The Offer is described in a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended or supplemented from time to time), filed by Parent and Purchaser with the SEC on June 10, 2024. The Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal have been filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) to the Schedule 14D-9, respectively, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time.
