Guaranteed Delivery Time	5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second business day after the Expiration Time (as defined below) (such day, the "Guaranteed Delivery Date"), expected to be March 18, 2025, assuming that the Tender Offer is not extended or earlier terminated.

The Tender Offer is being made upon, and is subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated March 10, 2025 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related Notice of Guaranteed Delivery (the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, together with the Offer to Purchase, the "Offer Documents").
