ADDITIONAL TERMS OF THE NOTES

Plan of Distribution

Under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a distribution agreement (as may be supplemented from time to time, the "Distribution Agreement") dated as of August 11, 2022, between AHFC and the agent named in the prospectus supplement, AHFC is hereby offering the Notes through the Agent named below. The Agent named below have agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the Notes. The Agent named below will receive their commission with respect to the principal amount of the Notes set forth below.

Amount of Notes

Mizho Securities USA LLC

$ 410,000,000.00

Total

$ 410,000,000.00

The Issuer expects that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about November 21, 2024, which will be the second business day following the date of pricing of the Notes (such settlement being referred to as "T+2"). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on the date of pricing will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially settle in T+2, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes on the pricing date should consult their own advisors.

LEGAL MATTERS

In the opinion of Steve Faulk, as counsel to AHFC, when the Notes offered by this pricing supplement and accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus have been executed and issued by AHFC and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of September 5, 2013, between AHFC and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 8, 2018, between AHFC and the Trustee (as supplemented, the "Indenture"), and delivered against payment as contemplated herein, such Notes will be legally valid and binding obligations of AHFC, enforceable against AHFC in accordance with their terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally (including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance laws), and by general principles of equity including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the present laws of the State of California and the State of New York. In addition, this opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the Trustee's authorization, execution and delivery of the Indenture and its authentication of the Notes and the enforceability of the Indenture with respect to the Trustee and other matters, all as stated in the letter of such counsel dated July 3, 2024 and filed as Exhibit 5.1 to AHFC's Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-266775) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 3, 2024.
