Book-Entry System The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, NY, will act as securities depository for the securities (the "Securities").

DTC also facilitates the settlement among Participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book entry changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates.
