Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication and shall bear interest from the date specified on the face of such Note. Accrued interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months or, in the case of a partial month, the number of days elapsed over a 30-day month. The Company shall 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.
(b)    The Person in whose name any Note (or its Predecessor Note) is registered on the Note Register at the close of business on any Regular Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date. The principal amount of any Note (x) in the case of any Physical Note, shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained by the Company for such purposes in the contiguous United States of America, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office and (y) in the case of any Global Note, shall be payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Company shall pay interest (i) on any Physical Notes (A) to a Holder of an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check mailed to such Holder at their address as it appears in the Note Register and (B) to a Holder of an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000, either by check mailed to such Holder or, upon written application by such Holder to the Note Registrar before the relevant Regular Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Holder’s account within the United States, which application shall remain in effect until such Holder notifies, in writing, the Note Registrar to the contrary or (ii) on any Global Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.
(c)    Any Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but shall accrue interest per annum at the rate borne by the Notes plus one percent, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with such interest thereon shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:
(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 calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an 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 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 calendar 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 cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be delivered to each Holder, not less than 10 calendar 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 delivered, 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 or facsimile signature of any one Officer.

(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.

All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, purchase 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.
No service charge shall be imposed on the Holder 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 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 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 purchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) any Notes subject to a Notice of Redemption.
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)    So long as the Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law, subject to Section 2.05(c)(iv) all Notes (other than Affiliate Notes, if any, which shall be issued as Physical Notes) shall 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.

(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, and in accordance with, 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 accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05, be exchanged for a new Note or Notes, 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, unless such Note is acquired by an Affiliate of the Company. 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 (C) of the immediately preceding sentence have been satisfied, 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.
(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 (A) 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 (B) 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.
If (A) the Depositary notifies the Company at any time that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 calendar days, (B) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 calendar days or (C) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of any Note requests that its beneficial interest therein be exchanged for a Physical Note, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, shall authenticate and deliver, at the Company’s expense (x) in the case of clause (C), a Physical Note to such beneficial owner in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Note corresponding to such beneficial owner’s beneficial interest and (y) in the case of clause (A) or (B), Physical Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange for such Global Notes, and upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled.
Physical Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)(iv) 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 (C) 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, purchased 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, purchased 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 that such Holder’s proposed transfer of the Affiliate Note satisfies all applicable requirements set forth in Rule 144 under the Securities Act or 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) if the Company or the Trustee so requests, an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that 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 (D) written instructions directing the Trustee to make, or to direct the Note Registrar to make, an adjustment to its books and records with respect to such Global Note to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Notes represented by the Global Note, such instructions to contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited with such increase. Upon such transfer, 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 Registrar, the aggregate principal amount of the Physical Note to be exchanged, and shall credit or cause to be credit 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. To the extent required, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate, upon written order of the Company in the form of a Company Order and an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, a new Global Note in the appropriate principal amount.
(d)    Legends on the Common Stock.
(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 such Common Stock has been transferred pursuant to, and in accordance with, 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 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, and in accordance with, 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 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):

WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING CLAUSE (D), PRIOR TO THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE, THE COMPANY AND THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER AGENT RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND MAY RELY UPON TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.
(ii)    Notwithstanding clause (i) above, any stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of an Affiliate Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless 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 sold 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 in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee):
THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE ACQUIRER: REPRESENTS THAT IT IS A "QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER" (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) OR AN "ACCREDITED INVESTOR" (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 501 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THAT IT EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH SUCH ACCOUNT, AND AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF CYAN, INC. THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, EXCEPT:
(A) TO CYAN, INC. OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF,

(C) SUCH TRANSFERS AS AGREED TO BY THE COMPANY AND ALLOWED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT TO SUCH TRANSFEREES THAT AGREE IN WRITING TO THE TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH HEREIN ("PERMITTED TRANSFERS").
WITH RESPECT TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR PROVISION OR ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, THE COMPANY AND THE COMPANY'S TRANSFER AGENT RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND MAY RELY UPON TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.
(iii)    Any such Common Stock (i) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms, (ii) that has been transferred pursuant to, and in accordance with, 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 (iii) 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 the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d), unless such shares are held by an Affiliate of the Company.
(e)    Except as expressly set forth in Sections 2.05(c) and 2.05(d) with respect to Affiliated Notes (and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof), any Note that is repurchased or owned by any Affiliate of the Company (or any Person who was an Affiliate of the Company at any time during the three months preceding) may not be resold by such Affiliate (or such Person, as the case may be) unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Note no longer being a “restricted security” (as defined under Rule 144).
(f)    The Company shall cause any Note that is repurchased or owned by it to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08.
(g)    The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among depositary participants or beneficial owners or holders of any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements thereof.
(h)    Neither the Trustee nor any agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.
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 on the Holder 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 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 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 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 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, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be surrendered 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 for Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. 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, within a 13-day period after the date hereof pursuant to the Private Placement Memorandum and without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (except for any differences in issue price and interest accrued, if any) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $10,000,000, including placing a portion of the proceeds of such additional Notes in the Escrow Account to secure any interest payments on or before December 15, 2017 for such additional Notes in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement; provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax and securities law purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. 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 19.05, 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, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties 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) or redeemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08, and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding hereunder upon their repurchase.
ARTICLE 3    
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE
Section 3.01    . Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the Notes, when (a) (i) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced, paid or converted as provided in Section 2.06 and (y) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in ‎Section 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after the Notes have become due and payable, whether on the Maturity Date, any Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Redemption Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or, solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation, cash and/or shares of Common Stock sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes or satisfy all outstanding conversions, as the case may be, and pay all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company; and (b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

ARTICLE 4    
PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY
Section 4.01    . Payment of Principal and Interest.

The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency.

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

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

Section 4.06    . Rule 144A Information Requirement and Annual Reports. (a) If, at any time, the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, upon the written request of any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of Notes or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes, promptly furnish such Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of the Notes or such shares of Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(ii)    waive and not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement, indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Company or any other Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Subsidiary under its Note Guarantee.

(b)    In addition, the Company shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to become a party to the applicable Related Security Documents and take such actions required thereby to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of itself, the Trustee and the Holders, a perfected security interest in any Collateral held by such Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to Permitted Liens.

Section 6.02    . Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company), except for any Notes the principal of which shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, in each case, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare 100% of the principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes then outstanding to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on all the Notes then outstanding shall be and automatically become immediately due and payable, without any declaration or other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes, to the full extent permitted by applicable law.
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 (or have become immediately 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, if all amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06 have been paid, 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 on Notes that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration have been remedied 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 principal amount of the outstanding Notes, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all past 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price or the Redemption Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on any Notes, (ii) a failure to purchase any Notes when required under this Indenture 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 of Holders 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 (i) for the first 180 calendar 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 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the first 90 calendar days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default and 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding from the 91st calendar day until the 180th calendar day on which such an Event of Default is continuing. If the Company makes such an election, 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 calendar day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) is not cured or waived prior to such 181st calendar day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 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). The provisions of this Section 6.03 will not affect the rights of Holders in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default. If the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest upon 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 calendar days after the occurrence of an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) and all of the Holders of such election prior to the beginning of such 180-calendar day period. Upon the failure to timely give such notice or pay Additional Interest, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.
In no event shall any Additional Interest with respect to the Notes payable at the Company’s election for failure to comply with its reporting obligations as set forth under Section 6.03 and any Additional Interest that may accrue under the circumstances and as described in Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e) accrue at a rate in excess of 0.50% per annum pursuant to this Indenture, 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, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, with interest on any overdue principal and interest 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 hereunder. 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 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 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, it’s 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 hereunder; 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 hereunder, 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 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.

(c)    such Holder or Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity, in each case, reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and other liabilities of compliance with such request;
(d)    the Trustee for 60 calendar 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 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-calendar 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.

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.

The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is in conflict with applicable law or this Indenture, is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of at least 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 on or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Purchase Price or Redemption 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, (iii) a failure by the Company to repurchase any Notes when required under this Indenture or (iv) 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.
Section 6.10    . Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 calendar days after the occurrence and continuance of a Default of which a Responsible Officer has knowledge, deliver to all Holders notice of all Defaults known to a Responsible Officer, 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price or Redemption 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 a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.
Section 6.11    . Undertaking to Pay Costs. 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 on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Purchase Price or Redemption 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.

If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.08, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.08, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.
Section 7.09    . Resignation or Removal of Trustee.

(c)    In case at any time any of the following shall occur:
(i)    the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or
(ii)    the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

Section 7.10    . Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a 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.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders. If the Company fails to deliver such notice (or cause such notice to be delivered) within ten calendar days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be delivered at the expense of the Company.
Section 7.11    . Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.
In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.
Section 7.12    . Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable to the Company for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date any officer that the Company has indicated to the Trustee should receive such application actually receives such application, unless any such officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of any omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.
Section 7.13    . No Obligation to Monitor. The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Global Notes or for actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Depositary) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

Section 8.03    . Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

(iii)    no Default or Event of Default with respect to the outstanding Notes shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit after giving effect thereto;
(iv)    such Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act (assuming all Notes are in default within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act);
(v)    such Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or material instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound; and
(vi)    the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.

ARTICLE 14    
CONVERSION OF NOTES
Section 14.01    . Conversion Privilege. (a) 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 (i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions described in Section 14.01(b), at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 14.01(b), and (ii) regardless of the conditions described in Section 14.01(b), on or after June 15, 2019 and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of 403.3998 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”).
(a)    
(i)    On and after January 15, 2016 until prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion at any time during the five consecutive Business Day period immediately following any five consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder of Notes in accordance with this subsection (b)(i), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each applicable Trading Day. The Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(i) and the definition of Trading Price set forth in this Indenture. At such time as the Company directs the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) in writing to solicit bid quotations, the Company will provide the Bid Solicitation Agent with the names and contact details of the three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company pursuant to the definition of Trading Price, and the Company will direct those security dealers to provide bids to the Bid Solicitation Agent. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Company has requested such determination, and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes) unless a Holder of at least $2,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate, at which time the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent in writing (if other than the Company) to determine, or if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate. If (x) the Company is not acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, and the Company does not, when it is required to, instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids, or if the Company instructs the Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids and the Bid Solicitation Agent fails to make such determination, or (y) the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent and the Company fails to make such determination when obligated as provided in the preceding sentence, then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each Trading Day of such failure. If the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met on any Trading Day, the Company shall so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing on such Trading Day. If, at any time after the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate for such Trading Day, the Company shall promptly so notify the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing that the Trading Price condition set forth above is no longer met and thereafter neither the Company nor the Bid Solicitation Agent, as applicable, shall be required to measure the Trading Price again until a new request is made as provided in this subsection (b)(i). None of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent or the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to determine or to verify the Company’s determination of whether the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met.
(ii)    If, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, the Company elects to:
(A)    issue 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; or
(B)    distribute to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock the Company’s assets, securities or rights, options or warrants to purchase securities of the Company, which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such distribution,
then, in either case, the Company shall notify all Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) at least 55 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion at any time until the earlier of (1) the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and (2) the Company’s announcement that such issuance or distribution will not take place, in each case, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time. None of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent or the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to determine or to verify the Company’s determination of whether an issuance or distribution in this clause (ii) has occurred.
(iii)    If a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the Company to purchase the Notes pursuant to Section 15.02, if the Company is a party to a Specified Corporate Event that occurs prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, or if the Company publicly announces a transaction or event that would, if consummated, constitute a Fundamental Change, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a Specified Corporate Event, all or any portion of a Holder’s Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the date that is 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of the transaction (or, if later, the Business Day after the Company gives notice of such transaction) until 35 Trading Days after the actual effective date of such transaction or, if such transaction also constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date. The Company shall notify in writing Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) (i) at least 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction or (ii) if the Company has not publicly announced such transaction at least 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction, within one Business Day of the date the Company publicly announces such transaction, but in no event later than the actual effective date of such transaction. If any transaction or event that would, if consummated, constitute a Fundamental Change, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or a Specified Corporate Event, is subsequently terminated or cancelled, the Company shall give notice to Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such termination or cancellation and the Notes will not be convertible pursuant to this Section 14.01(b)(iii) as of the date the Company provides such notice. None of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent or the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to determine or to verify the Company’s determination of whether a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change has occurred.
(iv)    On and after January 15, 2016 until prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, a Holder may surrender all or any portion of its Notes for conversion if, for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending within five Trading Days prior to a Conversion Date, the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock exceeds the applicable Conversion Price on each such Trading Day. The Company, shall determine whether the Notes may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with this clause (iv) and shall notify the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Trustee if the Notes become convertible in accordance with this clause (iv). None of the Trustee, the Bid Solicitation Agent or the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to determine or to verify the Company’s determination of whether the condition set forth in this clause (iv) has been met.
(v)    If the Company has provided a Notice of Redemption, Holders may convert their Notes at any time on or after the date the Company delivers the Notice of Redemption to Holders and prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time. After that time, the Holders’ right to convert on account of the Company’s delivery of the Notice of Redemption will expire, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder may convert its Notes until the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for.
Section 14.02    . Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion. (a) Subject to this Section 14.02, Section 14.04(b) and Section 14.09(a), upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall pay or deliver, 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 cash, 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.
(i)    All conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs (x) during the period from, and including, June 15, 2019 to, and including, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, or (y) after the Company’s issuance of a Notice of Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, in each case, shall be settled using the same Settlement Method.
(ii)    Except for any conversions described in Section 14.02(a)(i), the Company shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions with the same Conversion Date, but (unless (x) the Company has not received the Conversion Approval, in which case, the Company shall be required to settle the relevant conversion by Combination Settlement with a Specified Dollar Amount of at least $1,000 or (y) the Company has not received the Affiliate Investment Approval, in which case, the Company shall be required to settle the relevant conversion by Cash Settlement for all Affiliated Notes submitted for conversion, as well as any other Notes submitted for conversion with the same Conversion Date as an Affiliated Note), the Company shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions with different Conversion Dates.
(iii)    Subject to this Section 14.02(a), if, in respect of any Conversion Date, the Company elects a Settlement Method, the Company, shall deliver a settlement notice (the “Settlement Notice”) to converting Holders no later than the close of business on the second Trading Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date (or, in the case of any conversions occurring (x) during the period from, and including, June 15, 2019 to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, no later than the close of business on June 15, 2019, or (y) after the date of the issuance of a Notice of Redemption and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, in such Notice of Redemption). 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. 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 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. If the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) Combination Settlement, but the Company does not specify the Specified Dollar Amount, the Specified Dollar Amount will be deemed to be $1,000.
(iv)    Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, (A) unless and until the Company obtains the Conversion Approval, (x) the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion will be subject to the Conversion Share Cap and (y) the Company will be required to elect Combination Settlement with a Specified Dollar Amount of at least $1,000 for all Notes submitted for conversion (which means the Company will be obligated to settle its Conversion Obligation by paying up to at least the principal amount of such Notes in cash and delivering shares of Common Stock for the remaining Settlement Amount, if any, in excess of the Specified Dollar Amount) and, if the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable for the Settlement Amount in excess of the Specified Dollar Amount would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Conversion Share Cap, then the Company shall pay cash in lieu of the shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be deliverable in respect any Trading Day during the relevant Observation Period based on the Daily VWAP for such Trading Day; and (B) unless and until the Company obtains the Affiliate Investment Approval, the Company will be required to elect Cash Settlement for all Affiliated Notes submitted for conversion, as well as any other Notes submitted for conversion with the same Conversion Date as an Affiliated Note. If the Company receives Conversion Approval and/or Affiliate Investment Approval on any day, it shall so notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing within one Business Day.
(v)    Subject to this Section 14.02(a) (including for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 14.02(a)(iv)), prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding June 15, 2019, the Company may irrevocably elect, in the Company’s sole discretion without the consent of the Holders, to settle all conversions through Combination Settlement with a Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes equal to $1,000, and cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination thereof in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s Conversion Obligation (“Net Share Settlement Election”); provided that any election to settle the remainder shall be made by specifying a Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 in accordance with the procedures of this Section 14.02(a)(v). Upon making the Net Share Settlement Election, the Company shall promptly (x) use its reasonable efforts to post such information on its website or otherwise publicly disclose this information and (y) provide written notice to the Holders thereof.
(vi)    With respect to any conversion and subject to this Section 14.02(a), 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 and the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable;
(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 50 consecutive Trading Days during the related Observation Period and the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable; 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 50 consecutive Trading Days during the relevant Observation Period and the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable.
(vii)    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.
(g)    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 provide an irrevocable notice (a “Notice of Conversion”) by (i) (A) in the case of a Global Note, complying with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, (1) paying funds equal to the interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h) and (2) paying all transfer and similar taxes as set forth in ‎Section 14.02(d) and ‎Section 14.02(e) and (ii) in the case of a Physical Note (A) completing, manually signing and delivering the irrevocable written notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) at the office of the Conversion Agent and stating 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, (B) surrendering 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, (C) if required, furnishing appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, (D) if required, paying all transfer and similar taxes as set forth in ‎Section 14.02(d) and ‎Section 14.02(e) and (E) if required, paying 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Notice to the Company in respect of such Notes and has not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.03.
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.
(h)    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 Section 14.02(b) above. Except as set forth in Section 14.04(b) and Section 14.09(a), the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due in respect of the Conversion Obligation, including the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable, on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date, if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation by Physical Settlement, or on the third 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.
(i)    In case any 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.
(j)    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 any such shares to be issued in a name other than such Holder’s name, in which case such Holder must pay that tax. 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.
(k)    Except as provided in Section 14.05, 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.
(l)    Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian 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 the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.
(m)    Upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, except as set forth below and Section 14.03. 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 to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest 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 that is deemed to be paid 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, 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 beginning after the close of business on any Regular Record Date and ending at 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 Notes in respect of which an Interest Make-Whole Payment is payable upon conversion; (2) for Notes surrendered for conversion after the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (3) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; (4) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (5) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. Therefore, all Holders of record on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, any Interest Make-Whole Payment payable upon conversion described in clause (1) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Redemption Date described in clause (3) of the immediately preceding sentence and any Fundamental Change Purchase Date described in clause (4) of the immediately preceding sentence shall receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date or other applicable Interest Payment Date regardless of whether their Notes have been converted, redeemed or purchased, as applicable, following such Regular Record Date.
(n)    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 satisfies 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.
(o)    The Company shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall instead (i) pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP on the relevant Conversion Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or based on the Daily VWAP on the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period (in the case of Combination Settlement) and (ii) with respect to an Interest Make-Whole Payment satisfied with shares of Common Stock, based on the simple average of the Daily VWAP for the 10 Trading Days ending on and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the Conversion Date. 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    . Interest Make-Whole Payment. (a) On or after January 15, 2016, if for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending within five Trading Days prior to a Conversion Date the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock exceeds the applicable Conversion Price on each such Trading Day, the Company shall in addition to the other consideration payable or deliverable in connection with such conversion make a payment (the “Interest Make-Whole Payment”) to converting Holders equal to the sum of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of interest that would have been made on the Notes to be converted had such Notes remained outstanding until December 15, 2017, computed using a discount rate equal to 2%.
(e)    If a Conversion Date occurs after the close of business on a Regular Record Date for the payment of interest but prior to the open of business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Regular Record Date, the Company shall not pay accrued interest to any converting Holder and will instead pay the full amount of the relevant interest payment on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record on such Regular Record Date. In such case, the Interest Make-Whole Payment to such converting Holders will equal the present value of all remaining interest payments, starting with the next Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been provided for until December 15, 2017, computed using a discount rate equal to 2%. The present value shall be computed by nationally recognized independent investment banking firms, which may be the Placement Agent, selected by the Company for this purpose.
(f)    Notwithstanding this Section 14.03, if in connection with any conversion the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 14.04, then such Holder will not receive the Interest Make-Whole Payment with respect to such Note.
(g)    Prior to receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals, the Company will be required to pay any Interest Make-Whole Payment in cash. From and after the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approvals, the Company may pay any Interest Make-Whole Payment either in cash or in shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election. If the Company elects to pay an Interest Make-Whole Payment in shares of Common Stock, then the shares of Common Stock will be valued at 95% of the simple average of the Daily VWAP for the 10 Trading Days ending on and including the Trading Day immediately preceding the Conversion Date.
(h)    The Company shall notify each converting Holder, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such Interest Make-Whole Payment and will specify in such notice whether the Company will satisfy the Interest Make-Whole Payment in cash or shares of Common Stock no later than one Business Day after the related Conversion Date.
Section 14.04    . Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes or Redemption. (a) If, (i) prior to the Maturity Date, a Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date occurs or (ii) the Company calls the Notes for redemption pursuant to Article 16 and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change or redemption, 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 Notice of Conversion for such Notes is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date up to, and including, the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Purchase 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 Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”). A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” a redemption if the Notice of Conversion for such Notes is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Redemption Notice Date up to, and including, the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date (such period, the “Redemption Period”).
(a)    Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(iii) or during a Redemption Period pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(v), the Company shall, at its option, satisfy the related Conversion Obligation 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 Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date, 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 determined and paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify in writing the Holders of Notes and the Trustee of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and issue a press release announcing such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date or publish the information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time no later than the Business Day after such Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date.
(b)    The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Company will increase the Conversion Rate shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date or the Redemption Notice Date 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 on the Redemption Notice Date. 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. In the case of any other Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date or the Redemption Notice Date. In the event that a conversion during a Redemption Period would also be deemed to be in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Holder of the Notes to be converted shall be entitled to a single increase to the Conversion Rate with respect to the first to occur of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date and the Redemption Notice Date, and the later event will be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of this Section 14.04. 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 or expiration date of the event occurs during such five consecutive Trading Day period.
(c)    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 in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate in effect 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 at the same time and in the same manner as the Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 14.05.
The following table sets forth the Stock Prices, Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates, Redemption Notice Dates and the number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased for a Holder that converts a Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or during a Redemption Period having such Stock Price and Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date or Redemption Notice Date, as applicable:

(d)        The exact Stock Prices, Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates and Redemption Notice Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:
(viii)    if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices listed in the table above or the Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Date or Redemption Notice Date is between two Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates or Redemption Notice Dates, as applicable, listed 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 Make-Whole Fundamental Change Effective Dates or Redemption Notice Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-calendar day year, as applicable;
(ix)    if the Stock Price is greater than $30.00 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
(x)    if the Stock Price is less than $2.07 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 number of Additional Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 73.6919 shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment at the same time and in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.05.
(e)    Nothing in this Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.05 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
Section 14.05    . 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 participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as the holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 14.05, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Conversion Rate.
(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 of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
where,
CR0 
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination;
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 14.05(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 the case may be. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.05(a) is declared but not so paid or made, then the Conversion Rate shall immediately be 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 had 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 the holders of such rights, 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:
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 for such issuance;
OS0 
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
X
=    the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
Y
=    the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.
Any increase made under this Section 14.05(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, as of the date of such expiration, 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, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, as of the scheduled issuance date, 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 14.05(b) and Section 14.01(b)(ii)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for each Trading Day in the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, with 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 shares of 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 14.05(a) or Section 14.05(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.05(d), (iii) conversion of the Common Stock into, or exchange of the Common Stock for, in each case, Reference Property pursuant to a transaction described in Section 14.09 and (iv) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.05(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire shares of Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
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 such Ex-Dividend Date;
SP0 
=    the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
FMV
=    the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
Any increase made under this Section 14.05(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, or if any rights or warrants are not exercised before their expiration date, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had such distribution had not been declared or to the extent such rights, options or warrants are not exercised before they expire.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held, 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 as if such Holder had owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Record Date for such distribution. If the Board of Directors determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.05(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 14.05(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 a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, 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:
where,
CR0 
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;
CR'
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off;
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 immediately following, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); 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 be determined on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period, but shall be given effect at the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of any conversion of Notes during the Valuation Period, references in the portion of this Section 14.05(c) related to Spin-Offs with respect to 10 consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, but excluding, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off is less than 10 Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Observation Period in respect of any conversion of Notes, references in the preceding paragraph to 10 consecutive Trading Days will 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 the Spin-Off to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. If such Spin-Off does not occur, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared, effective as of the date on which the Board of Directors determines not to consummate such Spin-Off.
For purposes of this Section 14.05(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 14.13), 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 14.05(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.05(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 14.05(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 14.05(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 (or deemed to have expired or been terminated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence) without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued (to the extent any adjustment to the Conversion Rate was made in connection with such issuance).
For purposes of Section 14.05(a), Section 14.05(b) and this Section 14.05(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.05(c) is applicable also includes one or both of:
(A)    a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock to which Section 14.05(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or
(B)    a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.05(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 14.05(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 14.05(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 14.05(a) and Section 14.05(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 14.05(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 14.05(b).
(d)    If any cash dividend or distribution by the Company to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
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 that the Company pays or distributes to holders of the Common Stock.
Any increase pursuant to this Section 14.05(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), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, 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 on the Record Date for such cash dividend or distribution.
(e)    If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Stock, and the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on 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:
where,
CR0 
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender offer or exchange offer expires;
CR'
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender offer 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 time such tender offer 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 offer or exchange offer);
OS'
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the time such tender offer or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender offer 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 offer or exchange offer expires.
The increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.05(e) shall be determined 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, but shall be given effect at the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in respect of any conversion of Notes within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references in this Section 14.05(e) with respect to 10 consecutive Trading Days 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 the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. In addition, if the Trading Day next succeeding the expiration date for such tender or exchange offer is less than 10 Trading Days prior to, and including, the end of the Observation Period (if applicable) in respect of any conversion of Notes, references in the preceding paragraph to 10 consecutive Trading Days 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 expiration date for such tender or exchange offer to, and including, the last Trading Day of such Observation Period. For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.05(e) shall be made if such adjustment would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate.
If the Company is obligated to purchase shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in this Section 14.05(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 readjusted 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 14.05 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if any adjustment to the Conversion Rate described in clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 14.05 becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date, and a Holder that has converted its Notes on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of the shares of Common Stock as of the related Conversion Date as described under Section 14.02(i) based on an adjusted Conversion Rate; and for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the Conversion Rate adjustment provisions in this Section 14.05, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such converting Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.
(g)    If the application of the formulas described in clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 14.05 or under Section 14.06 would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made (other than as a result of a reverse share split or share combination or the reversal of an increase to the Conversion Rate where the relevant event did not occur, as expressly specified in the Indenture).
(h)    In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 14.05, and to the extent allowed by applicable law and any applicable stock exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, (i) the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest and (ii) 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 shares of 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 deliver to the Holder of each Note a notice of the increase at least 15 calendar 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 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;
(ii)    except as set forth in ‎Sections 14.05(b), 14.05(c) or 14.06, 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 (i) of this subsection;
(iii)    upon the repurchase of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the nature described in Section 14.05(e);
(iv)    solely for a change in the par value (or lack of par value) of the Common Stock; or
(v)    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, with five one-hundred-thousandths rounded upward (e.g., 0.76545 would be rounded up to 0.7655). The Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate pursuant to clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 14.05 or Section 14.06 unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% of the Conversion Rate; provided, however, that if an adjustment is not made because the adjustment does not change the Conversion Rate by at least 1%, then such adjustment will be carried forward and taken into account in any future adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon any conversion of Notes and (ii) annually, on the anniversary of the original issue date of the Notes, the Company shall give effect to all adjustments that the Company has otherwise deferred pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, and those adjustments will no longer be carried forward and taken into account in any future adjustment.
(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 deliver such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(l)    For purposes of this Section 14.05, 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.
(m)    If, in the case of any conversion of a Note to which Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement applies, on any Trading Day during the Observation Period for such Note, shares of Common Stock are deliverable as part of the Daily Settlement Amount for such Trading Day, and
(i)    the Effective Date for any Qualifying Dilutive Issuance, Ex-Dividend Date for any issuance, dividend or distribution, the Effective Date for any share split or combination or the expiration date for any tender offer or exchange offer that, in each case, would require an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under clauses (a) through (e) of this Section 14.05 or under Section 14.06 occurs prior to the Company’s delivery of such shares of Common Stock and/or cash to the converting Holder;
(ii)    the applicable Conversion Rate for such Trading Day will not reflect such adjustment; and
(iii)    the shares of Common Stock and/or cash that the Company will deliver to the converting Holder with respect to such Trading Day are not entitled to participate in the relevant event (because the converting Holder is not treated as the holder of such shares of Common Stock on the related Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date, expiration date or otherwise),
then the Company shall adjust the number of shares and/or cash that the Company delivers to such Holder as part of the Daily Settlement Amount for such Trading Day in a manner that the Board of Directors determines appropriately reflects the relevant issuance, dividend, distribution, transaction or event.
Section 14.06    . Conversion Rate Adjustments upon Certain Issuances of Common Stock. (a) If the Company issues, or has been deemed by the express provisions of this Section 14.06 to have issued, Additional Shares of Common Stock, for an Effective Price less than the Applicable Closing Price (a “Qualifying Dilutive Issuance”), then and in each such case, the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following:
where,
CR0 
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date for such issuance;
CR'
=    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Effective Date for such issuance;
OS0 
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Effective Date;
X
=    the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued;
CP0 
=    the Applicable Closing Price in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date for such issuance; and
Y
=    the Aggregate Consideration.
Any adjustment made under this Section 14.06(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock. In the event that the number of shares of Additional Shares of Common Stock or the Effective Price cannot be ascertained at the time of issuance, such Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed issued immediately upon the occurrence of the first event that makes such number of Additional Shares of Common Stock or the Effective Price, as applicable, ascertainable. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent a Conversion Rate adjustment is made under Section 14.05 with respect to any issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock, no adjustment will be made pursuant to this Section 14.06.
(a)    For the purpose of the adjustment required under Section 14.06(a), if the Company (i) issues (x) preferred stock or other stock, options, warrants, purchase rights or other securities exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into, Additional Shares of Common Stock (such convertible stock or securities being herein referred to as “Convertible Securities”) or (y) rights or options for the purchase of Additional Shares of Common Stock or Convertible Securities and (ii) if the effective price of such Additional Shares of Common Stock is less than the Applicable Closing Price, in each case, the Company shall be deemed to have issued at the time of the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities the maximum number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof and to have received as consideration for the issuance of such shares an amount equal to the total amount of the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the issuance of such rights or options or Convertible Securities plus: (A) in the case of such rights or options, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the exercise of such rights or options; and (B) in the case of Convertible Securities, the minimum amounts of consideration, if any, payable to the Company upon the conversion thereof (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities); provided that if the minimum amounts of such consideration cannot be ascertained, but are a function of antidilution or similar protective clauses, the Company shall be deemed to have received the minimum amounts of consideration without reference to such clauses.
(b)    If the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of rights, options or Convertible Securities is reduced over time or on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of antidilution adjustments, the Effective Price shall be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; provided further, that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities is subsequently increased, the Effective Price shall be again recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to us upon the exercise or conversion of such rights, options or Convertible Securities.
(c)    No further adjustment of the Conversion Rate or the Applicable Closing Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities, shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock or the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of any such Convertible Securities. If any such rights or options or the conversion privilege represented by any such Convertible Securities shall expire without having been exercised, the Conversion Rate and the Applicable Closing Price, as adjusted upon the issuance of such rights, options or Convertible Securities shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate or the Applicable Closing Price that would have been in effect had an adjustment been made on the basis that the only Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued were the Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, actually issued or sold on the exercise of such rights or options or rights of conversion of such Convertible Securities, and such Additional Shares of Common Stock, if any, were issued or sold for the consideration actually received by us upon such exercise, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by us for the granting of all such rights or options, whether or not exercised, plus the consideration received for issuing or selling the Convertible Securities actually converted, plus the consideration, if any, actually received by the Company (other than by cancellation of liabilities or obligations evidenced by such Convertible Securities) on the conversion of such convertible securities, provided that such readjustment shall not apply to prior conversions of the Notes.
(d)    In the event that the Company issues, or are deemed to have issued, Additional Shares of Common Stock in a qualifying dilutive issuance (the “First Dilutive Issuance”), then in the event that the Company issues, or are deemed to have issued, Additional Shares of Common Stock in a Qualifying Dilutive Issuance other than the First Dilutive Issuance as a part of the same transaction or series of related transactions as the First Dilutive Issuance (a “Subsequent Dilutive Issuance”), then and in each such case upon a Subsequent Dilutive Issuance the Conversion Rate shall be increased to the Conversion Rate and the Applicable Closing Price shall be decreased to the Applicable Closing Price, in each case, that would have been in effect had the First Dilutive Issuance and each Subsequent Dilutive Issuance all occurred on the Effective Date of the First Dilutive Issuance.
Section 14.07    . 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, if applicable, the period for determining the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change or redemption), 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 that would require an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date 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.
Section 14.08    . 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 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 14.09    . 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 changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),
(ii)    any consolidation, merger, combination or similar transaction involving the Company,
(iii)    any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s existing and future Subsidiaries, or
(iv)    any statutory share exchange,
in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Specified Corporate Event”), then the Company or the successor or acquiring corporation, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(b) providing that, at and after the effective time of such Specified Corporate Event, 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 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 Specified Corporate 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 the occurrence of such Specified Corporate Event; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Specified Corporate Event, (A) the Company or the successor or acquiring corporation, as the case may be, 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 in respect of the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable, in accordance with Section 14.01(b) and (B) (x) any amount payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.01 and Section 14.02 shall continue to be payable in cash, (y) any shares of Common Stock that the Company would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.01 and Section 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 received in such Specified Corporate Event and (z) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property.
If the Specified Corporate 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 shareholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall 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 Specified Corporate Event, then for all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Specified Corporate 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 14.04), multiplied by the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Specified Corporate Event and (B) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying such cash amount to converting Holders on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for (x) anti-dilution adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 14.09, with respect to any Reference Property consisting of shares of Common Equity, and (y) with respect to any other Reference Property, such adjustments (if any) that the Board of Directors determines in good faith are appropriate. If, in the case of any Specified Corporate Event, the Reference Property includes shares of Common Equity or other securities issued by a company that is party to such transaction but is not the Company, such other company will also execute such supplemental indenture, and such supplemental indenture will contain such provisions and modifications as the Board of Directors reasonably considers necessary or appropriate to protect the interests of the Holders, including the right of Holders to require the Company to purchase their notes upon a Fundamental Change by reason of the foregoing. If the Notes become convertible into Reference Property, the Company shall notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and publish the information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time.
(b)    When the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 14.09, 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 Specified Corporate Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly deliver notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be delivered to each Holder within 20 calendar 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 Specified Corporate Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.09. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes into shares of Common Stock or, following receipt of Stockholder Approval, cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, all as set forth in Section 14.01 and Section 14.02, prior to the effective date of such Specified Corporate Event.
(d)    The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Specified Corporate Events.
Section 14.10    . 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.
(a)    The Company covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock to be provided for the purpose of conversion of Notes hereunder require registration (other than pursuant to the Securities Act) 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.
(b)    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 14.11    . 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 14.09 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 14.09 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. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by Section 14.01(b) has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in Section 14.01(b) with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in Section 14.01(b).
Section 14.12    . 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 14.05 or Section 14.13;
(a)    Specified Corporate Event; or
(b)    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 cause to be filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to be delivered to each Holder, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 calendar 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 Specified Corporate 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 Specified Corporate 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, Specified Corporate Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.
Section 14.13    . Shareholder Rights Plans. To the extent that the Company has a shareholder rights plan in effect at the time any Holder converts its 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 shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company had distributed to all or substantially all of the holders of the Common Stock Distributed Property as provided in Section 14.05(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
ARTICLE 15    
REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT OPTION OF HOLDERS
Section 15.01    . Intentionally Omitted.
Section 15.02    . Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change. (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, on a date (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 calendar days nor more than 35 calendar days after the date on which the Company delivers the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Purchase Date occurs after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the corresponding 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 on the Notes to Holders of record of such Notes on the Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall instead be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be purchased pursuant to this Article 15.
(i)    Purchases 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 “Fundamental Change Purchase Notice”) in the form entitled “Form of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice” 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, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date; and
(ii)    delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Purchase 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price therefor.
The Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:
(i)    if the Notes to be delivered are Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for purchase;
(ii)    the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be purchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and
(iii)    that the Notes are to be purchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this Indenture;
provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice must comply with appropriate Depositary procedures.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 15.02 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date by delivering to the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with Section 15.03.
The Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Purchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof.
(j)    On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the effective date of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders of Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change, describing the Fundamental Change and the purchase 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. Simultaneously with providing such notice, the Company shall publish such information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:
(i)    the events causing the Fundamental Change;
(ii)    the effective date of the Fundamental Change;
(iii)    the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article 15;
(iv)    the Fundamental Change Purchase Price;
(v)    the Fundamental Change Purchase Date;
(vi)    the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable;
(vii)    the Conversion Rate in effect on the date the Company delivers the Fundamental Change Company Notice and, if applicable, any adjustment that the Company will make for a Holder that converts its Notes in connection with the Fundamental Change;
(viii)    that a Holder may convert Notes for which it has tendered a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice only if the Holder withdraws the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; and
(ix)    the procedures that a Holder must follow to require the Company to purchase its Notes and the procedures that a Holder must follow to convert its Notes.
No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ purchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the purchase 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 Fundamental Change Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company.
(k)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be purchased by the Company on any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change 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 of the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the 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 Fundamental Change Purchase 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn.
Section 15.03    . Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice. (a) A Holder may withdraw any Fundamental Change Purchase Notice (in whole or in part) by delivering to the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with this Section 15.03 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, specifying:
(i)    the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted,
(ii)    if the Notes to be withdrawn are Physical Notes, the certificate number of the Notes to be withdrawn, and
(iii)    the principal amount, if any, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple of thereof, which remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Purchase Notice,;
provided, however, that if the Notes to be withdrawn are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary.
Section 15.04    . Deposit of Fundamental Change Purchase 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Date an amount of money sufficient to purchase all of the Notes to be purchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Purchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds and/or Notes by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company), payment for Notes that have been validly surrendered for purchase (and not validly withdrawn prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Purchase Date (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 15.02) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price.
(n)    If by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, sets aside, segregates and holds in trust as provided in Section 4.04) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be purchased on such Fundamental Change Purchase Date, then, with respect to the Notes that have been properly tendered for purchase and not validly withdrawn in accordance with Section 15.03, (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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price and, if the Fundamental Change Purchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the right of the Holder of record on such Regular Record Date to receive the related interest payment).
(o)    Upon surrender of a Note that is to be purchased 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 unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered.
Section 15.05    . Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Purchase of Notes. In connection with any purchase offer pursuant to a Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, the Company will, if required:
(e)    comply with the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable;
(f)    file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act; and
(g)    otherwise comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Company to purchase 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    
REDEMPTION
Section 16.01    . Optional Redemption. (a) Prior to December 20, 2017, the Notes shall not be redeemable. On or after December 20, 2017, the Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, at the Company’s option, if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending within three Trading Days prior to the date the Company delivers the Notice of Redemption is greater than or equal to 140% of the Conversion Price on each applicable Trading Day. The redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (unless the Redemption Date occurs after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date, in which case the Company shall pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date corresponding to such Interest Payment Date, and the Redemption Price payable to the Holder who presents a Note for redemption shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed). The Redemption Date must be a Business Day.
(l)    In the case of any optional redemption, the Company shall provide not less than 75 nor more than 90 calendar days’ written notice (the “Notice of Redemption”) before the Redemption Date by mail or electronic delivery to the Trustee, the Paying Agent (if other than the trustee) and each Holder. The Notice of Redemption shall specify:
(i)    the Redemption Date;
(ii)    the Redemption Price;
(iii)    the Conversion Rate in effect on the Redemption Notice Date and, if applicable, any adjustment that the Company will make for a Holder that converts its Notes in connection with the redemption;
(iv)    the applicable Conversion Price;
(v)    the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable;
(vi)    that the Notes to be redeemed may be converted at any time before the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date or, if the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, such later date on which the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for;
(vii)    the procedures that a Holder must follow for the Company to redeem its Notes and the procedures that a Holder must follow to convert its Notes;
(viii)    that Notes to be redeemed must be surrendered to the Paying Agent for cancellation to collect the Redemption Price;
(ix)    that, unless the Issuer defaults in making payment of such Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue with respect to redeemed Notes on and after the Redemption Date;
(x)    the CUSIP number of the Notes; and
(xi)    if Holders would be entitled to Additional Shares upon exchange in connection with such redemption, that Holders would be so entitled and a description of the method for determining the amount by which the Conversion Rate has been, or would be, so increased (along with a description of how such increase is calculated and the time period during which Notes must be surrendered in order to be entitled to such increase).
Simultaneously with providing such Notice of Redemption, the Company shall publish a notice containing this information on the Company’s website or through such other public medium as the Company may use at that time. At the Company’s written request delivered at least three Business Days prior to the Redemption Notice Date (unless a shorter period shall be acceptable to the Trustee), the Trustee shall give such Notice of Redemption, as prepared by the Company, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense.
(m)    No Notes may be redeemed if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a default by the Company in the payment of the Redemption Price with respect to such Notes).
Section 16.02    . Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once a Notice of Redemption is given, the Notes to be redeemed become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the Notice of Redemption, except for Notes which are converted pursuant to Article 14. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such redeemed Notes shall be paid at the Redemption Price stated in the Notice Redemption. Failure to give the Notice of Redemption or any defect in the Notice of Redemption to any Holder shall not affect the validity of the Notice of Redemption to any other Holder.
Section 16.03    . Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (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) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all Notes to be redeemed other than Notes or portions of Notes to be redeemed which on or prior thereto have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or have been converted. The Paying Agent shall as promptly as practicable return to the Company any money not required for that purpose because of conversion of Notes pursuant to Article 14. If such money is then held by the Company in trust and is not required for such purpose it shall be discharged from such trust.
If the Paying Agent holds money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price with respect to any Notes or which a Notice Redemption has been given, then, immediately on and after the Redemption Date, interest on such Notes shall cease to accrue whether or not the Notes are delivered to the Paying Agent, and all other rights of the Holders of such Notes shall terminate, other than the right to receive the Redemption Price of such Note. Nothing herein shall preclude the withholding of any taxes required by law to be withheld or deducted.
ARTICLE 17    
COLLATERAL AND SECURITY
Section 17.01    . Security Interest; Collateral Agent. (a) The due and punctual payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Purchase Price or Redemption Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, and Conversion Obligation with respect to, the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether on an Interest Payment Date, at maturity, by acceleration, repurchase, redemption, prepayment, demand or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal (including the Fundamental Change Purchase Price or Redemption Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes and performance of all other obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee, the Escrow Agent and the Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Notes, according to the terms hereunder or thereunder, are secured as provided in the Related Security Documents.
(f)    Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, and the Trustee hereby appoints U.S. Bank National Association as Collateral Agent, and consents and agrees to the terms of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents (including, without limitation, the provisions providing for foreclosure and release of Collateral and authorizing the Collateral Agent to enter into the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and any Related Security Document on its behalf) as the same may be in effect or may be amended or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and appoints U.S. Bank National Association as the Collateral Agent, and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to all rights, privileges, immunities and protections of the Trustee set forth in this Indenture, including but not limited to the right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified under Section 7.06, in the acceptance, execution, delivery and performance of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents as though fully set forth therein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities hereunder nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or the Company, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture and the Related Security Documents or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(g)    The Company consents and agrees to be bound, and, subject to Section 17.06, to cause the Subsidiary Guarantors to consent and agree to be bound by the terms of the Related Security Documents, as the same may be in effect from time to time, and agrees to perform its, and to cause the Subsidiary Guarantors to perform their, obligations thereunder in accordance therewith. The Company will deliver to the Trustee copies of all documents delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Related Security Documents, and the Company will, and, subject to Section 17.06, the Company will cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to, do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be required by the provisions of the Related Security Documents to assure and confirm to the Trustee that the Collateral Agent holds for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders duly created, enforceable and perfected Liens as contemplated by the Related Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted.
(h)    Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction) or under or in connection with any Related Security Document or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Trustee or any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, or any officer or Affiliate thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, any Related Security Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture or the Related Security Documents, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, or the Related Security Documents, or for any failure of any other party to this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, or the Related Security Documents to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, or the Related Security Documents or to inspect the properties, books, or records of the Company or any of its Affiliates.
(i)    No provision of this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, or any Related Security Document shall require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder or to take or omit to take any action hereunder or thereunder or take any action at the request or direction of Holders or the Trustee if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds is not assured to it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, or the Related Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders in an amount and in a form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability. The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described in this clause if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Company or the Holders to be sufficient.
(j)    Subject to Section 17.06 hereof, in each case that the Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder to take any action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder or under the Pledge and Escrow Agreement or any Related Security Document, the Collateral Agent may seek direction from the Trustee or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. If the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall request direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes with respect to any Action, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such Action unless and until the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall have received direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, and neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.
(k)    The Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Company referring to this Indenture, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article 6 or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes subject to this Article 17.
(l)    Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody thereof, neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto and neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for filing any financing or continuation statements or recording any documents or instruments in any public office at any time or times or otherwise perfecting or maintaining the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral. Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property and shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral, by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in good faith.
(m)    Each successor Trustee may become the successor Collateral Agent as and when the successor Trustee becomes the Trustee.
Section 17.02    . Interest Escrow. (a) On the date hereof, the Company shall (i) enter into the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and thereafter comply with the terms and provisions of such agreement and (ii) pledge the Pledged Collateral to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders in such amount as will be sufficient to fund, when due, the total aggregate amount of the first six scheduled semi-annual interest payments on the Notes, excluding Additional Interest, if any. The Pledged Collateral shall be pledged by the Company to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders and shall be held by the Escrow Agent in the Escrow Account pending disposition pursuant to the Pledge and Escrow Agreement.
(p)    The Company will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be necessary, or as may be required by the provisions of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, to assure and confirm to the Escrow Agent and the Collateral Agent the security interest in the Pledged Collateral contemplated hereby, by the Pledge and Escrow Agreement or any Related Security Document, so as to render the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby, according to the intent and purposes herein and therein expressed. The Company shall take, or cause to be taken, any and all actions reasonably required to create and maintain, as security for the obligations of the Company under this Indenture and the Notes, a valid, enforceable and perfected first priority Lien in and on all the Pledged Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, superior to and prior to the rights of third Persons.
(q)    The release of any portion of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the Pledge and Escrow Agreement will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof if and to the extent the Pledged Collateral are released pursuant to this Indenture and the Pledge and Escrow Agreement.
Section 17.03    . Recording and Opinion. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent (if other than the Trustee), on or within one month of December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2015, (a) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that no further action was necessary to maintain the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral described in both the applicable UCC-1 financing statement and the Security Agreement and for which perfection under the UCC of the Company’s or applicable Subsidiary Guarantor’s jurisdiction of organization may occur by the filing of a UCC-1 financing statement with the appropriate filing office of the applicable party’s jurisdiction of organization, and (b) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all action required by the Related Security Documents and the Pledge and Escrow Agreement to maintain and perfect or continue the perfection of the security interests created by the Related Security Documents and the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, if applicable, have been taken, and reciting the details of such action or referring to prior Officer's Certificates in which such details are given.
Section 17.04    . Authorization of Actions to Be Taken by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent Under the Related Security Documents. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and the terms of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents, the Trustee may (but shall have no obligation to, subject to Article 6 hereof), in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, direct, on behalf of the Holders of Notes, the Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:
(i)    enforce any of the terms of the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Document; and
(ii)    collect and receive any and all amounts payable in respect of the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents.
(b)    Subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents, the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent will have power to institute and maintain such suits and proceedings as it may deem expedient to prevent any impairment of the Collateral by any acts that may be unlawful or in violation of this Indenture, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement or the Related Security Documents, and such suits and proceedings as may be necessary to preserve or protect the interests of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the interests of the Holders of Notes in the Collateral (including the power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interest under the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents or be prejudicial to the interests of the Holders or of the Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent).
Section 17.05    . Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee under the Related Security Documents. The Trustee and/or the Collateral Agent is authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Holders distributed under the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and Related Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture and the Pledge and Escrow Agreement, with respect to the Pledged Collateral.
Section 17.06    . Termination of Security Interest; Release of Collateral. (a) Collateral (other than the Pledged Collateral) will be released automatically from the Liens securing the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes and the Related Security Documents without the consent or further action of any Person:
(x)    in whole or in part, as applicable, upon the sale, transfer, exclusive license, agreement or other disposition of such property or assets (including a disposition resulting from eminent domain, condemnation or similar circumstances) by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to the extent not prohibited by Section 4.10; provided that, solely to the extent that such transaction constitutes the sale, conveyance, assignment, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s property and assets, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, such transaction complies with Article 11; and that the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that such transaction complies with the provisions of this Section 17.06;
(xi)    with the consent of the Holders of at least 66 2/3% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, concurrently with the entry of the Company into any Permitted Credit Facility, the Liens securing the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under any Related Security Documents will be automatically released without the consent of or action by any Person, with respect to the Borrowing Base Assets, to the extent such Borrowing Base Assets secure the obligations outstanding under such Permitted Credit Facility and the release of such Liens is required by the terms of such Permitted Credit Facility; provided, however that the Company shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor, immediately upon the termination of any such Permitted Credit Facility or the termination of any restrictions imposed by such Permitted Credit Facility on the grant of Liens on such Borrowing Base Assets, to grant the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent’s and the Holders’ security interests in respect of any such Borrowing Base Assets in respect of which the Liens securing the obligations of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes and the Related Security Documents had been released consistent with the provisions of this Indenture and the Related Security Documents.
(e)    Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or liability for determining the Company’s compliance with this Section 17.06, but instead may rely on the Officer’s Certificates issued by the Company under this Section 17.06.
(f)    The security interests granted under this Indenture and all Related Security Documents will terminate upon the full and final payment and performance of all obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) of the Company and any other obligors, if any and as applicable, under this Indenture, the Notes, the Pledge and Escrow Agreement and the Related Security Documents.
(g)    The release of any Collateral from the terms of the Related Security Documents shall not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof or affect the Lien of this Indenture or the Related Security Documents if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture or the Related Security Documents or upon the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture.

(i)    assign, transfer and deliver to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Collateral Agent has not encumbered the released assets, such of the Collateral or any part thereof to be released as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents;
(ii)    execute and deliver UCC financing statement amendments or releases (which shall be prepared by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor) to the extent necessary to delete such Collateral or any part thereof to be released from the description of assets in any previously filed financing statements; and
(iii)    execute and deliver such documents, instruments or statements (which shall be prepared by the Company) and take such other action as the Company may request to cause to be released and reconveyed to the Company, or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, such Collateral or any part thereof to be released and to evidence or confirm that such Collateral or any part thereof to be released has been released from the Liens of each of this Indenture and each of the Collateral Documents.

Further, the Company will not be required to comply with all or any portion of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act if it determines, in good faith based on advice of counsel, that under the terms of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act and/or any interpretation or guidance as to the meaning thereof of the Commission, including “no action” letters or exemptive orders, whether or not issued to or granted to the Company, all or any portion of Section 314(d) of the Trust Indenture Act is inapplicable to one or a series of released Collateral.

ARTICLE 18    
GUARANTEES
Section 18.01    . Note Guarantee. (a) Subject to this Article 18, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, on a senior basis, to each Holder and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that: (i) the principal (including the Fundamental Charge Purchase Price or Redemption Price, if applicable) of and accrued and unpaid interest on each of the Notes shall be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.
(r)    The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver, amendment or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives 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 Note Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, the Related Security Documents and this Indenture, or pursuant to Section 18.06.
(s)    If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to the Company or the Subsidiary Guarantors, any amount paid either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Note Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect.
(t)    Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) guaranteed hereby. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 for the purposes of this Note Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (ii) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for the purpose of this Note Guarantee. The Subsidiary Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Note Guarantees.
(u)    Each Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on the Notes or the Note Guarantees, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
(v)    In case any provision of any Note Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
(w)    Each payment to be made by a Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of its Note Guarantee shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any kind or nature.
(x)    Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any such Guarantee or any such release, termination or discharge.
Section 18.02    . Limitation on Guarantor Liability. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Note Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar U.S. federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Note Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Holders and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article 18, result in the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Note Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment under its Note Guarantee shall be entitled upon payment in full of all Note Guaranteed obligations under this Indenture to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s pro rata portion of such payment based on the respective net assets of all the Subsidiary Guarantors at the time of such payment determined in accordance with GAAP.
Section 18.03    . Execution and Delivery. (a) To evidence a Note Guarantee set forth in Section 18.01, each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to which it will agree to be a Subsidiary Guarantor and become bound by the terms of this Indenture applicable to Subsidiary Guarantors, including without limitation, this Article 18.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]
Cyan, Inc.
8.0% Convertible Senior Secured Note due 2019
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 8.0% Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”), limited to the aggregate principal amount of $50,000,000 (subject to the terms of the Indenture) all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), 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, 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. In the event of conflict between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.
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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price on the Fundamental Change Purchase 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 Fundamental Change Purchase Price

A-7
110700877 v8



or Redemption 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 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.
Prior to December 20, 2017, the Notes will not be redeemable. On or after December 20, 2017, the Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes, at the Company’s option, if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending within three Trading Days prior to the Redemption Notice Date is greater than or equal to 140% of the Conversion Price on each applicable Trading Day. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.
The Notes are guaranteed, on a full, joint and several basis, by any Material Domestic Subsidiary of the Company and secured by a first-priority lien, subject only to Permitted Liens and certain excluded assets, on substantially all of the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including license agreements, general intangibles, accounts, instruments, investment property, intellectual property and any proceeds of the foregoing.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Company’s obligations under this Note are secured in part until December 15, 2017 by a pledge of an Escrow Account and the assets therein pursuant to a Pledge and Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Account will contain an amount of Pledged Collateral sufficient to fund, when due, the total aggregate amount of the first six scheduled semi-annual interest payments on the Note, excluding additional interest, if any.
Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Purchase 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,
