It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment therefor on or about 26 August 2025, which will be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the Notes (this settlement
cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades of securities in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any
such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes prior to the first business day before the delivery of the Notes will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Notes initially will settle in T+5,
to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the Notes who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisor.

The Issuer does not fall under the scope of application of MiFID II. Consequently, the Issuer does not qualify as an “investment firm”, “manufacturer” or “distributor” for the purposes of MiFID II. Solely
for the purposes of each manufacturer’s product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties, professional clients
and retail clients, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes are appropriate, subject to the distributor’s suitability and appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable. Any person
subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturers’ target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own
target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers’ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels, subject to the distributor’s suitability and
appropriateness obligations under MiFID II, as applicable. For the purposes of this section, the expression “MiFID II” means Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on markets in financial
instruments and amending Directive 2002/92/EC and Directive 2011/61/EU, as amended from time to time, and the expression “manufacturer” means any Underwriter that is a manufacturer under MiFID II.
