This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other security of the Issuers, and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale, of the Notes or any other security of the Issuers in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful. This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption under the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing the 2026 Notes. The Notes Offering is being made solely pursuant to a private offering memorandum and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as are permitted under applicable law.
