Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes prior to their delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will initially settle T+3, 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 prior to their date of delivery should consult their own advisors.
