You have received this Letter of Transmittal in connection with the cash tender offer by Lido Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Offeror”), a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Lido Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of The New Home Company Inc., a Delaware corporation (“New Home”), to purchase any and all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), of Landsea Homes Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Landsea” or “Company”), at a price of $11.30 per Share, net to the holders thereof, payable in cash, without interest thereon, less any applicable tax withholding, as described in the Offer to Purchase, dated May 23, 2025.

You should use this Letter of Transmittal to deliver to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Depositary and Paying Agent”) Shares represented by stock certificates or shares represented by DRS for tender. If you are delivering your Shares by book-entry transfer to an account maintained by the Depositary and Paying Agent at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), you may use this Letter of Transmittal or you may use an Agent’s Message (as defined in Instruction 2 below). In this document, stockholders who deliver certificates representing their Shares are referred to as “Certificate Stockholders.” Stockholders who deliver their Shares through book-entry transfer are referred to as “Book-Entry Stockholders.”

If certificates for your Shares are not immediately available or you cannot deliver your certificates and all other required documents to the Depositary and Paying Agent on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in

Section 1—“Terms of the Offer” of the Offer to Purchase), or you cannot comply with the book-entry transfer procedures on a timely basis, you may nevertheless tender your Shares according to the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in Section 3—“Procedures for Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase. See Instruction 2. Delivery of documents to DTC will not constitute delivery to the Depositary and Paying Agent.

The undersigned hereby tenders to Lido Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Offeror”) and a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Lido Holdco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of The New Home Company Inc., a Delaware corporation (“New Home”), the above-described shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), of Landsea Homes Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to the Offer to Purchase, dated May 23, 2025 (the “Offer to Purchase”), at a price of $11.30 per Share, net to the holders thereof, payable in cash, without interest thereon and less any applicable tax withholding, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and this Letter of Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time as permitted therein, collectively constitute the “Offer”).

On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or amendment), subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for payment of the Shares validly tendered herewith in accordance with the terms of the Offer, the undersigned hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Offeror, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Shares being tendered hereby and any and all cash dividends, distributions, rights, other Shares or other securities issued or issuable in respect of such Shares on or after the date of acceptance of the tendered shares by Offeror (other than those with a record date prior to such date) (collectively, “Distributions”). In addition, by executing and delivering this Letter of Transmittal (or taking action resulting in the delivery of an Agent’s Message), the undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Depositary and Paying Agent”) as the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact and proxy of the undersigned with respect to such Shares and any Distributions with full power of substitution and re-substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest in the Shares tendered by this Letter of Transmittal) to the fullest extent of such stockholder’s rights with respect to such Shares and any Distributions (a) to deliver certificates representing Shares (the “Share Certificates”) and any Distributions, or transfer ownership of such Shares and any Distributions on the account books maintained by DTC, together, in either such case, with all accompanying evidence of transfer and authenticity, to or upon the order of, the Offeror, (b) to present such Shares and any Distributions for transfer on the books of the Company and (c) to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Shares and any Distributions, all in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

By executing and delivering this Letter of Transmittal (or taking action resulting in the delivery of an Agent’s Message), the undersigned hereby irrevocably appoints each of the Offeror, its officers and any other designees of the Offeror as the true and lawful agents and attorneys-in-fact and proxies of the undersigned, each with full power of substitution and re-substitution, to the full extent of such stockholder’s rights with respect to the Shares tendered hereby which have been accepted for payment and with respect to any Distributions. Each of the Offeror, its officers and any other designees of the Offeror will, with respect to the Shares and any associated Distributions for which the appointment is effective, be empowered to exercise all voting and any other rights of such stockholder, as they, in their sole discretion, may deem proper at any annual, special, adjourned or postponed meeting of the Company’s stockholders, by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise. This proxy and power of attorney shall be irrevocable and coupled with an interest in the tendered Shares. Such appointment is effective when, and only to the extent that, the Offeror accepts the Shares tendered with this Letter of Transmittal for payment pursuant to the Offer. Upon the effectiveness of such appointment, without further action, all prior powers of attorney, proxies and consents given by the undersigned with respect to such Shares and any associated Distributions will be revoked and no subsequent powers of attorney, proxies, consents or revocations may be given (and, if given, will not be deemed effective). The Offeror reserves the right to require that, in order for Shares to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon the Offeror’s acceptance for payment of such Shares, the Offeror must be able to exercise full voting, consent and other rights, to the extent permitted under applicable law, with respect to such Shares and any associated Distributions, including voting at any meeting of stockholders or executing a written consent concerning any matter.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the Shares and any Distributions tendered hereby and, when the same is accepted for payment by the Offeror, the Offeror will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and the same will not be subject to any adverse claim. The

undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned is the registered owner of the Shares or the Share Certificate(s) have been endorsed to the undersigned in blank or the undersigned is a participant in DTC whose name appears on a security position listing participant as the owner of the Shares. The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Depositary and Paying Agent or the Offeror to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, assignment and transfer of the Shares and any Distributions tendered hereby. In addition, the undersigned shall promptly remit and transfer to the Depositary and Paying Agent for the account of the Offeror any and all Distributions in respect of the Shares tendered hereby, accompanied by appropriate documentation of transfer and, pending such remittance or appropriate assurance thereof, the Offeror shall be entitled to all rights and privileges as owner of any such Distributions and may withhold the entire purchase price or deduct from the purchase price the amount or value thereof, as determined by the Offeror in its sole discretion.

It is understood that the undersigned will not receive payment for the Shares unless and until the Shares are accepted for payment and until the Share Certificate(s) owned by the undersigned are received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at the address or via the secure upload link set forth above, together with such additional documents as the Depositary and Paying Agent may require, or, in the case of Shares held in book-entry form, ownership of Shares is validly transferred on the account books maintained by DTC, and until the same are processed for payment by the Depositary and Paying Agent. It is understood that the method of delivery of the Shares, the Share Certificate(s) and all other required documents (including delivery through DTC) is at the option and risk of the undersigned and that the risk of loss of such Shares, Share Certificate(s) and other documents shall pass only after the Depositary and Paying Agent has actually received the Shares or Share Certificate(s) (including, in the case of a book-entry transfer, by Book-Entry Confirmation (as defined below)).

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred pursuant to this Letter of Transmittal shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

The undersigned understands that the acceptance for payment by the Offeror of Shares tendered pursuant to one of the procedures described in Section 3—“Procedures for Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and the Offeror upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer. The undersigned recognizes that under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer, the Offeror may not be required to accept for exchange any Shares tendered hereby.

Unless otherwise indicated herein under “Special Payment Instructions,” please issue the check for the purchase price in the name(s) of, and/or return any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment to, the registered owner(s) appearing under “Description of Shares Tendered.” Similarly, unless otherwise indicated under “Special Delivery Instructions,” please mail the check for the purchase price and/or return any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment (and accompanying documents, as appropriate) to the address(es) of the registered owner(s) appearing under “Description of Shares Tendered.” In the event that both the “Special Delivery Instructions” and the “Special Payment Instructions” are completed, please issue the check for the purchase price and/or issue or return any Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment (and any accompanying documents, as appropriate) in the name of, and deliver such check and/or return such Share Certificates (and any accompanying documents, as appropriate) to, the person or persons so indicated. Unless otherwise indicated herein in the box titled “Special Payment Instructions,” please credit any Shares tendered hereby or by an Agent’s Message and delivered by book-entry transfer, but which are not purchased, by crediting the account at DTC designated above. The undersigned recognizes that the Offeror has no obligation pursuant to the Special Payment Instructions to transfer any Shares from the name of the registered owner thereof if the Offeror does not accept for payment any of the Shares so tendered.

Effective from and after the consummation of the Offer and in consideration of the right to receive payment for the Shares pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and this Letter of Transmittal, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the undersigned, on behalf of itself and its past, present or future heirs, executors, administrators, predecessors-in-interest, successors, permitted assigns, equityholders, general or limited partners, affiliates and representatives (including, in each case, their past, present or future officers and directors) (each, a “Releasing Party”), hereby knowingly, voluntarily, irrevocably, unconditionally and forever acquits, releases and discharges, and covenants not to sue Management IX (as

defined in the Offer to Purchase), New Home, Parent, the Offeror or the Company, their respective predecessors, successors, parents, subsidiaries and other affiliates and their respective past, present or future owners, managers, members, general or limited partners, shareholders, fiduciaries (in their official and individual capacities), and representatives (in their capacities as such) (each, a “Released Party” and, collectively, the “Released Parties”), from any and all liabilities, penalties, fines, judgments (at equity or at law, including statutory and common) and other losses (including damages, asserted or unasserted, express or implied, foreseen or unforeseen, suspected or unsuspected, known or unknown, matured or unmatured, contingent or vested, liquidated or unliquidated, of any kind or nature or description whatsoever), in each case arising from any matter, cause or event occurring from the beginning of time to the consummation of the Offer that a Releasing Party presently has, has ever had, or may hereafter have, in each case, to the extent arising out of his/her/its ownership of securities (including equity or debt securities or options to acquire equity securities) in the Company; provided, that nothing contained herein shall limit rights to indemnification or to advancement or reimbursement of expenses to which the Releasing Party may be entitled in his/her/its capacity as a current or former officer or director of the Company in accordance with Section 6.8 of the Merger Agreement. Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California states: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR THE RELEASED PARTY.” This paragraph is for the benefit of the Released Parties and shall be enforceable by any of them directly against the Releasing Parties.

The undersigned hereby represents that it has not made any assignment or transfer of any claim or other matter covered by the immediately preceding paragraph and has not filed any claim, action or proceeding of any kind against any Released Party relating to any matter covered by the immediately preceding paragraph, and the undersigned hereby irrevocably covenants to refrain from, directly or indirectly, asserting any claim, action or proceeding, or commencing, instituting, or causing to be commenced or instituted, any claim, action or proceeding of any kind against any Released Party, based upon any matter released hereby. The undersigned hereby acknowledges and intends that this release shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the claims hereinabove mentioned or implied, and expressly consents that this release shall be given full force and effect in accordance with each and every express term or provision hereof, including those (a) relating to any claims hereinabove mentioned or implied or (b) relating to unknown and unsuspected claims (notwithstanding any state statute that expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated claims).

To be completed ONLY if Share Certificate(s) not tendered or not accepted for payment and/or the check for the purchase price in consideration of Shares accepted for payment are to be issued in the name of someone other than the undersigned or if Shares tendered by book-entry transfer which are not accepted for payment are to be returned by credit to an account maintained at DTC other than that designated above.

To be completed ONLY if Share Certificate(s) not tendered or not accepted for payment and/or the check for the purchase price of Shares accepted for payment are to be sent to someone other than the undersigned or to the undersigned at an address other than that shown in the box titled “Description of Shares Tendered” above.

1. Guarantee of signatures. Except as otherwise provided below, all signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member in good standing of a recognized Medallion Program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, Inc., including the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (each, an “Eligible Institution”). Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal need not be guaranteed (a) if this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) (which term, for purposes of this document, includes any participant in DTC whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of the Shares) of Shares tendered herewith, owners powers are not signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity and such registered owner has not completed the box titled “Special Payment Instructions” or the box titled “Special Delivery Instructions” on this Letter of Transmittal or (b) if such Shares are tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 5.

2. Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and certificates or book-entry confirmations. This Letter of Transmittal is to be completed by stockholders either if Share Certificates are to be forwarded herewith or, unless an Agent’s Message is utilized, if tenders are to be made pursuant to the procedures for tender by book-entry transfer set forth in Section 3—“Procedures for Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase. Share Certificates representing all physically tendered Shares, or confirmation of any book-entry transfer into the Depositary’s and Paying Agent’s account at DTC of Shares tendered by book-entry transfer (“Book Entry Confirmation”), as well as this Letter of Transmittal properly completed and duly executed with any required signature guarantees, unless an Agent’s Message in the case of a book-entry transfer is utilized, and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at one of its addresses set forth herein or via the secure upload link on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 1—“Terms of the Offer” of the Offer to Purchase) (unless the tender is made during a subsequent offering period, if one is provided, in which case the Share Certificates representing Shares, in the case of physical certificates, and this Letter of Transmittal, or an Agent’s Message in the case of a book-entry transfer, and other documents must be received before the expiration of the subsequent offering period). Please do not send your Share Certificates directly to the Offeror, Parent, New Home, Management IX or the Company.

Stockholders whose Share Certificates are not immediately available or who cannot deliver all other required documents to the Depositary and Paying Agent on or prior to the Expiration Date or who cannot comply with the procedures for book-entry transfer on a timely basis, may nevertheless tender their Shares by properly completing and duly executing a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery pursuant to the guaranteed delivery procedure set forth in Section 3—“Procedures for Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase. Pursuant to such procedure: (a) such tender must be made by or through an Eligible Institution, (b) a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery substantially in the form provided by the Offeror must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent prior to the Expiration Date, and (c) Share Certificates representing all tendered Shares, in proper form for transfer (or a Book Entry Confirmation with respect to such Shares), as well as a Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed with any required signature guarantees (unless, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message is utilized), and all other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at its address or via the secure upload link set forth on the back cover of this Letter of Transmittal within one Nasdaq Capital Market trading day after the date of execution of such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. A Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be delivered by overnight courier, via secure upload link or mailed to the Depositary and Paying Agent and must include a guarantee by an Eligible Institution in the form set forth in the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery made available by the Offeror. In case of Shares held through DTC, the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery must be delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent by a participant by means of the confirmation system of DTC.

A properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal must accompany each such delivery of Share Certificates to the Depositary and Paying Agent.

The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the Depositary and Paying Agent and forming part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that DTC has received an

express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC tendering the Shares which are the subject of such Book-Entry Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and that the Offeror may enforce such agreement against the participant.

THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF THE SHARES, THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING DELIVERY THROUGH DTC, IS AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING STOCKHOLDER. DELIVERY OF ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED MADE AND RISK OF LOSS OF THE CERTIFICATES REPRESENTING SHARES WILL PASS, ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY AND PAYING AGENT (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION). IF THE DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted. All tendering stockholders, by execution of this Letter of Transmittal, waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their Shares for payment.

All questions as to validity, form and eligibility of the surrender of any Share Certificate hereunder will be determined by the Offeror (which may delegate power in whole or in part to the Depositary and Paying Agent) in its sole and absolute discretion, which determination shall be final and binding absent a finding. The Offeror reserves the right to waive any irregularities or defects in the surrender of any Shares or Share Certificate(s). A surrender will not be deemed to have been made until all irregularities have been cured or waived.

3. Inadequate space. If the space provided herein is inadequate, the certificate numbers, the number of Shares represented by such Share Certificates and/or the number of Shares tendered should be listed on a separate schedule attached hereto and separately signed on each page thereof in the same manner as this Letter of Transmittal is signed.

4. Partial tenders (applicable to certificate stockholders only). If fewer than all the Shares evidenced by any Share Certificate delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent are to be tendered, fill in the number of Shares which are to be tendered in the column titled “Number of Shares Tendered” in the box titled “Description of Shares Tendered.” In such cases, new certificate(s) for the remainder of the Shares that were evidenced by the old certificate(s) but not tendered will be sent to the registered owner, unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on this Letter of Transmittal, as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date. All Shares represented by Share Certificates delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

5. Signatures on Letter of Transmittal; stock powers and endorsements. If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of the Shares tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond with the name(s) as written on the face of the Share Certificate(s) without alteration or any other change whatsoever.

If any Shares tendered hereby are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

If any tendered Shares are registered in the names of different holder(s), it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrations of such Shares.

If this Letter of Transmittal or any certificates or stock powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to the Offeror of their authority so to act must be submitted, or in lieu of such document signatures must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 1.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of the Shares listed and transmitted hereby, no endorsements of Share Certificates or separate stock powers are required unless payment is to be made to, or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment are to be issued in the name of, a person other than the registered owner(s). Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered owner(s) of the Share(s) listed, the Share Certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by the appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name or names of the registered owner(s) or holder(s) appear(s) on the Share Certificate(s). Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

6. Transfer taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Instruction 6, the Offeror will pay any transfer taxes with respect to the transfer and sale of Shares to it or to its order pursuant to the Offer. If, however, payment of the purchase price is to be made to, or (in the circumstances permitted hereby) if Share Certificates not tendered or accepted for payment are to be registered in the name of, any person other than the registered owner(s), or if tendered Share Certificates are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this Letter of Transmittal, the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered owner(s) or such person) payable on account of the transfer to such person will need to be paid and satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes, or the exemption from such payment therefrom will need to be provided to the Paying Agent.

7. Special payment and delivery instructions. If a check is to be issued in the name of, and/or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment are to be issued or returned to, a person other than the signer(s) of this Letter of Transmittal or if a check and/or such certificates are to be mailed to a person other than the signer(s) of this Letter of Transmittal or to an address other than that shown in the box titled “Description of Shares Tendered” above, the appropriate boxes on this Letter of Transmittal should be completed.

8. Requests for assistance or additional copies. Questions or requests for assistance may be directed to the Information Agent at its address and telephone numbers set forth below or to your broker, dealer, commercial bank or trust company. Additional copies of the Offer to Purchase, this Letter of Transmittal, the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and other tender offer materials may be obtained from the Information Agent, which may be contacted at the telephone numbers, mailing address and email address as set forth on the back cover of this Letter of Transmittal, and will be furnished at the Offeror’s expense.

9. Tax forms. Under U.S. federal income tax law, a Company stockholder whose Shares are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer may be subject to backup withholding on the gross proceeds of any payment received hereunder at a statutory rate (which is currently 24%). Backup withholding is not an additional tax. A Company stockholder subject to the backup withholding rules will be allowed a credit of the amount withheld against such stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and, if backup withholding results in an overpayment of U.S. federal income tax, such stockholder may be entitled to a refund, provided that the requisite information is correctly furnished to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in a timely manner.

To prevent backup withholding with respect to payments made to a U.S. Holder (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) pursuant to the Offer, the U.S. Holder is required to timely notify the Depositary and Paying Agent of the U.S. Holder’s taxpayer identification number (“TIN”), which generally would be the U.S. Holder’s social security or federal employer identification number, by completing the enclosed IRS Form W-9, certifying (i) that the TIN provided on that form is correct (or that such U.S. Holder is awaiting receipt of a TIN), (ii) that the U.S. Holder is a U.S. citizen or other U.S. person (as defined on the form), (iii) that the FATCA code(s) entered on the form are correct and (iv) that the U.S. Holder is not subject to backup withholding because (a) the U.S. Holder is exempt from backup withholding, (b) the U.S. Holder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that the U.S. Holder is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or (c) after being so notified, the Internal Revenue Service has notified the U.S. Holder that the U.S. Holder is no longer subject to backup withholding.

If the Depositary and Paying Agent is not timely provided with the correct TIN, such U.S. Holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service and payments that are made to such U.S. Holder pursuant to the Offer may be subject to backup withholding. Each U.S. Holder is required to give the Depositary and Paying Agent the TIN of the registered holder of the Shares. If the Shares are registered in more than one name or are not registered in the name of the actual owner, consult the enclosed instructions with the IRS Form W-9 for additional guidance on which TIN to report.

A U.S. Holder who does not have a TIN may write “Applied For” in Part I of the IRS Form W-9 if such U.S. Holder has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future. If the U.S. Holder writes “Applied For” in Part I of the IRS Form W-9, (i) the U.S. Holder must also complete the “Certificate of

Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number” below in order to potentially avoid backup withholding on payments made pursuant to the Offer and (ii) payments made will be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder has furnished the Depositary and Paying Agent with his or her TIN by the time payment is made. A U.S. Holder who writes “Applied For” in Part I of the IRS Form W-9 in lieu of furnishing a TIN should furnish the Depositary and Paying Agent with the U.S. Holder’s TIN as soon as it is received.

Certain U.S. Holders (including, among others, generally all corporations) are not subject to the backup withholding requirements described in this Instruction 9. To avoid possible erroneous backup withholding, a U.S. Holder that is exempt from backup withholding should complete and return the IRS Form W-9. An exempt U.S. Holder should check the appropriate box for its U.S. federal tax classification, and sign and date the IRS Form W-9.

A Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) should submit to the Depositary and Paying Agent the appropriate IRS Form W-8 to establish an applicable withholding exemption from backup withholding (generally, IRS Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY (with any required attachments), W-8ECI or W-8EXP). In the case of Non-U.S. Holders for which IRS Form W-8BEN is the appropriate form, IRS Form W-8BEN requires a Non-U.S. Holder to provide such Non-U.S. Holder’s name and address, along with certain other information, and to certify, under penalties of perjury, that such Non-U.S. Holder is not a U.S. person. Non-U.S. Holders may obtain an IRS Form W-8BEN and instructions (or other appropriate IRS Form W-8) from the Depositary and Paying Agent upon request and may also be obtained from the IRS’s website (www.irs.gov).

All Company stockholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors to determine whether they are exempt from these backup withholding requirements and to determine which form should be used to avoid backup withholding.

10. Lost, destroyed, mutilated or stolen share certificates. If any Share Certificate has been lost, destroyed, mutilated or stolen, the stockholder should promptly notify the Company’s stock transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Transfer Agent”), at (800) 509-5586. The stockholder will then be instructed as to the steps that must be taken in order to replace the Share Certificate. This Letter of Transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing lost, mutilated, destroyed or stolen Share Certificates have been followed. You are urged to contact the Transfer Agent immediately in order to receive further instructions and for a determination of whether you will need to post a bond and to permit timely processing of this documentation. This Letter of Transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing lost, destroyed or stolen Share Certificates have been followed.

11. Waiver of conditions. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the conditions of the Offer may be waived by Parent or the Offeror in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in their respective sole discretion.

I certify, under penalties of perjury, that a taxpayer identification number has not been issued to me, and either (a) I have mailed or delivered an application to receive a taxpayer identification number to the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Center or Social Security Administration Office or (b) I intend to mail or deliver an application in the near future. I understand that if I do not provide a taxpayer identification number before payment is made, a portion of such reportable payment will be withheld.

NOTE: FAILURE TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THIS FORM MAY RESULT IN BACKUP WITHHOLDING OF A PORTION OF ANY PAYMENT MADE TO YOU PURSUANT TO THE MERGER. PLEASE REVIEW THE INSTRUCTIONS ENCLOSED WITH THE IRS FORM W-9 INCLUDED IN THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.
