It is expected that the delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about August 9, 2024, which will be the second business day after the date of the prospectus supplement. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes prior to the business day preceding the Settlement Date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes will settle in two business days, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Such purchasers should consult their own advisors in this regard. |
