Accordingly, any such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such Global Warrant will be shown only on, and the Transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depository or its nominee or the applicable Participant, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall have any responsibility or liability with respect to such records maintained by the Depository or its nominee or the applicable Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Warrant Agent or any agent of the Company or the Warrant Agent from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or impair the operation of customary practices of the Depository or Participants governing the exercise of the rights of a Beneficial Owner.

(b) where an Exercise Notice or other document appears on its face to have been improperly completed or executed or some other irregularity in connection with the exercise of the Warrant exists, the Warrant Agent shall endeavor to inform the appropriate parties (including the Person submitting such instrument) of the need for fulfillment of all requirements, specifying those requirements which appear to be unfulfilled;

The Company reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions to the exercise of Warrants or defects in Exercise Notices with regard to any particular exercise of Warrants.

(c) The Warrant Agent shall have no liability for any failure or delay in performing its duties hereunder caused by any failure or delay of the Company in providing such calculations or items to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock or Units of Reference Property that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant, and it makes no representation with respect thereto. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible, to the extent not arising from the Warrant Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), for any failure of the Company to make any Cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or Units of Reference Property, or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article 3.

Section 4.01 Adjustments to Exercise Price. After the date on which the Warrants are first issued and while any Warrants remain outstanding and unexpired, the Exercise Price for the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment (without duplication) upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

(a) The issuance of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution to all holders of Common Stock, or a subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater or smaller number of shares, in which event the Exercise Price shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) the Open of Business on the Ex-Date in the case of a dividend or distribution or (ii) the consummation of the transaction in the case of a subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification. If any dividend or distribution or subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification of the type described in this Section 4.01(a) is declared or announced but not so paid or made, the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution or subdivision, combination, split, reverse split or reclassification had not been declared or announced, as the case may be.

(b) The issuance as a dividend or distribution to all holders of Common Stock of evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock or other securities (other than Common Stock), Cash or other property (excluding any dividend or distribution covered by Section 4.01(a)), in which event the Exercise Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:

Such decrease shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution. In the event that such dividend or distribution is declared or announced but not so paid or made, the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared or announced.

(c) The payment in respect of any tender offer or exchange offer by the Company for Common Stock, where the Cash and Fair Value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Fair Value of a share of Common Stock as of the Open of Business on the second Business Day preceding the expiration date of the tender or exchange offer (the “Offer Expiration Date”), in which event the Exercise Price will be adjusted based on the following formula:

An adjustment, if any, to the Exercise Price pursuant to this clause (c) shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Offer Expiration Date. In the event that the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such

purchases are rescinded, then the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, if the application of this clause (c) to any tender offer or exchange offer would result in an increase in the Exercise Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer or exchange offer under this clause (c).

(d) If any single action would require adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to more than one subsection of this Section 4.01, only one adjustment shall be made and such adjustment shall be the amount of adjustment that has the highest, relative to the rights and interests of the registered holders of the Warrants then outstanding, absolute value. For the purpose of calculations pursuant to Section 4.01, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding shall be equal to the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to the conversion or exercise of Convertible Securities that are outstanding, in each case on the applicable date of determination.

(e) The Company may from time to time, to the extent permitted by law, decrease the Exercise Price and/or increase the Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate by any amount for any period of at least twenty days. In that case, the Company shall give the Global Warrant Holder and the Warrant Agent at least ten days’ prior written notice of such increase or decrease, and such notice shall state the decreased Exercise Price and/or increased Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate and the period during which the decrease and/or increase will be in effect. The Company may make such decreases in the Exercise Price and/or increases in the Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate, in addition to those set forth in this Article 4, as the Board deems advisable, including to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of the Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes.

(f) Notwithstanding this Section 4.01 or any other provision of this Warrant Agreement or the Warrants, if an Exercise Price adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Date, and a Warrant has been exercised on or after such Ex-Date and on or prior to the related Record Date resulting in the Person issued shares of Common Stock being treated as the record holder of the Common Stock on or prior to the Record Date, then, notwithstanding the Exercise Price adjustment provisions in this Section 4.01, the Exercise Price adjustment relating to such Ex-Date will not be made with respect to such Warrant. Instead, such Person will be treated as if it were the record owner of shares of Common Stock on an un-adjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

Section 4.02 Adjustments to Number of Warrants. Concurrently with any adjustment to the Exercise Price under Section 4.01, the Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate will be adjusted such that the Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate in effect immediately following the effectiveness of such adjustment will be equal to the Number of Warrants for the Global Warrant Certificate in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and (ii) the denominator of which is the Exercise Price in effect immediately following such adjustment.

(a) Rights or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”):

shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of Article 4 (and no adjustment to the Exercise Price or the Number of Warrants under this Article 4 will be made) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants shall be made under this Article 4 (subject in all respects to Section 4.04).

(b) If any such right or warrant is subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Record Date with respect to new rights or warrants with such rights (subject in all respects to Section 4.04).

(c) In addition, except as set forth in Section 4.04, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in Section 4.03(b)) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants under Article 4 was made (including any adjustment contemplated in Section 4.04):

(1) in the case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by the holders thereof, the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a distribution under Section 4.01(b), equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase; and

(2) in the case of such rights or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by the holders thereof, the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued or distributed.

Section 4.04 Stockholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a stockholder rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock, upon exercise of a Warrant the applicable Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the share of Common Stock, the rights under

such stockholder rights plan, unless, prior to such exercise, such rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company had made a distribution to all holders of Common Stock as described in the first paragraph of Section 4.01(b), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(a) Except in accordance with Section 4.01, the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants will not be adjusted for the issuance of shares of Common stock or other securities of the Company.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Exercise Price nor the Number of Warrants will be adjusted:

(1) upon the issuance of any securities by the Company on or after the Closing Date pursuant to the Plan or upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of such securities;

(2) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) pursuant to the Management Stock Option Plan;

(3) upon any issuance of any shares of Common Stock (or Convertible Securities) pursuant to the exercise of the Warrants; or

(c) No adjustment shall be made to the Exercise Price or the Number of Warrants for any of the transactions described in Section 4.01 if the Company makes provisions for participation in any such transaction with respect to Warrants without exercise of such Warrants on the same basis as with respect to Common Stock with notice that the Board determines in good faith to be fair and appropriate.

(d) No adjustment shall be made to the Exercise Price, nor will any corresponding adjustment be made to the Number of Warrants, unless the adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% of the Exercise Price; provided, however, that any adjustment of less than 1% that was not made by reason of this Section 4.05(d) shall be carried forward and made as soon as such adjustment, together with any other adjustments not previously made by reason of this Section 4.05(d), would result in a change of at least 1% in the aggregate. All calculations under this Article 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/100th of a share of Common Stock, as the case may be.

(e) If the Company takes a record of the holders of Common Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or other distribution, and thereafter (and before the dividend or distribution has been paid or delivered to stockholders) legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution, then thereafter no adjustment to the Exercise Price or the Number of Warrants then in effect shall be required by reason of the taking of such record.

Section 4.06 Successor upon Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets; Mandatory Redemption.

(a) Other than with respect to an Excepted Combination, the Company may only consolidate or merge with any other Person (a “Fundamental Equity Change”), so long as the Company is the surviving Person, or, in the event that the Company is not the surviving Person:

(1) the successor to the Company assumes all of the Company’s obligations under this Warrant Agreement and the Warrants in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Warrant Holders representing a majority of the aggregate Number of Warrants at the time outstanding; and

(2) the successor to the Company provides written notice of such assumption to the Warrant Agent.

(b) In the case of any Fundamental Equity Change other than an Excepted Combination, the successor entity shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the Company; provided, however, such successor entity shall provide the Warrant Agent with any such identifying corporate information as reasonably required by the Warrant Agent. Such successor entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue any or all of the Global Warrants issuable pursuant to this Warrant Agreement which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company; and, upon the order of such successor entity, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Warrant Agreement prescribed, the Warrant Agent shall authenticate and deliver, as applicable, any Global Warrants that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Warrant Agent for authentication, and any Global Warrants which such successor entity thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Warrant Agent for such purpose.

(c) In the event that the Company desires to sell, lease, convey or otherwise transfer in one transaction or a series of related transactions all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries to any Qualified Asset Buyer (a “Qualified Asset Sale”), the Company may only consummate such Qualified Asset Sale if such Qualified Asset Buyer agrees (i) to enter into a warrant agreement on terms and conditions substantially similar to this Warrant Agreement, and (ii) issue warrants for the equity in such Qualified Asset Buyer to the Warrant Holders on terms and conditions substantially similar to the Warrants, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Warrant Holders representing a majority of the aggregate Number of Warrants at the time outstanding.

(d) In the event that the Company consummates an Excepted Combination or sells, conveys or otherwise transfers in one transaction or a series of related transactions all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries to any Person that is not a Qualified Asset Buyer (a “Non-Qualified Asset Sale”) on or prior to April 29, 2017 the Company shall mandatorily redeem all outstanding Warrants at a purchase price equal to 10% of the Black-Scholes valuation of such Warrants (the “Redemption Price”), assuming (i) an expiration date equal to the date set forth in clause (i) of the definition of Expiration Date, (ii) a

volatility of 40%, (iii) the assumed risk-free rate will equal the yield on the U.S. Treasury security with a maturity closest to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, as the yield on that security exists as of the date of the consummation of the Excepted Combination or Non-Qualified Asset Sale, provided, however, that if the period from the redemption date to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date is not equal to the constant maturity of a U.S. Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the risk-free rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of U.S. Treasury securities for which such yields are given and (iv) a stock price equal to the Fair Value of the Common Stock underlying such Warrant, in each case as determined based on the thirty-day volume-weighted average price from the period beginning thirty-one calendar days before the announcement of an Excepted Combination or Non-Qualified Asset Sale that is expected to be consummated on or prior to April 29, 2017 and ending one calendar day prior to such announcement, provided, however, that if the announcement of an Expected Combination or Non-Qualified Asset Sale occurs less than thirty days from the Closing Date, then the volume-weighted average price shall be determined from the Closing Date to the date prior to such announcement; provided further that any such mandatory redemption effected pursuant to this Section 4.06(d) shall only be effected if the price per share of Common Stock is less than the Exercise Price. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the amounts due pursuant to this Section 4.06(d), if any, shall survive the termination of the Warrants and this Agreement and (2) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect the mandatory redemption on or promptly following the consummation of the Excepted Combination, and in any event within 30 days thereafter.

(a) If there occurs any Fundamental Equity Change (other than an Excepted Combination) or any recapitalization, reorganization, consolidation, reclassification, change in the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination to which Section 4.07(a). applies), statutory share exchange or other transaction (each such event a “Reorganization Event”), in each case as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, changed into or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including Cash or any combination thereof) (the “Reference Property”), then following the effective time of the Reorganization Event, the right to receive shares of Common Stock upon exercise of a Warrant shall be changed to a right to receive, upon exercise of such Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including Cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have owned or been entitled to receive in connection with such Reorganization Event (such kind and amount of Reference Property per share of Common Stock, a “Unit of Reference Property”). In the event holders of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in a Reorganization Event, the type and amount of consideration into which the Warrants shall be exercisable from and after the effective time of such Reorganization Event shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock in such Reorganization Event. The Company hereby agrees not to become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4.07.

(b) At any time from, and including, the effective time of a Reorganization Event:

(1) if Full Physical Settlement applies upon exercise of a Warrant, the Full Physical Share Amount per Warrant shall be equal to a single Unit of Reference Property;

(2) if Net Share Settlement applies upon exercise of a Warrant, the Net Share Amount per Warrant shall be a number of Units of Reference Property in accordance with Section 3.03(c);

(3) the Company shall pay Cash in lieu of delivering any fraction of a Unit of Reference Property or any fractional Warrant in accordance with Section 3.05 based on the Fair Value of the Unit of Reference Property as of the Exercise Date; and

(4) the Fair Value shall be calculated with respect to a Unit of Reference Property.

(c) On or prior to the effective time of any Reorganization Event (other than an Excepted Combination), the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute an amendment to this Warrant Agreement providing that the Warrants shall be exercisable for Units of Reference Property in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.07. If the Reference Property in connection with any Reorganization Event includes shares of stock or other securities and assets of a Person other than the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, in such Reorganization Event, then the Company shall cause such amendment to this Warrant Agreement to be executed by such other Person and such amendment shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Global Warrant Holder (for the benefit of the Beneficial Owners under this Warrant Agreement) as the Board and Warrant Holders representing a majority of the aggregate Number of Warrants at the time outstanding shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing. Any such amendment to this Warrant Agreement shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4. In the event the Company shall execute an amendment to this Warrant Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.07, the Company shall promptly file with the Warrant Agent an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of Cash, securities or property or assets that will comprise a Unit of Reference Property after the relevant Reorganization Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of the amendment to be mailed to the Global Warrant Holder, at its address appearing on the Warrant Register, within 20 Business Days after execution thereof.

(d) The above provisions of this Section 4.07 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(e) If this Section 4.07 applies to any event or occurrence, no other provision of this Article 4 shall apply to such event or occurrence (other than Section 4.06).

Section 4.08 Common Stock Outstanding; Shares Reserved for Issuance on Exercise.

(a) For the purposes of this Article 4, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) The Board has authorized and reserved for issuance such number of shares of Common Stock as will be issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants for shares of Common Stock (assuming, for purposes of this covenant, that Full Physical Settlement applies to all Warrants exercised hereunder). The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that shall be so issuable shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

(c) The Company agrees to authorize and direct its current and future transfer agents for the Common Stock to reserve for issuance the number of shares of Common Stock specified in this Section 4.08 and shall take all action required to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock if at any time there shall be insufficient authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to permit such reservation or to permit the exercise of a Warrant (an “Authorized Share Failure”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, as soon as practicable after the date of the occurrence of an Authorized Share Failure, but in no event later than 180 days after the occurrence of such Authorized Share Failure, the Company shall hold a meeting of its stockholders for the approval of an increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall use its best efforts to solicit its stockholders’ approval of such increase in authorized shares of Common Stock and to cause its Board to recommend to the stockholders that they approve such proposal. The Company shall instruct the transfer agent to deliver to the Warrant Agent, upon written request from the Warrant Agent, stock certificates (or beneficial interests therein) required to honor outstanding Warrants upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of this Warrant Agreement. The Company shall pay to the Warrant Agent, as agent for the Global Warrant Holder, any Cash that may be payable as provided in this Article 4. Promptly after the date of expiration of any Warrants, the Warrant Agent shall certify to the Company the aggregate Number of Warrants then outstanding, and thereafter no shares shall be required to be reserved in respect of such Warrants.

(a) Subject to Section 4.09(b), the Company shall be responsible for making all calculations called for under this Warrant Agreement, including the Exercise Date, the Fair Value, the Exercise Price, the Number of Warrants and the number of shares of Common Stock or Units of Reference Property, if any, to be issued upon exercise of any Warrants. The Company shall make the foregoing calculations in good faith. Such calculations and determinations shall be final and binding on the Global Warrant Holder and all Beneficial Owners absent manifest error. The Company shall provide a schedule of the Company’s calculations to the Warrant Agent, and the Warrant Agent is entitled to rely upon the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent verification.

(b) In the event the Board engages an independent appraiser to advise it with respect to the determination of Fair Value, the Board shall be entitled to rely upon the determination of such independent appraiser. The Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such independent appraiser. The Global Warrant Holder shall be notified promptly of any consideration other than Cash to be received or paid by the Company and furnished with a description of the consideration and the Fair Value thereof, as determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions.

Section 4.10 Notice of Adjustments. The Company shall mail, or cause to be mailed, to the Global Warrant Holder and the Warrant Agent, in accordance with Section 6.15, a notice of any adjustment or readjustment to the Exercise Prices or the Number of Warrants no less than three Business Days prior to the effective date of such adjustment or readjustment. The Company shall file with the Warrant Agent such notice and an Officer’s Certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and kind and amount of securities, Cash or other property for which a Warrant shall thereafter be exercisable and the applicable Exercise Price, showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Officer’s Certificate shall be conclusive evidence that the adjustment or readjustment is correct, and the Warrant Agent shall not be deemed to have any knowledge of any adjustments or readjustments unless and until it has received such Officer’s Certificate. The Warrant Agent shall not be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such Officer’s Certificate except to exhibit the same to the Global Warrant Holder.

Section 4.11 Warrant Agent Not Responsible for Adjustments or Validity. The Warrant Agent shall at no time be under any duty or responsibility to determine whether any facts exist that may require an adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price and the Number of Warrants, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment or readjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, herein or in any supplemental agreement provided to be employed, in making the same. The Warrant Agent shall have no duty to verify or confirm any calculation called for hereunder. The Warrant Agent shall have no liability for any failure or delay in performing its duties hereunder caused by any failure or delay of the Company in providing such calculations to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock or of any securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of any Warrant or upon any adjustment or readjustment pursuant to this Article 4, and it makes no representation with respect thereto. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of the Company to make any Cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or scrip upon the surrender of any Warrant for the purpose of exercise or upon any adjustment pursuant to this Article 4, or to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article 4. The Warrant Agent shall have no implied duties or obligations and shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein or in any notice from the Company. The Warrant Agent may rely conclusively, and shall be protected in acting, upon any notice, instruction, request, order, judgment, certification, opinion or advice of counsel, statement, demand or other instrument or document, not only as to its due execution, validity (including the authority of the person signing or presenting the same) and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which the Warrant Agent shall believe to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the person or parties purporting to sign the same.

Section 4.12 Statements on Warrants. Other than notation of any applicable increase or decrease in the Number of Warrants on Schedule A of the Global Warrant Certificate, the form of

the Global Warrant Certificate need not be changed because of any adjustment or readjustment made pursuant to this Article 4, and the Global Warrant Certificate issued after such adjustment or readjustment may state the same information (other than the applicable adjusted Exercise Price and the adjusted Number of Warrants) as is stated in the Global Warrant Certificate initially issued pursuant to this Warrant Agreement.

Section 4.13 Effect of Adjustment. The Depository and applicable Participants shall effect any applicable adjustments, changes or payments to the Beneficial Owners with respect to beneficial interests in the Global Warrants resulting from any adjustments or readjustments, changes or payments effected pursuant to this Article 4 in accordance with the procedures of the Depository and the applicable Participants.

Section 5.01 No Rights as Stockholders. Nothing contained in this Warrant Agreement or in the Global Warrant Certificate shall be construed as conferring upon any Person, by virtue of holding or having a beneficial interest in a Global Warrant, the right to vote, to consent, to receive any Cash dividends, stock dividends, allotments or rights or other distributions paid, allotted or distributed or distributable to the holders of Common Stock, or to exercise any rights whatsoever as the Company’s stockholders unless, until and only to the extent such Beneficial Owners become holders of record of shares of Common Stock issued upon settlement of the Warrants; provided however, the Global Warrant Holder shall be entitled to notice of all stockholder meetings as required to be made to all stockholders in accordance with the Company’s bylaws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (a) the Company effects a split of the Common Stock by means of a stock dividend and the Exercise Price of and the number of Warrants are adjusted as of the date of the distribution of the dividend, and (b) a Beneficial Owner exercises a Warrant between the Record Date and the distribution date for such stock dividend, the Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to receive, on the distribution date, the stock dividend with respect to the shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise, notwithstanding the fact that such shares were not outstanding as of the Close of Business on the Record Date for such stock dividend.

Section 5.02 Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. If a Global Warrant Certificate held by the Warrant Agent as custodian for the Depository at any time is mutilated, defaced, lost, destroyed or stolen, then on the terms set forth in this Warrant Agreement, such Global Warrant Certificate may be replaced with a new Global Warrant Certificate, of like date and tenor and representing the same number of Warrants, at the cost of the Company at the office of the Warrant Agent subject to the replacement procedures of the Warrant Agent which shall include obtaining an open penalty surety bond satisfactory to the Warrant Agent holding the Company and the Warrant Agent harmless. Any such new Global Warrant Certificate shall constitute an original contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Global Warrant Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. All Global Warrant Certificates shall be issued upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the substitution for lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Global Warrant Certificates, and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any Law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the substitution for and replacement of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

(a) The Company will not, by amendment of the Charter or through reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of a Warrant or this Warrant Agreement, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Global Warrant Holder and the Beneficial Owners under this Warrant Agreement against impairment.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of this Warrant and (b) take all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of a Warrant.

(c) Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Exercise Price below the then par value of the Common Stock, the Company will take any corporate action that may be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted Exercise Price.

(a) This Warrant Agreement may be modified or amended by the Company and the Warrant Agent, without the consent of the Global Warrant Holder, any Beneficial Owner of any Warrant, or any applicable Participant with respect to any Warrant, for the purposes of curing any ambiguity or correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained in this Warrant Agreement or to make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising in this Warrant Agreement which the Company and the Warrant Agent may deem necessary or desirable; provided that such modification or amendment does not adversely affect the interests of the Global Warrant Holder or any of the Beneficial Owners under this Agreement in any material respect. As a condition precedent to the Warrant Agent’s execution of any amendment, the Company shall deliver to the Warrant Agent a certificate from an Appropriate Officer that states that the proposed amendment is in compliance with the terms of this Section 5.04.

(b) Modifications and amendments to this Warrant Agreement or to the terms and conditions of Warrants not contemplated by Section 5.04(a) may also be made by the Company and the Warrant Agent, and noncompliance with any provision of the Warrant Agreement or Warrants may be waived by the Global Warrant Holder (pursuant to a proper vote or consent of the Beneficial Owners holding a majority of the aggregate Number of Warrants at the time outstanding). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company may amend Schedule A from time to time to accurately reflect the name and address of the Global Warrant Holder after the Closing Date without any further consent or agreement from any other Person.

(1) The Global Warrant Holder (pursuant to a proper vote or consent of each Beneficial Owner of Warrants under this Warrant Agreement):

(B) increase the Exercise Price or decrease the Number of Warrants (except as set forth in Article 4);

(2) the Global Warrant Holder (pursuant to a proper vote or consent of the Beneficial Owners of two-thirds of the Warrants affected under this Warrant Agreement):

(A) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment or delivery with respect to the exercise and settlement of any Warrant;

(B) except as otherwise expressly permitted by provisions of this Warrant Agreement concerning specified reclassifications or corporate reorganizations, impair or adversely affect the exercise rights of Beneficial Owners, including any change to the calculation or payment of the Full Physical Share Amount or the Net Share Amount, as applicable;

(C) reduce the percentage of Warrants outstanding necessary to modify or amend this Warrant Agreement or to waive any past default; or

at the time deliverable upon the exercise of a Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or Securities) for Securities or other property deliverable upon such other event. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Global Warrant Holder from exercising its Warrant during the 15 day period (35 days in the case of an Excepted Combination or a Non-Qualified Asset Sale) commencing on the date of such notice.

(a) The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable upon the initial issuance of the Global Warrants hereunder and delivery to the Global Warrant Holder.

(b) The Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer taxes that may be payable upon the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of Warrants hereunder and the issuance of stock certificates in respect thereof in the respective names of, or in such names as may be directed by, the exercising Beneficial Owners.

(c) The Warrant Agent shall not register any Transfer or issue or deliver any Global Warrant Certificate or shares of Common Stock unless or until the persons requesting the registration or issuance has either (i) paid to the Warrant Agent for the account of the Company the amount of the taxes described in Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b) payable with respect to such Transfer, if any, or (ii) established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Warrant Agent that such tax, if any, has been paid by the Company.

(d) Nothing herein shall prejudice the applicability of Section 1146 of the Bankruptcy Code and the rights of the Company and other interested parties thereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the Company pays or is obligated to pay withholding taxes or backup withholding on or with respect to any deemed (or constructive) distribution on behalf of a Beneficial Owner as a result of an adjustment to the Exercise Price or the lack thereof, or for any other adjustment or other reason, the Company may, at its option, set off such payments against payments of cash or other deliveries on the Warrant to such Beneficial Owner. If the Company is required to remit an amount of tax in respect of any such withholding taxes or backup withholding, then, without duplication for any amount that the Company has set off pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the amount so required to be remitted shall be payable by the Beneficial Owner within 10 business days of written demand by the Company.

Section 6.02 Certain Tax Filings. The Warrant Agent shall prepare and file with the appropriate governmental agency all appropriate tax information forms in respect of any payments made by the Warrant Agent hereunder (including, without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-B) during each calendar year, or any portion thereof, during which the Warrant Agent performs services hereunder.

(a) The Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged from all further duties and liabilities hereunder (except for liability arising as a result of the Warrant Agent’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction)) after giving sixty days’ notice in writing to the Company, except that such shorter notice may be given as the Company shall, in writing, accept as sufficient. If the office of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing a successor warrant agent in place of the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of thirty days after it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the resigning or incapacitated warrant agent or by the Global Warrant Holder (who shall, with such notice, submit his Global Warrant Certificate for inspection by the Company), then the Global Warrant Holder may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor warrant agent.

(b) The Warrant Agent may be removed by the Company at any time upon thirty days’ written notice to the Warrant Agent; provided, however, that the Company shall not remove the Warrant Agent until a successor warrant agent meeting the qualifications hereof shall have been appointed.

(c) Any successor warrant agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such a court, shall be a corporation or banking association organized, in good standing and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and having a combined capital and surplus (together with its affiliates) of not less than $50,000,000. The combined capital and surplus of any such successor warrant agent shall be deemed to be the combined capital and surplus as set forth in the most recent report of its condition published prior to its appointment; provided that such reports are published at least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of a federal or state supervising or examining authority. After acceptance in writing of such appointment by the successor warrant agent, such successor warrant agent shall be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties and obligations of its predecessor warrant agent with like effect as if originally named as warrant agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but if for any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor warrant agent shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor warrant agent all the authority, powers and rights of such predecessor warrant agent hereunder; and upon request of any successor warrant agent, the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all instruments in writing to more fully and effectually vest in and conform to such successor warrant agent all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties and obligations. Upon assumption by a successor warrant agent of the duties and responsibilities hereunder, the predecessor warrant agent shall deliver and transfer, at the expense of the Company, to the successor warrant agent any property at the time held by it hereunder. As soon as practicable after such appointment, the Company shall give notice thereof to the predecessor warrant agent, the Global Warrant Holder and each transfer agent for the shares of its Common Stock. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the validity of the appointment of the successor warrant agent.

(d) Any entity into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust or agency business of the Warrant Agent, shall be the successor warrant agent under this Warrant Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that such entity would be eligible for appointment as a successor warrant agent under Section 6.03(c). In case at the time such successor to the Warrant Agent shall succeed to the agency created by this Warrant Agreement, the Global Warrant Certificate shall have been countersigned but not delivered, any such successor to the Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignature of the original Warrant Agent and deliver such Global Warrant Certificate so countersigned, and in case at that time the Global Warrant Certificate shall not have been countersigned, any successor to the Warrant Agent may countersign such Global Warrant Certificate either in the name of the predecessor Warrant Agent or in the name of the successor Warrant Agent; and in all such cases the Global Warrant Certificate shall have the full force provided in the Global Warrant Certificate and in this Warrant Agreement.

(e) In case at any time the name of the Warrant Agent shall be changed and at such time the Global Warrant Certificate shall have been countersigned but not delivered, the Warrant Agent may adopt the countersignatures under its prior name and deliver such Global Warrant Certificate so countersigned; and in case at that time the Global Warrant Certificate shall not have been countersigned, the Warrant Agent may countersign such Global Warrant Certificate either in its prior name or in its changed name; and in all such cases such Global Warrant Certificate shall have the full force provided in the Global Warrant Certificate and in this Warrant Agreement.

Section 6.04 Compensation; Further Assurances. The Company agrees that it will (a) pay the Warrant Agent reasonable compensation for its services as Warrant Agent in accordance with Exhibit C attached hereto and, except as otherwise expressly provided, will pay or reimburse the Warrant Agent upon written demand for all reasonable and documented expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Warrant Agent in accordance with any of the provisions of this Warrant Agreement (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel incurred in connection with the execution and administration of this Warrant Agreement), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its or any of their gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), and (b) perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged and delivered all such further and other acts, instruments and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for the carrying out or performing of the provisions of this Warrant Agreement.

Section 6.05 Reliance on Counsel. The Warrant Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be legal counsel for the Company), and the written opinion of such counsel or any advice of legal counsel subsequently confirmed by a written opinion of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection to the Warrant Agent as to any action taken or omitted by it in the absence of bad faith and in accordance with such written opinion or advice.

Section 6.06 Proof of Actions Taken. Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Warrant Agreement the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that any matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Warrant Agent, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Warrant Agent; and such Officer’s Certificate shall, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Warrant Agent, be full warrant to the Warrant Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted in the absence of bad faith by it under the provisions of this Warrant Agreement in reliance upon such Officer’s Certificate; but in its discretion the Warrant Agent may in lieu thereof accept other evidence of such fact or matter or may require such further or additional evidence as to it may seem reasonable. In the event the Warrant Agent reasonably believes any ambiguity or uncertainty exists hereunder or in any notice, instruction, direction, request or other communication, paper or document received by the Warrant Agent hereunder, the Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Company of any such ambiguity or uncertainty, and it may, in its sole discretion, refrain from taking any action, and shall be fully protected and shall not be liable in any way to the Company, a Global Warrant Holder or any other person or entity for refraining from taking such action, except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). unless the Warrant Agent receives written instructions signed by the Company which eliminates such ambiguity or uncertainty to the satisfaction of Warrant Agent.

Section 6.07 Correctness of Statements. The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for or by reason of any of the statements of fact or recitals contained in this Warrant Agreement or in the Global Warrant Certificate (except its countersignature thereof) or be required to verify the same, and all such statements and recitals are and shall be deemed to have been made by the Company only.

Section 6.08 Validity of Agreement. From time to time, the Warrant Agent may apply to any officer of the Company for instruction and the Company shall provide the Warrant Agent with such instructions concerning the services to be provided hereunder. The Warrant Agent shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any Person, until receipt of notice thereof from the Company. The Warrant Agent shall not be under any responsibility in respect of the validity of this Warrant Agreement or the execution and delivery hereof or in respect of the validity or execution of the Global Warrant Certificate (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or condition contained in this Warrant Agreement or in the Global Warrant Certificate; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Warrant Agreement or any Warrants or as to whether any shares of Common Stock will, when issued, be validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable. The Warrant Agent and its agents shall not be liable and shall be indemnified by the Company for any action taken or omitted, in the absence of bad faith, by the Warrant Agent in reliance upon any instructions from the Company.

Section 6.09 Use of Agents. The Warrant Agent may execute and exercise any of the rights or powers hereby vested in it or perform any duty hereunder either itself or by or through its attorneys or agents provided that the Warrant Agent shall remain responsible for the activities or omissions of any such agent or attorney and reasonable care has been exercised in the selection and in the continued employment of such attorney or agent.

Section 6.10 Liability of Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent shall incur no liability or responsibility to the Company or to the Global Warrant Holder for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in reliance on any notice, resolution, waiver, consent, order, certificate, or other paper, document or instrument believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties. The Company agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all costs, losses, expenses, liabilities and damages that the Warrant Agent has paid, incurred or suffered (or which it becomes obligated to pay, incur or suffer) by or to which it becomes subject, including judgments, costs and reasonable counsel fees, for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by the Warrant Agent in the execution or performance of this Warrant Agreement or otherwise arising in connection with this Warrant Agreement, except as a result of the Warrant Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined by a final non- appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall obligate the Company to advance any amounts to the Warrant Agent in respect of contingent liabilities until such liabilities actually are or become paid or payable. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Warrant Agent’s aggregate liability during any term of this Warrant Agreement with respect to, arising from, or arising in connection with this Warrant Agreement, or from all services provided or omitted to be provided under this Warrant Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed, the amounts paid hereunder by the Company to the Warrant Agent as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses, during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event for which recovery from Warrant Agent is being sought. Neither party to this Warrant Agreement shall be liable to the other party for any consequential, indirect, punitive, special or incidental damages under any provisions of this Warrant Agreement or for any consequential, indirect, punitive, special or incidental damages arising out of any act or failure to act hereunder even if that party has been advised of or has foreseen the possibility of such damages.

Section 6.11 Legal Proceedings. The Warrant Agent shall be under no obligation to institute any action, suit or legal proceeding or to take any other action likely to involve expense or that it reasonably believes would subject it to expense or liability or risk of incurring expense or liability, unless the Company, the Global Warrant Holder or any applicable Participant on behalf of a Beneficial Owner shall furnish the Warrant Agent with indemnity or other assurances for payment reasonably satisfactory to the Warrant Agent for any costs and expenses which may be incurred, but this provision shall not affect the power of the Warrant Agent to take such action as the Warrant Agent may consider proper, whether with or without any such security or indemnity. The Warrant Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Global Warrant Holder in writing of any claim made or action, suit or proceeding instituted against it arising out of or in connection with this Warrant Agreement. The Warrant Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility in the case of the receipt of any written demand from any Beneficial Owner with respect to any action or default by the Company, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any duty or responsibility to initiate or attempt to initiate any proceedings at law or otherwise or to make any demand upon the Company.

Section 6.12 Actions as Agent. The Warrant Agent shall act hereunder solely as agent and not in a ministerial or fiduciary capacity. The duties and obligations of the Warrant Agent shall be determined solely by the express provisions of the Warrant Agreement, and the Warrant Agent shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in the Warrant Agreement. No implied covenants or obligations shall be read into the Warrant Agreement against the Warrant Agent. Subject to Section 6.26 below and applicable securities laws, the Warrant Agent and any stockholder, director, officer or employee of the Warrant Agent may buy, sell or deal in any of the Warrants or other securities of the Company or become pecuniarily interested in any transaction in which the Company may be interested, or contract with or lend money to the Company or otherwise act as fully and freely as though it were not Warrant Agent under this Warrant Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Warrant Agent or its officers, directors, managers, employees, agents or other representatives shall use Confidential Information (as defined in Section 6.26) (a) for any purpose other than carrying out the transactions contemplated by this Warrant Agreement, and (b) in contravention of applicable securities laws (including, without limitation, laws prohibiting insider trading). The Warrant Agent shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken in connection with this Warrant Agreement except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith (each as determined by a final non-appealable judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction).

Section 6.13 Appointment and Acceptance of Agency. The Company hereby appoints the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the Company in accordance with the instructions set forth in this Warrant Agreement, and the Warrant Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Warrant Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the terms and conditions herein set forth or as the Company and the Warrant Agent may hereafter agree.

The validity, interpretation and performance of this Warrant Agreement and the Global Warrant Certificate shall be governed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof that would result in the application of law of another jurisdiction. The parties hereto irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and any federal court located in such state in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Warrant Agreement. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that its failure to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder will cause irreparable injury to the Global Warrant Holder for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, the Company hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by courts of the State of New York and any federal court located in such state to compel performance of the Company’s obligations and to the granting by courts of the State of New York and any federal court located in such state of the remedy of specific performance of the Company’s obligations hereunder.

Section 6.17 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE WARRANT AGENT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY THAT MAY ARISE UNDER THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT OR A WARRANT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PERSON HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PERSON MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS WARRANT AGREEMENT OR A WARRANT.

Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant Agreement.

Section 6.24 Damages. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant Agreement or a Warrant, which failure results in any material damages to the Global Warrant Holder, the Company shall pay to the Global Warrant Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Global Warrant Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
