It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made, against payment for the notes, on or about February 24, 2021, which will be the tenth business day following the pricing of the notes. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of this term sheet or the next succeeding seven


business days will be required, because the notes initially will settle within ten business days (T+10), to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade on the date of this term sheet or the next seven succeeding business days should consult their own legal advisors.
