The Offers will expire at the Expiration Date. The term “Expiration Date” means one minute following 10:59 a.m., Eastern Time, on August 16, 2024, unless Purchaser has extended the Offer (in which event the “Expiration Date” will mean the latest time and date at which the Offers, as so extended by Purchaser, will expire).
