This Purchase Notice can also be used by Holders who wish to<br \/>\nexercise the Put Option without simultaneously delivering their Debentures to<br \/>\nthe Depositary.

The term &#8220;agent153s<br \/>\nmessage&#8221; means a message, transmitted to DTC and received by the Depositary and<br \/>\nforming a part of a book-entry transfer, that states that DTC has received an<br \/>\nexpress acknowledgement that the undersigned agrees to be bound by this Purchase<br \/>\nNotice and that the Company may enforce this Purchase Notice against the<br \/>\nundersigned. Delivery of documents to DTC or the Company does not constitute<br \/>\ndelivery to the Depositary.<\/p>\n<p>The method of delivery of all documents, including Debentures, this Purchase<br \/>\nNotice and any other required documents, is at the election and risk of the<br \/>\nHolder(s) exercising the Put Option. If delivery is by mail, registered mail<br \/>\nwith return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended.<\/p>\n<p>Each Holder who exercises the Put Option, by execution of this Purchase<br \/>\nNotice, waives any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of his or her<br \/>\nDebentures for purchase.<\/p>\n<p>2.<em> Guarantee of Signatures<\/em>.

In such an event,<br \/>\nsignature(s) on such Debentures must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.<br \/>\nIf this Purchase Notice is signed by a person other than the registered<br \/>\nHolder(s) of the Debentures listed, the assignment form on the Debentures must<br \/>\nbe completed and signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered Holder(s)<br \/>\nappear(s) on the Debentures and signature(s) on such Debentures must be<br \/>\nguaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 2.<\/p>\n<p>(e) If this Purchase Notice is signed by attorneys-in-fact, executors,<br \/>\nadministrators, trustees, guardians, partners, officers of corporations or<br \/>\nothers acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so<br \/>\nindicate when signing and must submit proper evidence satisfactory to the<br \/>\nCompany of their authority so to act.<\/p>\n<p>6.<em> Special Payment and Special Delivery Instructions<\/em>.

If no instructions<br \/>\nare given, Debentures for which the Put Option is not exercised or which are not<br \/>\npurchased will be returned to the Holder(s). Any Holder(s) delivering Debentures<br \/>\nby book-entry transfer may request that Debentures for which the Put Option is<br \/>\nnot exercised or which are not purchased be credited to such account at DTC as<br \/>\nsuch Holder(s) may designate under the caption &#8220;Special Issuance Instructions.&#8221;<br \/>\nIf no such instructions are given, any such Debentures for which the Put Option<br \/>\nis not exercised or which are not purchased will be returned by crediting the<br \/>\naccount at DTC designated above.<\/p>\n<p>7.<em> Irregularities<\/em>.

See<br \/>\nSection 4 of the Company Notice for a more detailed description of withdrawal<br \/>\nrights.<\/p>\n<p>11.<em> Transfer Taxes<\/em>. If payment of the Purchase Price is to be made<br \/>\nto, or if Debentures for which the Put Option is not exercised or which are not<br \/>\npurchased are to be registered in the name of, any persons other than the<br \/>\nregistered Holder(s), or if Debentures for which the Put Option is exercised are<br \/>\nregistered in the name of any person other than the person(s) signing this<br \/>\nPurchase Notice, the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the<br \/>\nregistered Holder(s) or such other person) payable on account of the transfer to<br \/>\nsuch other person will be deducted from the Purchase Price unless satisfactory<br \/>\nevidence of the payment of such taxes or an exemption therefrom is submitted.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.<em> Important Tax Information<\/em>. Under U.S. federal income tax law, a<br \/>\nHolder that exercises the Put Option is required to provide the Depositary with<br \/>\nsuch Holder153s current taxpayer identification number (&#8220;TIN&#8221;) on a properly<br \/>\ncompleted Form W-9 (available at the IRS website at www.irs.gov) or,<br \/>\nalternatively, to establish another basis for an exemption from backup<br \/>\nwithholding. If such Holder is an individual, the TIN is his or her Social<br \/>\nSecurity number. If the Depositary is not provided with the correct TIN, the<br \/>\nHolder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service.<br \/>\nIn addition, any payment made to such Holder with respect to Debentures<br \/>\npurchased pursuant to the Put Option may be subject to 28% backup withholding.\n<\/p>\n<p>Certain Holders (including, among others, all corporations and certain<br \/>\nforeign individuals) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting<br \/>\nrequirements. In order for a foreign individual to qualify as an exempt<br \/>\nrecipient, that Holder must submit to the Depositary a properly completed<br \/>\nInternal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN (available at the IRS website at<br \/>\nwww.irs.gov), signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that individual153s<br \/>\nexempt status.<\/p>\n<p>If backup withholding applies, the Paying Agent is required to withhold 28%<br \/>\nof any payment made to the Holder or other payee. Backup withholding is not an<br \/>\nadditional tax. Rather, the federal income tax liability of persons subject to<br \/>\nbackup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding<br \/>\nresults in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained from the Internal<br \/>\nRevenue Service. The Paying Agent cannot refund amounts withheld by reason of<br \/>\nbackup withholding.<\/p>\n<p>Holders are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding<br \/>\ncompliance with the backup withholding rules.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">9<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_stopmodifiedupdate":true,"_modified_date":"","_cloudinary_featured_overwrite":false},"corporate_contracts_companies":[9014],"corporate_contracts_industries":[],"corporate_contracts_types":[9560,9566],"class_list":["post-41096","corporate_contracts","type-corporate_contracts","status-publish","hentry","corporate_contracts_companies-tech-data-corp","corporate_contracts_types-finance","corporate_contracts_types-finance__indenture"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts\/41096","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/corporate_contracts"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41096"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_companies","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_companies?post=41096"},{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_industries","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_industries?post=41096"},{"taxonomy":"corporate_contracts_types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/corporate.findlaw.com\/legal-api\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/corporate_contracts_types?post=41096"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
