The Tender Offer Consideration was set by reference to a fixed spread over the yield to maturity of a benchmark U.S. Treasury Security, with the reference yield calculated by dealer managers at 3:00 p.m. New York time on the expiration date. Payments will include accrued and unpaid interest from the last interest payment date through, but not including, the settlement date.

Refinancing ties tender offer to redemption of 2027 secured notes

OpenText expects to close a concurrent senior secured notes offering on October 1, 2026.

Both transactions are expected to settle on October 2, 2026.
