The exact Fundamental Change Stock Price and Fundamental Change Effective Date may not be set forth in the table, in which case:

 
if the Fundamental Change Stock Price is between two Fundamental Change Stock Prices in the table or the Fundamental Change Effective Date is between two Fundamental Change Effective Dates in the table, the Fundamental Change Conversion Rate will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the Fundamental Change Conversion Rates set forth for the higher and lower Fundamental Change Stock Prices and the earlier and later Fundamental Change Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;

 
if the Fundamental Change Stock Price is in excess of $100.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Fundamental Change Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement), then the Fundamental Change Conversion Rate will be the Minimum Conversion Rate; and

 
if the Fundamental Change Stock Price is less than $5.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Fundamental Change Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above as described in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement), then the Fundamental Change Conversion Rate will be the Maximum Conversion Rate.

Discount Rate for Purposes of Fundamental Change Dividend Make-Whole Amount:

The discount rate for purposes of determining the Fundamental Change Dividend Make-Whole Amount is 7.30% per annum.
Use of Proceeds:
The Issuer estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $582.0 million (or approximately $669.5 million if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock in full), in each case after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by it.

 
The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to strengthen the balance sheet and enhance strategic flexibility by  repaying (i) its 2019 Term Loan Agreement in full, (ii) outstanding borrowings under its 2024 Revolving Credit Agreement in full and (iii) a portion of its loan due 2027 under its 2024 Term Loan Agreements.

 
If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock, the Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of such additional shares of Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock for general corporate purposes, which may include further payments of outstanding indebtedness, funding working capital, capital expenditures, potential future acquisitions and investments, investments in or loans to its subsidiaries, share repurchases and dividends.

However, there can be no assurance that the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock will be listed, and if listed, that it will continue to be listed.
