Antitrust. Under the HSR Act and the rules that have been promulgated thereunder by the Federal Trade Commission (which we refer to as the “FTC”), certain acquisition transactions may not be consummated unless certain information has been furnished to the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (which we refer to as the “Antitrust Division”) and the FTC and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. The acquisition of Securities by us pursuant to the Offer is subject to such requirements.

On December 21, 2012, the Parent and the Company each filed a Notification and Report Form in connection with the purchase of Securities pursuant to the Offer with the FTC and the Antitrust


Division. Under the provisions of the HSR Act applicable to the Offer, the purchase of Securities pursuant to the Offer may not be consummated until specified information and other documentary material have been furnished to the FTC and the Antitrust Division and the expiration of a 15-calendar day waiting period following the filing by the Parent (or the following business day if the 15th day falls on a weekend or federal holiday), unless such waiting period is earlier terminated by the FTC and the Antitrust Division or extended by a request from the FTC or the Antitrust Division for additional information or documentary material prior to the expiration of the waiting period. The waiting period under the HSR Act was terminated with a grant of early termination on January 3, 2012. As a result, the Antitrust Condition has been satisfied.

Consummation of the Offer may still be challenged, however, by action from private parties or state attorneys general, both of whom are entitled to bring legal action under federal or state antitrust laws under certain circumstances. There can be no assurance that a challenge to the Offer on antitrust grounds will not be made or, if such a challenge is made, what the result would be.

For more information regarding the conditions to the Offer, including conditions with respect to litigation, see Section 2 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer” beginning on page 22.”
