(1) The applicable page on Bloomberg from which the Dealer Manager will quote the bid-side price of the reference U.S. Treasury Security. In the above table, “UST” denotes a U.S. Treasury Security.
The Offer is being made upon, and is subject to, the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated August 15, 2019 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related Letter of Transmittal. The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on September 12, 2019, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company (the “Expiration Date”). Tenders of Notes may be withdrawn at any time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 28, 2019 (the “Early Tender Deadline”), but may not be withdrawn thereafter except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law.
The total consideration (the “Total Consideration”) paid in the Offer for Notes that are validly tendered and not withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for purchase will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to a fixed spread over the yield to maturity of the Reference U.S. Treasury Security specified in the table above and in the Offer to Purchase and will include an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”). Holders of Notes who validly tender their Notes following the Early Tender Deadline and on or prior to the Expiration Date will only receive the applicable “Tender Offer Consideration” per $1,000 principal amount of any such Notes tendered by such holders that are accepted for purchase, which is equal to the Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Premium. The Total Consideration will be determined at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on August 29, 2019 unless extended by the Company (the “Tender Offer Price Determination Date”).
Tenders of Notes will be accepted only in principal amounts equal to $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Holders who tender less than all of their Notes must continue to hold Notes of such series in the minimum authorized denomination of $2,000 principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.
Payments for Notes purchased will include accrued and unpaid interest from and including the most recent interest payment date for the Notes up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date. The settlement date for Notes that are validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Deadline (the “Early Settlement Date”) is expected to be August 30, 2019, subject to all conditions to the Offer having been either satisfied or waived by the Issuers. The settlement date for the Notes that are tendered following the Early Tender Deadline but on or prior to the Expiration Date is expected to be September 16, 2019 (the “Final Settlement Date”), subject to all conditions to the Offer having been either satisfied or waived by the Issuers, assuming Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the Tender Cap are not purchased on the Early Settlement Date.
Subject to the Tender Cap, all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted before any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline. Even if the Offer is not fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, subject to the Tender Cap, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted for purchase in priority to Notes tendered after the Early Tender Deadline.
Notes may be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would cause the Tender Cap to be exceeded. Furthermore, if the Offer is fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, holders who validly tender Notes following the Early Tender Deadline will not have any of their Notes accepted for payment.
The Company’s obligation to consummate the Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, which are more fully described in the Offer to Purchase, including, among others, the Issuers’ receipt of aggregate proceeds (before underwriter’s discounts and commissions and other offering expenses) of at least $500 million from an offering of new senior notes, on terms satisfactory to the Issuers. There can be no assurance such conditions will be satisfied.

WinSpirit Launches “Wish Express” — A Holiday Campaign Bringing Back the Magic of Dreams
This festive season, WinSpirit Casino has launched a heartwarming campaign called Wish Express — a New Year campaign that invites players to share their most genuine wishes, with one lucky dream set to be made real by WinSpirit itself.
Inspired by the childhood tradition of writing letters to Santa, this campaign turns nostalgia into an interactive community experience. Instead of mailing wishes to Lapland, participants can now send them aboard a virtual train — the Wish Express — and receive rewards simply for taking part.
Journey of wishes and rewards
The idea is simple yet full of holiday spirit. It brings back that familiar childhood feeling — when the world felt a little more magical, and every twinkle of a holiday light promised something wonderful was about to happen.
This campaign taps into that sense of wonder, inviting players to dream freely and feel the joy of small surprises along the way. Players share a personal wish through a special form, and every step along the way brings something special in return:
- 20 Free Spins just for sharing your wish.
- 50 Free Spins if your wish is featured on WinSpirit’s social channels.
- 100 Free Spins if the community picks your wish as the most inspiring.
And the highlight? One particularly heartfelt wish will be fulfilled in real life, turning a sincere online story into a true holiday miracle.
Celebrating sincerity
Beyond the bonuses, the project’s real goal is to remind players about the joy of believing — not in luck, but in kindness and possibility. Players, streamers, providers and media have already joined the initiative, turning it into a shared celebration of optimism and festive warmth.
Some of the wishes already shared are as heartwarming as they are diverse. One player dreams of a world where everyone does just one good deed a day. Another one wishes to reunite with a sibling they haven’t seen in years. And our partners? They’re dreaming too — from more smiles in 2026 to a future with four-day work weeks and more time to truly live.
WinSpirit invites everyone to take part — not only by sharing their own wish, but also by following the stories of others, discovering what the community dreams about, and voting for the most inspiring ones.
Through its warm storytelling and genuine tone, Wish Express feels less like a promotion and more like a celebration of shared dreams — a reminder that magic still exists when we choose to believe. What’s your wish — the one you’ve held onto for years? Share it with WinSpirit, and let’s see if this holiday season brings it to life.
