For the 2027 Convertible Notes, the date presented is the date on which the Company delivered its notice of full redemption of the 2027 Convertible Notes, which resulted in the 2027 Convertible Notes being convertible at any time thereafter until 5:00pm New York City time, on February 20, 2025. See below under “Conversions and Redemption of Convertible Notes” for further information.
