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

 

**Note: We expect that delivery of the notes will be made to investors on or about February 10, 2025, which will be the third business day following the date of this final term sheet (such settlement being referred to as “T+3”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day (as such term is used for purposes of Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act), unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes on any date prior to the business day before delivery of the notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes will initially settle in T+3, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement; such purchasers should consult their own advisors in this regard.

 

The notes will be represented by beneficial interests in fully registered permanent global notes (the “international global notes”) without interest coupons attached, which will be registered in the name of, and shall be deposited on or about February 10, 2025 with a common depositary for, and in respect of interests held through, Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”), and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (“Clearstream”). Any notes represented by global notes held by a nominee of Euroclear or Clearstream will be subject to the then applicable procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable. Euroclear and Clearstream’s current practice is to make payments in respect of global notes to participants of record that hold an interest in the relevant global notes at the close of business on the date that is the clearing system business day (for these purposes, Monday to Friday inclusive except December 25th and January 1st) immediately preceding each applicable interest payment date.
