The Existing Senior Notes will be redeemed on August 31, 2016 (the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price of 100.000% of the principal amount thereof (the “Redemption Price”), plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Senior Notes to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (the “Accrued Interest Amount”).
