or the relevant Dealer Manager a firm intention to tender Existing Notes pursuant to the Offers, and if so,
the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Notes tendered or intended to be tendered by such investor.

are allocated, the principal amount thereof may be less or more than the principal amount of Existing Notes
tendered by such Holder.
