(1)

The maximum subcap applicable to the 7.050% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) of $120,000,000 (the “2029 Maximum SubCap”) represents the maximum aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes that may be purchased in the tender offer for the 2029 Notes.

(2)

Subject to the Maximum Aggregate Cap and proration if applicable, the principal amount of Notes that is purchased in each tender offer will be determined in accordance with the applicable acceptance priority level (in numerical priority order) specified in this column; provided that (i) we will not accept 2029 Notes in an aggregate principal amount that exceeds the 2029 Maximum SubCap and (ii) Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date (as defined herein) will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date.

(3)

Does not include accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, which will also be payable as provided herein.

(4)

Includes the Early Tender Premium (as defined herein).

The tender offers are being made upon the terms and subject to conditions, including the Financing Condition (as defined below), described in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 19, 2024 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), which sets forth a detailed description of the tender offers. The Company reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Maximum Aggregate Cap or the 2029 Maximum SubCap in its sole discretion at any time without extending or reinstating withdrawal rights, subject to compliance with applicable law.

The tender offers are conditioned upon, among other things, the successful completion (in the sole determination of the Company) of one or more debt financing transactions raising aggregate gross proceeds of an amount at least equal to $600,000,000 (the “Debt Financing” and such condition, the “Financing Condition”). No assurances can be given that the Company will complete the Debt Financing.

The tender offers for the Notes will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 18, 2024, or any other date and time to which the Company extends the applicable tender offer (such date and time, as it may be extended with respect to a tender offer, the “Expiration Date”), unless earlier terminated. Holders of Notes must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes prior to or at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2024 (such date and time, as it may be extended with respect to a tender offer, the “Early Tender Date”), to be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below). If a holder validly tenders Notes after the applicable Early Tender Date but prior to or at the applicable Expiration Date, the holder will only be eligible to receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below).

In addition to the consideration set forth in the table above, all holders of Notes accepted for purchase in the tender offers will receive accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from the last interest payment date with respect to such Notes to, but not including, the applicable settlement date.

Subject to the Maximum Aggregate Cap, the 2029 Maximum SubCap and proration if applicable, holders of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers will receive the applicable tender offer consideration set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Tender Offer Consideration”) plus the early tender offer premium for such series of Notes set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Early Tender Premium” and, together with the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, the “Total Consideration”). Holders of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Tender Date, but before or at the Expiration Date, and accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers will receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, but not the Early Tender Premium. No tenders will be valid if submitted after the Expiration Date. Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date, even if such Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date have a higher acceptance priority level than Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date in each tender offer.

The Company intends to fund the purchase of validly tendered and accepted Notes with the net proceeds from the Debt Financing and available cash on hand. The purpose of the tender offers is to enhance the Company’s debt maturity profile.

The tender offers will expire on the applicable Expiration Date. Except as set forth below, payment for the Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Expiration Date and that are accepted for purchase will be made on a date promptly following the Expiration Date, which is currently anticipated to be October 23, 2024, the third business day after the Expiration Date. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make payment for Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date and that are accepted for purchase on an earlier settlement date, which, if applicable, is currently anticipated to be October 7, 2024; provided that the conditions to the applicable tender offer are satisfied or waived.

Tendered Notes may be withdrawn prior to or at, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2024.

The tender offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions which are specified in the Offer to Purchase, including the Financing Condition. The tender offers are not conditioned on any minimum principal amount of Notes being tendered.
