(1) No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers listed herein.  Such information is provided solely for the convenience of the Holders (as defined below) of the Notes.
(2) The consideration (the "Consideration") payable per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the applicable fixed spread specified in the table above plus the yield to maturity of the applicable U.S. Treasury Reference Security specified in the table above based on the bid-side price of such Reference Security on the applicable Reference Page specified in such table at 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 21, 2025 (as such date and time may be extended). The calculation of the Consideration may be performed to either the maturity date or the par call date for the Notes, as applicable, in accordance with standard market practice. The Consideration does not include Accrued Interest (as defined below), which will be paid on Notes accepted for purchase by us.
(3) In addition to the Consideration, holders (each a "Holder" and, collectively, the "Holders") of Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the Offers, including Notes accepted pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures referred to herein, will also receive accrued interest from the last interest payment date of the Notes to, but not including, the Settlement Date (as defined below) (such accrued interest, the "Accrued Interest") .

The Offers may be amended by us in our sole discretion, subject to applicable law. The Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 21, 2025, unless extended or terminated by us (such time and date, as the same may be extended or terminated by us in our sole discretion, subject to applicable law, the "Expiration Date"). Tendered Notes may be withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Date by following the procedures in the Offer to Purchase, but may not thereafter be validly withdrawn, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

Tenders of Notes after the Expiration Date will not be valid, unless the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures specified in the Offer to Purchase are followed.

We expect to purchase all Notes that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase, other than Notes tendered through the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures, on the first business day after the Expiration Date, which is expected to be November 24, 2025 unless extended (the "Settlement Date"). We expect to purchase all Notes that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures, subject to all conditions to the Offers having been satisfied or waived by us, on the third business day after the Expiration Date, which is expected to be November 26, 2025, unless extended.

Tenders of Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 21, 2025, unless extended by us in our sole discretion (the "Withdrawal Deadline"), but, unless otherwise required by applicable law, may not be validly withdrawn thereafter. The Company may extend the Withdrawal Deadline in its sole discretion. In addition, the Company may extend the Expiration Date without extending the Withdrawal Deadline or otherwise reinstating withdrawal rights of Holders, subject to applicable law.
Our obligation to accept for purchase and pay for Notes pursuant to the Offers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Company of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase. The Offers are not conditioned upon the tender of any minimum principal amount of the Notes.
