* Pursuant to Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the 2023 Series A Bonds in the secondary market prior to the date that is two business days before the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the 2023 Series A Bonds will initially settle T+5 (on January 10, 2023) to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of 2023 Series A Bonds who wish to trade 2023 Series A Bonds prior to the date that is two business days before the settlement date should consult their own advisors.
