(1) |
Subject to the Maximum Aggregate Cap and proration if applicable, the principal amount of Notes that is purchased in each tender offer will be determined in accordance with the applicable acceptance priority level (in numerical priority order) specified in this column. |
(2) |
Does not include Accrued Interest on the Notes, which will also be payable as provided in the Offer to Purchase (as defined below). |
(3) |
Includes the Early Tender Premium (as defined below). |
The tender offers are being made upon the terms and subject to conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 26, 2024 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”), which sets forth a detailed description of the tender offers. The Company reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Maximum Aggregate Cap in its sole discretion at any time without extending or reinstating withdrawal rights, subject to compliance with applicable law.
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”). Holders of Notes must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes prior to or at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 9, 2024 (such date and time, as it may be extended with respect to a tender offer, the “Early Tender Date”), to be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below). If a holder validly tenders Notes after the applicable Early Tender Date but prior to or at the applicable Expiration Date, the holder will only be eligible to receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below), plus Accrued Interest. Tendered Notes may be withdrawn prior to or at, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 9, 2024.
In addition to the consideration set forth in the table above, all holders of Notes accepted for purchase in the tender offers will receive accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from the last interest payment date with respect to such Notes to, but not including, the applicable 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 businesses (the “Digital Banking Sale”).
Subject to the Maximum Aggregate Cap and proration if applicable, holders of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers will receive the applicable tender offer consideration set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Tender Offer Consideration”) plus the early tender offer premium for such series of Notes set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Notes, the “Early Tender Premium” and, together with the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, the “Total Consideration”). Holders of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Tender Date, but before or at the Expiration Date, and accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offers will receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, but not the Early Tender Premium. No tenders will be valid if submitted after the Expiration Date. Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date, even if such Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date have a higher acceptance priority level as set forth in the table above than Notes validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date in each tender offer.
The tender offers will expire on the applicable Expiration Date. Except as set forth below, payment for the Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Expiration 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. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make payment for Notes that are validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Date and that are accepted for purchase on an earlier settlement date, provided that the conditions to the satisfaction of the applicable tender offer are satisfied. The Company is not obligated to conduct any early settlement or have any early settlement occur on any particular date.
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.
