Existing Securities validly tendered may be withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date, but not thereafter, except as required by applicable law. Payment for the Existing Securities validly tendered and accepted for payment is expected to be made, subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer to Purchase, on July 21, the third business day following the Expiration Date (the "Settlement Date").
Payment for the Existing Securities, if any, validly tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedures and accepted for payment is expected to be made, subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer to Purchase, on July 21, the first business day following the guaranteed delivery date.
