Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and the Underwriters agreed to purchase, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth therein, $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”).
