* Includes the applicable early tender premium per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each series as set forth in the table.

The amounts of each series of Notes that are purchased in the tender offer will be determined in accordance with the "Acceptance Priority Level" (in numerical priority order) as set forth in the table above, subject to the maximum aggregate purchase amount of all Notes that may be purchased in the tender offer of $1,600,000,000 (the "Maximum Tender Offer Amount"). Subject to the terms and conditions of the tender offer, any and all Notes with an Acceptance Priority Level of “1” (the “First Priority Notes”) validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the tender offer will be accepted for purchase by the Company. Notes that are not First Priority Notes (the “Maximum Tender Offer Notes”) will be accepted for purchase up to an aggregate purchase amount that, together with the aggregate purchase amount of the First Priority Notes accepted for purchase, is less than or equal to the Maximum Tender Offer Amount. Notes accepted for purchase with the lowest Acceptance Priority Level validly tendered and not validly withdrawn may be subject to proration in the event that the tender offer is oversubscribed. None of the First Priority Notes will be subject to any proration. The Company may, subject to applicable law, increase or waive the Maximum Tender Offer Amount, in its sole discretion.

The tender offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on March 19, 2008 (the “Expiration Date”), unless extended. Holders of Notes must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 5, 2008 (the "Early Tender Date"), unless extended, in order to be eligible to receive the applicable total consideration specified in the table above. Holders of Notes who validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Date but on or before the Expiration Date and whose notes are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable tender offer consideration, namely the total consideration less the applicable early tender premium of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of First Priority Notes or $20 per $1,000 principal amount of Maximum Tender Offer Notes.

The payment date for First Priority Notes validly tendered on or before the Early Tender Date will be on or before the third business day following the Early Tender Date and is currently expected to be March 10, 2008. The payment date for First Priority Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but on or before the Expiration Date and all Maximum Tender Offer Notes validly tendered on or before the Expiration Date will be on or before the third business day following the Expiration Date and currently is expected to be March 24, 2008. In addition to the applicable total consideration or tender offer consideration, as the case may be, accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the payment date, as applicable, will be paid in cash on all validly tendered notes accepted for purchase in the tender offer.

Holders of notes subject to the tender offer who validly tender their Notes on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 5, 2008 (the "Withdrawal Date") may withdraw their Notes on or prior to the Withdrawal Date but not thereafter except in the limited circumstances described in the Offer to Purchase. Holders of Notes subject to the tender offer who validly tender their Notes after the Withdrawal Date and on or before the Expiration Date may not withdraw their Notes except in the limited circumstances described in the Offer to Purchase.

The Company intends to fund the purchase of the Notes in the tender offer with a portion of the proceeds from its recently completed sale of MidCon Corp., other cash on hand and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under the Company’s existing $1.0 billion senior secured revolving credit facility. On February 21, 2008, after giving effect to the use of a portion of the proceeds from the MidCon transaction to the repayment of our senior secured term loan facility (but without giving effect to the Offer), the Company had a debt balance of approximately $4.5 billion.
