The Early Tender
Consideration for the Notes validly tendered at or prior to the
Early Tender Time (defined below) and accepted for purchase is
calculated using the Fixed Spread and is inclusive of the Early
Tender Premium.
|
Only holders of Notes who validly tendered their Notes at or
prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on August 21, 2024 (the "Early Tender Time") are eligible
to receive the Early Tender Consideration. In addition to the Early
Tender Consideration, holders whose Notes are purchased in the
Tender Offer will receive accrued and unpaid interest from the last
interest payment date up to, but not including, the applicable
settlement date.
Since the principal amount of Notes tendered as of the Early
Tender Time exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, the Notes validly
tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be subject to
proration as described in the section "The Terms of the Tender
Offer—Maximum Tender Amount; Priority of Acceptance; Proration" of
the Offer to Purchase using a proration rate of approximately
62.47%. The Company does not anticipate accepting for purchase any
Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time.
The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to pay
for Notes that are validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender
Time, and that are accepted for purchase, on a date following the
Early Tender Time and prior to 5:00
p.m., New York City time,
on September 6, 2024, or any other
date and time to which the Company extends the Tender Offer (such
earlier date, the "Early Settlement Date"). The Company anticipates
that the Early Settlement Date will be August 23, 2024, the
second business day after the Early Tender Time, subject to all
conditions to the Tender Offer, including that the Company has
received proceeds from a senior notes offering sufficient
(determined in the Company's sole discretion) to fund the purchase
of the Notes, having been satisfied or waived by the Company.
All other terms and conditions of the previously announced
Tender Offer, including without limitation the withdrawal deadline
of August 21, 2024, remain unchanged and are as set forth in
the Offer to Purchase.

manager (the "Dealer Manager") for the Tender Offer. The Company
