The Financing Condition for the Tender Offer as described in the Offer to Purchase has been satisfied. Capitalized terms used in this press release and not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

The applicable total consideration to be paid in the Tender Offer for each Series of Notes accepted for purchase was determined by reference to the applicable fixed spread specified for such Series of Notes over the yield (the "Reference Yield") based on the bid-side price of the applicable U.S. Treasury Securities set forth in the table below (the "Total Tender Offer Consideration"). The Reference Yields listed in the table below were determined (pursuant to the Offer to Purchase) at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, today, January 24, 2025, by the Lead Dealer Managers. The applicable Total Tender Offer Consideration for each Series of Notes includes an Early Tender Premium (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase by the Corporation.

The following table sets forth the aggregate principal amounts of each Series of Notes that the Corporation has accepted for purchase and pricing information for the Tender Offer:

(1)	No representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers listed in this Offer to Purchase or printed on the Notes. They are provided solely for the convenience of Holders of the Notes.
(2)	Includes the Early Tender Premium of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each Series.
(3)	As reported by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offer.

The Corporation expects to accept for payment Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as shown in the table above on January 28, 2025 (the "Early Settlement Date"). Because the total aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeds the $150.0 million 2027 Notes Tender Cap, the Corporation does not expect to accept any further tenders of the 2027 Notes.

The Tender Offer will remain open until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on February 7, 2025, unless extended or earlier terminated as described in the Offer to Purchase (such time and date, as it may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). Each Holder who validly tenders its Notes after the Early Tender Deadline will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Premium of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. In accordance with the terms of the Offer to Purchase, the Corporation reserves the right to increase the Maximum Aggregate Purchase Price or otherwise amend the Tender Offer, subject to applicable law.

All payments for Notes tendered on or before the Early Tender Deadline that are purchased by the Corporation will also include accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of Notes tendered and accepted for purchase from the last interest payment date applicable to the relevant Series of Notes up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date. Notes that have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or before the Early Tender Deadline and are accepted in the Tender Offer will be purchased, retired and cancelled by the Corporation on the Early Settlement Date.
