(“Hamblin Watsa”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions therein, each of WL Ross and Hamblin Watsa have separately agreed to exercise all of the rights issued to it under the basic subscription right and, pursuant to the over-subscription privilege, to subscribe for all of the shares of common stock that are not subscribed for by the Company’s shareholders in a rights offering proposed by the Company. Pursuant to the terms and conditions of each of the Commitment Letters, each of WL Ross and Hamblin Watsa shall not be required to acquire an amount of shares pursuant to the over-subscription privilege exceeding the lesser of: (i) 100% of the shares that were not purchased by other shareholders pursuant to the exercise of their basic subscription right and (ii) an amount of shares which were not purchased by other shareholders pursuant to the exercise of their basic subscription right which, taken together with the shares acquired by WL Ross or Hamblin Watsa, as applicable, pursuant to the basic subscription right, is equal to 50% of the total amount of shares offered. The Company intends to distribute rights to subscribe for and purchase new shares of common stock at a subscription price of $5.00 per share for an aggregate offering amount of approximately $272.9 million if all of the rights are exercised.
