The Put Right expires at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, April 29, 2024.

As required by rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company will file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO today. In addition, documents specifying the terms, conditions, and procedures for exercising the Put Right will be available through the Depository Trust Company and the paying agent, which is Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas. None of the Company, its board of directors, or its executive management has made or is making any representation or recommendation to any holder as to whether to exercise or refrain from exercising the Put Right.

The Put Right entitles each holder of the Notes to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of such holder’s Notes in principal amounts equal to US$1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. The repurchase price for such Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, May 1, 2024, which is the date specified for repurchase in the Indenture (the “2024 Repurchase Date”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture and the Notes. The 2024 Repurchase Date is an interest payment date under the terms of the Indenture and the Notes. Accordingly, on May 1, 2024, being the interest payment date, the Company will pay accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Notes through April 30, 2024, to all holders who were holders of record as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, April 15, 2024, regardless of whether the Put Right is exercised with respect to such Notes. On the 2024 Repurchase Date, there will be no accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes. As of March 26, 2024, there was US$862,500,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding. If all outstanding Notes are surrendered for repurchase through exercise of the Put Right, the aggregate cash purchase price will be US$862,500,000.

The opportunity for holders of the Notes to exercise the Put Right commences today, March 27, 2024, and will terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, April 29, 2024. In order to exercise the Put Right, a holder must follow the transmittal procedures set forth in the Company’s Put Right Notice to holders (the “Put Right Notice”), which is available through the Depository Trust Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas. Holders may withdraw any previously tendered Notes pursuant to the terms of the Put Right at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, April 29, 2024, which is the second business day immediately preceding the 2024 Repurchase Date, or as otherwise provided by applicable law.
