Ranking:

•   will rank junior in right of payment and upon the Company’s liquidation to any of the Company’s existing and all of its future general creditors;

The Company expects that delivery of the Notes will be to investors on or about the Settlement Date indicated above, which will be the fourth business day following the trade date of November 17, 2021 (such settlement cycle being referred to as “T+4”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally 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 delivery of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes will initially settle in four business days (T+4), 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 should consult their advisors.
