The Company believes that the holders of the New Notes (the &ldquo;Noteholders&rdquo;) have received substantially the same protections
that are provided by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (as amended, the &ldquo;TIA&rdquo;) even though the New Notes Indenture has not
yet been deemed qualified under the TIA. The Company is of the view that the qualification now of the New Notes Indenture does not substantially
change the rights and protections of the Noteholders, since the New Notes Indenture was drafted to comply with the provisions of the
TIA and the Noteholders have received significant disclosure regarding, and were involved with the drafting of, the New Notes Indenture.
Even though the Company does not view the rights and protections of the Noteholders as substantially changing with the qualification
of the Form T-3, it would prefer to finalize the process and complete the technical compliance with the TIA by qualifying the Form T-3.</FONT></P>

qualification process, in addition to ensuring adequate disclosure to the Noteholders, serves to ensure the provisions of the indenture
comply with the TIA. The mandatory indenture provisions of the TIA are intended to provide certain procedural safeguards for bondholders
and do so by addressing several categories of protection, including: (1) eligibility and disqualification of the trustee, including conflicting
interests, (2) preferential collection of claims by the trustee, (3) maintenance of bondholders&rsquo; lists by the trustee, (4) the
provision of certain reports by the trustee to bondholders, (5) reports required to be delivered by the issuer with respect to, among
other things, indenture compliance, (6) duties of the trustee, (7) directions of the bondholders, and (8) special powers of the trustee.
As discussed in our letter dated June 15, 2021, the New Notes Indenture was drafted to incorporate the provisions of the TIA where applicable.
These provisions are woven throughout the New Notes Indenture and address each of the above categories of protection. For example:</FONT></P>
