(1) 

A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

(2) 

It is expected that delivery of the bonds will be made on or about May 10, 2024, which will be the third business day following the date hereof (such settlement being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days (T+2), unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the bonds more than two business days prior to the scheduled settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the bonds will initially settle in T+3, to specify an alternative settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the bonds who wish to trade the bonds more than two business days prior to the scheduled settlement date should consult their own advisors.
