The Tender Offer will expire at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 23, 2017, unless extended by the Company, and is subject to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.
The total consideration payable to the holders (the "Holders") for each U.S.$1.00 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer will be U.S.$0.60 (the "Total Consideration"). Holders of Notes that are validly tendered at or prior to 12:00 a.m. midnight, New York City time, on May 9, 2017 (one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on May 8, 2017) (the "Early Tender Deadline") and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive the Total Consideration, which includes an early tender premium equal to U.S.$0.05 per U.S.$1.00 principal amount of Notes (the "Early Tender Premium"). Holders that tender Notes after the Early Tender Deadline but at or prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 23, 2017 (the "Expiration Time") and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive only the Tender Offer Consideration, which amount is equal to the Total Consideration less the Early Tender Premium. Holders that validly tender their Notes in the Tender Offer and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the most recent interest payment date on the Notes to, but not including, the settlement date. Holders of Notes that validly tender the Notes before the withdrawal deadline, which is 12:00 a.m. midnight, New York City time, on May 9, 2017 (one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on May 8, 2017) (the "Withdrawal Deadline"), may not withdraw their Notes after the Withdrawal Deadline, unless otherwise required by law. Holders that tender their Notes after the Withdrawal Deadline may not withdraw their Notes, unless otherwise required by law.
If Notes are validly tendered such that the aggregate principal amount tendered exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, the Company will accept for purchase an amount no greater than the Maximum Tender Amount. In such circumstance, the amount of Notes purchased will be prorated such that the Maximum Tender Amount is not exceeded (with appropriate adjustment to avoid purchase of Notes in a principal amount other than an integral multiple of U.S.$1.00), and the Company will determine the proration factor as soon as practicable after the Expiration Time (defined below). All Notes tendered will be prorated together and no priority will be given to any Notes tendered. Subject to any extension, the Company will announce the results of proration by press release promptly on the business day following the Expiration Time.
Maxcom reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to extend, withdraw or terminate the Tender Offer, increase or decrease the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, waive any of the conditions of the Tender Offer or otherwise amend the terms of the Tender Offer.
