We plan to deliver the Notes against payment therefor on a date that is greater than three business days following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
