(1) Per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase for each Series. Excludes accrued and unpaid interest, which also will be paid to, but excluding, the applicable Settlement Date.

(2) Per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase for each Series (the "Early Tender Premium").

(3) Per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered on or before the Early Tender Date, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase for each Series. Includes the Early Tender Premium, but excludes accrued and unpaid interest, which also will be paid to, but excluding, the applicable Settlement Date.

The amounts of each series of Notes that are purchased in the Tender Offer will be determined in accordance with the priorities identified in the column "Acceptance Priority Level" in the table above with "1" having the highest priority and "7" having the lowest priority. The Tender Offer may be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount of Notes that is validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would otherwise cause the Maximum Tender Offer Amount to be exceeded, with equal proration applied for Notes having the same Acceptance Priority Level, if applicable.

The Tender Offer is subject to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase. The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered, and the Tender Offer may be amended, extended or terminated.

The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2024, unless extended (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the "Expiration Date") or earlier terminated. In order to receive the applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration, holders of Notes subject to the Tender Offer must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 17, 2024, unless extended (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the "Early Tender Date"). Holders of Notes subject to the Tender Offer who validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Date and on or before the Expiration Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase, will receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration, assuming the Maximum Tender Offer Amount is not purchased on the Early Settlement Date (as defined below). If the Maximum Tender Offer Amount is fully purchased as of the Early Settlement Date, holders who validly tender Notes after the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase.

The applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration for each $1,000 in principal amount of Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for payment pursuant to the Tender Offer is described in the table above. The Tender Offer Consideration is the applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration minus the applicable Early Tender Premium for each series of Notes as set forth in the table above.

In addition to the applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration or applicable Tender Offer Consideration, as the case may be, accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the applicable Settlement Date (as defined below) will be paid in cash on all validly tendered Notes accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer. With respect to any valid tender of any 6.79% Senior Debentures due 2027, 7% Senior Debentures due 2028, 6.70% Senior Exchanged Debentures due 2028, 6.70% Senior Debentures due 2028, 6.90% Senior Debentures due 2029, 8.75% Senior Exchanged Debentures due 2029 or 8.75% Senior Debentures due 2029 (collectively, the "Eligible Notes") accepted for purchase by the Company, the Company will also pay a soliciting broker fee of $2.50 per $1,000 principal amount of such series of Eligible Notes to retail brokers that are appropriately designated by their beneficial holder clients to receive this fee (except for Eligible Notes tendered by a retail broker for its own account), provided that such fee will only be paid with respect to tenders by beneficial holders whose aggregate principal amount of such series of Eligible Notes is $250,000 or less. The Total Tender Offer Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest for Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase will be paid by the Company in same day funds promptly following the Early Tender Date (the "Early Settlement Date"). The Company expects that the Early Settlement Date will be as early as September 19, 2024. The Tender Offer Consideration plus accrued and unpaid interest for Notes that are validly tendered after the Early Tender Date and on or before the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase will be paid by the Company in same day funds promptly following the Expiration Date (the "Final Settlement Date" and together with the Early Settlement Date, the "Settlement Dates"). The Company expects that the Final Settlement Date will be October 4, 2024, assuming the Maximum Tender Offer Amount is not purchased on the Early Settlement Date. No tenders will be valid if submitted after the Expiration Date. If the Company purchases the Maximum Tender Offer Amount of Notes on the Early Settlement Date, holders who validly tender Notes after the Early Tender Date but on or before the Expiration Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase. Holders of Notes subject to the Tender Offer who validly tender their Notes on or before the Early Tender Date may not withdraw their Notes after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 17, 2024, unless extended (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the "Withdrawal Date"), except in the limited circumstances described in the Offer to Purchase. Holders of Notes subject to the Tender Offer who validly tender their Notes after the Withdrawal Date but on or before the Expiration Date may not withdraw their Notes except in the limited circumstances described in the Offer to Purchase.
