The following table sets forth some of the terms of the Offer:

2. The Total Consideration (as defined below) for Notes validly tendered (and not subsequently validly withdrawn) prior to or at the Early Tender Deadline (as defined below) and accepted for purchase was calculated using the fixed spread for the Notes (as specified above) over the yield based on the bid side price of the Reference U.S. Treasury Security (as specified above) and is inclusive of the Early Tender Premium (as defined below). In addition, holders whose Notes are accepted will also receive Accrued Interest (as defined below) on such Notes.

No tenders will be valid if submitted after the Expiration Date.

The total consideration (the “Total Consideration”) paid in the Offer for Notes that were validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on November 25, 2025 (the “Early Tender Deadline”) and accepted for purchase was determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the fixed spread for the Notes specified in the table above plus the yield to maturity of the Reference U.S. Treasury Security specified in the table above and in the Offer to Purchase and includes an early tender premium of $50.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”).
