____________________
(1) Inclusive of an early tender premium of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted
(2) Excluding accrued and unpaid interest

On July 3, 2018, the Issuers accepted the Tendered Notes from the tendering holders in exchange for an aggregate payment of approximately $229,911,030, which represents the total consideration payable under the Offer plus accrued and unpaid interest (the Tender Offer Payment). The Issuers funded the Tender Offer Payment with the net proceeds from their concurrent offering of 8.5% Senior Notes due 2023, which closed on July 2, 2018. The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 10, 2018, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Issuers. The Early Tender and Consent Date has now passed and withdrawal rights under the Offer have expired. Accordingly, the Tendered Notes may not be withdrawn nor may consents be revoked, except as required by applicable law.

As previously announced, in connection with the Offer, the Issuers sought consents from holders to amend the indenture governing the Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default and related provisions (the Proposed Amendments). Adoption of the Proposed Amendments required the consent of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (the Requisite Consents). As of the Early Tender and Consent Date, the Issuers had received the Requisite Consents and, following receipt of the Requisite Consents, the Issuers and the trustee entered into a second supplemental indenture effecting the Proposed Amendments on July 3, 2018, which became effective and operative immediately.

The Offer is being made pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated as of June 12, 2018 and the related letter of transmittal, copies of which may be requested from the Depositary and Information Agent for the Offer, Global Bondholder Services Corporation, by telephone at (866) 470-3900 or (212) 430-3774 (for eligible institutions only).

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
