The Issuer expects that delivery of Notes will be made to investors on the Settlement Date, which will be the fifth business day following the date hereof (such settlement being referred to as “T+5”). UnderRule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes on the date hereof or the next two succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of Notes who wish to trade Notes prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors. | |
