If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the Close of Business on the record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of the Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of the record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

The Initial Notes shall be composed of (a) $230,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Restricted Notes and (b) $71,054,000 aggregate principal amount of Affiliate Notes. The Company may, from time to time after the execution of this Indenture, without notice to or the consent of the Holders, execute and deliver to the Trustee for authentication Additional Notes that do not constitute Affiliate Notes in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Additional Notes to or upon receipt of a Company Order, without any further action by the Company hereunder; provided, however, that (1) if any such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes or securities law purposes, any such Additional Notes will have one or more separate CUSIP numbers so long as they remain not fungible; (2) such Additional Notes must have the same terms as the Initial Notes (other than differences in the issue date, the issue price, the date from which interest shall accrue and, if applicable, restrictions on transfer in respect of such Additional Notes); and (3) the Trustee must receive an Officer’s Certificate upon which it can rely to the effect that such issuance of Additional Notes complies with the provisions of this Indenture, including each provision of this paragraph.

The Notes shall be known and designated as the “3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029” of the Company. The principal amount shall be payable on the Maturity Date.

The principal amount of any Physical Notes shall be payable at the Corporate Trust Office and at any other office or agency in the continental United States maintained by the Company for such purpose. Interest on Physical Notes will be payable (i) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or less of Notes, by check mailed to such Holders at the address set forth in the Register and (ii) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of more than $1,000,000 of Notes, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account within the United States designated by such Holder in a written application delivered by such Holder to the Trustee and the Paying Agent not later than the relevant Regular Record Date for such interest payment, which application shall remain in effect until such Holder notifies the Trustee and Paying Agent to the contrary in writing. The Company will pay or cause the Paying Agent to pay principal of, and interest on, Global Notes in immediately available funds to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered holder of such Global Note, on each Interest Payment Date, Fundamental Change Purchase Date or other payment date, as the case may be.

Notes bearing the manual, facsimile or other electronic signatures of individuals who were, at the time of signing such Notes, an Officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold such office at the date of such Notes.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes. The Company Order shall specify the amount of Notes to be authenticated, and shall further specify the amount of such Notes to be issued as one or more Global Notes or as one or more Physical Notes. The Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes as provided in this Indenture and not otherwise.

Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.

No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by an authorized signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.05 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Physical Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the Officer executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by such Officer’s execution of such Notes; provided that any such temporary Notes shall bear legends on the face of such Notes as set forth in the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and/or Sections 2.07 and 2.11.

After the preparation of Physical Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Physical Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon Company Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Physical Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Physical Notes.

Section 2.06 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the applicable Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register in the continental United States (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 5.02 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the “Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Trustee is hereby appointed “Registrar” (the “Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 5.02 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, each such Note bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture (including the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and Sections 2.07 and 2.11).

At the option of the Holder and subject to the other provisions of Sections 2.07 and 2.11, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount and tenor, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

Every Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Company and the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 2.11 not involving any transfer.

Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Note in the circumstances set forth in Section 2.11(a)(iv).

(b) Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary (collectively, the “Agent Members”) nor any other Persons on whose behalf any Agent Member may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note registered in the name of the Depositary or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Note, and the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. The Trustee shall have no liability, responsibility or obligation to any Agent Members or any other Person on whose behalf Agent Members may act with respect to (i) any ownership interests in the Global Note, (ii) the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) any notice required hereunder, (iv) any payments under or with respect to the Global Note or (v) actions taken or not taken by any Agent Members.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written or electronic certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depositary, its Agent Members and any other Person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note. The registered Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Notes.

(iii) On and after the Resale Restriction Termination Date, shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Restricted Note will be issued in book-entry or certificated form (as determined by the Company) and will bear the Restricted Stock Legend at any time the Company reasonably determines that, to comply with law, such shares of Common Stock must bear the Restricted Stock Legend.

(iv) Any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of an Affiliate Note will be issued in book-entry form and will bear the Affiliate Restricted Stock Legend at any time the Company reasonably determines that, to comply with law, such shares of Common Stock must bear the Affiliate Restricted Stock Legend.

To exercise such right of exchange, the Holder of such Note must surrender such Note in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 and deliver any additional documentation reasonably required by the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar in connection with such exchange.

(b) Restricted Global Notes; Resale Restriction Termination Date.

(i) If, on the Free Trade Date, or the next succeeding Business Day if the Free Trade Date is not a Business Day, any Notes are represented by a Global Note that is a Restricted Note (any such Global Note, a “Restricted Global Note”), the Company will use reasonable efforts to effect an exchange of every beneficial interest in each Restricted Global Note for beneficial interests in Global Notes that are not subject to the restrictions set forth in the Restricted Notes Legend and in Section 2.07 hereof on or prior to the 375th day after the Last Original Issuance Date.

(ii) To effect such automatic exchange, the Company will (A) deliver to the Depositary an instruction letter for the Depositary’s mandatory exchange process within a period of time that is reasonably likely to result in such exchange occurring on or prior to the 375th day after the Last Original Issuance Date and (B) deliver to each of the Trustee and the Registrar a duly completed Free Transferability Certificate promptly after the Free Trade Date. The first date on which both the Trustee and the Registrar have received the Free Transferability Certificate will be known as the “Resale Restriction Termination Date.”

(iii) Immediately upon receipt of the Free Transferability Certificate by each of the Trustee and the Registrar:

(A) the Restricted Notes Legend will be deemed removed from each of the Global Notes specified in such Free Transferability Certificate and the restricted CUSIP number will be deemed removed from each of such Global Notes and deemed replaced with an unrestricted CUSIP number specified in the relevant Free Transferability Certificate;

(B) the Restricted Stock Legend will be deemed removed from any shares of Common Stock previously issued upon conversion of the Notes; and

(C) thereafter, shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes will be assigned an unrestricted CUSIP number and will not bear the Restricted Stock Legend (except as provided in Section 2.07(c)(iii)) or any similar legend.

(iv) Promptly after the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Company will provide Bloomberg L.P. (if then generally in use) with a copy of the Free Transferability Certificate and will direct Bloomberg L.P. (if then generally in use) to adjust its screen page for the Notes to indicate that the Notes are no longer Restricted Notes and are then identified by an unrestricted CUSIP number.

(v) Prior to the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate and afterwards, the Company and the Trustee will comply with the Applicable Procedures and otherwise use reasonable efforts to cause each Global Note to be identified by an unrestricted CUSIP number in the facilities of the Depositary by the date the Free Transferability Certificate is delivered to the Trustee and the Registrar or as promptly as possible thereafter.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 2.08(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), the Company will not be required to deliver the Free Transferability Certificate if it reasonably believes that removal of the Restricted Notes Legend or the changes to the CUSIP numbers for the Notes could result in or facilitate transfers of the Notes in violation of applicable law.

(vii) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.08(b) shall not apply to Affiliate Notes.

(c) Affiliate Notes. The Affiliate Notes Legend shall be removed from Affiliate Notes (and the restrictions on transfer therein contained shall cease to apply) only in connection with a transfer pursuant to Section 2.07(b).

Section 2.09 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless and such other reasonable requirements as may be imposed by the Company as permitted by Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code have been satisfied, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note.

Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.09, the Company may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.09 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 2.14 Payment and Computation of Interest. The Notes will bear cash interest at a rate of 3.75% per year until the Maturity Date.

Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months and, for partial months, on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed in a 30-day month. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment, or lack of payment, of interest on Notes surrendered for conversion will be governed by Section 4.03(d).

Section 2.15 Business Day. If any Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or any Fundamental Change Purchase Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue in respect of the delay.

Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall be responsible for determining if a Fundamental Change has occurred or for delivering a Fundamental Change Company Notice to Holders or for the content of the Fundamental Change Company Notice.

Section 3.08 Covenant To Comply with Applicable Laws upon Purchase of Notes. In connection with any offer to purchase Notes under Section 3.01, the Company shall, in each case if required by law (i) comply with Rule 13e-4, Rule 14d-3, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable, (ii) file a Schedule TO, including all required exhibits thereto, and any other required schedule under the Exchange Act and (iii) otherwise comply with all U.S. federal or state securities laws applicable to the Company in connection with such purchase offer, in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 3 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified under this Article 3, subject to applicable law.

Section 3.09 Repayment to the Company. To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.06 exceeds the aggregate Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Notes or portions thereof that the Company is obligated to purchase as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date then, following the Fundamental Change Purchase Date the Paying Agent shall promptly return any such excess to the Company.

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert any or all of its Notes, or any portion thereof, such that the principal amount that remains Outstanding of each Note that is not converted in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, into the Settlement Amount determined in accordance with Section 4.03(a)(ii) hereof, (x) prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding September 15, 2028, only upon satisfaction of one or more of the conditions described in Section 4.01(b) hereof, and (y) on or after September 15, 2028, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date regardless of the conditions described in Section 4.01(b) hereof.

(b) Prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding September 15, 2028, a Holder may surrender all or any portion (such that the principal amount that remains Outstanding of each Note that is not converted in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of its Notes for conversion during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2024 (and only during such calendar quarter) if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable Conversion Price in effect on each applicable Trading Day.

(ii) Prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding September 15, 2028, a Holder may surrender all or any portion (such that the principal amount that remains Outstanding of each Note that is not converted in full equals $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of its Notes for conversion during the five (5) consecutive Business Day period after any ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.01(b)(ii), for each Trading Day of such Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day and (y) the Conversion Rate in effect on such Trading Day. The Trading Price shall be determined by the Company or the Bid Solicitation Agent, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 4.01(b)(ii) and the definition of “Trading Price” set forth in Section 1.01 hereof. The Company shall provide notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent of the three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company in accordance with the definition of Trading Price, along with the appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes unless the Company has requested such determination; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price) unless a Holder of a Note provides it with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day and (y) the Conversion Rate in effect on such Trading Day. At such time, the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, it shall determine) the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for a Trading Day is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of (x) the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on such Trading Day and (y) the Conversion Rate in effect on such Trading Day. Whenever the condition to conversion set forth in this Section 4.01(b)(ii) has been met, the Company shall promptly so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee). If, at any time after the condition to conversion set forth in this Section 4.01(b)(ii) has been met, the condition to conversion set forth in this Section 4.01(b)(ii) ceases to be met, the Company will so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee). The Trustee shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes.

(iii) If the Company (x) issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants (other than any issuance of any rights, options or warrants issued under a stockholder rights plan that are (A) transferable with shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion, and (B) not exercisable until the occurrence of a triggering event; provided that such rights, options or warrants will be deemed issued under this subclause (x) upon the separation of such rights, options or warrants from the Common Stock, or upon the occurrence of such triggering event) entitling them for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock, at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance; or (y) distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock the Company’s assets, debt securities or rights to purchase the Company’s securities (other than (A) rights described in the immediately preceding subclause (x) or (B) any issuance of any rights, options or warrants issued under a stockholder rights plan that are (1) transferable with shares of Common Stock, including shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion, and (2) not exercisable until the occurrence of a triggering event), which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution, then, in either case, the Company must deliver notice of such issuance or distribution, and of the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution, to the Holders at least 70 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. After the Company has delivered such notice, Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time until the earlier of (a) Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Ex-Dividend Date and (b) the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time.

(iv) If the Company publicly announces a transaction or event that would, if consummated, constitute a Fundamental Change, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Share Exchange Event, or if any such transaction or event occurs (regardless of whether the Holders would have the right to require the Company to purchase their Notes pursuant to Article 3), the Company shall provide notice (a “Specified Corporate Transaction Notice”) of such specified corporate transaction or event to the Holders promptly following the first public announcement by the Company of such transaction or event or, in the case that no public announcement is made, promptly following the occurrence of such transaction or event. Upon receiving notice or otherwise becoming aware of a transaction or event that would, if consummated, constitute a Fundamental Change, Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Share Exchange Event, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to announce or cause the announcement of such transaction or event in time to deliver the related Specified Corporate Transaction Notice at least 70 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date for such transaction or event; provided that in no event will the Company be required to provide such notice to the Holders before the earlier of such time as the Company or its Affiliates (a) have publicly disclosed or acknowledged the circumstances giving rise to such transaction or event and (b) are required to publicly disclose under applicable law or the rules of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed the circumstances giving rise to such transaction or event. For any such potential Fundamental Change, Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Share Exchange Event, the Specified Corporate Transaction Notice shall describe:

(A) the transaction or event;

(B) the anticipated effective date of such transaction or event;

(D) the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company provides such notice;

(E) whether an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is expected to be made pursuant to Section 4.04 as a result of such transaction or event and the formula for determining any such adjustment;

(F) whether the relevant transaction or event is expected to constitute a Share Exchange Event, and, if so, that the Notes will become convertible into Reference Property, subject to the settlement provisions of this Indenture;

(G) whether the relevant transaction or event is expected to constitute a Fundamental Change, and, if so, that Holders will have the right to require the Company to purchase their Notes pursuant to Article 3; and

(H) whether the relevant transaction or event is expected to constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, and, if so, that the Conversion Rate will be increased under Section 4.06 for Notes converted in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

Upon the Company’s delivery of a Specified Corporate Transaction Notice, a Holder may surrender its Notes for conversion at any time until the 35th Trading Day immediately following the effective date of such transaction or event or, if such transaction or event constitutes a Fundamental Change, the Business Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to confirm the occurrence of any Fundamental Change, Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Share Exchange Event, and the Trustee may rely on an Officer’s Certificate with respect to whether any such event has occurred.

Section 4.02 Conversion Procedures.

(a) Each Note shall be convertible at the office of the Conversion Agent and, if applicable, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.

(b) To exercise the conversion privilege with respect to a beneficial interest in a Global Note, the Holder must comply with the Applicable Procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a Global Note and pay the funds, if any, required by Section 4.02(f) and any taxes or duties if required pursuant to Section 4.02(g), and the Conversion Agent must be informed of the conversion in accordance with the customary practice of the Depositary.

To exercise the conversion privilege with respect to any Physical Notes, the Holder of such Physical Notes shall:

(i) complete and manually sign a conversion notice in the form set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (the “Conversion Notice”) or a facsimile of the Conversion Notice;

(ii) deliver the Conversion Notice, which is irrevocable, and the Physical Note to the Conversion Agent;

(iii) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents;

(iv) if required, pay all transfer or similar governmental charges or duties as set forth in Section 4.02(g); and

(v) if required, make any payment required under Section 4.02(f).

If a Note has been submitted for purchase pursuant to a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice such Note may not be converted except to the extent such Note has been withdrawn by the Holder and is no longer submitted for purchase pursuant to a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice or unless such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof prior to the relevant Fundamental Change Expiration Time.

For any Note, the date on which the Holder of such Note satisfies all of the applicable requirements set forth above with respect to such Note shall be the “Conversion Date” with respect to such Note.

Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Notes (or portion thereof) surrendered for conversion at the Close of Business on the applicable Conversion Date; provided, however, that except to the extent required by Section 4.04 hereof, the Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion, if any, shall be treated as a stockholder of record (i) as of the Close of Business on the last VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period in the case of Combination Settlement and (ii) as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date in the case of Physical Settlement. For the avoidance of doubt, until a Holder is deemed to become the holder of record of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Holder’s Notes as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, such Holder shall not have any rights as a holder of the Common Stock with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Notes. At the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for a Note, the converting Holder shall no longer be the Holder of such Note.

(c) Endorsement. Any Notes surrendered for conversion shall, unless shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion are to be issued in the same name as the registration of such Notes, be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder or its duly authorized attorney.

(d) Physical Notes. If any Physical Notes in a denomination greater than $1,000 shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Physical Notes so surrendered, without charge, new Physical Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Physical Notes.

(e) Global Notes. Upon the conversion of a beneficial interest in Global Notes, the Conversion Agent shall make a notation in its records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversions of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.

(f) Interest Due Upon Conversion. If a Holder converts a Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date but prior to the Open of Business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, such Holder must accompany such Note with an amount of cash equal to the amount of interest that will be payable on such Note on the corresponding Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that a Holder need not make such payment (1) if the Conversion Date follows the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (3) to the extent of any overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Notes.

(g) Taxes Due upon Conversion. If a Holder converts a Note, the Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon the conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests that any shares be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder will pay that tax.

Section 4.03 Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a) Settlement. Subject to this Section 4.03 and Sections 4.04 and 4.06 hereof, upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to Holders, in full satisfaction of its conversion obligation under Section 4.01 hereof, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, a Settlement Amount consisting of, at the election of the Company, solely cash (“Cash Settlement”), solely shares of Common Stock (together with cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.03(b)) (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock (“Combination Settlement”).

(i) Settlement Election. All conversions occurring on or after September 15, 2028 shall be settled using the same Settlement Method. Prior to September 15, 2028, the Company will use the same Settlement Method for all conversions occurring on the same Conversion Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions that occur on different Conversion Dates. If the Company elects a Settlement Method (a “Settlement Election”) and a Specified Dollar Amount, if applicable (a “Specified Dollar Amount Election”), then the Company shall provide to the Holders so converting through the Trustee a notice of such Settlement Method (each such notice, a “Settlement Election Notice”) or such Specified Dollar Amount (each such notice, a “Specified Dollar Amount Election Notice”), no later than the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the related Conversion Date (or, in the case of any conversions occurring on or after September 15, 2028, no later than September 15, 2028). If the Company does not timely elect a Settlement Method, then the Company shall be deemed to have elected the Default Settlement Method that would apply to a conversion of Notes at the relevant time. If the Company elects Combination Settlement but does not timely notify converting Holders of the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, such Specified Dollar Amount will be deemed to be the Capped Combination Settlement Cash Amount or, following satisfaction of the Share Reservation Condition, $1,000.

If the Company has satisfied the Share Reservation Condition, the Company may, from time to time prior to September 15, 2028, by sending notice of the new Default Settlement Method to all Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee), change the Default Settlement Method to any Settlement Method that the Company is then permitted to elect. If the Company changes the Default Settlement Method in accordance with this Section 4.03(a)(i), the Company shall, concurrently with providing notice to all Holders of such change, either post the Default Settlement Method on the Company’s website or disclose the same in a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any successor form) that is filed with the Commission.

In addition, by notice to all Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee), the Company may, prior to September 15, 2028, at its option, irrevocably elect to satisfy its conversion obligation with respect to the Notes through any Settlement Method that the Company is then permitted to elect for all Conversion Dates occurring subsequent to delivery of such notice. Concurrently with providing notice to all Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of an election to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method, the Company shall update the Default Settlement Method if necessary and promptly file with, or furnish to, the Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (or any successor form) disclosing, issue a press release announcing or post on the Company’s website an announcement, that the Company has elected to irrevocably fix the Settlement Method (and describing such Settlement Method). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such irrevocable election shall affect any Settlement Method theretofore elected (or deemed to be elected) with respect to any Note pursuant to this Section 4.03. For the avoidance of doubt, such an irrevocable election, if made, shall be effective without the need to amend this Indenture or the Notes, including pursuant to Section 8.01(k). However, the Company may nonetheless choose to execute such an amendment at its option.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, unless and until the Company satisfies the Share Reservation Condition, the Company shall be prohibited from electing Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement; provided that, before the Company has satisfied the Share Reservation Condition, the Company shall be permitted to elect Capped Combination Settlement. The Company shall promptly notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing if the Company has satisfied the Share Reservation Condition. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any obligation to monitor or determine whether the Share Reservation Condition has been satisfied.

(ii) Settlement Amount. The cash, shares of Common Stock or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock in respect of any conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows:

(A) if the Company elects Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of its Notes being converted, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate, together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.03(b);

(B) if the Company elects Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of its Notes being converted, cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 60 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and

(C) if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of its Notes being converted, an amount of cash and number of shares of Common Stock, if any, equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 60 consecutive VWAP Trading Days during the related Observation Period.

(iii) Delivery Obligation. The Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Settlement Amount due in respect of its conversion obligation under Section 4.03 hereof, (i) on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date, if the Company elects Physical Settlement and (ii) on the second Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the related Observation Period, if the Company elects Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement.

(b) Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock as part of the Settlement Amount due with respect to any converted Note. Instead, if any Settlement Amount includes a fraction of a share of the Common Stock, the Company will, in lieu of delivering such fraction of a share of Common Stock, pay an amount of cash equal to the product of such fraction of a share and (i) in a Physical Settlement, the Daily VWAP on the relevant Conversion Date, or if such Conversion Date is not a VWAP Trading Day, the immediately preceding VWAP Trading Day or (ii) in a Combination Settlement, the Daily VWAP on the last VWAP Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (subject to Section 4.03(c) immediately below).

(c) Conversion of Multiple Notes by a Single Holder. If a Holder surrenders more than one Note for conversion on a single Conversion Date or with respect to which a single Observation Period (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the same VWAP Trading Days therein) would apply, the Company will calculate the amount of cash and the number of shares of Common Stock due with respect to such Notes as if such Holder had surrendered for conversion one Note having an aggregate principal amount equal to the sum of the principal amounts of each of the Notes surrendered for conversion by such Holder on the same Conversion Date.

(d) Settlement of Accrued Interest and Deemed Payment of Principal. If a Holder converts a Note, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, and the Company’s delivery or payment, as the case may be, of cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock into which a Note is convertible will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, such Note to, but excluding, the Conversion Date; provided, however, that subject to Section 4.02(f), if a Holder converts a Note after the Close of Business on a Regular Record Date and prior to the Open of Business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company will still be obligated to pay the interest due on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of such Note on such Regular Record Date.

As a result, except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to a converted Note will be deemed to be paid in full rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited. In addition, if the Settlement Amount for any Note includes both cash and shares of the Common Stock, accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the amount of cash delivered upon such conversion.

(e) Notices. Whenever a Conversion Date occurs with respect to a Note, the Conversion Agent will, as promptly as possible, and in no event later than the Open of Business on the Business Day immediately following such Conversion Date, deliver to the Company and the Trustee, if it is not then the Conversion Agent, notice that a Conversion Date has occurred, which notice will state such Conversion Date, the principal amount of Notes converted on such Conversion Date and the names of the Holders that converted Notes on such Conversion Date.

On the first Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the Observation Period applicable to any Note surrendered for conversion in a Cash Settlement or a Combination Settlement, the Company will deliver a written notice to the Conversion Agent and the Trustee (if not also the Conversion Agent) stating the amount of cash and the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, that the Company is obligated to pay or deliver, as the case may be, to satisfy its conversion obligation with respect to each Note converted on such Conversion Date.

Section 4.04 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate will be adjusted as described in this Section 4.04, except that the Company shall not make any adjustment to the Conversion Rate if Holders participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer) at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described below without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

(a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on all or substantially all shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	OS₁
	OS₀

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or combination, as applicable;

CR₁ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date, as applicable;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date, as applicable; and

OS₁ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable.

Any adjustment made under this Section 4.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 4.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a stockholders rights plan) entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock, at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	OS₀+ X
	OS₀+ Y

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;

CR₁= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

OS₀= the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.

Any increase made under this Section 4.04(b) will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are not delivered upon the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, or if such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

For purposes of this Section 4.04(b) and Section 4.01(b)(iii)(x) hereof, in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of the Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

(c) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding:

(i) dividends, distributions or issuances (including share splits) as to which an adjustment was effected (or would have been effected but for the 1% Exception) pursuant to Section 4.04(a) hereof or Section 4.04(b) hereof;

(ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in Section 4.04(d) below shall apply;

(iii) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 4.04(c) shall apply; and

(iv) dividends or distributions of Reference Property upon conversion of, or exchange for, Common Stock pursuant to any Share Exchange Event (as defined below under Section 4.07);

(any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities of the Company, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	SP₀
	SP₀- FMV

where,

CR₀= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;

CR₁= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date;

SP₀= the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value (as determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner) of Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock as of the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

If “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than the “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of Notes shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock and without having to convert its Notes, the amount and kind of Distributed Property that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date for the distribution.

Any increase made pursuant to the formula above will become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution (including a Spin-Off) is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to any Subsidiaries of the Company or business units of the Company, and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon the consummation of the distribution) on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	FMV₀ + MP₀
	MP₀

where,

CR₀= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;

CR₁= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;

FMV₀= the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of “Last Reported Sale Price” as if references therein to “Common Stock” were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀= the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

The increase to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur at the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that (x) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period, the reference to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, and including, such Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate and (y) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such conversion and within the Valuation Period, the reference to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, and including, such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day.

For purposes of the second adjustment formula set forth in this Section 4.04(c), (i) the Last Reported Sale Price of any Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be calculated in a manner analogous to that used to calculate the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock in the definition of “Last Reported Sale Price” set forth in Section 1.01 hereof, (ii) whether a day is a Trading Day (and whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day) for such Capital Stock or similar equity interest shall be determined in a manner analogous to that used to determine whether a day is a Trading Day (or whether a day is a Scheduled Trading Day) for the Common Stock and (iii) whether a day is a Trading Day to be included in a Valuation Period will be determined based on whether a day is a Trading Day for both the Common Stock and such Capital Stock or similar equity interest.

Subject to Section 4.04(g), for the purposes of this Section 4.04(c), rights, options or warrants distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (a “Trigger Event”): (1) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (2) are not exercisable; and (3) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 4.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 4.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 4.04(c). If any such rights, options or warrants, distributed prior to the first date of original issuance of the Initial Notes are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options 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 Ex-Dividend Date of such deemed distribution (in which case the original rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders). In addition, in the event of any distribution or deemed distribution of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 4.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants which shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any Holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or purchase price received by holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming each such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants which shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

For purposes of Section 4.04(a) hereof, Section 4.04(b) hereof and this Section 4.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies includes one or both of:

(A) a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 4.04(a) hereof also applies (the “Clause A Distribution”); or

(B) an issuance of rights, options or warrants entitling holders of the Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock to which Section 4.04(b) hereof also applies (the “Clause B Distribution”),

then (i) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a distribution to which this Section 4.04(c) applies (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required to be made under this Section 4.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall be made, (ii) the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 4.04(b) hereof with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause B Distribution and the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (B) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or the Clause B Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(b) hereof, and (iii) the Clause A Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution or the Clause B Distribution, as the case may be, except that, if determined by the Company, (A) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, if any, shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution, and (B) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution shall not be deemed to be “outstanding immediately prior to the Open of Business on such Ex-Dividend Date or such effective date” within the meaning of Section 4.04(a) hereof.

(d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	SP₀
	SP₀- C

where,

CR₀= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

CR₁= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀= the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

C = the amount in cash per share of Common Stock that the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock.

If “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP₀” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes it holds, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock and without having to convert its Notes, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the record date for such cash dividend or distribution. Any such increase made under this clause (d) shall become effective immediately after the Open of Business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock (other than an odd-lot tender offer), to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Offer Expiration Date”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀×	AC + (SP₁ × OS₁)
	OS₀× SP₁

where,

CR₀= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date;

CR₁= the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date;

AC = the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Company in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS₀= the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Offer Expiration Date (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

OS₁= the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Offer Expiration Date (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and

SP₁= the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date.

The increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 4.04(e) shall occur at the Close of Business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date; provided that (x) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Physical Settlement is applicable, if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer to, and including, such Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate and (y) in respect of any conversion of Notes for which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, for any Trading Day that falls within the relevant Observation Period for such conversion and within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Offer Expiration Date of such tender or exchange offer to, and including, such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day.

If the Company, or one of the Company’s Subsidiaries, is obligated to purchase the Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in this Section 4.04(e) but the Company, or such Subsidiary, is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have been effected.

(f) Special Settlement Provisions.

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date as described in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) hereof, and a Holder that has converted its Notes with a Conversion Date occurring on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related record date would be treated as the record holder of shares of Common Stock as of the related Conversion Date as described under Section 4.03 hereof based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the foregoing Conversion Rate adjustment provisions, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date will not be made for such converting Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the registered owner of the shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and participated in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, in the case of any conversion of a Note to which Combination Settlement applies, on any VWAP Trading Day during the Observation Period corresponding to the Conversion Date for such Note, shares of Common Stock are deliverable as part of the Daily Settlement Amount for such VWAP Trading Day, and

(i) the record date for any issuance, dividend or distribution, the effective date for any share split or combination or the Offer Expiration Date for any tender or exchange offer by the Company or its Subsidiaries that, in each case, would require an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to any of Section 4.04(a) through (e) occurs prior to the Company’s delivery of such shares of Common Stock to the converting Holder;

(ii) the applicable Conversion Rate for such VWAP Trading Day will not reflect such adjustment; and

(iii) the shares of Common Stock that the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder with respect to such VWAP Trading Day are not entitled to participate in the relevant event (because such shares were not held by such Holder on the related record date, effective date, Offer Expiration Date or otherwise),

then the Company will (i) in the case of any such issuance, dividend or distribution, deliver to the Holder of such Note, on the date on which such issuance, dividend or distribution is paid or made, the consideration that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock included in the Daily Settlement Amount for such VWAP Trading Day would be entitled to receive in respect of such issuance, dividend or distribution or (ii) in the case of any such share split or combination, tender or exchange offer, adjust the number of shares of Common Stock that the Company delivers to such Holder as part of the Daily Settlement Amount for such VWAP Trading Day in a manner that appropriately (as determined by the Company in consultation with a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm, which may be the Initial Purchaser, retained for this purpose) reflects the relevant transaction or event.

(g) Poison Pill. If a Holder converts a Note, to the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect, if Physical Settlement applies to such Note, on the Conversion Date applicable to such Note, and if Combination Settlement applies to such Note on any VWAP Trading Day in the Observation Period applicable to such Note, the Holder converting such Note will receive, in addition to any shares of Common Stock otherwise received in connection with such conversion on such Conversion Date or such VWAP Trading Day, as the case may be, the rights under the rights plan, unless prior to such Conversion Date or such VWAP Trading Day, as the case may be, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all holders of the Common Stock, Distributed Property as described in Section 4.04(c) hereof, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

(h) Deferral of Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company will not be required to adjust the Conversion Rate unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%); provided, however, that any such minor adjustments that are not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, and provided, further, that any such adjustment of less than one percent (1%) that has not been made shall be made upon the earliest occurrence of (v) the Effective Date for any Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change, (w) in the case of any Note to which Physical Settlement applies or to which Cash Settlement applies following a replacement of Common Stock by the Reference Property consisting solely of cash, prior to the Close of Business on the Conversion Date, (x) in the case of any Note to which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement applies (other than as described in the immediately preceding clause (w)), prior to the Open of Business on the first VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period and each subsequent VWAP Trading Day of the Observation Period, (y) on any date on which all deferred adjustments would result in an aggregate change to the Conversion Rate of at least one percent (1%) and (z) prior to the Close of Business on any other date on which the Conversion Rate is referred to for purpose of determining the consideration deliverable upon settlement of a Note. The provisions described in the preceding sentence shall be referred to as the “1% Exception.” In addition, the Company shall not account for such deferrals when determining whether any of the conditions to conversion have been satisfied or what number of shares of Common Stock a Holder would have held on a given day had it converted its Notes.

(i) Limitation on Adjustments. Except as stated in this Section 4.04, the Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities. If, however, the application of the formulas in Sections 4.04(a) through (e) hereof would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, then, except to the extent of any readjustment to the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made (other than as a result of a reverse share split or share combination).

In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted:

(i) on account of stock repurchases that are not tender or exchange offers referred to in Section 4.04(e) hereof, including structured or derivative transactions, or transactions pursuant to a stock repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors or otherwise;

(ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan;

(iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan, program or agreement of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(iv) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in Section 4.04(i)(iii) immediately above and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;

(v) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or

(vi) for accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, if any.

(j) For purposes of this Section 4.04, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

Section 4.05 Discretionary Adjustments.

(a) Discretionary Adjustments. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs or any function thereof over a span of multiple days (including during an Observation Period), the Company will make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the effective date, Ex-Dividend Date or Offer Expiration Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs or function thereof is to be calculated.

Section 4.06 Adjustment to Conversion Rate Upon Conversion in Connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

(a) Increase in the Conversion Rate. If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, then the Company shall, to the extent provided herein, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as described in this Section 4.06. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Conversion Notice is received by the Conversion Agent during the period from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date or, if such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is not also a Fundamental Change, the 35th Business Day immediately following the Effective Date for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”).

(b) Cash Mergers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the consideration paid to holders of the Common Stock in any Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of “Fundamental Change” is composed entirely of cash, then, for any conversion of Notes following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the payment and delivery obligations upon the conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price (determined in the manner described in Section 4.07(c)) for such Make-Whole Fundamental Change and shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the applicable Conversion Rate (including any adjustment as described in this Section 4.06) multiplied by such Stock Price. In such event, the Company’s conversion obligation will be determined and paid to Holders in cash on the second Business Day following the applicable Conversion Date. Otherwise, the Company will settle any conversion of the Notes following the Effective Date for a Make-Whole Fundamental Change in accordance with Section 4.03 hereof (but subject to Section 4.04 hereof).

(c) Determining the Number of Additional Shares. The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate will be increased for a Holder that converts its Notes in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change shall be determined by reference to the table attached as Schedule A hereto, based on the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change and the price (the “Stock Price”), as determined under the two immediately following sentences. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (2) of the definition of “Fundamental Change,” then the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five (5) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

(d) Interpolation and Limits. The exact Stock Price and Effective Date may not be set forth in the table in Schedule A, in which case:

(i) If the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table in Schedule A or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table in Schedule A, the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable.

(ii) If the Stock Price is greater than $7.0000 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A hereof), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.

(iii) If the Stock Price is less than $0.9067 per share (subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A hereof), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate be increased on account of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change to exceed 1,102.9006 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Conversion Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 4.04 hereof (the “Maximum Conversion Rate”).

(iv) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in Schedule A hereto shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of the Notes is otherwise required to be adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in such table in Schedule A shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Conversion Rate is required to be adjusted as set forth in Section 4.04.

(e) Notices. The Company shall notify the Holders of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change and issue a press release announcing such Effective Date no later than five (5) Business Days after such Effective Date.

Section 4.07 Effect of Recapitalization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.

(a) Share Exchange Events. In the case of:

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination);

(ii) any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company;

(iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries; or

(iv) any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Share Exchange Event” and any such stock, other securities or other property or assets, “Reference Property,” and the amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Share Exchange Event would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Share Exchange Event, a “Reference Property Unit”), then the Company or the successor or purchasing company, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that, at and after the effective time of such Share Exchange Event, the consideration due upon conversion of any Notes, and the conditions to any such conversion, will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in Article 4 were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units.

If a Share Exchange Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property shall be deemed to be the weighted average, per share of Common Stock, of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the Reference Property Unit for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the holders of Common Stock receive only cash in such Share Exchange Event, then for all conversions that occur after the effective date of such Share Exchange Event (A) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (as may be increased pursuant to Section 4.06), multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Share Exchange Event and (B) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders on the second Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date. For these purposes, the Daily VWAP or Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be the fair value of such Reference Property unit or portion thereof, as applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof).

Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide, to the extent the Reference Property is comprised, in whole or in part, of Common Equity, for anti-dilution and other adjustments that are as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 4. If the Reference Property in respect of any Share Exchange Event includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets of a Person other than the Company or, in the case of a transaction described in Article 9, the Successor Company, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of Notes, including the right of Holders to require the Company to purchase their Notes upon a Fundamental Change pursuant to Article 3, as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing.

(b) If the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 4.07, as promptly as practicable, the Company shall file with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly describing such Share Exchange Event, the composition of a Reference Property Unit for such Share Exchange Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent to such Share Exchange Event under this Indenture have been complied with. Any failure to deliver such Officer’s Certificate shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. The Company shall also issue a press release containing such information and shall make such press release available on its website.

(c) The Company shall not become a party to any Share Exchange Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 4.07. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Notes to convert its Notes as set forth in Section 4.01 and Section 4.02 prior to the effective date of such Share Exchange Event.

(d) The provisions of this Section 4.07 shall apply successively to successive Share Exchange Events.

Section 4.08 Certain Covenants.

(a) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) prior to the date on which the Company has satisfied the Share Reservation Condition, the Aggregate Share Cap and (ii) on and after the date on which the Company has satisfied the Share Reservation Condition, the Maximum Number of Underlying Shares.

(b) Certain other Covenants. The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon conversion of Notes shall be issued in book-entry form (or certificated form if applicable pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(iii)), shall be newly issued shares or treasury shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free from any tax, lien or charge (other than those created by the Holder or due to a change in registered owner). The Company shall list or cause to have quoted any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of Notes on each national securities exchange or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted.

Section 4.09 Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Notes to determine or calculate the Conversion Rate, to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or to confirm the accuracy of any such adjustment when made or the appropriateness of the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion 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 other securities or property that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Notes; and the Trustee and the Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Notes for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article 4. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including without limitation its right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity as Conversion Agent.

Section 4.10 Notice of Adjustment to the Trustee. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly (i) file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment; provided that unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect and (ii) deliver written notice to the Holders, at his or her last address appearing on the Register provided for in Section 2.06 of this Indenture, stating that such adjustment has become effective and the Conversion Rate or conversion privilege as adjusted. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality, effectiveness or validity of any such adjustment and shall not be an Event of Default under this Indenture.

Section 4.11 Notice to Holders.

(a) Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. The Company shall deliver written notices of the events specified below at the times specified below and containing the information specified below unless, in each case (i) pursuant to this Indenture, the Company is already required to deliver notice of such event containing at least the information specified below at an earlier time or (ii) the Company, at the time it is required to deliver a notice, does not have knowledge of all of the information required to be included in such notice, in which case, the Company shall (A) deliver notice at such time containing only the information that it has knowledge of at such time (if it has knowledge of any such information at such time), and (B) promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any such information not already included in a notice delivered by the Company, deliver notice to each Holder containing such information. In each case, the failure by the Company to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such event.

(i) Issuances, Distributions, and Dividends and Distributions. If the Company (A) announces any issuance of any rights, options or warrants that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(b) hereof; (B) authorizes any distribution that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(c) hereof (including any separation of rights from the Common Stock described in Section 4.04(g) hereof); or (C) announces any dividend or distribution that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(d) hereof, then the Company shall deliver to the Holders, as promptly as practicable after the holders of the Common Stock are notified of such event, notice describing such issuance, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, and stating the expected Ex-Dividend Date and record date for such issuance, dividend or distribution, as the case may be. In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Holders written notice if the consideration included in such issuance, dividend or distribution, or the Ex-Dividend Date or record date of such issuance, dividend or distribution, as the case may be, changes.

(ii) Tender and Exchange Offers. If the Company announces any tender or exchange offer that could require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 4.04(e) hereof, the Company shall deliver to the Holders on the day it announces such tender or exchange offer, and, if the Company is required to file with the Commission a Schedule TO in connection with such tender or exchange offer, an additional written notice (i) when the Company first files such Schedule TO, which notice shall include the address at which such Schedule TO is available on the Commission’s EDGAR system (or any successor thereto), and (ii) whenever the Company files an amendment to such Schedule TO, which notice shall include the address at which such amendment is available on the Commission’s EDGAR system (or any successor thereto).

(iii) [Reserved].

(iv) Dissolutions, Liquidations and Winding-Ups. If there is a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company, the Company shall deliver notice to the Holders at promptly as possible, but in any event prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, is expected to become effective or occur, and (ii) the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, as the case may be, which notice shall state the expected effective date and record date for such event, as applicable, and the amount and kind of property that a holder of one share of the Common Stock is expected to be entitled, or may elect, to receive in such event. The Company shall deliver an additional written notice to Holders, as promptly as practicable, whenever the expected effective date or record date, as applicable, or the amount and kind of property that a holder of one share of the Common Stock is expected to be entitled to receive in such event, changes.

Section 4.12 Exchange in Lieu of Conversion.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 4, when a Holder surrenders a Note for conversion, the Company may, at its election, direct the Conversion Agent to surrender, on or prior to the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the first VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date), such Notes to a financial institution designated by the Company for exchange in lieu of conversion. In order to accept any Notes surrendered for conversion, the designated financial institution must agree to pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, in exchange for such Notes, all of the cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof due upon conversion, all in accordance with Section 4.02. By the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the first VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, by the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date), the Company shall notify the Holder surrendering Notes for conversion that the Company has directed the designated financial institution to make an exchange in lieu of conversion.

(b) If the designated financial institution accepts any such Notes, it will pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof due upon conversion to the Conversion Agent, and the Conversion Agent shall pay and/or deliver such cash, shares of Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) or combination thereof to such Holder on the second Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date). Any Notes exchanged by the designated financial institution will remain outstanding. If the designated financial institution agrees to accept any Notes for exchange but does not timely pay and/or deliver the related cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof, as the case may be, or if such designated financial institution does not accept the Notes for exchange, the Company shall convert the Notes and pay and/or deliver, as the case may be, the cash, shares or Common Stock or a combination thereof due upon conversion on the second Business Day immediately following the last VWAP Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period (or, if the Company has elected Physical Settlement, on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date) as set forth in Section 4.02. The Company’s designation of a financial institution to which the Notes may be submitted for exchange does not require the financial institution to accept any Notes (unless the financial institution has separately made an agreement with the Company to do so). The Company may, but will not be obligated to, enter into a separate agreement with any designated financial institution that would compensate it for any such transaction.

The Company may also from time to time designate as co-registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the continental United States for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable.

The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent, and its Corporate Trust Office, which shall be in the continental United States, shall be considered as one such office or agency of the Company for each of the aforesaid purposes. The Company may, however, change the Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to the Holders. The Company or its Affiliates may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

With respect to any Global Note, the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall be the place of payment where such Global Note may be presented or surrendered for payment or conversion or for registration of transfer or exchange, or where successor Notes may be delivered in exchange therefor; provided, however, that any such payment, conversion, presentation, surrender or delivery effected pursuant to the Applicable Procedures for such Global Note shall be deemed to have been effected at the place of payment for such Global Note in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 5.03 Provisions as to Paying Agent.

(a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 5.03:

(i) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, the Notes held in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Notes;

(ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and

(iii) that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust.

The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal, accrued and unpaid interest, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action, provided that, if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.

(b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such amount so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any such payment when the same shall become due and payable.

(c) Anything in this Section 5.03 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 5.04, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

(d) Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, accrued and unpaid interest, or any Fundamental Change Purchase Price has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that before the Trustee or such Paying Agent are required to make any such repayment, the Company shall cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 calendar days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company.

Section 5.04 Reports.

(a) The Company will file with the Trustee, within 15 calendar days after it is required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the quarterly and annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports, if any, that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (excluding any information, documents or reports, or portions thereof, subject to confidential treatment and any correspondence with the Commission). Any such report, information or document that the Company files with the Commission through the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) will be deemed to be delivered to the Trustee for the purposes of this Section 5.04 at the time of such filing through the EDGAR system (or such successor thereto); provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine whether such filings have been made.

(b) Delivery of any such reports, information and documents to the Trustee shall be for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such reports, information and documents shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate).

(c) At any time the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will, so long as any of the Notes or the shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Notes will, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to the Trustee and will, upon written request, provide to any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or such shares of Common Stock the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or such shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Company will take such further action as any Holder or beneficial owner of such Notes or such shares of Common Stock may reasonably request from time to time to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to resell such Notes or such shares of Common Stock in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible, and in any event within 30 calendar days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details of such Default or Event of Default, its status and the action that the Company proposes to take with respect thereto. Such Officer’s Certificate shall also comply with any additional requirements set forth in Section 5.07 hereof. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or event of default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof.

Section 5.06 Additional Interest Notice. If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 5.08 hereof or Section 6.03 hereof, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate, prior to the Regular Record Date for each applicable Interest Payment Date, to that effect stating (a) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (b) the date on which such interest is payable. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, Additional Interest shall not be payable pursuant to ‎Section 5.08 in respect of the Affiliate Notes.

Section 5.07 Compliance Certificate and Opinions of Counsel.

(b) The Company will use reasonable efforts to cause the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes), to bear an unrestricted CUSIP number no later than the 375th day after the Last Original Issuance Date of the Notes, subject to DTC procedures. If, and for so long as, the Restricted Notes Legend has not been removed (or deemed removed) from the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes), the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) are not assigned (or deemed assigned) an unrestricted CUSIP number or the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) are not otherwise Freely Tradable by Holders other than “affiliates” (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company or Holders that were “affiliates” (within the meaning of Rule 144) of the Company during the 90 days immediately preceding the date of the proposed transfer (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes) as of the 375th day after the Last Original Issuance Date, the Company will pay Additional Interest on the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes). Additional Interest will accrue on the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) then Outstanding until such Restricted Notes Legend is removed (or deemed removed), the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) are assigned (or deemed assigned) an unrestricted CUSIP number and the Notes (other than the Affiliate Notes) are Freely Tradable.

(c) Such Additional Interest that is payable shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes and, subject to 5.08(d), will be in addition to any Additional Interest that may accrue as described under Section 6.03.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any Additional Interest that may accrue as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file any document or report that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable extension or grace periods thereunder, including pursuant to Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act, and other than reports on Form 8-K), as described in this Section 5.08, together with any interest that may accrue as described in Section 6.03, accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 5.08 shall not apply to the Affiliate Notes and Additional Interest shall not accrue on the Affiliate Notes as set forth in this Section 5.08.

Section 5.09 Corporate Existence. Subject to Article 9, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if, in the judgment of the Company, the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company.

Section 5.10 Restriction on Resales. Any Note or Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exchange of a Note that is repurchased or owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company (or any Person who was an Affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months preceding) may not be resold by the Company or any such Affiliate (or any such Person, as the case may be) unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Note or Common Stock, as the case may be, no longer being a “restricted security” (as defined in Rule 144).

Section 6.03 Additional Interest.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 6.02 hereof, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default under Section 6.01(f) relating to the Company’s failure to comply with Section 5.04(a) hereof (such Event of Default, a “Reporting Event of Default”), will (i) for the first 90 days after the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default (beginning on, and including, the date on which such Reporting Event of Default first occurs) consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes then Outstanding for each day during such 90-day period on which such Event of Default is continuing and (ii) for the period from, and including, the 91st day after the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default to, and including the 360th day after the occurrence of such Reporting Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes equal to 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes Outstanding for each day during such additional 270-day period on which such Reporting Event of Default is continuing (subject to 6.03(d), in addition to any Additional Interest that may accrue as described under Section 5.08).

(b) On the 361st day after the date on which the Reporting Event of Default occurred (if such Reporting Event of Default has not been cured or waived prior to such 361st day), the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02 hereof.

(c) In order to elect to pay the Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of a Reporting Event of Default, the Company must notify all Holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election prior to the beginning of such 360-day period. Upon the Company’s failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02 hereof. In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following a Reporting Event of Default or the Company elects to pay Additional Interest but does not pay the Additional Interest when due, the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02 hereof. Except as provided in the Section 6.03(d) below, nothing in this Section 6.03 shall affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default.

(d) Such Additional Interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes and will be in addition to any Additional Interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 5.08. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Additional Interest payable pursuant to this Section 6.03 and any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 5.08 as a result of the Company’s failure to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than reports on Form 8-K) accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest.

Section 6.04 Control by Majority. At any time, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct in writing the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to the Trustee’s duties under Article 12 hereof, that the Trustee determines to be unduly prejudicial to the rights of a Holder or to the Trustee, or that would potentially involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity or security satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to the Trustee that may result from the Trustee’s instituting such proceeding as the Trustee. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee will be entitled to indemnification or security satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

Section 6.05 Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 6.06 hereof, no Holder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes unless:

(a) such Holder has previously delivered to the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) the Holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes deliver to the Trustee a written request that the Trustee pursue a remedy with respect to such Event of Default;

(c) such Holder or Holders have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or other expense of compliance with such written request;

(d) the Trustee has not complied with such written request within 60 days after receipt of such written request and offer of indemnity or security; and

(e) during such 60-day period, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes did not deliver to the Trustee a direction inconsistent with such written request.

Section 6.06 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment and to Convert. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of any Holder to receive payment of the principal of, interest on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, on or after the respective due date, and to convert its Notes and receive the payment or delivery of cash, shares of Common Stock or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, if any, as the case may be, due with respect to such Notes in accordance with Article 4 hereof, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment or conversion rights, will not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder and will not be subject to the requirements of Section 6.05 hereof.

Section 6.07 Collection of Indebtedness; Suit for Enforcement by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a), 6.01(b) or 6.01(c) hereof occurs and is continuing, the Trustee is authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount of principal of, interest on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, and the amount of cash, the number of shares of Common Stock or the combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, if any, as the case may be, due upon the conversion of, the Notes, as the case may be, and such further amount as is sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, as well as any other amounts that may be due under Section 10.07 hereof.

Section 6.08 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the compensation, and reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and, unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, will be entitled to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that the Trustee consents to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 10.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, will be denied for any reason, payment of the same will be secured by a lien on, and is paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained will be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to, or to accept or to adopt on behalf of any Holder, any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

Section 6.10 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 6.11 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.09 hereof, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 6.12 Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient by the Trustee (subject to the limitations contained in this Indenture) or by the Holders, as the case may be.

Section 6.13 Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it will pay out the money in the following order:

FIRST: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 10.07 hereof, including payment of all compensation, expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection;

THIRD: the balance, if any, to the Company or to such other party as a court of competent jurisdiction directs.

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Holders pursuant to this Section 6.13. If the Trustee so fixes a record date and a payment date, at least 15 calendar days prior to such record date, the Trustee will deliver to each Holder a written notice, which notice will state such record date, such payment date and the amount of such payment.

Section 6.14 Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of a Note, shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, Fundamental Change Purchase Price for, any Note on or after the due date expressed or provided for in this Indenture or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 hereof.

Section 6.15 Waiver of Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants that, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will instead suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Persons entitled to consent to any indenture supplemental hereto. If a record date is fixed, the Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be entitled to consent to such supplemental indenture, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such consent shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having been obtained prior to the date which is 90 calendar days after such record date, any such consent previously given shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect.

For purposes of this Section 9.01, the conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to another Person.

Section 9.02 Successor Corporation to be Substituted.

All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 9 may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture.

Section 9.03 Opinion of Counsel to be Given to Trustee. In the case of any such amalgamation, merger, consolidation, conveyance, transfer or lease the Trustee shall receive an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that any such amalgamation, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Indenture.

In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) and the Trustee has notice of such fact, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care in their exercise, as a prudent person would use in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

Section 10.05 Trustee, Paying Agents, Exchange Agents or Registrar May Own Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent or Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar.

Section 10.06 Monies to be Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.07, all monies and properties received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as may be agreed in writing from time to time by the Company and the Trustee.

Section 10.07 Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to from time to time in writing between the Company and the Trustee, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or willful misconduct.

The Company also covenants to indemnify the Trustee (or any officer, director or employee of the Trustee), in any capacity under this Indenture and its agents and any Authenticating Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any and all loss, liability, claim or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or such officers, directors, employees and agent or Authenticating Agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, a Holder or any other Person) of liability in the premises. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have one firm of separate counsel except in the event local counsel shall be required and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel and local counsel, as applicable. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The obligations of the Company under this Section 10.07 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The obligation of the Company under this Section shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

When the Trustee and its agents and any Authenticating Agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) and 6.01(j) with respect to the Company occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

Section 10.08 Officer’s Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee.

Section 10.09 [Reserved].

Section 10.10 Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 (or if such Person is a member of a bank holding company system, its bank holding company shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000). If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 10.10 the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.10, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

Section 10.11 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

(a) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and to the Holders of Notes. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment thirty (30) days after the providing of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders, petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or, if any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.14, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.

(b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur:

(i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.10 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder; or

(ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation;

then, in any such case, the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.14, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note or Notes for at least six (6) months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee; provided, however, that if no successor Trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted appointment thirty (30) days after either the Company or the Holders has removed the Trustee, the Trustee so removed may petition at the Company’s expense any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee which shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless, within ten (10) days after notice to the Company of such nomination, the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, or if such Trustee so removed or any Holder fails to act, the Company, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as provided in Section 10.11(a), may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.

(d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 10.11 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 10.12.

Section 10.12 Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 10.11 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amount then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.07, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property and funds held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.07.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 10.12 unless, at the time of such acceptance, such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 10.10.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 10.12, the Company (or the former trustee, at the written direction of the Company) shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders of Notes at their addresses as they shall appear on the Register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.

Section 10.13 Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or exchanged or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, exchange or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including any trust created by this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided that in the case of any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, such corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 10.10.

In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or Authenticating Agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force that is provided in the Notes or in this Indenture; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, exchange or consolidation.

Section 10.14 [Reserved].

Section 10.15 Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three (3) Business Days after the date any officer of the Company actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date) unless prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of an omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

This Indenture and the Notes, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or the Notes, will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any Federal or State court located in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, New York in any suit, action or proceeding based on or arising out of or relating to this Indenture or any Notes and irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in any such court. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in an inconvenient forum. The Company agrees that final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company, and may be enforced in any courts to the jurisdiction of which the Company is subject by a suit upon such judgment, provided that service of process is effected upon the Company in the manner specified herein or as otherwise permitted by law.

Section 12.03 No Note Interest Created. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall be construed to constitute a security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code or similar legislation, as now or hereafter enacted and in effect, in any jurisdiction.

Section 12.04 Voting. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, by any of its Subsidiaries or by any Person or entity directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver or other action that is to be made by a requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes, only such Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall be disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for such purposes if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee its right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, one of its Subsidiaries or a Person or entity directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. The Affiliate Notes, for so long as they are held by Affiliates of the Company, will be disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding for the purposes of determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture.

Section 12.06 Calculations. Except as otherwise provided in this Indenture, the Company shall be responsible for making all calculations called for under the Indenture and the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Last Reported Sale Prices, Trading Prices and Daily VWAPs of the Common Stock, the Daily Share Cap, accrued interest payable on the Notes and the Conversion Rate. The Company shall make all these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on Holders. The Company shall provide a schedule of its calculations to each of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent and the Conversion Agent, and each of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent and the Conversion Agent is entitled to rely conclusively upon the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent verification. The Trustee shall forward the Company’s calculations to any Holders upon the written request of that Holder. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible, or assume any liability, for any calculations under this Indenture or the Notes.

Whenever the Company is required to calculate or make adjustments to the Conversion Rate, the Company will do so to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock, rounding any additional decimal places up or down in a commercially reasonable manner.

(b) The Company or the Trustee, by notice given to the other in the manner provided in this Section 12.08, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.

(c) Whenever the Company is required to deliver notice to the Holders, the Company will, by the date it is required to deliver such notice to the Holders, deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Conversion Agent. Each notice to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Conversion Agent shall be sufficiently given if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid to the address most recently sent by the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or the Conversion Agent, as the case may be, to the Company.

(d) Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by the Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

(e) Where this Indenture provides for notice of any event to a Holder of a Global Note, such notice shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for such Note (or its designee), pursuant to its Applicable Procedures, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice.

No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes, the Indenture or any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes.

Section 12.10 Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company or any other withholding agent is permitted to withhold, or backup withhold, from interest payments and payments upon conversion or maturity of the Notes, any amounts the Company or other withholding agent is required to withhold or backup withhold by law. If the Company or other withholding agent pays withholding taxes or backup withholding on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner, the Company or other withholding agent may, at its option, set off any such payment against payments of cash and Common Stock payable on the Notes or proceeds paid or credited to the Holder or beneficial owner.

Section 12.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 12.12 U.S.A. Patriot Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the U.S.A. Patriot Act.

Section 12.13 Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, epidemics or pandemics, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.
