*Note: An explanation of the significance of ratings may be obtained
from the ratings agencies. Generally, ratings agencies base their ratings on such material and information, and such of their own investigations,
studies and assumptions, as they deem appropriate. The security ratings above are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the securities
offered hereby. The ratings may be subject to review, revision, suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the rating agencies.
Each of the security ratings above should be evaluated independently of any other security rating.
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 any such trade expressly
agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes prior to the business day before the date of delivery 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 the business day before the date of delivery
should consult their advisors.
