Holders of Notes tendering their Notes after the Early Tender Date will only be eligible to receive the applicable tender offer consideration for such series of Tender Notes set forth in the table above (with respect to each series of Tender Notes, the Tender Offer Consideration), which is the applicable Total Consideration less the Early Tender Premium.
The consummation of the Tender Offers is not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered. However, each of the Offers is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the consummation of the offering of the New Notes on or prior to the Early Settlement Date and certain other customary conditions.
Provided that the conditions to the applicable Tender Offer have been satisfied or waived, and assuming acceptance for purchase by ENLK of Tender Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offers, (i) payment for applicable Tender Notes validly tendered at or prior to the applicable Early Tender Date and purchased in the applicable Tender Offer shall be made on the settlement date that is expected to be the second business day following the applicable Early Tender Date, or as promptly as practicable thereafter (with respect to each series of Notes, the Early Settlement Date) and (ii) payment for any applicable Tender Notes validly tendered after the applicable Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date, and purchased in the applicable Tender Offer shall be made on the settlement date that is expected to be the second business day following the applicable Expiration Date, or as promptly as practicable thereafter (with respect to each series of Notes, the Final Settlement Date and, together with the related Early Settlement Date, the Settlement Dates).
Subject to the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, the applicable Series Cap and proration, the Tender Notes accepted on any Settlement Date will be accepted in accordance with their Acceptance Priority Levels set forth in the table above, with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 3 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level, and provided further that Tender Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase with priority over Tender Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the Expiration Date, regardless of the priority of the series of such later Tender Notes that are tendered.
Acceptance for tenders of any Tender Notes may be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount for any series of Tender Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would cause the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount to be exceeded. Acceptance for tenders of the 2025 Notes or the 2026 Notes may also be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes or 2026 Notes, as applicable, validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is greater than the applicable Series Cap. Furthermore, if the Tender Offers are fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Date, Tender Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date will not be accepted for purchase and there will be no Final Settlement Date.
