        The Exchange Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum number of Old Notes being tendered.

A tender of such Old Notes can be made only by us as the record holder and/or participant in the book-entry transfer facility and pursuant to your instructions. The letter of transmittal is furnished to you for your information only and cannot be used by you to tender Old Notes held by us for your account.

        We request instructions as to whether you wish to tender any or all of the Old Notes held by us for your account pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer. We also request that you confirm that we may on your behalf make the representations, warranties and acknowledgments contained in the letter of transmittal.

the holder are being acquired in the ordinary course of its business, and (iii) the holder has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, and is not engaged and does not intend to engage in, a distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of such New Notes. If the tendering holder is a broker-dealer that will receive New Notes for its own account in exchange for Old Notes, we will (1) represent and warrant on behalf of such broker-dealer that the Old Notes to be exchanged for the New Notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and not directly from the Company for its own account in the initial offering of the Old Notes, and (2) acknowledge on behalf of such broker-dealer that it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such New Notes. By acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such New Notes, such broker-dealer is not deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.
