22



Agreement shall bear its own expenses in connection with the sale of the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares to the Buyers.
(h)Disclosure of Transactions and Other Material Information.
(i) Disclosure of Transaction. On or before 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the first Business Day after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall (1) issue a press release (the “Press Release”) reasonably acceptable to the Buyers disclosing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents and (2) file a Current Report on Form 8-K describing all the material terms of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents in the form required by the Exchange Act and attaching all the material Transaction Documents (including this Agreement, the Indenture, the form of Convertible Note, the form of the Registration Rights Agreement and the Certificate of Designations) (including all attachments, the “8-K Filing”). From and after the filing of the 8-K Filing, the Company shall have disclosed all material, non-public information (if any) provided to any of the Buyers by the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. In addition, effective upon the filing of the 8-K Filing, the Company acknowledges and agrees that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective representatives, on the one hand, and any of the Buyers or any of their affiliates, on the other hand, shall terminate, and no Buyer shall have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade in the securities of, the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
(ii) Limitations on Disclosure. The Company shall not, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries and each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents not to, provide any unaffiliated Buyer with any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of such Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). In the event of a breach of any of the foregoing covenants, or any of the covenants or agreements contained in any Transaction Document, by the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective representatives (as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Buyer), in addition to any other remedy provided herein or in the Transaction Documents, such Buyer shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable, without the prior approval by the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective representatives. No Buyer shall have any liability to the Company, any of its subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective representatives or stockholders, for any such disclosure. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Company, its subsidiaries nor any Buyer shall issue any press releases or any other public statements with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, the Company shall be entitled, without the prior approval of any Buyer, to make the Press Release and any press release or other public disclosure with respect to such transactions (i) in substantial conformity with the 8-K Filing and (ii) as is required by applicable law and regulations (provided that in the case of clause (i) each Buyer shall be consulted by the Company in connection with any such press release or other public
23



disclosure prior to its release). Without the prior written consent of the applicable Buyer (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion), the Company shall not (and shall cause each of its subsidiaries and affiliates to not) disclose the name of such Buyer in any filing, announcement, release or otherwise.
(i)Reservation of Shares.
(i) So long as any of the Convertible Notes or any Series 1 Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, a number of shares of Common Stock no less than the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of all then outstanding Convertible Notes plus the maximum number of Preferred Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of all then outstanding Series 1 Preferred Stock (collectively, the “Required Common Stock Reserve Amount”). If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Common Stock Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including calling a special meeting of shareholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents and obtaining stockholder approval (if required) of an increase in such authorized number of shares.
(ii) So long as any of the Convertible Notes remain outstanding, the Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, a number of shares of Preferred Stock no less than the maximum number of Conversion Shares issuable upon conversion of all then outstanding Convertible Notes as reasonably estimated for any Excess Convertible Notes, as defined below (the “Required Preferred Stock Reserve Amount”). If at any time the number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized and reserved for issuance is not sufficient to meet the Required Preferred Stock Reserve Amount, the Company will promptly take all corporate action necessary to authorize and reserve a sufficient number of shares, including calling a special meeting of shareholders to authorize additional shares to meet the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Transaction Documents and obtaining stockholder approval (if required) of an increase in such authorized number of shares.
(j)Passive Foreign Investment Company. The Company shall conduct its business in such a manner as will ensure that the Company will not be deemed to constitute a passive foreign investment company within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code.

(l)General Solicitation. None of the Company, any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act) or any person acting on behalf of the Guarantor or such affiliate will solicit any offer to buy or offer or sell the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Regulation D, including (i) any advertisement, article, notice
24



or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine or similar medium or broadcast over television or radio and (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any general solicitation or general advertising.
(m)Integration. None of the Company, any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 501(b) under the Securities Act), or any person acting on behalf of the Company or such affiliate will sell, offer for sale, or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) which will be integrated with the offer or sale of the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares in a manner which would require the registration of the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares under the Securities Act or require shareholder approval under the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, and the Company will take all action that is appropriate or necessary to assure that its offerings of other securities will not be integrated for purposes of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, with the issuance of Securities contemplated hereby.
5.ISSUANCE OF SERIES 1 PREFERRED STOCK.
(a)If (i) the Company at any time exercises an Optional Redemption (as defined in the Indenture) in whole or in part of the Convertible Notes beneficially owned by Highbridge or any of its affiliates (such Convertible Notes, the “Redeemed Convertible Notes”) and (ii) Highbridge or any of its affiliates is unable to convert any of the Redeemed Convertible Notes as a result of the application of the Beneficial Ownership Limitations (as defined in the Indenture) (such portion that cannot be converted, the “Excess Convertible Notes”), then at the request of Highbridge or any of its affiliates, the Company will exchange with Highbridge and any of its affiliates any or all of the Excess Convertible Notes for shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock having the rights, preferences and privileges as set forth in the Certificate of Designations (the “Certificate of Designations”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (which shall be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State only if, and when, the Company exercises an Optional Redemption and the conversion of the Redeemed Convertible Notes would create any Excess Convertible Notes) (such shares of preferred stock, the “Series 1 Preferred Stock”) and convertible into an aggregate number of shares of Preferred Conversion Shares equal to the aggregate number of Conversion Shares underlying the Excess Convertible Notes exchanged (including, if applicable, any Additional Shares (as defined in the Indenture)).
(b)The Company will deliver any Series 1 Preferred Stock to be issued in such exchange, and the beneficial owner of the Excess Convertible Notes to be exchanged will deliver such Excess Convertible Notes via withdrawal request through the Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian settlement system of DTC (or other applicable procedures of the person then acting as the Depository (as defined in the Indenture) of the Convertible Notes), in each case free and clear of any Liens, within two Business Days following such request (or at such other time as the Company and such beneficial owner shall mutually agree). No shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock issued pursuant to this Section 5 will have associated with them any form of legend restricting further transfer.
25



(c)The Company represents, warrants and covenants that, at the time of the issuance of any Series 1 Preferred Stock or any Preferred Conversion Shares:
(i) When issued, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free from all preemptive or similar rights or Liens with respect to the issuance thereof.
(ii) The offer and sale of the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares, and the terms of the Certificate of Designations and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, will not (A) result in a violation of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws, (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) in any respect under, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party, or (iii) result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree (including foreign, federal and state laws, rules and regulations and the rules and regulations of the Principal Market) applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or by which any property or asset of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is bound or affected, except in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, for such breaches, violations or conflicts as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) The Company will not be required to obtain any consent or approval from, authorization or order of, or make any filing or registration with (other than such consents, approvals, authorizations, filings or registrations that have been either obtained), any Governmental Entity or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency or any other person in order for it to offer or sell the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares and perform its obligations under the Certificate of Designations in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof.
(iv) The offer and issuance of the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) thereof. When issued, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares will not constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
(v) None of the Company, its subsidiaries or any of their affiliates, nor any person acting on their behalf will, directly or indirectly, make or solicit any offers or sales of any security or taken any actions that would require registration of the issuance of any of the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares under the Securities Act, whether through integration with prior offerings or otherwise, or cause the offer and issuance of the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares to require approval of stockholders of the Company in connection with the offering and issuance of the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares for purposes of the Securities Act or under any applicable stockholder approval provisions, including under the rules and regulations of any exchange or automated quotation system on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated for quotation (including the Principal Market).
26



(d)The parties intend that this Section 5 constitute a plan of reorganization for U.S. federal tax purposes and that the exchange contemplated in this Section 5 constitute a recapitalization pursuant to section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, and the parties agree to treat the transaction as such for all U.S. federal tax purposes, including the filing with respect to all U.S. federal tax filings relevant thereto.
(e)If the Indenture is amended, modified or waived in any respect that would frustrate the intent of this Section 5, this Section 5 and the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Certificate of Designations shall automatically be adjusted to as near as possible accomplish the original intent of this Section 5. The Company shall not issue any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock other than pursuant to this Section 5.
6.CONDITIONS TO THE COMPANY’S AND THE GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS.

Nothing contained in this Section 8 shall be deemed to release any party from any liability for any breach by such party of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or to impair the right of any party to compel specific performance by any other party of its obligations under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents.
9.MISCELLANEOUS.
(a)Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Jury Trial. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of New York. The Company and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection with any of the Transaction Documents (other than the
29



Certificate of Designations, in which case such jurisdiction shall not be exclusive) or with any transaction contemplated thereby, and hereby irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or operate to preclude any Buyer from bringing suit or taking other legal action against the Company in any other jurisdiction to collect on the Company’s obligations to such Buyer or to enforce a judgment or other court ruling in favor of such Buyer. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF ANY TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.
(b)Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
(c)Headings; Gender; Interpretation. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found. As used in this Agreement, (i) “subsidiary” means the Guarantor, and any other person in which the Company, directly or indirectly, possesses the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise and (ii) “person” means any individual, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, corporation, trust, unincorporated organization, other entity or Governmental Entity (or any department or agency thereof).
(d)Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or otherwise determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the provision that would otherwise be prohibited, invalid or unenforceable shall be deemed amended to apply to the broadest extent that it would be valid and enforceable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of
30



such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter hereof and the prohibited nature, invalidity or unenforceability of the provision(s) in question does not substantially impair the respective expectations or reciprocal obligations of the parties or the practical realization of the benefits that would otherwise be conferred upon the parties. The parties will endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with a valid provision(s), the effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited, invalid or unenforceable provision(s).
(e)Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, its subsidiaries, their affiliates and persons acting on their behalf, including any transactions by any Buyer with respect to the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares, and the other matters contained herein and therein, and this Agreement, the Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein contain the entire understanding of the parties solely with respect to the matters covered herein and therein. Except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company, the Guarantor nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. For clarification purposes, the Recitals are part of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company, the Guarantor and the Required Holders, and any amendment to any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable; provided that nothing in Section 5 may be amended without the consent of Highbridge; provided further that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (A) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares then outstanding or (B) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Holders may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Securities, as applicable, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares then outstanding (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Buyer without such Buyer’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Buyer’s sole discretion). No consideration (other than reimbursement of legal fees) shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents and all holders of the Convertible Notes. As a material inducement for each Buyer to enter into this Agreement, the Guarantor and the Company expressly acknowledge and agree that (x) no due diligence or other investigation or inquiry conducted by a Buyer, any of its advisors or any of its representatives shall affect such
31



Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Guarantor’s or the Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document and (y) unless a provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document is expressly preceded by the phrase “as described in the SEC Documents,” nothing contained in any of the SEC Documents shall affect such Buyer’s right to rely on, or shall modify or qualify in any manner or be an exception to any of, the Guarantor’s or Company’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or any Transaction Document. “Required Holders” means (I) prior to the Closing Date, each Buyer entitled to purchase Convertible Notes at the Closing and (II) on or after the Closing Date, holders of a majority of the combined Conversion Shares and Preferred Conversion Shares as of such time (excluding any Conversion Shares, Preferred Conversion Shares, Convertible Notes or Series 1 Preferred Stock held by the Company or any of its subsidiaries as of such time) issued or issuable hereunder or pursuant to the Convertible Notes or the Series 1 Preferred Stock then outstanding.
(f)Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) when sent by electronic mail (provided that such sent email is kept on file (whether electronically or otherwise) by the sending party and the sending party does not receive an automatically generated message from the recipient’s email server that such e-mail could not be delivered to such recipient); or (iii) one (1) Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service with next day delivery specified, in each case, properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

(k)Indemnification.
(i) In consideration of each Buyer’s execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities and (if applicable) the Series 1 Preferred Stock and the Preferred Conversion Shares, and in addition to all of the Company’s and the Guarantor’s other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company and the Guarantor shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and each holder of any Securities and all of their shareholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors, each person who controls such Buyer (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers and employees of such controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or any subsidiary in any of the Transaction Documents, (ii) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or any subsidiary contained in any of the Transaction Documents, or (iii) any cause of action, suit, proceeding or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought

on behalf of the Company or any subsidiary) or which otherwise involves such Indemnitee that arises out of or results from the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Transaction Documents. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company or the Guarantor may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company and the Guarantor shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.
(ii) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnitee under this Section 9(k) of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any governmental action or proceeding) involving an Indemnified Liability, such Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9(k), deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnitee; provided, however, that an Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party if: (i) the indemnifying party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Indemnified Liability and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee in any such Indemnified Liability; or (iii) such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee and the indemnifying party (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party), provided further that in the case of clause (iii) above, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the actual reasonable and documented fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for such Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnitee which relates to such Indemnified Liability. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnitee reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which (i) does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnitee of a release from all liability in respect to such Indemnified Liability, (ii) includes as a term thereof any remedy other than the payment of monetary damages for which the indemnifying person will indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9(k) or (iii) includes any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnitee. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a
34



reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnitee under this Section 9(k), except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action. The indemnification required by this Section 9(k) shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Liabilities are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnitees against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.
(l)Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. No specific representation or warranty shall limit the generality or applicability of a more general representation or warranty. Each and every reference to share prices, Conversion Shares, Preferred Conversion Shares, Series 1 Preferred Stock and any other numbers in this Agreement (including any exhibit to this Agreement) that relate to the Conversion Shares or the Preferred Conversion Shares shall be automatically adjusted for any share splits, share dividends, share combinations, recapitalizations or other similar transactions that occur with respect to the Common Stock, Conversion Shares or Preferred Conversion Shares after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall constitute a representation or warranty against, or a prohibition of, any actions with respect to the borrowing of, arrangement to borrow, identification of the availability of, and/or securing of, securities of the Company in order for such Buyer (or its broker or other financial representative) to effect short sales or similar transactions in the future.
(m)Remedies. Each Buyer and in the event of assignment by Buyer of its rights and obligations hereunder, each holder of Securities, shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company and the Guarantor recognize that in the event that it or any subsidiary fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its or such subsidiary’s (as the case may be) obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law would be inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company and the Guarantor therefore agree that the Buyers shall be entitled to specific performance and/or temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. The remedies provided in this Agreement and the Transaction Documents shall be cumulative and in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement and the Transaction Documents, at law or in equity (including a decree of specific performance and/or other injunctive relief).
35



(n)Independent Nature of Buyers’ Obligations and Rights. The obligations of each Buyer under the Transaction Documents are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as, and the Company and the Guarantor acknowledge that the Buyers do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity, and the Company and the Guarantor shall not assert any such claim with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any matters, and the Company and the Guarantor acknowledge that the Buyers are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company and the Guarantor shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. The decision of each Buyer to purchase Securities pursuant to the Transaction Documents has been made by such Buyer independently of any other Buyer. Each Buyer acknowledges that no other Buyer has acted as agent for such Buyer in connection with such Buyer making its investment hereunder and that no other Buyer will be acting as agent of such Buyer in connection with monitoring such Buyer’s investment in the Securities, the Series 1 Preferred Stock or the Preferred Conversion Shares or enforcing its rights under the Transaction Documents. The Company, the Guarantor and each Buyer confirms that each Buyer has independently participated with the Company and its subsidiaries in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company, the Guarantor and a Buyer, solely, and not between the Company, the Guarantor and the Buyers collectively and not between and among the Buyers.

i.The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 days after the receipt by the Trustee of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an

17



earlier date), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall give notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Note Register, or by electronic means to the Depositary in the case of Global Notes, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been so given, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii) of this Section 2.03(c).
ii.The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after written notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.
Section 2.04 Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual, facsimile, .pdf attachment or other electronically transmitted signature of its Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary or any of its Executive or Senior Vice Presidents.

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, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes, without any further action by the Company hereunder, other than delivery of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 17.05.
Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth on the Form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto, executed manually by an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as provided by Section 17.10), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent)

18



upon any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
In case any Officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, or disposed of by the Company, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer of the Company; and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Company by such Persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such Person was not such an Officer.
Section 2.05 Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer; Depositary. (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note 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. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable period of time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note to the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.05, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.
Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.
All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, redemption, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing. Physical Notes must be surrendered to the Trustee prior to any transfer or exchange.
No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or

19



similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer.
None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion, (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) any Notes selected for redemption in accordance with Article 16, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.
All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Indenture 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.
(b) To the extent, and for so long as, any Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law, subject to Section 2.05(c)(iii) all Notes (other than Affiliate Notes, if any, which shall initially issued as Physical Notes) may be represented by one or more Notes in global form (each, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary. Each Global Note shall bear the legend required on a Global Note set forth in Exhibit A hereto. The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in a Global Note that does not involve the issuance of a Physical Note shall be effected through the Depositary (but not the Trustee or the Custodian) in accordance with this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.
(c) Every Note that bears or is required under this Section 2.05(c) to bear the legend set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes that is required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (including the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.
i.Until the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the last date of original issuance of the Notes, or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule 144 or any successor provision thereto, and (2) such later date, if any, as may be required by applicable law, any certificate evidencing such Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof, which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Notes have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act

PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH CLAUSE (E) ABOVE, THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER FOR THE COMPANY TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.
NO AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE COMPANY OR PERSON THAT HAS BEEN AN AFFILIATE (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OF THE COMPANY DURING THE THREE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING MONTHS MAY OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN UNLESS PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT IN A TRANSACTION THAT RESULTS IN SUCH SECURITY OR COMMON STOCK, AS THE CASE MAY BE, NO LONGER BEING A “RESTRICTED SECURITY” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT).
No transfer of any Affiliate Note will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable box on the Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked.
Each Affiliate Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee):

THIS SECURITY IS AN “AFFILIATE NOTE” AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE (AS DEFINED HEREIN). AS SUCH, THIS SECURITY IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF THAT CERTAIN SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [_], 2021, AMONG THE COMPANY, NAVINET, INC., AND INITIAL HOLDERS PARTY THERETO (AND THEIR TRANSFEREES).

iii.Any Note (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) (A) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms, (B) that has been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become effective or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or (C) that has been sold pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, may, upon surrender of such Note for exchange to the Note Registrar in

23



accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05, be exchanged for a new Note or Notes as a Physical Note or a Global Note, in either case, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall be entitled to instruct the Custodian in writing to so surrender any Global Note as to which any of the conditions set forth in clause (A) through (E) of Section 2.05(c)(i), and, upon such instruction, the Custodian shall so surrender such Global Note for exchange; and any new Global Note so exchanged therefor shall not bear the restrictive legend specified in this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date and promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act. The Company shall complete any exchange process for the removal of a restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c) in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.
iv.Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii) for exchange of a Global Note or a portion thereof for one or more Physical Notes in accordance with the second immediately succeeding paragraph.
The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company initially appoints The Depository Trust Company to act as Depositary with respect to each Global Note. Initially, each Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Trustee as custodian for Cede & Co.

24



Physical Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, or, in the case of clause (iii) of the immediately preceding paragraph, the relevant beneficial owner, shall instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered.
At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, redeemed, repurchased or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, converted, canceled, redeemed, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or increase.
None of the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.
v.After the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Holder of an Affiliate Note may exchange such Note for a beneficial interest in a Global Note or transfer such Affiliate Note to a Person who takes delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Note only if the Trustee receives: (A) a Physical Note, duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, (B) a certificate from such Holder certifying as follows: (1) in the case of a proposed exchange, such Holder (x) is not an Affiliate of the Company and has not been an Affiliate of the Company during the three immediately preceding months, and (y) one year has elapsed since the later of the date the Affiliate Notes were acquired from the Company or from an Affiliate of the Company, or (2) in the case of a proposed transfer, such representations as are necessary to establish (x) that such Holder’s proposed transfer of the Affiliate Note satisfies all applicable requirements set forth in Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (y) that such Holder’s proposed transfer of Affiliate Notes was effected pursuant to an effective registration statement covering the resale of such Affiliate Note, (C) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that (1) such proposed exchange or transfer is in compliance with the safe harbor contained in Rule 144 under the Securities Act and that the restrictions on transfer contained on such Affiliate Note are no longer required in order to maintain compliance with such safe harbor or that such transfer was effected pursuant to an effective registration statement covering the sale of such Affiliate Note and (2) such Affiliate Note is not subject to subordination under the Subordination Agreement, and (D) written

Upon such transfer, and following delivery of an Officer’s Certificate from the Company and an Opinion of Counsel, then the Trustee shall cancel such Physical Note and cause, or direct the Note Registrar to cause, in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Note Registrar, the aggregate principal amount of the Physical Note to be exchanged, and shall credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Global Note equal to the principal amount of the Physical Note so cancelled. The Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of a Company Order, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.
(d) Common Stock Legend.
i.Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless the Note or such Common Stock has been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or such Common Stock has been issued upon conversion of a Note that has transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company with written notice thereof to the Trustee and any transfer agent for the Common Stock):

Section 2.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon its written request the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note, bearing a registration number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.

The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note, but the Company or the Trustee may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder of the old Note that became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for required repurchase or for redemption or is about to be converted in accordance with Article 14 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent evidence of their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Section 2.07 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Company, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

Section 2.08 Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates, to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled promptly by it in accordance with its customary procedures, and, except as expressly permitted by the provisions of this Indenture in the case of Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such disposition, shall deliver a certificate of such disposition to the Company, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order.

Section 2.09 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.10 Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes initially issued hereunder (other than differences in the issue date, the issue price, interest accrued prior to the issue date of such additional Notes and, if applicable, restrictions on transfer in respect of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes or securities law purposes, such additional Notes shall have one or more

31



separate CUSIP numbers. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required by Section 17.05, as the Trustee shall reasonably request.

In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, with or without notice to Holders, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties pursuant to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08 and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding under this Indenture upon their cancellation.
Section 2.11    Certain Provisions Related to the Affiliate Notes. The Company shall not issue any Affiliate Notes unless the Company, the Guarantor and the initial Holder of such Affiliate Notes execute a Subordination Agreement concurrently with such issuance, and all such Affiliate Notes shall be subject to the terms of such Subordination Agreement. To avoid doubt, no Notes (other than Affiliate Notes) shall be subject to any such Subordination Agreement or any form other form of subordination pursuant to this Indenture.

40



notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(h) or Section 6.01(i) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable.

The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay installments of accrued and unpaid interest upon all Notes and the principal of any and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of accrued and unpaid interest to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, and on such principal at the rate borne by the Notes plus one percent at such time) and amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on Notes that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured or waived pursuant to Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal (including the Redemption Price and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any Notes, (ii) a failure to repurchase any Notes when required or (iii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes.
Section 6.03 Additional Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) shall for the first 180 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to (x) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the first 90-day period on which such Event of Default is continuing and (y) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day from the 91st day until the 180th day following the occurrence of such an Event of Default. Subject to the last paragraph of this Section 6.03, Additional Interest payable pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be in addition to, not in lieu of, any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e). If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. On the 181st day after such Event of Default (if the

41



Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to file is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. The provisions of this paragraph will not affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b). In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.03 or the Company elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional Interest when due, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.

In order to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify in writing all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election prior to the beginning of such 180-day period. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.
In no event shall Additional Interest payable at the Company’s election as the remedy for an Event of Default relating to its failure to comply with its obligations under Section 4.06(b) as set forth in this Section 6.03, together with any interest that may accrue as a result of the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as described in Section 4.06(d), 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. The Trustee shall not have any duty to verify the Company’s calculation of Additional Interest.
Section 6.04 Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on any overdue principal and interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes plus one percent at such time, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and

42



payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.04, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.
In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.
In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to

43



Section 6.09 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 6.05 Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies or property, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:

First, to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee (in any capacity hereunder) under Section 7.06;
Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on, and any cash due upon conversion of, the Notes in default in the order of the date due of the payments of such interest and cash due upon conversion, as the case may be, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;
Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of the whole amount (including, if applicable, the payment of the Redemption Price, the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price and any cash due upon conversion) then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and, to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes at such time plus one percent, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price, the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price and the cash due upon conversion) and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over principal or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price and any cash due upon conversion) and accrued and unpaid interest; and
Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.
Section 6.06 Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if applicable, the Redemption Price and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or

44



under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

(b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder;
(c) such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to be incurred therein or thereby;
(d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of such security or indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; and
(e) no written direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding within such 60-day period pursuant to Section 6.09,
it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, on or after such respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
Section 6.07 Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the

45



exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

Section 6.08 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power 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 shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.

Section 6.09 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. Subject to the Trustee’s right to receive security or indemnity from the relevant Holders as described herein, the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is in conflict with law, this Indenture, is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal (including any Redemption Price or Repurchase Event Repurchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.


46



Section 6.10 Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall send to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register (or, in the case of Global Notes, pursuant to the customary procedures of the Depositary) notice of all Defaults actually known to a Responsible Officer within 90 days after it occurs, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (including the Redemption Price and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price, if applicable), or accrued and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof 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 that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) 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 principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price, if applicable) on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note, or receive the consideration due upon conversion, in accordance with the provisions of Article 14.

The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee.

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 senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property 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 7.06.

The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.

Section 8.02 Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and Section 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee.

In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee.

(d)    where there is a Successor Guarantor, the Successor Guarantor has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such

63



consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with this Indenture and that the supplemental indenture is the valid, binding obligations of the Successor Guarantor, enforceable against such Successor Guarantor in accordance with its terms, such Opinion of Counsel to be subject to customary exceptions.
For purposes of this Section 11.04, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Subsidiary Guarantor to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Subsidiary Guarantor instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Subsidiary Guarantor on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Subsidiary Guarantor to another Person.
In case of any consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Guarantor, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of all of the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor under the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture, such Successor Guarantor shall succeed to and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Subsidiary Guarantor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be substituted for the Subsidiary Guarantor, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part. Such Successor Guarantor thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Subsidiary Guarantor any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Subsidiary Guarantor and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Guarantor instead of the Subsidiary Guarantor and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Guarantor thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. 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 consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), upon compliance with this Article 11 the Person named as the “Subsidiary Guarantor” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11) 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 and the Notes. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

ARTICLE 12.
Immunity of Incorporators, Stockholders, Officers and Directors

Section 12.01 Indenture and Notes Solely Corporate Obligations. No recourse for the payment of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest on any Note, nor for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture or in any Note, nor because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, employee, agent, Officer or director or Subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Notes.

ARTICLE 13.
Subsidiary Guarantee
Section 13.01 Subsidiary Guarantee. (a) The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each Holder and to the Trustee and their respective successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder:

i.the full and punctual payment of principal of, premium (if any) on and interest on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable on the Maturity Date, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise, and all other monetary obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes; and
ii.the full and punctual performance within applicable grace periods of all other obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes (all the foregoing under (i) and (ii) of this Section 13.01(a) being hereinafter collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
(b) The Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from the Subsidiary Guarantor and that the Subsidiary Guarantor will remain bound under this Article 17 notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.
(c) The Subsidiary Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that this Subsidiary Guarantee shall not be discharged except by full payment of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture or

65



by release in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by:
i.the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise;
ii.any extension or renewal of any thereof;
iii.any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement;
iv.the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the obligations of any of them;
v.the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; or
vi.except as set forth in Section 13.06, any change in the ownership of the Subsidiary Guarantor.
The Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment, performance and compliance when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder or the Trustee to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Except as expressly set forth in Sections 3.01 and 17.05, the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, this Indenture, the Notes or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder or the Trustee to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.
The Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Subsidiary Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or premium (if any) on or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder or the Trustee upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

66



In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder or the Trustee has at law or in equity against the Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay the principal of or premium (if any) on or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation when or to perform or comply with any other Guaranteed Obligation, the Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders or the Trustee an amount equal to the sum of (1) the unpaid amount of such Guaranteed Obligations, (2) accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (but only to the extent not prohibited by law) and (3) all other monetary Guaranteed Obligations of the Company to the Holders and the Trustee.
The Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of the Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such Guaranteed Obligations as provided in Article 6, such Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of this Section.
The Subsidiary Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Article 13.
Each payment to be made by the Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantee shall be made without setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.
Section 13.02 Benefits Acknowledged. The Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that the guarantee and waivers made by it pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 13.03 Successors and Assigns. This Article 13 shall be binding upon the Subsidiary Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall enure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Trustee and the Holders and, in the event of any transfer or assignment of rights by any Holder or the Trustee, the rights and privileges conferred upon that party in this Indenture and in the Notes shall automatically extend to and be vested in such transferee or assignee, all subject to the terms and conditions of this Indenture.

Section 13.04 No Waiver. Neither a failure nor a delay on the part of either the Trustee or the Holders in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Article 13 shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights, remedies and benefits of the Trustee and the Holders herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights, remedies or benefits which either may have under this Article 13 at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

67




Section 13.05 Modification. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Article 13, nor the consent to any departure by the Subsidiary Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Trustee, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice to or demand on the Subsidiary Guarantor in any case shall entitle the Subsidiary Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

Section 13.06 Release of Guarantor and Termination of Subsidiary Guarantee. If the Subsidiary Guarantor and the Company merge with each other or consolidate together in a transaction permitted by Section 11.04, then the Subsidiary Guarantee shall automatically be terminated upon the consummation of such merger or consolidation and shall no longer have any effect from such time without any further action required on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. At the request of the Company, the Trustee shall execute and deliver such documents or instruments reasonably requested by the Company or such Guarantor evidencing such termination.

ARTICLE 14.
Conversion of Notes

Section 14.01 Conversion Privilege. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 14, each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of 259.8753 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 14, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of Section 14.02, the “Conversion Obligation”).

Section 14.02 Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.

(a) Subject to this Section 14.02, Section 14.03(b) and Section 14.07(a), upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall satisfy its Conversion Obligation by paying or delivering, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, cash (“Cash Settlement”), shares of Common Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 14.02 (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, together with a cash payment, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection (j) of this Section 14.02 (“Combination Settlement”), at its election, as set forth in this Section 14.02.

68



i.All conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs (x) on or after January 15, 2026 or (y) during a Redemption Period, shall be settled using the same Settlement Method.
ii.Except for any conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs during a Redemption Period and any conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs on or after January 15, 2026, the Company shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions with the same Conversion Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions with different Conversion Dates.
iii.If, in respect of any Conversion Date (or the period described in the third immediately succeeding set of parentheses, as the case may be), the Company elects to deliver a notice (the “Settlement Notice”) of the relevant Settlement Method in respect of such Conversion Date (or such period, as the case may be), the Company shall deliver such Settlement Notice in writing to converting Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date (or, in the case of any conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs (x) during a Redemption Period, in such Redemption Notice, or (y) on or after January 15, 2026, no later than January 15, 2026). If the Company does not elect a Settlement Method prior to the deadline set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement with respect to any conversion on such Conversion Date or during such period, as the case may be, and the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation, and the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be equal to $1,000. Such Settlement Notice shall specify the relevant Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the relevant Settlement Notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes to be converted. If the Company delivers a Settlement Notice electing Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation but does not indicate a Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes in such Settlement Notice, the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes to be converted shall be deemed to be $1,000.
iv.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 to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date;

69



B.if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 10 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period; and
C.if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 10 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period.

v.The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Conversion Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last day of the Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of delivering fractional shares of Common Stock. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility for any such determination.
(b) Subject to Section 14.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (i) in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h) and (ii) in the case of a Physical Note (1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and (4) if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h). The Trustee (and if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 14 on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of Conversion with respect to any Notes may be surrendered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered a Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice to the Company in respect of such Notes and has not validly withdrawn such Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.03, in the case of Physical Notes, or through the applicable procedures of the Depositary, in the case of Global Notes.

70



If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Obligation with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered.
(c) A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above. Except as set forth in Section 14.03(b) and Section 14.07(a), the Company shall deliver the consideration due in respect of the Conversion Obligation on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date, if the Company elects Physical Settlement, or on the second Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the Observation Period, in the case of any other Settlement Method. If any shares of Common Stock are due to converting Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to the Conversion Agent or to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary for the full number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Company’s Conversion Obligation.
(d) In case any Physical Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service charge by the converting Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such conversion being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such conversion.
(e) If a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Company shall work directly with its stock transfer agent to effect any delivery of Common Stock in connection with a conversion. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
(f) Except as provided in Section 14.04, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14.
(g) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian (if other than the Trustee) at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify

71



the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.
(h) Upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any, except as set forth below. The Company’s settlement of the full Conversion Obligation shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon a conversion of Notes into a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Regular Record Date and prior to the open of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date will receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall be required (1) for conversions after the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Repurchase Event Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; (3) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the second Scheduled Trading day immediately succeeding the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (4) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all Holders of record after the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, any Repurchase Event Repurchase Date or Redemption Date, in each case, as described above, shall receive the full interest payment in cash due on the Maturity Date or other applicable Interest Payment Date regardless of whether their Notes have been converted or redeemed following such Regular Record Date.
(i) The Person in whose name the shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date (if the Company elects to satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement) or the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (if the Company elects to satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Combination Settlement), as the case may be. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for conversion.
(j) The Company shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP for the relevant Conversion Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or based on the Daily VWAP for the last Trading Day

72



of the relevant Observation Period (in the case of Combination Settlement). For each Note surrendered for conversion, if the Company has elected Combination Settlement, the full number of shares that shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the relevant Observation Period and any fractional shares remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash.
Section 14.03 Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes or During a Redemption Period. (a) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change or the Company issued a Redemption Notice pursuant to Section 16.02 and a Holder elects to convert its Notes called for redemption during the related Redemption Period, the Company shall, under the circumstances described below, 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 below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Repurchase Event Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the proviso in clause (b) of the definition thereof, the 35th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding Notes pursuant to Article 16, Holders of the Notes not called for redemption will not be entitled to convert such Notes on account of the Notice of Redemption and will not be entitled to an increased Conversion Rate for conversions of such Notes (on account of the Notice of Redemption) during the applicable Redemption Period.

(b) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or during a Redemption Period, the Company shall, at its option, satisfy the related Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property following such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Stock Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation shall be paid to Holders in cash on the second Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify in writing the Holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change no later than five Business Days after such Effective Date.

73



(c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) or the Redemption Notice Date, as the case may be, and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed to be paid) per share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or the Redemption Notice Date, as applicable. If the holders of the Common Stock receive in exchange for their Common Stock only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change or Redemption Notice Date, as the case may be. In the event that a Conversion Date occurs during both a Redemption Period and a Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period, a Holder of any such Notes to be converted will be entitled to a single increase to the Conversion Rate with respect to the first to occur of the applicable Redemption Notice Date or Effective Date, and the later event shall be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of this Section 14.03. The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date (as such term is used in Section 14.04) or expiration date of the event occurs during such five consecutive Trading Day period.
(d) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of the Notes is otherwise 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 the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 14.04.
(e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 14.03 for each Stock Price and Effective Date or Redemption Notice Date, as applicable, set forth below:

i.if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the Effective Date or the Redemption Notice Date, as the case may be, is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares 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 or Redemption Notice Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;
ii.if the Stock Price is greater than $20.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and
iii.if the Stock Price is less than $2.96 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 337.8378 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04.
(f) Nothing in this Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
Section 14.04 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of a share split or share combination or 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 in this Section 14.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the 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 shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
ex14_12.jpg
where,

75



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 share combination, as applicable;
CR'    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date;
OS0    =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date; and
OS'    =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.
Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(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 14.04(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 entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 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 shall be increased based on the following formula:
ex14_111.jpg
where,
CR0    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;
CR'    =    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;

76



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 14.04(b) shall 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 shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased 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 no such rights, options or warrants are exercised prior to their expiration, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to 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 14.04(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at 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 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 Board of Directors.
(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 as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.04(a) or Section 14.04(b), (ii) rights issued under a stockholder rights plan (except as otherwise provided in Section 14.11), (iii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in Section 14.04(d) shall apply, (iv) distributions of Reference Property issued in exchange for Common Stock in a Common Stock Change Event, and (v) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.04(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

77



ex14_31.jpg
where,
CR0    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
CR'    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
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 Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), then in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note 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 receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing 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.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04(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 of the Company’s Subsidiaries or other business units, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

78



ex14_41.jpg
where,
CR0    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;
CR'    =    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 the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 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”); provided that if there is no last reported sale price of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock on such Ex-Dividend Date, the Valuation Period shall be the first ten consecutive Trading Day period after, and including the first date such Last Reported Sale Price is available; and
MP0    =    the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the 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, references in the portion of this Section 14.04(c) related to Spin-Offs shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off and 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, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, 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 replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off and such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of a conversion of Notes, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion of Notes, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. If the distribution constituting the Spin-Off is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

79



For purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 14.11), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of the Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Common Stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of the Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(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 14.04(c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, 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 with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). 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 immediately 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 14.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that 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 a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming 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 that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.
For purposes of Section 14.04(a), Section 14.04(b) and this Section 14.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable also includes one or both of:
(A)    a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 14.04(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or
(B)    a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.04(b) is applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”),
then, in either case, (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section

80



14.04(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 14.04(a) and Section 14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any shares of Common Stock included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(b).
(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:
spoversp-c1.jpg
where,
CR0    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
CR'    =    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 the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock.
Any increase pursuant to this Section 14.04(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 make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), then, in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note 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, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.

81



(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 odd-lot tender offers), 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 Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
ex14_51.jpg
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 date such tender or exchange offer expires;
CR'    =    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 date such tender or exchange offer expires;
AC    =    the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) 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 date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
OS'    =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
SP'    =    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 date such tender or exchange offer expires.
The increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; 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 expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in

82



the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the expiration date of such tender or exchange offer and 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, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, 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 expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references in this Section 14.04(e) to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the date that such tender or exchange offer expires and such Trading Day in determining the Conversion Rate as of such Trading Day. In addition, if the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires is after the 10th Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Observation Period in respect of a conversion of Notes, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph and this paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that conversion of Notes, with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in this Section 14.04(e) but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are rescinded, the applicable 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) Notwithstanding this Section 14.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if: (i) a Conversion Rate adjustment for any event becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date; (ii) a Note is to be converted pursuant to Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement; (iii) the Conversion Date for such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or any Trading Day in the Observation Period for such conversion (in the case of Combination Settlement) occurs on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or before the related Record Date; and (iv) the Holder would be treated, on such Record Date, as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock based on a Conversion Rate that is adjusted for such event on such basis, then, such Conversion Rate adjustment will not be given effect for such conversion (in the case of Physical Settlement) or such Trading Day (in the case of Combination Settlement). Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were, as of such Record Date, the record owner of such shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and will participate in such event.
(g) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of the Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of the Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities.
(h) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 14.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, the Company from time to time may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of

83



at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall give to the Holder of each Note at its last address appearing on the Note Register a notice of the increase at least 15 days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted:
i.upon the issuance of Common Stock at a price below the Conversion Price or otherwise (other than any such issuance described in Section 14.04(a), (b) or (c));
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 or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries;
iv.upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (iii) of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;
v.for a third-party tender offer by any party other than a tender offer by one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries as described in Section 14.04(e)
vi.upon the repurchase of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share purchase program or other buy-back transaction, including structured or derivative transactions, that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the kind described in Section 14.04(e);
vii.solely for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or
viii.for accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
(j) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share. If an

84



adjustment to the Conversion Rate otherwise required pursuant to clause (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 14.04 would result in a change of less than 1% to the Conversion Rate, then, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at its election, defer and carry forward such adjustment, except that all such deferred adjustments must be given effect immediately upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) when all such deferred adjustments would result in an aggregate change of at least 1% to the Conversion Rate; (ii) the Conversion Date of, or any trading day of an Observation Period for, any Note; (iii) the date a Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs; and (iv) January 15, 2026.
(k) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not 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. 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 without inquiry that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall give such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder at its last address appearing on the Note Register of this Indenture. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(l) For purposes of this Section 14.04, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares of Common Stock 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 of Common Stock issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.
Section 14.05 Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including an Observation Period and the period for determining the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a redemption pursuant to Article 16), the Board of Directors shall 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 as provided under Section 14.02 where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date, effective time or expiration date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

For the avoidance of doubt, the adjustments made pursuant to the foregoing paragraph will be made without duplication of any adjustment made pursuant to the provision set forth under Section 14.04.

85



Section 14.06 Shares to Be Fully Paid. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming delivery of the maximum number of Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03 and that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder and that Physical Settlement were applicable).

Section 14.07 Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock.

(a) In the case of:
i.any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than a change to par value, or from par value to no par value, or 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 the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety or
iv.any statutory share exchange,
in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, shares, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Common Stock Change Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, the Company or the successor or acquiring corporation, as the case may be, will execute a supplemental indenture with the Trustee, providing that the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares, shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Common Stock Change Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) upon such Common Stock Change Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(h) providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Common Stock Change Event (A) the Company shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon conversion of Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 and (B) (I) any amount payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall continue to be payable in cash, (II) any shares of Common Stock that the Company would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section

86



14.02 shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of shares of Common Stock would have been entitled to receive in such Common Stock Change Event, (III) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property and (IV) the conditions to conversion specified in Section 14.04(b)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) shall be determined as if each reference to a share of Common Stock were instead to a unit of Reference Property.
    If the Common Stock Change Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, 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 will be deemed to be (x) the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election or (y) if no holders of Common Stock affirmatively make such an election, the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in such Common Stock Change Event, then for all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Common Stock Change 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 by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03), multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Common Stock Change Event and (B) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders on or before the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. The Company shall notify in writing 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.
    The supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 14. If, in the case of any Common Stock Change Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets of a Person other than the Company or the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Common Stock Change Event, 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, including the right of Holders to require the Company to repurchase their Notes upon a Fundamental Change Article 15, as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing.
(b) When the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 14.07, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a unit of Reference Property after any such Common Stock Change Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at its address

87



appearing on the Note Register provided for in this Indenture, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.
(c) The Company shall not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.07. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes into cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, as set forth in Section 14.01 and Section 14.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock Change Event.
(d) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Common Stock Change Events.
Section 14.08 Certain Covenants. (a) The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

(b) The Company covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any federal or state law before such shares of Common Stock may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will, to the extent then permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval, as the case may be.
(c) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system the Company will list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
Section 14.09 Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to 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 securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee and any other 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 Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.07 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon

88



the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 14.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto.

Section 14.10 Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:

(a) action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section 14.11;
(b) Common Stock Change Event; or
(c) voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Indenture), the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to be given to each Holder, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the date on which such Common Stock Change Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and 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 Common Stock Change Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, Common Stock Change Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.
Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section 14.11, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and the 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. In the absence of an Officer’s Certificate being filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee), the Trustee may assume without inquiry that the Conversion Rate has not been adjusted and that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge remains in effect.
Section 14.11 Stockholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a stockholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each share of Common Stock, if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such stockholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the

89



rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable stockholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock Distributed Property as provided in Section 14.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

Section 14.12 Exchange in Lieu of Conversion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, when a Holder surrenders its Notes for conversion, the Company may, at its election (an “Exchange Election”), direct the Conversion Agent to surrender, on or prior to the second Business Day following the 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 timely deliver, in exchange for such Notes, the cash, shares of Common Stock or combination of cash and shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be due upon conversion pursuant to Section 14.02 due upon conversion (the “Conversion Consideration”), all as provided in this Article 14. If the Company makes an Exchange Election, the Company shall, by the close of business on the second Business Day following the relevant Conversion Date, notify in writing the Trustee, the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Holder surrendering Notes for conversion that the Company has made the Exchange Election and the Company shall notify the designated financial institution of the Settlement Method the Company has elected with respect to such conversion and the relevant deadline for delivery of the Conversion Consideration.

Any Notes exchanged by the designated financial institution shall remain outstanding, subject to the applicable procedures of the Depositary. If the designated financial institution agrees to accept any Notes for exchange but does not timely deliver the Conversion Consideration, or if such designated financial institution does not accept the Notes for exchange, the Company shall deliver the Conversion Consideration due upon conversion to the converting Holder at the time and in the manner provided in this Article 14 as if the Company had not made an Exchange Election.
The Company’s designation of a financial institution to which Notes may be submitted for exchange does not require such financial institution to accept any Notes, in which case the notes shall be converted in the manner provided in this Article 14. The Company may, but is not obligated to, pay any consideration to, or otherwise enter into any agreement with, any designated financial institution(s) for or with respect to such designation.
Section 14.13 Beneficial Ownership Limitations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, no Holder (other than an Affiliated Entity) will be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Notes, and no conversion of Notes shall take place, to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt (or conversion) would cause such Holder and its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), in each case together with any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with such Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) to beneficially own shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. For purposes of the

90



foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Notes with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unexchanged principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by the Holder, its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), its associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) or any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with any of the foregoing Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) and (ii) exercise, conversion or exchange of the unexercised, unconverted or unexchanged portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on exercise, conversion or exchange analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Notes) beneficially owned by the Holder, its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), its associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) or any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with any of the foregoing Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member). Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this provision, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any purported delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes held by any converting Holder (other than an Affiliated Entity) shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in such converting Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitations in violation of this Section 14.13. Solely for the purpose of this Section 14.13, in the case of Global Notes, “Holder” shall mean a person that holds a beneficial interest in the Notes and not the Depository or its nominee. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations set forth in this Section 14.13 shall not apply with respect to Notes held by an Affiliated Entity.

(b) To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 14.13 applies, the determination of whether any Notes are convertible (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and of which principal amount of such Notes are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and, unless otherwise indicated in connection with the Notice of Conversion, the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether any Notes may be converted (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and which principal amount such Notes are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. To ensure compliance with this restriction, unless otherwise indicated in connection with the Notice of Conversion, the Holder shall be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this Section 14.13 and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
(c) For purposes of this Section 14.13, in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock

91



as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to such Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities of the Company, including the Notes, by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.
(d) The “General Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exchange of any Notes held by the Holder. Any Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may elect a beneficial ownership limit as to such Holder (but not as to any other Holder) (such limit, a “Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation” and together with the General Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitations”) that is less than or equal to the then-applicable General Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Any Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation will be effective as of the date specified in such notice, which shall not be earlier than (i) the date such notice is delivered to the Company in the event such notice decreases the Beneficial Ownership Limitations applicable to such Holder, and (ii) 61 days after the date such notice is delivered to the Company in all other cases.
(e) Any Notes surrendered for conversion for which shares of Common Stock are not delivered due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations shall not be extinguished and, such Holder may either:
i.request return of the Notes surrendered by such Holder for conversion, after which the Company shall deliver such Notes to such Holder within two Trading Days after receipt of such request; or
ii.certify to the Company that the person (or persons) receiving shares of Common Stock upon conversion is not, and would not, as a result of such conversion, become the beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time in excess of the applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations, after which the Company shall cause to be delivered any such shares of Common Stock withheld on account of such applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations by the later of (x) the date such shares were otherwise due to such person (or persons) and (y) two Trading Days after receipt of such certification; provided, however, until such time as the affected Holder gives such notice, no person shall be deemed to be the shareholder of record with respect to the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon conversion in excess of any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations. Upon delivery of such notice, the provisions under Section 14.02 shall apply to the shares of Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to such notice.

92



(f) Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to monitor Beneficial Ownership Limitations or to monitor the Company’s or any Holder’s compliance with this Section 14.13.
ARTICLE 15.
Repurchase of Notes at Option of Holders

Section 15.01 [Intentionally Omitted]
Section 15.02 Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Repurchase Event. (a) If a Repurchase Event occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof that is equal to minimum denominations of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, on the date (the “Repurchase Event Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days or more than 35 Business Days following the date of the Repurchase Event Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date (the “Repurchase Event Repurchase Price”), unless the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 15. The Repurchase Event Repurchase Date shall be subject to postponement in order to allow the Company to comply with applicable law as a result of changes to such applicable law occurring after the date of this Indenture.

(b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 15.02 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:
i.delivery to the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice”) in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date; and
ii.delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price therefor.

93



The Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:
iii.in the case of Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase;
iv.the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and
v.that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture;

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice must comply with applicable Depositary procedures.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 15.02 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.03.
The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.
(c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the effective date of a Repurchase Event, as applicable, the Company shall provide to all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a notice (the “Repurchase Event Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the effective date of the Repurchase Event and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. Each Repurchase Event Company Notice shall specify:
i.the events causing the Repurchase Event;
ii.the date of the Repurchase Event;
iii.the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article 15;
iv.the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price;
v.the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date;
vi.the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable;

94



vii.if applicable, the Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate;
viii.that the Notes with respect to which a Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be converted only if the Holder withdraws the Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and
ix.the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes.
No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 15.02.
At the Company’s request given at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date such notice is required to be sent to Holders (or such shorter time as agreed by the Trustee), the Trustee shall give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Repurchase Event Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Repurchase Event if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary shall be deemed to have been cancelled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
Section 15.03 Withdrawal of Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice. (a) A Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 15.03 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date, specifying:

i.the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof,
ii.if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and

95



iii.the principal amount, if any, of such Note that remains subject to the original Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000;
provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with applicable procedures of the Depositary.
Section 15.04 Deposit of Repurchase Event Repurchase Price. (a) The Company will deposit with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04) on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Repurchase Event Repurchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds and/or Notes by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 15.02) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 15.02 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided, however, that payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price.

(b) If by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased on such Repurchase Event Repurchase Date, then, with respect to the Notes that have been properly surrendered for repurchase and have not been validly withdrawn, (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent) and (iii) all other rights of the Holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest).
(c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 15.02, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unrepurchased portion of the Note surrendered.
Section 15.05 Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes. In connection with any repurchase offer pursuant to a Repurchase Event Repurchase Notice, the Company will, if required:

(a) comply with the provisions of the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act;

96



(b) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act; and
(c) otherwise comply in all material respects with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Company to repurchase the Notes;
in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article 15 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in this Article 15.
ARTICLE 16.
Optional Redemption

Section 16.01 Optional Redemption. The Notes shall not be redeemable by the Company prior to April 20, 2024. On or after April 20, 2024, the Company may redeem (an “Optional Redemption”) for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at the Redemption Price, if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the Conversion Price then in effect for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive Trading Day period (including the last Trading Day of such period) ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding, the date on which the Company provides the Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 16.02.

Section 16.02 Notice of Optional Redemption; Selection of Notes. (a) In case the Company exercises its Optional Redemption right to redeem all or, as the case may be, any part of the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than 5 Business Days prior to the date such Redemption Notice is to be sent (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall deliver or cause to be delivered a notice of such Optional Redemption (a “Redemption Notice”) not less than 15 nor more than 35 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed as a whole or in part; provided that, if the Company shall give such notice, it shall also give written notice of the Redemption Date to the Trustee, the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee). The Redemption Date must be a Business Day. The Company may not specify a Redemption Date that falls on or after the 11th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.

(b) The Redemption Notice, if delivered in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Redemption Notice or any defect in the Redemption Notice to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.
(c) Each Redemption Notice shall specify:
i.the Redemption Date;

97



ii.the Redemption Price;
iii.that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date;
iv.the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
v.that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price (in which case a Holder may surrender their Notes for conversion until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for);
vi.the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes and the Settlement Method and Specified Dollar Amount, if applicable;
vii.the Conversion Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to the Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 14.03;
viii.the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes;
ix.in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, a new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof shall be issued, which principal amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof.
(d) A Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable. An Optional Redemption may not be conditional.
(e) If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected according to the Depositary’s applicable procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, or, in the case of Notes represented by Physical Notes, by lot on a pro rata basis or by another method the Trustee deems to be appropriate and fair. If any Note selected for partial redemption is submitted for conversion in part after such selection, the portion of the Note submitted for conversion shall be deemed (so far as may be possible) to be the portion selected for redemption.
Section 16.03 Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. (a) If any Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 16.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice and at the applicable Redemption Price.

The Trustee will forward the Company’s calculations to any Holder of Notes upon the written request of that Holder at the sole cost and expense of the Company.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]
NANTHEALTH, INC.
4.50% Convertible Senior Note due 2026

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”), initially limited to the aggregate principal amount of $125,000,000 all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of December 21, 2016 (the “Indenture”), between the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture. This Note is guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantor, as set forth in the Indenture.

In case certain Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price on the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date, the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the principal (including the Redemption Price, the Repurchase
A-7



Event Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and the consideration due upon conversion of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money and/or shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, herein prescribed.
The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.
The Notes shall be redeemable at the Company’s option on or after April [5], 2024, in
accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions specified in the Indenture. No sinking
fund is provided for the Notes. Upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Repurchase Event Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Repurchase Event Repurchase Price.
Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.
Terms used in this Note and defined in the Indenture are used herein as therein defined.

EXHIBIT B
Form of Subordination Agreement
[_], 2021
Culver City, California
This Subordination Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated [_], 2021, is made between NantHealth, Inc. (formerly Nant Health, LLC), a Delaware corporation, with offices at 9920 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City, California 90232 (the “Company”), NaviNet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Subsidiary Guarantor”) and [_____] (together with any transferee of the New Notes held by [_____], the “Holder”).
WHEREAS, the Company previously issued Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Existing Notes”) pursuant to the Indenture, dated on or about December 21, 2016, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Existing Notes Indenture”).
WHEREAS, the Company wishes to issue Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 to certain investors, including Holder, pursuant to the Indenture, dated on or about [_], 2021 (the “New Notes Indenture”), by and among the Company, NaviNet, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association (such notes issued to Holder, the “New Notes”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the Company and Holder do hereby agree as follows:
1.Subordination.
(a)Agreement of Subordination. The Company, the Subsidiary Guarantor and Holder each covenant and agree that the New Notes shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Section 1; and each holder of the New Notes, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the New Notes shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt (as defined below), whether outstanding at the date of this Agreement or thereafter incurred. For purposes of this Agreement, “Senior Debt” shall mean the principal of, premium, if any, interest (including all interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-petition interest is allowable as a claim in any such proceeding), and all fees, costs, expenses and other amounts accrued or due on or in connection with the Existing Notes whether outstanding on the date of this Agreement or thereafter created, incurred, assumed, guaranteed or in effect guaranteed by the Company (including all deferrals, renewals, extensions or refundings of, or amendments, modifications or supplements to, the foregoing).
(b)Payments to Holders.
(i)No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the New Notes if (A) a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or other obligations due on any Senior Debt occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Senior Debt for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument evidencing such Senior Debt) (including a default set forth in Sections 6.01(a), 6.01(b) or 6.01(c) of the indenture pursuant to which the Senior Debt was issued) (a “Payment Default”), unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt or (B)
9641151v4
WORKAMER\38409501.v4


the Company’s receipt of a Payment Blockage Notice (as defined in the Existing Notes Indenture) (a “Non-Payment Default”).
(ii)In the case of a Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the New Notes upon the earlier of the date upon which the Payment Default is cured or waived or the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, in each case unless this Section 1 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at such time. In the case of a Non-Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the New Notes upon the earlier of (A) the date upon which the Non-Payment Default is cured or waived, (B) the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, (C) the date that is 179 days after the date on which such Payment Blockage Notice is received by the Company, and (D) the date such Payment Blockage Notice is rescinded.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or other proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, or otherwise, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Debt shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt before any payment or other distribution is made with respect to or on account of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on the New Notes; and upon any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holder would be entitled, except for the provision of this Section 1, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holder if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Debt (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order), or to the trustee or trustees under the indenture pursuant to which the Senior Debt was issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Debt, before any payment or distribution or provision therefor is made to the Holder.
(iv)For purposes of this Section 1, the words, “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Section 1 with respect to the New Notes to the payment of all Senior Debt which may at the time be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Debt is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Debt are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 1(b).
2



(v)In the event of the acceleration of the New Notes because of an Event of Default (as defined in the New Notes Indenture), (i) no payment or distribution shall be made to the Holder in respect of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on the New Notes or (ii) no payment or distribution shall be made to the Holder in respect of the Subsidiary Guarantee (as defined in the New Notes Indenture) until all Senior Debt has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt or such acceleration is rescinded by the Holder.
(vi)In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Holder (or any agent, trustee or other representative thereof) before all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Debt, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Debt.
(c)Subrogation of the New Notes.
(i)Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the rights of the Holder shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1 (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as the New Notes are subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal and premium, if any, on the New Notes shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 1, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1, to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt by the Holder, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Debt; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the Holder pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Section 1, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Debt shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of the New Notes. It is understood that the provisions of this Section 1 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Debt, on the other hand.
(ii)Nothing contained in this Section 1 or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holder the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the New Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Debt, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon
3



default under this Agreement, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 1 of the holders of Senior Debt in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 1, the Holder shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Holder, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 1.
(d)This Agreement shall terminate upon the repayment in full of all of the Existing Notes.
(e)Until the repayment in full of all Senior Debt, this Section 1 may not be amended in a manner adverse to the holders of Senior Debt without the consent of the Company, the Holder and the trustee of the Senior Debt (with the consent of holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Senior Debt).
2.Miscellaneous.
(a)Notice. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or by recognized overnight courier or personal delivery at the respective addresses of the parties as set forth herein or on the register maintained by the Company. Any party hereto may by notice so given change its address for future notice hereunder. Notice shall conclusively be deemed to have been given where received.
(b)No Waiver. No failure or delay by Holder to exercise any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other right, power or privilege.
(c)Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable law, such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement and the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.
(d)Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the New Notes Indenture, expresses the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.
(e)Waiver by the Company. The Company hereby expressly waives presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of default, notice of dishonor and all other demands and notices relating to this Agreement of any kind or nature whatsoever.

Registration Rights
2.1 Registration. 
a.Mandatory Registration. The Company shall prepare and, as promptly as practicable but in no event later than the Filing Deadline, file with the Commission a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities in a resale offering to be made on a continuous basis. The Registration Statement shall contain (except if otherwise directed by the Holders or required in order to address written comments to the Registration Statement received from the Commission upon review of such Registration Statement) the “Plan of Distribution” section in substantially the form attached as Annex A hereto, as the same may be amended in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that no Holder shall be named as an “underwriter” without such Holder’s express prior written consent. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event prior to the Effectiveness Deadline, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the initial Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act for so long as the securities registered under such Registration Statement continue to constitute Registrable Securities under this Agreement (the “Effectiveness Period”).
b.Rule 415; Cutback. In the event that the Commission does not permit the Company to register in any Registration Statement all of the Registrable Securities in a secondary offering, the Company shall promptly notify each of the Holders thereof, and amend such Registration Statement to register such maximum portion as permitted by Commission Guidance, including such guidance pertaining to Rule 415; provided that (i) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the Commission Guidance that are not then registered on an effective Registration Statement and (ii) the Company shall not name any Holder as an “underwriter” without such Holder’s express prior written consent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Commission Guidance sets forth a limitation on the number of Registrable Securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement in a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Company used commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater portion of Registrable Securities), unless otherwise directed in writing by a Holder as to its Registrable Securities and unless any Commission Guidance requires otherwise, the number of Registrable Securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced pro rata among all Holders. In the event of a cutback pursuant to this Section 2.1(b), the Company will offer to the Holders to file and cause to become effective with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or Commission Guidance, one or more Registration Statements to register for resale those Registrable Securities that were not previously registered for resale. No liquidated damages shall accrue as to any Registrable Securities subject to a cutback pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) if (i) the Holders decline to request the filing of a new Registration Statement or (ii) the Holders request the filing of a new Registration Statement, until such date as the Company is able to effect the registration of such Registrable Securities in accordance with Commission Guidance (the earlier such date, “Restriction Termination Date”); provided in respect of clause (ii), that the Filing Deadline for such Registrable Securities shall be 30 calendar days after
    -3-



the Restriction Termination Date and the Effectiveness Deadline for such Registrable Securities shall be 90 calendar days after the Restriction Termination Date.
c.Registration Default. The parties hereto agree that the Holders will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its obligations under this Section 2.1 and that, in such case, it would not be feasible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, subject to Section 2.1(b), if:
i.the Company does not file a Registration Statement covering all the Registrable Securities on or before the Filing Deadline;
ii.such Registration Statement is not declared effective by the Commission on or before the Effectiveness Deadline;
iii.the Company extends any Suspension Period (as defined below) beyond forty-five (45) days during any consecutive one hundred eighty (180) day period; or
iv.a Registration Statement is filed and declared effective but, during the applicable Effectiveness Period, a Registration Statement is not effective for any reason or the Prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason, in each case other than due to a Suspension Period as provided in Section 2.3(c), for its intended purpose without such disability being cured within ten (10) Business Days by an effective post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement, a supplement to the Prospectus, or a report filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that cures such failure or the effectiveness of the Registration Statement;
(each such event referred to in foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), a “Registration Default”), then for so long as any Convertible Notes, Series 1 Preferred Stock or Registrable Securities are outstanding, in such event as partial relief for the damages to any Holder by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell any Registrable Securities and not as a penalty (which remedy will not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or equity), the Company hereby agrees to pay to each Holder of Convertible Notes, Series 1 Preferred Stock or Registrable Securities then outstanding an aggregate amount equal to 0.25% per year on all outstanding Convertible Notes (and all outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and Common Stock to the extent any Convertible Notes have been exchanged pursuant to the Purchase Agreement or converted prior to the occurrence of the Registration Default and such Preferred Conversion Shares or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, remain Registrable Securities) held by such Holders for the first 90 days after such Registration Default and then, if such Registration Default is then continuing, 0.50% per year on all outstanding Convertible Notes (and all outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock or Common Stock to the extent any Convertible Notes have been exchanged pursuant to the Purchase Agreement converted prior to the occurrence of the Registration Default and such Preferred Conversion Shares or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, remain Registrable Securities) held by such Holders (such payment, “Additional Amounts”); provided that any payment on shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock or Common Stock will be calculated based on the principal amount of the Convertible Notes as a result of exchange or conversion of which such shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as applicable, have been issued to the extent such Preferred Conversion Shares or shares of Common Stock constitute Registrable Securities; provided, further, that any such Additional Amounts will cease to accrue to Holders hereunder when any such Registration Default will cease, be remedied or be cured. In no event shall Additional Amounts accrue under the terms of this Agreement at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum pursuant to this Agreement when combined with any Additional Interest payable pursuant to the Indenture, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Amounts.

2.2 Expenses of Registration.  All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with registrations pursuant to Section 2.1 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Section 2.1 if the registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders (in which case the Holders shall bear such expenses). All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be borne by the respective Holders.
2.3 Registration Procedures.  In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Section 2, the Company will keep the Holders advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the continuing status thereof. At its expense, the Company will:
a.Not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing of each Registration Statement and not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the filing of any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto (other than those incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference), the Company shall furnish to each Holder copies of all such documents proposed to be filed, which documents will be subject to the review of such Holders. The Company shall not file a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto to which the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities shall reasonably object in good faith; provided that the Company is notified of such objection in writing no later than five (5) Business Days after the Holders have been so furnished copies of a Registration Statement or one (1) Business Day after the Holders have been so furnished copies of any related Prospectus or amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus.
b.(i) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, to a Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep a Registration Statement continuously effective as to the applicable Registrable Securities for the Effectiveness Period, (ii) prepare and file with the Commission as promptly as practicable any additional Registration Statements as may be necessary in order to register for resale under the Securities Act all of the Registrable Securities, (iii) cause any related Prospectus to be amended or supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement (subject to the terms of this Agreement), and, as so supplemented or amended, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424, (iv) respond as promptly as reasonably possible to any comments received from the Commission with respect to a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto, and (v) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance (subject to the terms of this Agreement) with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in such Registration Statement as so amended or in such Prospectus as so supplemented.
c.Notify the Holders of Registrable Securities to be sold (which notice shall, pursuant to clauses (iii) through (vi) hereof, be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the Prospectus (entirely or in a particular jurisdiction, as the case may be) until the requisite changes have been made (such period when use is suspended, a “Suspension Period”)) as promptly as reasonably possible (and, in the case of (i)(A) below, not less than one (1) Business Day prior to such filing) and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such notice in writing no later than one (1) Business Day following the day: (i)(A) when a Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement is proposed to be filed, (B) when the Commission notifies the Company whether there will be a “review” of such Registration Statement and whenever the Commission comments in writing on such Registration Statement, and (C) with respect to a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or Prospectus or for additional information; (iii) of the issuance by
    -5-



the Commission or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement covering any Registrable Securities or the initiation of any Proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any Proceeding for such purpose; (v) of the occurrence of any event or passage of time that makes the financial statements included in a Registration Statement ineligible for inclusion therein or any statement made in a Registration Statement or Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires any revisions to a Registration Statement, Prospectus or other documents so that, in the case of a Registration Statement or the Prospectus, as the case may be, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (vi) of the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate development with respect to the Company that the Company believes may be material and that, in the determination of the board of directors of the Company, makes it not in the best interest of the Company to allow continued availability of a Registration Statement or Prospectus; provided that the Company shall excise any information contained in any such notice to the extent that such information would constitute material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its subsidiaries; and provided, further, that during any one hundred eighty (180) day period such Suspension Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of forty-five (45) days. By its acquisition of Registrable Securities, each Holder agrees that, upon receipt of a notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Section 2.3(c)(iii) through (vi), such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement and suspend the use of the applicable Prospectus until such Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the Suspension Period has been lifted, in which case use of the applicable Prospectus (as it may have been supplemented or amended) may be resumed. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and to provide notice thereof, as promptly as is practicable thereafter.
d.Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of, or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal as soon as reasonably practicable of (i) any order stopping or suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction.
e.Subject to the terms of this Agreement, consent to the use of such Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by such Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, except after the giving of any notice of a Suspension Period pursuant to Section 2.3(c) until the delivery of notice of the lifting of such Suspension Period.
f.Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 2.3(c), as promptly as reasonably possible under the circumstances taking into account the Company’s good faith assessment of any adverse consequences to the Company and its shareholders of the premature disclosure of such event, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to a Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered, neither a Registration Statement nor such Prospectus will contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

    -6-



g.Furnish to each Holder, without charge, (i) at least one (1) conformed copy of each Registration Statement and each amendment thereto and all exhibits to the extent requested by such Holder (excluding those previously furnished or incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission, except if such documents are available on EDGAR; and (ii) as many copies of each Prospectus or Prospectuses (including without limitation each form of prospectus) and each amendment or supplement thereto as such Holder may reasonably request.
h.Cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing or evidence of uncertificated shares evidencing Registrable Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to a Registration Statement, which shall be free of all restrictive legends and issued in such denominations and registered in such names as any such Holder may request.
i.Provide and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement.
j.Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be listed on each securities exchange on which identical securities issued by the Company are then listed.
k.If requested by a Holder, the Company shall (i) as soon as practicable, file a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment containing such information as any Holder reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities by such Holder, including information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering.
l.Prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the selling Holders in connection with the registration or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of all jurisdictions within the United States that the selling Holders request in writing be covered, to keep each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the applicable Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement; provided, that the Company will not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or to become subject to any material tax in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so subject.
m.If any Holder is required under applicable securities law to be described as an “underwriter” in a Registration Statement filed at the request of the Holders pursuant to this Agreement, (i) furnish to such Holder, on the date of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as such Holder may reasonably request, (A) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such Holder, and (B) an opinion, dated as of such date, of external counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to such Holder, and (ii) in connection with such Holder’s due diligence requirements, if any, make available for inspection by (i) such Holder and its legal counsel and (ii) one firm of accountants or other agents retained the Holders (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be
    -7-



reasonably deemed necessary by each such Holder solely for the purpose of establishing a due diligence defense under underwriter liability under the Securities Act, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information that any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, that each Inspector shall agree to hold in strict confidence and shall not make any disclosure (except to such Holders) or use of any Record or other information which the Company determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (a) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the Securities Act, (b) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (c) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement. Each Holder agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and any Holder) shall be deemed to limit the Holders’ ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.
n.Use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide such other cooperation with the disposition of the Registrable Securities as is reasonably requested by any Holder.
2.4 Information by the Holder.  Each Holder shall furnish to the Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification, or compliance referred to in this Section 2.
2.5 Reserved.
2.6 Rule 144 Reporting.  With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to:
a.Make and keep adequate current public information with respect to the Company available in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times;
b.File with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and
c.So long as the Holders owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to each Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144, and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as such Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without registration.
2.7 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights.  The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to the Holders by the Company under this Section 2 may be assigned by the Holder to a transferee of such Holder’s Registrable Securities only (i) in a transfer of Registrable Securities in an aggregate principal amount of at least $10,000,000 or (ii) to an affiliate of the Holder, provided that the transferee, in both cases, executes and delivers to the Company a joinder to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Registration Default will be deemed to have occurred with
    -8-



regard to any Registrable Securities held by any transferee prior to the date that is 10 Business Days after such transferee notifies the Company of its acquisition of Registrable Securities (and executes a joinder to this Agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company) and provides any information and documentation reasonably requested by the Company for the registration of such Registrable Securities pursuant to this Agreement.
2.8 No Inconsistent Registration Rights.  The Company has not entered, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into, any agreement with respect to the Company’s securities that would have the effect of impairing the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflict with the provisions hereof.
2.9 Termination of Registration Rights.  The right of any Holder to request registration shall terminate on such date on which it no longer holds any Registrable Securities.
2.10 Indemnification.
a.Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of Registrable Securities, the directors, officers, partners, members, shareholders, agents and employees of each such Holder, each Person who controls any Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors and officers, of such controlling Persons, (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all Proceedings, causes of action, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the Proceeding for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based upon information regarding such Holder furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein, or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder’s proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities. The Company shall notify the Holders promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement of which the Company is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnitee and shall survive the transfer of any Registrable Securities by any of the Holders.
b.Indemnification by the Holders. Each Holder shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors and officers of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Indemnified Liabilities, as incurred, to the extent arising out of or based solely upon: (i) such Holder’s failure to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to
    -9-



any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds actually received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation.
c.Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings.
i.If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Indemnitee or the Company (an “Indemnified Party”), such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party.
ii.An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party or Parties unless: (A) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such Proceeding, or (C) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and counsel to the Indemnified Party shall reasonably believe that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one (1) separate counsel and one (1) local counsel (if necessary) shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is a party, unless such settlement (x) involves only the payment of monetary settlement amounts, (y) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (z) does not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party.
iii.Subject to the terms of this Agreement, all reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Party, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party; provided, that, the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that portion of such fees and expenses applicable to such actions for which such Indemnified Party is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) not to be entitled to indemnification hereunder.
    -10-



d.Contribution.
i.If the indemnification under Section 2.10(a) or 2.10(b) is unavailable to an Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Party harmless for any Indemnified Liabilities, then each Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such Indemnified Liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Indemnified Liabilities shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, any reasonable attorneys’ or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms.
ii.The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.10(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of such Holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or Prospectus giving rise to such contribution obligation exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Each Holder’s obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) are several and not joint. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
e.Remedies Not Exclusive. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 2.10 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Parties.
Section 3.
Miscellaneous
3.1 Amendment.  Except as expressly provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated other than by a written instrument referencing this Agreement and signed by the Company and the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities (including for this purpose the Convertible Notes and the Series 1 Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) then outstanding.

Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing.

Annex A
Plan of Distribution
The selling shareholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling shareholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the ordinary shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.
The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares of common stock or interests therein:
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
privately negotiated transactions;
short sales effected after the date the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part is declared effective by the SEC;
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares of common stock at a stipulated price per share;
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
any other method permitted by applicable law.
The selling shareholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the ordinary shares, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus. The selling shareholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
In connection with the sale of shares of common stock, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling



shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares of common stock offered by this prospectus, which shares of common stock such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The aggregate proceeds to the selling shareholders from the sale of the shares of common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of such shares less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling shareholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.
The selling shareholders also may resell all or a portion of their respective shares of common stock in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.
The selling shareholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the ordinary shares or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of shares of common stock may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling shareholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, unless the sale of our shares of common stock are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
To the extent required, the shares of common stock to be sold, the names of the selling shareholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the shares of common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.
We have advised the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may apply to sales of shares of common stock in the market and to the activities of the selling shareholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling shareholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares of common stock against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus.
We have agreed with the selling shareholders to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part to become effective and to remain continuously effective, subject to certain exceptions, until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with such registration statement or (2) the date on which all of the shares of common stock may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144
    



of the Securities Act and all restrictive legends associated with the shares of common stock have been removed.
    


Appendix C
SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE

Up to $125,000,000        [_], 2021
    Culver City, California
    

WHEREAS, NantHealth, Inc., a Delaware corporation, with offices at 9920 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City, California 90232 (the “Company”), entered into a promissory note dated August 8, 2018 (the “Original Note”) in favor of Nant Capital, LLC, with offices at 9922 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City, California 90232 (“Holder”);

WHEREAS, the Company and Holder amended and restated the Original Note on December 31, 2020 (the “First Restated Note”).

WHEREAS, the Company and Holder wish to amend and restate the First Restated Note with the terms of this Second Amended and Restated Promissory Note (this “Note”).

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the Company and Holder do hereby (a) amend, restate and replace the First Restated Note in its entirety and (b) otherwise agree as follows:

    The Company hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of Holder, or to the order of Holder’s registered assigns, the principal amount of One Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) or, if less, the aggregate unpaid amount of all advances (each, an “Advance” and, collectively, the “Advances”) made by Holder and disbursed to the Company pursuant to this Note, in each case, together with all accrued interest thereon, in immediately available funds, at the times and in the manner set forth herein.

1.Loan Disbursement Mechanics.
(a)Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Note, Holder agrees to make one or more Advances to the Company from time to time prior to December 31, 2022 in a maximum aggregate amount not to exceed One Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) (the “Commitment”). Prior to the Maturity Date, principal amount prepaid by the Company may be reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Note.
(b)Mechanics of Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Note, upon the request of the Company from time to time after the date hereof, Holder shall make Advances to the Company. Each request for an Advance shall be made upon the written request of the Company to Holder given at least ten (10) business days prior to the date of the requested Advance (each a “Borrowing Notice”). Each Borrowing Notice from the Company shall (i) specify the amount of the requested Advance, (ii) specify the date of the disbursement of the Advance (“Borrowing Date”), (iii) reasonably describe the use of the proceeds for such Advance, and (iv) be accompanied by an officer’s certificate certifying that (x) no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing under this Note, (y) there are no events or circumstances of any kind that could reasonably be expected to have material adverse effect on the business, assets (including intangible assets), liabilities, financial condition, property, prospects or results of operations of the Company (“Material Adverse Effect”), and (z) the Company is in compliance with and has complied with all of the covenants contained herein. So long as the Company has complied with the terms and conditions hereof, the Holder shall, no later than the end of business day on the applicable Borrowing Date, transfer to the Company an amount equal to the requested Advance set forth in the applicable Borrowing Notice, in immediately available funds.
(c)Conditions to Each Advance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) Holder shall only make Advances in integral multiples of $1,000,000; (ii) Holder shall not be
1




required to make Advances from and after December 31, 2022; (iii) Holder shall not be required to make Advances in excess of $20,000,000 in any calendar quarter; (v) Holder shall not be required to make Advances more frequently than once every thirty (30) days during the term of this Note; (vi) the aggregate outstanding amount of all Advances shall not exceed the Commitment; and (vii) no Advances may be made after the occurrence or during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder. Further, Holder may charge Company a one-time administrative fee equal to .5% of each Advance made hereunder, which administrative fee shall be paid either concurrently with the Advance or, at Holder’s option, may be deducted from the Advance.
(d)Schedule of Advances and Payments. The principal amount of each Advance made by Holder to the Company hereunder, the date on which each such Advance is made, the amount of any prepayment or partial prepayment of any such Advance, and the outstanding principal amount of each such Advance, shall be specified in Schedule A attached hereto. The Company hereby authorizes Holder to record, endorse and update Schedule A hereto from time to time to reflect updated information relating to the Advances made by Holder to the Company hereunder and any prepayments or partial prepayments of the outstanding principal amounts of any such Advances. The information reflected in any such updated version of Schedule A delivered by Holder to the Company shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information recorded, provided, however, that the failure of Holder to update the information specified in Schedule A in connection with the making by Holder to the Company of any Advance or the payment or partial prepayment by the Company of any such Advance shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder to repay the principal amount of any such Advance (and any interest unpaid having accrued thereon) in accordance with the terms of this Note.
2.Interest; Payment.
(a)Interest. The outstanding principal amount of each Advance made by Holder to the Company pursuant to this Note shall bear interest from and including the date such Advance is made to but excluding the date such Advance is paid in full at a per annum rate equal to five and one-half percent (5.50%), compounded annually, computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be.
(b)Payment. Beginning one (1) year after the first Advance, the Company shall pay Holder all accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Advance on December 15 of each calendar year until the Maturity Date.
(c)Application of Payment. All payments on this Note shall, except if an uncured Event of Default has occurred, in which event the payments shall be applied as determined by Holder in its sole discretion, be applied at any time and from time to time and in the following order: (i) the payment of accrued but unpaid interest hereon, and (ii) the payment of all or any portion of the principal balance then outstanding hereunder, in either the direct or inverse order of maturity. For the avoidance of doubt, Holder and Company acknowledge and agree that payments on this Note, whether principal or interest, may only be made in cash (i.e. this Note is not a payment in kind (PIK) instrument).
(d)Default Interest. All amounts of principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest due and payable with respect to any Advance not paid when due, whether upon demand of Holder or upon the acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 4 hereof, shall, if not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice from Holder, bear interest (“Default Interest”) from the date due until the date paid in full at an overdue rate per annum equal to eleven and three-quarters percent (11.75%). Such Default Interest shall be payable on demand and such increased rate of interest shall continue until such delinquent amount(s), with interest thereon at such increased rate, shall have been paid in full. Acceptance of any delinquent payments by Holder shall not waive or affect any prior demand or default.
2




3.Maturity Date. The unpaid principal of each Advance, and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on December 31, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Indenture dated on or about December 21, 2016, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Existing Notes Indenture”), the Company may prepay the outstanding amount of any Advance (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) at any time, either in whole or in part, without premium or penalty and without the prior consent of Holder.
4.Events of Default. The entire aggregate principal amount of the Advances made by Holder pursuant to this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is subject to prepayment in whole or in part upon any of the following events (each an “Event of Default”):
(a)any indebtedness under this Note is not paid when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise and such default is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice from Holder;
(b)default shall occur in the observance or performance of any covenant, obligation or agreement of the Company under this Note and such default shall continue uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after receiving written notice of such default;
(c)any final judgment or judgments for the payment of money aggregating in excess of $20,000,000 shall be rendered against the Company, to the extent such judgments are not covered under applicable insurance policies held by Company and which judgments are not, within thirty (30) days after the entry thereof, bonded, discharged or stayed pending appeal, or are not discharged within thirty (30) days after the expiration of such stay;
(d)an Event of Default as defined in and under the Indenture;
(e)the Company shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator of itself or any part of its property, (ii) become subject to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or liquidator for itself or any part of its property, (iii) make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, (iv) fail generally or admit in writing to its inability to pay its debts as they become due, (v) institute any proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally, or file a petition or answer seeking reorganization or an arrangement with creditors to take advantage of any insolvency law, or file an answer admitting the material allegations of a bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency petition filed against it, or (vi) become subject to any involuntary proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, insolvency or other similar law affecting the rights of creditors generally, which proceedings are not, within 30 days after the entry thereof, bonded, discharged or stayed pending appeal, or are not discharged within 30 days after the expiration of such stay, or have an order for relief entered against it in any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code; or
(f)the Company shall (i) liquidate, wind up or dissolve (or suffer any liquidation, wind-up or dissolution) or (ii) suspend its operations other than in the ordinary course of business.
If any Event of Default shall occur for any reason, whether voluntary or involuntary, and be continuing, Holder may, upon notice or demand, declare the outstanding indebtedness under this Note to be due and payable, whereupon the outstanding indebtedness under this Note shall be and become immediately due and payable, and the Company shall immediately pay to Holder all such indebtedness. Upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Company under the United States Bankruptcy Code, then all indebtedness under this Note shall automatically be due immediately without notice of any kind. The Company agrees to pay Holder all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Holder in any effort to collect indebtedness under this Note, including attorneys’ fees. Holder shall also have any other rights that Holder may have been afforded under any contract or
3




agreement at any time and any other rights which Holder may have pursuant to applicable law. Holder may exercise any and all of its remedies under this Note contemporaneously or separately from the exercise of any other remedies hereunder or under applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any payment obligation of the Company pursuant to this Section 4 is subject to Section 5.
5.Subordination.
(a)Agreement of Subordination. The Company and Holder each covenant and agree that this Note shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Section 5; and each holder of this Note, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions.

(b)Payment to Holders.
(i)No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on this Note if (A) a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or other obligations due on any Senior Debt occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Senior Debt for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument evidencing such Senior Debt) (including a default set forth in Sections 6.01(a) and 6.01(b) of each indenture pursuant to which the Senior Debt was issued) (a “Payment Default”), unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist or the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt or (B) the Company’s receipt of a Payment Blockage Notice (as defined in the Existing Notes Indenture) (a “Non-Payment Default”).
(ii)In the case of a Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of this Note upon the earlier of the date upon which the Payment Default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or unless this Section 5 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at such time. In the case of a Non-Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the New Notes upon the earlier of (A) the date upon which the Non-Payment Default is cured or waived, (B) the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, (C) the date that is 179 days after the date on which such Payment Blockage Notice is received by the Company, and (D) the date such Payment Blockage Notice is rescinded.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or other proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, or otherwise, all
4




amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Debt shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, or payment thereof in accordance with its terms provided for in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, before any payment is made on account of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on the Note; and upon any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which Holder would be entitled, except for the provision of this Section 5, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, or by Holder if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Debt (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order), or to the trustee or trustees under the indenture pursuant to which the Senior Debt was issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Debt, before any payment or distribution or provision therefor is made to Holder.
(iv)For purposes of this Section 5, the words, “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Section 5 with respect to this Note to the payment of all Senior Debt which may at the time be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Debt is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Debt are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 5(b) unless such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, shall constitute an Event of Default in Section 4.
(v)In the event of the acceleration of this Note because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to Holder in respect of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on this Note until all Senior Debt has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt or such acceleration is rescinded by Holder.
(vi)In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by Holder (or any agent, trustee or other representative thereof) before all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Debt, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Debt.

(c)Subrogation of this Note.
(i)Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the rights of Holder shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5 (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as this Note is subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal and premium, if any, on this Note shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Debt of any cash, property or securities to which Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 5, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt by Holder, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Debt; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of Holder pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Section 5, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Debt shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of this Note. It is understood that the provisions of this Section 5 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of Holder, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Debt, on the other hand.
(ii)Nothing contained in this Section 5 or elsewhere in this Note is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, and Holder, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to Holder the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of Holder and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Debt, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Note, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 5 of the holders of Senior Debt in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 5, Holder shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to Holder, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 5.
(d)Until the repayment in full of all Senior Debt, neither the Maturity Date nor this Section 5 may be amended in a manner adverse to the holders of Senior Debt without the consent of the Company, Holder and the trustee of the Senior Debt (with the consent of holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Senior Debt).

THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED PROMISSORY NOTE
[_], 2021
Culver City, California
WHEREAS, NantHealth, Inc. (formerly Nant Health, LLC), a Delaware corporation, with offices at 9920 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City, California 90232 (the “Company”), entered into a demand promissory note dated January 4, 2016 (the “Original Note”) in favor of Nant Capital, LLC, with offices at 9922 Jefferson Boulevard, Culver City, California 90232 (“Holder”);
WHEREAS, the Company and Holder amended and restated the Original Note on May 9, 2016, and on December 15, 2016 (the “Second Restated Note”).
WHEREAS, the Company and Holder wish to amend and restate the Second Restated Note with the terms of this Third Amended and Restated Promissory Note (this “Note”).
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the Company and Holder do hereby (a) amend, restate and replace the Second Restated Note in its entirety and (b) otherwise agree as follows:
1.Principal and Interest. For value received, the Company promises to pay to the order of Holder, or to the order of Holder’s registered assigns, the principal amount of each advance (each, an “Advance” and, collectively, the “Advances”) made by Holder to the Company pursuant to this Note, in immediately available funds, at the times and in the manner set forth herein.
(a)Advances. The principal amount of each Advance made by Holder to the Company hereunder, the date on which each such Advance is made, the amount of any prepayment or partial prepayment of any such Advance, and the outstanding principal amount of each such Advance, shall be specified in Schedule A attached hereto. Holder shall be entitled to update Schedule A hereto from time to time to reflect updated information relating to the Advances made by Holder to the Company hereunder and any prepayments or partial prepayments of the outstanding principal amounts of any such Advances. The information reflected in any such updated version of Schedule A delivered by Holder to the Company shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information recorded, provided, however, that the failure of Holder to update the information specified in Schedule A in connection with the making by Holder to the Company of any Advance or the payment or partial prepayment by the Company of any such Advance shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder to repay the principal amount of any such Advance (and any interest unpaid having accrued thereon) in accordance with the terms of this Note.
(b)Interest. The outstanding principal amount of each Advance made by Holder to the Company pursuant to this Note shall bear interest from and including the date such Advance is made to but excluding the date such Advance is paid in full at a per annum rate equal to five percent (5%), compounded annually and computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. All amounts of principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest due and payable with respect to any Advance not paid when due, whether upon demand of Holder or upon the acceleration thereof pursuant to Section 2 hereof, shall bear interest (“Default Interest”) from the date due until the date paid in full at an overdue rate per annum equal to seven percent (7%). Such Default Interest shall be payable on demand and such and such increased rate of interest shall continue until such delinquent amount(s), with interest thereon at
1


such increased rate, shall have been paid in full. Acceptance of any delinquent payments by Holder shall not waive or affect any prior demand or default.
(c)Maturity Date. The unpaid principal of each Advance, and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on October 1, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”). Subject to Section 3, the Company may prepay the outstanding amount of any Advance (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) at any time, either in whole or in part, without premium or penalty and without the prior consent of Holder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for each and every repayment made hereunder by the Company, Holder shall have the option (but not the obligation) to require that the Company repay any such amount in cash, in Series A-2 Units of NantOmics, LLC (with each Series A-2 Unit valued at $1.484) or in shares of common stock of the Company issued pursuant to a valid exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (with each share valued at $18.61255), or any combination of the foregoing, in each case at the sole discretion of Holder and, in the case of Series A-2 Units of NantOmics, LLC, solely to the extent the Company then holds Series A¬2 Units of NantOmics, LLC.
2.Events of Default. The entire aggregate principal amount of the Advances made by Holder pursuant to this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is subject to prepayment in whole or in part upon the initiation of any bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership or reorganization by or against the Company, or a general assignment of assets by the Company for the benefit of creditors (each, an “Event of Default”). Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, all amounts outstanding hereunder in respect of the principal amount of any Advance and all unpaid interest having accrued thereon, shall be immediately due and payable without notice to or demand on the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any payment obligation of the Company pursuant to this Section 2 is subject to Section 3.
3.Subordination.
(a)Agreement of Subordination. The Company and the Holder each covenant and agree that the Note shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Section 3; and each holder of the Note, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Note shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt (as defined below), whether outstanding at the date of this Note or thereafter incurred. For purposes of the Note, “Senior Debt” shall mean the principal of, premium, if any, interest (including all interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-petition interest is allowable as a claim in any such proceeding), and all fees, costs, expenses and other amounts accrued or due on or in connection with (i) the Company’s Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated on or about December 21, 2016, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Existing Notes Indenture”) and (ii) the Company’s Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated on or about [_], 2021, by and among the Company, NaviNet, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association, in each case whether outstanding on the date of this Note or thereafter created, incurred, assumed, guaranteed or in effect guaranteed by the Company (including all deferrals, renewals, extensions or refundings of, or amendments, modifications or supplements to, the foregoing).
(b)Payments to Holders.
(i)No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Note if (A) a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest or other obligations due on any
2

(ii)In the case of a Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Note upon the earlier of the date upon which the Payment Default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or unless this Section 3 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at such time. In the case of a Non-Payment Default, the Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the New Notes upon the earlier of (A) the date upon which the Non-Payment Default is cured or waived, (B) the obligations in respect of the Senior Debt are paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt, (C) the date that is 179 days after the date on which such Payment Blockage Notice is received by the Company, and (D) the date such Payment Blockage Notice is rescinded.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or other proceedings, or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company, or otherwise, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Debt shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, or payment thereof in accordance with its terms provided for in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, before any payment is made on account of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on the Note; and upon any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holder would be entitled, except for the provision of this Section 3, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holder if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Debt (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Debt held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order), or to the trustee or trustees under the indenture pursuant to which the Senior Debt was issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Debt, before any payment or distribution or provision therefor is made to the Holder.
(iv)For purposes of this Section 3, the words, “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Section 3 with respect to the Note to the payment of all Senior Debt which may at the time be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Debt is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Debt are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or
3


substantially as an entirety, to another corporation shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 3(b) unless such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, shall constitute an Event of Default in Section 2.
(v)In the event of the acceleration of the Note because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Holder in respect of the principal of, interest or premium, if any, on the Note until all Senior Debt has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Debt or such acceleration is rescinded by the Holder.
(vi)In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Holder (or any agent, trustee or other representative thereof) before all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Debt, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Debt may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Debt in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Debt, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Debt.
(c)Subrogation of the Note.
(i)Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Debt, the rights of the Holder shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3 (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Note is subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal and premium, if any, on the Note shall be paid in full; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Debt of any cash, property or securities to which the Holder would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 3, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3, to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt by the Holder, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and the Holder, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Debt; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the Holder pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Section 3, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Debt shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of the Note. It is understood that the provisions of this Section 3 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holder, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Debt, on the other hand.
(ii)Nothing contained in this Section 3 or elsewhere in this Note is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Debt, and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holder the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Debt, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Holder from exercising all remedies
4


otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under this Note, subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 3 of the holders of Senior Debt in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
(iii)Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 3, the Holder shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Holder, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of Senior Debt and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 3.
(d)Until the repayment in full of all Senior Debt, neither the Maturity Date nor this Section 3 may be amended in a manner adverse to the holders of Senior Debt without the consent of the Company, the Holder and the trustee of the Senior Debt (with the consent of holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Senior Debt).

(i) Method of Payment. The Company will pay all cash amounts due on any Series 1 Preferred Stock by check issued in the name of the Holder thereof; provided, however, that if such Holder has delivered to the Company, no later than the time set forth in the next sentence, a written request to receive payment by wire transfer to an account of such Holder within the United States, then the Company will pay all such cash amounts by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account.

The Company will, or will retain another Person (who may be the Transfer Agent) to act as registrar who will, keep a record (the “Register”) of the names and addresses of the Holders, the number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock held by each Holder and the transfer, exchange, repurchase and conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock. Absent manifest error, the entries in the Register will be conclusive, and the Company and the Transfer Agent may treat each Person whose name is recorded as a Holder in the Register as a Holder for all purposes. The Register will be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form reasonably promptly. The Company will promptly provide a copy of the Register to any Holder upon its request.

(i) Partial Conversions. If only a portion of a Holder’s Series 1 Preferred Stock represented by a Certificate (such Certificate being referred to as the “old Certificate” for purposes of this Section 3(h)(i)) is to be converted pursuant to Section 10, then, as soon as reasonably practicable after such Certificate is surrendered for such conversion, the Company will cause such Certificate to be exchanged for (1) one or more Certificates that each represent a whole number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and, in the aggregate, represent a total number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock represented by such old Certificate that are not to be so converted or repurchased, as applicable, and deliver such Certificate(s) to such Holder; and (2) a Certificate representing a whole number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock represented by such old Certificate that are to be so converted or repurchased, as applicable, which Certificate will be converted or repurchased, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Designations.
- 8 -



(ii) Cancellation of Series 1 Preferred Stock that Is Converted. If a Holder’s Series 1 Preferred Stock represented by a Certificate (or any portion thereof that has not theretofore been exchanged pursuant to Section 3(h)(i)) (such Certificate being referred to as the “old Certificate” for purposes of this Section 3(h)(ii)) is to be converted pursuant to Section 10, then, promptly after the later of the time such Series 1 Preferred Stock is deemed to cease to be outstanding pursuant to Section 3(n) and the time such Certificate is surrendered for such conversion or repurchase, as applicable, (A) such Certificate will be cancelled pursuant to Section 3(l); and (B) in the case of a partial conversion, the Company will issue, execute and deliver to such Holder, and cause the Transfer Agent to countersign, one or more Certificates that (x) each represent a whole number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and, in the aggregate, represent a total number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock represented by such old Certificate that are not to be so converted; (y) are registered in the name of such Holder; and (z) bear each legend, if any, required by Section 3(f).
(i)Status of Retired Shares. Upon any share of Series 1 Preferred Stock ceasing to be outstanding following its issuance, such share will be deemed to be retired and to resume the status of an authorized and unissued share of preferred stock of the Company, and such share cannot thereafter be reissued as Series 1 Preferred Stock.

(j)Replacement Certificates. If a Holder of any Series 1 Preferred Stock claims that the Certificate(s) representing such Series 1 Preferred Stock have been mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, then the Company will issue, execute and deliver, and cause the Transfer Agent to countersign, in each case in accordance with Section 3(c), a replacement Certificate representing such Series 1 Preferred Stock upon surrender to the Company or the Transfer Agent of such mutilated Certificate, or upon delivery to the Company or the Transfer Agent of evidence of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking reasonably satisfactory to the Transfer Agent and the Company. In the case of a lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Certificate representing any Series 1 Preferred Stock, the Company and the Transfer Agent may require the Holder thereof to provide such security or indemnity that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Transfer Agent to protect the Company and the Transfer Agent from any loss that any of them may suffer if such Certificate is replaced.

Every replacement Certificate representing Series 1 Preferred Stock issued pursuant to this Section 3(j) will, upon such replacement, be deemed to represent outstanding Series 1 Preferred Stock, entitled to all of the benefits of this Certificate of Designations equally and ratably with all other Series 1 Preferred Stock then outstanding.
(k)Registered Holders. Only the Holder of any Series 1 Preferred Stock will have rights under this Certificate of Designations as the owner of such Series 1 Preferred Stock.

(l)Cancellation. The Company may at any time deliver Series 1 Preferred Stock to the Transfer Agent for cancellation. The Company will cause the Transfer Agent to promptly
- 9 -



cancel all shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock so surrendered to it in accordance with its customary procedures.

(m)Shares Held by the Company or its Affiliates. Without limiting the generality of Section 3(n), in determining whether the Holders of the required number of outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock owned by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will be deemed not to be outstanding.

(n)Outstanding Shares.

i.Generally. The shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that are outstanding at any time will be deemed to be those shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that, at such time, have been duly issued by the Company and countersigned by the Transfer Agent, excluding those shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that have theretofore been (1) cancelled by the Transfer Agent or delivered to the Transfer Agent for cancellation in accordance with Section 3(l); (2) paid in full upon their conversion to Common Stock in accordance with this Certificate of Designations; or (3) deemed to cease to be outstanding to the extent provided in, and subject to, this Section 3(n).
ii.Replaced Certificates. If any Certificate representing any share of Series 1 Preferred Stock is replaced pursuant to Section 3(j), then such shares will cease to be outstanding at the time of such replacement, unless the Transfer Agent and the Company receive proof reasonably satisfactory to them that such share is held by a “bona fide purchaser” under applicable law.
iii.Shares to Be Converted. If any Series 1 Preferred Stock is to be converted, then, at the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion (unless there occurs a default in the delivery of the Conversion Consideration due pursuant to Section 10 upon such conversion): (1) such Series 1 Preferred Stock will be deemed to cease to be outstanding; and (2) the rights of the Holders of such Series 1 Preferred Stock, as such, will terminate with respect to such Series 1 Preferred Stock, other than the right to receive such Conversion Consideration as provided in Section 10.
(o)Notations and Exchanges. Without limiting any rights of Holders pursuant to Section 9, if any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Certificate of Incorporation or this Certificate of Designations changes the terms of any Series 1 Preferred Stock, then the Company may, in its discretion, require the Holder of the Certificate representing such Series 1 Preferred Stock to deliver such Certificate to the Transfer Agent so that the Transfer Agent may place an appropriate notation prepared by the Company on such Certificate and return such Certificate to such Holder. Alternatively, at its discretion, the Company may, in exchange for such Series 1 Preferred Stock, issue, execute and deliver, and cause the Transfer Agent to countersign, in each case in accordance with Section 3(c), a new Certificate representing such Series 1 Preferred Stock that reflects the changed terms. The failure to make any appropriate notation or issue a
- 10 -



new Certificate representing any Series 1 Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 3(o) will not impair or affect the validity of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Section 4.Ranking. The Series 1 Preferred Stock will rank (a) senior to (i) Dividend Junior Stock with respect to the payment of dividends; and (ii) Liquidation Junior Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up; (b) equally with (i) Dividend Parity Stock with respect to the payment of dividends; and (ii) Liquidation Parity Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up; and (c) junior to (i) Dividend Senior Stock with respect to the payment of dividends; and (ii) Liquidation Senior Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up.
Section 5.Dividends.
(a)Participating Dividends.
(i) Generally. Subject to Section 5(a)(ii), no dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock (whether in cash, securities or other property, or any combination of the foregoing) will be declared, paid or set aside for payment on the Common Stock unless, at such time, an equivalent dividend or distribution is declared, paid or set aside for payment, respectively, on the Series 1 Preferred Stock (such a dividend or distribution on the Series 1 Preferred Stock, a “Participating Dividend,” and such corresponding dividend or distribution on the Common Stock, the “Common Stock Participating Dividend”), such that (1) the Record Date and the payment date for such Participating Dividend occur on the same dates as the Record Date and payment date, respectively, for such Common Stock Participating Dividend and (2) the kind and amount of consideration payable per share of Series 1 Preferred Stock in such Participating Dividend is the same kind and amount of consideration that would be payable in the Common Stock Participating Dividend in respect of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable (determined in accordance with Section 10 but without regard to Section 10(c)(ii) and Section 10(f)) in respect of one (1) share of Series 1 Preferred Stock that is converted pursuant to an Optional Conversion with a Conversion Date occurring on such Record Date (subject to the same arrangements, if any, in such Common Stock Participating Dividend not to issue or deliver a fractional portion of any security or other property, but with such arrangement applying separately to each Holder and computed based on the total number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock held by such Holder on such Record Date).
(ii) Common Stock Change Events and Stock Splits, Dividends and Combinations. Section 5(a)(i) will not apply to, and no Participating Dividend will be required to be declared or paid in respect of, a Common Stock Change Event, or an event for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required pursuant to Section 10(d) or as to which Section 10(g) will apply.
(iii) Treatment of Participating Dividends Upon Conversion. If the Conversion Date of any share of Series 1 Preferred Stock is after a Record Date for a declared Participating Dividend on the Series 1 Preferred Stock and on or before the next Dividend Payment Date, then the Holder of such share of Series 1 Preferred Stock at the Close of Business on such Record Date will be entitled, notwithstanding the related conversion, to receive, on or, at the Company’s
- 11 -



election, before such Dividend Payment Date, such declared Participating Dividend on such share of Series 1 Preferred Stock.
(b)Limitations on Participating Dividends.

(i) Generally. So long as any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock remain outstanding, if all dividends on all outstanding shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock have not been declared and paid in full, or declared and sufficient funds set aside therefor, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, (x) declare or pay dividends with respect to, or make any distributions on, or directly or indirectly, redeem, purchase or acquire any of its Dividend Junior Stock or (y) directly or indirectly, redeem, purchase or acquire any of the Series 1 Preferred Stock or any Dividend Parity Stock, other than, in each case, (i) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in each case in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, (ii) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (iii) conversions or exchanges of Dividend Junior Stock into or for Dividend Junior Stock or conversions or exchanges of Series 1 Preferred Stock or Dividend Parity Stock into or for Dividend Junior Stock or Dividend Parity Stock, and (iv) any purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged. If Participating Dividends for any Dividend Payment Date are not paid in full, or declared and sufficient funds set aside therefor on the shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock and there are issued and outstanding shares of Dividend Parity Stock with the same Dividend Payment Date (or, in the case of Dividend Parity Stock having a different dividend payment date, for a dividend payment date with respect to a dividend period during which such Dividend Payment Date falls), then all dividends declared on shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock and such Dividend Parity Stock on such date or dates, as the case may be, shall be declared pro rata so that the respective amounts of such dividends shall bear the same ratio to each other as full dividends per share payable on the shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock and all such Dividend Parity Stock otherwise payable on such Dividend Payment Date (or, in the case of Dividend Parity Stock having a different dividend payment date, for a dividend payment date with respect to a dividend period during which such Dividend Payment Date falls) (subject to such dividends on such Dividend Parity Stock having been declared by the Board of Directors out of legally available funds and including, in the case of any such Dividend Parity Stock that bear cumulative dividends, all accrued but unpaid dividends) bear to each other.
(ii) Certain Non-Cash Distributions. For so long as any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company will not declare, pay or set aside for payment any Participating Dividend or any Common Stock Participating Dividend that, after consultation with the Holders, would cause or would be reasonably likely to cause any Holder and its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), in each case together with any other Persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with such Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act
- 12 -



(including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) to (i) violate the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, (ii) be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or (iii) “beneficially own” 10% or more of any class of equity securities for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.
Section 6.Rights Upon Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
(a)Generally. If the Company liquidates, dissolves or winds up, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, then, subject to the rights of any of the Company’s creditors or holders of any outstanding Liquidation Senior Stock, each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will entitle the Holder thereof to receive payment for the greater of the amounts set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) below out of the Company’s assets or funds legally available for distribution to the Company’s stockholders, before any such assets or funds are distributed to, or set aside for the benefit of, any Liquidation Junior Stock:

(i) the Liquidation Preference per share of Series 1 Preferred Stock; and
(ii) the amount such Holder would have received in respect of the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of such share of Series 1 Preferred Stock in connection with an Optional Conversion assuming the Conversion Date of such conversion occurs on the date of such payment.
Upon payment of such amount in full on the outstanding Series 1 Preferred Stock, Holders of the Series 1 Preferred Stock will have no rights to the Company’s remaining assets or funds, if any. If such assets or funds are insufficient to fully pay such amount on all outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable in respect of all outstanding shares of Liquidation Parity Stock, if any, then, subject to the rights of any of the Company’s creditors or holders of any outstanding Liquidation Senior Stock, such assets or funds will be distributed ratably on the outstanding shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and Liquidation Parity Stock in proportion to the full respective distributions to which such shares would otherwise be entitled.
(b)Certain Business Combination Transactions Not a Liquidation. For purposes of Section 6(a), the Company’s consolidation or combination with, or merger with or into, or the sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets (other than a sale, lease or other transfer in connection with the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to, another Person will not, in itself, constitute the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up, even if, in connection therewith, the Series 1 Preferred Stock is converted into, or is exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other property, or any combination of the foregoing.

Section 7.No Redemption. The Company does not have the right to redeem the Series 1 Preferred Stock at its election.
Section 8.Reserved.
- 13 -



Section 9.Voting Rights.
(a)Generally. The Series 1 Preferred Stock will have no voting rights except as set forth in this Section 9 or as provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or required by applicable law.
(b)Rights with Respect to Specified Matters. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9(b), while any Series 1 Preferred Stock is outstanding, each following event will require, and cannot be effected without, the affirmative vote or consent of Holders representing at least two thirds of the outstanding voting power of the Series 1 Preferred Stock:

(i) any amendment, modification or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or this Certificate of Designations that adversely affects the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series 1 Preferred Stock; or
(ii) the Company’s consolidation or combination with, or merger with or into, another Person, or any binding or statutory share exchange or reclassification involving the Series 1 Preferred Stock, in each case unless:
(1)the Series 1 Preferred Stock either (x) remains outstanding after such consolidation, combination, merger, share exchange or reclassification; or (y) is converted or reclassified into, or is exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, preference securities of the continuing, resulting or surviving Person of such consolidation, combination, merger, share exchange or reclassification, or the parent thereof;
(2)the Series 1 Preferred Stock that remains outstanding or such preference securities, as applicable, have rights, preferences and voting powers that, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable to the Holders or the holders thereof, as applicable, than the rights, preferences and voting powers, taken as a whole, of the Series 1 Preferred Stock immediately before the consummation of such consolidation, combination, merger, share exchange or reclassification; and
(3)the issuer of the Series 1 Preferred Stock that remains outstanding or such preference securities, as applicable, is a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia that, if not the Company, will succeed to the Company under this Certificate of Designations and the Series 1 Preferred Stock;
provided, however, that (x) a consolidation, combination, merger, share exchange or reclassification that satisfies the requirements of clauses (1), (2) and (3) of Section 9(b)(ii) will not require any vote or consent pursuant to Section 9(b)(i); and (y) each of the following will be deemed not to adversely affect the rights, preferences or voting powers of the Series 1 Preferred Stock (or cause any of the rights, preferences or voting
- 14 -



powers of any such preference securities to be “materially less favorable” for purposes of Section 9(b)(ii)(2)):
(I)    any increase in the number of the authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s undesignated preferred stock;
(II)    the creation and issuance, or increase in the authorized or issued number, of any class or series of stock that is neither Dividend Senior Stock nor Liquidation Senior Stock; and
(III)    the application of Section 10(g), including the execution and delivery of any supplemental instruments pursuant to Section 10(g)(iii) solely to give effect to such provision.
(c)Procedures for Voting and Consents. Each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter on which the Holders of the Series 1 Preferred Stock are entitled to vote. A consent or affirmative vote of the Holders pursuant to Section 9 may be given or obtained either in writing without a meeting or in person or by proxy at a regular annual meeting or a special meeting of stockholders.

Section 10.Conversion At the Option of the Holders.
(a)Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of this Section 10, Holders will have the right to submit all, or any whole number of shares that is less than all, of their shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock for conversion in accordance with the provision of this Certificate of Designations (an “Optional Conversion”) at any time and from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, in no event will any Holder be entitled to convert a number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock that is not a whole number.

(b)Conversion Procedures.

(i) Requirements to Exercise Conversion Right. To convert any share of Series 1 Preferred Stock pursuant to an Optional Conversion, the Holder of such share must (w) complete, manually sign and deliver to the Company a Conversion Notice; (x) deliver any Physical Certificate representing such Series 1 Preferred Stock to the Company (at which time, subject to Section 10(f)(v), such Optional Conversion will become irrevocable); (y) furnish any endorsements and transfer documents that the Company may reasonably require; and (z) if applicable, pay any documentary or other taxes as pursuant to Section 11(d).
(ii) When Holders Become Stockholders of Record of Common Stock Upon Conversion. The Person in whose name any share of Common Stock is issuable upon conversion of any Series 1 Preferred Stock will be deemed to become the holder of record of such share as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(c)Settlement upon Conversion
.
- 15 -



(i) Generally. Subject to this Section 10(c), the consideration due upon settlement of the conversion of each share of Series 1 Preferred Stock will consist of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the Close of Business on the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(ii) Payment of Cash in Lieu of Fractional Shares. In lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise due upon conversion of any Series 1 Preferred Stock, the Company will pay cash based on the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date for such conversion (or, if such Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the immediately preceding Trading Day).
(iii) Delivery of Conversion Consideration. The Company will pay or deliver, as applicable, the Conversion Consideration due upon conversion of any Series 1 Preferred Stock on or before the second (2nd) Business Day immediately after the Conversion Date for such conversion.
(d)Conversion Rate Adjustments.

(i) Events Requiring an Adjustment to the Conversion Rate. From and after the initial issuance of any shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock the Conversion Rate will be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(1)Stock Dividends, Splits and Combinations. If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or if the Company effects a stock split or a stock combination of the Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which Section 10(g) will apply), then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula:
ex14_12.jpg
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 stock split or stock combination, as applicable;
CR1    =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or 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
- 16 -



effective date, as applicable, without giving effect to such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination; and
OS1    =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination.
Any adjustment made under this Section 10(d)(i)(1) 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, distribution, stock split or stock combination of the type described in this Section 10(d)(i)(1) is declared or announced, but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Rate will be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors, or any officer acting pursuant to authority conferred by the Board of Directors, determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to effect such stock split or stock combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had such dividend, distribution, stock split or stock combination not been declared or announced.
(2)Rights, Options and Warrants. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling such holders, for a period of not more than 45 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date of announcement of such issuance, then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:
image_11a.jpg
where:
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;
OS    =    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
- 17 -



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 per share 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 10(d)(i)(2) shall 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 shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased 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 no such rights, options or warrants are exercised prior to their expiration, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to 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 10(d)(i)(2), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately before the date the distribution of such rights, options or warrants is announced, and in determining the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there will be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if not cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(3)Reserved.
(4)Reserved.
(5)Tender Offers or Exchange Offers. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock (other than odd-lot tender offers), 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 (such last date,
- 18 -



the “Expiration Date” and such 10 Trading Day period, the “Valuation Period”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
image_21a.jpg
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 date such tender or exchange offer expires;
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 date such tender or exchange offer expires;
AC    =    the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) 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 date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
OS1    =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
SP    =    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 date such tender or exchange offer expires.
provided, however, that the Conversion Rate will in no event be adjusted down pursuant to this Section 10(d)(i)(5), except to the extent provided in the immediately following paragraph. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10(d)(i)(5), if the Conversion Date for any share of Series 1 Preferred Stock occurs during the Valuation Period for such tender or exchange offer, then, solely for purposes of determining the consideration due in respect of such conversion, such Valuation Period will be deemed to consist of the Trading Days
- 19 -



occurring in the period from, and including, the Trading Day immediately after the Expiration Date to, and including, such Conversion Date.
To the extent such tender or exchange offer is announced but not consummated (including as a result of being precluded from consummating such tender or exchange offer under applicable law), or any purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock in such tender or exchange offer are rescinded, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the purchases or exchanges of shares of Common Stock, if any, actually made, and not rescinded, in such tender or exchange offer.
(ii) Determination of the Number of Outstanding Shares of Common Stock. For purposes of Section 10(d)(i), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time will (1) include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock; and (2) exclude shares of Common Stock held in the Company’s treasury (unless the Company pays any dividend or makes any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in its treasury).
(iii) Calculations. All calculations with respect to the Conversion Rate and adjustments thereto will be made to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock (with 5/100,000ths rounded upward).
(iv) Notice of Conversion Rate Adjustments. Upon the effectiveness of any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 10(d), the Company will promptly send notice to the Holders containing (1) a brief description of the transaction or other event on account of which such adjustment was made; (2) the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before and after such adjustment; and (3) the effective time of such adjustment.
(e)Voluntary Conversion Rate Increases.

(i) Generally. To the extent permitted by law and applicable stock exchange rules, the Company, from time to time, may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate by any amount if (1) the Board of Directors determines that such increase is in the Company’s best interest or that such increase is advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax imposed on holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock as a result of any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) of Common Stock or any similar event; (2) such increase is in effect for a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days; and (3) such increase is irrevocable during such period.
(ii) Notice of Voluntary Increase. If the Board of Directors determines to increase the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 10(e), then, no later than the first Business Day of the related twenty (20) Business Day period referred to in Section 10(e)(i), the Company will send notice to each Holder of such increase to the Conversion Rate, the amount thereof and the period during which such increase will be in effect.

(f)Restriction on Conversions
.
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, no Holder will be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock, and no conversion of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock shall take place, to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt (or conversion) would cause such Holder and its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), in each case together with any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with such Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) to beneficially own shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted Series 1 Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Holder, its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), its associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) or any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with any of the foregoing Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member) and (ii) exercise, conversion or exchange of the unexercised, unconverted or unexchanged portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on exercise, conversion or exchange analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder, its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act), its associates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) or any other persons whose beneficial ownership would be aggregated with any of the foregoing Person for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, any “group” of which such Person is a member). Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this provision, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any purported delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock held by any converting Holder shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in such converting Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Solely for the purpose of this Section 10(f), in the case of any global certificates, “Holder” shall mean a person that holds a beneficial interest in shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock and not the applicable depository or its nominee.
(ii) To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 10(f) applies, the determination of whether any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock are convertible (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and of which shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and, unless otherwise indicated in connection with the Conversion Notice, the submission of a Conversion Notice shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock may be converted (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and which shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership
- 21 -



Limitation. To ensure compliance with this restriction, unless otherwise indicated in connection with the Conversion Notice, the Holder shall be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Conversion Notice that such Conversion Notice has not violated the restrictions set forth in this Section 10(f) and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any groupstatus as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
(iii) For purposes of this Section 10(f), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent to such Holder setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the exercise, conversion or exchange of securities of the Company, including the Series 1 Preferred Stock, by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.
(iv) The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” with respect to any Holder shall be 9.9% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock held by the Holder, or such less amount as such Holder shall specify in written notice delivered to the Company. Any Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may elect a Beneficial Ownership Limitation as to such Holder (but not as to any other that is less than or equal to 9.9%, which election will be effective as of the date specified in such notice, which shall be not earlier than (i) the date such notice is delivered to the Company in the event such notice decreases the Beneficial Ownership Limitation applicable to such Holder, and (ii) 61 days after the date such notice is delivered to the Company in all other cases.
(v) Any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion for which shares of Common Stock are not delivered due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall not be extinguished and, such Holder may either:
(1)request return of the shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock surrendered by such Holder for conversion, after which the Company shall deliver such shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock to such Holder within two Trading Days after receipt of such request; or
(2)certify to the Company that the person (or persons) receiving shares of Common Stock upon conversion is not, and would not, as a result of such conversion, become the beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time in excess of the applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation, after which the Company shall cause to be delivered any such shares
- 22 -



of Common Stock withheld on account of such applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation by the later of (x) the date such shares were otherwise due to such person (or persons) and (y) two Trading Days after receipt of such certification; provided, however, until such time as the affected Holder gives such notice, no person shall be deemed to be the shareholder of record with respect to the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon conversion in excess of any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Upon delivery of such notice, the provisions under Section 10(c) shall apply to the shares of Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to such notice.
(g)Effect of Common Stock Change Event.

(i) Generally. If, from and after the initial issuance of any shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock, there occurs any:
(1)recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock, other than (x) changes solely resulting from a subdivision or combination of the Common Stock, (y) a change only in par value or from par value to no par value or no par value to par value or (z) stock splits and stock combinations that do not involve the issuance of any other series or class of securities;
(2)consolidation, merger, combination or binding or statutory share exchange involving the Company;
(3)sale, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person; or
(4)other similar event,
and, as a result of which, the Common Stock is converted into, or is exchanged for, or represents solely the right to receive, other securities, cash or other property, or any combination of the foregoing (such an event, a “Common Stock Change Event,” and such other securities, cash or property, the “Reference Property,” and the amount and kind of Reference Property that a holder of one (1) share of Common Stock would be entitled to receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event (without giving effect to any arrangement not to issue or deliver a fractional portion of any security or other property), a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, (A) from and after the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, the consideration due upon conversion of any Series 1 Preferred Stock will be determined in the same manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this Section 10 or in Section 11, or in any related definitions, were instead a reference to the same number of Reference Property Units, and (B) for these purposes, the 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
- 23 -



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). If the Reference Property consists of more than a single type of consideration to be determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election, then the composition of the Reference Property Unit will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received, per share of Common Stock, by the holders of Common Stock. The Company will notify the Holders of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
(ii) Compliance Covenant. The Company will not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 10(g).
(iii) Execution of Supplemental Instruments. On or before the date the Common Stock Change Event becomes effective, the Company and, if applicable, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (if not the Company) of such Common Stock Change Event (the “Successor Person”) will execute and deliver such supplemental instruments, if any, as the Company reasonably determines are necessary or desirable to (1) provide for subsequent adjustments to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 10(d)(i) in a manner consistent with this Section 10(g); and (2) give effect to such other provisions, if any, as the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to preserve the economic interests of the Holders and to give effect to Section 10(g)(i). If the Reference Property includes shares of stock or other securities or assets of a Person other than the Successor Person, then such other Person will also execute such supplemental instrument(s) and such supplemental instrument(s) will contain such additional provisions, if any, that the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to preserve the economic interests of Holders.
(iv) Notice of Common Stock Change Event. The Company will provide notice of each Common Stock Change Event to Holders no later than the effective date of the Common Stock Change Event.
Section 11.Certain Provisions Relating to the Issuance of Common Stock.
(a)Equitable Adjustments to Prices. Whenever this Certificate of Designations requires the Company to calculate the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices, or any function thereof, over a period of multiple days (including to calculate an adjustment to the Conversion Rate), the Company will make appropriate adjustments, if any, to those calculations to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 10(d) that becomes effective, or any event requiring such an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, effective date or Expiration Date, as applicable, of such event occurs, at any time during such period.

(b)Reservation of Shares of Common Stock. The Company will reserve, out of its authorized, unreserved and not outstanding shares of Common Stock, for delivery upon conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock, a number of shares of Common Stock that would be sufficient to settle the conversion of all shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock then outstanding, if
- 24 -



any. To the extent the Company delivers shares of Common Stock held in the Company’s treasury in settlement of any obligation under this Certificate of Designations to deliver shares of Common Stock, each reference in this Certificate of Designations to the issuance of shares of Common Stock in connection therewith will be deemed to include such delivery.

(c)Status of Shares of Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of on the Series 1 Preferred Stock of any Holder will be a newly issued or treasury share and will be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of such Holder or the Person to whom such share of Common Stock will be delivered). If the Common Stock is then listed on any securities exchange, or quoted on any inter-dealer quotation system, then the Company will cause each such share of Common Stock, when so delivered, to be admitted for listing on such exchange or quotation on such system.

(d)Taxes Upon Issuance of Common Stock. The Company will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or duty due on the issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock of any Holder, except any tax or duty that is due because such Holder requests those shares to be registered in a name other than such Holder’s name.

Section 12.No Preemptive Rights. Without limiting the rights of any Holder set forth in this Certificate of Designations (including in connection with the issuance of Common Stock or Reference Property upon conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock), the Series 1 Preferred Stock will not have any preemptive rights to subscribe for or purchase any of the Company’s securities.
Section 13.[Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, for U.S. federal and other applicable state and local income tax purposes, it is intended that (a) the Series 1 Preferred Stock will not be treated as “preferred stock” within the meaning of Section 305(b)(4) of Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.305-5(a); and (b) no Holder will be required to include in income any amounts in respect of the Series 1 Preferred Stock by operation of Section 305(b) or (c) of the Code. The Company will, and will cause its Subsidiaries and agents to, report consistently with, and take no positions or actions inconsistent with, the foregoing treatment (including by way of withholding) unless otherwise required by a determination within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The Company will not, and will not cause or permit any of its Subsidiaries to, issue any securities or otherwise take any action that could reasonably be expected to affect the treatment described in clause (b) above.]
Section 14.Calculations.
(a)Responsibility; Schedule of Calculations. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Designations, the Company will be responsible for making all calculations called for under this Certificate of Designations or the Series 1 Preferred Stock, including determinations of the Conversion Rate. The Company will make all calculations in good faith,
- 25 -



and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be final and binding on all Holders. The Company will provide a schedule of such calculations to any Holder upon written request.

(b)Calculations Aggregated for Each Holder. The composition of the Conversion Consideration due upon conversion of the Series 1 Preferred Stock of any Holder will be computed based on the total number of shares of Series 1 Preferred Stock of such Holder being converted with the same Conversion Date. For these purposes, any cash amounts due to such Holder in respect thereof will be rounded to the nearest cent.

Section 15.Notices. The Company will send all notices or communications to Holders pursuant to this Certificate of Designations in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail (with confirmation of receipt from the recipient), or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service to the Holders’ respective addresses shown on the Register. Notwithstanding anything in the Certificate of Designations to the contrary, any defect in the delivery of any such notice or communication will not impair or affect the validity of such notice or communication and the failure to give any such notice or communication to all the Holders will not impair or affect the validity of such notice or communication to whom such notice is sent.
Section 16.No Other Rights. The Series 1 Preferred Stock will have no rights, preferences or voting powers except as provided in this Certificate of Designations or the Certificate of Incorporation or as required by applicable law.
