**Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to
settle in two business days, unless the parties to such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade their notes on the date of pricing or the next two business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes
initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
