*An explanation of the significance of ratings may be obtained from the rating agencies. Generally, rating agencies base their ratings on such materials and information, and such of their own investigations, studies and assumptions, as they deem appropriate. The rating of the notes should be evaluated independently from

similar ratings of other securities. A credit rating of a security is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to review, revision, suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.

** T+5 Settlement. Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market are required to settle in three business days (such settlement being referred to as “T+3”), unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade these securities on the date of this issuer free writing prospectus or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that these securities initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement arrangement at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of these securities who wish to trade these securities on the date of this issuer free writing prospectus or the next succeeding business day should consult their advisors.
