secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the 2024 Notes on the date of pricing day will be required, by virtue of
the fact that the 2024 Notes initially will settle in T+3, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement. Purchasers of the 2024 Notes who wish to trade the 2024 Notes on the date of pricing
should consult their own advisors.</P></TD></TR>

days unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the 2027 Notes on the date of pricing day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the 2027 Notes initially will settle in T+3, to
specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement. Purchasers of the 2027 Notes who wish to trade the 2027 Notes on the date of pricing should consult their own advisors.</P></TD></TR>
