 1934, purchases or sales of securities in the secondary market generally are required to settle within one business day (T+1), unless the parties to any such transaction expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Securities on any day prior to the business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Securities initially will not settle on T+1 in the United States, to specify any alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement.
