EXPIRATION 12:00 MIDNIGHT, AT THE END OF THE DAY, NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON DECEMBER 11, 2023 

By checking on of the following boxes below INSTEAD OF THE BOX UNDER “SHARES TENDERED AT A PRICE DETERMINED PURSUANT TO THE OFFER,” you are tendering shares at the price checked. This action would result in none of the shares being purchased if the Purchase Price (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) is less than the price checked below. If you want to tender portions of the shares at more than one price, you must complete a separate Letter of Transmittal for each price at which you tender shares. The same shares cannot be tendered at more than one price.

PRICE (IN DOLLARS) PER SHARE AT WHICH SHARES ARE BEING TENDERED

☐ $9.50              ☐ $9.70              ☐ $9.90              ☐ $10.10              ☐ $10.30              ☐ $10.50              ☐ $10.70              ☐ $10.90

☐ $9.60              ☐ $9.80              ☐ $10.00            ☐ $10.20              ☐ $10.40              ☐ $10.60              ☐ $10.80              ☐ $11.00

OR SHARES TENDERED AT A PRICE DETERMINED PURSUANT TO THE OFFER

☐ By checking this ONE BOX INSTEAD OF ONE OF THE PRICE BOXES ABOVE, you are tendering shares and are willing to accept the Purchase Price in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

CONDITIONAL TENDER

 

You may condition the tender of shares on our purchasing a specified minimum number of the tendered shares. Unless the minimum number of shares you indicate below is purchased by us in our Offer, none of the shares you tender will be purchased. It is your responsibility to calculate that minimum number of shares that must be purchased if any are purchased, and you are urged to consult your tax advisor before completing this section. Unless the following box has been checked and a minimum number of shares specified, your tender will be deemed unconditional.

 

☐     The minimum number of shares that must be purchased, if any are purchased, is ______________shares. If, because of proration, the minimum number of shares that you designated above will not be purchased, we may accept conditional tenders by random lot, if necessary. However, to be eligible for purchase by random lot, you must have tendered all the shares and checked the following box:

 

☐     The tendered shares represent all shares held by me.

 

ODD LOTS

 

As described in the Offer to Purchase, under certain conditions, stockholders holding fewer than 100 shares may have all of their shares accepted for payment before any proration of other tendered shares. This preference is not available to partial tenders or to record holders of an aggregate of 100 or more shares, even if these holders have separate accounts representing fewer than 100 shares. Accordingly, this section is to be completed only if shares are being tendered by or on behalf of a person owning, of record, an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares. The undersigned either (check one box) 

☐     is the record owner of fewer than 100 shares in the aggregate, all of which are being tendered 

☐     is a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company, or other nominee that (a) is tendering for the beneficial owner(s) shares with respect to which he or she is the record holder, and (b) believes, based upon representations made to him or her by the beneficial owner(s), that each such person is the beneficial owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares and is tendering all of such shares 

In addition, the undersigned is tendering shares either (check one box): 

☐     at the Purchase Price; or 

☐     at the price per share indicated above in the section titled “Price (in Dollars) per Share at which Shares Are Being Tendered.”

Under penalties of perjury, I certify that: (1) The number shown on this form is my correct Taxpayer Identification Number; (2) I am not subject to backup withholding either because I am exempt from backup withholding, I have not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) that I am subject to backup withholding as a result of failure to report all interest or dividends, or the IRS has notified me that I am not subject to backup withholding; and (3) I am a U.S. Person (or a U.S. resident alien).
 
Certification Instructions - You must cross out Item (2) if you have been notified by the IRS that you are subject to backup withholding because of underreporting interest or dividends on your tax return. However, if after being notified by the IRS that you were subject to backup withholding you received another notification from the IRS stating that you are no longer subject to backup withholding, do not cross out item (2).

In order to satisfy the Exchange/Paying Agent that a foreign individual qualifies as an exempt recipient, such stockholder(s) must submit a statement, signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that individual’s exempt status, on the appropriate and properly completed Form W-8, or successor form. Such statements can be obtained from the Exchange/Paying Agent.
