Such Securities will be registered on one or more registration statements on Form F-3 (including amendments thereto), or on such other form or forms promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as may be necessary or advisable to effect such registration (each such registration statement, a “Registration Statement”).
