Per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered on or before the Early Tender Date, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase for each Series.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 of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes and excludes accrued and unpaid interest to, but, excluding, the Early Settlement Date, which will also be paid on the Early Settlement Date.
Rounded to the nearest tenth of a percentage point for presentation purposes.

Although the Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 2, 2024 (the "Expiration Date"), because holders of Notes subject to the Tender Offer validly tendered and did not validly withdraw Notes on or before the Early Tender Date in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Tender Offer Amount, the Company does not expect to accept for purchase any tenders of Notes after the Early Tender Date.

The settlement date for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase will be September 19, 2024 (the "Early Settlement Date"), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the Tender Offer described in the Offer to Purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, holders who tendered their Notes on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable total tender offer consideration set forth in the table above for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer (the "Total Tender Offer Consideration"), which includes an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. In addition to the applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration, all holders of Notes accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date will receive accrued and unpaid interest on their Notes purchased from the last interest payment date with respect to such Notes up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.

The total principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Date has an aggregate purchase price exceeding the Maximum Tender Offer Amount. As a result, and based on the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer:

all of the 6.79% Senior Debentures due 2027 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
all of the 7.00% Senior Debentures due 2028 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
all of the 6.70% Senior Exchanged Debentures due 2028 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
all of the 6.70% Senior Debentures due 2028 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
all of the 6.90% Senior Debentures due 2029 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
$173,646,000 aggregate principal amount of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2029 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
none of the 8.75% Senior Exchanged Debentures due 2029 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
none of the 8.75% Senior Debentures due 2029 that were tendered as of the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date;
