- its Senior Euro Floating Rate Notes due 2014 (the "First Priority Notes");
- its Senior Dollar Floating Rate Notes due 2014 (the "Second Priority Notes");
- its 10-7/8% Senior Subordinated Euro Notes due 2016 (the "Third Priority Notes"); and
- its 9-7/8% Senior Dollar Notes due 2014 (the "Fourth Priority Notes" and, together with the First Priority Notes, the Second Priority Notes and the Third Priority Notes, the "Notes").
Any Notes that have been tendered will be promptly returned to holders.
The tender offer was made pursuant to the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal, dated January 20, 2010, as amended.
