The detailed methodology for calculating the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below) for validly tendered Notes is outlined in the Offer to Purchase.
Holders who validly tendered their Notes of either series and delivered their consents pursuant to the Consent Solicitations on or prior to the Consent Payment Deadline, and who did not validly withdraw their Notes or consents, will be eligible to receive the applicable total consideration for such series of Notes determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the fixed spread over the applicable yield to maturity of the applicable Reference Security listed in the Offer to Purchase (for each series of Notes, the “applicable Total Consideration”), which includes a consent payment equal to $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of that series of tendered Notes.
Holders who properly tender their Notes of either series after the Consent Payment Deadline and on or prior to the Offer Expiration Time (as defined below), and who do not validly withdraw their Notes, will be eligible to receive an amount equal to the applicable Total Consideration for such series of notes less the $30.00 consent payment per $1,000 principal amount of that series of tendered Notes.
The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 18, 2019, unless extended or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase (the “Offer Expiration Time”).
In addition, all validly tendered and accepted Notes will receive accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the payment date of the Notes.
The Company expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law, to (i) terminate or withdraw either Tender Offer at any time and not accept for purchase any Notes, (ii) waive any or all of the conditions of either Tender Offer, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Offer Expiration Time and from time to time, (iii) extend the Offer Expiration Time or (iv) otherwise amend either Tender Offer in any respect. If the Company makes a material change in the terms of such Tender Offer or the information concerning such Tender Offer or waives a material condition of such Tender Offer, the Company will disseminate additional offering materials and extend the Tender Offers to the extent required by law. Until the Offer Expiration Time, no assurance can be given that the Tender Offers will be completed.
The Company has retained Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC to serve as dealer manager for the Tender Offers. The information agent and tender agent for the Tender Offers is Ipreo LLC. For additional information regarding the terms of the Tender Offers, please contact Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC at (800) 828-3182.
