\* A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

\*\* Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes before the date that is one business day prior to the settlement date will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially settle in T+5, 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 prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors.

\*\*\* The redemption of the 2029 Subordinated Notes, if any, will be made solely pursuant to a redemption notice delivered pursuant to the indenture governing the 2029 Subordinated Notes, and nothing contained herein constitutes a notice of redemption of the 2029 Subordinated Notes.
