The information herein supplements the preliminary prospectus supplement and supersedes the information in the preliminary prospectus supplement to the extent inconsistent with the information in the preliminary prospectus supplement.
The issuer expects to deliver the Notes against payment for the Notes on the Settlement Date, which will be the third business day following the date of the pricing of the Notes. Under Rule15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the second business day before the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+3, to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
