Use of Proceeds

Special Mandatory Redemption

  In the event that we do not complete our acquisition of the IVC Group on or prior to December 31, 2015 or if, prior to that date, the share purchase agreement with respect to the acquisition is terminated, we will be required to redeem all of the 2022 Notes on the special mandatory redemption date (as defined below) at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the special mandatory redemption date. The “special mandatory redemption date” means the 30th day (or if such day is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) following the earlier of (i) December 31, 2015 and (ii) the date that the share purchase agreement with respect to the acquisition is terminated.

Offer to Repurchase

  Upon a “Change of Control Triggering Event,” holders of the 2022 Notes will have the right to require us, unless we have exercised our right to redeem the 2022 Notes, to repurchase all or a portion of their notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.

* Note: A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time.

We expect that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the closing date which will be on or about the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the notes (this settlement cycle being referred to as “T+5”). Under Rule 15c6-l of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market are generally required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes on the date of pricing or the next succeeding business day will be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of pricing or the next succeeding business day should consult their own advisor.
