Under Rule 15c6-1 of 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 a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes prior to the second business day before the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+10, to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

No key information document (“KID”) required by Regulation (EU) No. 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering, selling or distributing the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) has been prepared as the Notes will not be made available to any retail investor in the EEA.
