The Notes will mature on February 15, 2028, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture dated as of February 9, 2021 (the “Indenture”) relating to the Notes by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee, it is the right of each Holder to require the Company to repurchase the Notes on February 15, 2024 and February 15, 2026 (which is, respectively, approximately three and five years after the Notes were initially issued) (the “Repurchase Right”). The Company is the issuer of the Notes and is obligated, on the Repurchase Date (as defined in the Indenture) occurring on February 15, 2024, to purchase at par all of the Notes, if properly tendered by the Holders in exercise of their Repurchase Right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Company’s Repurchase Right Notice.

As required by rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the Company filed a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO. None of the Company, its board of directors or its employees has made or is making any representation or recommendation to any Holder as to whether to exercise or refrain from exercising its Repurchase Right.
The Repurchase Right entitles each Holder of the Notes to require the Company to repurchase, on February 15, 2024, all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof that is an integral multiple of US$1,000 principal amount. The repurchase price for such Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, as per the terms and conditions of the Indenture and the Notes. As of the date hereof, no interest is payable on the Notes or is expected by the Company to be payable on the Repurchase Date. As of January 12, 2024 there was US$230,000,000.00 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding. If all outstanding Notes are surrendered for repurchase through exercise of the Repurchase Right, the aggregate cash purchase price will be US$230,000,000.00.
