The Offer is conditioned on satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in the Offer to Purchase, including the condition that a minimum of $475 million aggregate face amount of Securities be validly tendered and not validly withdrawn (the "Minimum Tender Condition") pursuant to the Offer. As of the date hereof, the Company has received tenders of approximately $461.9 million face amount of Securities of all series and thus the Minimum Tender Condition has not yet been satisfied.

As of the date hereof, the Company has amended the Offer by extending the Early Tender Time from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 12, 2012 to Midnight, New York City time, on January 20, 2012 which is also the "Expiration Time" of the Offer. Accordingly, the Early Tender Time and the Expiration Time are now the same. Except as set forth in this release, all terms and conditions of the Offer will remain the same. For the avoidance of doubt, any Securities that have been or are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the extended Early Tender Time will receive, if the conditions specified in the Offer are satisfied or waived, the Total Consideration set forth above.

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. is serving as Dealer Manager for the Offer. Persons with questions regarding the Offer should contact Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. at (855) 287-1922 (toll-free). Requests for documents may be directed to Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Information Agent, at 212-430-3774 or (866) 470-3700.

This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the Securities or any other security. The Offer is made only by the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal. The Offer is not being made to security holders in any jurisdiction in which the making or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction. In any jurisdiction in which the Offer is required to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, it shall be deemed to be made by the Dealer Manager on behalf of the Company.
