a make-whole redemption price equal to the greater of:
(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or
(ii) as determined by the quotation agent described below, the sum of the present values of the scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed, that would have been payable from the applicable redemption date to April 25, 2024 (not including interest accrued to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date), discounted to the applicable redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the GOC Bond Yield plus 31.5 basis points,
plus, in either case of (i) or (ii) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest on the Notes being redeemed that is due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a redemption date for such Notes will be payable on such Interest Payment Date to holders of such Notes being redeemed as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the terms of such Notes and the Senior Indenture.
GOC Bond Yield on any date of determination means the arithmetic average of the interest rates quoted to the quotation agent by two major Canadian registered investment dealers (that are not the quotation agent) selected by the Issuer as being the annual yield to maturity on such date, assuming semi-annual compounding, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would carry, if issued in Canadian dollars in Canada, at 100% of its principal amount on the applicable redemption date with a maturity date of April 25, 2024. |

Quotation agent means Merrill Lynch Canada Inc., or its successor, or, if that firm is unwilling or unable to determine the GOC Bond Yield, a substitute Canadian investment bank, dealer or other financial institution appointed by the Issuer.
The GOC Bond Yield will be determined by the quotation agent as set forth above on the third business day immediately preceding the applicable redemption date.
Because Merrill Lynch Canada Inc. is an affiliate of the Issuer, the economic interests of Merrill Lynch Canada Inc. may be adverse to your interests as a holder of the Notes subject to the Issuers redemption, including with respect to certain determinations and judgments it must make as quotation agent in the event that the Issuer redeems the Notes before their maturity pursuant to the make-whole optional redemption described above. | ||
