Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Shares; Guaranteed Delivery Procedure. You should use this Letter of Transmittal only if you are either forwarding certificates herewith or causing the Shares to be delivered by book-entry transfer pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase. In order for you to validly tender Shares, certificates for all physically delivered Shares, or a confirmation of a book-entry transfer of all Shares delivered electronically into the Depositary's account at the Book- Entry Transfer Facility, as well as a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof) and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the front page of this Letter of Transmittal by the Expiration Date (as defined in the Offer to Purchase). If you cannot deliver your Shares and all other required documents to the Depositary by the Expiration Date, you must tender your Shares pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedure set forth in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase. Pursuant to such procedure: (a) such tender must be made by or through an Eligible Institution, (b) a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery substantially in the form provided by the Company must be received by the Depositary by the Expiration Date, and (c) the certificates for all physically delivered Shares, or a confirmation of a book-entry transfer of all Shares delivered electronically into the Depositary's account at the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, as well as a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof) and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary within three New York Stock Exchange, Inc. trading days after the date of execution of such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, all as provided in Section 3 of the Offer to Purchase. The method of delivery of all documents, including Share certificates, is at your option and risk. If you choose to deliver the documents by mail, then registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended. No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted, and no fractional Shares will be purchased. By executing this Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof), you waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance for payment of the Shares.
