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

The underwriters expect to deliver the securities to purchasers on or about June 19, 2020, which will be the third business day following the date of pricing of the securities (such settlement cycle being herein referred to as “T + 3”). 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 any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the securities prior to the second business day before the delivery of the securities will be required, by virtue of the fact that the securities initially will settle in T + 3, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the securities who wish to trade the securities prior to the second business day before the delivery of the securities should consult their own advisor.
