Conflicts of Interest: | Blackstone Securities Partners L.P., as a subsidiary of Blackstone Inc., is deemed to have a “conflict of interest” within the meaning of Rule 5121 (Public Offerings of Securities with Conflicts of Interest) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“Rule 5121”). Rule 5121 imposes |
2
certain requirements on a FINRA member participating in the public offering of securities of an issuer if there is a conflict of interest and/or if that issuer controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the FINRA member. This offering is being made in compliance with the requirements of Rule 5121. In compliance with Rule 5121, Blackstone Securities Partners L.P. will not sell any of our securities to a discretionary account unless it has received specific written approval from the account holder in accordance with Rule 5121. The appointment of a “qualified independent underwriter” is not necessary in connection with this offering. |
* | Note: A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time. |
** | We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefore on or about the closing date, which will be on or about the fourth business day following the date of pricing of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+4”). Under Rule 15c6-l of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market are generally required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes prior to the date that is one business day preceding the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+4, to specify alternate arrangements at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor. |
