Thank you for your question. We are in the process of gathering questions like yours and are
preparing responses to them. We intend to answer these questions at our informational sessions to
be conducted by webinar on the following dates: May 30th, May 31, June 12 and June 13th – specific
times and information to follow. Please be sure to attend one of these session during which we
will make every effort to address your question.
This memo does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy your
securities. The option exchange will involve a formal tender offer for your options. Anyone to whom
the tender offer is directed will be notified when the tender offer commences. We will deliver the
actual tender offer documents to all affected option holders when the tender offer commences, and
those documents will also be available for free at the SEC’s website.
