The number of shares to be purchased, the proration factor and the price per share under the tender offer are preliminary. Final results will be determined following the expiration of the guaranteed delivery period subject to confirmation by the depositary of the proper delivery of the shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn. The actual number of shares to be purchased, the proration factor and the price per share will be announced following the completion of the confirmation process. Payment for the shares accepted for purchase will commence promptly thereafter. Any shares validly tendered and not purchased due to proration or conditional tenders or shares tendered at a price higher than $22.00 per share will be returned at the company's expense promptly to the tendering stockholder.
