PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

Section 4.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees
that it shall duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of,
interest and premium on each of the Notes to the applicable Holder of the Notes
at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein and in
the Notes. Each Note will accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to 8.2% (the
“Stated Interest”), plus any Special Interest, Additional Interest or Default
Interest that may accrue pursuant to Section 9.02, Section 11.05 or this
Section 4.01, respectively. Stated Interest on each Note will (a) accrue from,
and including, the most recent date to which Stated Interest has been paid or
duly provided for (or, if no Stated Interest has theretofore been paid or duly
provided for, the date set forth in the certificate representing such Note as
the date from, and including, which Stated Interest will begin to accrue in such
circumstance) to, but excluding, the date of payment of such Stated Interest;
and (b) be, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payable quarterly in
arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on the first Interest Payment
Date set forth in the certificate representing such Note, to the Holder of such
Note as of the Close of Business on the immediately preceding Regular Record
Date. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
comprised of twelve 30-day months. If the Maturity Date of a Note is not an
Interest Payment Date, then the accrued and unpaid interest on such Note to, but
excluding, the Maturity Date will be paid, on the Maturity Date, to the Person
to whom the Principal Amount and Repayment Premium of such Note is paid. Special
Interest, Additional Interest and Default Interest, if any, will accrue and be
paid in the manner set forth in Section 9.02, Section 11.05 and this
Section 4.01, respectively.

To the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable,
upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Default or Event of
Default under Section 9.01(a) (a “Payment Default”), any principal of, or
premium or installment of interest on, the Notes which is overdue shall bear
interest at the rate of, in each case, five percent (5.0%) per annum (“Default
Interest”) in excess of the rate of interest then borne by the Notes from the
date of such Payment Default until cured or waived, and such Default Interest
shall be payable in cash on each succeeding Interest Payment Date.

Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company shall maintain an
office or agency in the United States, where the Notes may be surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or for
conversion and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of
the Notes and this Agreement may be served. The initial location of such office
and agency is the Company’s address set forth in Section 14.01, and the Company
shall give prompt written notice to each Holder of any change in the location of
such office or agency.

The Company may also from time to time designate co-registrars and one or more
offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or
all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations. The
Company will give prompt written notice of any such designation or rescission
and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Section 4.03 Reports. The Company shall furnish to the Holders, on or before the
fifth (5th) day after the date that the Company is required to file the same
(after giving effect to all applicable grace periods under the Exchange Act),
all reports that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to
Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that the Company
need not send to any Holder any material for

 

-16-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

which the Company has received, or is seeking in good faith and has not been
denied, confidential treatment by the Commission. Any report that the Company
files with the Commission through the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto)
will be deemed to be sent to the Holders at the time such report is so filed.

Section 4.04 Offer to Repurchase upon Fundamental Change.

(a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, each
Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to
repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof that is
equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, on the date
(the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not
less than twenty (20) Business Days or more than thirty (30) Business Days
following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a repurchase
price equal to one hundred and nine percent (109%) of the Principal Amount
thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding,
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date for any Note to be so
repurchased falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest
Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the
Company shall instead pay, on such Interest Payment Date, pay to the Holder of
record of such Note as of the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date, the
amount of interest that would have accrued on such Note to such Interest Payment
Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of such Note shall be equal to
one hundred and nine percent (109%) of the Principal Amount of such Notes.

(b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 4.04 shall be made, at the option of
the Holder thereof. To exercise such right, such Holder must deliver, prior to
the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Date, to the Company:

be $1,000 or an integral multiple in excess thereof; and

(iii) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the
applicable provisions of the Notes and this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the
Company the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this
Section 4.04 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such
Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice by at any time prior to the close of
business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Company in
accordance with Section 4.04(e).

(c) On or before the 20th Business Day after the occurrence of a Fundamental
Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders of Notes a written notice (the
“Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change
and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result
thereof. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify:

(i) the events causing the Fundamental Change;

(ii) the date of the Fundamental Change;

Notice has been delivered by a Holder may be converted only if the Holder
withdraws the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement; and

(viii) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to
repurchase their Notes.

No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein
shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the
proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.04.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on
any date at the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal
amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been
rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration
resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes).

(e) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in
part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Company at any
time prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day immediately preceding
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying:

(i) the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of
withdrawal is being submitted, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof;

(ii) the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of
withdrawal is being submitted; and

(iii) the principal amount, if any, of such Note that remains subject to the
original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in
principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(f) The Company shall not be required to repurchase or make an offer to
repurchase the Notes upon a Fundamental Change if a third party makes such an
offer in the same manner, at the same time and otherwise in compliance with the
requirements made for an offer made by the Company as set forth in this
Section 4.04 and such third party purchases all Notes properly surrendered and
not validly withdrawn under its offer in the same manner, at the same time and
otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company
as set forth in this Section 4.04.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.04, the Company
will not be required to send a Fundamental Change Company Notice, or offer to
repurchase or repurchase any Notes pursuant to this Section 4.04, in connection
with a Fundamental Change occurring pursuant to clause (b)(i) or (b)(ii) of the
definition thereof, if (i) such Fundamental Change constitutes a Common Stock
Change Event whose Reference Property consists solely of cash in U.S. dollars;
(ii) immediately after such Fundamental Change, the Notes become convertible,
pursuant to Section 7.05 and, if applicable, Section 7.07, into solely cash in
U.S. dollars in an amount per Note that equals or exceeds the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price per Note (calculated assuming that the same includes accrued
interest to, but excluding, the latest possible Fundamental Change Repurchase
Date for such Fundamental Change); and (iii) the Company notifies Holders of the
occurrence of such Fundamental Change and that, pursuant to this
Section 4.04(g), the Company is not required to offer to repurchase the Notes in
connection therewith.

be done and will cause its Subsidiaries to do all things necessary to preserve
and keep in full force and effect their respective existence and material rights
(charter and statutory); provided, however, that the Company need not preserve
or keep in full force and effect any such existence or right if the Board of
Directors determines that (a) the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in
the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole; and (b) the loss thereof is not, individually or in the aggregate,
materially adverse to the Holders.

Section 4.06 Limitation on Additional Indebtedness. Neither the Company nor any
of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or
suffer to exist (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness for borrowed money that
is (a) unsecured Indebtedness, (b) Indebtedness, or preferred stock, that is
convertible into Common Stock, if, in the case of clause (a) or (b) above, such
Indebtedness or securities have a final maturity date, principal amortization or
mandatory redemption date (other than pursuant to which such Indebtedness or
securities are paid solely by, or repurchased, redeemed, exchanged or otherwise
retired solely for, Equity Interests that do not constitute Disqualified Capital
Stock) that is earlier than twelve (12) months after the Maturity Date, or
(c) secured Indebtedness that is senior in right of payment to the Notes unless,
in the case of this clause (c), (i) such Indebtedness is incurred after the
first bona fide commercial sale of at least one of the Company’s products and
(ii) the outstanding aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness shall not
at any time exceed one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000); provided,
however, that this Section 4.06 will not prohibit the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries from incurring any of the following:

date of this Agreement;

(ii) Indebtedness under the Initial Notes or under this Agreement with respect
to the Initial Notes;

Indebtedness between or among the Company and any of its Subsidiaries; provided,
however, that:

(A) if the Company or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and the
payee is not the Company or a Guarantor, such Indebtedness must be unsecured and
expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all obligations
then due with respect to the Notes, in the case of the Company, or the
applicable Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and

(B) (x) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in
any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company or a
Subsidiary of the Company and (y) any sale or other transfer of any such
Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company or a Subsidiary of the
Company, will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such
Indebtedness by the Company or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not
permitted by this clause (iii);

(iv) the incurrence by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used
to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness
(other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Agreement to
be incurred under clauses (i), (ii), (iv) and (v) of this Section 4.06; and

(v) any (a) unsecured Indebtedness or (b) secured Indebtedness incurred to
finance the acquisition, construction or improvement of any fixed or capital
asset constituting purchase money Indebtedness provided that such Indebtedness
is incurred within ninety (90) days after such acquisition or the completion of
such construction or improvement, not to exceed, in the case of both (a) and
(b) together, in the aggregate at any time fifteen million dollars
($15,000,000).

each of the Holders of each Default or Event of Default.

Section 4.09 Payment of Taxes. Each Credit Party shall pay and discharge
promptly when due all Taxes, imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in
respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default
(including in its capacity of a withholding agent); provided that such payment
and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such Tax, so long as
(i) the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by
appropriate proceedings timely instituted and diligently conducted and the
applicable Credit Party shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves or
other appropriate provisions with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and
such contest operates to suspend collection of the contested Taxes or (ii) the
failure to pay could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the
aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

including, the Trading Day immediately before the Redemption Notice Date for
such Redemption.

Section 5.03 Redemption Prohibited in Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Notes may be redeemed by the Company pursuant to this Article 5 on

Redemption is an amount in cash equal to one hundred and nine percent (109%) of
the Principal Amount of such Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Note
to, but excluding, the Redemption Date for such Redemption; provided, however,
that if such Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or before the

Business on such Regular Record Date will be entitled, notwithstanding such
Redemption, to receive, on such Interest Payment Date, the unpaid interest that

Redemption Price, and upon surrender of any Note for Redemption in accordance
with such Redemption Notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the
Redemption Price.

Section 5.07 AHYDO Saver. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if the Note
would otherwise constitute an “applicable high-yield discount obligation” within
the meaning of Section 163(i) of the Internal Revenue Code or any successor
provisions, on each Interest Payment Date ending on or after the date that is
five years after the Closing Date, the Company shall make a payment in an amount

Repayment Premium required to be paid by the Company and shall not reduce the
Principal Amount.

Section 7.01 Right to Convert. Subject to and upon compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s
option, at any time prior to the Close of Business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert the Principal Amount of such
Holder’s Notes, or any portion of such Principal Amount that is $1,000 and any
integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, into shares of Common Stock (and,
if applicable, cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary:

(a) Notes may be surrendered for conversion only after the Open of Business and
before the Close of Business on a day that is a Business Day;

(b) in no event may any Note be converted after the Close of Business on the
Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date;

(c) if the Company calls any Note for Redemption pursuant to Article 5, then the
Holder of such Note may not convert such Note after the Close of Business on the
Business Day immediately before the applicable Redemption Date, except to the
extent the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price for such Note in accordance
with this Indenture;

(d) if a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice is validly delivered pursuant to

except to the extent (i) such Note is not subject to such notice; (ii) such
notice is withdrawn in accordance with Section 4.04(e); or (iii) the Company

with this Agreement; and

(e) in no event will any Note be converted unless and until all applicable
waiting periods (and any extension thereof) prescribed by the HSR Act, if any,
have expired or been terminated.

Section 7.02 Conversion Procedure.

(a) In order to exercise the conversion right with respect to any Notes, the
Holder of any such Notes to be converted, in whole or in part, shall:

(i) complete and manually sign the conversion notice provided on the back of the
Note (or a facsimile of such conversion notice) and deliver the same to the
Company;

(ii) surrender the Note to the Company;

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

(iv) if required pursuant to Section 7.08, pay any transfer taxes or duties; and

(v) if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest
Payment Date as required by Section 7.03(d).

The date on which the Holder satisfies all of the applicable requirements set
forth above is the “Conversion Date.”

(b) In case any Note having a Principal Amount greater than $1,000 shall be
surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and deliver to the
Holder of such Note, without charge to such Holder, new Notes in authorized
denominations in an aggregate Principal Amount equal to the unconverted portion
of such Note.

Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any such Notes (or
portion thereof) on the Conversion Date for such conversion, and the Person in
whose name the shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion
shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares as of the
Close of Business on such the Conversion Date for such conversion.

 

-22-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c) Each share of Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Notes that are
Restricted Notes shall be subject to the Restricted Stock Legend as set forth in
Section 3.06.

Section 7.03 Settlement upon Conversion Into Common Stock.

(a) The type and amount of consideration due in respect of each $1,000 principal
amount of a Note to be converted will be a number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date for such
conversion; provided, however, that, subject to Section 7.03(e), in lieu of
issuing or delivering any fraction of any share of Common Stock, the Company
will instead either, at the Company’s option, (I) pay cash in an amount equal to
the product of (x) such fraction and (y) the Last Reported Sale Price per share
of Common Stock on such Conversion Date; or (II) deliver an additional whole
share of Common Stock.

(b) Subject to Section 7.05, the Company will deliver the consideration due upon
conversion of any Note on or before the third (3rd) Business Day after the
Conversion Date for such conversion.

(c) Subject to Section 7.03(d), upon conversion, Holders shall not receive any
separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest.

(d) If the Conversion Date for any Note is after a Regular Record Date and
before the next Interest Payment Date, then (i) the Holder(s) of such Note at
the Close of Business on such Regular Record Date will receive, on such Interest
Payment Date, the interest that would have accrued on such Note to, and been
payable on, such Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion; and
(ii) such Note, when surrendered for conversion, must be accompanied by funds
equal to the amount of such interest; provided, however, that no such payment
need be made (x) for conversions whose Conversion Date occurs following the
Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, (y) for conversions
whose Conversion Date occurs following a Regular Record Date immediately
preceding a Redemption Date, or (z) to the extent of any overdue interest, if
any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note.

(e) If multiple Notes shall be surrendered for conversion with the same
Conversion Date by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be
issuable upon such conversion (and the number of fractional shares, if any, for
which cash shall be delivered) shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate
Principal Amount of such Notes to be so converted.

(f) By delivery to the Holder of the consideration due upon conversion of any
Note, the Company will be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the
Principal Amount of the Notes and all accrued and unpaid interest to, but
excluding, the Conversion Date. Upon conversion of the Notes, all accrued and
unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Conversion Date will be deemed to be paid
in full rather than canceled, extinguished or forfeited, subject to
Section 7.03(d).

(g) Shares of Common Stock issued upon a conversion shall be delivered pursuant
to a book entry with the transfer agent for the Common Stock, and in no event
shall paper certificates be issued or delivered, except with the consent of the
Holder receiving the same.

Section 7.04 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be
adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs
as described below, except that the Company will not make any adjustment to the
Conversion Rate if Holders of Notes participate, at the same time and on the
same terms as holders of shares of Common Stock, solely as a result of holding
the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 7.04, without
having to convert their Notes, as if each Holder held, on the applicable Record
Date or effective date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
Conversion Rate in effect on such Record Date or effective date, multiplied by
the Principal Amount of Notes held by such Holder, divided by $1,000.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) If the Company issues solely shares of Common Stock as a dividend or
distribution on all or substantially all of the shares of the Common Stock, or
the Company effects a share split or share combination applicable to all shares
of the Common Stock (in each case excluding an issuance solely pursuant to a
Common Stock Change Event, as to which the provisions set forth in Section 7.05
will apply), the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following
formula:

 

  

CR1 = CR0 ×

 

OS1

        OS0   

where,

 

CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of
Business on the Record Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately
prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such share split or share
combination, as applicable; CR1   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately
after the Close of Business on such Record Date or effective date, as
applicable; OS0   =    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the Close of Business on such Record Date or effective
date, as applicable; and OS1   =    the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution,
share split or share combination.

If any dividend, distribution, share split or share combination of the type
described in this Section 7.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the
Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the
Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution or to
effect such share split or share combination, to the Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share split or share
combination had not been declared or announced.

(b) If the Company distributes, to all or substantially all holders of shares of
Common Stock, any rights, options or warrants entitling such holders for a
period of not more than sixty (60) calendar days after the Record Date of such
distribution to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, at a price per
share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common
Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the
Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such distribution,
the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

 

  CR1 = CR0 ×  

OS + X

       OS + Y   

where,

 

CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of
Business on the Record Date for such distribution; CR1   =    the Conversion
Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on such Record Date; OS  
=    the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the
Close of Business on such Record Date; X   =    the total number of shares of
Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and Y   =   
the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to
exercise such rights, options or warrants divided by the average of the Last
Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive
Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding
such date of announcement.

 

-24-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The foregoing increase in the Conversion Rate shall be successively made
whenever any such rights, options or warrants are distributed. If such rights,
options or warrants are not so distributed, the Conversion Rate will be
immediately readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if
such Record Date for such distribution had not been fixed. In addition, to the
extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of
such rights, options or warrants (including as a result of such rights, options
or warrants not being exercised), the Conversion Rate shall be immediately
readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase
to the Conversion Rate made for the distribution of such rights, options or
warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of
Common Stock actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, option or
warrants.

In determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of
shares of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at
less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices, and in determining the
aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, there
shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such
rights, options or warrants and any amount payable upon exercise or conversion
thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined
by the Board of Directors.

(c)

(i) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its
Indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or
warrants to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock or other securities (the
“Distributed Property”), to all or substantially all holders of shares of Common
Stock, excluding:

(A) dividends, distributions, rights, options or warrants for which an
adjustment is required (or would be required without regard to Section 7.04(h))
pursuant to Section 7.04(a) or Section 7.04(b);

(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash for which an adjustment
is required (or would be required without regard to Section 7.04(h)) pursuant to
Section 7.04(d);

(C) rights issued or otherwise distributed pursuant to a stockholder rights
plan, except to the extent provided in Section 7.10;

(D) Spin-Offs for which an adjustment is required (or would be required without
regard to Section 7.04(h)) pursuant to Section 7.04(c)(ii); and

(E) a distribution solely pursuant to a Common Stock Change Event, as to which
the provisions set forth in Section 7.05 will apply,

then the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

 

   CR1 = CR0 ×   

SP

         SP – FMV   

 

     where, CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the
Close of Business on the Record Date for such distribution; CR1   =    the
Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on such Record
Date;

 

-25-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SP   =    the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock
over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days ending on, and including, the Trading
Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and FMV  
=    the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors), as of such
Record Date, of such Distributed Property distributed per share of Common Stock
pursuant to such distribution.

No adjustment pursuant to the above formula shall result in a decrease of the
Conversion Rate. If such distribution is not so paid or made, or such rights,
options or warrants are not exercised before their expiration (including as a
result of being redeemed or terminated), the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted
to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment been
made on the basis of only the distribution, if any, actually made or paid or on
the basis of the distribution of only such rights, options or warrants, if any,
that were actually exercised, if at all. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV”
(as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP” (as defined above), then, in
lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, in respect of each
$1,000 principal amount of Notes that it held on the Record Date for such
distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common
Stock receive the Distributed Property, without having to convert its Notes, the
amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such
Holder owned, on such Record Date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
the Conversion Rate in effect on such Record Date. If the Board of Directors
determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this
Section 7.04(c)(i) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for
any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the
same period used in computing the average Last Reported Sale Prices per share of
Common Stock referred to above.

(ii) With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.04(c) where there
has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on all or substantially
all shares of the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or
series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary, or other
business unit or Affiliate, of the Company, where such Capital Stock or similar
equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or quoted upon
consummation of the transaction) on a U.S. or non-U.S. securities exchange (as
determined by the Company) (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate will be increased
based on the following formula:

 

  CR1 = CR0 ×   

FMV + MP

        MP   

 

     where, CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the
Close of Business on the Record Date for such Spin-Off; CR1   =    the
Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on such Record
Date; FMV   =    the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of
Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed per share of Common Stock
in such Spin-Off (determined for purposes of the definition of “Last Reported
Sale Price” as if references therein to Common Stock were instead references to
such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the ten (10) consecutive
Trading Days beginning on, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off
(the “Spin-Off Valuation Period”); and MP   =    the average of the Last
Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock over the Spin-Off Valuation
Period.

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 7.04(d) will be
calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the Spin-Off
Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately after the Close of
Business on the Record Date for the Spin-Off, with retroactive effect. If a Note
is converted and the

 

-26-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Conversion Date occurs during the Spin-Off Valuation Period, then,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company will, if necessary, delay
the settlement of such conversion until the third (3rd) Business Day after the
last day of the Spin-Off Valuation Period. To the extent any dividend or
distribution that constitutes a Spin-Off is declared but not paid or made, the
Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted to the Conversion Rate that
would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the
dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid.

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

 

   CR1 = CR0 ×  

SP

        SP – C   

where,

 

CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of
Business on the Record Date for such dividend or distribution; CR1   =    the
Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on such Record
Date; SP   =    the Last Reported Sale Price per share of Common Stock on the
Trading Day immediately prior to such Ex-Dividend Date; and C   =    the amount
in cash per share of Common Stock in such dividend or distribution.

No adjustment pursuant to the above formula shall result in a decrease of the
Conversion Rate. To the extent such dividend or distribution is declared but not
made or paid, the Conversion Rate will be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that
would then be in effect had the adjustment been made on the basis of only the
dividend or distribution, if any, actually made or paid. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP” (as
defined above), then, in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall
receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes that it held on the Record
Date for such distribution, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders
of shares of the Common Stock, without having to convert its Notes, the amount
of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned, on such
Record Date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on
such Record Date.

(e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a
tender offer or exchange offer for shares of Common Stock, to the extent that
the value (determined as of the Expiration Time by the Board of Directors) of
the cash and any other consideration paid per share of Common Stock in such
tender or exchange offer exceeds the Last Reported Sale Prices per share of
Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately after the last date (the “Expiration
Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or
exchange offer (as it may be amended), then the Conversion Rate will be
increased based on the following formula:

 

   CR1 = CR0 ×   

AC + (SP × OS1)

         OS0 × SP   

where,

 

CR0   =    the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the time (the
“Expiration Time”) such tender or exchange offer expires; CR1   =    the
Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Expiration Time;

 

-27-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AC   =    the aggregate value (determined as of the Expiration Time by the Board
of Directors) of all cash and other consideration paid for shares of Common
Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer; OS0   =    the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Expiration Time
(prior to giving effect to the purchase of shares of Common Stock accepted for
purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); OS1   =    the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after
giving effect to the purchase of shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or
exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and SP   =    the average of the
Last Reported Sale Prices per share of Common Stock over the ten (10)
consecutive Trading Day period (the “Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period”)
beginning on, and including, on the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration
Date.

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 7.04(e) will be
calculated as of the Close of Business on the last Trading Day of the
Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period but will be given effect immediately
after the Expiration Time, with retroactive effect. If a Note is converted and
the Conversion Date occurs during the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period,
then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company will, if necessary,
delay the settlement of such conversion until the third (3rd) Business Day after
the last day of the Tender/Exchange Offer Valuation Period. No adjustment
pursuant to the above formula shall result in a decrease of the Conversion Rate.

If the Company is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any
such tender or exchange offer, but the Company is ultimately prevented by
applicable law from effecting all or any portion of such purchases or all such
purchases are rescinded, the Conversion Rate shall immediately be readjusted to
the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange
offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that
had been effected.

(f) In addition to those Conversion Rate adjustments required by Sections
7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.04(c), 7.04(d) and 7.04(e), and to the extent permitted by
applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of The NASDAQ Global Market
(including Market Rule 5635) and, if applicable, any securities exchange on
which the Company’s securities are then listed, the Company from time to time
may (but is not required to) (i) increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for
a period of at least twenty (20) Business Days if the Board of Directors
determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest and
(ii) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders
of shares of Common Stock or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock in
connection with any dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or
rights to acquire shares of Common Stock) or similar event.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Conversion Rate will not be
adjusted:

(i) the sale of shares of Common Stock for a purchase price that is less than
the market price per share of Common Stock or less than the Conversion Price;

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

(iii) upon the entry into any share repurchase program by the Company, including
any accelerated share repurchase transaction or other share repurchase
transaction effected through the use of derivatives;

 

-28-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

(v) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option,
warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not
described in clause (iv) above and outstanding as of the date the Notes were
first issued, except as set forth in Section 7.10;

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

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

(h) Adjustments to the Conversion Rate under this Article 7 shall be calculated
to the nearest cent or to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share
of Common Stock. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 7.04, no
adjustment shall be made to the Conversion Rate unless such adjustment would
require a change of at least one percent (1%) in the Conversion Rate, and any
adjustment that would otherwise be required to be made shall be carried forward
and taken into account in any future adjustment; provided, however, that upon
any conversion of the Notes, the Company shall give effect to all adjustments
that Company otherwise has deferred pursuant to this sentence, and those
adjustments will no longer be carried forward and taken into account in any
future adjustment.

(i) After any adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant hereto, the Company
shall prepare and send to Holders, within 20 days of the effective date of such
adjustment, a notice of such adjustment setting forth the adjusted Conversion
Rate and the date on which each adjustment became effective. Failure to deliver
such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

(j) For purposes of this Section 7.04, the number of shares of Common Stock at
any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the
Company, so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any
distribution on such shares, but shall include shares issuable in respect of
scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock.

Section 7.05 Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger, Sale, Etc. In
the case of (i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common
Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination, any stock
dividends or any change in par value or from a par value to no par value or from
no par value to a par value), (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination
involving the Company, (iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party
of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (iv) any statutory share exchange, in each
case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or
exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, stock, other securities
or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any
such event, a “Common Stock Change Event,” and such stock, securities, property
or assets, the “Reference Property,” and the amount and kind of Reference
Property that a holder of one (1) share of Common Stock would be entitled to
receive on account of such Common Stock Change Event (without giving effect to
any arrangement not to issue fractional shares of securities or other property),
a “Reference Property Unit”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary,

(a) at the effective time of such Common Stock Change Event, (1) the
consideration due upon conversion of any Note will be determined in the same
manner as if each reference to any number of shares of Common Stock in this
Article 7 (or in any related definitions) were instead a reference to the same
number of Reference Property Units; and for (2) purposes of the definition of
“Fundamental Change” and “Make-Whole Fundamental Change,” the term “Common
Stock” will be deemed to mean the Common Equity, if any, forming part of such
Reference Property;

(b) if such Reference Property Unit consists entirely of cash, then, in respect
of all conversions whose Conversion Date occurs on or after the effective date
of such Common Stock Change Event, the Company will pay the cash due upon such
conversions no later than the third (3rd) Business Day after the relevant
Conversion Date;

 

-29-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c) for these purposes, the Last Reported Sale Price of any Reference Property
Unit or portion thereof that does not consist of a class of securities will be
the fair value of such Reference Property Unit or portion thereof, as
applicable, determined in good faith by the Company (or, in the case of cash
denominated in U.S. dollars, the face amount thereof);

(d) the Company shall promptly execute, and the Holders shall counter-sign, a
supplemental agreement pursuant to Article 13 that (1) will provide for
subsequent conversions of Notes in the manner set forth in this Section 7.05;
(2) will provide for subsequent adjustments to the Conversion Rate pursuant to
Section 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.04(c), 7.04(d), 7.04(e) and 7.07 in a manner
consistent with this Section 7.05; and (3) may contain such other provisions as
(i) the Company in good faith determines are appropriate to preserve the
economic interests of the Holders and to give effect to the provisions of this
Section 7.05 and (ii) to which Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes then outstanding reasonably agree.

If such Common Stock Change Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into,
or exchanged for, or represent solely the right to receive, more than a single
type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder
election), the composition of the Reference Property Unit will be deemed to be
the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the
holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election. The Company
shall notify Holders of the Notes of such weighted average as soon as
practicable after such determination is made.

The Company shall not become a party to any Common Stock Change Event unless its
terms are consistent with this Section 7.05. None of the foregoing provisions
shall affect the right of a Holder of Notes to convert its Notes as set forth in
Section 7.01 and Section 7.02 prior to the effective date of such Common Stock
Change Event.

Section 7.06 Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Agreement
requires a calculation of the Last Reported Sale Prices, or a function thereof,
over a span of multiple days, the Company may make adjustments determined by the
Company or its agents to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that
becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate
where the Ex-Dividend Date, Record Date, effective date or Expiration Date, as
the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during the period during which
such calculations are based.

Section 7.07 Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered
in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes.

(a) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective prior to the
Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert any of its Notes in connection with
such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under the circumstances
described below, increase the Conversion Rate for such Notes by a number of
additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as set forth below.
A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection
with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the Conversion Date for such
conversion occurs on or after the effective date of the Make-Whole Fundamental
Change and on or before the Business Day immediately prior to the related
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, if such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is
not a Fundamental Change, on or before the 35th Trading Day immediately
following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such
period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”). Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary, in no event will the Conversion Rate applicable to the conversion
of any Note in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change be increased
pursuant to this Section 7.07 if such Make-Whole Fundamental Change constitutes
a Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of such term where
the “person” or “group” referred to in such clause is, or includes, the Holder
or beneficial owner of such Note or any Affiliate thereof.

(b) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition
of Fundamental Change, constitutes a Common Stock Change Event for which the
Reference Property is composed entirely of cash, then, for any conversion of
Notes with a Conversion Date following the effective date of such Make-Whole
Fundamental Change, the consideration due upon such shall be deemed to be an
amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the
applicable Conversion Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares),
multiplied by such Stock Price. The Company shall notify the Holders of Notes of
the effective date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change no later than five
(5) Business Days after such effective date.

 

-30-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall
be increased shall be determined by reference to the table in Section 7.07(e),
based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes
effective and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed to be paid) per
share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If the holders
of the Common Stock receive in exchange for their Common Stock only cash in a
Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of
Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share.
Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices
per share of Common Stock over the five (5) Trading Days ending on, and
including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the
Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

(d) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table in
Section 7.07(e) shall be adjusted in the same manner as, and at the same time
and for the same events for which, the Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to
Section 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.04(c), 7.04(d) or 7.04(e). The adjusted Stock Prices
shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment,
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate
immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment
and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number
of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same
manner as, and at the same time and for the same events for which, the
Conversion Rate is adjusted pursuant to Section 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.04(c),
7.04(d) or 7.04(e).

(e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares of Common
Stock by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal
amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 7.07 for each Stock Price and effective
date set forth below:

If such effective date or Stock Price are not set forth in the table above,
then:

(i) if such Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the
effective date is between two effective dates in the table above, then the
number of Additional Shares will be determined by a straight-line interpolation
between the numbers of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower
Stock Prices in the table and the earlier and later effective dates in the table
above, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year, as applicable;

(ii) if the Stock Price is greater than $75.00 per share (subject to adjustment
in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the
table above are adjusted pursuant to Section 7.07(d)), then no Additional Shares
will be added to the Conversion Rate; and

(iii) if the Stock Price is less than $13.97 per share (subject to adjustment in
the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the
table above are adjusted pursuant to Section 7.07(d)), then no Additional Shares

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Conversion Rate
be increased pursuant to this Section 7.07 to an amount that exceeds 69.3000
shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which amount is
subject to adjustment in the same manner as, and at the same time and for the
same events for which, the Conversion Rate is required to be adjusted pursuant
to Section 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.04(c), 7.04(d) or 7.04(e).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 7.08 Taxes on Shares Issued. Any issue of shares of Common Stock upon
the conversion of Notes shall be made without charge to the converting Holder
for any documentary, transfer, stamp or any similar tax in respect of the issue
thereof, and the Company shall pay any and all documentary, stamp or similar
issue or transfer taxes or duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or
delivery of shares of Common Stock, if any, upon conversion of Notes pursuant
hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax which
may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of
shares in any name other than that of the Holder of any Notes converted, and, in
addition to any other requirements or conditions set forth herein, the Company
shall not be required to issue or deliver any such shares unless and until the
Person or Persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Company
the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the
Company that such tax has been paid.

Section 7.09 Reservation of Shares; Listing. The Company shall at all times
provide, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury,
sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of the Notes
from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming that, at
the time of the computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be
held by a single Holder). The Company will use its best efforts to cause all
shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes to be listed on any
U.S. securities exchange upon which the Common Stock is then listed.

Section 7.10 Shareholder Rights Plan. Each share of Common Stock, if any, issued
upon conversion of Notes pursuant to this Article 7 shall be entitled to receive
the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates, if any,
representing such shares shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be
provided by the terms of any then-effective shareholder rights agreement adopted
by the Company, as any such agreement may be amended from time to time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to any conversion of any Notes, such
rights have separated from the Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of
the applicable shareholder rights agreement, then the Conversion Rate shall be
adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company had distributed, to all
holders of the Common Stock, Distributed Property as described in
Section 7.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration,
termination or redemption of such rights. Unless and until such rights have so
separated, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made pursuant to
Section 7.04(c) on account of such rights.

Section 7.11 Company Determination Final. Any determination that the Board of
Directors contemplated pursuant to this Article 7 shall be conclusive if made in
good faith and in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7, absent
manifest error.

Section 7.12 Exchange in Lieu of Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Article 7, and subject to the terms of this Section 7.12, if a
Note is to be converted, the Company may elect to arrange to have such Note
exchanged in lieu of conversion by a financial institution designated by the
Company. To make such election, the Company must provide written notice of such
election to the Holder of such Note before the Close of Business on the Business
Day immediately after the Conversion Date for such Note. If the Company has made
such election, then:

(a) no later than the Business Day immediately after such Conversion Date, the
Company must deliver such Note, together with delivery instructions for the
consideration due upon such conversion, to a financial institution designated by
the Company that has agreed to deliver such consideration in the manner and at
the time the Company would have had to deliver the same pursuant to this Article
7; and

(b) such Note will not cease to be outstanding by reason of such exchange in
lieu of conversion;

provided, however, that if such financial institution does not accept such Note
or fails to timely deliver such consideration, then the Company will be
responsible for delivering such consideration in the manner and at the time
provided in this Article 7 as if the Company had not elected to make an exchange
in lieu of conversion.

(a) It is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D as
promulgated under the Securities Act. It is purchasing the Notes and the shares
of Common Stock, if any, issuable upon conversion thereof for its own account

risk of investing in the Notes and such shares of Common Stock, including a
complete loss of such investment.

(c) It is aware that an investment in the Notes and shares of Common Stock, if
any, issuable upon conversion thereof involves a high degree of risk, and such
securities are, therefore, a speculative investment.

the Company and any of its Subsidiaries and either (i) enforcement proceedings
shall have been commenced upon such judgment, decree or order or (ii) such
judgment, decree or order shall not have been settled, satisfied, stayed,
vacated or discharged within thirty (30) days from entry; and

(k) an Event of Default declared pursuant to Section 9.03(b).

Section 9.02 Reporting Defaults.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Company may elect that the
sole remedy for any Event of Default (a “Reporting Event of Default”) pursuant
to Section 9.01(e) arising from the Company’s failure to comply with
Section 4.03 will, for each of the first one hundred and eighty (180) calendar
days on which a Reporting Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
consist exclusively of the accrual of Special Interest on the Notes. If the
Company has made such an election, then the Notes will be subject to
acceleration pursuant to Section 9.03 on account of the relevant Reporting Event
of Default from, and including, the one hundred and eighty first
(181st) calendar day on which a Reporting Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or if the Company fails to pay any accrued and unpaid Special
Interest when due.

(b) Any Special Interest that accrues on a Note pursuant to Section 9.02(a) will
be payable on the same dates and in the same manner as the Stated Interest on
such Note and will accrue at a rate per annum equal to (i) one quarter of one
percent (0.25%) of the principal amount thereof for the first ninety
(90) calendar days following the Reporting Event of Default and (ii) one half of
one percent (0.50%) thereafter until such Reporting Event of Default shall have
been cured; provided, however, that in no event will Special Interest, together
with any Additional Interest, accrue on any day on a Note at a combined rate per
annum that exceeds one-half of one percent (0.50%). For the avoidance of doubt,
any Special Interest that accrues on a Note will be in addition to the Stated
Interest that accrues on such Note and, subject to the proviso of the
immediately preceding sentence, in addition to any Additional Interest or
Default Interest that accrues on such Note.

(c) To make the election set forth in Section 9.02(a), the Company must send to
the Holders, before the date on which each Reporting Event of Default first
occurs, a written notice that states that the Company is electing that the sole
remedy for such Reporting Event of Default consist of the accrual of Special
Interest.

Section 9.03 Acceleration of Maturity; Waiver of Past Defaults and Rescission.

(a) If an Event of Default (other than an event of default pursuant to
Section 9.01(k), as to which the provisions of Section 9.03(b) will apply, and
other than an Event of Default specified in Section 9.01(h) or Section 9.01(i)
with respect to the Company and not solely with respect to any Significant
Subsidiaries of the Company) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such
case the Holders of at least a majority in the aggregate Principal Amount of the
outstanding Notes may declare 100% of the Principal Amount plus the Repayment
Premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on all the outstanding Notes to be due
and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the other
Holders if given by any Holder), and upon any such declaration, such Principal
Amount, Repayment Premium and accrued and unpaid interest shall become
immediately due and payable.

 

-38-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default specified in
Section 9.01(h) or Section 9.01(i) with respect to the Company (and not solely
with respect to any Significant Subsidiaries of the Company), 100% of the
Principal Amount plus the Repayment Premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on
all outstanding Notes will automatically become due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of any Holder.

(b) If any representation or warranty of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
in any Note Document to which it is party or in any certificate, financial
statement or other document delivered by the Company or such Subsidiary in
connection with this Agreement proves to have not been true and correct in any
material respect at the time it was made (except that any representation or
warranty that is qualified as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect”
shall be true and correct in all respects), then Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount of Notes then outstanding which are held by any of
the Investors (or their Affiliates) will have the right to designate such event
to constitute an Event of Default and the right to declare 100% of the Principal
Amount plus the Repayment Premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on all the
outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately, in each case by a notice in
writing to the Company (and to the other Holders if given by any Holder), and
upon any such declaration, such Principal Amount, Repayment Premium and accrued
and unpaid interest shall become immediately due and payable.

(c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the outstanding
Notes, by written notice to the Company and each other Holder, may (x) waive any
past Default and its consequences and (y) at any time after a declaration of
acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the
money due has been obtained, rescind any such acceleration with respect to the
Notes and its consequences, except, in each case, with respect to a Default
described in Section 9.01(a), Section 9.01(b) or Section 9.01(d), or in respect
of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 13 cannot be modified or
amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note affected, if:

(i) such rescission will not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction; and

(ii) all existing Events of Default (except the non-payment of Principal Amount,
Repayment Premium and accrued and unpaid interest that has become due solely
because of such acceleration) have been cured or waived.

Upon any such waiver, the Default which has been waived shall cease to exist and
any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for
every purpose of the Agreement; but no such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

Section 9.04 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Payment and Convert.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Holder
to receive payment of the Principal Amount (including interest in respect of the
Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the
Notes or otherwise, as applicable), any accrued and unpaid interest and to
convert the Notes in accordance with Article 7, or to bring suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates or the right
to convert, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such
Holder.

Section 9.05 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If any Holder has instituted
any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement and such
proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been
determined adversely to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Company and the Holders shall be restored
severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter
all rights and remedies of the Holders shall continue as though no such
proceeding had been instituted.

Section 9.06 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as otherwise provided with
respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Notes in the last paragraph of Section 3.07, no right or remedy herein conferred
upon or reserved to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right
or remedy,

 

-39-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or
hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment
of any right or remedy hereunder shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 9.07 Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of any Holder of
any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default
shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event
of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article or by law to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as
often as may be deemed expedient, by the Holders.

Section 9.08 Control by Holders. The Holders of a majority in aggregate
Principal Amount of the outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Holders.

Section 9.09 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right
or remedy under this Agreement in respect of the Notes, a court may require any
party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit,
and the court may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorney’s 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; but
the provisions of this Section 9.09 shall not apply to any suit instituted by
the Company or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the
payment of the Principal Amount on any Note on or after the Maturity Date of
such Note.

MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS

Section 10.01 Company May Consolidate, etc., only on Certain Terms. The Company
shall not, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions,
consolidate or merge with or into any other Person, or, directly or indirectly,
sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all
of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, to another Person or group of affiliated Persons (in each case other than
to one or more of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries), except that the Company may
consolidate or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise
dispose of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to another Person or group of affiliated
Persons if:

(a) the Company is the surviving Person or the resulting, surviving, transferee
or successor Person (the “Successor Company”) (if other than the Company)
expressly assumes, by an agreement supplemental hereto, all obligations of the
Company under this Agreement, including payment of the Principal Amount and
interest on the Notes, and the performance and observance of all of the
covenants and conditions of this Agreement to be performed by the Company; and

(b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default under this

or merger of the Company with or into, any other Person or any sale, conveyance,
transfer, lease or other disposal of all or substantially all of the
consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to
another Person or group of affiliated Persons in accordance with Section 10.01,
the Successor Company formed by such consolidation or with or into which the
Company is merged or to which such sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other
disposal is made shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of,
the Company under this Agreement with the same effect as if such Successor
Company had been named as the Company herein. If the predecessor is still in
existence after such transaction, it will be released from its obligations and
covenants under this Agreement and the Notes, except in the case of a lease of
all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

ARTICLE 11.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

Section 11.01 Demand Registrations.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, any Holder or Holders (each, together
with any Holder requesting registration pursuant to, and in compliance with,
Section 11.02, a “Requesting Holder”) may deliver a written request to the
Company in accordance with Section 14.01 (a “Demand”) that the Company effect a
registration with respect to the Registrable Securities under the Securities Act
to cover a registered sale of such Registrable Securities for cash by such
Requesting Holder. Such Demand shall specify the number of Registrable
Securities such Requesting Holder intends to include in such registration and
the methods by which such Requesting Holder intends to sell or dispose of such
Registrable Securities (including whether such Requesting Holder intends to
distribute the Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering (an
“Underwritten Offering”) or pursuant to sales from time to time without an
underwriter (a “Shelf Offering”)); provided, however, that in no event may any
Requesting Holder make a Demand for an Underwritten Offering unless the
Registrable Securities to be offered and sold by such Requesting Holder in such
Underwritten Offering are reasonably expected to result in gross proceeds to
such Requesting Holder of at least twenty million dollars ($20,000,000). Upon
receipt of such Demand, the Company shall, subject to the terms and conditions
of this Article 11, use its commercially reasonably efforts (subject, for the
avoidance of doubt, to Blackout Periods to the extent provided in Section 11.04)
to (i) file and cause to become effective under the Securities Act a
Registration Statement covering the resale of such Registrable Securities by
such Requesting Holder as soon as reasonably practicable; (ii) qualify such
Registrable Securities under applicable blue sky or other securities laws of any
state of the United States of America to the extent set forth herein; and
(iii) comply in all material respects with applicable regulations issued under
the Securities Act and any other governmental requirements or regulations, in
each case in such a manner as would permit or facilitate the distribution in an
underwritten offering or other sale of all or any portion of such Registrable
Securities as reasonably specified in such Demand.

(b) In connection with any Demand that requests an Underwritten Offering, the
Requesting Holders named as selling securityholders in the related Registration
Statement shall be entitled to select (subject to the Company’s approval, with
will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) the lead managing underwriter
thereof, and the Company shall enter into any reasonable and customary agreement
requested by such lead managing underwriter in connection with such Underwritten
Offering, including, but not limited to, an underwriting agreement in customary
form with such lead managing underwriter; provided, however, that in no event
shall the Company be required to include shares of Common Stock or any other
securities for its own account in such offering.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary:

(i) upon the Company’s receipt of any Demand by a Requesting Holder pursuant to
Section 11.01(a), the Company will have the right to amend any Registration
Statement theretofore filed pursuant to this Section 11.01 to add such
Requesting Holder as a selling securityholder thereunder; and

(ii) in no event will the Company be obligated to effect more than three
(3) Underwritten Offerings pursuant to this Section 11.01 (provided for this
purpose, an offering shall not constitute an Underwritten Offering unless and
until it is completed).

Section 11.02 Piggyback Registration.

(a) If the Company at any time determines to file a registration statement under
the Securities Act to register the offer and sale, by the Company, of Common
Stock (other than (x) on Form S-4 or Form S-8 under the Securities Act or any
successor forms thereto, (y) an at-the-market offering, or (z) a Registration of
securities solely relating to an offering and sale to employees or directors of
the Company pursuant to any employee stock plan or other employee benefit plan
arrangement) or a registration statement, or in connection with an Underwritten
Offering, pursuant to Section 11.01, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably
practicable (but in no event will the Company be required to provide such notice
before the time such Registration Statement is filed with the Commission and in
no event will the Company be required to provide any information that might be
considered material non-public information), give written notice to each Holder
of its intention to so register the offer and sale

 

-41-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

of Common Stock and, upon the written request, given within five (5) Business
Days after delivery of any such notice by the Company, of any such Holder to
include in such registration Registrable Securities (which request shall specify
the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be included in such
registration), subject to Section 11.02(b), the Company shall cause all such
Registrable Securities to be included in such registration statement on the same
terms and conditions as the Common Stock otherwise being sold pursuant to such
registered offering.

(b) In the event the registration statement referred to in Section 11.02(a)
relates to an Underwritten Offering, if the managing underwriter advises the
Company that the inclusion of all such Registrable Securities proposed to be
included in such registration pursuant to this Section 11.02 would interfere
with the successful marketing (including pricing) of the Common Stock to be
offered thereby, then the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be
included in such registration shall be allocated among the Company and the
selling Investors (i) first, to the Common Stock to be offered by the Company,
if any; and (ii) second, to the Registrable Securities to be offered by the
Requesting Holders on a pro rata basis.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) the Company retains the right,
exercisable in its sole discretion, to abandon or delay the offering
contemplated by any registration statement referred to in Section 11.02(a) and
to withdraw any such registration statement, in which event any offering of
Registrable Securities contemplated therein will be similarly abandoned or
delayed; and (ii) no Holder will have any right to receive any notice or to
include any Registrable Securities in any registration statement pursuant to
this Section 11.02 to the extent that, at such time, a Registration Statement
covering the resale of such Holders Registrable Securities has been filed and is
effective in accordance with Section 11.01.

Section 11.03 Obligations of the Company. At such time as the Company is
obligated to file a Registration Statement with the Commission pursuant to this
Article 11, the Company shall also be obligated to use commercially reasonable
efforts to take the following actions:

(a) promptly prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to any Registration Statement filed and the prospectus used in
connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement
effective, in the case of an Underwritten Offering, until the completion of such
offering, and in the case of a Shelf Offering, until such time as the
Registrable Securities of the Holders subject to such registration shall have
been sold pursuant thereto or such Registrable Securities have been, or could be
without restriction, sold pursuant to Rule 144 or another available exemption
from the registration requirement of the Securities Act;

(b) a reasonable period of time before filing a Registration Statement or
prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto (excluding documents to be
incorporated by reference therein), furnish to one (1) legal counsel for the
Holders participating in such offering and, if applicable, one (1) legal counsel
for the underwriters, if any, copies of all such documents in substantially the
form proposed to be filed, to enable such counsel to review such documents prior
to the filing thereof, and the Company shall make such reasonable changes
thereto as may be reasonably requested by such counsel;

(c) furnish or make available to each Holder participating in such offering, and
each underwriter, if any, without charge, such number of conformed copies of the
Registration Statement and each post-effective amendment thereto, including
financial statements (but excluding schedules, all documents incorporated or
deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and all exhibits, unless
requested in writing by such Holder or underwriter(s)), and such other
documents, as such Holders or such underwriter(s) may reasonably request, and
upon request a copy of any and all transmittal letters or other correspondence
to or received from, the Commission or any other relevant Governmental Authority
relating to such offering; provided, however, that the Company will in no event
be required to provide copies of any documents that have been filed with the
Commission on its EDGAR system (or any successor thereto);

(d) cooperate with the Holders participating in such offering and the
underwriter(s), if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of
certificates (not bearing any legends) representing Registrable Securities to be
sold after receiving written representations and covenants from each such Holder
in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company that the Registrable Securities
represented by the

 

-42-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

certificates so delivered by such Holder have been sold, and will be
transferred, in accordance with the Registration Statement, and enable such
Registrable Securities to be in such denominations and registered in such names
as the underwriter(s), if any, or such Holders may request reasonably promptly
following such sale;

(e) register and qualify the securities covered by such Registration Statement
under “blue sky” laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as shall be reasonably
requested by the underwriter(s), if any, and Holders (and to maintain such
registrations and qualifications effective for the applicable period of time set
forth in Section 11.03(a) above), and to do any and all other acts and things
that may be necessary or advisable to enable the underwriter(s), if any, and
such Holders to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of such shares;
provided, however, that the Company will not be required to (i) qualify
generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not be required but
for this Section 11.03(e), (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such
jurisdiction, or (iii) file any general consent to service of process in any
such jurisdiction;

(f) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be
delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of
which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect,
includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they are made, not misleading. The Company will use all reasonable
efforts to amend or supplement such prospectus or Registration Statement or any
document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or file
any other required document, as applicable, as soon as practicable in order to
cause such prospectus to not include any untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading;

(g) notify each Holder of Registrable Securities covered by such Registration
Statement and the underwriter(s), if any: (i) when the prospectus or any
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with
respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the
same has become effective; (ii) of any request by the Commission for amendments
or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus or for additional
information; (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of
any proceedings for that purpose; and (iv) of the receipt by the Company of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the
Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or
threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;

(h) furnish, in the case of any Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities
pursuant to this Article 11, at the request of the underwriter(s), on the date
that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters, the letter
(including any “bring-downs” related thereto) from the independent registered
accounting firm of the Company issued pursuant to the underwriting agreement
relating to such Underwritten Offering;

(i) cause all Registrable Securities sold pursuant to a Registration Statement
to be listed on the stock exchange, if any, on which the Company’s Common Stock
is then listed;

(j) make such representations and warranties to the underwriter(s), if any, in
form, substance and scope as are customarily made by issuers to underwriters in
underwritten offerings by selling stockholders of comparable size and confirm
the accuracy of the same if and when reasonable and customarily requested by
such underwriters, and matters relating to the compliance of the Registration
Statement and the prospectus with the Securities Act;

(k) bear all expenses in connection with the procedures in this Article 11 and
the registration of the offer and sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to
the Registration Statement, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of a
single counsel (together with no more than one local counsel) for the Requesting
Holders designated in writing to the Company by Requesting Holders holding a
majority of the Registrable Securities (such counsel(s), the “Designated
Counsel”); provided, however, that the

 

-43-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Company will in no event bear, and each Holder shall instead bear, the cost of
Selling Expenses with respect to such Holder’s Registrable Securities, if any,
in connection with the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the
Registration Statement, and each Holder and any other Person participating in
such offering shall bear all such specified Selling Expenses pro rata among each
other on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities which have been
registered; provided, further, the fees and disbursements of any Designated
Counsel to be borne by the Company will in no event exceed, in the aggregate,
fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) per Underwritten Offering or, without
duplication, per registration statement filed pursuant to Section 11.01 or
Section 11.02 in which any Requesting Holder is named as a selling stockholder.

(l) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness
of a Registration Statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of
any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any Registrable
Securities included in such Registration Statement for sale in any jurisdiction,
use all reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of such order as soon as
practicable; and

(m) to the extent reasonably and customarily requested by any underwriter for
purposes of a disposition of Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering
pursuant to this Article 11, provide such underwriter, its attorneys and agents
the opportunity to conduct a reasonable due diligence investigation with respect
to the Company; provided, however, that such Persons will, at the Company’s
request, first agree in writing with the Company that any information that is
reasonably and in good faith designated by the Company as confidential will be
kept confidential by such persons and will be used solely for the purposes of
contemplated by this Article 11, subject to customary exceptions.

Section 11.04 Black-Out Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, the Company may delay the filing or effectiveness of any Registration
Statement pursuant to Section 11.01, or to suspend the effectiveness or
availability thereof for the offer and sale of any Registrable Securities, for
any reason determined in good faith by the Company (including, without
limitation, due to the entry of any stop order with respect to such Registration
Statement or due to the occurrence or existence of any pending corporate
development) (any such delay or suspension, a “Black-Out Period”); provided,
however, that the Company shall (i) promptly notify the Requesting Holders in
writing of the commencement of such Blackout Period (provided that the Company
will not be required to disclose any information that might be considered
material non-public information), stating the date on which such Black-Out
Period will begin, and (ii) notify the Requesting Holders in writing of the date
on which the Black-Out Period ends; and, provided, further, that Black-Out
Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of forty five (45) calendar days during
any three hundred sixty five (365) day period (each, an “Allowable Black-Out
Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Black-Out Period above,
the Black-Out Period shall begin on and include the date the Requesting Holders
receive the notice referred to in clause (i) and shall end on and include the
later of the date the Requesting Holders receive the notice referred to in
clause (ii) and the date referred to in such notice. For the avoidance of doubt,
the provisions of Section 11.03(l) hereof shall not be applicable during the
period of any Allowable Black-Out Period. Upon expiration of the Black-Out
Period, the Company shall again be bound by Section 11.03(g). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver
unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of any Holder in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement in connection with any sale of Registrable
Securities with respect to which a Holder has entered into a contract for sale,
and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the applicable
Registration Statement (unless an exemption from such prospectus delivery
requirement exists), prior to the Holder’s receipt of the notice of a Black-Out
Period and for which the Holder has not yet settled.

Section 11.05 Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of
Registration Statement or Failure to Timely Convert. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 11.04, if (a) a Registration
Statement covering all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered
thereby and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to Section 11.01 is not
effective under the Securities Act (an “Effectiveness Failure”) on or before on
or before the ninetieth (90th) calendar day following receipt by the Company of
the related Demand; or (b) on any day after the Effective Date of a Registration
Statement filed by the Company pursuant to Section 11.01, sales of all of the
Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement
cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without
limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective,
to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be

 

-44-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

made pursuant to such Registration Statement or to register a sufficient number
of shares of Registrable Securities) (a “Maintenance Failure”), then, as relief
for the damages to any Holder by reason of any such Effectiveness Failure or
Maintenance Failure, additional interest (“Additional Interest”) shall accrue on
the principal amount of the Notes at a rate of one quarter of one percent
(0.25%) per annum until such Effectiveness Failure or Maintenance Failure, as
the case may be, is cured; provided, however, that in no event will Additional
Interest, together with any Special Interest, accrue on any day on a Note at a
combined rate per annum that exceeds one half of one percent (0.50%); provided,
further, that no Effectiveness Failure or Maintenance Failure will be deemed to
existing or be continuing at any time during any Allowable Black-Out Period. The
payments to which a Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 11.05 are
referred to herein as “Delay Payments.” Any Delay Payments will be payable in
the same form, on the same dates and to the same persons as Stated Interest;
provided, that any Delay Payments shall be payable only to the affected
Requesting Holder(s). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 11.05 will not
apply to any registration statements filed by the Company pursuant to
Section 11.02. The Delay Payment will constitute the exclusive and sole remedy
available against the Company on account of any Effectiveness Failure or
Maintenance Failure and will preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights
and remedies with respect to any Effectiveness Failure or Maintenance Failure.

Section 11.06 Obligations of Holders.

(a) Each Holder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the
prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it or an
exemption therefrom in connection with sale of Registrable Securities pursuant
to the Registration Statement.

(b) Each Holder agrees that upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the
happening of any event of the kind described in Section 11.03(f) or
Section 11.03(g)(ii), (iii) or (iv), such Holder will discontinue the
disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement or
prospectus (or, with respect to a notice pursuant to Section 11.03(g)(iv),
discontinue any such disposition in the applicable jurisdiction(s)) until such
Holder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus
contemplated by Section 11.03(f), or until it is advised in writing by the
Company that the use of the applicable prospectus may be resumed or that the
applicable suspension of the qualification has been lifted, and, if applicable,
has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such prospectus.

(c) Each Holder shall furnish to the Company materially complete and accurate
information regarding such Holder, the Registrable Securities and other
securities of the Company held by it and the distribution proposed by such
Holder as shall be required by applicable law or requested by the underwriter(s)
to effect the registration of their Registrable Securities.

Section 11.07 Indemnification.

(a) The Company will indemnify each Requesting Holder, each of its officers,
directors, partners, employees and agents, and each Person controlling such
Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), with respect to
any registration, qualification or sale which has been effected pursuant to this
Article 11, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in
settlement of any litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based
on (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact
contained in any registration statement filed pursuant to this Article 11, or
related prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such
registration, qualification or sale, or based on any omission (or alleged
omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any such prospectus, in
the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading, or
(ii) any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of the Securities Act,
the Exchange Act or the securities or similar laws of any state or other
jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are sold, and the Company will
reimburse or pay for the account of such Requesting Holder, officer, director,
partner, employee, agent or controlling person, for any legal and any other
expenses reasonably incurred (as and when incurred) in connection with
investigating, preparing the defense of or defending any such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action.

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Requesting Holder, severally and not
jointly, will, if securities held by such Requesting Holder, are included in the
securities as to which a registration, qualification or

 

-45-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

sale pursuant to this Article 11 is effected, indemnify the Company, each of its
officers, directors, partners, employees and agents, each Person who controls
the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), and any
other Person participating in such registration, each of its officers and
directors and each Person controlling (within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act) such Person participating in such registration, against all
expenses, claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any
litigation, commenced or threatened, arising out of or based on any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any
registration statement filed pursuant to this Article 11, or related prospectus,
or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such registration,
qualification or sale, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein (in the case of any such prospectus, in the light of the
circumstances in which they were made) not misleading, and the Company will
reimburse or pay for the account of the Company or such Person, officer,
director, partner, employee, agent or controlling person, for any legal and any
other expenses reasonably incurred (as and when incurred) in connection with
investigating, preparing the defense of or defending any such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action; provided, however, that in no event shall any
Requesting Holder have any liability under this Section 11.07(b) in any such
case except to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action
arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished to the Company by such Requesting Holder.

(c) Each indemnified party under this Section 11.07 shall give notice to the
indemnifying party promptly after such indemnified party has actual knowledge of
any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and shall permit the indemnifying
party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
therefrom; provided, however, that counsel for the indemnifying party, who shall
conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the
indemnified party (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the
indemnified party may participate in such defense at such indemnified party’s
expense; provided, further, that the failure of any indemnified party to give
notice as provided above shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its
obligations under this agreement except to the extent that the failure to give
such notice is materially prejudicial to an indemnifying party’s ability to
defend such action. No indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or
litigation, shall, except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an
unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or
litigation.

(d) The obligations of the Company and the Requesting Holders under this
Section 11.07 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable
Securities in a Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) If a claim for indemnification under Section 11.07(a) or Section 11.07(b) is
available by its terms but is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party, then each
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action that otherwise would have
been indemnified under Section 11.07(a) or Section 11.07(b), as the case may be,
in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
indemnifying party, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other, in
connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such claim, loss,
damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified
party 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
indemnifying party or the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The amount of such claim, loss, damage, liability or
action subject to this Section 11.07(e) shall be deemed to include any
reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage,
liability or action (which shall be limited as provided in Section 11.07(c) if
the indemnifying party has assumed the defense of any such action in accordance
with the provisions thereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing in this
Section 11.07(e), 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. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of
the commencement or threatened commencement of any claims for which a claim for
contribution may be made against an indemnifying party under this
Section 11.07(e) and if a notice for indemnification has not been otherwise
given

 

-46-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

under this Section 11.07, such indemnified party shall give written notice
thereof in the manner set forth hereunder for a claim for indemnification to the
indemnifying party; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any obligation to provide
contribution hereunder except to the extent that the indemnifying party’s
ability to defend such action is materially prejudiced by the failure to give
such timely notice. The parties acknowledge that determining contribution
pursuant to this Section 11.07(e) by pro rata allocation or by any other method
of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in this Section 11.07(e) would not be just or equitable. For the
avoidance of doubt, if indemnification is available under Section 11.07(a) or
Section 11.07(b), the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified
party to the fullest extent provided in Section 11.07(a) or Section 11.07(b)
without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified
party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this
Section 11.07(e).

Section 11.08 Effectiveness; Termination; Survival. The provisions of Article 11
(other than Section 11.07) shall survive the discharge or termination of this
Agreement until the earlier of (a) the time when no Registrable Securities are
outstanding; and (ii) four (4) years after the Maturity Date. The provisions of
Section 11.07 shall survive the discharge or termination of this Agreement
indefinitely.

ARTICLE 12.

GUARANTEES

Section 12.01 Guarantee. By its execution hereof, each Guarantor acknowledges
and agrees that it receives substantial benefits from the Company and the
issuance of the Notes and that the Guarantors are providing their Guarantee for
good and valuable consideration, including, without limitation, such substantial
benefits. Accordingly, subject to the provisions of this Article 12, the
Guarantors hereby jointly and severally unconditionally guarantee, as a primary
obligor and not as a surety, to each Holder and its successors and assigns that:
(x) the principal of, and premium and interest on the Notes shall be duly and
punctually paid in full or performed in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement when due, whether at the Maturity Date, upon declaration of
acceleration, upon conversion or otherwise, together with interest on overdue
principal, premium, interest and (to the extent permitted by law) interest on
any overdue interest, if any, on the Notes; (y) in case of any extension of time
of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, the same
shall be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the
terms of the extension or renewal, whether at the Maturity Date, by
acceleration, conversion or otherwise; and (z) all other obligations of the
Company to the Holders hereunder or under the Notes (including fees, expenses or
other) shall be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the
terms hereof, subject, in the case of clauses (x), (y) and (z) above, to the
limitations set forth in Section 12.03 hereof (the obligations set forth in this
Section 12.01, collectively, the “Guarantee Obligations”). The Guarantee
constitutes a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of each Guarantor.

(a) Subject to the provisions of this Article 12, each Guarantor hereby jointly
and severally agrees that its Guarantee hereunder shall be unconditional,
irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this
Agreement, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent
by any Holder with respect to any thereof, the entry of any judgment against the
Company, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of any Guarantor.
Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes: (i) any right to require the
Holders or the Company (each, a “Benefited Party”) to proceed against the
Company or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held
by a Benefited Party at any time or to pursue any other remedy in any secured
party’s power before proceeding against the Guarantor; (ii) any defense that may
arise by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of any
other Person or Persons or the failure of a Benefited Party to file or enforce a
claim against the estate (in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding)
of any other Person or Persons; (iii) demand, protest and notice of any kind
(except as expressly required by this Agreement), including, but not limited to,
notice of the existence, creation or incurring of any new or additional
Indebtedness or obligation or of any action or non-action on the part of the
Guarantor, the Company, any Benefited Party, any creditor of the Guarantor or
the Company or on the part of any other Person whomsoever in connection with any
obligations the performance of which are hereby guaranteed; (iv) any defense
based upon an election of remedies by a Benefited Party, including, but not
limited to, an election to proceed against the Guarantor for reimbursement;
(v) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the
obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects
more burdensome than that of the principal; (vi) any defense arising because of
a Benefited Party’s election, in any proceeding instituted under bankruptcy law,
of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; and (vii) any
defense based

 

-47-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

on any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the
Bankruptcy Code. Each Guarantor hereby covenants that, except as otherwise
provided therein, its Guarantee shall not be discharged except by payment in
full of all Guarantee Obligations, including the principal of, and premium and
interest on, the Notes and all other costs provided for under this Agreement.

(b) If any Holder is required by any court or otherwise to return to either the
Company or any Guarantor, any amount paid by the Company or such Guarantor to
such Holder, then the Guarantees, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be
reinstated in full force and effect. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree
that they shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the
Holders in respect of any Guarantee Obligations hereby until payment in full of
all such obligations guaranteed hereby. The Guarantors jointly and severally
agree that, as between them, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other
hand, (i) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated
as provided in Article 9 hereof for the purposes hereof, notwithstanding any
stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of
the Guarantee Obligations, and (ii) in the event of any acceleration of such
obligations as provided in Article 9 hereof, such Guarantee Obligations (whether
or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors
for the purpose of the Guarantee.

(c) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any Person that was not a
Guarantor on the date hereof becomes a directly owned Material Domestic
Subsidiary of (x) the Company or (y) any Guarantor, then the Company will cause
such Material Domestic Subsidiary to (i) execute an amendment or supplement to
this Agreement and (ii) otherwise comply with the provisions of this Article 12;
provided, however, that, any Material Domestic Subsidiary of the Company that
has no material assets other than equity in one or more Foreign Subsidiaries
shall not be required to become a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 12.01(c).

Section 12.02 Execution and Delivery of Guarantee. The execution by each
Guarantor of this Agreement (or an amendment or supplement to this Agreement
pursuant to Section 12.01(c)) evidences the Guarantee of such Guarantor, and the
delivery of any Note by the Company constitutes due delivery of each Guarantee
on behalf of each Guarantor. A Guarantee’s validity will not be affected by the
failure of any officer of a Guarantor executing this Agreement or any such
amendment or supplement on such Guarantor’s behalf to hold, at the time any Note
is issued and delivered, the same or any other office at such Guarantor, and
each Guarantee will be valid and enforceable even if no notation, certificate or
other instrument is set upon or attached to, or otherwise executed and delivered
to the Holder of, any Note.

Section 12.03 Limitation of Guarantors’ Liability; Certain Bankruptcy Events.
Each Guarantor, and, by its acceptance hereof, each Holder, hereby confirms that
it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee Obligations of each
Guarantor pursuant to its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or
conveyance for purposes of any Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance
Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state law. To
effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and each Guarantor hereby
irrevocably agree that the Guarantee Obligations of the Guarantors under this
Article 12 shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect
to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantors, result in the
Guarantee Obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantee not constituting a
fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

Section 12.04 Releases. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the
Note Documents, all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor is sold or otherwise
transferred to a Person or Persons, none of which is the Company or a
Subsidiary, then such Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or
transfer, be released from its obligations under this Agreement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company may, at its election,
execute an amendment or supplement to this Agreement to memorialize any such
release in accordance with this Section 12.04.

 

-48-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ARTICLE 13.

AMENDMENTS

Section 13.01 Amendments.

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Note Document or provision thereof may
be waived, amended or modified except by an agreement or agreements in writing
executed by the Company, the Guarantors and the Holders of a majority in
aggregate Principal Amount of the outstanding Notes, provided, however, that no
such agreement shall do the following without the written consent of each Holder
affected thereby: (i) reduce the Principal Amount or Repayment Premium of any
Note, (ii) reduce the rate of interest on any Note, (iii) change the Maturity
Date of any Note, or extend the time for the payment of any interest thereon or
waive or excuse any such payment, (iv) make any change that impairs or adversely
affects the conversion rights of any Note or reduces the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price of any Note, (v) change any of the provisions of this Article
13 without the written consent of each Holder, or (vi) adversely affect the
economic interests of any Holder hereunder disproportionately to other Holders
without the written consent of such Holder. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, this Agreement may be amended or
supplemented without the consent of any Holder in order to comply with, and
subject to the provisions of, Section 7.05, Article 10, Section 12.01(c) or
Section 12.04.

Section 14.02 Confidentiality.

(a) Except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or the other Note Documents
or except with the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party, the Recipient
hereby agrees that (i) it will use the Confidential Information of the
Disclosing Party solely for the purpose of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Note Documents and exercising its rights and remedies
and performing its obligations hereunder and thereunder; (ii) it will keep
confidential the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party; and (iii) it
will not furnish or disclose to any Person any Confidential Information of the
Disclosing Party.

 

-50-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14.02, the
Recipient may, without the consent of the Disclosing Party, furnish or disclose
Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to (i) the Recipient’s
Affiliates and their respective Representatives and actual or potential
financing sources, in each such case, who need to know such information to
assist the Recipient in evaluating the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Note Documents or in exercising its rights and remedies
and performing its obligations hereunder and thereunder and who are, prior to
such furnishing or disclosure, informed of the confidentiality and non-use
obligations contained in this Section 14.02 and who are bound by written or
professional confidentiality and non-use obligations no less stringent than
those contained in this Section 14.02; and (ii) potential permitted assignees,
purchasers, transferees or successors-in-interest under Section 3.09, in each
such case, who need to know such information in connection with such actual or
potential assignment, sale or transfer, including, following any such
assignment, sale or transfer, in order to exercise their rights and remedies and
perform their obligations under this Agreement and the other Note Documents and
who are, prior to such furnishing or disclosure, informed of the confidentiality
and non-use obligations contained in this Section 14.02 and who are bound by
written or professional confidentiality and non-use obligations no less
stringent than those contained in this Section 14.02.

(c) In the event that the Recipient, its Affiliates or any of their respective
Representatives is required by applicable law, applicable stock exchange
requirements or legal or judicial process (including by deposition,
interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or
similar process) to furnish or disclose any portion of the Confidential
Information of the Disclosing Party, the Recipient shall, to the extent legally
permitted, provide the Disclosing Party, as promptly as practicable, with
written notice of the existence of, and terms and circumstances relating to,
such requirement, so that the Disclosing Party may seek, at its expense, a
protective order or other appropriate remedy (and, if the Disclosing Party seeks
such an order, the Recipient, such Affiliates or such Representatives, as the
case may be, shall provide, at their expense, such cooperation as such
Disclosing Party shall reasonably require). Subject to the foregoing, the
Recipient, such Affiliates or such Representatives, as the case may be, may
disclose that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of
the Disclosing Party that is legally required to be disclosed; provided,
however, that the Recipient, such Affiliates or such Representatives, as the
case may be, shall exercise reasonable efforts (at their expense) to preserve
the confidentiality of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party,
including by obtaining reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded any such Confidential Information disclosed. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Section 14.02, in the event that the Recipient
or any of its Affiliates receives a request from an authorized representative of
a U.S. or foreign tax authority for a copy of this Agreement or any of the other
Note Documents, the Recipient or such Affiliate, as the case may be, may provide
a copy hereof or thereof to such tax authority representative without advance
notice to, or the consent of, the Disclosing Party; provided, however, that the
Recipient shall, to the extent legally permitted, provide the Disclosing Party
with written notice of such disclosure as soon as practicable.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 14.02, the
Recipient may disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party,
including this Agreement, the other Note Documents and the terms and conditions
hereof and thereof, to the extent necessary in connection with the enforcement
of its rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder or as required to perfect the
Recipient’s rights hereunder or thereunder.

(e) Neither Party shall, and each Party shall cause its Affiliates not to,
without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), issue any press release or make any other
public disclosure with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or any other Note Document, except if and to the extent that any such
release or disclosure is required by applicable law, by the rules and
regulations of any applicable stock exchange or by any Governmental Authority of
competent jurisdiction, in which case, the Party proposing (or whose Affiliate
proposes) to issue such press release or make such public disclosure shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to consult in good faith with the other Party
regarding the form and content thereof before issuing such press release or
making such public announcement.

(f) Except with respect to a Holder’s internal communications or private
communications with its Representatives, the Holders shall not, and shall cause
its Representatives, its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ Representatives not to
make use of the name, nickname, trademark, logo, service mark, trade dress or
other name,

 

-51-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

term, mark or symbol identifying or associated with the Company without the
Company’s prior written consent to the specific use in question, provided that
the consent of the Company shall not be required with respect to publication of
the Company’s name and logos in the a Holder’s promotional materials, including
without limitation the websites for a Holder and its Affiliates consistent with
its use of other similarly situated Third Parties’ names and logos.

Section 14.03 When Notes Are Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of
the required Principal Amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver
or consent, Notes owned by the Company or by any Affiliate of the Company shall
be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding. Also, subject to the foregoing,
only Notes outstanding at the time shall be considered in any such
determination.

Section 14.04 Deferral of Payments When Payment Date is Not a Business Day. If
the due date for a payment on a Note as provided in this Agreement is not a
Business Day, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement
or the Notes, payment shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a
Business Day, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. If a
Regular Record Date is not a Business Day, the Regular Record Date shall not be
affected.

Section 14.05 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES, AND ANY CLAIM,
CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE NOTES,
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.

Section 14.06 No Recourse against Others. No incorporator, director, officer,
employee, stockholder or Affiliate of the Company (other than the Guarantors, as
such, to the extent provided in Article 12), or of any Guarantor, solely by
reason of this status, shall have any liability for any obligations of the
Company or any Guarantor under the Notes or this Agreement or for any claim
based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By
accepting a Note, each Holder will be deemed to waive and release all such
liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the
issue of the Notes.

Section 14.07 Successors. All agreements of the Company, the Guarantors and each
Investor and Holder, as applicable, in this Agreement and the Notes shall bind
their respective successors.

Section 14.08 Multiple Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of
this Agreement. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together
represent the same agreement. One signed copy is enough to prove this Agreement.
Delivery of an executed counterpart by facsimile or “.pdf” shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

Section 14.09 Indemnification. The Company agrees to defend, indemnify, pay and
hold harmless, each Indemnified Party from and against any and all Indemnified
Liabilities, in all cases, arising, in whole or in part, out of or relating to
any claim, notice, suit or proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person
(including any Governmental Authority); provided, however, that the Company
shall not have any obligation to any Indemnified Party hereunder with respect to
any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. To
the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set
forth in this Section 14.09 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because
they are violative of any law or public policy, the Company shall contribute the
maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to
the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by any
Indemnified Party. In addition, each Indemnified Party agrees that the Company
shall not have any obligation to pay to or contribute on behalf of such
Indemnified Party an amount in excess of an amount equal to the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes purchased by such Indemnified Party pursuant to
this Agreement.

Section 14.10 Waiver of Consequential and Punitive Damages. To the extent
permitted by applicable law, no Party shall assert, and each Party hereby
waives, any claim against each other Party and such Party’s Affiliates,
directors, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or
actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or
duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection
with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Note
Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or

 

-52-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby, the Notes or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission
or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Party hereby waives,
releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether
or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

Section 14.11 Table of Contents; Headings. The table of contents and headings of
the Articles and Sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience
of reference only, are not intended to be considered a part hereof and shall not
modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 14.12 Severability Clause. In case any provision in this Agreement shall
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby
and such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability.

Section 14.13 Calculations. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company (or
its agents) will be responsible for making all calculations called for under
this Agreement or the Notes. The Company (or its agents) will make all such
calculations in good faith, and, absent manifest error, its calculations will be
final and binding on Holders. Upon written request of a Holder, the Company (or
its agents) will provide a detailed schedule of its calculations.

Section 14.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS, THE
INVESTORS AND THE HOLDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE SECURITIES OR THE
TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.

Section 14.15 Consent to Jurisdiction.

(a) Each of the Company, the Investors and the Holders hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States
sitting in the State and City of New York, County and Borough of Manhattan, and
any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or the Notes, or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all
claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined
in such state court sitting in the State and City of New York, County and
Borough of Manhattan or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court
sitting in the State and City of New York, County and Borough of Manhattan.

(b) Each of the Company, the Investors and the Holders hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of
any suit, action proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
Notes in any New York State or federal court, and each hereby irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

Section 14.16 Tax Forms. Each Holder, on or before the date it becomes a party
to this Agreement and thereafter upon reasonable request of the Company, shall
furnish to the Company, to the extent such Holder is legally eligible to do so,
either a completed and signed IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or
other applicable Form W-8, together with applicable attachments), as may be
