Settlement Date: |
|
December 16, 2019 (T+10)
We expect that delivery of the Notes will be made to investors on or about December 16, 2019, which will be the tenth business day following the date of this Pricing Term Sheet (such settlement cycle being herein referred to as “T+10”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market 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 Notes prior to the date that is two business days preceding the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+10, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes hereunder during such period should consult their advisors. |
