1Subject to the Maximum Aggregate Cap and proration, the principal amount of Notes being purchased in each tender offer has been determined in accordance with the applicable acceptance priority level (in numerical priority order) specified in this column.
2Does not include Accrued Interest on the Notes, which will also be payable as provided in the Offer to Purchase. Includes the Early Tender Premium (as defined below).
3Subject to the satisfaction of the M&A Condition (as defined below).
The tender offers for the Notes will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 24, 2024, or any other date and time to which the Company extends the applicable tender offer (such date and time, as it may be extended with respect to a tender offer, the “Expiration Date”). The Company has elected not to exercise its option to have an early settlement date for the tender offers at this time as the conditions to the tender offers, including the M&A Condition, have not yet been satisfied or waived. Payment for the Notes that are validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and that are accepted for purchase will be made on a date promptly following the Expiration Date, which is currently anticipated to be September 26, 2024, the second business day after the Expiration Date (such date, the “Final Settlement Date”), subject to the satisfaction of the M&A Condition.
As the aggregate purchase price of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date exceeded the Maximum Aggregate Cap, no Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase. As described in the Offer to Purchase, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be accepted based on the acceptance priority levels noted in the table above. As the aggregate principal amount of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn exceeds the Maximum Aggregate Cap, the Notes will be accepted for purchase on a pro rata basis as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, subject to a proration rate of approximately 70.879999% in the case of the 5.125% Senior Notes due 2029. All of the 5.250% Senior Notes due 2030 will be accepted for purchase. None of the 5.000% Senior Notes due 2028 will be accepted for purchase. Notes tendered and not purchased on the Final Settlement Date will be returned to holders promptly after the Final Settlement Date. The consideration to be paid for the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the applicable tender offer is the amount set forth in the table above under the heading “Total Consideration.” The amounts set forth in the table above under the heading “Total Consideration” include an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”). Each holder who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw its Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive the applicable “Total Consideration” set forth in the table above under the heading “Total Consideration,” which includes the Early Tender Premium, plus Accrued Interest.
In addition to the consideration set forth in the table above, holders of Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued interest from, and including, the most recent applicable interest payment date preceding the Final Settlement Date to, but not including, the Final Settlement Date (the “Accrued Interest”). The Total Consideration, Accrued Interest and the costs and expenses of the tender offers are expected to be paid with funds from the closing of the previously announced sale of the Company’s Digital Banking segment (the “Digital Banking Sale”).
The tender offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, which are specified in the Offer to Purchase. If any of the conditions are not satisfied (including the condition related to the completion of the Digital Banking Sale described in the Offer to Purchase (the “M&A Condition”)), the Company is not obligated to accept for payment, or pay for, and may delay the acceptance for payment of, any tendered Notes and may even terminate one or more tender offers. The Company reserves the right to (i) extend or terminate any of the tender offers (including as result of the M&A Condition having not been satisfied), and without extending withdrawal rights, (ii) waive any condition (other than the M&A Condition), and (iii) amend any of the tender offers in any respect, in each case, with respect to one or more tender offers without taking a similar action with respect to any other tender offer.
