We expect that the delivery of the notes will be made to investors on or about September 20, 2021, which will be the fifth business day following the date of this term sheet (such settlement being referred to as T+5). Under Rule 15c6-1 of 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, investors who wish to trade notes prior to two business days before delivery may be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Investors who wish to trade the notes prior to two business days before their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors.
