Extended Settlement: | It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made, against payment of the Notes, on or about August 18, 2021, which will be the seventh business day in the United States following the date of pricing of the Notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, purchases or sales of securities in the secondary market generally are required to settle within two business days (T+2), unless the parties to any such transaction expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to the second business day before delivery of the Notes will be required, because the Notes initially will settle within seven business days (T+7) in the United States, 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 trade the Notes prior to the second business day before delivery of the Notes should consult their advisors. | |
