Interest is payable semiannually in arrears on June 10 and December 10 of each year, commencing on December 10, 2021. The Notes will mature on June 10, 2031 unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guarantees”), jointly and severally, by each of the Guarantors. The Guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors. All or a portion of the Notes may be redeemed at the Issuer’s option in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, prior to their stated maturity, at the make-whole redemption price set forth in the Notes provided, however, that if the Issuer redeems any Notes on or after March 10, 2031 (the date falling three months prior to their stated maturity), the redemption price for the Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the date of redemption.
