      business day following the date of pricing of the Notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as &#8220;T+3&#8221;). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the U.S. 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 any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to two business days before the date of delivery of the Notes hereunder will be required, by virtue of the fact
      that the Notes initially will settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisor.</div>

      of issuer regulation.</div>
