The Exchange Offers expired at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on June 23, 2021 (the “Expiration Date”). The “Settlement Date” with respect to the Exchange Offers will be promptly following the Expiration Date and is expected to be June 25, 2021. Upon the settlement of the Exchange Offers, holders of Original Notes who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw such notes prior to the Expiration Date will receive a like principal amount of Exchange Notes of the applicable series.

The terms of the Exchange Notes to be issued upon the settlement of the Exchange Offers are substantially identical to the terms of the corresponding series of Original Notes, except that the Exchange Notes have been registered under the Securities Act and the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the Original Notes will not apply to the Exchange Notes.

The Exchange Offers were made pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated May 25, 2021 (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the "Prospectus").

The Bank of New York Mellon acted as Exchange Agent for the Exchange Offers.

The Exchange Offers are being made solely pursuant to the prospectus and related documents. The Exchange Offers are not being made to holders of Original Notes 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.

This communication is not a prospectus for the purposes of the Prospectus Regulation. The expression “Prospectus Regulation” means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129, as amended, and includes any relevant implementing measure in any member state (“Member State”) of the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) which has implemented the Prospectus Regulation.

Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as amended (the “PRIIPs Regulation”), for offering the Exchange Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering of the Exchange Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

Consequently, no key information document required by the PRIIPs Regulation as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the EUWA (the “UK PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Exchange Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Exchange Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.

Forward-Looking Statements

This communication contains “forward-looking statements” — that is, statements related to future, not past, events. In this context, forward-looking statements often address our expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “would,” or “target.” Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain. Statements with respect to the Exchange Offers are forward-looking statements, based on our current expectations for the transactions, and are subject to the risk that the transactions may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, and that the final terms of the transactions may differ, possibly materially, from those described in this press release due to future events. The forward-looking statements included in this press release are made only as of the date of this press release, and we undertake no obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.
