The redemption date is expected to be November 8, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”). The redemption of the Notes is conditional upon satisfaction of the Condition Precedent (as discussed below).
The redemption price will be 101.5625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
