Per U.S.$1,000 original principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted. In the case of the 2048 Notes, the Total Consideration, Early Tender Payment or Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, will be multiplied by the current scaling factor of 98.62434% (the “Scaling Factor”). The 2036 Notes are not currently subject to a Scaling Factor. The Scaling Factor results from the fact that the 2048 Notes have been partially amortized. |

|
(2) |
Excludes accrued interest, which will be paid in addition to the Tender Offer Consideration or the Total Consideration, as applicable. |
||||||
|
(3) |
The amounts payable to Holders for Notes validly tendered and accepted resulting from the difference between: (i) the outstanding principal amount of each Note tendered by such Holder, and (ii) the Total Consideration, including the Early Tender Payment (in case such Holder tendered Notes prior to or at the Early Tender Date) or the Tender Offer Consideration (in case such Holder has tendered Notes after the Early Tender Date and prior to or at the Expiration Date), multiplied in the case of the 2048 Notes by the Scaling Factor, shall be considered a benefit under the Indenture being paid to such Holder for the tender of such Notes. |
||||||
The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m. New York City time, on August 18, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time, including as extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Date“). The Early Tender Deadline for the Tender Offer will be 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 4, 2021 (such date and time, including as extended or earlier terminated, the “Early Tender Date“). Holders of the notes must validly tender their notes and provide their consents at or before the Early Tender Date in order to be eligible to receive the Total Consideration, which includes the Early Tender Payment and the Tender Offer Consideration. Holders who tender their notes after the Early Tender Date will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Payment and will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration. Notes tendered may be withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 4, 2021 (such date and time, the “Withdrawal Deadline“), but not thereafter, except as required by applicable law.
Any Holder who tenders Notes in the Tender Offer will be deemed to automatically have provided Consents, and Notes may not be tendered without delivering Consents. If the requisite number of Consents are received, the Proposed Amendments will be effective as to all the Notes, including those that are not purchased in the Tender Offer. Adoption of the Proposed Amendments will have adverse consequences for Holders who elect not to tender Notes in the Tender Offer.
The Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation are conditioned upon, among other things, the settlement of a new offering of senior notes (the “New Offering“) on terms satisfactory to the Issuer on the Early Settlement Date (as defined in the Statement) (the “Financing Condition“) and the receipt by the Issuer of valid tender (that are not withdrawn) of both (i) in the case of the Majority Consent Amendments, at least a majority of the principal amount of each of the outstanding 2036 Notes and 2048 Notes (excluding any Notes owned by the Issuer or its Affiliates (as defined in the Indenture) (other than the Government of Panama)) (the “Majority Consent“) and (ii) in the case of the Reserve Matters Consent Amendments, (x), more than 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of all the series of Notes affected by the proposed amendments (in each case, excluding any Notes owned by the Issuer or its Affiliates (as defined in the Indenture) (other than the Government of Panama)) (the “Two-Thirds Consent“), and (y) the Majority Consent (together with the Two-Thirds Consent, the “Reserve Matters Consents” and collectively with the Majority Consent, the “Participation Condition“). No assurance can be given that the New Offering will be priced and settled on the terms currently envisioned or at all. The New Offering is not conditioned upon the completion of the Tender Offer or the Consent Solicitation.
Tendering Holders who wish to tender their Notes and also subscribe for the New Offering of senior notes by the Issuer (the “New Notes“) pursuant to the New Offering should quote an allocation identifier code (“Allocation Identifier Code“) which can be obtained by contacting BofA Securities, Inc. or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Dealer Managers and Solicitation Agents“), in their ATOP (as defined in the Statement) or electronic acceptance instruction. An Allocation Identifier Code is not required for a Holder to tender its Notes, but if a tendering Holder wishes to subscribe for the New Notes, such holder should obtain and quote an Allocation Identifier Code in its ATOP or electronic acceptance instruction.
The receipt of an Allocation Identifier Code in conjunction with any tender of Notes in the Tender Offer is not an allocation of the New Notes. In order to apply for the purchase of the relevant New Notes from the Issuer, such tendering Holders must make a separate application in respect of the New Notes for the purchase of such New Notes. The Issuer will review tender instructions received on or prior to the Early Tender Date and may give priority in the allocation of New Notes to those investors tendering with Allocation Identifier Codes. However, allocations of New Notes in the separate New Offering will be determined by the Issuer and the joint book-running managers in the separate New Offering in their sole discretion and no assurances can be given that any Holder that tenders Notes will be given an allocation of New Notes in the separate New Offering at the levels it may subscribe for, or at all.
The Information and Tender Agent for the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation is Global Bondholder Services Corporation. BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. are acting as Dealer Managers for the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation.
