The Tender Offer is made on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the related Offer to Purchase dated September 23, 2026 (the "Offer to Purchase"), as modified by this press release. As previously announced, the Company intends to use cash on hand in addition to the proceeds from the previously announced and priced concurrent senior secured notes offering to fund the consideration for a portion of its outstanding Bonds accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this press release have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

The Settlement Date for Bonds validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase is expected to be October 2, 2026, the second business day after the Expiration Date ("T+2"). Except as set forth herein, all other terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, including the Financing Condition, as described in the Offer to Purchase remain unchanged.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Bonds. The Company is making the Tender Offer only by, and pursuant to, the terms of the Offer to Purchase, as modified by this press release. None of the Company, the Dealer Managers, or the Tender and Information Agent makes any recommendation as to whether Holders of the Bonds should tender or refrain from tendering their Bonds. Holders of the Bonds must consult their own investment and tax advisors and make their own decisions as to whether to tender their Bonds and, if so, the principal amount of the Bonds to tender. The Tender Offer is not being made to Holders of the Bonds in any jurisdiction in which the making or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction. In any jurisdiction in which the securities laws or blue sky laws require the Tender Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Tender Offer will be deemed to be made on behalf of the Company by the Dealer Managers, or one or more registered brokers or dealers that are licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of any securities, including the senior secured notes in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state or jurisdiction. The senior secured notes and the related guarantees were offered in the United States pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and were not offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act), except to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
