5 of the Company, each as heretofore amended and currently in effect, or (ii) any laws, regulations or governmental or judicial decrees, injunctions or orders applicable to the Company, except where such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or affect the Company’s ability to consummate the Repurchase in any material respect. Authorization, Execution and Delivery of This Repurchase Agreement. This Repurchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

The Holder was given a meaningful opportunity to negotiate the terms of the Repurchase. The Holder had a sufficient amount of time to consider whether to participate in the Repurchase, and neither the Company nor Matthews South, nor any of their respective affiliates or agents, has placed any pressure on the Holder to respond to the opportunity to participate in the Repurchase. The Holder’s and each Selling Holder’s participation in the Repurchase was not conditioned by the Company on the Holder or any Selling Holder’s sale of a minimum principal amount of Existing Notes for the Repurchase Consideration.

C-1 EXHIBIT C Tax Matters Under U.S. federal income tax law, a Selling Holder who sells Existing Notes for the Repurchase Consideration generally must provide the applicable withholding agent with the correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) on IRS Form W-9 (attached hereto) or otherwise establish a basis for exemption from backup withholding for each beneficial owner of the Selling Holder’s Existing Notes. A TIN is generally a beneficial owner’s Social Security number or employer identification number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the Selling Holder or its beneficial owner may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In addition, certain payments may be subject to backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax (currently set at 24% of the payment). If a Selling Holder is required to provide a TIN of a beneficial owner but does not have the TIN, the Selling Holder should consult its tax advisor regarding how to obtain a TIN. Certain beneficial owners are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. A beneficial owner that is a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes will not be subject to backup withholding if the applicable withholding agent receives an IRS Form W-9 certifying that such beneficial owner is not subject to backup withholding. Non-U.S. beneficial owners generally may establish their status as exempt from backup withholding by submitting to the applicable withholding agent a properly completed applicable IRS Form W-8 (available at www.irs.gov), signed, under penalties of perjury, attesting to such Selling Holder’s foreign status, together with any applicable attachments. U.S. backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. The Selling Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding how to complete the appropriate forms with respect to the beneficial owners of the Existing Notes and to determine whether such beneficial owners are exempt from backup withholding or other withholding taxes.
