Holders tendering Securities after the Early Tender Deadline and at or prior to the Expiration Date will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below), which will equal the Total Consideration for such series of Securities less the Early Tender Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the final settlement date, which is expected to be June 20, 2025 (such date and time, as it may be extended, the "Final Settlement Date," and of the Early Settlement Date and Final Settlement Date, a "Settlement Date"). Tendered Securities may be withdrawn from the Tender Offers at or prior to, but not after, 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 3, 2025.

The "Total Consideration" for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities of a series validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offers will be the applicable "Total Consideration" for such series of Securities set forth in the table above, which is inclusive of the amount in cash set forth in the table above under the heading "Early Tender Premium" (the "Early Tender Premium"). The "Tender Offer Consideration" for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities of a series validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline but on or prior to the Expiration Date will only be eligible to receive an amount equal to the applicable "Tender Offer Consideration" for such series of Securities set forth in the table above. The aggregate amount that all Holders are entitled to receive for their Securities that are validly tendered and accepted for purchase by Sabre GLBL in the Tender Offers, excluding accrued interest, is referred to as the "Aggregate Purchase Price."

Subject to the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, proration and all conditions to the Tender Offers having been satisfied or waived by us, the amount of a series of Securities that is purchased in the Tender Offers will be based on the order of priority for such series of Securities set forth in the table above (the "Acceptance Priority Level"). The purchase of one series of Securities is not conditioned on the purchase of any other series of Securities.

Subject to the Acceptance Priority Levels, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, proration and all conditions to the Tender Offers having been satisfied or waived by us: 

• all Securities tendered at or before the Early Tender Deadline having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted for purchase before any Securities tendered at or before the Early Tender Deadline having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted for purchase;
• all Securities validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted for purchase before any Securities tendered after the Early Tender Deadline having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted for purchase in the Tender Offers; and
• all Securities tendered at or before the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted for purchase in priority to Securities tendered after the Early Tender Deadline, even if such Securities tendered after the Early Tender Deadline have a higher Acceptance Priority Level than Securities tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline.

If there are sufficient remaining funds to purchase some, but not all, of the Securities of any series, the amount of Securities purchased in that series may be subject to proration.

On May 20, 2025, Sabre GLBL announced the pricing of an offering of $1.325 billion aggregate principal amount of 11.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 (the "Financing Transaction"). Sabre GLBL currently anticipates, subject to execution of definitive documentation and certain customary closing conditions, that the Financing Transaction will result in Sabre GLBL's receipt of net cash proceeds which will be sufficient to fund the Aggregate Purchase Price and accrued interest for all Securities validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offers and accepted for purchase by Sabre GLBL, subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offers.  No assurances can be given that the Financing Transaction will be completed. The Tender Offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including the consummation of the Financing Transaction. Such conditions may be waived by Sabre GLBL in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law. Any waiver of a condition by Sabre GLBL will not constitute a waiver of any other condition.

In this press release, we refer to all Securities that have been validly tendered and not subsequently validly withdrawn as having been "validly tendered." This announcement does not contain the full terms and conditions of the Tender Offers, which are contained in the offers to purchase for cash, dated May 20, 2025 (as they may be amended or supplemented, collectively, the "Offer to Purchase").
