The Book-Runner expects to deliver the notes in book-entry form only through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company against payment in New York, New York on or about the fourth business day following the date of this Term Sheet. Trades of securities in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, referred to as T+3, unless the parties to a trade agree otherwise. Accordingly, by virtue of the fact that the initial delivery of the notes will not be made on a T+3 basis, investors who wish to trade the notes before a final settlement will be required to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement.
