(1) Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade their Notes on the date of pricing or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of Notes who wish to trade such Notes on the date of pricing or the next succeeding business day should consult their own advisor.
(2) A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.
