*Note: A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

** We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about May 15, 2023, which is the fourth business day following the date of this term sheet (such settlement cycle being referred to as “T+4”). 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 such trade expressly agree otherwise. Also, under Rule 15c6-1 under 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 any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes earlier than the 2nd London business day or the 2nd New York business day before May 15, 2023 will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle T+4, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent failed settlement, and so should consult their own advisors.

The 2026 Notes and the 2031 Notes are being offered separately, and are not part of a unit. The closing of each series of the notes is not conditioned on the closing of the other series of the notes.
