On January 16, 2014, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $3 billion in floating rate notes due 2019 (the “Floating Rate Notes”), fixed rate notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”) and fixed rate notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes” together with the Floating Rate Notes and the 2019 Notes, the “Notes”; and the offering of the Notes, the “Notes Offering”). We issued the Notes pursuant to an Indenture (the “Indenture”) dated as of October 17, 2001, by and between us and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (as successor trustee to The Bank of New York and The Chase Manhattan Bank), as trustee, as modified in respect of the Notes by the Officers’ Certificate pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture (the “301 Certificate”).

We have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Prospectus dated February 28, 2011 and a Prospectus Supplement dated January 9, 2014, each of which forms a part of our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-172488) (the “Registration Statement”) in connection with the Notes Offering. We are filing the items listed below as exhibits to this Current Report for the purpose of incorporating them as exhibits to the Registration Statement.

The issuance of the Notes hereby satisfies the financing condition for our previously announced tender offer for our 6.500% Notes due 2040, 7.000% Notes due 2037, 6.875% Notes due 2038, 6.875% Notes due 2039 and 6.500% Notes due 2031.
