 including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make in respect of these liabilities. S-40

No Public Trading Market

There is currently no public trading market for the Notes. In addition, we have not applied and do not intend to apply to list the Notes on any
national securities exchange or to have the Notes quoted on an automated quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they intend to make a market in the Notes. However, the underwriters are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any
market-making in the Notes at any time in their sole discretion and without prior notice. Therefore, we cannot assure you that a liquid trading market for the Notes will develop or continue, that you will be able to sell your Notes at a particular
time or that the price that you receive when you sell will be favorable.

No Sale of Similar Securities

We have agreed with the underwriters that from the date of the Underwriting Agreement until the date of the delivery of the Notes, we and our
subsidiaries will not, without the prior consent of the underwriters, directly or indirectly, issue, sell, offer to sell, grant any option for the sale of or otherwise dispose of, any debt securities that are substantially similar to the Notes
(including, without limitation, with respect to the maturity, currency, interest rate and other material terms of the Notes).

Stabilization

In connection with this offering of the Notes, the underwriters may engage in overallotment, stabilizing transactions and syndicate covering
transactions in accordance with Regulation M under the Exchange Act. Overallotment involves sales in excess of the offering size, which create a short position for the underwriters. Stabilizing transactions involve bids to purchase the Notes in the
open market for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the Notes. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the Notes in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover short positions.

Stabilizing transactions and syndicate covering transactions may cause the price of the Notes to be higher than it would otherwise exist in
the open market in the absence of those transactions. If the underwriters engage in stabilizing or syndicate covering transactions, they may discontinue such activities at any time without notice.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the
transactions described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition
