The Offer is being made upon, and is subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the offer to purchase, dated October 1, 2025 (the “Offer to Purchase”). The Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 30, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion (the “Expiration Date”). Tenders of Notes may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 15, 2025 (the “Withdrawal Deadline”), but may not be withdrawn thereafter except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law.
The total consideration (the “Total Consideration”) paid in the Offer for Notes that are validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 15, 2025 unless extended by the Company in its sole discretion (the “Early Tender Deadline”) and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the fixed spread for the Notes specified in the table above plus the yield to maturity of the Reference U.S. Treasury Security specified in the table above and in the Offer to Purchase and will include an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”). Holders of Notes who validly tender their Notes following the Early Tender Deadline and on or prior to the Expiration Date will only receive the applicable “Tender Offer Consideration” per $1,000 principal amount of any such Notes tendered by such holders that are accepted for purchase, which is equal to the Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Premium. The Total Consideration will be determined at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on October 16, 2025, unless extended by the Company.
Tenders of Notes will be accepted only in principal amounts equal to $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted. Holders who tender less than all of their Notes must continue to hold Notes in at least the minimum authorized denomination of $2,000 in principal amount.
Payments for Notes purchased will include accrued and unpaid interest from, and including, the most recent interest payment date for the Notes to, but excluding, the applicable settlement date (“Accrued Interest”). The settlement date for Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Deadline (the “Early Settlement Date”) is expected to be October 20, 2025, subject to all conditions to the Offer having been either satisfied or waived by the Company. The settlement date for the Notes that are tendered following the Early Tender Deadline but on or prior to the Expiration Date is expected to be November 3, 2025, subject to all conditions to the Offer having been either satisfied or waived by the Company, assuming an amount of Notes equal to the Tender Cap is not purchased on the Early Settlement Date.
Subject to the Tender Cap and proration, all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted before any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline. Even if the Offer is not fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, subject to the Tender Cap, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted for purchase in priority to Notes validly tendered following the Early Tender Deadline.
Notes may be subject to proration if the aggregate purchase price of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the Tender Cap. Furthermore, if the Offer is fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, holders who validly tender Notes following such Early Tender Deadline will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase.
Subject to applicable law, the Company reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Tender Cap at any time which could result in a greater or lesser aggregate purchase price of the Notes, and the Company may do so without extending the Withdrawal Deadline.
The Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as more fully set forth in the Offer to Purchase. There can be no assurance such conditions will be satisfied. The Offer is not subject to a minimum tender condition.
