• each fixed settlement rate by

• a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and the denominator will be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting the dividend or other distribution.

If any dividend or distribution in this paragraph (1) is declared but not so paid or made, the new fixed settlement rates shall be readjusted, on the date that the Company’s board of directors determines not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, to the fixed settlement rates that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(2) Stock Purchase Rights . If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s common stock rights, options, warrants or other securities (other than pursuant to a dividend reinvestment, share purchase or similar plan) entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s common stock for a period expiring within 45 days from the date of issuance of such rights, options, warrants or other securities at a price per share of the Company’s common stock less than the current market price (as defined below) calculated as of the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options, warrants or other securities, each fixed settlement rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination will be increased by dividing:

• each fixed settlement rate by

• a fraction, the numerator of which will be the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of the Company’s common stock which the aggregate consideration expected to be received by the Company upon the exercise of such rights, options, warrants or other securities would purchase at such current market price and the denominator of which will be the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of the Company’s common stock so offered for subscription or purchase.
