(the "PURCHASER"), upon the terms set forth in a purchase agreement, dated as of June 11, 2001 (the "PURCHASE AGREEMENT"), $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the "NOTES"). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of June __, 2001 (the "INDENTURE"), between the Company and Firstar Bank, N.A. as Trustee (the "TRUSTEE"). Under the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company's Class A common stock, $.01 par value per share (the "CONVERSION SHARES"; the Notes and the Conversion Shares are collectively referred to as the "Securities"), at the option of the holders thereof at any time following the date of original issuance thereof at the Conversion Price (as defined in the Notes) set forth in the Notes, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the Indenture. As an inducement to the Purchaser to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees with the Purchaser, for the benefit of the holder(s) of the Notes, from time to time, (including, without limitation, the Purchaser) and the holder(s), from time to time, of the Conversion Shares (collectively, the "HOLDERS"), as follows: 1. RESALE SHELF REGISTRATION. (a) The Company shall, at its cost, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 150 days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") and thereafter shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective a registration statement (the "SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), within 220 days of the Closing Date, relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 8(d) hereof) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the "SHELF REGISTRATION"); Registration Rights Agreement - Page 2 PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Holder (other than the Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. (b) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities, for a period of two (2) years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 2(h) below or by the last sentence of this Section 1(b)) from the date of its effectiveness or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer Transfer Restricted Securities as defined in Section 8(d) hereof (in any such case, such period being called the "SHELF REGISTRATION PERIOD"). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Securities during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable law or (ii) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 2(b)(v) below, such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons and the Company thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 2(h) hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective prior to the 180th day following the Closing Date, the period of effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement provided for in this Section 1(b) shall be extended by the number of days in the period from the effectiveness date of such Shelf Registration Statement to the 180th day following the Closing Date. (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (d) Each Holder agrees that if such Holder wishes to sell such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus, it will do so in accordance with this Section 1(d). Each Holder wishing to sell Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus agrees to deliver a Notice and Questionnaire (the form of which is attached as ANNEX A hereto) to the Company. The Company will include in the Shelf Registration Statement as a selling securityholder each Holder that delivers such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Shelf Registration Statement any Holder which fails to provide such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date but otherwise provides such properly completed Notice and Registration Rights Agreement - Page 3 Questionnaire prior to the commencement of the Shelf Registration Period. Except as described above and below, the Company shall have no obligation to include in the Shelf Registration Statement a Holder which fails to provide the Company with such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. From and after the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall, as promptly as is practicable after the date a properly completed Notice and Questionnaire is delivered, and in any event within thirty (30) days after such date, (i) if required by law, file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law, file a supplement to the related prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with applicable law and, if the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practical, but in any event by the date that is thirty (30) business days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this clause to be filed; (ii) provide such Holder copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); PROVIDED, THAT if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a period in which the use of such prospectus is suspended pursuant to Section 2(h) hereof, the Company shall so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of such suspension period. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that has not supplied the requisite information as required by and in accordance with the procedures and time periods set forth in this Section 1(d) as a selling securityholder in any Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 2. SHELF REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

(c) The Company shall make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement. (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference).

The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. Registration Rights Agreement - Page 5 (f) Prior to any public offering of the Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities for offer and sale under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. (g) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. (h) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 2(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall as required hereby prepare and file a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities included within the coverage of such Shelf Registration Statement, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may delay filing and distributing any such supplement or amendment (and continue the suspension of the use of the related prospectus) if the Company determines in good faith that such supplement or amendment would, in the reasonable judgement of the Company, (i) interfere with or affect the negotiation or completion of a transaction that is being contemplated by the Company or (ii) involve initial or continuing disclosure obligations that are not in the best interests of the Company's stockholders at such time; provided, further, that neither such delay nor such suspension shall extend for a period of more than 90 consecutive days or an aggregate of 180 days in any twelve-month period. If the Company notifies the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 2(b) above to suspend the use of such prospectus until the requisite changes to such prospectus have been made, then the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 1(b) above shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 2(h). Registration Rights Agreement - Page 6 (i) Not later than the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company will provide CUSIP numbers for the Notes and the Conversion Shares registered under the Shelf Registration Statement and provide the Trustee with a certificate for the Notes, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company.

(k) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "TRUST INDENTURE ACT"), in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. (l) Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Securities, that no Holder of Securities shall be entitled to sell any of such Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement or to receive a prospectus relating thereto, unless such Holder has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire as required pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1(d) hereof and the information set forth in the next sentence. Each Holder agrees promptly to furnish the Company all information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not misleading and any other information regarding such Holder and the distribution of such Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request. (m) In the event of any underwritten public offering, the Company shall enter into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as any managing underwriter of such offering and Holder of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to facilitate an underwritten offering pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement by any Holders unless the offering relates to at least $20,000,000 principal amount of the Notes or an equivalent number of Conversion Shares (as adjusted for any stock dividends, stock splits and capital changes).

DEMAND REGISTRATION. (a) From and after the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Holders of at least 50% of the outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities, subject to Section 3(e) below, (the "INITIATING HOLDERS") may request, in writing, registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Transfer Restricted Securities. Within 10 days after receipt of any such request, the Company will give notice of such request to all other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities ("OTHER HOLDERS"). Thereafter, the Company will use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration on an appropriate form under the Securities Act and will include in such registration, subject to Section 3(e) below, all Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Initiating Holders and Other Holders with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the receipt of the Company's notice. All registrations initiated by an Initiating Holder pursuant to this Section 3(a) are referred to herein as "DEMAND REGISTRATIONS." Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company need not effect any requested Demand Registration unless the expected gross proceeds of such registration exceed $15,000,000. (b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3(a) above to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to Section 3(a) above: (i) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; Registration Rights Agreement - Page 8 (ii) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on one hundred twenty (120) days immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable effects to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to Section 3(a), and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; (iv) If the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company's obligation to use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply under Section 3(a) shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of receipt of written request from an Initiating Holder; provided that the Company may not exercise this deferral right more than once per twelve (12) month period. (c) A registration requested pursuant to Section 3(a) shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has been declared effective by the Commission, (ii) if after it has become effective, such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or the order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason, and, as a result thereof, the Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby have not been sold or (iii) the registration statement does not remain effective for a period expiring the earlier of 90 days after the effective date thereof or the completion of the distribution of the Transfer Restricted Securities included in such registration statement. The Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities shall be permitted to withdraw all or any part of the Transfer Restricted Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effective date of such Demand Registration; provided that in the event of, and concurrently with such withdrawal, the Holders responsible for such Demand Registration shall either (i) pay or reimburse the Company for all fees and expenses (including counsel fees and expense) incurred by them and the Company prior to such withdrawal or (ii) agree to forfeit one of its Demand Registration rights hereunder. (d) In the event that a registration pursuant to Section 3(a) is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as part of the notice given pursuant to Section 3(a). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in the underwriting arrangements required by this Section 3, and the inclusion of such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities in the underwriting to the extent requested shall be limited to the extent provided herein. The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter Registration Rights Agreement - Page 9 selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holder, but subject to the Company's reasonable approval. (e) If the Company includes in any underwritten Demand Registration any securities which are not Transfer Restricted Securities and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Transfer Restricted Securities proposed to be included exceeds the number of Transfer Restricted Securities and other securities which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the Transfer Restricted Securities requested to be included which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold, by the Initiating Holders initiating the Demand Registration, (ii) second, the Transfer Restricted Securities proposed to be included in such registration by the Other Holders exercising their registration rights hereunder, pro rata based upon the total number of Transfer Restricted Securities which such Other Holders propose to include in such registration and (iii) third, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by any other holders as determined by the Company and the managing underwriters. 4.

Such requests for inclusion shall be in writing and delivered to the Company within 15 days after the Holders' receipt of such notice and shall specify the number of Transfer Restricted Securities intended to be disposed of and the intended method of distribution thereof. Any Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall have the right to withdraw its request for inclusion of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any registration statement pursuant to this Section 4(a) by giving written notice to the Company of its request to withdraw. The Company may withdraw a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the time it becomes effective. (b) If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 4(a). In such event the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 4(a) shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Transfer Restricted Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Registration Rights Agreement - Page 10 (c) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders (including Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities) of the same securities proposed to be sold by the Company and (iii) third, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders (including Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities) of substantially the same securities proposed to be sold by the Company, in each of clauses (ii) and (iii) pro rata among such holders exercising their respective piggyback registration rights thereof based upon the total number of securities which such holders beneficially own.

DEMAND AND PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In the case of each registration effected by the Company pursuant to Sections 3 and 4, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense the Company will: (a) With respect to Demand Registrations, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 120 days after the date the Company is in receipt of written requests by the Other Holders for inclusion in such Demand Registration (the "DEMAND INITIATION DATE")) and thereafter shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective a registration statement on an appropriate form under the Securities Act, within 180 days after the Demand Initiation Date, relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities; (b) Furnish to the Holders participating in such registration and to the underwriters of the securities being registered such reasonable number of copies of the Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus and such other Registration Rights Agreement - Page 11 documents as such underwriters may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public offering of such securities; (c) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with such registration statements as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such registration statement; (d) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders, provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; and (e) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such offering.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, each agent representative, employee, officer and director of any such Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder and such persons are referred to collectively as the "INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act Registration Rights Agreement - Page 12 or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered by such Holder under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, a copy of the final prospectus if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder; PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. (b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth Registration Rights Agreement - Page 13 immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnified party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the sale of the Securities, pursuant to the Registration Statement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by Registration Rights Agreement - Page 14 reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7(d), the Holders shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. (e) The agreements contained in this Section 7 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 8. ADDITIONAL INTEREST UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. (a) Additional interest (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST") with respect to the Securities (except with respect to (iii) below, which such Additional Interest shall only apply to the Securities held by the affected Holder(s)) shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below being herein called a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"): (i) If on or prior to the 150th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission; (ii) If on or prior to the 220th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission; (iii) The Company fails with respect to a Holder of Notes that supplies the Notice and Questionnaire described in Section 1(d) above to amend or Registration Rights Agreement - Page 15 supplement the Shelf Registration Statement in the manner set forth in Section 1(d) above; (iv) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because the Company suspends the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement beyond the periods set forth in Section 2(h) above; (v) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein and the Company fails to cure the Shelf Registration Statement within fifteen (15) business days by filing a post-effective amendment or report pursuant to the Exchange Act; (vi) If on or prior to the 120th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been filed with the Commission; or (vii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been declared effective by the Commission. Each of the foregoing will constitute a Registration Default whatever the reason for any such event and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is beyond the control of the Company or pursuant to operation of law or as a result of any action or inaction by the Commission. Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes and Conversion Shares that are Transfer Restricted Shares over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST RATE"). (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 8(a)(v) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above Registration Rights Agreement - Page 16 paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 8(a) above will be payable in cash to the "RECORD HOLDER" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) on the "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATES" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) with respect to the Notes and the Conversion Shares. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by (1) multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by (x) in the case of the Notes, the "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) or (y) in the case of the Conversion Shares, the "APPLICABLE CONVERSION PRICE" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) and then (2) multiplying the product of the calculation set forth in (c)(1) above by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applied during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. (d) The following terms shall have the following meaning(s): The term "APPLICABLE CONVERSION PRICE" means the Applicable Principal Amount divided by the Conversion Price set forth in the Notes, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the Indenture, in effect as of the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 following such Registration Default in the case of the first such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, the last Conversion Price that was in effect when the Notes were last outstanding. The term "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of maturity of Notes means the initial issue price of such Note ($1,000) through the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 following such Registration Default in the case of such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, such sum calculated as if such Notes were then outstanding. The term "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATE" means each June 15 or December 15 in the case of the Notes and the Conversion SHARES. The term "RECORD HOLDER" means with respect to any Damages Payment Date relating to any Note or Conversion Shares as to which any Additional Interest has accrued, the registered holder of such Note or Conversion Shares, as the case may be, fifteen (15) days prior to the next succeeding Damages Payment Date. The term "TRANSFER RESTRICTED SECURITIES" means each Security until the earliest of (i) the date on which such Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) to the extent such Security is held by a non-affiliate of the Company, the date on which such Security may be sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) to the extent such Security is held by an affiliate of the Company, the date on which such Security is sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (iv) the date on Registration Rights Agreement - Page 17 which such Security is saleable by the Holder thereof pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the registration rights granted hereunder shall terminate as to each Holder and with respect to such Securities upon the date that such Securities are no longer Transfer Restricted Securities. 9. SEC FILINGS. The Company shall use its best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. The Company will provide an executed counterpart of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of the Notes identified to the Company by the Purchaser upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 10. UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering ("MANAGING UNDERWRITERS") will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering and such selection shall be subject to the Company's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 11. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent or conflicts with the legal rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be limited or in any way prevented from entering into any agreement granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that do not conflict with the registration rights of the Holders hereunder. Registration Rights Agreement - Page 18 (b) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Conversion Shares constituting Transfer Restricted Securities (with Holders of Notes deemed to be the Holders, for purposes of this Section 11(b), of the number of outstanding shares of Conversion Shares into which such Notes are or would be convertible or exchangeable as of the date on which such consent is requested). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence; PROVIDED, FURTHER, without the consent of each Holder, no amendment, modification or supplement may alter the provisions relating to the payment of Additional Interest. Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 11, whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Transfer Restricted Securities or is delivered to such Holder. Each Holder may waive compliance with respect to any obligation of the Company under this Agreement as it may apply or be enforced by such particular Holder. (c) NOTICES.

(k) STANDOFF AGREEMENT. In connection with the public offering of any of the Company's debt or equity securities, each Holder and its affiliates (so long as they beneficially own at least five percent (5%) of the capital stock of the Company) agrees, that upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company's securities, not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any Securities without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 120 days) from the effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the underwriters; provided that the (i) executive officers and directors of the Company who own securities of the Company and (ii) holders of five percent (5%) or more of the capital stock of the Company also agree to such restrictions.

A-5 APPENDIX A 1. ARRANGEMENT. Any plan, contract, arrangement or understanding, whether or not set forth in a formal document. 2. ASSOCIATE. The term "associate" means: (a) Any corporation or organization, except the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries, of which you are an executive officer or partner or of which you, together with other officers or directors of the Company, are, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of equity securities. (b) Any trust or other estate in which you have a substantial beneficial interest or as to which you serve as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity. (c) Any relative, your spouse or any relative of your spouse who resides with you or who is a director or officer of the Company or its subsidiaries. 3. BENEFICIAL OWNER. A "beneficial owner" of securities is any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise has or shares: (a) Voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; and/or, (b) Investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of, such security. Furthermore, a "beneficial owner" of a security includes any person who has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within sixty (60) days. The right to acquire beneficial ownership could (but need not necessarily) be through (i) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (ii) the conversion of a security, (iii) a power to revoke or automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement, or (iv) otherwise. A "beneficial owner" also includes any person who, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership as part of a plan to evade the reporting requirements of any federal or state securities act. Securities owned beneficially would include not only securities held by you for your own benefit, whether in bearer form or registered in your own name or otherwise, but would also include securities held by others for your benefit or securities from which you obtain benefits substantially equivalent to those of ownership (regardless of whether or how they are registered), such as, for example, securities held for you by banks or other custodians, brokers (whether in your name, their name or in "street name"), executors, administrators, or trustees (including trusts in which you have only a remainder interest) and securities held for your account by pledgees, and securities owned by a partnership in which you are a member, and securities owned by any corporation in which you and your associates own 10% or more of the stock. A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities beneficially owned by his spouse, his minor children, or any relative sharing his home. "Indirectly," when used to refer to beneficial ownership of securities, means ownership through another such as a controlled corporation, member of the family, estate, trust, partnership or other entity.

ARTICLE 2 THE SECURITIES SECTION 2.1 FORM AND DATING The Initial Securities and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the respective forms set forth in EXHIBIT A, which Exhibit is incorporated in and made part of this Indenture. The Add On Securities shall be substantially in the same form as the Initial Securities with such variations as may be specified in accordance with Section 2.15. Notwithstanding any differences among them, all Securities issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together as a single class, except on matters relating to changes to the interest rate or the Conversion Price of a particular series of the Securities. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. (a) RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITIES AND RESTRICTED CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. All of the Securities are initially being offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A -10- (collectively, "QIBS" or individually, each a "QIB") in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and shall be issued initially in the form, at the option of the Initial Purchaser, of one or more (i) Restricted Global Securities, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the depositary, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") (such depositary, or any successor thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the "DEPOSITARY"), and registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co., or (ii) Restricted Certificated Securities, and in each case shall be duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Securities Custodian as hereinafter provided, subject in each case to compliance with the Applicable Procedures. (b) GLOBAL SECURITIES IN GENERAL. Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, redemptions, purchases or conversions of such Securities. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Securities Custodian in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Securities Custodian. Members of, or participants in, the Depositary ("AGENT MEMBERS") shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary or under any Global Security, and the Depositary (including, for this purpose, its nominee) may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall (A) prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or (B) impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security. (c) CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. In addition to the initial issuance of Restricted Certificated Securities, if any, Certificated Securities shall be issued pursuant to Section 2.12(a)(1) hereof. SECTION 2.2 EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature attested by the manual or facsimile signature of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company. Typographic and other minor errors or defects in any such facsimile signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security which has been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless. A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery Initial Securities for original issue in the aggregate principal amount of up to $50,000,000 upon receipt of a written order or orders of the Company signed by two Officers of the Company (a "COMPANY ORDER"). The Company Order shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated, shall provide that all such Securities will be represented by a Restricted -11- Global Security and the date on which each original issue of Securities is to be authenticated. Subject to Section 2.15, the Company may issue Add On Securities. The Trustee shall act as the initial authenticating agent. Thereafter, the Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent shall have the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. SECTION 2.3 REGISTRAR, PAYING AGENT AND CONVERSION AGENT The Company shall maintain one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (each, a "REGISTRAR"), one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for payment (each, a "PAYING AGENT"), one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for conversion (each, a "CONVERSION AGENT") and one or more offices or agencies where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company will at all times maintain a Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. One of the Registrars (the "PRIMARY REGISTRAR") shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or agent for service of notices and demands in any place required by this Indenture, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any Affiliate of the Company may act as Paying Agent (except for the purposes of Section 6.1 and Article 10). The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as Paying Agent, Registrar, Primary Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent. SECTION 2.4 PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Securities, the Company shall deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest, if any, so becoming due. Subject to Section 5.7, a Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Security holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest, if any, on the Securities, and if the Paying Agent is different than the Trustee, shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities) in making any such payment. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall, before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal of or interest on any Securities, segregate the money and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent (other than the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. -12- SECTION 2.5 SECURITY HOLDER LISTS The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Security holders. If the Trustee is not the Primary Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee on or before each semiannual interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Securityholders. SECTION 2.6 TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable additional requirements contained in Section 2.12, when a Security is presented to a Registrar with a request to register a transfer thereof or to exchange such Security for an equal principal amount of Securities of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment form and, if applicable, a transfer certificate each in the form included in EXHIBIT A, and in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, upon surrender of any Security for registration of transfer or exchange at an office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 2.3, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities of a like aggregate principal amount at the Registrar's request. Any exchange or transfer shall be without charge, except that the Company or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, and provided, that this sentence shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.7, 2.10, 2.12(a)(1), 3.6, 3.11, 4.2 (last paragraph) or 11.5. Neither the Company, any Registrar nor the Trustee shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (a) any Securities for a period of 15 days next preceding any mailing of a notice of Securities to be redeemed or any interest payment date, (b) any Securities or portions thereof selected or called for redemption (except, in the case of redemption of a Security in part, the portion not to be redeemed) or (c) any Securities or portions thereof in respect of which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn by the Holder thereof (except, in the case of the purchase of a Security in part, the portion not to be purchased). All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt and entitled to the same benefits, and under identical terms under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (b) Any Registrar appointed pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall provide to the Trustee such information as the Trustee may reasonably require in connection with the delivery by such Registrar of Securities upon transfer or exchange of Securities. (c) Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder's Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities law. 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 Security (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or other beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) 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 -13- express requirements hereof. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the actions or omissions of the Depositary, or for the accuracy of the books or records of the Depositary. SECTION 2.7 REPLACEMENT SECURITIES If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Company, a Registrar or the Trustee, or the Company, a Registrar and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the Company, the applicable Registrar and the Trustee such Security or indemnity as will be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, such Registrar or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute, and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, or is about to be redeemed or purchased by the Company pursuant to Article 3, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay, redeem or purchase such Security, as the case may be. Upon the issuance of any new Securities under this Section 2.7, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee or the Registrar) in connection therewith. Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section 2.7 are (to the extent lawful) exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. SECTION 2.8 OUTSTANDING SECURITIES Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee, except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Company receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. If a Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on a Redemption Date, a Change in Control Purchase Date or the Final Maturity Date money sufficient to pay the principal of (including premium, if any) and accrued interest on Securities (or portions thereof) payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof, as the case may be) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. Subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.9, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security. -14- SECTION 2.9 TREASURY SECURITIES In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any notice, direction, waiver or consent given while this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, Securities owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or by any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor shall be disregarded, except that, for purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such notice, direction, waiver or consent, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to the Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. SECTION 2.10 TEMPORARY SECURITIES Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company with the consent of the Trustee considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. SECTION 2.11 CANCELLATION The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent shall forward to the Trustee or its agent any Securities surrendered to them for transfer, exchange, payment or conversion. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel, in accordance with its standard procedures, all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, redemption, payment, conversion or cancellation and shall deliver the canceled Securities to the Company. All Securities which are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Final Maturity Date shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company may not hold or resell such Securities or issue any new Securities to replace any such Securities or any Securities that any Holder has converted pursuant to Article 4. Without limitation to the foregoing, any Securities acquired by any investment bankers or other purchasers pursuant to Section 3.7 shall be surrendered for conversion and thereafter cancelled, and may not be reoffered, sold or otherwise transferred. SECTION 2.12 ADDITIONAL TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE REQUIREMENTS (a) TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF GLOBAL SECURITIES. (1) Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for interests in the Global Securities if (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Securities or if it at any time ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, if so required by applicable law or regulation and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In either case, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to delivery promptly), authenticate and deliver Certificated Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Securities in exchange therefor. Only Restricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities, and only Unrestricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Unrestricted Global Securities. Certificated Securities issued in exchange for -15- beneficial interests in Global Securities shall be registered in such names and shall be in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered such Certificated Securities to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. Such exchange shall be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. (2) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.12(a)(1), a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except 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. (b) TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities in accordance with Section 2.12(a)(1) of this Indenture, on or after such event when Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to a Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of the Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of Certificated Securities only; or (y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of Certificated Securities of other authorized denominations, such Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for register of transfer or exchange: (1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso to the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a); and (2) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (i) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, or such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); (ii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (iii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred (i) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) and, if the Company or -16- such Registrar so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information reasonably acceptable to the Company and such Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act. (c) TRANSFER OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN AN UNRESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY. Any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security may upon request, subject to the Applicable Procedures, transfer such beneficial interest to a person who is required or permitted to take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions, or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security and the following additional information and documents in such form as is customary for the Depositary from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of the person having such beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security (all of which may be submitted by facsimile or electronically): (1) if such beneficial interest is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (2) if such beneficial interest is being transferred (i) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) and, if the Company or the Trustee so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Trustee to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the Trustee, as a Registrar and Securities Custodian, shall reduce or cause to be reduced the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by the appropriate principal amount and shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security by a like principal amount. Such transfer shall otherwise be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. If no Unrestricted Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver an Unrestricted Global Security. (d) TRANSFER OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN AN UNRESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY. Any person having a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security may upon request, subject to the Applicable Procedures, transfer such beneficial interest to a person who is required or permitted to take delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Global Security (it being understood that only QIBs may own beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities). Upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee, on behalf of any person having a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security and, in such form as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of the person having such beneficial interest in the Unrestricted Global Security (all of which may be submitted by facsimile or electronically) a certification from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such beneficial interest is being transferred to a person that the transferor reasonably believes is a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A. The Trustee, as a Registrar and Securities Custodian, shall reduce or cause to be reduced the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security by the appropriate principal amount and shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by a like principal amount. Such transfer shall otherwise be effected in accordance with the -17- Applicable Procedures. If no Restricted Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver a Restricted Global Security. (e) TRANSFERS OF CERTIFICATED SECURITIES FOR BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN GLOBAL SECURITIES. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities and, thereafter, the events or conditions specified in Section 2.12(a)(1) which required such exchange shall cease to exist, the Company shall mail notice to the Trustee and to the Holders stating that Holders may exchange Certificated Securities for interests in Global Securities by complying with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and briefly describing such procedures and the events or circumstances requiring that such notice be given. Thereafter, if Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to a Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of such Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, which request shall specify whether such Global Security will be a Restricted Global Security or an Unrestricted Global Security; or (y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of beneficial interests in a Global Security, which beneficial interests will be owned by the Holder transferring such Certificated Securities (provided that in the case of such an exchange, Restricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Restricted Global Securities and Unrestricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Unrestricted Global Securities), the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested by canceling such Certificated Security and causing, or directing the Securities Custodian to cause, the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Security to be increased accordingly and, if no such Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Global Security; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange: (1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso to the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a); (2) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (i) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (ii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to (i) an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate), and, if the Company or the Registrar so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information -18- reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Trustee to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act; (3) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by a certification from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB (which, in the case of an exchange, shall be such Holder) in accordance with Rule 144A; (4) in the case of an Unrestricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request need not be accompanied by any additional information or documents; and (5) in the case of an Unrestricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by a certification from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such Unrestricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB (which, in the case of an exchange, shall be such Holder) in accordance with Rule 144A. (f) LEGENDS- (1) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (2) and (3), each Global Security and Certificated Security (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or upon registration of transfer or replacement thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the form called for by footnote 2 to EXHIBIT A hereto (each a "TRANSFER RESTRICTED SECURITY" for so long as it is required by this Indenture to bear such legend). Each Transfer Restricted Security shall have attached thereto a certificate (a "TRANSFER CERTIFICATE") in substantially the form called for by footnote 5 to EXHIBIT A hereto. (2) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (w) after the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales of the Securities under Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act, (x) pursuant to Rule 144, (y) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (z) pursuant to any other available exemption (other than Rule 144A) from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (z), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144: (i) in the case of any Restricted Certificated Security, any Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Restricted Certificated Security for an Unrestricted Certificated Security, or (under the circumstances described in Section 2.12(e)) to transfer such Restricted Certificated Security to a transferee who shall take such Security in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, and in each case shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Security; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Holder of such Restricted Certificated Security shall, in connection with such exchange or transfer, comply with the other applicable provisions of this Section 2.12; and (ii) in the case of any beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, the Trustee shall permit the beneficial owner thereof to transfer such beneficial interest to a transferee who shall take such interest in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security and shall rescind any restriction on transfer of such beneficial interest; -19- PROVIDED, that such Unrestricted Global Security shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a)(2); and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the owner of such beneficial interest shall, in connection with such transfer, comply with the other applicable provisions of this Section 2.12. (3) Upon the exchange, registration of transfer or replacement of Securities not bearing the legend described in paragraph (1) above, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities that do not bear such legend and that do not have a Transfer Certificate attached thereto. (4) After the expiration of the holding period pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act, the Company may with the consent of the Holder of a Restricted Global Security or Restricted Certificated Security, remove any restriction of transfer on such Security, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities that do not bear such legend and that do not have a Transfer Certificate attached thereto. (g) TRANSFERS TO THE COMPANY. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities shall prohibit the sale or other transfer of any Securities (including beneficial interests in Global Securities) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which Securities shall thereupon be cancelled in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2.11. SECTION 2.13 CUSIP NUMBERS The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption or purchase as a convenience to 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 Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption or purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption or purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers. SECTION 2.14 DEFAULTED INTEREST Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date ("DEFAULTED INTEREST"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant regular record date, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company as follows. The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit 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 Interest as in this section provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment, and notify the Trustee thereof. The Trustee shall, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be given to each Holder of Securities pursuant to Section 12.2, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the special record date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be -20- paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on such special record date. Alternatively, the Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon any such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this section, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. SECTION 2.15 ADD ON SECURITIES (a) The Company may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Indenture, create and issue Add On Securities, without the consent of the Holders; provided, however, that so long as the Initial Purchaser remains a Holder, no Add On Securities shall be issued which would result in the aggregate principal amount of all Add On Securities issued pursuant to this Section 2.15 exceeding $49,000,000 unless consented to in writing by the Initial Purchaser. The Add On Securities shall have terms and conditions identical to those of the outstanding Securities, except that Add On Securities: (i) may have a different Issue Date than other the outstanding Securities; (ii) may have a different interest rate than is payable on the other outstanding Securities; (iii) may have a different Conversion Price than other outstanding Securities; and (iv) may have terms specified in the Add On Security Board Resolutions or Add On Security Supplemental Indenture for such Add On Securities making appropriate adjustments to this ARTICLE II and EXHIBIT A (and related definitions) applicable to such Add On Securities in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws) which are not adverse in any material respect to the Holder of any outstanding Securities (other than such Add On Securities) and which shall not affect the rights or duties of the Trustee. (b) In authenticating any Add On Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Add On Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon: (i) a Company Order; (ii) the Add On Security Board Resolutions or Add On Security Supplemental Indenture relating thereto; (iii) an Officers' Certificate complying with Section 12.4; and (iv) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 12.4 stating, -21- (A) that the forms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or by an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.15 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (B) the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or by an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.15 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (C) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any customary conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits provided in the Indenture, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the enforcement of such obligations may be subject to bankruptcy laws or insolvency laws or other similar laws, general principles of equity and such other qualifications as such counsel shall conclude are customary or do not materially affect the rights of the Holders of such Securities; (D) that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery of the Securities have been complied with; and (E) such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. (c) If such forms or terms have been so established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities: (i) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken; (ii) if the Trustee by its committee of Trust Officers in good faith determines that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any outstanding Securities; or (iii) if the issue of such Add On Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties and immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. (d) Add On Securities shall be a separate series of Securities under this Indenture, unless (i) no "original issue discount" within the meaning of Section 1257 of the Code results from the issuance of such Add On Securities; and (ii) the terms of such Add On Securities are identical to the terms of the Initial Securities; except for the Issue Date and the amount of interest payable at the first interest payment date. -22- Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.15, the Company may not issue Add On Securities if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. ARTICLE 3 REDEMPTION AND PURCHASES SECTION 3.1 PROVISIONAL AND OPTIONAL REDEMPTION; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE (a) The Company may redeem any portion of the Securities at any time prior to June 15, 2004 (a "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION"), upon giving notice as set forth in Section 3.3, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (such amount, the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE"), to but excluding the date of redemption (the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION DATE") if (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock has exceeded 150% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days within a period of any 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of mailing of the notice of Provisional Redemption (the "NOTICE DATE"), and (2) a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use for the 30 days following the Provisional Redemption Date unless registration is no longer required. (b) Except as set forth in clause (a) of this Section 3.1, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 3.1 prior to June 15, 2004. Thereafter, the Company shall have the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") upon giving notice as set forth in Section 3.3 at the Redemption Prices (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE") specified in paragraph 5 of the form of Security attached hereto as EXHIBIT A, together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"); PROVIDED that if the Optional Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders in whose name the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of such interest. If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section 3.1 and paragraph 5 of the Securities, it shall notify the Trustee, at the earlier of the time the Company notifies the Holders of such redemption or 45 days prior to the Redemption Date as fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Company and given to the Trustee, which record date shall not be less than ten days after the date of notice to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to determine whether the Securities are eligible for Provisional Redemption, and may conclusively rely on any such determination by the Company. Any redemption pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section 3.1 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 3.2 through 3.7 and Section 3.12 hereof. SECTION 3.2 SELECTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall, not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, select the Securities to be redeemed. The Trustee shall make the selection from the Securities outstanding and not previously called for redemption, by lot, or in its discretion, on a PRO RATA basis. Securities in denominations of $1,000 may only be redeemed in whole. The Trustee may select for -23- redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any multiple thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection. SECTION 3.3 NOTICE OF REDEMPTION At least 20 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder's address as it appears on the Primary Registrar's books. The notice shall identify the Securities (including CUSIP numbers) to be redeemed and shall state: (1) the Redemption Date; (2) the Redemption Price; (3) the then current Conversion Price; (4) the name and address of each Paying Agent and Conversion Agent; (5) that Securities called for redemption must be presented and surrendered to a Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price; (6) that Holders who wish to convert Securities must surrender such Securities for conversion no later than the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date and must satisfy the other requirements in paragraph 8 of the Securities; (7) that, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption shall cease accruing on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holder shall be to receive payment of the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest, if any upon presentation and surrender to a Paying Agent of the Securities; and (8) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, upon presentation and surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued. If any of the Securities to be redeemed is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to redemptions. At the Company's written request, which request shall (i) be irrevocable once given and (ii) set forth all relevant information required by clauses (1) through (8) of the preceding paragraph, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense. -24- SECTION 3.4 EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the notice, together with accrued interest, if any, except for Securities that are converted in accordance with the provisions of Article 4. Upon presentation and surrender to a Paying Agent, Securities called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest up to but not including the Redemption Date; PROVIDED if the Redemption Date is an interest payment date, interest will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record dates for payment of such interest. SECTION 3.5 DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE The Company, prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Redemption Date, shall deposit with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company acts as Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on that date which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or have been converted. The Paying Agent shall return to the Company any money not required for that purpose because of the conversion of Securities pursuant to Article 4 or, if such money is then held by the Company in trust and is not required for such purpose, it shall be discharged from the trust. SECTION 3.6 SECURITIES REDEEMED IN PART Upon presentation and surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered. SECTION 3.7 CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Company may arrange for the purchase and conversion of any Securities called for redemption by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to a Paying Agent (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) in trust for the Holders, on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, an amount that, together with any amounts deposited with such Paying Agent by the Company for the redemption of such Securities, is not less than the Redemption Price, together with interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date, of such Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 3, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities, including all accrued interest, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this Section 3.7 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to pay the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest to but excluding the relevant Redemption Date, on Securities called for redemption. If such an agreement with one or more investment banks or other purchasers is entered into, any Securities called for redemption and not surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof prior to the relevant Redemption Date may, at the option of the Company upon written notice to the Trustee, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article 4) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as of 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid. The Paying Agent shall hold and pay to the Holders whose Securities are selected for redemption any such amount paid to it for purchase in the same manner as it would money deposited with it by the Company for the redemption of Securities. Without the Paying Agent's prior written consent, no arrangement between the Company and such purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, -25- responsibilities or obligations of the Paying Agent as set forth in this Indenture, and the Company agrees to indemnify the Paying Agent from, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and conversion of any Securities between the Company and such purchasers, including the costs and expenses incurred by the Paying Agent in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture. SECTION 3.8 PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF THE HOLDER UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL (a) If at any time that Securities remain outstanding there shall occur a Change in Control, Securities shall be purchased by the Company at the option of the Holders thereof as of the date (the "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE DATE") that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date on which the Company provides Holders notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control (or if the Company has not therefore provided such, the 40th Business Day following the occurrence of a Change in Control) at a purchase price equal to the principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Change in Control Purchase Date (the "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE PRICE"), subject to satisfaction by or on behalf of any Holder of the requirements set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 3.8. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occurs after the date hereof: (1) any "person" or "group" (as such terms are defined below), other than one or more Permitted Holders, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, of shares of Voting Stock of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power of all outstanding classes of Voting Stock of the Company or such person or group has the power, directly or indirectly, to elect a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company; or (2) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, another Person or the Company sells, assigns, conveys, transfers, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any such event other than pursuant to a transaction in which the Persons that "beneficially owned" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, shares of Voting Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction "beneficially own" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, shares of Voting Stock of the Company representing at least a majority of the total voting power of all outstanding classes of Voting Stock of the surviving or transferee Person; or (3) there shall occur the liquidation or dissolution of the Company. For the purpose of the definition of "Change in Control", (i) "person" and "group" have the meanings given such terms under Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision to either of the foregoing, and the term "group" includes any group acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision thereto), (ii) a "beneficial owner" shall be determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of this Indenture, except that the number of shares of Voting Stock of the Company shall be deemed to include, in addition to all outstanding shares of Voting Stock of the Company and Unissued Shares deemed to be held by the "person" or "group" (as such terms are defined above) or other Person with respect to which the Change in Control determination is being made, all Unissued Shares deemed to be held by all other Persons, and (iii) the terms "beneficially owned" and "beneficially own" shall have meanings correlative to that of "beneficial owner." The term "Unissued Shares" means shares of Voting Stock not outstanding that are subject to options, -26- warrants, rights to purchase or conversion privileges exercisable within 60 days of the date of determination of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.8, a Change in Control will not be deemed to have occurred if either: (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock for any five Trading Days during the ten Trading Days immediately preceding the Change in Control is at least equal to 105% of the Conversion Price in effect on such Trading Day; or (2) in the case of a merger or consolidation, at least 90% of the consideration (excluding cash payments for fractional shares in the merger or consolidation constituting the Change in Control) consists of common stock traded on a United States national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market (or which will be so traded or quoted when issued or exchanged in connection with such Change In Control) and as a result of such transaction or transactions the Securities become convertible solely into such common stock. (b) within 10 Business Days after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company shall mail a written notice of the Change in Control to the Trustee (and the Paying Agent if the Trustee is not then acting as Paying Agent) and to each Holder (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law). The notice shall include the form of a Change in Control Purchase Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall state: (1) the date of such Change in Control and, briefly, the events causing such Change in Control; (2) the date by which the Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 3.8 must be given; (3) the Change in Control Purchase Date; (4) the Change in Control Purchase Price; (5) briefly, the conversion rights of the Securities; (6) the name and address of each Paying Agent and Conversion Agent; (7) the Conversion Price and any adjustments thereto; (8) that Securities as to which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given may be converted into Common Stock pursuant to Article 4 of this Indenture only to the extent that the Change in Control Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; (9) the procedures that the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 3.8; (10) the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control Purchase Notice, including a form of notice of withdrawal; and -27- (11) that the Holder must satisfy the requirements set forth in the Securities in order to convert the Securities. If any of the Securities is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to the repurchase of Global Securities. (c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in subsection (a) of this Section 3.8 upon delivery of a written notice (which shall be in substantially the form included in EXHIBIT A hereto and which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of the exercise of such rights (a "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE NOTICE") to any Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date. The delivery of such Security to any Paying Agent (together with all necessary endorsements) at the office of such Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Change in Control Purchase Price therefor. The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 3.8, a portion of a Security if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of the Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security pursuant to Sections 3.8 through 3.13 also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Security. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to a Paying Agent the Change in Control Purchase Notice contemplated by this subsection (c) shall have the right to withdraw such Change in Control Purchase Notice in whole or in a portion thereof that is a principal amount of $1,000 or in an integral multiple thereof at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.9. A Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Change in Control Purchase Notice or written withdrawal thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, any Change in Control Purchase Notice may be delivered or withdrawn and such Securities may be surrendered or delivered for purchase in accordance with the Applicable Procedures as in effect from time to time. SECTION 3.9 EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE NOTICE Upon receipt by any Paying Agent of the Change in Control Purchase Notice specified in Section 3.8(c), the Holder of the Security in respect of which such Change in Control Purchase Notice was given shall (unless such Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn as specified below) thereafter be entitled to receive the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to such Security. Such Change in Control Purchase Price shall be paid to such Holder promptly following the later of (a) the Change in Control Purchase Date with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section 3.8(c) have been satisfied) and (b) the time of delivery of such Security to a Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 3.8(c). Securities in respect of which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted into shares of Common Stock on or after the date of the delivery of such Change in Control Purchase Notice unless such Change in Control Purchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn. -28- A Change in Control Purchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice (which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to a Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date, specifying the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof (which must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted. SECTION 3.10 DEPOSIT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE PRICE On or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Change in Control Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the aggregate Change in Control Purchase Price of all the Securities or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of such Change in Control Purchase Date. The manner in which the deposit required by this Section 3.10 is made by the Company shall be at the option of the Company, provided that such deposit shall be made in a manner such that the Trustee or a Paying Agent shall have immediately available funds on the Change in Control Purchase Date. If a Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms hereof, money sufficient to pay the Change in Control Purchase Price of any Security for which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture then, on the Change in Control Purchase Date, such Security will cease to be outstanding and the rights of the Holder in respect thereof shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Change in Control Purchase Price as aforesaid). The Company shall publicly announce the principal amount of Securities purchased as a result of such Change in Control on or as soon as practicable after the Change in Control Purchase Date. SECTION 3.11 SECURITIES PURCHASED IN PART Any Security that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of a Paying Agent and promptly after the Change in Control Purchase Date the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Security so surrendered that is not purchased. SECTION 3.12 COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS UPON PURCHASE OF SECURITIES In connection with any offer to purchase or purchase of Securities under Section 3.8, the Company shall (a) comply with Rule 13e-4 and Rule 14e-1 (or any successor to either such Rule), if applicable, under the Exchange Act, (b) file the related Schedule TO (or any successor or similar schedule, form or report) if required under the Exchange Act, and (c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with such offer to purchase or purchase of Securities, all so as to permit the rights of the Holders and obligations of the Company under Sections 3.8 through 3.11 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified therein. -29- SECTION 3.13 REPAYMENT TO THE COMPANY To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.10 exceeds the aggregate Change in Control Purchase Price together with interest, if any, thereon of the Securities or portions thereof that the Company is obligated to purchase, then promptly after the Change in Control Purchase Date the Trustee or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall return any such excess cash (including any interest thereon) to the Company. ARTICLE 4 CONVERSION SECTION 4.1 CONVERSION PRIVILEGE Subject to the further provisions of this Section 4.1, a Holder of a Security may, at the Holder's option, convert the principal amount of such Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) into Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on the Final Maturity Date, at the Conversion Price then in effect; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if such Security is called for redemption or submitted or presented for purchase pursuant to Article 3, such conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for redemption or for purchase (unless the Company shall Default in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price payment when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such Default is cured and such Security is redeemed or purchased, as the case may be). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security shall be determined by dividing the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof surrendered for conversion by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. The initial Conversion Price is set forth in paragraph 8 of the Securities and is subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 4. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to conversion of a portion of a Security. A Security in respect of which a Holder has delivered a Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 3.8(c) exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if such Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn by a written notice of withdrawal delivered to a Paying Agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date in accordance with Section 3.9. A Holder of Securities is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until such Holder has converted its Securities to Common Stock, and only to the extent such Securities are deemed to have been converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Article 4. SECTION 4.2 CONVERSION PROCEDURE To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice on the back of the Security and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. The date on which the Holder satisfies all of those requirements is the "CONVERSION DATE." As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder through a Conversion Agent a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common -30- Stock issuable upon the conversion and cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 4.3. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, conversion notices may be delivered and such Securities may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the Applicable Procedures as in effect from time to time. The person in whose name the Common Stock certificate is registered shall be deemed to be a stockholder of record on the Conversion Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no surrender of a Security on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock upon such conversion as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to receive such shares of Common Stock as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date as if the stock transfer books of the Company had not been closed. Upon conversion of a Security, such person shall no longer be a Holder of such Security. No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends or distributions on shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Security. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date (excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either case, on the date during the period beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.2, no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued interest on a converted Security. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such Holder. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of a Holder in whose name any Security is registered at the close of business on a record date to receive the interest payable on such Security on the related interest payment date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities. If a Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate principal amount of Securities converted. Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Security equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered. SECTION 4.3 FRACTIONAL SHARES The Company will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Securities. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay an amount in cash based upon the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. -31- SECTION 4.4 TAXES ON CONVERSION If a Holder converts a Security, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock upon such conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificate representing the Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder's name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation. SECTION 4.5 COMPANY TO PROVIDE STOCK The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Securities hereunder, and from time to time as may be necessary, reserve, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of all outstanding Securities into shares of Common Stock. All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Securities shall be newly issued shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim. The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Securities, if any, and will list or cause to have quoted such shares of Common Stock on each national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market or other over-the-counter market or such other market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if rules of such automated quotation system or exchange permit the Company to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first conversion of the Notes into Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with the requirements of such automated quotation system or exchange at such time. SECTION 4.6 ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE The conversion price as stated in paragraph 8 of the Securities (the "CONVERSION PRICE") shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (iii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iv) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock which it would have owned had such Security been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of subdivision or combination. (b) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period commencing no earlier than the record date described below and expiring not more than 60 days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) at a price per share (or having a conversion price per share) less than the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders -32- entitled to receive such rights or warrants (provided, however, if such rights or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events, then the Conversion Price shall not be adjusted unless and until such triggering events occur), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered (or the aggregate conversion price of the convertible securities so offered, which shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such convertible securities by the conversion price per share of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of such convertible securities) would purchase at the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on such record date, and of which (y) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after such record date. If at the end of the period during which such rights or warrants are exercisable not all rights or warrants shall have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been based upon the number of additional shares of Common Stock actually issued (or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of convertible securities actually issued). (c) In case the Company shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 4.6), then in each such case, for so long as such rights or warrants shall not have expired or been redeemed by the Company, the Holder of any Security surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, the following: (i) If conversion occurs on or prior to the date for distribution of certificates evidencing such rights or warrants (the "DISTRIBUTION DATE"), the Holder shall be entitled to the same number of rights or warrants that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion is entitled; and (ii) if conversion occurs after the Distribution Date, the Holder shall be entitled to the same number of rights or warrants that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder would have owned had such Security been converted immediately prior to the Distribution Date, in accordance with the terms and provisions applicable to such rights or warrants. (d) In case the Company shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets (including securities of any person other than the Company but excluding (1) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash or (2) dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 4.6), or shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities which rights or warrants have expired or have been redeemed prior to conversion of any Securities (excluding those rights and warrants referred to in subsections (b) or (c) of this Section 4.6), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the current Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the record date mentioned below less the fair market value on such record date (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the portion of the capital stock, evidences of indebtedness or -33- other non-cash assets so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date), and of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on such record date; provided, however, that in the case of rights or warrants which have expired or have been redeemed, such determination shall be made as of the time of expiration or redemption, rather than the record date, and shall be based upon the value immediately prior to such expiration or upon the redemption price, as the case may be. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. (e) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, at any time distribute (a "TRIGGERING DISTRIBUTION") to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock cash in an aggregate amount that, together with the aggregate amount of (A) any cash and the fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any other consideration payable in respect of any tender offer by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company for Common Stock consummated within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of the Triggering Distribution and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made and (B) all other all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of the Triggering Distribution and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made, exceeds an amount equal to 12.5% of the product of the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the Business Day (the "DETERMINATION DATE") immediately preceding the day on which such Triggering Distribution is declared by the Company multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Determination Date (excluding shares held in the treasury of the Company), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Determination Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Determination Date less the sum of the aggregate amount of cash and the aggregate fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any such other consideration so distributed, paid or payable within such 12 months (including, without limitation, the Triggering Distribution) applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Determination Date) and the denominator shall be such Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Determination Date, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date on which the Triggering Distribution is paid. (f) (1) In case any tender offer made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for Common Stock shall expire and such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall involve the payment of aggregate consideration in an amount (determined as the sum of the aggregate amount of cash consideration and the aggregate fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee thereof) of any other consideration) that, together with the aggregate amount of (A) any cash and the fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any other consideration payable in respect of any other tender offers by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for Common Stock consummated within the 12 months preceding the date of the Expiration Date (as defined below) and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made and (B) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the Expiration Date and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made, exceeds an amount equal to 12.5% of the product of the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock as of the last date (the "EXPIRATION DATE") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) (the last -34- time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the "EXPIRATION TIME") multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including tendered shares but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time, then, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the Expiration Date, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to close of business on the Expiration Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including tendered shares but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date and the denominator shall be the sum of (x) the aggregate consideration (determined as aforesaid) payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "PURCHASED SHARES") and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares and excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Date. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such purchases or any or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would have been in effect based upon the number of shares actually purchased. If the application of this Section 4.6(f) to any tender offer would result in an increase in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer under this Section 4.6(f). (2) For purposes of Section 4.6(e) and 4.6(f), the term "tender offer" shall mean and include both tender offers and exchange offers (within the meaning of U.S. Federal securities laws), all references to "purchases" of shares in tender offers (and all similar references) shall mean and include both the purchase of shares in tender offers and the acquisition of shares pursuant to exchange offers, and all references to "tendered shares" (and all similar references) shall mean and include shares tendered in both tender offers and exchange offers. (g) For the purpose of any computation under subsections (b), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 4.6, the current market price per share of Common Stock (the "CURRENT MARKET PRICE PER SHARE") on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Prices for the 30 consecutive Trading Days commencing 45 Trading Days before (i) the Determination Date or the Expiration Date, as the case may be, with respect to distributions or tender offers under subsection (f) of this Section 4.6 or (ii) the record date with respect to distributions, issuances or other events requiring such computation under subsection (b), (d) or (e) of this Section 4.6. The Closing Price for each day (the "CLOSING PRICE") shall be the last reported sales price or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices in either case on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or the Nasdaq National Market (the "NNM"), as applicable, or, if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on the NYSE or the NNM, the principal national securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is quoted or listed or admitted to trading or, if not quoted or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quotation system, the closing sales price or, in case no reported sale takes place, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, as furnished by any two members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. selected from time to time by the Company for that purpose. If no such prices are available, the Current Market Price Per Share shall be the fair value of a share of Common Stock as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee). (h) In any case in which this Section 4.6 shall require that an adjustment be made following a record date or a Determination Date or Expiration Date, as the case may be, established for purposes -35- of this Section 4.6, the Company may elect to defer (but only until five Business Days following the filing by the Company with the Trustee of the certificate described in Section 4.9) issuing to the Holder of any Security converted after such record date or Determination Date or Expiration Date the shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company issuable upon such conversion over and above the shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company issuable upon such conversion only on the basis of the Conversion Price prior to adjustment; and, in lieu of the shares the issuance of which is so deferred, the Company shall issue or cause its transfer agent to issue due bills or other appropriate evidence prepared by the Company of the right to receive such shares. If any distribution in respect of which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required to be made as of the record date or Determination Date or Expiration Date therefor is not thereafter made or paid by the Company for any reason, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or such effective date or Determination Date or Expiration Date had not occurred. SECTION 4.7 NO ADJUSTMENT No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price as last adjusted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.7 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment need be made for issuances of Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest or for a change in the par value or a change to no par value of the Common Stock. To the extent that the Securities become convertible into the right to receive cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash. Interest will not accrue on the cash. SECTION 4.8 ADJUSTMENT FOR TAX PURPOSES The Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by Section 4.6, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividends, subdivisions of shares, distributions of rights to purchase stock or securities or distributions of securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall not be taxable. SECTION 4.9 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT Whenever the Conversion Price or conversion privilege is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to Securityholders a notice of the adjustment and file with the Trustee an Officers' Certificate briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. Unless and until the Trustee shall receive an Officers' Certificate setting forth an adjustment of the Conversion Price, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that the Conversion Price has not been adjusted and that the last Conversion Price of which it has knowledge remains in effect. -36- SECTION 4.10 NOTICE OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS In the event that: (1) the Company takes any action which would require an adjustment in the Conversion Price; (2) the Company consolidates or merges with, or transfers all or substantially all of its property and assets to, another corporation and shareholders of the Company must approve the transaction; or (3) there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Company shall mail to Holders and file with the Trustee a notice stating the proposed record or effective date, as the case may be. The Company shall mail the notice at least ten days before such date. Failure to mail such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any transaction referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.10. SECTION 4.11 EFFECT OF RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE ON CONVERSION PRIVILEGE If any of the following shall occur, namely: (a) any reclassification or change of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, or any other change for which an adjustment is provided in Section 4.6); (b) any consolidation or merger or combination to which the Company is a party other than a merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding shares of Common Stock; or (c) any sale or conveyance as an entirety or substantially as an entirety of the property and assets of the Company, directly or indirectly, to any person, then the Company, or such successor, purchasing or transferee corporation, as the case may be, shall, as a condition precedent to such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that the Holder of each Security then outstanding shall have the right to convert such Security into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of such Security immediately prior to such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments of the Conversion Price which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of the Conversion Price provided for in this Article 4. If, in the case of any such consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance, the stock or other securities and property (including cash) receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Stock include shares of stock or other securities and property of a person other than the successor, purchasing or transferee corporation, as the case may be, in such consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Securities as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing. The provisions of this Section 4.11 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, combinations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances. In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (x) an Officers' Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders of the -37- Securities upon the conversion of their Securities after any such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with and (y) an Opinion of Counsel that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders. SECTION 4.12 TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER The Trustee shall have no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Article 4 should be made, how it should be made or what such adjustment should be, but may accept as conclusive evidence of that fact or the correctness of any such adjustment, and shall be protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate including the Officers' Certificate with respect thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.9. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of Securities, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with any provisions of this Article 4. The Trustee shall not be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to Section 4.11, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness thereof, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the Officers' Certificate with respect thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.11. SECTION 4.13 VOLUNTARY REDUCTION The Company from time to time may voluntarily reduce the Conversion Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days and if the reduction is irrevocable during the period if the Board of Directors approves such reduction and the Company provides 15 days prior notice of any voluntary reduction in the Conversion Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event may the Company reduce the Conversion Price to be less than the par value of a share of Common Stock. ARTICLE 5 SUBORDINATION SECTION 5.1 AGREEMENT OF SUBORDINATION The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article 5; and each Person holding any Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture) issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred. No provision of this Article 5 shall prevent the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder. -38- SECTION 5.2 PAYMENTS TO HOLDERS No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities to be called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 5.5, if: (i) a default in the payment of principal, premium, interest, rent or other obligations due on any Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Designated Senior Indebtedness for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument or lease evidencing such Designated Senior Indebtedness), unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on a Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a "PAYMENT BLOCKAGE NOTICE") from a Representative or holder of Designated Senior Indebtedness. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, if the Trustee receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant to clause (ii) above, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until at least 365 days shall have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee (unless such default was waived, cured or otherwise ceased to exist and thereafter subsequently reoccurred) shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Securities upon the earlier of: (a) the date upon which the default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or (b) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) above, 179 days pass after a Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless this Article 5 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at the time of such payment or distribution. Upon any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary) or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash, or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (except payments made pursuant to Article 10 from monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant thereto prior to commencement of proceedings for such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization); and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled, except for the provision of this Article 5, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders of the Securities or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, -39- directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (PRO RATA to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash, or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of the Securities or to the Trustee. For purposes of this Article 5, the words, "cash, property or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article 5 with respect to the Securities to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding; PROVIDED that (i) the Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (other than leases which are not assumed by the Company or the new corporation, as the case may be) are not, without the consent of such Holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article 7 shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 5.2 if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article 7. In the event of the acceleration of the Securities because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Trustee or any Holder of Securities in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 5.5, until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 9.7. This Section 5.2 shall be subject to the further provisions of Section 5.5. -40- SECTION 5.3 SUBROGATION OF SECURITIES Subject to the payment in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5 (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities shall be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article 5, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5, to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Article 5, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of the Securities. It is understood that the provisions of this Article 5 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article 5 or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon Default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article 5 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 5, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 5. SECTION 5.4 AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT SUBORDINATION Each Holder of a Security by the Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on the Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 5 and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 5.3 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such -41- claim, the holders of any Senior Indebtedness or their representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Securities. SECTION 5.5 NOTICE TO TRUSTEE The Company shall give prompt written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate to a Trust Officer of the Trustee and to any Paying Agent of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee or any Paying Agent in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 5 or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5, unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office from the Company (in the form of an Officers' Certificate) or a Representative or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; PROVIDED that if on a date not fewer than one Business Day prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Security) the Trustee shall not have received, with respect to such monies, the notice provided for in this Section 5.5, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it on or after such prior date. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 5 to the contrary, nothing shall prevent any payment by the Trustee to the Holders of monies deposited with it pursuant to Article 10, and any such payment shall not be subject to the provisions of Article 5. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Representative or a person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness to establish that such notice has been given by a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 5, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 5, and if such evidence is not furnished the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. SECTION 5.6 TRUSTEE'S RELATION TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 5 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in Section 9.11 or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article 5, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders of Securities, the Company or any other person money or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 5 or otherwise. -42- SECTION 5.7 NO IMPAIRMENT OF SUBORDINATION No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with. SECTION 5.8 CERTAIN CONVERSIONS DEEMED PAYMENT For the purposes of this Article 5 only, (1) the issuance and delivery of junior securities upon conversion of Securities in accordance with Article 4 shall not be deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities, and (2) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash (except in satisfaction of fractional shares pursuant to Section 4.3), property or securities (other than junior securities) upon conversion of a Security shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of such Security. For the purposes of this Section 5.8, the term "junior securities" means (a) shares of any stock of any class of the Company, or (b) securities of the Company which are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness which may be outstanding at the time of issuance or delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article. Nothing contained in this Article 5 or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of the Holder of any Security to convert such Security in accordance with Article 4. SECTION 5.9 ARTICLE APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as used in this Article shall (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the first paragraph of Section 5.5 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. SECTION 5.10 SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS ENTITLED TO RELY The holders of Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Designated Senior Indebtedness) shall have the right to rely upon this Article 5, and no amendment or modification of the provisions contained herein shall diminish the rights of any such holder except in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 11.2. ARTICLE 6 COVENANTS SECTION 6.1 PAYMENT OF SECURITIES The Company shall promptly make all payments in respect of the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities and this Indenture. An installment of principal or interest or Additional Interest, if any, shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Paying Agent (other than the Company) holds by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that date money, deposited by the Company or an Affiliate thereof, -43- sufficient to pay the installment. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay interest on overdue principal (including premium, if any) and overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities per annum. The conversion of any Securities pursuant to Article 4 hereof, together with the making of any cash payments required to be made in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture, shall satisfy the Company's obligations under this Section 6.1 with respect to such Securities. Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on the Securities shall be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address appears in the Register; PROVIDED FURTHER that a Holder with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $2,000,000 will be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the election of such Holder. SECTION 6.2 SEC REPORTS The Company shall file all reports and other information and documents which it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and within 15 days after it files them with the SEC, the Company shall file copies of all such reports, information and other documents with the Trustee. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates). SECTION 6.3 COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001), an Officers' Certificate as to the signers' knowledge of the Company's compliance with all conditions and covenants on its part contained in this Indenture and stating whether or not the signers know of any Default or Event of Default. If such signers know of such a Default or Event of Default, the Officers' Certificate shall describe the Default or Event of Default and the efforts to remedy the same. For the purposes of this Section 6.3, compliance shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. SECTION 6.4 FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. SECTION 6.5 MAINTENANCE OF CORPORATE EXISTENCE Subject to Article 7, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. -44- SECTION 6.6 RULE 144A INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS Within the period prior to the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), the Company covenants and agrees that it shall, during any period in which it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Exchange Act, make available to any Holder or beneficial holder of Securities or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof which continue to be Restricted Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of Securities or such Common Stock designated by such Holder or beneficial holder, the information required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act upon the request of any Holder or beneficial holder of the Securities or such Common Stock and it will take such further action as any Holder or beneficial holder of such Securities or such Common Stock may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder or beneficial holder to sell its Securities or Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemption provided by Rule 144A, as such Rule may be amended from time to time. Upon the written request of any Holder or any beneficial holder of the Securities or such Common Stock, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. SECTION 6.7 STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS 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 which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which 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. SECTION 6.8 PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL INTEREST If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. ARTICLE 7 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE SECTION 7.1 COMPANY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ONLY ON CERTAIN TERMS The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person (in a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving corporation) or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless: (1) in case the Company shall consolidate with or merge into another Person (in a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving corporation) or convey, transfer or lease its -45- properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety shall be a corporation or limited liability company organized and validly existing under (i) the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia or (ii) under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States and has common stock or American Depository Shares representing the common stock traded on a national securities exchange in the United States or through Nasdaq National Market (provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such transaction and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and at the same times as would have been the case if such transaction had not occurred) and (iii) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and any premium and interest on all the Securities and the performance or observance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed and the conversion rights shall be provided for in accordance with Article 4, by supplemental indenture satisfactory in form to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee, by the Person (if other than the Company) formed by such consolidation or into which the Company shall have been merged or by the Person which shall have acquired the Company's assets; (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing; and (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. SECTION 7.2 SUCCESSOR SUBSTITUTED Upon any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety in accordance with Section 7.1, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. SECTION 7.3 WITHHOLDING TAXES All payments made under or with respect to the Securities must be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge of whatever nature (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made or in which the payor is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes or any province or territory thereof or by any taxing authority therein (hereinafter "TAXES"), unless the Company is required to withhold or deduct such Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Company is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Securities, the Company will pay such additional amounts ("ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder after such withholding or deduction (including any withholding or -46- deduction with respect to Additional Amounts) will not be less than the amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to payments made to a Holder (an "EXCLUDED HOLDER") to the extent such Holder is subject to such Taxes by reason of its being connected with a foreign jurisdiction thereof otherwise than by the mere holding of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder or the enforcement of its rights and obligations under the Securities. The Company will make such withholding or deduction and remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority as and when required in accordance with applicable law. The Company will furnish to the Holder, within 30 days after the payment of any Taxes, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Company. The Company will upon written request of each Holder (other than an Excluded Holder), reimburse each such Holder for the amount of (i) any Taxes (including penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto) imposed or levied and paid by such Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Securities and (ii) any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Holder with respect to any reimbursement under the foregoing clause (i), but excluding any such Taxes on such Holder's net income, so that the net amount received by such Holder after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount the Holder would have received if Taxes (other than such Taxes on such Holder's net income) on such reimbursement had not been imposed. At least 30 days prior to each date on which payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case promptly thereafter), if the Company is obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information as necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders of the Securities on the payment date. The Company will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Securities, the Indenture or any other document or instrument in relation thereof, or the receipt of any payments with respect to the Securities, excluding such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction other than (i) any jurisdiction in which the Company is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes, (ii) any jurisdiction in which any successor to the Company is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes or (iii) any jurisdiction in which a Paying Agent is located. In addition, the Company will agree to indemnify the Holders (on an after-tax basis) for any such Taxes paid by such Holders. The obligations described under this heading shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture. ARTICLE 8 DEFAULT AND REMEDIES SECTION 8.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT An "Event of Default" shall occur if: (1) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest or Additional Interest, if any, payable to all holders of Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) on any Security when the same becomes due and payable and the default continues for a period of 30 days, whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by the provisions of Article 5 hereof; -47- (2) the Company defaults in the payment of any principal of (including, without limitation, any premium, if any, on) any Security when the same becomes due and payable (whether at maturity, upon redemption, on a Change in Control Purchase Date or otherwise), whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by the provisions of Article 5 hereof; (3) the Company fails to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the Securities or this Indenture and the default continues for the period and after the notice specified below; (4) the Company fails to give notice to the Trustee and each Holder of a Change in Control in accordance with Section 3.8(b); (5) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding; (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property; or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding; (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company; or (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company; and in each case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days. The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11 of the United States Code (or any successor thereto) or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. A Default under clause (3) above is not an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding notify the Company and the Trustee, of the Default, and the Company does not cure the Default within 60 days after receipt of such notice. The notice given pursuant to this Section 8.1 must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a "Notice of Default." When any Default under this Section 8.1 is cured, it ceases. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless written notice thereof shall have been given to a Trust Officer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee by the Company, a Paying Agent, any Holder or any agent of any Holder. -48- SECTION 8.2 ACCELERATION If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, declare all unpaid principal on the Securities then outstanding (if not then due and payable) to be due and payable upon any such declaration, and the same shall become and be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1 occurs, all unpaid principal of the Securities then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (a) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Securities which has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; (b) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest (calculated at the rate per annum borne by the Securities) on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid; and (c) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 8.3 OTHER REMEDIES If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. SECTION 8.4 WAIVER OF DEFAULTS AND EVENTS OF DEFAULT Subject to Sections 8.7 and 11.2, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequence, except a Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, including the Redemption Price upon redemption pursuant to Section 3.1, on any Security, (ii) in respect of a failure by the Company to convert any Securities into Common Stock, or (iii) any Default or Event of Default in respect of any provision of this Indenture or the Securities which, under Section 11.2, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Security affected. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases. SECTION 8.5 CONTROL BY MAJORITY The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder or the Trustee, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to it; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. -49- SECTION 8.6 LIMITATIONS ON SUITS No Holder has any right to institute any proceeding under this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or a trustee, or for any other remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities (except actions for payment of overdue principal or interest or for the conversion of the Securities pursuant to Article 4) unless: (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee; (3) such Holder or Holders offer reasonable indemnity to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over such other Securityholder. SECTION 8.7 RIGHTS OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT AND TO CONVERT Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, including the Redemption Price upon redemption pursuant to Section 3.1, on the Security, on or after the respective due dates therefor, to convert such Security in accordance with Article 4 and to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or the right to convert, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder. SECTION 8.8 COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE If an Event of Default in the payment of principal or interest specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 8.1 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or another obligor on the Securities for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate per annum borne by the Securities and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. SECTION 8.9 TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be 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 the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities), its creditors or its property -50- and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same and to take any other action with respect to such claims, including participation as a member of any official committee of creditors appointed in the matters as it deems necessary or advisable, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.7, and to the extent that such payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances 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, money, securities and other property which the Holders 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, on behalf of any Holder, to authorize, accept or adopt any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities 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.

This Section 8.11 does not apply to a suit made by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 8.7, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. -51- ARTICLE 9 TRUSTEE SECTION 9.1 DUTIES OF TRUSTEE (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. (b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: (1) the Trustee need perform only those duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no others; and (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture. The Trustee, however, shall examine any certificates and opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be delivered to the Trustee to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture. (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: (1) this paragraph does not limit the effect of subsection (b) of this Section 9.1; (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 8.5. (d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers unless the Trustee shall have received adequate indemnity in its opinion against potential costs and liabilities incurred by it relating thereto. (e) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 9.1.

RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE Subject to Section 9.1: (a) The Trustee may rely conclusively on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document. (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers' Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to Section 12.4(b). The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such Certificate or Opinion. (c) The Trustee may act through its agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers; provided, however, that the Trustee's conduct does not constitute willful misconduct or negligence. (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any such action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. (f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. (g) The Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the sole cost of the Company and shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. (h) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office, and such notice references the Securities and this Indenture. (i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and to each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. -53- SECTION 9.3 INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS OF TRUSTEE The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 9.10 and 9.11. SECTION 9.4 TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities other than its certificate of authentication. SECTION 9.5 NOTICE OF DEFAULT OR EVENTS OF DEFAULT If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. However, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of Securityholders, except in the case of a Default or an Event of Default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Security. SECTION 9.6 REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS If such report is required by TIA Section 313, within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with May 15, 2002, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b)(2) and (c). A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or quoted. The Company shall notify the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange or listed or admitted to trading on any quotation system and any changes in the stock exchanges or quotation systems on which the Securities are listed or admitted to trading and of any delisting thereof. SECTION 9.7 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation (as agreed to from time to time by the Company and the Trustee in writing) for its services. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable, actual disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by it. Such expenses may include the reasonable, actual compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel. All rights, protections and benefits of the Trustee shall extend to the Trustee acting as Conversion Agent, Paying Agent, Registrar, Primary Registrar or other Agent with respect hereto. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (which for purposes of this Section 9.7 shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents) for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture or any action or failure to act as authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon the Trustee hereunder including the reasonable costs and expenses of the Trustee and its counsel in defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company -54- promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity. The Company need not pay for any settlement without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company need not reimburse the Trustee for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability incurred by it resulting from its own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 9.7, the Trustee shall have a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except such money or property held in trust to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities. The obligations of the Company under this Section 9.7 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1 occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. SECTION 9.8 REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may, with the Company's written consent, appoint a successor Trustee. The Company may remove the Trustee if: (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10; (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. The resignation or removal of a Trustee shall not be effective until a successor Trustee shall have delivered the written acceptance of its appointment as described below. If a successor Trustee does not take office within 45 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee at the expense of the Company. If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee and be released from its obligations (exclusive of any liabilities that the retiring Trustee may have incurred while acting as Trustee) hereunder, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder. -55- A retiring Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Trustee after its succession. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 9.8, the Company's obligations under Section 9.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. SECTION 9.9 SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets (including the administration of this Indenture) to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation, without any further act, shall be the successor Trustee, provided such transferee corporation shall qualify and be eligible under Section 9.10. Such successor Trustee shall promptly mail notice of its succession to the Company and each Holder. SECTION 9.10 ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION The Trustee shall always satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (1), (2) and (5) of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee (or its parent holding company) shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to satisfy any such requirements, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Article 9. The Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of TIA Section 310(b). Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of TIA Section 310(b). SECTION 9.11 PREFERENTIAL COLLECTION OF CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. ARTICLE 10 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE SECTION 10.1 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of conversion, registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for and except as further provided below), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (1) either (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.7 and (y) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable, (y) will become due and payable at the Final Maturity Date -56- within ninety days, or (z) have been called for redemption within ninety days under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or a Paying Agent (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) as trust funds in trust for the purpose cash in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and interest or Redemption Price, as the case may be, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Final Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be; (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' 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. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 9.7 shall survive and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (y) or (z) of clause (1)(ii) of this Section, the provisions of Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.12, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13 and 12.5, Article 4, the last paragraph of Section 6.2 and this Article 10, shall survive until the Securities have been paid in full. SECTION 10.2 APPLICATION OF TRUST MONEY Subject to the provisions of Section 10.3, the Trustee or a Paying Agent shall hold in trust, for the benefit of the Holders, all money deposited with it pursuant to Section 10.1 and shall apply the deposited money in accordance with this Indenture and the Securities to the payment of the principal of and interest on the Securities. Money so held in trust shall not be subject to the subordination provisions of Article 5. SECTION 10.3 REPAYMENT TO COMPANY The Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon request any excess money (i) deposited with them pursuant to Section 10.1 and (ii) held by them at any time. The Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after a right to such money has matured; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such payment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be mailed to each Holder entitled to such money notice that (x) such money remains unclaimed and (y) after a date specified therein, which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. SECTION 10.4 REINSTATEMENT If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 10.2 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under -57- this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.1 until such time as the Trustee or such Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 10.2; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Company has made any payment of the principal of or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive any such payment from the money held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent. ARTICLE 11 AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS SECTION 11.1 WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities without notice to or consent of any Securityholder: (a) to comply with Sections 4.11 and 7.1; (b) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities (provided that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code); (c) to comply with the provisions of the TIA; (d) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying, or maintaining qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; (e) to appoint a successor Trustee; (f) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (g) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder; or (h) to provide for the issuance of Add On Securities under the conditions specified in Section 2.15. SECTION 11.2 WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities without notice to any Securityholder. However, notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 11.4, without the written consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 8.4, may not: (a) change the stated maturity of the principal of, or interest on, any Security; -58- (b) reduce the principal amount of, or any premium or interest on, any Security; (c) reduce the amount of principal payable upon acceleration of the maturity of any Security; (d) change the place or currency of payment of principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Security; (e) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on, or with respect to, any Security; (f) modify the subordination provisions of Article 5 in a manner materially adverse to the Holders of Securities; (g) adversely affect the right of Holders to convert Securities other than as provided in or under Article 4 of this Indenture; (h) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities whose Holders must consent to a modification or amendment of this Indenture; and (i) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 8.4, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that specified additional provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 11.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 11.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver. An amendment or supplement under this Section 11.2 or under Section 11.1 may not make any change that adversely affects the rights under Article 5 of any holder of an issue of Senior Indebtedness unless the holders of that issue, pursuant to its terms, consent to the change. SECTION 11.3 COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT Every amendment to or supplement of this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as in effect at the date of such amendment or supplement. SECTION 11.4 REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. -59- After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through (i) of Section 11.2. In that case the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security. SECTION 11.5 NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. SECTION 11.6 TRUSTEE TO SIGN AMENDMENTS, ETC. The Trustee shall sign any amendment or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 11 if the amendment or supplemental indenture does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, but need not sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such amendment or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Section 9.1, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors approves it, which approval shall be confirmed by an Officers' Certificate of the Company to such effect.

The Company shall pay interest semiannually on June __ and December __ of each year, commencing December __, 2001. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June __, 2001; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there is not an existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Any reference herein to interest accrued or payable as of any date shall include any Additional Interest accrued or payable on such date as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement. 2.

Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those required by or made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. This A-6 Security is subject to all such terms, and the Holder of this Security is referred to the Indenture and said Act for a statement of them. The Securities are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.15 of the Indenture, the Company may issue additional Securities ("ADD ON SECURITIES"). The Indenture does not limit other debt of the Company, secured or unsecured, including Senior Indebtedness. 5. PROVISIONAL AND OPTIONAL REDEMPTION (a) The Company may redeem any portion of the Securities at any time prior to June __, 2004 (a "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION"), upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (such amount, the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE"), to but excluding the date of redemption (the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION DATE") if (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock has exceeded 150% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days within a period of any 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day prior to the date of mailing of the notice of Provisional Redemption (the "NOTICE DATE"), and (2) a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use for the 30 days following the Provisional Redemption Date unless registration is no longer required. (b) Except as set forth in clause (a) of this Section 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 5 prior to June __, 2004. Thereafter, the Company shall have the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6. The Optional Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) are as follows for Securities redeemed during the periods set forth below: PERIOD REDEMPTION PRICE - ------ ---------------- Beginning on ____ __, 2004 and ending on ____ __, 2005...... 104.00% Beginning on ____ __, 2005 and ending on ____ __, 2006...... 103.33% Beginning on ____ __, 2006 and ending on ____ __, 2007...... 102.67% Beginning on ____ __, 2007 and ending on ____ __, 2008...... 102.00% Beginning on ____ __, 2008 and ending on ____ __, 2009...... 101.33% Beginning on ____ __, 2009 and ending on ____ __, 2010...... 100.67% Beginning on ____ __, 2010 and thereafter .................. 100.00% in each case together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"); PROVIDED that if the Optional Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of such interest. 6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 20 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. On and after the Redemption Date, subject to the deposit with the Paying Agent of funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Securities or portions of them called for redemption. A-7 7. PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF HOLDER UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or any part specified by the Holder (so long as the principal amount of such part is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Securities held by such Holder on the date that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date on which the Company provides Holders notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control (or, if the Company has not provided such, 40 Business Days following the occurrence of a Change of Control), at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof together with accrued interest up to, but excluding, the Change in Control Purchase Date. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Change in Control Purchase Notice (in whole or in a portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 8. CONVERSION A Holder of a Security may convert the principal amount of such Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on June __, 2011; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Security is called for redemption or subject to purchase upon a Change in Control, the conversion right will terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for redemption or purchase (unless the Company shall default in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such default is cured and such Security is redeemed or purchased). The initial Conversion Price is $9.96 per share, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security is determined by dividing the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based upon the Closing Price (as defined in the Indenture) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice set forth below and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date (excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either case, on a date during the period beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued interest on a converted Security. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such Holder. A Holder may convert a portion of a Security equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. A Security in respect of which a Holder had delivered a Change in Control Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if the Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. A-8 9. CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, may be deemed to be purchased from the Holders of such Securities at an amount not less than the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date, by one or more investment bankers or other purchasers who may agree with the Company to purchase such Securities from the Holders, to convert them into Common Stock of the Company and to make payment for such Securities to the Paying Agent in trust for such Holders. 10. SUBORDINATION The indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company. Any Holder by accepting this Security agrees to and shall be bound by such subordination provisions and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect. In addition to all other rights of Senior Indebtedness described in the Indenture, the Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and entitled to the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any terms of any instrument relating to the Senior Indebtedness or any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness. 11. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto by law or permitted by the Indenture. 12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS The Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 13. UNCLAIMED MONEY If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment. 14. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequence or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Securities may be waived in a particular instance with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without the consent of or notice to any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder. A-9 15. SUCCESSOR CORPORATION When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the predecessor corporation will (except in certain circumstances specified in the Indenture) be released from those obligations. 16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES Under the Indenture, an Event of Default includes: (i) default for 30 days in payment of any interest on any Securities; (ii) default in payment of any principal (including, without limitation, any premium, if any) on the Securities when due; (iii) failure by the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the Indenture or the Securities; (iv) failure by the Company to give notice to the Trustee and Holders of a Change in Control in accordance with the Indenture; and (v) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. If an Event of Default (other than as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare all unpaid principal to the date of acceleration on the Securities then outstanding to be due and payable immediately, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, unpaid principal of the Securities then outstanding shall become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Company is required to file periodic reports with the Trustee as to the absence of Default. 17. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY Firstar Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from and perform services for the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, as if it were not the Trustee. 18. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture nor for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. The Holder of this Security by accepting this Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Security. 19.

INTEREST ChipPAC, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the "COMPANY", which term shall include any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate of 8% per annum. The Company shall pay interest semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2001. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June 22, 2001; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there is not an existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Any reference herein to interest accrued or payable as of any date shall include any Additional Interest accrued or payable on such date as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement. 2. METHOD OF PAYMENT The Company shall pay interest on this Security (except defaulted interest) to the person who is the Holder of this Security at the close of business on June 1 or December 1, as the case may be, next preceding the related interest payment date. The Holder must surrender this Security to a Paying Agent to collect payment of principal. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company may, however, pay principal and interest in respect of any Certificated Security by check or wire payable in such money; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that a Holder with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $2,000,000 will be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the election of such Holder. The Company may mail an interest check to the Holder's registered address. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as this Security is registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, all payments hereon shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. 3. PAYING AGENT, REGISTRAR AND CONVERSION AGENT Initially, Firstar Bank, N.A. (the "TRUSTEE", which term shall include any successor trustee under the Indenture hereinafter referred to) will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, Primary Registrar and Conversion Agent. The Company may change any Paying Agent, Registrar or Conversion Agent without notice to the Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may, subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 4. INDENTURE, LIMITATIONS This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its 8% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due June 15, 2011 (the "SECURITIES"), issued under an Indenture, dated as of June 15, 2001 (together with any supplemental indentures thereto, the "INDENTURE"), between the Company and the Trustee. Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those required by or made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. This Security is subject to all such terms, and the Holder of this Security is referred to the Indenture and said Act for a 5 statement of them. The Securities are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.15 of the Indenture, the Company may issue additional Securities ("ADD ON SECURITIES"). The Indenture does not limit other debt of the Company, secured or unsecured, including Senior Indebtedness. 5. PROVISIONAL AND OPTIONAL REDEMPTION (a) The Company may redeem any portion of the Securities at any time prior to June 15, 2004 (a "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION"), upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (such amount, the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE"), to but excluding the date of redemption (the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION DATE") if (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock has exceeded 150% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days within a period of any 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day prior to the date of mailing of the notice of Provisional Redemption (the "NOTICE DATE"), and (2) a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use for the 30 days following the Provisional Redemption Date unless registration is no longer required. (b) Except as set forth in clause (a) of this Section 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 5 prior to June 15, 2004. Thereafter, the Company shall have the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6. The Optional Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) are as follows for Securities redeemed during the periods set forth below: PERIOD REDEMPTION PRICE - ------ ---------------- Beginning on June 15, 2004 and ending on June 14, 2005......... 104.00% Beginning on June 15, 2005 and ending on June 14, 2006......... 103.33% Beginning on June 15, 2006 and ending on June 14, 2007......... 102.67% Beginning on June 15, 2007 and ending on June 14, 2008......... 102.00% Beginning on June 15, 2008 and ending on June 14, 2009......... 101.33% Beginning on June 15, 2009 and ending on June 14, 2010......... 100.67% Beginning on June 15, 2010 and thereafter ..................... 100.00% in each case together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"); PROVIDED that if the Optional Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of such interest. 6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 20 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. On and after the Redemption Date, subject to the deposit with the Paying Agent of funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Securities or portions of them called for redemption. 6 7. PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF HOLDER UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or any part specified by the Holder (so long as the principal amount of such part is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Securities held by such Holder on the date that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date on which the Company provides Holders notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control (or, if the Company has not provided such, 40 Business Days following the occurrence of a Change of Control), at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof together with accrued interest up to, but excluding, the Change in Control Purchase Date. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Change in Control Purchase Notice (in whole or in a portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 8 CONVERSION A Holder of a Security may convert the principal amount of such Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on June 15, 2011; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Security is called for redemption or subject to purchase upon a Change in Control, the conversion right will terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for redemption or purchase (unless the Company shall default in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such default is cured and such Security is redeemed or purchased). The initial Conversion Price is $9.96 per share, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security is determined by dividing the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based upon the Closing Price (as defined in the Indenture) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice set forth below and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date (excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either case, on a date during the period beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued interest on a converted Security. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such Holder. A Holder may convert a portion of a Security equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. A Security in respect of which a Holder had delivered a Change in Control Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if the Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 7 9. CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, may be deemed to be purchased from the Holders of such Securities at an amount not less than the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date, by one or more investment bankers or other purchasers who may agree with the Company to purchase such Securities from the Holders, to convert them into Common Stock of the Company and to make payment for such Securities to the Paying Agent in trust for such Holders. 10. SUBORDINATION The indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company. Any Holder by accepting this Security agrees to and shall be bound by such subordination provisions and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect. In addition to all other rights of Senior Indebtedness described in the Indenture, the Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and entitled to the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any terms of any instrument relating to the Senior Indebtedness or any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness. 11. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto by law or permitted by the Indenture. 12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS The Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 13. UNCLAIMED MONEY If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment. 14 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequence or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Securities may be waived in a particular instance with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without the consent of or notice to any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder. 8 15. SUCCESSOR CORPORATION When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the predecessor corporation will (except in certain circumstances specified in the Indenture) be released from those obligations. 16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES Under the Indenture, an Event of Default includes: (i) default for 30 days in payment of any interest on any Securities; (ii) default in payment of any principal (including, without limitation, any premium, if any) on the Securities when due; (iii) failure by the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the Indenture or the Securities; (iv) failure by the Company to give notice to the Trustee and Holders of a Change in Control in accordance with the Indenture; and (v) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. If an Event of Default (other than as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare all unpaid principal to the date of acceleration on the Securities then outstanding to be due and payable immediately, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, unpaid principal of the Securities then outstanding shall become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Company is required to file periodic reports with the Trustee as to the absence of Default. 17. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY Firstar Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from and perform services for the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, as if it were not the Trustee. 18. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture nor for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. The Holder of this Security by accepting this Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Security. 19. AUTHENTICATION This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security. 20. ABBREVIATIONS AND DEFINITIONS Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of the Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of 9 survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and UGMA (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

The Transferor has requested a Registrar or the Trustee to exchange or register the transfer of such Securities. In connection with such request and in respect of each such Security, the Transferor does hereby certify that the Transferor is familiar with transfer restrictions relating to the Securities as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture, dated as of June 15, 2001, between ChipPAC, Inc. and Firstar Bank, N.A. (the "INDENTURE"), and the transfer of such Security is being made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") (check applicable box) or the transfer or exchange, as the case may be, of such Security does not require registration under the Securities Act because (check applicable box): [ ] Such Security is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

ARTICLE 2 THE SECURITIES SECTION 2.1 FORM AND DATING The Initial Securities and the Trustee's certificate of authentication shall be substantially in the respective forms set forth in EXHIBIT A, which Exhibit is incorporated in and made part of this Indenture. The Add On Securities shall be substantially in the same form as the Initial Securities with such variations as may be specified in accordance with Section 2.15. Notwithstanding any differences among them, all Securities issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together as a single class, except on matters relating to changes to the interest rate or the Conversion Price of a particular series of the Securities. The Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. (a) RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITIES AND RESTRICTED CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. All of the Securities are initially being offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A -10- (collectively, "QIBS" or individually, each a "QIB") in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and shall be issued initially in the form, at the option of the Initial Purchaser, of one or more (i) Restricted Global Securities, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Securities represented thereby with the Trustee, at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the depositary, The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") (such depositary, or any successor thereto, being hereinafter referred to as the "DEPOSITARY"), and registered in the name of its nominee, Cede & Co., or (ii) Restricted Certificated Securities, and in each case shall be duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Securities Custodian as hereinafter provided, subject in each case to compliance with the Applicable Procedures. (b) GLOBAL SECURITIES IN GENERAL. Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities as shall be specified therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, redemptions, purchases or conversions of such Securities. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Securities Custodian in accordance with the standing instructions and procedures existing between the Depositary and the Securities Custodian. Members of, or participants in, the Depositary ("AGENT MEMBERS") shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary or under any Global Security, and the Depositary (including, for this purpose, its nominee) may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall (A) prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or (B) impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security. (c) CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. In addition to the initial issuance of Restricted Certificated Securities, if any, Certificated Securities shall be issued pursuant to Section 2.12(a)(1) hereof. SECTION 2.2 EXECUTION AND AUTHENTICATION An Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature attested by the manual or facsimile signature of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company. Typographic and other minor errors or defects in any such facsimile signature shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Security which has been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security shall be valid nevertheless. A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. The Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery Initial Securities for original issue in the aggregate principal amount of up to $50,000,000 upon receipt of a written order or orders of the Company signed by two Officers of the Company (a "COMPANY ORDER"). The Company Order shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated, shall provide that all such Securities will be represented by a Restricted -11- Global Security and the date on which each original issue of Securities is to be authenticated. Subject to Section 2.15, the Company may issue Add On Securities. The Trustee shall act as the initial authenticating agent. Thereafter, the Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent shall have the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company. The Securities shall be issuable only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. SECTION 2.3 REGISTRAR, PAYING AGENT AND CONVERSION AGENT The Company shall maintain one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (each, a "REGISTRAR"), one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for payment (each, a "PAYING AGENT"), one or more offices or agencies where Securities may be presented for conversion (each, a "CONVERSION AGENT") and one or more offices or agencies where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company will at all times maintain a Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Registrar and an office or agency where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York. One of the Registrars (the "PRIMARY REGISTRAR") shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any Agent not a party to this Indenture. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or agent for service of notices and demands in any place required by this Indenture, or fails to give the foregoing notice, the Trustee shall act as such. The Company or any Affiliate of the Company may act as Paying Agent (except for the purposes of Section 6.1 and Article 10). The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as Paying Agent, Registrar, Primary Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent. SECTION 2.4 PAYING AGENT TO HOLD MONEY IN TRUST Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal of or interest, if any, on any Securities, the Company shall deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal or interest, if any, so becoming due. Subject to Section 5.7, a Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Security holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest, if any, on the Securities, and if the Paying Agent is different than the Trustee, shall notify the Trustee of any Default by the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities) in making any such payment. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall, before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on each due date of the principal of or interest on any Securities, segregate the money and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee, and the Trustee may at any time during the continuance of any Default, upon written request to a Paying Agent, require such Paying Agent to forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent (other than the Company) shall have no further liability for the money. -12- SECTION 2.5 SECURITY HOLDER LISTS The Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Security holders. If the Trustee is not the Primary Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee on or before each semiannual interest payment date and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Securityholders. SECTION 2.6 TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable additional requirements contained in Section 2.12, when a Security is presented to a Registrar with a request to register a transfer thereof or to exchange such Security for an equal principal amount of Securities of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment form and, if applicable, a transfer certificate each in the form included in EXHIBIT A, and in form satisfactory to the Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing. To permit registration of transfers and exchanges, upon surrender of any Security for registration of transfer or exchange at an office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 2.3, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities of a like aggregate principal amount at the Registrar's request. Any exchange or transfer shall be without charge, except that the Company or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, and provided, that this sentence shall not apply to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.7, 2.10, 2.12(a)(1), 3.6, 3.11, 4.2 (last paragraph) or 11.5. Neither the Company, any Registrar nor the Trustee shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (a) any Securities for a period of 15 days next preceding any mailing of a notice of Securities to be redeemed or any interest payment date, (b) any Securities or portions thereof selected or called for redemption (except, in the case of redemption of a Security in part, the portion not to be redeemed) or (c) any Securities or portions thereof in respect of which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn by the Holder thereof (except, in the case of the purchase of a Security in part, the portion not to be purchased). All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt and entitled to the same benefits, and under identical terms under this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange. (b) Any Registrar appointed pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall provide to the Trustee such information as the Trustee may reasonably require in connection with the delivery by such Registrar of Securities upon transfer or exchange of Securities. (c) Each Holder of a Security agrees to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder's Security in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities law. 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 Security (including any transfers between or among Agent Members or other beneficial owners of interests in any Global Security) 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 -13- express requirements hereof. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for the actions or omissions of the Depositary, or for the accuracy of the books or records of the Depositary. SECTION 2.7 REPLACEMENT SECURITIES If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Company, a Registrar or the Trustee, or the Company, a Registrar and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security, and there is delivered to the Company, the applicable Registrar and the Trustee such Security or indemnity as will be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, such Registrar or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute, and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, or is about to be redeemed or purchased by the Company pursuant to Article 3, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay, redeem or purchase such Security, as the case may be. Upon the issuance of any new Securities under this Section 2.7, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the Trustee or the Registrar) in connection therewith. Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.7 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section 2.7 are (to the extent lawful) exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. SECTION 2.8 OUTSTANDING SECURITIES Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee, except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.8 as not outstanding. If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.7, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Company receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. If a Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds on a Redemption Date, a Change in Control Purchase Date or the Final Maturity Date money sufficient to pay the principal of (including premium, if any) and accrued interest on Securities (or portions thereof) payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof, as the case may be) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. Subject to the restrictions contained in Section 2.9, a Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security. -14- SECTION 2.9 TREASURY SECURITIES In determining whether the Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any notice, direction, waiver or consent given while this Indenture is qualified under the TIA, Securities owned by the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or by any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor shall be disregarded, except that, for purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such notice, direction, waiver or consent, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Securities so owned which have been pledged in good faith shall not be disregarded if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee's right so to act with respect to the Securities and that the pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor on the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. SECTION 2.10 TEMPORARY SECURITIES Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company with the consent of the Trustee considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver definitive Securities in exchange for temporary Securities. SECTION 2.11 CANCELLATION The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent shall forward to the Trustee or its agent any Securities surrendered to them for transfer, exchange, payment or conversion. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel, in accordance with its standard procedures, all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, redemption, payment, conversion or cancellation and shall deliver the canceled Securities to the Company. All Securities which are redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Final Maturity Date shall be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company may not hold or resell such Securities or issue any new Securities to replace any such Securities or any Securities that any Holder has converted pursuant to Article 4. Without limitation to the foregoing, any Securities acquired by any investment bankers or other purchasers pursuant to Section 3.7 shall be surrendered for conversion and thereafter cancelled, and may not be reoffered, sold or otherwise transferred. SECTION 2.12 ADDITIONAL TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE REQUIREMENTS (a) TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF GLOBAL SECURITIES. (1) Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for interests in the Global Securities if (x) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Securities or if it at any time ceases to be a "clearing agency" registered under the Exchange Act, if so required by applicable law or regulation and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, or (y) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In either case, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to delivery promptly), authenticate and deliver Certificated Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Global Securities in exchange therefor. Only Restricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities, and only Unrestricted Certificated Securities shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Unrestricted Global Securities. Certificated Securities issued in exchange for -15- beneficial interests in Global Securities shall be registered in such names and shall be in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver or cause to be delivered such Certificated Securities to the persons in whose names such Securities are so registered. Such exchange shall be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. (2) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.12(a)(1), a Global Security may not be transferred as a whole except 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. (b) TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATED SECURITIES. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities in accordance with Section 2.12(a)(1) of this Indenture, on or after such event when Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to a Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of the Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of Certificated Securities only; or (y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of Certificated Securities of other authorized denominations, such Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for register of transfer or exchange: (1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso to the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a); and (2) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (i) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being delivered to the Registrar by a Holder for registration in the name of such Holder, without transfer, or such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); (ii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A or pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (iii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred (i) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from the Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) and, if the Company or -16- such Registrar so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information reasonably acceptable to the Company and such Registrar to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act. (c) TRANSFER OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN AN UNRESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY. Any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security may upon request, subject to the Applicable Procedures, transfer such beneficial interest to a person who is required or permitted to take delivery thereof in the form of an Unrestricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions, or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of any person having a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security and the following additional information and documents in such form as is customary for the Depositary from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of the person having such beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security (all of which may be submitted by facsimile or electronically): (1) if such beneficial interest is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (2) if such beneficial interest is being transferred (i) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) and, if the Company or the Trustee so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Trustee to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, the Trustee, as a Registrar and Securities Custodian, shall reduce or cause to be reduced the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by the appropriate principal amount and shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security by a like principal amount. Such transfer shall otherwise be effected in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. If no Unrestricted Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver an Unrestricted Global Security. (d) TRANSFER OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN AN UNRESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A RESTRICTED GLOBAL SECURITY. Any person having a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security may upon request, subject to the Applicable Procedures, transfer such beneficial interest to a person who is required or permitted to take delivery thereof in the form of a Restricted Global Security (it being understood that only QIBs may own beneficial interests in Restricted Global Securities). Upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions or such other form of instructions as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee, on behalf of any person having a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security and, in such form as is customary for the Depositary, from the Depositary or its nominee on behalf of the person having such beneficial interest in the Unrestricted Global Security (all of which may be submitted by facsimile or electronically) a certification from the transferor (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such beneficial interest is being transferred to a person that the transferor reasonably believes is a QIB in accordance with Rule 144A. The Trustee, as a Registrar and Securities Custodian, shall reduce or cause to be reduced the aggregate principal amount of the Unrestricted Global Security by the appropriate principal amount and shall increase or cause to be increased the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Global Security by a like principal amount. Such transfer shall otherwise be effected in accordance with the -17- Applicable Procedures. If no Restricted Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order (which the Company agrees to deliver promptly), authenticate and deliver a Restricted Global Security. (e) TRANSFERS OF CERTIFICATED SECURITIES FOR BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN GLOBAL SECURITIES. In the event that Certificated Securities are issued in exchange for beneficial interests in Global Securities and, thereafter, the events or conditions specified in Section 2.12(a)(1) which required such exchange shall cease to exist, the Company shall mail notice to the Trustee and to the Holders stating that Holders may exchange Certificated Securities for interests in Global Securities by complying with the procedures set forth in this Indenture and briefly describing such procedures and the events or circumstances requiring that such notice be given. Thereafter, if Certificated Securities are presented by a Holder to a Registrar with a request: (x) to register the transfer of such Certificated Securities to a person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, which request shall specify whether such Global Security will be a Restricted Global Security or an Unrestricted Global Security; or (y) to exchange such Certificated Securities for an equal principal amount of beneficial interests in a Global Security, which beneficial interests will be owned by the Holder transferring such Certificated Securities (provided that in the case of such an exchange, Restricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Restricted Global Securities and Unrestricted Certificated Securities may be exchanged only for Unrestricted Global Securities), the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested by canceling such Certificated Security and causing, or directing the Securities Custodian to cause, the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Global Security to be increased accordingly and, if no such Global Security is then outstanding, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Global Security; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Certificated Securities presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange: (1) shall be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in accordance with the proviso to the first paragraph of Section 2.6(a); (2) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by the following additional information and documents, as applicable: (i) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate); or (ii) if such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred pursuant to (i) an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144 or (ii) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (other than pursuant to Rule 144A or Rule 144) and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (ii), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144, a certification to that effect from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate), and, if the Company or the Registrar so requests, a customary opinion of counsel, certificates and other information -18- reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Trustee to the effect that such transfer is in compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act; (3) in the case of a Restricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by a certification from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such Restricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB (which, in the case of an exchange, shall be such Holder) in accordance with Rule 144A; (4) in the case of an Unrestricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, such request need not be accompanied by any additional information or documents; and (5) in the case of an Unrestricted Certificated Security to be transferred or exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, such request shall be accompanied by a certification from such Holder (in substantially the form set forth in the Transfer Certificate) to the effect that such Unrestricted Certificated Security is being transferred to a person the Holder reasonably believes is a QIB (which, in the case of an exchange, shall be such Holder) in accordance with Rule 144A. (f) LEGENDS- (1) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (2) and (3), each Global Security and Certificated Security (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or upon registration of transfer or replacement thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the form called for by footnote 2 to EXHIBIT A hereto (each a "TRANSFER RESTRICTED SECURITY" for so long as it is required by this Indenture to bear such legend). Each Transfer Restricted Security shall have attached thereto a certificate (a "TRANSFER CERTIFICATE") in substantially the form called for by footnote 5 to EXHIBIT A hereto. (2) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Security (w) after the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales of the Securities under Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act, (x) pursuant to Rule 144, (y) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (z) pursuant to any other available exemption (other than Rule 144A) from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and as a result of which, in the case of a Security transferred pursuant to this clause (z), such Security shall cease to be a "restricted security" within the meaning of Rule 144: (i) in the case of any Restricted Certificated Security, any Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Restricted Certificated Security for an Unrestricted Certificated Security, or (under the circumstances described in Section 2.12(e)) to transfer such Restricted Certificated Security to a transferee who shall take such Security in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security, and in each case shall rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Security; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Holder of such Restricted Certificated Security shall, in connection with such exchange or transfer, comply with the other applicable provisions of this Section 2.12; and (ii) in the case of any beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security, the Trustee shall permit the beneficial owner thereof to transfer such beneficial interest to a transferee who shall take such interest in the form of a beneficial interest in an Unrestricted Global Security and shall rescind any restriction on transfer of such beneficial interest; -19- PROVIDED, that such Unrestricted Global Security shall continue to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a)(2); and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the owner of such beneficial interest shall, in connection with such transfer, comply with the other applicable provisions of this Section 2.12. (3) Upon the exchange, registration of transfer or replacement of Securities not bearing the legend described in paragraph (1) above, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities that do not bear such legend and that do not have a Transfer Certificate attached thereto. (4) After the expiration of the holding period pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act, the Company may with the consent of the Holder of a Restricted Global Security or Restricted Certificated Security, remove any restriction of transfer on such Security, and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities that do not bear such legend and that do not have a Transfer Certificate attached thereto. (g) TRANSFERS TO THE COMPANY. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities shall prohibit the sale or other transfer of any Securities (including beneficial interests in Global Securities) to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which Securities shall thereupon be cancelled in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2.11. SECTION 2.13 CUSIP NUMBERS The Company in issuing the Securities may use "CUSIP" numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use "CUSIP" numbers in notices of redemption or purchase as a convenience to 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 Securities or as contained in any notice of a redemption or purchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption or purchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the "CUSIP" numbers. SECTION 2.14 DEFAULTED INTEREST Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any interest payment date ("DEFAULTED INTEREST"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant regular record date, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company as follows. The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit 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 Interest as in this section provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment, and notify the Trustee thereof. The Trustee shall, in the name and at the expense of the Company, cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to be given to each Holder of Securities pursuant to Section 12.2, not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the special record date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be -20- paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on such special record date. Alternatively, the Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest on the Securities in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, and upon any such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this section, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. SECTION 2.15 ADD ON SECURITIES (a) The Company may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Indenture, create and issue Add On Securities, without the consent of the Holders; provided, however, that so long as the Initial Purchaser remains a Holder, no Add On Securities shall be issued which would result in the aggregate principal amount of all Add On Securities issued pursuant to this Section 2.15 exceeding $49,000,000 unless consented to in writing by the Initial Purchaser. The Add On Securities shall have terms and conditions identical to those of the outstanding Securities, except that Add On Securities: (i) may have a different Issue Date than other the outstanding Securities; (ii) may have a different interest rate than is payable on the other outstanding Securities; (iii) may have a different Conversion Price than other outstanding Securities; and (iv) may have terms specified in the Add On Security Board Resolutions or Add On Security Supplemental Indenture for such Add On Securities making appropriate adjustments to this ARTICLE II and EXHIBIT A (and related definitions) applicable to such Add On Securities in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws) which are not adverse in any material respect to the Holder of any outstanding Securities (other than such Add On Securities) and which shall not affect the rights or duties of the Trustee. (b) In authenticating any Add On Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Add On Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon: (i) a Company Order; (ii) the Add On Security Board Resolutions or Add On Security Supplemental Indenture relating thereto; (iii) an Officers' Certificate complying with Section 12.4; and (iv) an Opinion of Counsel complying with Section 12.4 stating, -21- (A) that the forms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or by an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.15 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (B) the terms of such Securities have been established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or by an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, as permitted by this Section 2.15 and in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture; (C) that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any customary conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits provided in the Indenture, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the enforcement of such obligations may be subject to bankruptcy laws or insolvency laws or other similar laws, general principles of equity and such other qualifications as such counsel shall conclude are customary or do not materially affect the rights of the Holders of such Securities; (D) that all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery of the Securities have been complied with; and (E) such other matters as the Trustee may reasonably request. (c) If such forms or terms have been so established by or pursuant to Add On Security Board Resolutions or an Add On Security Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Securities: (i) if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken; (ii) if the Trustee by its committee of Trust Officers in good faith determines that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to Holders of any outstanding Securities; or (iii) if the issue of such Add On Securities pursuant to this Indenture will affect the Trustee's own rights, duties and immunities under the Securities and this Indenture or otherwise in a manner which is not reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. (d) Add On Securities shall be a separate series of Securities under this Indenture, unless (i) no "original issue discount" within the meaning of Section 1257 of the Code results from the issuance of such Add On Securities; and (ii) the terms of such Add On Securities are identical to the terms of the Initial Securities; except for the Issue Date and the amount of interest payable at the first interest payment date. -22- Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.15, the Company may not issue Add On Securities if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. ARTICLE 3 REDEMPTION AND PURCHASES SECTION 3.1 PROVISIONAL AND OPTIONAL REDEMPTION; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE (a) The Company may redeem any portion of the Securities at any time prior to June 15, 2004 (a "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION"), upon giving notice as set forth in Section 3.3, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (such amount, the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE"), to but excluding the date of redemption (the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION DATE") if (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock has exceeded 150% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days within a period of any 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of mailing of the notice of Provisional Redemption (the "NOTICE DATE"), and (2) a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use for the 30 days following the Provisional Redemption Date unless registration is no longer required. (b) Except as set forth in clause (a) of this Section 3.1, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 3.1 prior to June 15, 2004. Thereafter, the Company shall have the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") upon giving notice as set forth in Section 3.3 at the Redemption Prices (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE") specified in paragraph 5 of the form of Security attached hereto as EXHIBIT A, together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"); PROVIDED that if the Optional Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders in whose name the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of such interest. If the Company elects to redeem Securities pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section 3.1 and paragraph 5 of the Securities, it shall notify the Trustee, at the earlier of the time the Company notifies the Holders of such redemption or 45 days prior to the Redemption Date as fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), of the Redemption Date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed. If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the record date relating to such redemption shall be selected by the Company and given to the Trustee, which record date shall not be less than ten days after the date of notice to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to determine whether the Securities are eligible for Provisional Redemption, and may conclusively rely on any such determination by the Company. Any redemption pursuant to clause (a) or clause (b) of this Section 3.1 shall be made pursuant to the applicable provisions of Sections 3.2 through 3.7 and Section 3.12 hereof. SECTION 3.2 SELECTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REDEEMED If fewer than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall, not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, select the Securities to be redeemed. The Trustee shall make the selection from the Securities outstanding and not previously called for redemption, by lot, or in its discretion, on a PRO RATA basis. Securities in denominations of $1,000 may only be redeemed in whole. The Trustee may select for -23- redemption portions (equal to $1,000 or any multiple thereof) of the principal of Securities that have denominations larger than $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. If any Security selected for partial redemption is converted in part before termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Security so selected, the converted portion of such Security shall be deemed to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed shall be treated by the Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection. SECTION 3.3 NOTICE OF REDEMPTION At least 20 days but not more than 60 days before a Redemption Date, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at such Holder's address as it appears on the Primary Registrar's books. The notice shall identify the Securities (including CUSIP numbers) to be redeemed and shall state: (1) the Redemption Date; (2) the Redemption Price; (3) the then current Conversion Price; (4) the name and address of each Paying Agent and Conversion Agent; (5) that Securities called for redemption must be presented and surrendered to a Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price; (6) that Holders who wish to convert Securities must surrender such Securities for conversion no later than the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date and must satisfy the other requirements in paragraph 8 of the Securities; (7) that, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Securities called for redemption shall cease accruing on and after the Redemption Date and the only remaining right of the Holder shall be to receive payment of the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest, if any upon presentation and surrender to a Paying Agent of the Securities; and (8) if any Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Security to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date, upon presentation and surrender of such Security, a new Security or Securities in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued. If any of the Securities to be redeemed is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to redemptions. At the Company's written request, which request shall (i) be irrevocable once given and (ii) set forth all relevant information required by clauses (1) through (8) of the preceding paragraph, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company's name and at the Company's expense. -24- SECTION 3.4 EFFECT OF NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the Redemption Price stated in the notice, together with accrued interest, if any, except for Securities that are converted in accordance with the provisions of Article 4. Upon presentation and surrender to a Paying Agent, Securities called for redemption shall be paid at the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest up to but not including the Redemption Date; PROVIDED if the Redemption Date is an interest payment date, interest will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record dates for payment of such interest. SECTION 3.5 DEPOSIT OF REDEMPTION PRICE The Company, prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Redemption Date, shall deposit with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company acts as Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on all Securities to be redeemed on that date, other than Securities or portions thereof called for redemption on that date which have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation or have been converted. The Paying Agent shall return to the Company any money not required for that purpose because of the conversion of Securities pursuant to Article 4 or, if such money is then held by the Company in trust and is not required for such purpose, it shall be discharged from the trust. SECTION 3.6 SECURITIES REDEEMED IN PART Upon presentation and surrender of a Security that is redeemed in part, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Security equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Security surrendered. SECTION 3.7 CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION In connection with any redemption of Securities, the Company may arrange for the purchase and conversion of any Securities called for redemption by an agreement with one or more investment bankers or other purchasers to purchase such Securities by paying to a Paying Agent (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) in trust for the Holders, on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, an amount that, together with any amounts deposited with such Paying Agent by the Company for the redemption of such Securities, is not less than the Redemption Price, together with interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date, of such Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 3, the obligation of the Company to pay the Redemption Price of such Securities, including all accrued interest, shall be deemed to be satisfied and discharged to the extent such amount is so paid by such purchasers; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that nothing in this Section 3.7 shall relieve the Company of its obligation to pay the Redemption Price, plus accrued interest to but excluding the relevant Redemption Date, on Securities called for redemption. If such an agreement with one or more investment banks or other purchasers is entered into, any Securities called for redemption and not surrendered for conversion by the Holders thereof prior to the relevant Redemption Date may, at the option of the Company upon written notice to the Trustee, be deemed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, acquired by such purchasers from such Holders and (notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Article 4) surrendered by such purchasers for conversion, all as of 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, subject to payment of the above amount as aforesaid. The Paying Agent shall hold and pay to the Holders whose Securities are selected for redemption any such amount paid to it for purchase in the same manner as it would money deposited with it by the Company for the redemption of Securities. Without the Paying Agent's prior written consent, no arrangement between the Company and such purchasers for the purchase and conversion of any Securities shall increase or otherwise affect any of the powers, duties, -25- responsibilities or obligations of the Paying Agent as set forth in this Indenture, and the Company agrees to indemnify the Paying Agent from, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with any such arrangement for the purchase and conversion of any Securities between the Company and such purchasers, including the costs and expenses incurred by the Paying Agent in the defense of any claim or liability arising out of or in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers, duties, responsibilities or obligations under this Indenture. SECTION 3.8 PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF THE HOLDER UPON CHANGE IN CONTROL (a) If at any time that Securities remain outstanding there shall occur a Change in Control, Securities shall be purchased by the Company at the option of the Holders thereof as of the date (the "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE DATE") that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date on which the Company provides Holders notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control (or if the Company has not therefore provided such, the 40th Business Day following the occurrence of a Change in Control) at a purchase price equal to the principal amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Change in Control Purchase Date (the "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE PRICE"), subject to satisfaction by or on behalf of any Holder of the requirements set forth in subsection (c) of this Section 3.8. A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the following occurs after the date hereof: (1) any "person" or "group" (as such terms are defined below), other than one or more Permitted Holders, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, of shares of Voting Stock of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power of all outstanding classes of Voting Stock of the Company or such person or group has the power, directly or indirectly, to elect a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company; or (2) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, another Person or the Company sells, assigns, conveys, transfers, leases or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any such event other than pursuant to a transaction in which the Persons that "beneficially owned" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, shares of Voting Stock of the Company immediately prior to such transaction "beneficially own" (as defined below), directly or indirectly, shares of Voting Stock of the Company representing at least a majority of the total voting power of all outstanding classes of Voting Stock of the surviving or transferee Person; or (3) there shall occur the liquidation or dissolution of the Company. For the purpose of the definition of "Change in Control", (i) "person" and "group" have the meanings given such terms under Section 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act or any successor provision to either of the foregoing, and the term "group" includes any group acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision thereto), (ii) a "beneficial owner" shall be determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of this Indenture, except that the number of shares of Voting Stock of the Company shall be deemed to include, in addition to all outstanding shares of Voting Stock of the Company and Unissued Shares deemed to be held by the "person" or "group" (as such terms are defined above) or other Person with respect to which the Change in Control determination is being made, all Unissued Shares deemed to be held by all other Persons, and (iii) the terms "beneficially owned" and "beneficially own" shall have meanings correlative to that of "beneficial owner." The term "Unissued Shares" means shares of Voting Stock not outstanding that are subject to options, -26- warrants, rights to purchase or conversion privileges exercisable within 60 days of the date of determination of a Change in Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 3.8, a Change in Control will not be deemed to have occurred if either: (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock for any five Trading Days during the ten Trading Days immediately preceding the Change in Control is at least equal to 105% of the Conversion Price in effect on such Trading Day; or (2) in the case of a merger or consolidation, at least 90% of the consideration (excluding cash payments for fractional shares in the merger or consolidation constituting the Change in Control) consists of common stock traded on a United States national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market (or which will be so traded or quoted when issued or exchanged in connection with such Change In Control) and as a result of such transaction or transactions the Securities become convertible solely into such common stock. (b) within 10 Business Days after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company shall mail a written notice of the Change in Control to the Trustee (and the Paying Agent if the Trustee is not then acting as Paying Agent) and to each Holder (and to beneficial owners as required by applicable law). The notice shall include the form of a Change in Control Purchase Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall state: (1) the date of such Change in Control and, briefly, the events causing such Change in Control; (2) the date by which the Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to this Section 3.8 must be given; (3) the Change in Control Purchase Date; (4) the Change in Control Purchase Price; (5) briefly, the conversion rights of the Securities; (6) the name and address of each Paying Agent and Conversion Agent; (7) the Conversion Price and any adjustments thereto; (8) that Securities as to which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given may be converted into Common Stock pursuant to Article 4 of this Indenture only to the extent that the Change in Control Purchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; (9) the procedures that the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 3.8; (10) the procedures for withdrawing a Change in Control Purchase Notice, including a form of notice of withdrawal; and -27- (11) that the Holder must satisfy the requirements set forth in the Securities in order to convert the Securities. If any of the Securities is in the form of a Global Security, then the Company shall modify such notice to the extent necessary to accord with the procedures of the Depositary applicable to the repurchase of Global Securities. (c) A Holder may exercise its rights specified in subsection (a) of this Section 3.8 upon delivery of a written notice (which shall be in substantially the form included in EXHIBIT A hereto and which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of the exercise of such rights (a "CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE NOTICE") to any Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date. The delivery of such Security to any Paying Agent (together with all necessary endorsements) at the office of such Paying Agent shall be a condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Change in Control Purchase Price therefor. The Company shall purchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 3.8, a portion of a Security if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of the Indenture that apply to the purchase of all of a Security pursuant to Sections 3.8 through 3.13 also apply to the purchase of such portion of such Security. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to a Paying Agent the Change in Control Purchase Notice contemplated by this subsection (c) shall have the right to withdraw such Change in Control Purchase Notice in whole or in a portion thereof that is a principal amount of $1,000 or in an integral multiple thereof at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.9. A Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Change in Control Purchase Notice or written withdrawal thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, any Change in Control Purchase Notice may be delivered or withdrawn and such Securities may be surrendered or delivered for purchase in accordance with the Applicable Procedures as in effect from time to time. SECTION 3.9 EFFECT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE NOTICE Upon receipt by any Paying Agent of the Change in Control Purchase Notice specified in Section 3.8(c), the Holder of the Security in respect of which such Change in Control Purchase Notice was given shall (unless such Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn as specified below) thereafter be entitled to receive the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to such Security. Such Change in Control Purchase Price shall be paid to such Holder promptly following the later of (a) the Change in Control Purchase Date with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section 3.8(c) have been satisfied) and (b) the time of delivery of such Security to a Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 3.8(c). Securities in respect of which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted into shares of Common Stock on or after the date of the delivery of such Change in Control Purchase Notice unless such Change in Control Purchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn. -28- A Change in Control Purchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice (which may be delivered by letter, overnight courier, hand delivery, facsimile transmission or in any other written form and, in the case of Global Securities, may be delivered electronically or by other means in accordance with the Depositary's customary procedures) of withdrawal delivered by the Holder to a Paying Agent at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date, specifying the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof (which must be a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted. SECTION 3.10 DEPOSIT OF CHANGE IN CONTROL PURCHASE PRICE On or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Change in Control Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) an amount of money (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day) sufficient to pay the aggregate Change in Control Purchase Price of all the Securities or portions thereof that are to be purchased as of such Change in Control Purchase Date. The manner in which the deposit required by this Section 3.10 is made by the Company shall be at the option of the Company, provided that such deposit shall be made in a manner such that the Trustee or a Paying Agent shall have immediately available funds on the Change in Control Purchase Date. If a Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms hereof, money sufficient to pay the Change in Control Purchase Price of any Security for which a Change in Control Purchase Notice has been tendered and not withdrawn in accordance with this Indenture then, on the Change in Control Purchase Date, such Security will cease to be outstanding and the rights of the Holder in respect thereof shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Change in Control Purchase Price as aforesaid). The Company shall publicly announce the principal amount of Securities purchased as a result of such Change in Control on or as soon as practicable after the Change in Control Purchase Date. SECTION 3.11 SECURITIES PURCHASED IN PART Any Security that is to be purchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of a Paying Agent and promptly after the Change in Control Purchase Date the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Security so surrendered that is not purchased. SECTION 3.12 COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS UPON PURCHASE OF SECURITIES In connection with any offer to purchase or purchase of Securities under Section 3.8, the Company shall (a) comply with Rule 13e-4 and Rule 14e-1 (or any successor to either such Rule), if applicable, under the Exchange Act, (b) file the related Schedule TO (or any successor or similar schedule, form or report) if required under the Exchange Act, and (c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with such offer to purchase or purchase of Securities, all so as to permit the rights of the Holders and obligations of the Company under Sections 3.8 through 3.11 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified therein. -29- SECTION 3.13 REPAYMENT TO THE COMPANY To the extent that the aggregate amount of cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.10 exceeds the aggregate Change in Control Purchase Price together with interest, if any, thereon of the Securities or portions thereof that the Company is obligated to purchase, then promptly after the Change in Control Purchase Date the Trustee or a Paying Agent, as the case may be, shall return any such excess cash (including any interest thereon) to the Company. ARTICLE 4 CONVERSION SECTION 4.1 CONVERSION PRIVILEGE Subject to the further provisions of this Section 4.1, a Holder of a Security may, at the Holder's option, convert the principal amount of such Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) into Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on the Final Maturity Date, at the Conversion Price then in effect; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that, if such Security is called for redemption or submitted or presented for purchase pursuant to Article 3, such conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for redemption or for purchase (unless the Company shall Default in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price payment when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such Default is cured and such Security is redeemed or purchased, as the case may be). The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security shall be determined by dividing the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof surrendered for conversion by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. The initial Conversion Price is set forth in paragraph 8 of the Securities and is subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 4. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to conversion of a portion of a Security. A Security in respect of which a Holder has delivered a Change in Control Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 3.8(c) exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if such Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn by a written notice of withdrawal delivered to a Paying Agent prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date in accordance with Section 3.9. A Holder of Securities is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until such Holder has converted its Securities to Common Stock, and only to the extent such Securities are deemed to have been converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Article 4. SECTION 4.2 CONVERSION PROCEDURE To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice on the back of the Security and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. The date on which the Holder satisfies all of those requirements is the "CONVERSION DATE." As soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, the Company shall deliver to the Holder through a Conversion Agent a certificate for the number of whole shares of Common -30- Stock issuable upon the conversion and cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 4.3. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the case of Global Securities, conversion notices may be delivered and such Securities may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the Applicable Procedures as in effect from time to time. The person in whose name the Common Stock certificate is registered shall be deemed to be a stockholder of record on the Conversion Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no surrender of a Security on any date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock upon such conversion as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock on such date, but such surrender shall be effective to constitute the person or persons entitled to receive such shares of Common Stock as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes at the close of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open; PROVIDED, FURTHER, that such conversion shall be at the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date as if the stock transfer books of the Company had not been closed. Upon conversion of a Security, such person shall no longer be a Holder of such Security. No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends or distributions on shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Security. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date (excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either case, on the date during the period beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.2, no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued interest on a converted Security. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such Holder. Nothing in this Section shall affect the right of a Holder in whose name any Security is registered at the close of business on a record date to receive the interest payable on such Security on the related interest payment date in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and the Securities. If a Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate principal amount of Securities converted. Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Security equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered. SECTION 4.3 FRACTIONAL SHARES The Company will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Securities. In lieu thereof, the Company will pay an amount in cash based upon the Closing Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. -31- SECTION 4.4 TAXES ON CONVERSION If a Holder converts a Security, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares of Common Stock upon such conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificate representing the Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder's name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation. SECTION 4.5 COMPANY TO PROVIDE STOCK The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Securities hereunder, and from time to time as may be necessary, reserve, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of all outstanding Securities into shares of Common Stock. All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Securities shall be newly issued shares, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim. The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Securities, if any, and will list or cause to have quoted such shares of Common Stock on each national securities exchange or on the Nasdaq National Market or other over-the-counter market or such other market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if rules of such automated quotation system or exchange permit the Company to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first conversion of the Notes into Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Company covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with the requirements of such automated quotation system or exchange at such time. SECTION 4.6 ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE The conversion price as stated in paragraph 8 of the Securities (the "CONVERSION PRICE") shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows: (a) In case the Company shall (i) pay a dividend on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (iii) subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iv) combine its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Security thereafter surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive that number of shares of Common Stock which it would have owned had such Security been converted immediately prior to the happening of such event. An adjustment made pursuant to this subsection (a) shall become effective immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of subdivision or combination. (b) In case the Company shall issue rights or warrants to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock entitling them (for a period commencing no earlier than the record date described below and expiring not more than 60 days after such record date) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or securities convertible into Common Stock) at a price per share (or having a conversion price per share) less than the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders -32- entitled to receive such rights or warrants (provided, however, if such rights or warrants are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain events, then the Conversion Price shall not be adjusted unless and until such triggering events occur), the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior thereto shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such record date by a fraction of which (x) the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of shares which the aggregate offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered (or the aggregate conversion price of the convertible securities so offered, which shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such convertible securities by the conversion price per share of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of such convertible securities) would purchase at the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on such record date, and of which (y) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such record date plus the number of additional shares of Common Stock offered (or into which the convertible securities so offered are convertible). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such rights or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after such record date. If at the end of the period during which such rights or warrants are exercisable not all rights or warrants shall have been exercised, the adjusted Conversion Price shall be immediately readjusted to what it would have been based upon the number of additional shares of Common Stock actually issued (or the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of convertible securities actually issued). (c) In case the Company shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those rights and warrants referred to in subsection (b) of this Section 4.6), then in each such case, for so long as such rights or warrants shall not have expired or been redeemed by the Company, the Holder of any Security surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion, the following: (i) If conversion occurs on or prior to the date for distribution of certificates evidencing such rights or warrants (the "DISTRIBUTION DATE"), the Holder shall be entitled to the same number of rights or warrants that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion is entitled; and (ii) if conversion occurs after the Distribution Date, the Holder shall be entitled to the same number of rights or warrants that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which the Holder would have owned had such Security been converted immediately prior to the Distribution Date, in accordance with the terms and provisions applicable to such rights or warrants. (d) In case the Company shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company (other than Common Stock), evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets (including securities of any person other than the Company but excluding (1) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash or (2) dividends or distributions referred to in subsection (a) of this Section 4.6), or shall distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities which rights or warrants have expired or have been redeemed prior to conversion of any Securities (excluding those rights and warrants referred to in subsections (b) or (c) of this Section 4.6), then in each such case the Conversion Price shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the current Conversion Price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the record date mentioned below less the fair market value on such record date (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of the portion of the capital stock, evidences of indebtedness or -33- other non-cash assets so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the record date), and of which the denominator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on such record date; provided, however, that in the case of rights or warrants which have expired or have been redeemed, such determination shall be made as of the time of expiration or redemption, rather than the record date, and shall be based upon the value immediately prior to such expiration or upon the redemption price, as the case may be. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. (e) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, at any time distribute (a "TRIGGERING DISTRIBUTION") to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock cash in an aggregate amount that, together with the aggregate amount of (A) any cash and the fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any other consideration payable in respect of any tender offer by the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company for Common Stock consummated within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of the Triggering Distribution and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made and (B) all other all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of the Triggering Distribution and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made, exceeds an amount equal to 12.5% of the product of the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the Business Day (the "DETERMINATION DATE") immediately preceding the day on which such Triggering Distribution is declared by the Company multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Determination Date (excluding shares held in the treasury of the Company), the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying such Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Determination Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Determination Date less the sum of the aggregate amount of cash and the aggregate fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence of such fair market value and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any such other consideration so distributed, paid or payable within such 12 months (including, without limitation, the Triggering Distribution) applicable to one share of Common Stock (determined on the basis of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Determination Date) and the denominator shall be such Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Determination Date, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date on which the Triggering Distribution is paid. (f) (1) In case any tender offer made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for Common Stock shall expire and such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall involve the payment of aggregate consideration in an amount (determined as the sum of the aggregate amount of cash consideration and the aggregate fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee thereof) of any other consideration) that, together with the aggregate amount of (A) any cash and the fair market value (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive evidence thereof and which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee) of any other consideration payable in respect of any other tender offers by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company for Common Stock consummated within the 12 months preceding the date of the Expiration Date (as defined below) and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made and (B) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock made within the 12 months preceding the Expiration Date and in respect of which no Conversion Price adjustment pursuant to this Section 4.6 has been made, exceeds an amount equal to 12.5% of the product of the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock as of the last date (the "EXPIRATION DATE") tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) (the last -34- time at which such tenders could have been made on the Expiration Date is hereinafter sometimes called the "EXPIRATION TIME") multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including tendered shares but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time, then, immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the Expiration Date, the Conversion Price shall be reduced so that the same shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to close of business on the Expiration Date by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including tendered shares but excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time multiplied by the Current Market Price Per Share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date and the denominator shall be the sum of (x) the aggregate consideration (determined as aforesaid) payable to stockholders based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of all shares validly tendered and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted, up to any such maximum, being referred to as the "PURCHASED SHARES") and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares and excluding any shares held in the treasury of the Company) at the Expiration Time and the Current Market Price Per Share of Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, such reduction to become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the Expiration Date. In the event that the Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender offer, but the Company is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any or all such purchases or any or all such purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Price shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Price which would have been in effect based upon the number of shares actually purchased. If the application of this Section 4.6(f) to any tender offer would result in an increase in the Conversion Price, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer under this Section 4.6(f). (2) For purposes of Section 4.6(e) and 4.6(f), the term "tender offer" shall mean and include both tender offers and exchange offers (within the meaning of U.S. Federal securities laws), all references to "purchases" of shares in tender offers (and all similar references) shall mean and include both the purchase of shares in tender offers and the acquisition of shares pursuant to exchange offers, and all references to "tendered shares" (and all similar references) shall mean and include shares tendered in both tender offers and exchange offers. (g) For the purpose of any computation under subsections (b), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 4.6, the current market price per share of Common Stock (the "CURRENT MARKET PRICE PER SHARE") on any date shall be deemed to be the average of the daily Closing Prices for the 30 consecutive Trading Days commencing 45 Trading Days before (i) the Determination Date or the Expiration Date, as the case may be, with respect to distributions or tender offers under subsection (f) of this Section 4.6 or (ii) the record date with respect to distributions, issuances or other events requiring such computation under subsection (b), (d) or (e) of this Section 4.6. The Closing Price for each day (the "CLOSING PRICE") shall be the last reported sales price or, in case no such reported sale takes place on such date, the average of the reported closing bid and asked prices in either case on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") or the Nasdaq National Market (the "NNM"), as applicable, or, if the Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on the NYSE or the NNM, the principal national securities exchange or quotation system on which the Common Stock is quoted or listed or admitted to trading or, if not quoted or listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or quotation system, the closing sales price or, in case no reported sale takes place, the average of the closing bid and asked prices, as furnished by any two members of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. selected from time to time by the Company for that purpose. If no such prices are available, the Current Market Price Per Share shall be the fair value of a share of Common Stock as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (which shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee). (h) In any case in which this Section 4.6 shall require that an adjustment be made following a record date or a Determination Date or Expiration Date, as the case may be, established for purposes -35- of this Section 4.6, the Company may elect to defer (but only until five Business Days following the filing by the Company with the Trustee of the certificate described in Section 4.9) issuing to the Holder of any Security converted after such record date or Determination Date or Expiration Date the shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company issuable upon such conversion over and above the shares of Common Stock and other capital stock of the Company issuable upon such conversion only on the basis of the Conversion Price prior to adjustment; and, in lieu of the shares the issuance of which is so deferred, the Company shall issue or cause its transfer agent to issue due bills or other appropriate evidence prepared by the Company of the right to receive such shares. If any distribution in respect of which an adjustment to the Conversion Price is required to be made as of the record date or Determination Date or Expiration Date therefor is not thereafter made or paid by the Company for any reason, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or such effective date or Determination Date or Expiration Date had not occurred. SECTION 4.7 NO ADJUSTMENT No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Conversion Price as last adjusted; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 4.7 are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article 4 shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. No adjustment need be made for issuances of Common Stock pursuant to a Company plan for reinvestment of dividends or interest or for a change in the par value or a change to no par value of the Common Stock. To the extent that the Securities become convertible into the right to receive cash, no adjustment need be made thereafter as to the cash. Interest will not accrue on the cash. SECTION 4.8 ADJUSTMENT FOR TAX PURPOSES The Company shall be entitled to make such reductions in the Conversion Price, in addition to those required by Section 4.6, as it in its discretion shall determine to be advisable in order that any stock dividends, subdivisions of shares, distributions of rights to purchase stock or securities or distributions of securities convertible into or exchangeable for stock hereafter made by the Company to its stockholders shall not be taxable. SECTION 4.9 NOTICE OF ADJUSTMENT Whenever the Conversion Price or conversion privilege is adjusted, the Company shall promptly mail to Securityholders a notice of the adjustment and file with the Trustee an Officers' Certificate briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. Unless and until the Trustee shall receive an Officers' Certificate setting forth an adjustment of the Conversion Price, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that the Conversion Price has not been adjusted and that the last Conversion Price of which it has knowledge remains in effect. -36- SECTION 4.10 NOTICE OF CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS In the event that: (1) the Company takes any action which would require an adjustment in the Conversion Price; (2) the Company consolidates or merges with, or transfers all or substantially all of its property and assets to, another corporation and shareholders of the Company must approve the transaction; or (3) there is a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Company shall mail to Holders and file with the Trustee a notice stating the proposed record or effective date, as the case may be. The Company shall mail the notice at least ten days before such date. Failure to mail such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any transaction referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) of this Section 4.10. SECTION 4.11 EFFECT OF RECLASSIFICATION, CONSOLIDATION, MERGER OR SALE ON CONVERSION PRIVILEGE If any of the following shall occur, namely: (a) any reclassification or change of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination, or any other change for which an adjustment is provided in Section 4.6); (b) any consolidation or merger or combination to which the Company is a party other than a merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding shares of Common Stock; or (c) any sale or conveyance as an entirety or substantially as an entirety of the property and assets of the Company, directly or indirectly, to any person, then the Company, or such successor, purchasing or transferee corporation, as the case may be, shall, as a condition precedent to such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that the Holder of each Security then outstanding shall have the right to convert such Security into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of such Security immediately prior to such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments of the Conversion Price which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments of the Conversion Price provided for in this Article 4. If, in the case of any such consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance, the stock or other securities and property (including cash) receivable thereupon by a holder of Common Stock include shares of stock or other securities and property of a person other than the successor, purchasing or transferee corporation, as the case may be, in such consolidation, merger, combination, sale or conveyance, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Securities as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing. The provisions of this Section 4.11 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, combinations, consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances. In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (x) an Officers' Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders of the -37- Securities upon the conversion of their Securities after any such reclassification, change, combination, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with and (y) an Opinion of Counsel that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders. SECTION 4.12 TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER The Trustee shall have no duty to determine when an adjustment under this Article 4 should be made, how it should be made or what such adjustment should be, but may accept as conclusive evidence of that fact or the correctness of any such adjustment, and shall be protected in relying upon, an Officers' Certificate including the Officers' Certificate with respect thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.9. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of Securities, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company's failure to comply with any provisions of this Article 4. The Trustee shall not be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to Section 4.11, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness thereof, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the Officers' Certificate with respect thereto which the Company is obligated to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.11. SECTION 4.13 VOLUNTARY REDUCTION The Company from time to time may voluntarily reduce the Conversion Price by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least 20 days and if the reduction is irrevocable during the period if the Board of Directors approves such reduction and the Company provides 15 days prior notice of any voluntary reduction in the Conversion Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event may the Company reduce the Conversion Price to be less than the par value of a share of Common Stock. ARTICLE 5 SUBORDINATION SECTION 5.1 AGREEMENT OF SUBORDINATION The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Securities issued hereunder by its acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Securities shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article 5; and each Person holding any Security, whether upon original issue or upon transfer, assignment or exchange thereof, accepts and agrees to be bound by such provisions. The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on all Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture) issued hereunder shall, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of all Senior Indebtedness, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred. No provision of this Article 5 shall prevent the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder. -38- SECTION 5.2 PAYMENTS TO HOLDERS No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities to be called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 5.5, if: (i) a default in the payment of principal, premium, interest, rent or other obligations due on any Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Designated Senior Indebtedness for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument or lease evidencing such Designated Senior Indebtedness), unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on a Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing that then permits holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a "PAYMENT BLOCKAGE NOTICE") from a Representative or holder of Designated Senior Indebtedness. Subject to the provisions of Section 5.5, if the Trustee receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant to clause (ii) above, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until at least 365 days shall have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee (unless such default was waived, cured or otherwise ceased to exist and thereafter subsequently reoccurred) shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Securities upon the earlier of: (a) the date upon which the default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or (b) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) above, 179 days pass after a Payment Blockage Notice is received, unless this Article 5 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at the time of such payment or distribution. Upon any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary) or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceedings, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash, or other payments satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment is made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (except payments made pursuant to Article 10 from monies deposited with the Trustee pursuant thereto prior to commencement of proceedings for such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization); and upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled, except for the provision of this Article 5, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Holders of the Securities or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, -39- directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (PRO RATA to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash, or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of the Securities or to the Trustee. For purposes of this Article 5, the words, "cash, property or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article 5 with respect to the Securities to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding; PROVIDED that (i) the Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new corporation, if any, resulting from any reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness (other than leases which are not assumed by the Company or the new corporation, as the case may be) are not, without the consent of such Holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article 7 shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of this Section 5.2 if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article 7. In the event of the acceleration of the Securities because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Trustee or any Holder of Securities in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities (including, but not limited to, the Redemption Price with respect to the Securities called for redemption or the Change in Control Purchase Price with respect to the Securities subject to purchase in accordance with Article 3 as provided in this Indenture), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by the first or second paragraph of Section 5.5, until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness. Nothing in this Section 5.2 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 9.7. This Section 5.2 shall be subject to the further provisions of Section 5.5. -40- SECTION 5.3 SUBROGATION OF SECURITIES Subject to the payment in full, in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, of all Senior Indebtedness, the rights of the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5 (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company which by its express terms is subordinated to other indebtedness of the Company to substantially the same extent as the Securities are subordinated and is entitled to like rights of subrogation) to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior Indebtedness until the principal, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities shall be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness; and, for the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article 5, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5, to or for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Securities or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness; and no payments or distributions of cash, property or securities to or for the benefit of the Holders of the Securities pursuant to the subrogation provisions of this Article 5, which would otherwise have been paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or for the account of the Securities. It is understood that the provisions of this Article 5 are and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article 5 or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the Holders of the Securities, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon Default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article 5 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article 5, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such bankruptcy, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of the Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 5. SECTION 5.4 AUTHORIZATION TO EFFECT SUBORDINATION Each Holder of a Security by the Holder's acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on the Holder's behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Article 5 and appoints the Trustee to act as the Holder's attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. If the Trustee does not file a proper proof of claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding referred to in Section 5.3 hereof at least 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such -41- claim, the holders of any Senior Indebtedness or their representatives are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Securities. SECTION 5.5 NOTICE TO TRUSTEE The Company shall give prompt written notice in the form of an Officers' Certificate to a Trust Officer of the Trustee and to any Paying Agent of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee or any Paying Agent in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 5 or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Securities pursuant to the provisions of this Article 5, unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof at the Corporate Trust Office from the Company (in the form of an Officers' Certificate) or a Representative or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness; and before the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, shall be entitled in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; PROVIDED that if on a date not fewer than one Business Day prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any such monies may become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on any Security) the Trustee shall not have received, with respect to such monies, the notice provided for in this Section 5.5, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it on or after such prior date. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 5 to the contrary, nothing shall prevent any payment by the Trustee to the Holders of monies deposited with it pursuant to Article 10, and any such payment shall not be subject to the provisions of Article 5. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Representative or a person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness to establish that such notice has been given by a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 5, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article 5, and if such evidence is not furnished the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment. SECTION 5.6 TRUSTEE'S RELATION TO SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article 5 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in Section 9.11 or elsewhere in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Article 5, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Section 9.1, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder of Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Holders of Securities, the Company or any other person money or assets to which any holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 5 or otherwise. -42- SECTION 5.7 NO IMPAIRMENT OF SUBORDINATION No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with. SECTION 5.8 CERTAIN CONVERSIONS DEEMED PAYMENT For the purposes of this Article 5 only, (1) the issuance and delivery of junior securities upon conversion of Securities in accordance with Article 4 shall not be deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on Securities or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Securities, and (2) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash (except in satisfaction of fractional shares pursuant to Section 4.3), property or securities (other than junior securities) upon conversion of a Security shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of such Security. For the purposes of this Section 5.8, the term "junior securities" means (a) shares of any stock of any class of the Company, or (b) securities of the Company which are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness which may be outstanding at the time of issuance or delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Securities are so subordinated as provided in this Article. Nothing contained in this Article 5 or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of the Holder of any Security to convert such Security in accordance with Article 4. SECTION 5.9 ARTICLE APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term "Trustee" as used in this Article shall (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the first paragraph of Section 5.5 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. SECTION 5.10 SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS ENTITLED TO RELY The holders of Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Designated Senior Indebtedness) shall have the right to rely upon this Article 5, and no amendment or modification of the provisions contained herein shall diminish the rights of any such holder except in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 11.2. ARTICLE 6 COVENANTS SECTION 6.1 PAYMENT OF SECURITIES The Company shall promptly make all payments in respect of the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided in the Securities and this Indenture. An installment of principal or interest or Additional Interest, if any, shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Paying Agent (other than the Company) holds by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that date money, deposited by the Company or an Affiliate thereof, -43- sufficient to pay the installment. The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay interest on overdue principal (including premium, if any) and overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Securities per annum. The conversion of any Securities pursuant to Article 4 hereof, together with the making of any cash payments required to be made in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture, shall satisfy the Company's obligations under this Section 6.1 with respect to such Securities. Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on the Securities shall be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address appears in the Register; PROVIDED FURTHER that a Holder with an aggregate principal amount in excess of $2,000,000 will be paid by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the election of such Holder. SECTION 6.2 SEC REPORTS The Company shall file all reports and other information and documents which it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, and within 15 days after it files them with the SEC, the Company shall file copies of all such reports, information and other documents with the Trustee. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee's receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company's compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates). SECTION 6.3 COMPLIANCE CERTIFICATES The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001), an Officers' Certificate as to the signers' knowledge of the Company's compliance with all conditions and covenants on its part contained in this Indenture and stating whether or not the signers know of any Default or Event of Default. If such signers know of such a Default or Event of Default, the Officers' Certificate shall describe the Default or Event of Default and the efforts to remedy the same. For the purposes of this Section 6.3, compliance shall be determined without regard to any grace period or requirement of notice provided pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. SECTION 6.4 FURTHER INSTRUMENTS AND ACTS Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. SECTION 6.5 MAINTENANCE OF CORPORATE EXISTENCE Subject to Article 7, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. -44- SECTION 6.6 RULE 144A INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS Within the period prior to the expiration of the holding period applicable to sales thereof under Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), the Company covenants and agrees that it shall, during any period in which it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Exchange Act, make available to any Holder or beneficial holder of Securities or any Common Stock issued upon conversion thereof which continue to be Restricted Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of Securities or such Common Stock designated by such Holder or beneficial holder, the information required pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act upon the request of any Holder or beneficial holder of the Securities or such Common Stock and it will take such further action as any Holder or beneficial holder of such Securities or such Common Stock may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder or beneficial holder to sell its Securities or Common Stock without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemption provided by Rule 144A, as such Rule may be amended from time to time. Upon the written request of any Holder or any beneficial holder of the Securities or such Common Stock, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. SECTION 6.7 STAY, EXTENSION AND USURY LAWS 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 which would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Securities as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which 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. SECTION 6.8 PAYMENT OF ADDITIONAL INTEREST If Additional Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. ARTICLE 7 CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE SECTION 7.1 COMPANY MAY CONSOLIDATE, ETC., ONLY ON CERTAIN TERMS The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person (in a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving corporation) or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless: (1) in case the Company shall consolidate with or merge into another Person (in a transaction in which the Company is not the surviving corporation) or convey, transfer or lease its -45- properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person which acquires by conveyance or transfer, or which leases, the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety shall be a corporation or limited liability company organized and validly existing under (i) the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia or (ii) under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States and has common stock or American Depository Shares representing the common stock traded on a national securities exchange in the United States or through Nasdaq National Market (provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such transaction and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and at the same times as would have been the case if such transaction had not occurred) and (iii) shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the due and punctual payment of the principal of and any premium and interest on all the Securities and the performance or observance of every covenant of this Indenture on the part of the Company to be performed or observed and the conversion rights shall be provided for in accordance with Article 4, by supplemental indenture satisfactory in form to the Trustee, executed and delivered to the Trustee, by the Person (if other than the Company) formed by such consolidation or into which the Company shall have been merged or by the Person which shall have acquired the Company's assets; (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have happened and be continuing; and (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with. SECTION 7.2 SUCCESSOR SUBSTITUTED Upon any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person or any conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety in accordance with Section 7.1, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or to which such conveyance, transfer or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Company herein, and thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the predecessor Person shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. SECTION 7.3 WITHHOLDING TAXES All payments made under or with respect to the Securities must be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other governmental charge of whatever nature (including penalties, interest and other liabilities related thereto) imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction from or through which payment is made or in which the payor is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes or any province or territory thereof or by any taxing authority therein (hereinafter "TAXES"), unless the Company is required to withhold or deduct such Taxes by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. If the Company is so required to withhold or deduct any amount for or on account of Taxes from any payment made under or with respect to the Securities, the Company will pay such additional amounts ("ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS") as may be necessary so that the net amount received by each Holder after such withholding or deduction (including any withholding or -46- deduction with respect to Additional Amounts) will not be less than the amount the Holder would have received if such Taxes had not been withheld or deducted; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to payments made to a Holder (an "EXCLUDED HOLDER") to the extent such Holder is subject to such Taxes by reason of its being connected with a foreign jurisdiction thereof otherwise than by the mere holding of the Securities or the receipt of payments thereunder or the enforcement of its rights and obligations under the Securities. The Company will make such withholding or deduction and remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant authority as and when required in accordance with applicable law. The Company will furnish to the Holder, within 30 days after the payment of any Taxes, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Company. The Company will upon written request of each Holder (other than an Excluded Holder), reimburse each such Holder for the amount of (i) any Taxes (including penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto) imposed or levied and paid by such Holder as a result of payments made under or with respect to the Securities and (ii) any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Holder with respect to any reimbursement under the foregoing clause (i), but excluding any such Taxes on such Holder's net income, so that the net amount received by such Holder after such reimbursement will not be less than the net amount the Holder would have received if Taxes (other than such Taxes on such Holder's net income) on such reimbursement had not been imposed. At least 30 days prior to each date on which payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises shortly before or after the 30th day prior to such date, in which case promptly thereafter), if the Company is obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment, the Company will deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and setting forth such other information as necessary to enable the Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders of the Securities on the payment date. The Company will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of the Securities, the Indenture or any other document or instrument in relation thereof, or the receipt of any payments with respect to the Securities, excluding such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction other than (i) any jurisdiction in which the Company is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes, (ii) any jurisdiction in which any successor to the Company is organized, resident or engaged in business for tax purposes or (iii) any jurisdiction in which a Paying Agent is located. In addition, the Company will agree to indemnify the Holders (on an after-tax basis) for any such Taxes paid by such Holders. The obligations described under this heading shall survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture. ARTICLE 8 DEFAULT AND REMEDIES SECTION 8.1 EVENTS OF DEFAULT An "Event of Default" shall occur if: (1) the Company defaults in the payment of any interest or Additional Interest, if any, payable to all holders of Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) on any Security when the same becomes due and payable and the default continues for a period of 30 days, whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by the provisions of Article 5 hereof; -47- (2) the Company defaults in the payment of any principal of (including, without limitation, any premium, if any, on) any Security when the same becomes due and payable (whether at maturity, upon redemption, on a Change in Control Purchase Date or otherwise), whether or not such payment shall be prohibited by the provisions of Article 5 hereof; (3) the Company fails to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the Securities or this Indenture and the default continues for the period and after the notice specified below; (4) the Company fails to give notice to the Trustee and each Holder of a Change in Control in accordance with Section 3.8(b); (5) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding; (ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property; or (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding; (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for all or substantially all of the property of the Company; or (iii) orders the liquidation of the Company; and in each case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days. The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11 of the United States Code (or any successor thereto) or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. A Default under clause (3) above is not an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding notify the Company and the Trustee, of the Default, and the Company does not cure the Default within 60 days after receipt of such notice. The notice given pursuant to this Section 8.1 must specify the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a "Notice of Default." When any Default under this Section 8.1 is cured, it ceases. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless written notice thereof shall have been given to a Trust Officer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee by the Company, a Paying Agent, any Holder or any agent of any Holder. -48- SECTION 8.2 ACCELERATION If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, declare all unpaid principal on the Securities then outstanding (if not then due and payable) to be due and payable upon any such declaration, and the same shall become and be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1 occurs, all unpaid principal of the Securities then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if (a) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Securities which has become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived; (b) to the extent the payment of such interest is lawful, interest (calculated at the rate per annum borne by the Securities) on overdue installments of interest and overdue principal, which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, has been paid; and (c) the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 8.3 OTHER REMEDIES If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of the principal of or interest on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Securities or this Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. SECTION 8.4 WAIVER OF DEFAULTS AND EVENTS OF DEFAULT Subject to Sections 8.7 and 11.2, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequence, except a Default or Event of Default (i) in the payment of the principal of or interest, if any, including the Redemption Price upon redemption pursuant to Section 3.1, on any Security, (ii) in respect of a failure by the Company to convert any Securities into Common Stock, or (iii) any Default or Event of Default in respect of any provision of this Indenture or the Securities which, under Section 11.2, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Security affected. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and ceases. SECTION 8.5 CONTROL BY MAJORITY The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, that the Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of another Holder or the Trustee, or that may involve the Trustee in personal liability unless the Trustee is offered indemnity satisfactory to it; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction. -49- SECTION 8.6 LIMITATIONS ON SUITS No Holder has any right to institute any proceeding under this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or a trustee, or for any other remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities (except actions for payment of overdue principal or interest or for the conversion of the Securities pursuant to Article 4) unless: (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default; (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee; (3) such Holder or Holders offer reasonable indemnity to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over such other Securityholder. SECTION 8.7 RIGHTS OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PAYMENT AND TO CONVERT Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of a Security to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, including the Redemption Price upon redemption pursuant to Section 3.1, on the Security, on or after the respective due dates therefor, to convert such Security in accordance with Article 4 and to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or the right to convert, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder. SECTION 8.8 COLLECTION SUIT BY TRUSTEE If an Event of Default in the payment of principal or interest specified in clause (1) or (2) of Section 8.1 occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company or another obligor on the Securities for the whole amount of principal and accrued interest remaining unpaid, together with, to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue principal and on overdue installments of interest, in each case at the rate per annum borne by the Securities and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. SECTION 8.9 TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be 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 the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company (or any other obligor on the Securities), its creditors or its property -50- and shall be entitled and empowered to collect and receive any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same and to take any other action with respect to such claims, including participation as a member of any official committee of creditors appointed in the matters as it deems necessary or advisable, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 9.7, and to the extent that such payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances 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, money, securities and other property which the Holders 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, on behalf of any Holder, to authorize, accept or adopt any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities 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. SECTION 8.10 PRIORITIES If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 8, it shall pay out the money in the following order: First, to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 9.7; Second, to the holders of Senior Indebtedness to the extent required by Article 5; Third, to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal and interest, respectively; and Fourth, to the Company. The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 8.10. SECTION 8.11 UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS 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, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 8.11 does not apply to a suit made by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 8.7, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. -51- ARTICLE 9 TRUSTEE SECTION 9.1 DUTIES OF TRUSTEE (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

The Trustee, however, shall examine any certificates and opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be delivered to the Trustee to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture.

(d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers unless the Trustee shall have received adequate indemnity in its opinion against potential costs and liabilities incurred by it relating thereto. (e) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to subsections (a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 9.1.

(c) The Trustee may act through its agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care.

Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to Sections 9.10 and 9.11. SECTION 9.4 TRUSTEE'S DISCLAIMER The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company's use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities other than its certificate of authentication. SECTION 9.5 NOTICE OF DEFAULT OR EVENTS OF DEFAULT If a Default or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if it is known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. However, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interests of Securityholders, except in the case of a Default or an Event of Default in payment of the principal of or interest on any Security. SECTION 9.6 REPORTS BY TRUSTEE TO HOLDERS If such report is required by TIA Section 313, within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with May 15, 2002, the Trustee shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA Section 313(b)(2) and (c). A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be mailed to the Company and filed with the SEC and each stock exchange, if any, on which the Securities are listed or quoted. The Company shall notify the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange or listed or admitted to trading on any quotation system and any changes in the stock exchanges or quotation systems on which the Securities are listed or admitted to trading and of any delisting thereof. SECTION 9.7 COMPENSATION AND INDEMNITY The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time such compensation (as agreed to from time to time by the Company and the Trustee in writing) for its services. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable, actual disbursements, expenses and advances incurred or made by it. Such expenses may include the reasonable, actual compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee's agents and counsel. All rights, protections and benefits of the Trustee shall extend to the Trustee acting as Conversion Agent, Paying Agent, Registrar, Primary Registrar or other Agent with respect hereto. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (which for purposes of this Section 9.7 shall include its officers, directors, employees and agents) for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture or any action or failure to act as authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon the Trustee hereunder including the reasonable costs and expenses of the Trustee and its counsel in defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Company -54- promptly of any claim asserted against the Trustee for which it may seek indemnity. The Company need not pay for any settlement without its written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company need not reimburse the Trustee for any expense or indemnify it against any loss or liability incurred by it resulting from its own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. To secure the Company's payment obligations in this Section 9.7, the Trustee shall have a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except such money or property held in trust to pay the principal of and interest on the Securities. The obligations of the Company under this Section 9.7 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or the resignation or removal of the Trustee. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in clause (5) or (6) of Section 8.1 occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture. SECTION 9.8 REPLACEMENT OF TRUSTEE The Trustee may resign by so notifying the Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may, with the Company's written consent, appoint a successor Trustee. The Company may remove the Trustee if: (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10; (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (4) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. The resignation or removal of a Trustee shall not be effective until a successor Trustee shall have delivered the written acceptance of its appointment as described below. If a successor Trustee does not take office within 45 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee at the expense of the Company. If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 9.10, any Holder may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee and be released from its obligations (exclusive of any liabilities that the retiring Trustee may have incurred while acting as Trustee) hereunder, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder. -55- A retiring Trustee shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Trustee after its succession. Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 9.8, the Company's obligations under Section 9.7 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. SECTION 9.9 SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE BY MERGER, ETC. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust assets (including the administration of this Indenture) to, another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation, without any further act, shall be the successor Trustee, provided such transferee corporation shall qualify and be eligible under Section 9.10. Such successor Trustee shall promptly mail notice of its succession to the Company and each Holder. SECTION 9.10 ELIGIBILITY; DISQUALIFICATION The Trustee shall always satisfy the requirements of paragraphs (1), (2) and (5) of TIA Section 310(a).

The Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of TIA Section 310(b). Nothing herein shall prevent the Trustee from filing with the SEC the application referred to in the penultimate paragraph of TIA Section 310(b).

A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the extent indicated therein. ARTICLE 10 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE SECTION 10.1 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of conversion, registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for and except as further provided below), and the Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (1) either (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.7 and (y) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Company as provided in Section 10.3) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (x) have become due and payable, (y) will become due and payable at the Final Maturity Date -56- within ninety days, or (z) have been called for redemption within ninety days under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, and the Company, in the case of clause (i) or (ii) above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or a Paying Agent (other than the Company or any of its Affiliates) as trust funds in trust for the purpose cash in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal and interest or Redemption Price, as the case may be, to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the Final Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be; (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers' 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.

SECTION 10.3 REPAYMENT TO COMPANY The Trustee and each Paying Agent shall promptly pay to the Company upon request any excess money (i) deposited with them pursuant to Section 10.1 and (ii) held by them at any time. The Trustee and each Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest that remains unclaimed for two years after a right to such money has matured; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such payment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be mailed to each Holder entitled to such money notice that (x) such money remains unclaimed and (y) after a date specified therein, which shall be at least 30 days from the date of such mailing, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors. SECTION 10.4 REINSTATEMENT If the Trustee or any Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 10.2 by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Company's obligations under -57- this Indenture and the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 10.1 until such time as the Trustee or such Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 10.2; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Company has made any payment of the principal of or interest on any Securities because of the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive any such payment from the money held by the Trustee or such Paying Agent. ARTICLE 11 AMENDMENTS, SUPPLEMENTS AND WAIVERS SECTION 11.1 WITHOUT CONSENT OF HOLDERS The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities without notice to or consent of any Securityholder: (a) to comply with Sections 4.11 and 7.1; (b) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities (provided that the uncertificated Securities are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code, or in a manner such that the uncertificated Securities are described in Section 163(f)(2)(B) of the Code); (c) to comply with the provisions of the TIA; (d) to comply with any requirements of the SEC in connection with qualifying, or maintaining qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; (e) to appoint a successor Trustee; (f) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (g) to make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder; or (h) to provide for the issuance of Add On Securities under the conditions specified in Section 2.15. SECTION 11.2 WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS The Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. The Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities without notice to any Securityholder. However, notwithstanding the foregoing but subject to Section 11.4, without the written consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 8.4, may not: (a) change the stated maturity of the principal of, or interest on, any Security; -58- (b) reduce the principal amount of, or any premium or interest on, any Security; (c) reduce the amount of principal payable upon acceleration of the maturity of any Security; (d) change the place or currency of payment of principal of, or any premium or interest on, any Security; (e) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on, or with respect to, any Security; (f) modify the subordination provisions of Article 5 in a manner materially adverse to the Holders of Securities; (g) adversely affect the right of Holders to convert Securities other than as provided in or under Article 4 of this Indenture; (h) reduce the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities whose Holders must consent to a modification or amendment of this Indenture; and (i) modify any of the provisions of this Section or Section 8.4, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that specified additional provisions of this Indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Security affected thereby. It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 11.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 11.2 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver. An amendment or supplement under this Section 11.2 or under Section 11.1 may not make any change that adversely affects the rights under Article 5 of any holder of an issue of Senior Indebtedness unless the holders of that issue, pursuant to its terms, consent to the change. SECTION 11.3 COMPLIANCE WITH TRUST INDENTURE ACT Every amendment to or supplement of this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as in effect at the date of such amendment or supplement. SECTION 11.4 REVOCATION AND EFFECT OF CONSENTS Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Security. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to its Security or portion of a Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. -59- After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder, unless it makes a change described in any of clauses (a) through (i) of Section 11.2. In that case the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security. SECTION 11.5 NOTATION ON OR EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. SECTION 11.6 TRUSTEE TO SIGN AMENDMENTS, ETC. The Trustee shall sign any amendment or supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 11 if the amendment or supplemental indenture does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, in its sole discretion, but need not sign it. In signing or refusing to sign such amendment or supplemental indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and, subject to Section 9.1, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Company may not sign an amendment or supplemental indenture until the Board of Directors approves it, which approval shall be confirmed by an Officers' Certificate of the Company to such effect.

The Company shall pay interest semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2001. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from June 22, 2001; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if there is not an existing Default in the payment of interest and if this Security is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding interest payment date, interest shall accrue from such interest payment date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Any reference herein to interest accrued or payable as of any date shall include any Additional Interest accrued or payable on such date as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement. 2.

Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those required by or made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, as in effect on the date of the Indenture. This A-6 Security is subject to all such terms, and the Holder of this Security is referred to the Indenture and said Act for a statement of them. The Securities are subordinated unsecured obligations of the Company. Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.15 of the Indenture, the Company may issue additional Securities ("ADD ON SECURITIES"). The Indenture does not limit other debt of the Company, secured or unsecured, including Senior Indebtedness. 5. PROVISIONAL AND OPTIONAL REDEMPTION (a) The Company may redeem any portion of the Securities at any time prior to June 15, 2004 (a "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION"), upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6, at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (such amount, the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION PRICE"), to but excluding the date of redemption (the "PROVISIONAL REDEMPTION DATE") if (1) the Closing Price of the Common Stock has exceeded 150% of the Conversion Price for at least 20 Trading Days within a period of any 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day prior to the date of mailing of the notice of Provisional Redemption (the "NOTICE DATE"), and (2) a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Securities and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof is effective and available for use and is expected to remain effective and available for use for the 30 days following the Provisional Redemption Date unless registration is no longer required. (b) Except as set forth in clause (a) of this Section 5, the Company shall not have the option to redeem the Securities pursuant to this Section 5 prior to June 15, 2004. Thereafter, the Company shall have the option to redeem any portion of the Securities (an "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION") upon giving notice as set forth in Section 6. The Optional Redemption Prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount) are as follows for Securities redeemed during the periods set forth below: PERIOD REDEMPTION PRICE - ------ ---------------- Beginning on June 15, 2004 and ending on June 14, 2005...... 104.00% Beginning on June 15, 2005 and ending on June 14, 2006...... 103.33% Beginning on June 15, 2006 and ending on June 14, 2007...... 102.67% Beginning on June 15, 2007 and ending on June 14, 2008...... 102.00% Beginning on June 15, 2008 and ending on June 14, 2009...... 101.33% Beginning on June 15, 2009 and ending on June 14, 2010...... 100.67% Beginning on June 15, 2010 and thereafter .................. 100.00% in each case together with accrued interest up to but not including the date of redemption (the "OPTIONAL REDEMPTION DATE"); PROVIDED that if the Optional Redemption Date falls after an interest payment record date and on or before an interest payment date, then the interest payment will be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the close of business on the relevant record date for payment of such interest. 6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Notice of redemption will be mailed by first-class mail at least 20 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at its registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part, but only in whole multiples of $1,000. On and after the Redemption Date, subject to the deposit with the Paying Agent of funds sufficient to pay the Redemption Price plus accrued interest, if any, accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on Securities or portions of them called for redemption. A-7 7. PURCHASE OF SECURITIES AT OPTION OF HOLDER UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL At the option of the Holder and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall become obligated to purchase all or any part specified by the Holder (so long as the principal amount of such part is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of the Securities held by such Holder on the date that is not less than 20 nor more than 30 Business Days after the date on which the Company provides Holders notice of the occurrence of a Change in Control (or, if the Company has not provided such, 40 Business Days following the occurrence of a Change of Control), at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof together with accrued interest up to, but excluding, the Change in Control Purchase Date. The Holder shall have the right to withdraw any Change in Control Purchase Notice (in whole or in a portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day next preceding the Change in Control Purchase Date by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. 8. CONVERSION A Holder of a Security may convert the principal amount of such Security (or any portion thereof equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) into shares of Common Stock at any time prior to the close of business on June 15, 2011; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if the Security is called for redemption or subject to purchase upon a Change in Control, the conversion right will terminate at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date or the Change in Control Purchase Date, as the case may be, for such Security or such earlier date as the Holder presents such Security for redemption or purchase (unless the Company shall default in making the redemption payment or Change in Control Purchase Price, as the case may be, when due, in which case the conversion right shall terminate at the close of business on the date such default is cured and such Security is redeemed or purchased). The initial Conversion Price is $9.96 per share, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a Security is determined by dividing the principal amount of the Security or portion thereof converted by the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion; in lieu thereof, an amount will be paid in cash based upon the Closing Price (as defined in the Indenture) of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Conversion Date. To convert a Security, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the conversion notice set forth below and deliver such notice to a Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Security to a Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by a Registrar or a Conversion Agent, and (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required. Securities so surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the period from the close of business on any regular record date to the opening of business on the next succeeding interest payment date (excluding Securities or portions thereof which are either (i) called for redemption or (ii) subject to purchase following a Change in Control, in either case, on a date during the period beginning at the close of business on a regular record date and ending at the opening of business on the first Business Day after the next succeeding interest payment date, or if such interest payment date is not a Business Day, the second such Business Day) shall also be accompanied by payment in funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on such interest payment date on the principal amount of such Security then being converted, and such interest shall be payable to such registered Holder notwithstanding the conversion of such Security, subject to the provisions of this Indenture relating to the payment of defaulted interest by the Company. Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, no payment or adjustment will be made for accrued interest on a converted Security. If the Company defaults in the payment of interest payable on such interest payment date, the Company shall promptly repay such funds to such Holder. A Holder may convert a portion of a Security equal to $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. A Security in respect of which a Holder had delivered a Change in Control Purchase Notice exercising the option of such Holder to require the Company to purchase such Security may be converted only if the Change in Control Purchase Notice is withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. A-8 9. CONVERSION ARRANGEMENT ON CALL FOR REDEMPTION Any Securities called for redemption, unless surrendered for conversion before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, may be deemed to be purchased from the Holders of such Securities at an amount not less than the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date, by one or more investment bankers or other purchasers who may agree with the Company to purchase such Securities from the Holders, to convert them into Common Stock of the Company and to make payment for such Securities to the Paying Agent in trust for such Holders. 10. SUBORDINATION The indebtedness evidenced by the Securities is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company. Any Holder by accepting this Security agrees to and shall be bound by such subordination provisions and authorizes the Trustee to give them effect. In addition to all other rights of Senior Indebtedness described in the Indenture, the Senior Indebtedness shall continue to be Senior Indebtedness and entitled to the benefits of the subordination provisions irrespective of any amendment, modification or waiver of any terms of any instrument relating to the Senior Indebtedness or any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness. 11. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. A Holder may register the transfer of or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes or other governmental charges that may be imposed in relation thereto by law or permitted by the Indenture. 12. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS The Holder of a Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 13. UNCLAIMED MONEY If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, Holders entitled to money must look to the Company for payment. 14. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding, and an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequence or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Securities may be waived in a particular instance with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding. Without the consent of or notice to any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder. A-9 15. SUCCESSOR CORPORATION When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Securities and the Indenture in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the predecessor corporation will (except in certain circumstances specified in the Indenture) be released from those obligations. 16. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES Under the Indenture, an Event of Default includes: (i) default for 30 days in payment of any interest on any Securities; (ii) default in payment of any principal (including, without limitation, any premium, if any) on the Securities when due; (iii) failure by the Company for 60 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements contained in the Indenture or the Securities; (iv) failure by the Company to give notice to the Trustee and Holders of a Change in Control in accordance with the Indenture; and (v) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. If an Event of Default (other than as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may declare all unpaid principal to the date of acceleration on the Securities then outstanding to be due and payable immediately, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default occurs as a result of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, unpaid principal of the Securities then outstanding shall become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder, all as and to the extent provided in the Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests. The Company is required to file periodic reports with the Trustee as to the absence of Default. 17. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY Firstar Bank, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from and perform services for the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, as if it were not the Trustee. 18. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS A director, officer, employee or shareholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture nor for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. The Holder of this Security by accepting this Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of this Security. 19. AUTHENTICATION This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security. A-10 20.

(a) The Company shall, at its cost, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 150 days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") and thereafter shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective a registration statement (the "SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), within 220 days of the Closing Date, relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 8(d) hereof) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the "SHELF REGISTRATION"); Registration Rights Agreement - Page 2 PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Holder (other than the Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. (b) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Transfer Restricted Securities, for a period of two (2) years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 2(h) below or by the last sentence of this Section 1(b)) from the date of its effectiveness or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer Transfer Restricted Securities as defined in Section 8(d) hereof (in any such case, such period being called the "SHELF REGISTRATION PERIOD"). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Securities covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Securities during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable law or (ii) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 2(b)(v) below, such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons and the Company thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 2(h) hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the extent the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective prior to the 180th day following the Closing Date, the period of effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement provided for in this Section 1(b) shall be extended by the number of days in the period from the effectiveness date of such Shelf Registration Statement to the 180th day following the Closing Date. (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (d) Each Holder agrees that if such Holder wishes to sell such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus, it will do so in accordance with this Section 1(d). Each Holder wishing to sell Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus agrees to deliver a Notice and Questionnaire (the form of which is attached as ANNEX A hereto) to the Company. The Company will include in the Shelf Registration Statement as a selling securityholder each Holder that delivers such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Shelf Registration Statement any Holder which fails to provide such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date but otherwise provides such properly completed Notice and Registration Rights Agreement - Page 3 Questionnaire prior to the commencement of the Shelf Registration Period. Except as described above and below, the Company shall have no obligation to include in the Shelf Registration Statement a Holder which fails to provide the Company with such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. From and after the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall, as promptly as is practicable after the date a properly completed Notice and Questionnaire is delivered, and in any event within thirty (30) days after such date, (i) if required by law, file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law, file a supplement to the related prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with applicable law and, if the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practical, but in any event by the date that is thirty (30) business days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this clause to be filed; (ii) provide such Holder copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); PROVIDED, THAT if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a period in which the use of such prospectus is suspended pursuant to Section 2(h) hereof, the Company shall so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of such suspension period. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that has not supplied the requisite information as required by and in accordance with the procedures and time periods set forth in this Section 1(d) as a selling securityholder in any Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 2.

(c) The Company shall make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement. (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference).

(h) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 2(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall as required hereby prepare and file a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities included within the coverage of such Shelf Registration Statement, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may delay filing and distributing any such supplement or amendment (and continue the suspension of the use of the related prospectus) if the Company determines in good faith that such supplement or amendment would, in the reasonable judgement of the Company, (i) interfere with or affect the negotiation or completion of a transaction that is being contemplated by the Company or (ii) involve initial or continuing disclosure obligations that are not in the best interests of the Company's stockholders at such time; provided, further, that neither such delay nor such suspension shall extend for a period of more than 90 consecutive days or an aggregate of 180 days in any twelve-month period. If the Company notifies the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 2(b) above to suspend the use of such prospectus until the requisite changes to such prospectus have been made, then the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 1(b) above shall be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Purchaser and the Holders of the Securities shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 2(h).

(k) The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "TRUST INDENTURE ACT"), in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. (l) Each Holder agrees, by acquisition of the Securities, that no Holder of Securities shall be entitled to sell any of such Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration Statement or to receive a prospectus relating thereto, unless such Holder has furnished the Company with a Notice and Questionnaire as required pursuant to and in accordance with Section 1(d) hereof and the information set forth in the next sentence.

Within 10 days after receipt of any such request, the Company will give notice of such request to all other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities ("OTHER HOLDERS"). Thereafter, the Company will use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration on an appropriate form under the Securities Act and will include in such registration, subject to Section 3(e) below, all Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Initiating Holders and Other Holders with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within 15 days after the receipt of the Company's notice. All registrations initiated by an Initiating Holder pursuant to this Section 3(a) are referred to herein as "DEMAND REGISTRATIONS." Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company need not effect any requested Demand Registration unless the expected gross proceeds of such registration exceed $15,000,000. (b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 3(a) above to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration pursuant to Section 3(a) above: (i) In any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such registration, unless the Company is already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities Act; Registration Rights Agreement - Page 8 (ii) During the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's estimated date of filing of, and ending on one hundred twenty (120) days immediately following the effective date of, any registration statement pertaining to securities of the Company (other than a registration of securities in a Rule 145 transaction or with respect to an employee benefit plan), provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith all reasonable effects to cause such registration statement to become effective; (iii) After the Company has effected two (2) such registrations pursuant to Section 3(a), and such registrations have been declared or ordered effective; (iv) If the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors it would be seriously detrimental to the Company or its stockholders for a registration statement to be filed in the near future, then the Company's obligation to use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply under Section 3(a) shall be deferred for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of receipt of written request from an Initiating Holder; provided that the Company may not exercise this deferral right more than once per twelve (12) month period. (c) A registration requested pursuant to Section 3(a) shall not be deemed to have been effected (i) unless a registration statement with respect thereto has been declared effective by the Commission, (ii) if after it has become effective, such registration is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or the order or requirement of the Commission or other governmental agency or court for any reason, and, as a result thereof, the Transfer Restricted Securities covered thereby have not been sold or (iii) the registration statement does not remain effective for a period expiring the earlier of 90 days after the effective date thereof or the completion of the distribution of the Transfer Restricted Securities included in such registration statement. The Holders of the Transfer Restricted Securities shall be permitted to withdraw all or any part of the Transfer Restricted Securities from a Demand Registration at any time prior to the effective date of such Demand Registration; provided that in the event of, and concurrently with such withdrawal, the Holders responsible for such Demand Registration shall either (i) pay or reimburse the Company for all fees and expenses (including counsel fees and expense) incurred by them and the Company prior to such withdrawal or (ii) agree to forfeit one of its Demand Registration rights hereunder. (d) In the event that a registration pursuant to Section 3(a) is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as part of the notice given pursuant to Section 3(a). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 3(a) shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in the underwriting arrangements required by this Section 3, and the inclusion of such Holder's Transfer Restricted Securities in the underwriting to the extent requested shall be limited to the extent provided herein. The Company shall (together with all Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter Registration Rights Agreement - Page 9 selected for such underwriting by the Initiating Holder, but subject to the Company's reasonable approval. (e) If the Company includes in any underwritten Demand Registration any securities which are not Transfer Restricted Securities and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number of Transfer Restricted Securities proposed to be included exceeds the number of Transfer Restricted Securities and other securities which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the Transfer Restricted Securities requested to be included which, in the opinion of such underwriters, can be sold, by the Initiating Holders initiating the Demand Registration, (ii) second, the Transfer Restricted Securities proposed to be included in such registration by the Other Holders exercising their registration rights hereunder, pro rata based upon the total number of Transfer Restricted Securities which such Other Holders propose to include in such registration and (iii) third, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by any other holders as determined by the Company and the managing underwriters. 4.

(b) If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 4(a). In such event the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to Section 4(a) shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Transfer Restricted Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company. Registration Rights Agreement - Page 10 (c) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering, the Company will include in such registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders (including Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities) of the same securities proposed to be sold by the Company and (iii) third, the securities proposed to be included in such registration by the holders (including Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities) of substantially the same securities proposed to be sold by the Company, in each of clauses (ii) and (iii) pro rata among such holders exercising their respective piggyback registration rights thereof based upon the total number of securities which such holders beneficially own.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder of the Securities, each agent representative, employee, officer and director of any such Holder, and each person, if any, who controls such Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act (each Holder and such persons are referred to collectively as the "INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act Registration Rights Agreement - Page 12 or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse, as incurred, the Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, the indemnity agreement contained in this subsection (a) shall not inure to the benefit of any Holder from whom the person asserting any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities purchased the Securities concerned, to the extent that a prospectus relating to such Securities was required to be delivered by such Holder under the Securities Act in connection with such purchase and any such loss, claim, damage or liability of such Holder results from the fact that there was not sent or given to such person, at or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Securities to such person, a copy of the final prospectus if the Company had previously furnished copies thereof to such Holder; PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that this indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have to such Indemnified Party. The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Securities if requested by such Holders. (b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth Registration Rights Agreement - Page 13 immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action, and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. No indemnified party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the sale of the Securities, pursuant to the Registration Statement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by Registration Rights Agreement - Page 14 reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7(d), the Holders shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. (e) The agreements contained in this Section 7 shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 8. ADDITIONAL INTEREST UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. (a) Additional interest (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST") with respect to the Securities (except with respect to (iii) below, which such Additional Interest shall only apply to the Securities held by the affected Holder(s)) shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below being herein called a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"): (i) If on or prior to the 150th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission; (ii) If on or prior to the 220th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission; (iii) The Company fails with respect to a Holder of Notes that supplies the Notice and Questionnaire described in Section 1(d) above to amend or Registration Rights Agreement - Page 15 supplement the Shelf Registration Statement in the manner set forth in Section 1(d) above; (iv) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because the Company suspends the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement beyond the periods set forth in Section 2(h) above; (v) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein and the Company fails to cure the Shelf Registration Statement within fifteen (15) business days by filing a post-effective amendment or report pursuant to the Exchange Act; (vi) If on or prior to the 120th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been filed with the Commission; or (vii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been declared effective by the Commission. Each of the foregoing will constitute a Registration Default whatever the reason for any such event and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is beyond the control of the Company or pursuant to operation of law or as a result of any action or inaction by the Commission. Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes and Conversion Shares that are Transfer Restricted Shares over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST RATE"). (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 8(a)(v) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above Registration Rights Agreement - Page 16 paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 8(a) above will be payable in cash to the "RECORD HOLDER" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) on the "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATES" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) with respect to the Notes and the Conversion Shares. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by (1) multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by (x) in the case of the Notes, the "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) or (y) in the case of the Conversion Shares, the "APPLICABLE CONVERSION PRICE" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) and then (2) multiplying the product of the calculation set forth in (c)(1) above by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applied during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. (d) The following terms shall have the following meaning(s): The term "APPLICABLE CONVERSION PRICE" means the Applicable Principal Amount divided by the Conversion Price set forth in the Notes, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the Indenture, in effect as of the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 following such Registration Default in the case of the first such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, the last Conversion Price that was in effect when the Notes were last outstanding. The term "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of maturity of Notes means the initial issue price of such Note ($1,000) through the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 following such Registration Default in the case of such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next succeeding June 15 or December 15 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, such sum calculated as if such Notes were then outstanding. The term "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATE" means each June 15 or December 15 in the case of the Notes and the Conversion SHARES. The term "RECORD HOLDER" means with respect to any Damages Payment Date relating to any Note or Conversion Shares as to which any Additional Interest has accrued, the registered holder of such Note or Conversion Shares, as the case may be, fifteen (15) days prior to the next succeeding Damages Payment Date. The term "TRANSFER RESTRICTED SECURITIES" means each Security until the earliest of (i) the date on which such Security has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) to the extent such Security is held by a non-affiliate of the Company, the date on which such Security may be sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) to the extent such Security is held by an affiliate of the Company, the date on which such Security is sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (iv) the date on Registration Rights Agreement - Page 17 which such Security is saleable by the Holder thereof pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the registration rights granted hereunder shall terminate as to each Holder and with respect to such Securities upon the date that such Securities are no longer Transfer Restricted Securities. 9. SEC FILINGS. The Company shall use its best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. The Company will provide an executed counterpart of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of the Notes identified to the Company by the Purchaser upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 10. UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering ("MANAGING UNDERWRITERS") will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering and such selection shall be subject to the Company's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 11. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent or conflicts with the legal rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be limited or in any way prevented from entering into any agreement granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that do not conflict with the registration rights of the Holders hereunder.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence; PROVIDED, FURTHER, without the consent of each Holder, no amendment, modification or supplement may alter the provisions relating to the payment of Additional Interest.

Each Holder may waive compliance with respect to any obligation of the Company under this Agreement as it may apply or be enforced by such particular Holder. (c) NOTICES.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the sale of the Notes, pursuant to the Registration Statement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7(d), the Holders shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the Registration Rights Agreement - Page 14 meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. (e) The agreements contained in this Section 7 shall survive the sale of the Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 8. ADDITIONAL INTEREST UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. (a) Additional interest (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST") with respect to the Notes (except with respect to (iii) below, which such Additional Interest shall only apply to the Notes held by the affected Holder(s)) shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below being herein called a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"): (i) If on or prior to the 90th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission; (ii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission; (iii) The Company fails with respect to a Holder of Notes that supplies the Notice and Questionnaire described in Section 1(d) above to amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement in the manner set forth in Section 1(d) above; (iv) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Notes during the periods specified herein because the Company suspends the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement beyond the periods set forth in Section 2(h) above; (v) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Notes during the periods specified herein and the Company fails to cure the Shelf Registration Statement within fifteen (15) business days by filing a post-effective amendment or report pursuant to the Exchange Act; (vi) If on or prior to the 120th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been filed with the Commission; or Registration Rights Agreement - Page 15 (vii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been declared effective by the Commission. Each of the foregoing will constitute a Registration Default whatever the reason for any such event and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is beyond the control of the Company or pursuant to operation of law or as a result of any action or inaction by the Commission. Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes that are Transfer Restricted Notes over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Notes from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST RATE"). (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 8(a)(v) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 8(a) above will be payable in cash to the "RECORD HOLDER" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) on the "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATES" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) with respect to the Notes. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by (1) multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by the "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) and then (2) multiplying the product of the calculation set forth in (c)(1) above by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applied during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. (d) The following terms shall have the following meaning(s): The term "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of maturity of Notes means the initial issue price of such Note ($1,000) through the next succeeding February 1 or August 1 following such Registration Default in the case of such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next Registration Rights Agreement - Page 16 succeeding February 1 or August 1 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, such sum calculated as if such Notes were then outstanding. The term "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATE" means each February 1 or August 1 in the case of the Notes. The term "RECORD HOLDER" means with respect to any Damages Payment Date relating to any Note as to which any Additional Interest has accrued, the registered holder of such Note, fifteen (15) days prior to the next succeeding Damages Payment Date. The term "TRANSFER RESTRICTED NOTES" means each Note until the earliest of (i) the date on which such Note has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) to the extent such Note is held by a non-affiliate of the Company or ChipPAC, the date on which such Note may be sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) to the extent such Note is held by an affiliate of the Company or ChipPAC, the date on which such Note is sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (iv) the date on which such Note is saleable by the Holder thereof pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the registration rights granted hereunder shall terminate as to each Holder and with respect to such Notes upon the date that such Notes are no longer Transfer Restricted Notes. 9. SEC FILINGS. The Company shall use its best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Notes, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Notes may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Notes without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. The Company will provide an executed counterpart of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of the Notes identified to the Company by the Purchaser upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 10. UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. If any of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering ("MANAGING UNDERWRITERS") will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Notes to be included in such offering and such selection shall be subject to the Company's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted Notes on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, Registration Rights Agreement - Page 17 underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 11. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent or conflicts with the legal rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be limited or in any way prevented from entering into any agreement granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that do not conflict with the registration rights of the Holders hereunder. (b) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Notes.

Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes outstanding at the time of any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent or thereafter shall be bound by any such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent effected pursuant to this Section 11, whether or not any notice, writing or marking indicating such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent appears on the Transfer Restricted Notes or is delivered to such Holder. Each Holder may waive compliance with respect to any obligation of the Company under this Agreement as it may apply or be enforced by such particular Holder. (c) NOTICES.

(b) Any trust or other estate in which you have a substantial beneficial interest or as to which you serve as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity. (c) Any relative, your spouse or any relative of your spouse who resides with you or who is a director or officer of the Company or its subsidiaries. 3. BENEFICIAL OWNER.

Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that on the first interest payment date applicable to the Securities, which will be August 1, 2001, accrued interest on the Securities will be paid as if the Securities had been issued on February 1, 2001 (I.E., the previous interest payment date). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Securities plus 1% per annum, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 2. METHOD OF PAYMENT The Issuer will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business on the July 15 or January 15 next preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Issuer will pay principal and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Issuer will make all payments in respect of a certificated Security (including principal, premium and interest) by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that payments on a certificated Security will be made by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States of America if such Holder elects payment by wire transfer by giving written notice to the Trustee or the Paying Agent to such effect designating such account no later than 30 days immediately preceding the relevant due date for payment (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). 3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR Initially, Firstar Bank, N.A., a Delaware banking corporation (the "TRUSTEE"), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Issuer may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Issuer or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar. 4. INDENTURE The Issuer issued the Securities under an Indenture, dated as of July 29, 1999 (as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 5, 1999, the "INDENTURE"), among the Issuer, the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. ss.ss. 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the "ACT"). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. The Issuer's obligations under the Securities are guaranteed by the Company and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Securities are general unsecured obligations of the Issuer. The Issuer shall be entitled, subject to its compliance with Section 4.03 of the Indenture, to issue Additional Securities pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Indenture. The Securities issued under the indenture will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the Indenture. The Indenture limits, among other things (i) the incurrence of additional debt by the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ii) the payment of dividends on capital stock of the Company and the purchase, redemption or retirement of capital stock or subordinated indebtedness, (iii) certain transactions with affiliates, (iv) sales of assets, including capital stock of subsidiaries, and (v) certain consolidations, mergers and transfers of assets. The Indenture also prohibits certain restrictions on distributions from subsidiaries. All of these limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject to a number of important qualifications contained in the Indenture. 5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION Except as set forth in the next paragraph of this Section 5, the Securities may not be redeemed prior to August 1, 2004. On and after that date, the Issuer may redeem the Securities in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the following redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount), plus accrued interest to the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date): if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning August 1, PERIOD PERCENTAGE ------ ---------- 2004.................................................... 106.375% 2005.................................................... 104.250 2006.................................................... 102.125 2007 and thereafter..................................... 100.000% In addition, at any time prior to August 1, 2002, the Issuer may at its option on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities with the proceeds of one or more Equity Offerings, at any time or from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) of 112 3/4% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest to redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that: (1) at least 65% of such aggregate principal amount of Securities (which includes Additional Securities, if any) remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of each such redemption (other than the Securities held, directly or indirectly, by the Issuer or its Affiliates); and (2) each such redemption occurs within 60 days after the date of the related Equity Offering. The Securities may be redeemed, at the option of the Issuer, at any time as a whole but not in part, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date), in the event the Issuer has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Securities, any Additional Amounts as a result of a change in or an amendment to the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of the British Virgin Islands (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in or amendment to any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after the Issue Date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that (i) no such notice of redemption may be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which Additional Amounts are due and payable in respect of the Notes and (ii) at the time any such redemption notice is given, such obligation to pay Additional Amounts remains in effect. Prior to giving any notice of redemption pursuant to this provision, the Issuer will deliver to the applicable Trustee (i) an Officers' Certificate stating that it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to its right to so redeem have occurred and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel in the British Virgin Islands to the effect that the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of such amendment or change. In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Securities for redemption will be made by the Trustee, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem to be fair and appropriate, although no Security of U.S. $1,000 in original principal amount or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Security shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Security in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Security. 6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION Notice of optional redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed at his registered address. Securities in denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on all Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Securities (or such portions thereof) called for redemption. 7. PUT PROVISIONS Upon a Change of Control, any Holder of Securities will have the right, subject to certain conditions, to cause the Issuer to repurchase all or any part of the Securities of such Holder at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus accrued interest to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the related interest payment date) as provided in, and subject to the terms of, the Indenture. 8. SUBORDINATION The Securities are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness, as defined in the Indenture. To the extent provided in the Indenture, Senior Indebtedness must be paid before the Securities may be paid. The Issuer agrees, and each Securityholder by accepting a Security agrees, to the subordination provisions contained in the Indenture and authorizes the Trustee to give it effect and appoints the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for such purpose. 9. DENOMINATIONS; TRANSFER; EXCHANGE The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Securities selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Security to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Security not to be redeemed) or any Securities for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities to be redeemed or 15 days before an interest payment date. 10. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 11. UNCLAIMED MONEY If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Issuer at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Issuer and not to the Trustee for payment. 12. DISCHARGE AND DEFEASANCE Subject to certain conditions, the Issuer at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture if the Issuer deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to redemption or maturity, as the case may be. 13. AMENDMENT, WAIVER Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities and (ii) any default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Securityholder, the Issuer and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Securities to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to comply with Article 5 of the Indenture, or to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, or to add guarantees with respect to the Securities or to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or surrender rights and powers conferred on the Issuer, or to comply with any request of the SEC in connection with qualifying the Indenture under the Act, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder. 14. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default for 30 days in payment of interest on the Securities; (ii) default in payment of principal on the Securities at maturity, upon redemption pursuant to paragraph 5 of the Securities, upon acceleration or otherwise, or failure by the Issuer to redeem or purchase Securities when required; (iii) failure by the Issuer and the Company to comply with other agreements in the Indenture or the Securities, in certain cases subject to notice and lapse of time; (iv) certain accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Issuer if the amount accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $10.0 million; (v) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company and its Significant Subsidiaries; (vi) certain judgments or decrees for the payment of money in excess of $10.0 million; and (vii) failure of the Company Guaranty or any Subsidiary Guaranty to be in full force and effect, or the failure of the Company or a Significant Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor to honor its obligations under the Company Guaranty or its Subsidiary Guaranty, as the case may be. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders. 15. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH THE ISSUER Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Issuer or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 16. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Issuer or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 17. AUTHENTICATION This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security. 18. ABBREVIATIONS Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 19. HOLDERS' COMPLIANCE WITH REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT Each Holder of a Security, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, including, without limitation, the obligations of the Holders with respect to a registration and the indemnification of the Issuer to the extent provided therein. 20. GOVERNING LAW. THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.

The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of June 29, 1999 (the "INDENTURE"), among ChipPAC International Limited, ChipPAC Merger Corp. and Firstar Bank, N.A. as Trustee (the "TRUSTEE"), as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 5, 1999, among the Company, ChipPAC, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("CHIPPAC"), and the Trustee. As an inducement to the Purchaser to enter into the Purchase Agreement, the Company agrees with the Purchaser, for the benefit of the holder(s) of the Notes, from time to time, (including, without limitation, the Purchaser) (collectively, the "HOLDERS"), as follows: 1. RESALE SHELF REGISTRATION. (a) The Company shall, at its cost, use its commercially reasonable efforts to file as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than 90 days after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") and thereafter shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be declared effective a registration statement (the "SHELF REGISTRATION STATEMENT") on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), within 180 days of the Closing Date, relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes (as defined in Section 8(d) hereof) by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the "SHELF REGISTRATION"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no Holder (other than the Purchaser) shall be entitled to have the Notes held by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. Registration Rights Agreement - Page 2 (b) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Transfer Restricted Notes, for a period of two (2) years (or for such longer period if extended pursuant to Section 2(h) below or by the last sentence of this Section 1(b)) from the date of its effectiveness or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer Transfer Restricted Notes as defined in Section 8(d) hereof (in any such case, such period being called the "SHELF REGISTRATION PERIOD"). The Company shall be deemed not to have used its commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective during the requisite period if it voluntarily takes any action that would result in Holders of Notes covered thereby not being able to offer and sell such Transfer Restricted Notes during that period, unless (i) such action is required by applicable law or (ii) upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 2(b)(v) below, such action is taken by the Company in good faith and for valid business reasons and the Company thereafter complies with the requirements of Section 2(h) hereof. (c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, as of the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement, amendment or supplement, (i) to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and (ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (d) Each Holder agrees that if such Holder wishes to sell such Holder's Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus, it will do so in accordance with this Section 1(d). Each Holder wishing to sell Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus agrees to deliver a Notice and Questionnaire (the form of which is attached as ANNEX A hereto) to the Company. The Company will include in the Shelf Registration Statement as a selling securityholder each Holder that delivers such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in the Shelf Registration Statement any Holder which fails to provide such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date but otherwise provides such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire prior to the commencement of the Shelf Registration Period. Except as described above and below, the Company shall have no obligation to include in the Shelf Registration Statement a Holder which fails to provide the Company with such properly completed Notice and Questionnaire as of or prior to the Closing Date. From and after the date the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, the Company shall, as promptly as is practicable after the date a properly completed Notice and Questionnaire is delivered, and in any event within thirty (30) days after such date, (i) if required by law, file with the Commission a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement or prepare and, if required by applicable law, file a supplement to the related prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file Registration Rights Agreement - Page 3 any other required document so that the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire is named a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver such prospectus to purchasers of the Transfer Restricted Notes in accordance with applicable law and, if the Company shall file a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration Statement, use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practical, but in any event by the date that is thirty (30) business days after the date such post-effective amendment is required by this clause to be filed; (ii) provide such Holder copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); and (iii) notify such Holder as promptly as practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective amendment filed pursuant to Section 1(d)(i); PROVIDED, THAT if such Notice and Questionnaire is delivered during a period in which the use of such prospectus is suspended pursuant to Section 2(h) hereof, the Company shall so inform the Holder delivering such Notice and Questionnaire and shall take the actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above upon expiration of such suspension period. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to name any Holder that has not supplied the requisite information as required by and in accordance with the procedures and time periods set forth in this Section 1(d) as a selling securityholder in any Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto. 2. SHELF REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: (a) The Company shall (i) furnish to the Purchaser, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein and, the Company shall use its best efforts to reflect in each such document, when so filed with the Commission, such comments as the Purchaser reasonably may propose and (ii) include the names of the Holders, who propose to sell Transfer Restricted Notes pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling securityholders; PROVIDED, THAT the Purchaser and Holders have complied with Section 1(d). (b) The Company shall give written notice to the Purchaser and the Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration Statement (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): (i) when the Shelf Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission and when the Shelf Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; Registration Rights Agreement - Page 4 (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iv) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Notes for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and (v) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Shelf Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, which written notice need not provide any detail as to the nature of such event. (c) The Company shall make every commercially reasonable effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement. (d) The Company shall furnish to each Holder of Notes included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, at least one copy of the Shelf Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto, including financial statements and schedules, and, if the Holder so requests in writing, all exhibits thereto (including those, if any, incorporated by reference). (e) The Company shall, during the Shelf Registration Period, deliver to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Notes included within the coverage of such Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders of the Transfer Restricted Notes in connection with the offering and sale of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. (f) Prior to any public offering of the Notes pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Notes included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or qualification of the Transfer Restricted Notes for offer and sale under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Notes reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Notes covered by such Shelf Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) Registration Rights Agreement - Page 5 take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. (g) The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the Notes to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Notes to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Notes pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement. (h) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 2(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall as required hereby prepare and file a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Notes or purchasers of Notes included within the coverage of such Shelf Registration Statement, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company may delay filing and distributing any such supplement or amendment (and continue the suspension of the use of the related prospectus) if the Company determines in good faith that such supplement or amendment would, in the reasonable judgement of the Company, (i) interfere with or affect the negotiation or completion of a transaction that is being contemplated by the Company or (ii) involve initial or continuing disclosure obligations that are not in the best interests of the Company's stockholders at such time; provided, further, that neither such delay nor such suspension shall extend for a period of more than 90 consecutive days or an aggregate of 180 days in any twelve-month period.

The Company shall also indemnify underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act to the same extent as provided above with respect to the indemnification of the Holders of the Notes if requested by such Holders. (b) Each Holder, severally and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, directors and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities or any actions in respect thereof, to which the Company or any such controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus relating to a Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for inclusion therein; and, subject to the limitation set forth immediately preceding this clause, shall reimburse, as incurred, the Company for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action in respect thereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have to the Company or any of its controlling persons. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including a governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, Registration Rights Agreement - Page 13 be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 7 for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs of investigation, subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof.

No indemnified party shall effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action without the prior written consent of the indemnifying party, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsections (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other from the sale of the Notes, pursuant to the Registration Statement, or (ii) if the allocation provided by the foregoing clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or such Holder or such other indemnified party, as the case may be, on the other, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7(d), the Holders shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls such indemnified party within the Registration Rights Agreement - Page 14 meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such indemnified party and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. (e) The agreements contained in this Section 7 shall survive the sale of the Notes pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party. 8. ADDITIONAL INTEREST UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. (a) Additional interest (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST") with respect to the Notes (except with respect to (iii) below, which such Additional Interest shall only apply to the Notes held by the affected Holder(s)) shall be assessed as follows if any of the following events occur (each such event in clauses (i) through (v) below being herein called a "REGISTRATION DEFAULT"): (i) If on or prior to the 90th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been filed with the Commission; (ii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), the Shelf Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission; (iii) The Company fails with respect to a Holder of Notes that supplies the Notice and Questionnaire described in Section 1(d) above to amend or supplement the Shelf Registration Statement in the manner set forth in Section 1(d) above; (iv) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Notes during the periods specified herein because the Company suspends the effectiveness of such Shelf Registration Statement beyond the periods set forth in Section 2(h) above; (v) If after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective, such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Notes during the periods specified herein and the Company fails to cure the Shelf Registration Statement within fifteen (15) business days by filing a post-effective amendment or report pursuant to the Exchange Act; (vi) If on or prior to the 120th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been filed with the Commission; or Registration Rights Agreement - Page 15 (vii) If on or prior to the 180th day after the Demand Initiation Date, a registration statement relating to the applicable Demand Registration has not been declared effective by the Commission. Each of the foregoing will constitute a Registration Default whatever the reason for any such event and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is beyond the control of the Company or pursuant to operation of law or as a result of any action or inaction by the Commission. Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes that are Transfer Restricted Notes over and above the interest set forth in the title of the Notes from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.50% per annum (the "ADDITIONAL INTEREST RATE"). (b) A Registration Default referred to in Section 8(a)(v) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in the case of clause (y), the Company is proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a continuous period in excess of 30 days, Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. (c) Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant to Section 8(a) above will be payable in cash to the "RECORD HOLDER" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) on the "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATES" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) with respect to the Notes. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by (1) multiplying the applicable Additional Interest Rate by the "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" (as defined in Section 8(d) below) and then (2) multiplying the product of the calculation set forth in (c)(1) above by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest Rate was applied during such period (determined on the basis of a 360 day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. (d) The following terms shall have the following meaning(s): The term "APPLICABLE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT" with respect to each $1,000 principal amount of maturity of Notes means the initial issue price of such Note ($1,000) through the next succeeding February 1 or August 1 following such Registration Default in the case of such payment of Additional Interest with respect to a Registration Default (and thereafter at the next Registration Rights Agreement - Page 16 succeeding February 1 or August 1 until the cure of such Registration Default) or, if no Notes are then outstanding, such sum calculated as if such Notes were then outstanding. The term "DAMAGES PAYMENT DATE" means each February 1 or August 1 in the case of the Notes. The term "RECORD HOLDER" means with respect to any Damages Payment Date relating to any Note as to which any Additional Interest has accrued, the registered holder of such Note, fifteen (15) days prior to the next succeeding Damages Payment Date. The term "TRANSFER RESTRICTED NOTES" means each Note until the earliest of (i) the date on which such Note has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement, (ii) to the extent such Note is held by a non-affiliate of the Company or ChipPAC, the date on which such Note may be sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, (iii) to the extent such Note is held by an affiliate of the Company or ChipPAC, the date on which such Note is sold by the Holder thereof to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or (iv) the date on which such Note is saleable by the Holder thereof pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the registration rights granted hereunder shall terminate as to each Holder and with respect to such Notes upon the date that such Notes are no longer Transfer Restricted Notes. 9. SEC FILINGS. The Company shall use its best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Holder of Notes, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Notes may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Notes without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. The Company will provide an executed counterpart of this Agreement to prospective purchasers of the Notes identified to the Company by the Purchaser upon request. Upon the request of any Holder of Notes, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 9 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 10. UNDERWRITTEN REGISTRATIONS. If any of the Transfer Restricted Notes covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and manager or managers that will administer the offering ("MANAGING UNDERWRITERS") will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Notes to be included in such offering and such selection shall be subject to the Company's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person's Transfer Restricted Notes on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, Registration Rights Agreement - Page 17 underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 11. MISCELLANEOUS. (a) NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. The Company will not on or after the date of this Agreement enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent or conflicts with the legal rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement. The rights granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be limited or in any way prevented from entering into any agreement granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that do not conflict with the registration rights of the Holders hereunder. (b) AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given, unless the Company has obtained the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the then outstanding Notes constituting Transfer Restricted Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to depart from the provisions hereof with respect to a matter that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes whose securities are being sold pursuant to a Shelf Registration Statement and that does not directly or indirectly affect the rights of other Holders of Transfer Restricted Notes may be given by Holders of at least a majority of the Transfer Restricted Notes being sold by such Holders pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the provisions of this sentence may not be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence; PROVIDED, FURTHER, without the consent of each Holder, no amendment, modification or supplement may alter the provisions relating to the payment of Additional Interest.

A-5 APPENDIX A 1. ARRANGEMENT. Any plan, contract, arrangement or understanding, whether or not set forth in a formal document. 2. ASSOCIATE. The term "associate" means: (a) Any corporation or organization, except the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries, of which you are an executive officer or partner or of which you, together with other officers or directors of the Company, are, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of 10% or more of any class of equity securities. (b) Any trust or other estate in which you have a substantial beneficial interest or as to which you serve as trustee or in a similar fiduciary capacity. (c) Any relative, your spouse or any relative of your spouse who resides with you or who is a director or officer of the Company or its subsidiaries. 3. BENEFICIAL OWNER. A "beneficial owner" of securities is any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise has or shares: (a) Voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of, such security; and/or, (b) Investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of, such security. Furthermore, a "beneficial owner" of a security includes any person who has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within sixty (60) days. The right to acquire beneficial ownership could (but need not necessarily) be through (i) the exercise of any option, warrant or right, (ii) the conversion of a security, (iii) a power to revoke or automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account, or similar arrangement, or (iv) otherwise. A "beneficial owner" also includes any person who, directly or indirectly, creates or uses a trust, proxy, power of attorney, pooling arrangement or any other contract, arrangement or device with the purpose or effect of divesting such person of beneficial ownership of a security or preventing the vesting of such beneficial ownership as part of a plan to evade the reporting requirements of any federal or state securities act. Securities owned beneficially would include not only securities held by you for your own benefit, whether in bearer form or registered in your own name or otherwise, but would also include securities held by others for your benefit or securities from which you obtain benefits substantially equivalent to those of ownership (regardless of whether or how they are registered), such as, for example, securities held for you by banks or other custodians, brokers (whether in your name, their name or in "street name"), executors, administrators, or trustees (including trusts in which you have only a remainder interest) and securities held for your account by pledgees, and securities owned by a partnership in which you are a member, and securities owned by any corporation in which you and your associates own 10% or more of the stock. A person is deemed to be the beneficial owner of securities beneficially owned by his spouse, his minor children, or any relative sharing his home. "Indirectly," when used to refer to beneficial ownership of securities, means ownership through another such as a controlled corporation, member of the family, estate, trust, partnership or other entity.
