It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about August 26, 2009, which will be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the Notes (such settlement cycle being referred to herein as T+5). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade either series of the Notes on the date of pricing or the following business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of Notes who wish to trade those Notes on the date of pricing or the following business day should consult their own advisor.
