All defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Interest shall accrue from the date of this Note on the Principal Amount (or such portion thereof which has not been prepaid by the Company in accordance with the terms hereof (the “Unpaid Principal Amount”)) at a rate equal to 5.00% per annum (the “Base Coupon”), payable semi-annually.

At the Maturity Date, an amount equal to the Unpaid Principal Amount and all accrued but unpaid Base Coupon through the date of payment shall be due and payable to the Holder.

2. Interest Payments.

The Company shall provide reasonable notice to the Holder if it is aware of conditions that may lead to its right to redeem under this section and/or it is considering redemption.

(b) Notice of Redemption. In the event that the requirements of Section 4(a) have been met, the Company may, in its sole discretion, provide written notice of redemption (a “Notice of Redemption”) to the Holder, which notice (i) shall specify a date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) at least 30 days but not more than 60 days following the date of the Notice of Redemption and describe in reasonable detail which of the requirements set forth under Section 4(a) have been met, and (ii) must be delivered within 5 trading days following the end of the 30 trading day period described in Section 4(a) above.

(ii) Following the occurrence of either a Change of Control (as defined below) or a Termination of Trading (as defined below); provided that notice is given in accordance with Section 5(c) below within 10 days thereof;

(iv) Following receipt by the Holder of a Notice of Redemption from the Company; provided that notice is given in accordance with Section 5(c) below within 10 days thereof.

For the avoidance of doubt, this conversion right is in addition to the put right set forth in Section 6 hereof that arises in the event of a Change of Control or a Termination of Trading.

(c) Mechanics of Conversion. The Holder seeking to convert this Note in accordance with this Section 5 shall provide the Company hereto with a notice of conversion at

least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the date for conversion set forth in such notice (the “Conversion Date”). Following delivery of such notice of conversion, this Note will become due and payable on the Conversion Date, and on the Conversion Date, the Holder shall surrender the Note to the Company, and the Company shall deliver to the Holder, at the Company’s sole discretion, either:

(i) a number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (A) the sum of the Unpaid Principal Amount of, and all accrued but unpaid Base Coupon through the Conversion Date, by (B) the then in effect Conversion Price, or

(ii) a cash payment equal to the product of (A) the number of shares that the Holder would be entitled to receive pursuant to the foregoing clause 5(c)(i) on the Conversion Date pursuant to a conversion completed under that clause, multiplied by (B) the closing price of the Common Stock of the Company on the trading date immediately preceding the Conversion Date, or

(iii) a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, so long as the sum of (A) such amount of cash and (B) the product of (x) the number of such shares of Common Stock multiplied by (y) the closing price of the Common Stock of the Company on the trading date immediately preceding the Conversion Date, equals the aggregate dollar amount of cash that the Holder would be entitled to receive pursuant to the foregoing clause 5(c)(ii) on the Conversion Date pursuant to a conversion completed under that clause.

No fractional share shall be issued upon the conversion of this Note. If the conversion would otherwise result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall, in lieu of issuing any fractional share of Common Stock, pay the Holder an amount in cash equal to the value of such fractional share in accordance with the closing price of the Common Stock on a Trading Market on the date that is three (3) Business Days prior to the Conversion Date. On and after the Conversion Date, interest will cease to accrue on this Note unless the Company defaults in the payment of the conversion price and accrued interest.

(d) Effect of Conversion. Upon conversion of this Note pursuant to this Section 5, the Holder shall surrender this Note, duly endorsed, at the principal offices of the Company. Upon conversion of this Note, the Company will be forever released from all of its obligations and liabilities under this Note. The Holder shall continue to be entitled to receive any Base Coupon accrued through the Conversion Date and interest thereon.

(e) Conversion Price Adjustment Provisions. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted upon occurrence of the following events between the date this Note is issued and the date it is converted pursuant to this Section 5:

(i) Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends or Recapitalizations, etc. The Conversion Price shall be proportionally adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or reclassification or recapitalization effected by the Company after the date of this Note and prior to the conversion of this Note pursuant to the terms of this Section 5.

(ii) Adjustment for Issuance of Subscription Rights and Warrants. Upon the issuance of any rights (other than convertible debt securities) or warrants entitling the holders thereof for a period of not more than 45 days from the issuance date thereof to subscribe for or purchase Company common stock at a price per share less than the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading date immediately preceding the issuance date of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be decreased in a manner giving proportional effect to both the additional shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such rights or warrants and the difference between the exercise price and the last reported closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading date immediately preceding the issuance date of such rights or warrants.

(iii) Adjustment for Cash Dividends and Other Distributions. Except to the extent governed by clause (i) above, upon the payment of a cash dividend or a distribution of other assets or property to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s common stock, the Conversion Price shall be decreased proportionally in respect of the proportion of such cash dividend or fair market value of such distributed property, as applicable, to the last reported closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading date preceding such distribution.

(iv) Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger. After the date of this Note, in case of any reorganization of the Company, or in the case that the Company consolidates with or merges into another corporation or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation and then distribute the proceeds to its interest holders, then, in each such case, the Holder, upon the conversion of this Note (as provided in this Section 5) at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the consideration otherwise receivable upon the conversion of this Note prior to such consummation, the stock or other securities or property to which the Holder would have been entitled upon the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance if the Holder had converted this Note immediately prior thereto, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Note, and in each such case, the terms of this Note shall be applicable to the Common Stock or other securities or property receivable upon the conversion of this Note after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance. This Section 5(e)(iv) does not limit the conversion and put rights set forth herein in connection with a Change of Control or a Termination of Trading.

6. Repurchase Option Upon a Change of Control or Termination of Trading.

(a) Within 60 days following the occurrence of either a Change of Control (as defined below) or a Termination of Trading (as defined below), the Holder may, at its option, put this Note (in whole but not in part) for an amount in cash equal to (A) the Unpaid Principal Amount, and (B) all accrued but unpaid Base Coupon through the date of payment. For the avoidance of doubt, this put right is in addition to the conversion right set forth in Section 5 hereof that arises in the event of a Change of Control or a Termination of Trading.

(b) For purposes of this Section 6, a “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following transactions:

In the event of the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the distribution of any of the assets of the Company or any successor on account of any liquidation, bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”), the Holder shall not be entitled to any payment or distribution pursuant to this Note or such Proceeding until all Senior Indebtedness has been satisfied in full in immediately available funds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company is permitted to make, and the Holder is permitted to accept, regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest hereunder unless (a) any holder of the Senior Indebtedness (or an authorized representative) has notified the Company in writing that a default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Senior Indebtedness, or (b) a Proceeding shall have commenced and be continuing with respect to the Company.

(b) The Holder shall not at any time require, take or obtain any security interest or lien to secure all or any portion of the indebtedness evidenced by this Note.

Each holder of Senior Indebtedness will be entitled to the benefits of, and may directly enforce, the subordination provisions of this Note.

(d) The Holder agrees that no payment or distribution to any holder of any Senior Indebtedness by the Holder pursuant to the subordination provisions of this Note will entitle the Holder to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until all of the Senior Indebtedness has been fully paid in immediately available funds and the commitments of each holder of Senior Indebtedness have terminated. The Holder hereby expressly waives (i) notice of acceptance by any holder of Senior Indebtedness of the subordination and other provisions of this Note, (ii) notice of the creation of any Senior Indebtedness, and (iii) any claim of impairment of any right of subrogation. The Holder consents and agrees that no holder of any Senior Indebtedness shall be under any obligation to marshal or order the disposition of any assets in favor of the Holder or against or in payment of any or all of the Senior Indebtedness.

(e) Should any payment, distribution (in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or otherwise) or other amount be received by the Holder upon or in respect to this Note in contravention of the provisions hereof, the Holder will promptly pay what it has received over, and deliver it, to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and, until it is so delivered, the Holder will hold the cash or other assets it has received in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness.
