* It is expected that delivery of the Convertible Preferred Stock will be made against payment therefor on or about May 15, 2020, which is the fifth business day following the trade date of the Convertible Preferred Stock (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Convertible Preferred Stock prior to the second business day preceding the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Convertible Preferred Stock initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement and should consult their own advisors.
