Settlement Date: | June 1, 2021 (T+10) The Issuer expects that the delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about June 1, 2021, which is the tenth business day following the date of the prospectus supplement (the settlement cycle being referred to as “T+10”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the SEC promulgated under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise at the time of the trade. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes prior to the second business day preceding the closing date for the notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+10, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own adviser. |
