Certain of the above statements are summaries of the complete descriptions in the Offering Memorandum
and are qualified thereby. Potential investors should refer to the Offering Memorandum and not rely solely

Use of Proceeds
The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be U.S.$1,236,150,000 and will be used
for general funding purposes.

Settlement
It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or
about January 14, 2020 which will be four business days following the date of pricing of
the Notes hereof (this settlement cycle being referred to as "T+4"). Under Rule 15c6-1 of

specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed
settlement and should consult their own advisor.
