 laws, be deemed not to be a breach of our obligations under such provisions. Repurchase by Third Party Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, we will be deemed to satisfy our obligations to repurchase notes pursuant to the provisions described above if (i) one or more third parties conduct the repurchase offer and repurchase tendered notes in a manner that would have satisfied our obligations to do the same if conducted directly by us; and (ii) an owner of a beneficial interest in any note repurchased by such third party or parties will not receive a lesser amount (as a result of withholding or other similar taxes) than such owner would have received had we repurchased such note. Consolidation, Merger and Asset Sale For purposes of the notes, the description below under this section titled “—Consolidation, Merger and Asset Sale” supersedes, in its entirety, the information in the accompanying prospectus under the caption “Description of Debt Securities—Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets.” We will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or (directly, or indirectly through one or more of our subsidiaries) sell, lease or otherwise transfer, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of the assets of us and our subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another person (a “business combination event”), unless:

| • |     | the resulting, surviving or transferee person is us or, if not us, is a “qualified successor entity”                                                                                                                                     
 (as defined below under the caption “—Definitions”) (such qualified successor entity, the “successor entity”) duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of           
 Columbia that expressly assumes (by executing and delivering to the trustee, at or before the effective time of such business combination event, a supplemental indenture) all of our obligations under the indenture and the notes; and |

| • |     | immediately after giving effect to such business combination event, no “default” (as defined below 
 under the caption “—Definitions”) will have occurred and be continuing.                            |

At the effective time of a business combination event that complies with the provisions described above, the successor entity (if not us) will succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, us under the indenture and the notes, and, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor company will be discharged from its obligations under the indenture and the notes.
