The undersigned hereby acknowledges receipt of the prospectus, dated , 2015, of Tenet Healthcare Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), which, together with this letter of transmittal, constitute the Company’s offer to exchange up to $1,100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its new 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “New 5.00% Notes”), up to $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its new 5.50% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “New 5.50% Notes”) and up to $1,900,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its new 6.75% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “New 6.75% Notes” and, together with the New 5.00% Notes and the New 5.50% Notes, the “new notes”), which have each been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for any and all of its outstanding 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019 issued on March 10, 2014 and June 25, 2014 (the “Old 5.00% Notes”), 5.50% Senior Notes due 2019 issued on September 29, 2014 (the “Old 5.50% Notes”), and 6.75% Senior Notes due 2023 issued on June 16, 2015 and assumed by us on June 16, 2015 (the “Old 6.75% Notes and, together with the Old 5.00% Notes and the Old 5.50% Notes, the “old notes”), respectively, in each case issued and sold in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

YOU MUST SIGN THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL WHERE INDICATED BELOW. PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS SET FORTH BELOW CAREFULLY BEFORE COMPLETING THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL.

This letter of transmittal is to be completed by holders of the Company’s old notes either if certificates representing such notes are to be forwarded herewith or, unless an agent’s message is utilized, tenders of such notes are to be made by book-entry transfer to an account maintained by the exchange agent at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in the prospectus under the heading “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering.”

The undersigned has completed, executed and delivered this letter of transmittal to indicate the action the undersigned desires to take with respect to the exchange offer.

Holders that are tendering by book-entry transfer to the exchange agent’s account at DTC may execute the tender though the DTC Automated Tender Offer Program, for which the exchange offer is eligible. DTC participants that are tendering old notes pursuant to the exchange offer must transmit their acceptance through the Automated Tender Offer Program to DTC, which will edit and verify the acceptance and send an agent’s message to the exchange agent for its acceptance.

If a holder desires to tender old notes pursuant to the exchange offer and (1) certificates representing such old notes are not immediately available, (2) time will not permit this letter of transmittal, certificates representing such old notes or other required documents to reach the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, or (3) the procedures for book-entry transfer (including delivery of an agent’s message) cannot be completed on or prior to the expiration date, such holder may nevertheless tender such old notes with the effect that such tender will be deemed to have been received on or prior to the expiration date if the guaranteed delivery procedures described in the prospectus under “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering—Guaranteed Delivery” are followed. See Instruction 1 below.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, INCLUDING THE INSTRUCTIONS, AND THE PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE COMPLETING THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR CHECKING ANY BOX BELOW.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer, the undersigned hereby tenders to Tenet Healthcare Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), the principal amount at maturity of the Company’s outstanding privately placed and unregistered 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019 issued March 10, 2014 and June 25, 2014 or 5.50% Senior Notes due 2019 issued on September 29, 2014 or 6.75% Senior Notes due 2023, as applicable and as so held by such Holder, as described above.

The undersigned also warrants that it will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the exchange agent or the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, exchange, assignment and transfer of tendered old notes or to transfer ownership of such notes on the account books maintained by DTC. The undersigned agrees to all of the terms of the exchange offer, as described in the prospectus and this letter of transmittal.

Tenders of the old notes pursuant to any one of the procedures described in the prospectus under the caption “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering” and in the instructions to this letter of transmittal will, upon the Company’s acceptance of the old notes for exchange, constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Company in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer.

Unless a box under the heading “Special Issuance Instructions” is checked, by tendering old notes and executing this letter of transmittal, the undersigned hereby represents and warrants that:

(1) the undersigned or any beneficial owner of the old notes is acquiring the new notes in the ordinary course of business of the undersigned (or such other beneficial owner);

(2) neither the undersigned nor any beneficial owner is engaging in or intends to engage in a distribution of the old notes within the meaning of the federal securities laws;

(3) neither the undersigned nor any beneficial owner has an arrangement or understanding with any person or entity to participate in a distribution of the old notes;

(4) neither the undersigned nor any beneficial owner is an “affiliate,” as such term is defined under Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act, of the Company. Upon request by the Company, the undersigned or such beneficial owner will deliver to the Company a legal opinion confirming it is not such an affiliate;

(5) the undersigned and each beneficial owner acknowledges and agrees that any person who is a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or is participating in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing the new notes, must comply with the registration and delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction of the new notes or interests therein acquired by such person and cannot rely on the position of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in certain no-action letters;

(6) a secondary resale transaction described in clause (5) above and any resales of new notes or interests therein obtained by such holder in exchange for old notes or interests therein originally acquired by such holder directly from the Company should be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or Item 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K or the SEC; and

(7) the undersigned is not acting on behalf of any person or entity who could not truthfully make the foregoing representations.

The undersigned may, IF AND ONLY IF ABLE TO MAKE ALL OF THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN CLAUSES (1)-(7) ABOVE, elect to have its applicable series of old notes registered in the shelf registration described in, as applicable, the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 10, 2014, by and between the Company and Barclays Capital Inc., as representative of the several other initial purchasers relating to the Old 5.00% Notes, the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2014, by and between the Company and Barclays Capital Inc., as representative of the several other initial purchasers relating to the Old 5.00% Notes, the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2014, by and between the Company and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representative of the several other initial purchasers relating to the Old 5.50% Notes, or the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 16, 2015, by and between the Company and Barclays Capital Inc., as representative of the several other initial purchasers relating to the Old 6.75% Notes (collectively, the “Exchange and Registration Rights Agreements”). Such election may be made by checking a box under “Special Issuance Instructions” below. By making such election, the undersigned agrees, as a holder of restricted securities participating in a shelf registration, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, the directors and officers of the Company and each person, if any, who controls the Company, within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and judgments caused by (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the shelf registration statement filed with respect to such old notes or the prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or (2) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or judgment arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein based on information relating to the undersigned furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of the undersigned expressly for use therein. Any such indemnification shall be governed by the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreements, including, without limitation, the provisions regarding notice, retention of counsel, contribution and payment of expenses set forth therein. The above summary of the indemnification provision of the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreements is not intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Exchange and Registration Rights Agreements.

If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive new notes for its own account in exchange for old notes, it represents that the old notes to be exchanged for the new notes were acquired by it for its own account as a

result of market-making activities or other trading activities and acknowledges that it may be a statutory underwriter and that it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of such new notes; however, by so acknowledging and delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. If the undersigned is a broker-dealer and old notes held for its own account were not acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, such old notes cannot be exchanged pursuant to the exchange offer.

All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall not be affected by, and shall survive the death, bankruptcy or incapacity of the undersigned and every obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, assigns, trustees in bankruptcy and other legal representatives of the undersigned.

Tendered old notes may be withdrawn at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time on , 2015, or on such later date or time to which the Company may extend the exchange offer.

Unless otherwise indicated herein under the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” below, new notes, and old notes not tendered or accepted for exchange, will be issued in the name of the undersigned. Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” below, new notes, and old notes not tendered or accepted for exchange, will be delivered to the undersigned at the address shown below the signature of the undersigned. In the case of a book-entry delivery of new notes, the exchange agent will credit the account maintained by DTC with any old notes not tendered. The Company has no obligation pursuant to the “Special Issuance Instructions” to transfer any old notes from the name of the registered holder thereof if the Company does not accept for exchange any of the principal amount at maturity of such old notes so tendered.

The new notes will bear interest from the date of original issuance of the old notes or, if interest has already been paid on the old notes, from the date interest was most recently paid. Interest on the old notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue upon the issuance of the new notes.

The letter of transmittal is to be completed by holders of the Company’s outstanding privately placed and unregistered the Old 5.00% Notes, the Old 5.50% Notes, and the Old 6.75% Notes, and assumed by the Company, on June 16, 2015, if certificates representing such old notes are to be forwarded herewith, or, unless an agent’s message is utilized, if tender is to be made by book-entry transfer to the account maintained by DTC, pursuant to the procedures set forth in the prospectus under “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering.” For a holder to properly tender old notes pursuant to the exchange offer, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), together with any signature guarantees and any other documents required by these Instructions, or a properly transmitted agent’s message in the case of a book entry transfer, must be received by the exchange agent at its address set forth herein on or prior to the expiration date, and either (1) certificates representing such old notes must be received by the exchange agent at its address, or (2) such old notes must be transferred pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer described in the prospectus under “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering—Book-Entry Transfer” and a book-entry confirmation must be received by the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date. A holder who desires to tender old notes and who cannot comply with procedures set forth herein for tender on a timely basis or whose old notes are not immediately available must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures discussed below.

THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL, THE OLD NOTES AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT IS AT THE ELECTION AND SOLE RISK OF THE HOLDER AND DELIVERY WILL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE EXCHANGE AGENT. INSTEAD OF DELIVERY BY MAIL, HOLDERS SHOULD USE AN OVERNIGHT OR HAND DELIVERY SERVICE. IN ALL CASES, HOLDERS SHOULD ALLOW FOR SUFFICIENT TIME TO ENSURE DELIVERY TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT BEFORE THE EXPIRATION OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER AND PROPER INSURANCE SHOULD BE OBTAINED. HOLDERS MAY REQUEST THEIR BROKER, DEALER, COMMERCIAL BANK, TRUST COMPANY OR NOMINEE TO EFFECT THESE TRANSACTIONS FOR SUCH HOLDER. HOLDERS SHOULD NOT SEND ANY OLD NOTE, LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENT TO THE COMPANY.

If a holder desires to tender old notes pursuant to the exchange offer and (1) certificates representing such old notes are not immediately available, (2) time will not permit such holder’s letter of transmittal, certificates representing such old notes or other required documents to reach the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, or (3) the procedures for book-entry transfer (including delivery of an agent’s message) cannot be completed on or prior to the expiration date, such holder may nevertheless tender such old notes with the effect that such tender will be deemed to have been received on or prior to the expiration date if the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in the prospectus under “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering—Guaranteed Delivery” are followed. Pursuant to such procedures, (1) the tender must be made by or through an eligible guarantor institution (as defined below), (2) a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form provided by the Company herewith, or an agent’s message with respect to a guaranteed delivery that is accepted by the Company, must be received by the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, and (3) the certificates for the tendered old notes, in proper form for transfer (or a book-entry confirmation of the transfer of such old notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC as described in the prospectus) together with a letter of transmittal (or manually signed facsimile thereof) properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, or a properly transmitted agent’s message, must be received by the exchange agent within three New York Stock Exchange trading days after the execution of the notice of guaranteed delivery.

The notice of guaranteed delivery may be delivered by hand or transmitted by facsimile or mail to the exchange agent and must include a guarantee by an eligible guarantor institution in the form set forth in the notice of guaranteed delivery. For old notes to be properly tendered pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedure, the exchange agent must receive a notice of guaranteed delivery prior to the expiration date. As used herein and in the prospectus, an “eligible institution” is an “eligible guarantor institution” meeting the requirements of the registrar for the old notes and new notes (as defined below, together with the old notes, the “notes”), which requirements include membership or participation in the Security Transfer Agent Medallion Program, or STAMP, or such other “signature guarantee program” as may be determined by the registrar for the notes in addition to, or in substitution for, STAMP, all in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

2. GUARANTEE OF SIGNATURES. Signatures on the letter of transmittal must be guaranteed by a member of or participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Signature Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program or by an eligible guarantor institution unless the old notes tendered hereby are tendered (1) by a registered holder of old notes (or by a participant in DTC whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of such old notes) who has signed the letter of transmittal and who has not completed any of the boxes entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal, or (2) for the account of an eligible guarantor institution. If the old notes are registered in the name of a person other than the signer of the letter of transmittal or if old notes not tendered are to be returned to,

or are to be issued to the order of, a person other than the registered holder or if old notes not tendered are to be sent to someone other than the registered holder, then the signature on the letter of transmittal accompanying the tendered old notes must be guaranteed as described above. Beneficial owners whose old notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee must contact such broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee if they desire to tender old notes. See “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering” in the prospectus.

3. WITHDRAWAL OF TENDERS. Tenders of old notes may be withdrawn at any time on or prior to the expiration date. For a withdrawal of tendered old notes to be effective, a written, telegraphic or facsimile transmission notice of withdrawal must be received by the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date at its address set forth on the cover of the letter of transmittal. Any such notice of withdrawal must (1) specify the name of the person who tendered the old notes to be withdrawn, (2) identify the old notes to be withdrawn, including the certificate number or numbers shown on the particular certificates evidencing such old notes (unless such old notes were tendered by book-entry transfer), the aggregate principal amount at maturity represented by such old notes and the name of the registered holder of such old notes, if different from that of the person who tendered such old notes, (3) be signed by the holder of such old notes in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which such old notes were tendered (including any required signature guarantees), or be accompanied by (i) documents of transfer sufficient to have the trustee register the transfer of the old notes into the name of the person withdrawing such notes, and (ii) a properly completed irrevocable proxy authorizing such person to effect such withdrawal on behalf of such holder (unless the old notes were tendered by book entry transfer), and (4) specify the name in which any such old notes are to be registered, if different from that of the registered holder. If the old notes were tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer set forth in “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering—Book-Entry Transfer” in the prospectus, the notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawal of old notes and must otherwise comply with the procedures of DTC. If the old notes to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, a signed notice of withdrawal is effective immediately upon written or facsimile notice of such withdrawal even if physical release is not yet effected.

Any permitted withdrawal of old notes may not be rescinded. Any old notes properly withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not validly tendered for purposes of the exchange offer. However, properly withdrawn old notes may be retendered by following one of the procedures described in the prospectus under the caption “The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering” at any time prior to the expiration date.

All questions as to the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of such withdrawal notices will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. Neither the Company, any affiliates of the Company, the exchange agent nor any other person shall be under any duty to give any notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

4. PARTIAL TENDERS. Tenders of old notes pursuant to the exchange offer will be accepted only in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. If less than the entire principal amount at maturity of any old notes evidenced by a submitted certificate is tendered, the tendering holder must fill in the principal amount at maturity tendered in the last column of the box entitled “Description of Old Notes” in the letter of transmittal. The entire principal amount at maturity represented by the certificates for all old notes delivered to the exchange agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated. If the entire principal amount at maturity of the applicable series of old notes held by the holder is not tendered, new certificates for the principal amount at maturity of such old notes not tendered and the Company’s new 5.00% Senior Notes due 2019, 5.50% Senior Notes due 2019 or 6.75% Senior Notes due 2023 issued in exchange for any such old notes tendered and accepted will be sent (or, if tendered by book-entry transfer, returned by credit to the account at DTC designated herein) to the holder unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on the letter of transmittal (see Instruction 6), as soon as practicable following the expiration date.

5. SIGNATURE ON THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL; BOND POWERS AND ENDORSEMENTS; GUARANTEE OF SIGNATURES. If the letter of transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the old notes tendered hereby, the signature must correspond exactly with the name(s) as written on the face of certificates without alteration, enlargement or change whatsoever. If the letter of transmittal is signed by a participant in DTC whose name is shown as the owner of the old notes tendered hereby, the signature must correspond with the name shown on the security position listing the owner of the old notes.

If any of the old notes tendered hereby are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign the letter of transmittal.

If any tendered old notes are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many copies of the letter of transmittal and any necessary accompanying documents as there are different names in which certificates are held.

If the letter of transmittal is signed by the holder, and the certificates for any principal amount at maturity of old notes not tendered are to be issued (or if any principal amount at maturity of old notes that is not tendered is to be reissued or returned) to or, if tendered by book-entry transfer, credited to the account of DTC of the registered holder, and new notes exchanged for old notes in connection with the exchange offer are to be issued to the order of the registered holder, then the registered holder need not endorse any certificates for tendered old notes nor provide a separate bond power. In any other case (including if the letter of transmittal is not signed by the registered holder), the registered holder must either properly endorse the certificates for old notes tendered or transmit a separate properly completed bond power with the letter of transmittal (in either case, executed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appear(s) on such old notes, and, with respect to a participant in DTC whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of old notes, exactly as the name(s) of the participant(s) appear(s) on such security position listing), with the signature on the endorsement or bond power guaranteed by a signature guarantor or an eligible guarantor institution, unless such certificates or bond powers are executed by an eligible guarantor institution, and must also be accompanied by such opinions of counsel, certifications and other information as the Company or the trustee for the original old notes may require in accordance with the restrictions on transfer applicable to the old notes. See Instruction 2.

Endorsements on certificates for old notes and signatures on bond powers provided in accordance with this Instruction 5 by registered holders not executing the letter of transmittal must be guaranteed by an eligible institution. See Instruction 2.

If the letter of transmittal or any certificates representing old notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to the exchange agent, in its sole discretion, of their authority so to act must be submitted with the letter of transmittal.

6. SPECIAL ISSUANCE AND SPECIAL DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS. Tendering holders should indicate in the applicable box or boxes the name and address to which old notes for principal amounts at maturity not tendered or new notes exchanged for old notes in connection with the exchange offer are to be issued or sent, if different from the name and address of the holder signing the letter of transmittal. In the case of issuance in a different name, the taxpayer-identification number of the person named must also be indicated. Holders tendering by book-entry transfer may request that old notes not exchanged be credited to such account maintained at DTC as such holder may designate. If no instructions are given, old notes not tendered will be returned to the registered holder of the old notes tendered. For holders of old notes tendered by book-entry transfer, old notes not tendered will be returned by crediting the account at DTC designated in the letter of transmittal.

7. TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER AND IRS FORM W-9. Each tendering holder should provide the exchange agent with its correct taxpayer identification number, which, in the case of a holder who is an individual, is his or her social security number. If the exchange agent is not provided with the correct taxpayer identification number or an adequate basis for an exemption, the holder may be subject to backup withholding in an amount equal to up to 28% of any reportable payments made with respect to the notes and a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an over-payment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service.

To prevent backup withholding on any reportable payments, each holder must provide such holder’s correct taxpayer identification number by completing the IRS Form W-9, certifying that the taxpayer identification number provided is correct (or that such holder is awaiting a taxpayer identification number), and that (1) such holder is exempt from backup withholding, (2) the holder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that such holder is subject to backup withholding as a result of failure to report all interest or dividends or (3) the Internal Revenue Service has notified the holder that such holder is no longer subject to backup withholding. See the instructions to the IRS Form W-9.

If you have not been issued a TIN and have applied for one or intend to apply for one in the near future, you should write “Applied For” in the space provided for the TIN in Part I of the IRS Form W-9, and sign and date the IRS Form W-9. Writing “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon. If “Applied For” is written in Part I, the exchange agent may retain 28% of all payments by it to you prior to the time a properly certified TIN is provided to the exchange agent.

Certain holders (including, among others, certain non-United States individuals) are exempt from these backup withholding and reporting requirements. To prevent possible erroneous backup withholding, an exempt holder that is a U.S. person (as defined in the instructions to the IRS Form W-9) should provide its correct taxpayer identification number and check the “Exempt payee” box on the IRS Form W-9. In order for a non-U.S. person to qualify as exempt, such person must submit an appropriate IRS Form W-8. IRS Forms W-8 may be obtained from the Internal Revenue Service website at www.irs.gov or from the exchange agent.

The Company reserves the right in its sole discretion to take whatever steps are necessary to comply with its obligation regarding backup withholding.

8. TRANSFER TAXES. The Company will pay all transfer taxes, if any, required to be paid by the Company in connection with the exchange of the old notes for the new notes. If, however, new notes, or old notes for principal amounts at maturity not tendered or accepted for exchange, are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the old notes tendered, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of the old notes in connection with the exchange offer, then the amount of any transfer tax (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of the transfer taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to the tendering holder.

9. MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED OLD NOTES. If any certificate representing old notes has been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the holder should promptly contact the exchange agent at the address indicated in the letter of transmittal. The holder will then be instructed as to the steps that must be taken in order to replace the certificate. The letter of transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed certificates have been followed.

10. IRREGULARITIES. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt, acceptance and withdrawal of any tenders of old notes pursuant to the procedures described in the prospectus and the form and validity of all documents will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. The Company reserves the absolute right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to reject any or all tenders of any old notes determined by it not to be in proper form or the acceptance of which may, in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, be unlawful. The Company also reserves the absolute right, in its sole discretion subject to applicable law, to waive or amend any of the conditions of the exchange offer for all holders of old notes or to waive any defects or irregularities of tender for any old notes. The Company’s interpretations of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer (including, without limitation, the instructions in the letter of transmittal) shall be final and binding. No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted. Unless waived, any irregularities in connection with tenders must be cured within such time as the Company shall determine. Each tendering holder, by execution of a letter of transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), waives any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of such tender. Tenders of such old notes shall not be deemed to have been made until such irregularities have been cured or waived. Any old notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the exchange agent to the tendering holders, unless such holders have otherwise provided herein, promptly following the expiration date. None of the Company, any of its affiliates, the exchange agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in such tenders or will incur any liability to holders for failure to give such notification.

11. REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL COPIES. Questions relating to the procedure for tendering, as well as requests for assistance or additional copies of the prospectus, the letter of transmittal and the notice of guaranteed delivery may be directed to the exchange agent at the address and telephone number set forth in the letter of transmittal. Holders may also contact their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the exchange offer.
