We expect that delivery of the shares will be made against payment therefor on or about January 19, 2021, which will be the third business day following the trade date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally will be required to settle in two business days after the trade date for the shares, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the shares on the date of this prospectus supplement will be required, by virtue of the fact that the shares will settle within three business days (T+3), to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement; such purchasers should also consult their own advisors in this regard.
