The conversion price of the Preferred Stock on the mandatory conversion date (July 15, 2019) is dependent upon the average market value of the Common Stock for a period of time prior to the mandatory conversion date as set forth in the Pricing Term Sheet filed with the SEC as a Free Writing Prospectus on July 20, 2016. The Preferred Stock automatically converts into Common Stock on July 15, 2019, but holders may elect to convert shares of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock at any time prior to such date at a conversion price of 120.46 shares of Common Stock per share of the Preferred Stock. This represents 12.54 shares of the Preferred Stock. See note (2). If the average market value of the Common Stock during the period of time indicated in note (2) prior to the mandatory conversion date were $73.81 per share (the closing price on August 26, 2016), each share of the Preferred Stock would convert into 132.50 shares of Common Stock. /s/ Brian E.
