Note: It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made to investors on or about February 23, 2021, which will be the tenth business day following the date hereof (such settlement cycle being referred to as ‘‘T+10’’). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, 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 notes on the date of pricing or on the next seven succeeding business days will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+10, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of pricing or on the next seven succeeding business days should consult their own advisors.
