It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made, against payment for the notes, on or about August 17, 2018, which will be the seventh 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 prospectus supplement or the next succeeding four business days will be required, because the notes initially will settle within seven business days (T+7), 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 prospectus supplement or the next four succeeding business days should consult their own legal advisors.
