Delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about October 30, 2018, which will be the fourth business day following the date of pricing of the Notes, or T+4.

Purchasers of the Notes who wish to trade the Notes prior to their date of delivery hereunder should consult their advisors. |
