We expect to deliver the Notes against payment for the Notes on or about May 16, 2024. Under the E.U. Central Securities Depositaries Regulation, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two London business days unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Also 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 New York business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade Notes before the second business day prior to delivery being required will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
