Material Changes and Transaction Status
The tender offer was fully subscribed as of the early tender deadline on June 25, 2024. Consequently, the Issuers increased the maximum aggregate principal amount they would accept for purchase (the "Tender Cap") from $450 million to $475 million. Because the amount tendered ($632.6 million) exceeded the revised cap, the Issuers will accept notes on a pro rata basis. No notes tendered after the early deadline will be accepted.

Notes tendered but not accepted for purchase will be promptly credited back to the tendering holders' accounts. The filing includes standard disclaimers stating that the information is not "filed" under Section 18 of the Exchange Act and does not constitute an offer to purchase in jurisdictions where such an offer would be unlawful.
