Results of the 2021 Offer

As set out in the Tender Offer and Solicitation Memorandum, the Company may at any time before any acceptance by the Company of Securities validly tendered in the relevant Offer(s), subject to applicable law, at its option and its sole and absolute discretion, extend, re-open or amend an Offer in any respect (including, but not limited to, any extension, re-opening or amendment, as applicable, in relation to the Total 2021 Securities Purchase Funds Available).
