The Offers and the Consent Solicitations are described in and were made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement dated June 19, 2017 (the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement”).

The Offers and Consent Solicitations expired at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 17, 2017 (the “Expiration Date”). The Company has been advised by the tender agent that as of the Expiration Date, a total of (i) $177,479,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes had been validly tendered and not withdrawn, which represented approximately 64.54% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes, and (ii) $318,457,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes had been validly tendered and not withdrawn, which represented approximately 93.66% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes.

Holders of the additional 2019 Notes who validly tendered their 2019 Notes after the Early Tender Deadline and on or prior to the Expiration Date will receive $1,070.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the 2019 Notes validly tendered, plus any accrued and unpaid interest from the most recent interest payment date for the 2019 Notes to, but not including, July 18, 2017.
