In addition, Eligible Holders (as defined below) whose Old Notes are validly tendered (not validly withdrawn) and accepted for exchange pursuant to the terms of the applicable Exchange Offers will receive in cash accrued and unpaid interest from the last applicable interest payment date to, but excluding, the date on which the exchange of such Old Notes is settled, less the amount of any pre-issuance interest on the New Notes exchanged therefor, and amounts due in lieu of fractional amounts of New Notes.
Based on the principal amount of Old Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 5, 2026 and in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offers, the Old Notes Issuers expect to accept, on August 12, 2026, (i) all of the Pool 1 Notes at Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 7 and (ii) all of the Pool 2 Notes at Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 5.
The Exchange Offers described in this press release are being conducted upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offering memorandum, dated July 23, 2026 (as amended and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Offering Memorandum”).
Eligible Holders of Old Notes who validly tendered their Old Notes at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 5, 2026 (the “Early Tender Date”), who did not validly withdraw their tenders and whose Old Notes are accepted for exchange, will receive an early exchange premium as set forth in the tables above (the “Early Exchange Premium”).

The Exchange Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 20, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company (the “Expiration Date”). The withdrawal deadline for the Exchange Offers occurred at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 5, 2026 (the “Withdrawal Deadline”). As a result, tenders of Old Notes submitted in the Exchange Offers after the Withdrawal Deadline will be irrevocable except in the limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law (as determined by the Company).

The deadlines set by each clearing system for the submission and withdrawal of exchange instructions will also be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offering Memorandum, eligibility certification and Canadian Eligibility Form.
