No PRIIPs KID — No PRIIPs key information document (KID) has been prepared as the 2030 Notes and the 2050 Notes (collectively, the “Notes”) are not available to retail in the EEA or in the United Kingdom.
We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about August 10, 2020 (such settlement being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market 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 Notes prior to the second business day before the delivery of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle T+3, to specify an alternative 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 hereunder should consult their own advisors.
