*Note: 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 Issuer expects that delivery of the Notes offered hereby will be made against payment therefor on or about August 14, 2024, which will be the
second business day following the date of pricing of the Notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as "T+2"). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to such trade
expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes on the initial pricing date of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the
fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+2, to specify alternative settlement arrangements at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement
and should consult their own advisors.
