The Issuer expects that delivery of the Debentures will be made to investors on or about March 7, 2024, which will be the fifth business day following the date of this pricing term sheet (such settlement being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under 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 any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Debentures on any date prior to the date that is two business days before delivery of the Debentures will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Debentures initially will settle T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Such purchasers should consult their own advisor.

A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time. The rating of the Debentures should be evaluated independently of any other security rating.
