We expect to deliver the Debentures against payment therefor in New York City on or about June 7, 2024, which will be the fourth business day following the date of the prospectus supplement and of the pricing of the Debentures. Under Rule 15c6-l of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Debentures on the pricing date or the next two succeeding business days will be required by virtue of the fact that the Debentures initially will settle in four business days (T+4) to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent failed settlement.
