The aggregate Purchase Price of Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline will likely exceed the Maximum Amount. Therefore, HP does not expect to accept for purchase any tenders of Notes at Acceptance Priority Levels 4 through 7.
 
Because the aggregate Purchase Price of Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline will likely exceed the Maximum Amount, HP does not expect to accept any further tenders of Notes. HP will accept for payment, up to the Maximum Amount, Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in accordance with the acceptance priority levels specified in the table above and on the cover page of the Offer to Purchase (as defined below) in the column entitled “Acceptance Priority Level” (the “Acceptance Priority Level”).  Moreover, HP expects to increase the Maximum Amount, subject to the calculation of the consideration to be paid in the Tender Offer, in order to accept for payment all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline with Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 3.  HP expects to accept none of the Notes tendered with Acceptance Priority Levels 4 through 7.


The complete terms of the Tender Offer are set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated June 26, 2023 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”).  Consummation of the Tender Offer is subject to a number of conditions, including the absence of certain adverse legal and market developments.  Subject to applicable law, HP may waive any and all of these conditions or extend, terminate or withdraw the Tender Offer with respect to one or more Series of Notes and/or increase or decrease the Maximum Amount.  The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered.  There are no guaranteed delivery provisions applicable to the Tender Offer.
 
Holders of Notes must have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn their Notes at or before the Early Tender Deadline to be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as described in the Offer to Purchase) for their tendered Notes, which includes an early tender payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”).  The “Total Consideration” for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes of any Series tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the applicable fixed spread specified for such Series (as described in the Offer to Purchase) over the yield corresponding to the bid-side price of the applicable Reference U.S. Treasury Security specified for such Series, as calculated by BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on July 11, 2023.  Assuming the Tender Offer is not extended and the conditions to the Tender Offer are satisfied or waived, HP expects that settlement for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Tender Deadline will be on July 27, 2023 (the “Settlement Date”).  Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on their purchased Notes from the last interest payment date for such Notes to, but excluding, the Settlement Date.  As of the Early Tender Deadline, the Holders’ withdrawal rights have expired.
 
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or purchase, or a solicitation of an offer to sell or purchase, or the solicitation of tenders with respect to, any security.  No offer, solicitation, purchase or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.  The Tender Offer is being made solely pursuant to terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase  and only to such persons and in such jurisdictions as are permitted under applicable law.


BofA Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are serving as the Joint-Lead Dealer Managers in connection with the Tender Offer.  BNP Paribas Securities Corp., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC are serving as Co-Dealer Managers.  Questions regarding the terms of the Tender Offer should be directed to BofA Securities, Inc. at +1 (888) 292-0070 (toll free) or +1 (980) 387-3907 (collect) or to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC at +1 (866) 834-4666 (toll free) or + 1 (212) 834-4818 (collect) or +44 (207) 134-2468 (outside the United States).  Any questions or requests for assistance or additional copies of the Offer to Purchase or the documents incorporated by reference therein may be directed to D.F. King & Co., Inc., which is acting as the Tender Agent and the Information Agent for the Tender Offer, at the following telephone numbers: banks and brokers at (800) 628-8528 (toll free); all others at (212) 269-5550 (all others).

The aggregate Purchase Price of Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeded the Maximum Amount.  Therefore, HP does not expect to accept for purchase any tenders of Notes with Acceptance Priority Levels 4 through 7.

As previously announced, because the aggregate Purchase Price of Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline exceeded the original Maximum Amount, HP does not expect to accept any further tenders of Notes.  HP is increasing the Maximum Amount to approximately $1.019 billion in order to accept for payment all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline with Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 3.  HP does not expect to accept for purchase any Notes tendered with Acceptance Priority Levels 4 through 7.
 
Consummation of the Tender Offer is subject to a number of conditions, including the absence of certain adverse legal and market developments.  Subject to applicable law, HP may waive any and all of these conditions or extend, terminate or withdraw the Tender Offer with respect to one or more Series of Notes and/or increase or decrease the Maximum Amount.  The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered.  There are no guaranteed delivery provisions applicable to the Tender Offer.
 
The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 25, 2023, unless extended (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Time”).  As of the Early Tender Deadline, the Holders’ withdrawal rights have expired.  Assuming the Tender Offer is not extended and the conditions to the Tender Offer are satisfied or waived, HP expects that settlement for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn on or before the Early Tender Deadline will be on July 27, 2023 (the “Settlement Date”).
