(1) The Issuer expects that delivery of the Series G Preferred Shares will be made against payment therefor on or about August 25, 2016, which will be the fifth business day following the date hereof (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Series G Preferred Shares on the date hereof or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the Series G Preferred Shares initially will settle in T+5, to specify alternative settlement arrangements at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement and should consult their own advisor.
