Pursuant to the Notice of Full Conditional Redemption, the Company gave holders of the Notes notice that, upon the satisfaction of the Condition Precedent (as defined below), it intends to redeem all $180,000,000 of its outstanding Notes on March 6, 2023 (the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to 100.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture), if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
