each series at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the New Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, up to but not including the date of repurchase. The occurrence of certain of these same change of control events
would also obligate us to offer to repurchase any of our outstanding Old 2021 Notes, Old 5.875% 2022 Notes, Old 5.00% 2022 Notes, and Old 2023 Notes that are not validly tendered in connection with the exchange offers. We may not have sufficient

we are prohibited from repurchasing the New Notes, we could seek the consent of our then existing lenders to repurchase the New Notes or we could attempt to refinance the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If we are unable to obtain a consent
or refinance the debt, we could not repurchase the New Notes. Our failure to repurchase tendered New Notes of each series could constitute a default under the applicable Indenture and might constitute a default under the terms of other indebtedness
that we incur. The term &#147;change of control,&#148; as defined in &#147;Description of the New Notes&#151;Certain Definitions,&#148; is limited to certain specified transactions and may not include other events that might adversely affect our

The liquidity of any market for each series of New Notes will depend on the number of holders of those New Notes, the interest of securities dealers in making a market in those New Notes and
other factors. Accordingly, we cannot assure you as to the development, maintenance or liquidity of any market for any series of New Notes. If the New Notes of any series are traded after their initial issuance, their future trading prices will
depend on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities, our performance and other factors. Historically, the market for <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-investment</FONT> grade debt has been subject to
disruptions that have caused substantial volatility in the prices of securities similar to the New Notes. We cannot assure you that the market, if any, for the New Notes of any series will be free from similar disruptions. Any such disruption may
adversely affect the holders of the New Notes. To the extent that an active trading market for the New Notes of any series does not develop, the liquidity and trading prices for such New Notes may be harmed. Thus, you may not be able to liquidate
your investment rapidly, and your lenders may not readily accept the New Notes as collateral for loans. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Future trading prices of the New Notes will

legend or (iii)&nbsp;Old Notes of that series bear a restricted CUSIP number, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC and cause to become effective a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the Old Notes

the aggregate, is a remote or incidental contingency within the meaning of applicable Treasury regulations. However, there is no assurance that our position would be respected by the IRS or, if challenged, upheld by a court. If the IRS were to
challenge our position and successfully assert that such contingencies are not remote or incidental, the New Notes may constitute contingent payment debt instruments. If the New Notes are treated as contingent payment debt instruments, a holder that
is subject to U.S. federal income tax may be required to accrue OID on the New Notes in excess of stated interest and otherwise applicable OID, and to treat as ordinary income (rather than capital gain) any gain that is recognized upon a sale,
redemption or other taxable disposition of the New Notes. In the event that any of these contingencies were to occur, it would affect the character, amount and timing of any income recognized. The discussions above under &#147;&#151;U.S.

on, and gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, the New Notes paid to a foreign financial institution unless the foreign financial institution is deemed to be compliant with FATCA or enters into an agreement with the IRS to, among
other things, undertake to identify accounts held by certain U.S. persons or U.S.-owned foreign entities, annually report certain information about such accounts, and withhold 30% on payments to account holders whose actions prevent it from
complying with these reporting and other requirements. In addition, FATCA imposes a 30% withholding tax on the same types of payments to a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-financial</FONT> foreign entity of a certain type unless the entity
certifies that it does not have any substantial U.S. owners or furnishes identifying information to the IRS or to the withholding agent regarding each substantial U.S. owner. These rules currently apply to payments of interest (including OID) and
are expected to apply to payments of gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of the New Notes after December&nbsp;31, 2018. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of FATCA to the acquisition,
