Note: We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about October 8, 2024, which will be the second business day following the time of sale (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+2”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally 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 prior to one business day before delivery of the Notes hereunder will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+2, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to one business day before delivery of the Notes hereunder should consult their own advisors.
