investment banker, attorney or accountant retained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) not to, initiate, continue, solicit or knowingly encourage,
directly or indirectly, any inquiries or the making of any Investment Proposal or engage in any negotiations concerning, or provide any confidential information or data to, or have any discussions with (other than to state that they are not

ongoing operations pursuant to procedures reasonably requested in writing by the Investor or its representatives. The Investor acknowledges that it shall not have any approval rights under this Section 5.5. The Company acknowledges that
any such consultation shall not constitute a waiver by the Investor of any rights it may have under this Agreement and that the Investor shall not have any liability or responsibility for any actions of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of
their respective directors or officers with respect to matters that are the subject of such consultations.

	 	(a)	As soon as reasonably practicable after the First Closing, the Company shall offer to each then-record holder of Common Stock (each a “Special Offeree”) the
transferable right to purchase up to such Special Offeree’s pro rata share (based upon, as of the record date set for the Rights Offering, the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Special Offeree relative to the number
of shares of Common Stock owned by all Special Offerees) of approximately Fifty Million (50,000,000) shares of Common Stock (the “Rights Offer Shares”) at a price per share in cash equal to Three Dollars and Five Cents ($3.05)
(the “Rights Offering Per Share Purchase Price”). 

  

	 	(b)	Rights Offering Documents. 

  

	 	(i)	In connection with the Rights Offering, the Company shall prepare an offering memorandum, subscription documents, and all other documents necessary to be distributed to Special
Offerees in order to consummate the Rights Offering (collectively, the “Rights Offering Documents”) and a Company Registration Statement, to the extent necessary, and to promptly mail such Rights Offering Documents to Special
Offerees. The Rights Offering Documents shall be in customary form. The Company shall provide to the Investor copies of all substantial drafts of the Rights Offering Documents, and all modifications thereto, prior to the distribution of such Rights
Offering Documents to Special Offerees and shall consult with the Investor in connection therewith, and such Rights Offering Documents shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Investor. The Rights Offering Documents shall not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact, and shall not omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, under the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading. If, subsequent to the
distribution of the Rights Offering Documents to Special Offerees, and prior to consummation of the Rights Offering, the Company or the Investor become aware of any untrue statement or omission of material fact in the Rights Offering Documents, the
Company or the Investor shall immediately inform the other. The Company shall thereafter promptly prepare and distribute to all Special Offerees a supplement to the Rights Offering Documents (the “Rights Offering Supplement”). Such
Rights Offering Supplement shall clarify and correct any untrue statement or omission. Any Rights Offering Supplement must be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Investor. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Company shall engage its transfer agent, as the agent for the Rights Offering. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Any Special Offeree that elects to subscribe for Rights Offer Shares shall fill out a Rights Offering subscription form in accordance with the 



  

 -40- 









	 	 
instructions set forth in the Rights Offering Documents and send such forms back to the Company within 30 days from the date of the Rights Offering Documents
(the “Rights Offering Period”). At the closing of the Rights Offering, the Company shall issue to each Special Offeree the number of Rights Offer Shares so subscribed for by such Special Offeree. In the Second Closing, subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Rights Offer Shares not so subscribed for by Special Offerees within the Rights Offering Period (the “Remaining Offer Shares”) shall be purchased on a per share equivalent by the
Investor in the form of Senior Preferred Stock (or, if the Company Stockholder Approval has been obtained, Junior Preferred Stock) at a per share equivalent price equal to the Rights Offering Per Share Purchase Price. 



 

	 	(c)	The Investor agrees not to effect any sale or distribution of shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock
(including the Subject Senior Preferred Shares and the Commitment Fee Shares), during the 15-day period prior to, and during the 30-day period beginning on, the date of the Rights Offering Documents, provided that the Investor is timely
notified of such date in writing by the Company. 

  

	 	(d)	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Rights Offering shall be consummated following the expiration of the Rights Offering Period and the receipt of the Company
Stockholder Approval, if required for such consummation. 

 Section 5.7 Amendment and Restatement of Bylaws 
 Upon receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval with respect to the New Charter, the Company and the Board shall take all necessary action to ensure that the Bylaws of
the Company are amended substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F, with such other changes as the Board of Directors approves, with the consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.

Directors”) by the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with the provisions of Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the

 RESOLVED, that (1) pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Board of Directors of the Corporation by the Certificate of Incorporation, the Board of Directors hereby designates 1,500,000 shares of the
preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Corporation as “Senior Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Senior Preferred Stock”), and the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and

liquidation preference of the Senior Preferred Stock shall initially be $1,000 per share. 
 Section 2. Ranking. The
Senior Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution, rank (i) on a parity with each other class or series of preferred stock established after the Effective Date by the Corporation,
the terms of which expressly provide that such class or series will rank on a parity with the Senior Preferred Stock as to dividend rights and rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation (collectively referred to as
“Parity Securities”) and (ii) senior to the Corporation’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), Series A Junior Participating Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series B Junior Participating Convertible Preferred

rights on liquidation, winding-up and dissolution of the Corporation (collectively referred to as “Junior Securities”). The Corporation has the right to authorize and/or issue additional shares or classes or series of Junior
Securities without the consent of the Holders. 
 Section 3. Definitions. Unless the context or use indicates another meaning or

converted into shares of Common Stock, and (ii) any share of Series B Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Common Stock that such share of Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible. 
 (e) “Beneficial Owner” has the meaning given such term in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that for purposes of this
Certificate of Designations, such Person or Group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such Person or Group has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage
of time. 
 (f) “Board of Directors” has the meaning set forth in the preamble hereto.

reported, the last reported sale price of the shares of the Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on such date. If the Common Stock is not traded on the New York Stock Exchange on any date of determination, the Closing Price of the Common
Stock on such date of determination means the closing sale price as reported in the composite transactions for the principal U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so listed or quoted, or, if no closing sale price
is reported, the last reported sale price on the principal U.S. national or regional securities exchange on which the Common Stock is so listed or quoted, or if the Common Stock is not so listed or quoted on a U.S. national or regional securities
exchange, the last quoted bid price for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market as reported by Pink Sheets LLC or similar organization, or, if that bid price is not available, the market price of the Common Stock on that date as determined
by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Corporation for this purpose.

 (b) If the Board of Directors declares and pays a cash dividend in respect of any shares of Common Stock,
then the Board of Directors shall declare and pay to the Holders of the Senior Preferred Stock a cash dividend in an amount per share of Senior Preferred Stock equal to the product of (i) the per share dividend declared and paid in respect of
each share of Common Stock and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Senior Preferred Stock would then be ultimately convertible if Stockholder Approvals had been obtained. 
 (c) Unless the Stockholder Approvals shall have been obtained on or before September 15, 2008, until the date of receipt of all Stockholder
Approvals, in addition to the dividends provided for in Section 4(b), dividends shall commence accruing from September 15, 2008 and continue to accrue, whether or not declared, and be payable quarterly in arrears on

the full dividends contemplated by Section 4(b) are paid at the same time in respect of the Senior Preferred Stock. 
 (e) Each
dividend will be payable to Holders of record as they appear in the records of the Corporation at the close of business on the same record date (each, a “Record Date”), which (i) with respect to dividends payable pursuant to

on the first day of the month in which the relevant Section 4(c) Dividend Payment Date occurs or, if such date is not a Business Day, the first Business Day of such month. 
  

 -6- 








 (f) Dividends payable pursuant to Section 4(b) on the Senior Preferred Stock are

Mandatory Conversion Date. If the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any share of Senior Preferred Stock is after the Record Date for any declared dividend and prior to the payment date for that dividend, the Holder thereof shall receive that
dividend on the relevant payment date if such Holder was the Holder of record on the Record Date for that dividend.

 (a) In the event the Corporation voluntarily or involuntarily liquidates, dissolves or winds up (a “Liquidation Transaction”), each
Holder at the time shall be entitled to receive for each share of Senior Preferred Stock held by such Holder liquidating distributions in the amount of the greater of (i) the then-current Liquidation Preference per share of Senior Preferred
Stock, plus an amount equal to any accrued dividends, whether or not declared thereon to and including the date of such liquidation, to the extent not added to the Liquidation Preference pursuant to Section 4(c), provided, that,
if a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up occurs prior to the December 15, 2008, the accrued Special Dividend, whether or not declared, shall be deemed to be the full amount that would have accrued between September 15, 2008 and
December 15, 2008, and (ii) the amount that would be payable if the share of Senior Preferred Stock had been converted, immediately prior to such liquidating distributions, into the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the
Liquidation Preference divided by the Applicable Conversion Price and the shares of Series B Preferred Stock had been converted, immediately prior to such liquidating distributions, into the number of shares of Common Stock in accordance with the
terms thereof; in each case out of assets legally available for distribution to the Corporation’s stockholders, before any distribution of assets is made to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock or any other Junior Securities. After
payment of the full amount of such liquidating distributions, Holders of the Senior Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to participate in any further distribution of the remaining assets of the Corporation. 
 (b) In the event the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to stockholders upon any Liquidation Transaction, whether voluntary or
involuntary, shall be insufficient to pay in full the amounts payable with respect to all outstanding shares of the Senior Preferred Stock and the corresponding amounts payable on any Parity Securities, Holders and the holders of such Parity
Securities shall share ratably in any distribution of assets of the Corporation in proportion to the full respective liquidating distributions to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled. 
 (c) The Corporation’s consolidation or merger with or into any other entity, the consolidation or merger of any other entity with or into the
Corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s property or business will not constitute its liquidation, dissolution or winding up; provided, that, a Fundamental Change shall constitute a liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Corporation unless waived by the vote or consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock at the time outstanding voting as a single class. 
 Section 6. Maturity. The Senior Preferred Stock shall be perpetual unless converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations.

 Section 7. Redemptions. The Senior Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable either at the Corporation’s option or at the
option of Holders at any time. 
 Section 8. Mandatory Conversion. Effective as of the close of business on the Mandatory
Conversion Date with respect to any share of Senior Preferred Stock, such share of Senior Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Series B Preferred Stock as set forth below. The number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock into
which a share of Senior Preferred Stock shall be convertible shall be determined by dividing the then-current Liquidation Preference by the Applicable Conversion Price (subject to the conversion procedures of Section 9) plus cash in lieu
of fractional shares in accordance with Section 13. 
  

 -8- 








 Section 9. Conversion Procedures. 
 (a) Upon occurrence of the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to shares of any Holder, the Corporation shall provide notice of such conversion to such
Holder (such notice a “Notice of Mandatory Conversion”). In addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, the Notice of Mandatory Conversion with respect to such Holder shall state, as appropriate:

 (i) the Mandatory Conversion Date applicable to such Holder; 
 (ii) the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock to be issued upon conversion of each share of Senior Preferred Stock held of record by such Holder
and subject to such mandatory conversion; and 
 (iii) the place or places where certificates for shares of Senior Preferred Stock held of
record by such Holder are to be surrendered for issuance of certificates representing shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (b) In the event
that such Holder fails to surrender the required number of shares pursuant to this Section 9 within 30 days after the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Corporation shall, by written notice to such Holder, indicate which shares have been
converted pursuant to Section 8. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect any share of Senior Preferred Stock, dividends shall no longer be declared or accrue on any such
converted share of Senior Preferred Stock and such share of Senior Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding, in each case, subject to the right of the Holder to receive any declared or accrued and unpaid dividends on such share to the extent
provided in Section 4(h) and any other payments to which such Holder is otherwise entitled pursuant to Section 8, Section 11 or Section 13 hereof, as applicable. 
 (c) No allowance or adjustment, except pursuant to Section 10, shall be made in respect of dividends payable to holders of the Series B
Preferred Stock of record as of any date prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any share of Senior Preferred Stock. Prior to the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any share
of Senior Preferred Stock, shares of Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, or other securities issuable upon conversion of such share of Senior Preferred Stock, shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and the Holder
thereof shall have no rights with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion (including voting rights, rights to respond to tender offers for the Series B Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon
conversion and rights to receive any dividends or other distributions on the Series B Preferred Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion) by virtue of holding such share of Senior Preferred Stock. 
 (d) Shares of Senior Preferred Stock converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations, or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation, will
resume the status of authorized and unissued preferred stock, undesignated as to series and available for future issuance. The Corporation may from time-to-time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of
shares of Senior Preferred Stock. 
  

 -9- 








 (e) The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Series B Preferred Stock and/or cash, securities or
other property issuable upon conversion of Senior Preferred Stock shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock and/or securities as of the close of business on the Mandatory Conversion Date
with respect thereto. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Series B Preferred Stock and/or cash, securities or other property (including payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares) to be
issued or paid upon conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock should be registered or paid or the manner in which such shares should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares, and make such payment, in
the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation. 
 (f) On the Mandatory Conversion Date with respect to any
share of Senior Preferred Stock, certificates representing shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be issued and delivered to the Holder thereof or such Holder’s designee upon presentation and surrender of the certificate evidencing the Senior
Preferred Stock to the Corporation and, if required, the furnishing of appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the payment of all transfer and similar taxes. 
 Section 10. Anti-Dilution Adjustments. 
 (a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to the
following adjustments. 
 (i) Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation pays dividends or other distributions on the
Series B Preferred Stock in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0

	OS1

 OS0
 = the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution. 
 OS1 = the sum
of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution plus the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock constituting such dividend or distribution. 
 For the purposes of this clause (i), the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If
any dividend or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend
or distribution, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
  

 -10- 








 (ii) Subdivisions, Splits and Combination of the Series B Preferred Stock. If the Corporation
subdivides, splits or combines the shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination will be multiplied by the following fraction:

  

	
	 OS0

	OS1

 OS0
 = the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination. 
 OS1 = the
number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after the opening of business on the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination. 
 For the purposes of this clause (ii), the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If any subdivision, split or combination described
in this clause (ii) is announced but the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock are not subdivided, split or combined, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its
decision not to subdivide, split or combine the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such subdivision, split or combination had not been announced. 
 (iii) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights. If the Corporation issues to all holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock rights or warrants
(other than rights or warrants issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan or share purchase plan or other similar plans) entitling them, for a period of up to 60 days from the date of issuance of such rights or warrants, to subscribe for or
purchase the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at less than the Current Market Price (on an As-Converted Basis) on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0 + Y

	OS0 + X

 OS0
 = the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution. 
 X = the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or warrants. 
 Y = the number of
shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the aggregate Current Market Price of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock.

 For the purposes of this clause (iii), the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the
Corporation. The Corporation shall not issue any such rights or warrants in respect of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation. In the event that such rights or warrants described in this clause (iii) are not so


  

 -11- 








 
issued, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights or
warrants, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Series B Preferred Stock are otherwise not
delivered pursuant to such rights or warrants upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price that would then be in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights or
warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock actually delivered. In determining the aggregate offering price payable for such shares of Series B Preferred Stock, there shall be taken into
account any consideration received for such rights or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors). 
 (iv) Debt or Asset Distributions. If the Corporation distributes to all holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other assets
(excluding (a) any dividend or distribution referred to in clause (i) above, (b) any rights or warrants referred to in clause (iii) above, (c) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash, (d) any consideration
payable in connection with a tender or exchange offer made by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, and (e) any dividend of shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a subsidiary of the
Corporation or other business unit in the case of certain spin-off transactions as described below), then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 

 

	
	 SP0 – FMV

	SP0

 SP0
 = the aggregate Current Market Price of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 FMV = the fair market value of the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Series B Preferred Stock on such date as determined by the Board of Directors. 
 In a “spin-off,” where the Corporation makes a distribution to all holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock consisting of capital stock of any class or
series, or similar equity interests of, or relating to, a subsidiary of the Corporation or other business unit, the Conversion Price will be adjusted on the fifteenth Trading Day after the effective date of the distribution by multiplying such
Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such fifteenth Trading Day by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 MP0

	MP0+ MPs

 MP0
 = the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock over the first ten Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day following the effective date of such distribution aggregated for
all Common Stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock. 
  

 -12- 








 MPs = the average of the Closing Prices of the capital stock or equity interests representing the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Series B Preferred Stock over the
first ten Trading Days commencing on and including the fifth Trading Day following the effective date of such distribution, or, if not traded on a national or regional securities exchange or over-the-counter market, the fair market value of the
capital stock or equity interests representing the portion of the distribution applicable to one share of Series B Preferred Stock on such date as determined by the Board of Directors. 
 In the event that such distribution described in this clause (iv) is not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision
not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (v) Cash Distributions. If the Corporation makes a distribution consisting exclusively of cash to all holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, excluding (a) any cash dividend on the Common Stock to the
extent a corresponding cash dividend is paid on the Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 4(b), (b) any cash that is distributed in a Reorganization Event or as part of a “spin-off” referred to in clause
(iv) above, (c) any dividend or distribution in connection with a Liquidation Transaction, and (d) any consideration payable in connection with a tender or exchange offer made by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries, then in
each event, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 SP0 – DIV

	SP0

 SP0
 = the aggregate Closing Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date that is issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 DIV = the amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock of the dividend or distribution. 
 In the event that any distribution described in this clause (v) is not so made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay
such distribution, to the Conversion Price which would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. 
 (vi) Self Tender
Offers and Exchange Offers. If the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries successfully completes a tender or exchange offer for the Series B Preferred Stock where the cash and the value of any other consideration included in the payment per
share of the Series B Preferred Stock exceeds the aggregate Closing Price for the shares of the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock, with such Trading Price being that on the Trading Day immediately
succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, then the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on such immediately succeeding Trading Day will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0 x SP0

	AC + (SP0 x OS1)

  

 -13- 








 SP0 = the aggregate Closing Price for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of one share of Series B Preferred Stock, with such Trading Price being that on the Trading Day
immediately succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer. 
 OS0 = the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, including any shares
validly tendered and not withdrawn. 
 OS1
= the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after the expiration of the tender or exchange offer and after taking into account the shares purchased pursuant thereto.

 AC = the aggregate cash and fair market value of the other consideration payable in the tender or exchange offer, as determined by the Board of Directors.

 In the event that the Corporation, or one of its subsidiaries, is obligated to purchase shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to any such tender
offer or exchange offer, but the Corporation, or such subsidiary, is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be such Conversion
Price that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made with respect to such shares. 
 (vii) Rights
Plans. To the extent that the Corporation has a rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on the Mandatory Conversion Date, upon conversion of any shares of the Senior Preferred Stock, Holders will receive, in addition to the shares
of Series B Preferred Stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless, prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock, in which case the Conversion Price will be adjusted at the time of separation
as if the Corporation had made a distribution to all holders of the Series B Preferred Stock as described in clause (iv) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 
 (b) The Corporation may, with the consent of Holders of a majority of the Senior Preferred Stock, make such decreases in the Conversion Price, in
addition to any other decreases required by this Section 10, if the Board of Directors deems it advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of the Series B Preferred Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of
shares of Series B Preferred Stock (or issuance of rights or warrants to acquire shares of Series B Preferred Stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason. 
 (c) (i) All adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10 of a cent. No adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be
required if such adjustment would be less than $0.01; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided
further that on the Mandatory Conversion Date adjustments to the Conversion Price will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which has not been taken into account before such date. 
  

 -14- 








 (ii) No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if Holders may participate in the transaction
that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment, as a result of holding the Senior Preferred Stock (including without limitation pursuant to Section 4(b)), without having to convert the Senior Preferred Stock, as if they held the full
number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock into which a share of the Senior Preferred Stock may then be converted. 
 (iii) The Applicable
Conversion Price shall not be adjusted: 
 (A) upon the issuance of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock pursuant to any
present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Corporation’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Series B Preferred Stock under any plan; 
 (B) upon the issuance of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present
or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries; 
 (C) upon
the issuance of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date shares of the Senior Preferred Stock were first issued and
not substantially amended thereafter; 
 (D) for a change in the par value or no par value of Series B Preferred Stock; or 
 (E) for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Senior Preferred Stock. 
 (d) Whenever the Conversion Price is to be adjusted in accordance with Section 10(a) or Section 10(b), the Corporation shall: (i) compute the Conversion Price in accordance with
Section 10(a) or Section 10(b), taking into account the one percent threshold set forth in Section 10(c); (ii) as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the
Conversion Price pursuant to Section 10(a) or Section 10(b), taking into account the one percent threshold set forth in Section 10(c) (or if the Corporation is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable
after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event; and (iii) as soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price in accordance with
Section 10(a) or Section 10(b), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth
the revised Conversion Price. 
  

 -15- 








 Section 11. Reorganization Events. 
 (a) In the event of and only if such events are not a Fundamental Change: 
 (i) any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into another Person, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another
Person; 
 (ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the
Corporation, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person; 
 (iii) any reclassification of the Common Stock including into securities other than the Common Stock; or 
 (iv) any statutory exchange of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for securities of another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition); 
 (any such event specified in this Section 11(a), a “Reorganization Event”); each share of Senior Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall remain
outstanding but shall become convertible, when and if convertible pursuant to the terms hereof, into the kind of securities, cash and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by the holder (excluding the counterparty to the
Reorganization Event or an affiliate of such counterparty) of that number of shares of Common Stock (on an As-Converted Basis) into which the share of Senior Preferred Stock would then be convertible assuming receipt of all Stockholder Approvals
(such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property”). 
 (b) In the event that holders of the shares of
Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such Reorganization Event, the consideration that the Holders are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the types and amounts of consideration received by the
majority of the holders of the shares of Common Stock that affirmatively make an election. The amount of Exchange Property receivable upon conversion of any Senior Preferred Stock in accordance with Section 8 shall be determined based
upon the Conversion Price in effect on the Mandatory Conversion Date. 
 (c) The above provisions of this Section 11 shall
similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Corporation (or any successor) received by the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock in any such
Reorganization Event. 
 (d) The Corporation (or any successor) shall, within 20 days of the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide
written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this
Section 11.

 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11 or otherwise in this
Certificate of Designations, the Corporation shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change unless such agreement (i) entitles Holders to receive, the securities, cash and other property that such Holders
would have been entitled to receive upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation pursuant to Section 5, or (ii) in each case, subject to obtaining the required consent specified in Section 5(c), (1)
the Senior Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the
surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and (2) such Senior Preferred Stock remaining outstanding
or such preference securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers
of the Senior Preferred Stock, taken as a whole. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit the Corporation from entering into or consummating a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change; provided, that the Senior Preferred
Stock is treated as set forth in the preceding sentence. 
 Section 12. Voting Rights. 
 (a) Holders of the Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote, on an As-Converted Basis, with holders of the Common Stock on all matters that such
holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote upon, provided, that the votes attributable to such shares with respect to any Holder shall automatically be reduced, (i) pro rata amongst all Holders, such that the total voting power of all of
the shares of Senior Preferred Stock is not more than 19.99% of the total voting power of the outstanding Common Stock on the date of issuance of the Senior Preferred Stock and (ii) pro rata amongst Holders included in any “person”
or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) with such Holder, and in making any such pro rata determination, taking into account any other Capital Stock beneficially owned by such Holders, so
that no “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), is or becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act), except that for purposes
of this clause, such person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person or group has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time),
directly or indirectly, of more than forty-nine percent (49%) of the total voting power of the Voting Stock. The voting rights set forth in this Section 12(a) shall be interpreted consistent with the definition of “Change of
Control” set forth in the indentures governing the Corporation’s public notes, outstanding on the date hereof, such that a “Change of Control” shall not occur as a result of the voting rights of any Holders of the Senior
Preferred Stock (and, for this purpose, taking into account any other Holders included in the same “person” or “group” as such Holder and any other Capital Stock beneficially owned by such Holder, including any other Holders
included in the same “person” or “group”). For the avoidance of doubt, such determination of total voting power of the Voting Stock shall include all Capital Stock beneficially owned, and not just the Senior Preferred Stock.

 (b) So long as any shares of Senior Preferred Stock are outstanding, the vote or consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of
Senior Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, voting as a single class with all other classes and series of Parity Securities having similar voting rights then outstanding and with each series or class having a number of votes proportionate to the
aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding shares of such class or series, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any meeting called for the purpose, will be necessary for effecting any of the
following actions, whether or not such approval is required by Delaware law: 
 (i) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of
the Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate of Designations, or the Corporation’s bylaws (whether by merger, consolidation, business combination or otherwise) that would alter or change the voting powers, preferences or special rights of
the Senior Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely; 
 (ii) any amendment or alteration of the Certificate of Incorporation including
any certificate of designations (whether by merger, consolidation, business combination or otherwise) to authorize or create, or increase the authorized amount of, any shares of, any Parity Securities or any securities convertible into shares of,
any class or series of the Corporation’s capital stock ranking prior to the Senior Preferred Stock in the payment of dividends or in the distribution of assets in a Liquidation Transaction; or 
 (iii) the consummation of a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Senior Preferred Stock or a merger or consolidation of the
Corporation with 

  

 -17- 








 
another entity, except that Holders will have no separable right to vote under this provision or under Section 251 of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware or otherwise under Delaware law if (x) the Corporation shall have complied with Section 11(e), (y) the transaction shall be a Reorganization Event in which each share of Senior Preferred Stock shall become
convertible into Exchange Property, or (z) in each case, subject to obtaining the required consent specified in Section 5(c) (1) the Senior Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect to
which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the
United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and (2) such Senior Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preference securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers,
taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Senior Preferred Stock, taken as a whole; 
 provided, however, that any increase in the amount of the authorized preferred stock or any securities convertible into preferred stock or the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued
amount, of the Senior Preferred Stock, or any securities convertible into preferred stock ranking equally with and/or junior to the Senior Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends (whether such dividends are cumulative or
non-cumulative) and/or the distribution of assets upon a Liquidation Transaction, will not, in and of itself, be deemed to adversely affect the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Senior Preferred Stock and the Holders will have no
right to vote solely by reason of such an increase, creation or issuance. 
 If an amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or
consolidation described above would adversely affect one or more but not all series of preferred stock with like voting rights (including the Senior Preferred Stock for this purpose), then only the series affected and entitled to vote shall vote as
a class in lieu of all such series of preferred stock. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holders shall not have any voting rights if, at
or prior to the effective time of the act with respect to which such vote would otherwise be required, all outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall have been converted into shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 Section 13. Fractional Shares. 
 (a) No fractional shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be issued as a result of any conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock. 
 (b) In lieu of any fractional share of Series B Preferred Stock otherwise issuable in respect of any mandatory conversion pursuant to Section 8, the Corporation shall pay an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to
the same fraction of the Closing Price of the Common Stock (on an As-Converted Basis) determined as of the second Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Conversion Date. 
 (c) If more than one share of the Senior Preferred Stock is surrendered for conversion at one time by or for the same Holder, the number of full shares
of Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Senior Preferred Stock so surrendered. 
  


 -18- 








 Section 14. Reservation of Capital Stock. 
 (a) Following the receipt of the Stockholder Approvals, the Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued
Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock or shares acquired by the Corporation, solely for issuance upon the conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock as provided in this Certificate of Designations, free from any preemptive or other similar
rights, such number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Senior Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock issuable in respect of Senior Preferred
Stock then outstanding, assuming that the Applicable Conversion Price equaled the Closing Price. For purposes of this Section 14(a), the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all
outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single Holder. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to deliver upon conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock, as herein provided, shares of Series B Preferred Stock acquired by the Corporation
(in lieu of the issuance of authorized and unissued shares of Series B Preferred Stock), so long as any such acquired shares are free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests or encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests
and other encumbrances created by the Holders). 
 (c) All shares of Series B Preferred Stock delivered upon conversion of the Senior
Preferred Stock shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests and other encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances created by
the Holders). 
 (d) Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Senior
Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by,
any governmental authority, and if notwithstanding such efforts the shares of Series B Preferred Stock cannot be delivered in compliance with such laws and regulations, then the Corporation shall not be required to so deliver until it can deliver in
compliance with such laws and regulations. 
 (e) The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that, if at any time the Series B Preferred
Stock shall be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or any other national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Corporation will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange or automated quotation system, list and keep listed, so
long as the Series B Preferred Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, all the Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if the rules of such
exchange or automated quotation system permit the Corporation to defer the listing of such Series B Preferred Stock until the first conversion of 

  

 -19- 








 
Senior Preferred Stock into Series B Preferred Stock in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Corporation covenants to list such Series B Preferred
Stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock in accordance with the requirements of such exchange or automated quotation system at such time. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall require the Corporation to list the Series
B Preferred Stock or the Senior Preferred Stock. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Certificate of Designations to the contrary, in no
event shall the Corporation be required to deliver shares of Series B Preferred Stock upon conversion of the Senior Preferred Stock in excess of 5,000,000 shares (subject to any adjustments to the Conversion Price provided in Section 10)
(the “Aggregate Share Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances will the Corporation be required to deliver cash in lieu of any shares of Series B Preferred Stock otherwise deliverable hereunder in excess of the
Aggregate Share Cap. 
 Section 15. Repurchases of Junior Securities. For as long as the Senior Preferred Stock remains
outstanding, the Corporation shall not redeem, purchase or acquire any of its Junior Securities, other than (i) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions of Junior Securities in connection with any benefit plan or other similar arrangement
with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants or in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan and (ii) conversions into or exchanges for other Junior Securities and
cash solely in lieu of fractional shares of the Junior Securities. 
 Section 16. Replacement Certificates. 
 (a) The Corporation shall replace any mutilated certificate representing any Senior Preferred Stock at the Holder’s expense upon surrender of that
certificate to the Corporation. The Corporation shall replace certificates representing any Senior Preferred Stock that become destroyed, stolen or lost at the Holder’s expense upon delivery to the Corporation of satisfactory evidence that the
certificate has been destroyed, stolen or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Corporation. 
 (b) The Corporation
shall not be required to issue any certificates representing the Senior Preferred Stock on or after the Mandatory Conversion Date. In place of the delivery of a replacement certificate following the Mandatory Conversion Date, the Corporation, upon
delivery of the evidence and indemnity described in clause (a) above, shall deliver the shares of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to the terms of the Senior Preferred Stock formerly evidenced by the certificate.

with respect to which such shares or other securities are issued or delivered were registered, or in respect of any payment to any Person other than a payment to the registered holder thereof, and shall not be required to make any such issuance,
delivery or payment unless and until the Person otherwise entitled to such issuance, delivery or payment has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid

all shares that such person or group has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of greater than forty-nine percent (49%) of the total voting power of the
Voting Stock after giving effect to such conversion. This clause shall be interpreted consistent with the terms of Section 12(a). 
 (b) Mandatory Conversion. Effective as of the consummation (each, a “Mandatory Conversion Date”) of any sale, transfer or other disposition of shares of Series B Preferred Stock by the Investor or its Affiliates to
any Person (other than the Investor or an Affiliate of the Investor) (each an “Investor Transfer”), such transferred shares of Series B Preferred Stock (“Mandatory Conversion Shares”) shall automatically convert
into shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 8(c) (each, a “Mandatory Conversion”). 
 (c) Number of Shares
Upon Conversion. The number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible shall be determined by dividing $1,000 by the Applicable Conversion Price (subject to the conversion procedures of
Section 9 hereof) plus cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 13 hereof. 
 Section 9.
Conversion Procedures. 
 (a) Each Series B Preferred Stock Holder seeking an Optional Conversion shall provide the Corporation
with notice of such conversion and each Holder of Mandatory Conversion Shares shall prior to or promptly upon the consummation of an Investor Transfer provide the Corporation with notice of such conversion (each, a “Notice of
Conversion”). In addition to any information required by applicable law or regulation, the Notice of Conversion with respect to such Holder shall state, as appropriate: 
 (1) Whether such conversion is an Optional Conversion or a Mandatory Conversion; 
 (2) The date on which the optional conversion is to take place (the “Optional Conversion Date”) or the Mandatory Conversion Date, as
applicable; 
 (3) The transferee with respect to Mandatory Conversion Shares; 
  

 -6- 








 (4) The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon conversion of each share of Series B
Preferred Stock held of record by such Holder and subject to an Optional Conversion or Mandatory Conversion; and 
 (5) The place or places
where certificates of Series B Preferred Stock held of record by such Holder are to be surrendered for issuance of certificates representing shares of Common Stock. 
 (b) In the event that some, but not all, of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such Holder, are to be converted pursuant to an Optional Conversion or a Mandatory Conversion, such Holder shall be entitled
to select the shares to be surrendered pursuant to this Section 9 such that, after such surrender, Holder no longer holds shares of Series B Preferred Stock as to which the Optional Conversion or Mandatory Conversion shall have occurred.
In the event that such Holder fails to surrender the required number of shares pursuant to this Section 9 within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Optional Conversion Notice or Mandatory Conversion Notice, the Corporation
shall, by written notice to such Holder, indicate which shares have been converted pursuant to Section 8. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable,
with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock, dividends shall no longer be declared on any such converted share of Series B Preferred Stock and such share of Series B Preferred Stock shall only represent such number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon conversion thereof and shall cease to be outstanding, in each case, subject to the right of the Holder to receive any declared and unpaid dividends on such share to the extent provided in Section 4 and any other
payments to which such Holders is otherwise entitled pursuant to Section 8, Section 11 and Section 13 hereof, as applicable. 
 (c) No allowance or adjustment, except pursuant to Section 10, shall be made in respect of dividends payable to Holders of the Common Stock of record as of any date prior to the close of business on the
Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock. Prior to the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to
any share of Series B Preferred Stock, shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, or other securities issuable upon conversion of such share of Series B Preferred Stock, shall not be deemed outstanding for any purpose, and the Holder
thereof shall have no rights with respect to the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion (including voting rights, rights to respond to tender offers for the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion and rights to
receive any dividends or distributions on the Common Stock or other securities issuable upon conversion) by virtue of holding such share of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (d) Shares of Series B Preferred Stock converted in accordance with this Certificate of Designations, or otherwise reacquired by the Corporation, will resume the status of authorized and unissued preferred stock,
undesignated as to series and available for future issuance. The Corporation may from time-to-time take such appropriate action as may be necessary to reduce the authorized number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (e) The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock and/or cash, securities or other property issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred
Stock shall be treated 

  

 -7- 








 
for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Common Stock and/or securities as of the close of business on the Optional Conversion Date or
Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect thereto. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Common Stock and/or cash, securities or other property (including payments of cash in lieu
of fractional shares) to be issued or paid upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock should be registered or paid or the manner in which such shares should be delivered, the Corporation shall be entitled to register and deliver such
shares, and make such payment, in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Corporation. 
 (f) On the Optional
Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, with respect to any share of Series B Preferred Stock as to which the Optional Conversion or Mandatory Conversion shall have occurred, certificates representing shares of Common Stock
shall be issued and delivered to the Holder thereof or such Holder’s designee upon presentation and surrender of the certificate evidencing such Series B Preferred Stock to the Corporation and, if required, the furnishing of appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents and the payment of all transfer and similar taxes. 
 Section 10. Anti-Dilution
Adjustments. 
 (a) The Conversion Price shall be subject to the following adjustments: 
 (1) Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Corporation pays dividends or other distributions on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock,
then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0

	OS1

 OS0
 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution. 
 OS1 = the sum
of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution plus the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or distribution. 
 For the purposes of this clause (i), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If any dividend
or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or
distribution, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (2)
Subdivisions, Splits and Combination of the Common Stock. If the Corporation subdivides, splits or combines the shares of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision,
split or combination will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0

	OS1

  

 -8- 








 OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination. 
 OS1 = the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the opening of business on the effective date of such share subdivision, split or combination. 
 For the purposes of this clause (ii), the number of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. If any subdivision, split or combination described in this clause (ii) is
announced but the outstanding shares of Common Stock are not subdivided, split or combined, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to subdivide, split or combine
the outstanding shares of Common Stock, to such Conversion Price that would be in effect if such subdivision, split or combination had not been announced. 
 (3) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights. If the Corporation issues to all Holders of the shares of Common Stock (and does not make the equivalent issuance to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock) rights or
warrants (other than rights or warrants issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan or share purchase plan or other similar plans) entitling them, for a period of up to sixty (60) days from the date of issuance of such rights or warrants,
to subscribe for or purchase the shares of Common Stock at less than the Current Market Price on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants, then the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior
to the Ex-Date for such distribution will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0+ Y

	OS0 + X

 OS0
 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Date for such distribution. 
 X
= the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or warrants. 
 Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate
price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the Current Market Price. 
 For the purposes of this clause (iii), the number of shares of
Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares acquired by the Corporation. The Corporation shall not issue any such rights or warrants in respect of shares of the Common Stock acquired by the Corporation. In the event that such
rights or warrants described in this clause (iii) are not so issued, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights or warrants, to the
Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such
rights or warrants upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to such Conversion Price that would then be in effect had 

  

 -9- 








 
the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
delivered. In determining the aggregate offering price payable for such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be
determined by the Board of Directors). 
 (4) Self Tender Offers and Exchange Offers. If the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries
successfully completes a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock (and does not make the equivalent offer to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock) where the cash and the value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of
the Common Stock exceeds the Closing Price per share of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, then the Conversion Price in effect at the close of business on such immediately
succeeding Trading Day will be multiplied by the following fraction: 
  

	
	 OS0 x SP0

	AC + (SP0 x OS1)

 SP0
 = the Closing Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately succeeding the expiration of the tender or exchange offer. 
 OS0 = the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the expiration of the tender or exchange offer, including any shares validly tendered and not withdrawn. 
 OS1= the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the expiration of the tender or exchange offer. 
 AC = the aggregate cash and fair market
value of the other consideration payable in the tender or exchange offer, as determined by the Board of Directors. 
 In the event that the Corporation, or
one of its subsidiaries, is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Corporation, or such subsidiary, is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or
all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Price shall be readjusted to be such Conversion Price that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made. 
 (5) Rights Plans. To the extent that the Corporation has a rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on the Optional Conversion Date
or the Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, upon conversion of any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, Holders will receive, in addition to the shares of Common Stock, the rights under the rights plan, unless, prior to the Optional
Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock, in which case the Conversion Price will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Corporation had made a distribution to
all Holders of the Common Stock as described in clause (3) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 
  


 -10- 








 (b) All adjustments to the Conversion Price shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10 of a cent. No
adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be required if such adjustment would be less than $0.01; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this subparagraph are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account
in any subsequent adjustment; provided further that on the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, adjustments to the Conversion Price will be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward and which
has not been taken into account before such date. 
 (c) No adjustment to the Conversion Price shall be made if Holders may participate in
the transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment, as a result of holding the Series B Preferred Stock (including without limitation pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof), without having to convert the Series B Preferred Stock, as if
they held the full number of shares of Common Stock into which a share of the Series B Preferred Stock may then be converted. 
 (d) The
Applicable Conversion Price shall not be adjusted: 
 (1) 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 Corporation’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan; 
 (2) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director
or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries; 
 (3) upon the issuance of any shares of
Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the date shares of the Series B Preferred Stock were first issued and not substantially amended thereafter; 
 (4) for a change in the par value or no par value of Common Stock; or 
 (5) for accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (e) Whenever the Conversion Price is
to be adjusted in accordance with Section 10(a), the Corporation shall: (i) compute the Conversion Price in accordance with Section 10(a), taking into account the one percent threshold set forth in
Section 10(b); (ii) as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to Section 10(a) taking into account the one percent threshold set forth in
Section 10(b) (or if the Corporation is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event; and (iii) as
soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price in accordance with Section 10(a), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which
the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and setting forth the revised Conversion Price.

 Section 11. Reorganization Events. 
 (a) In the event of: 
 (1) any consolidation
or merger of the Corporation with or into another Person, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person; 
 (2) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, in each case
pursuant to which the Common Stock will be converted into cash, securities or other property of the Corporation or another Person; 
 (3)
any reclassification of the Common Stock into securities including securities other than the Common Stock; or 
 (4) any statutory exchange
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for securities of another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition); 
 (any such event
specified in this Section 11(a), a “Reorganization Event”); each share of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall remain outstanding but shall become convertible into the
kind of securities, cash and other property receivable in such Reorganization Event by the holder (excluding the counterparty to the Reorganization Event or an affiliate of such counterparty) of that number of shares of Common Stock into which the
share of Series B Preferred Stock would then be convertible (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property”). 
 (b) In the event that holders of the shares of Common Stock have the opportunity to elect the form of consideration to be received in such transaction, the consideration that the Holders are entitled to receive shall be deemed to be the
types and amounts of consideration received by the majority of the holders of the shares of Common Stock that affirmatively make an election. The amount of Exchange Property receivable upon conversion of any Series B Preferred Stock in accordance
with Section 8 shall be determined based upon the Conversion Price in effect on the Optional Conversion Date. 
 (c) The above
provisions of this Section 11 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of Section 10 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Corporation (or any successor) received by the holders
of the Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event. 
 (d) The Corporation (or any successor) shall, within twenty (20) days of the
occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such
notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 11. 
  

 -12- 








 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11 or otherwise in this
Certificate of Designations, the Corporation shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change unless such agreement (i) entitles Holders to receive, on an as-converted basis, the securities, cash and other
property receivable in such transaction by a holder of shares of Common Stock that was not the counterparty to such transaction or an affiliate of such other party as described in Section 11(a), (ii) provides that each share of Series B
Preferred Stock shall be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock as provided in Section 8(c) or (iii) provides that (1) the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with
respect to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preference securities of the surviving or resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws
of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, and (2) such Series B Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preference securities, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting
powers, taken as a whole, as are not materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series B Preferred Stock, taken as a whole. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall
prohibit the Corporation from entering into or consummating a transaction constituting a Fundamental Change provided that the Series B Preferred Stock is treated as set forth in the preceding sentence. 
 Section 12. Voting Rights. 
 (a) The Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock vote together with the Holders of Common Stock on all matters upon which the Holders of Common Stock are entitled to vote. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to such
number of votes as the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible at the time of the record date for any such vote, provided, that the votes attributable to such shares with respect to
any Holder shall be automatically reduced pro rata amongst Holders included in any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) with such Holder, and in making any such
pro rata determination, taking into account any other Capital Stock beneficially owned by such Holders, so that no “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), is or becomes
the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the Exchange Act), except that for purposes of this clause, such person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all shares that any such person or group
has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than forty-nine percent (49%) of the total voting power of the Voting Stock. The voting rights set forth
in this Section 12(a) shall be interpreted consistent with the definition of “Change of Control” set forth in the indentures governing the Corporation’s public notes, outstanding on the date hereof, such that a “Change of
Control” shall not occur as a result of the voting rights of any Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock (and, for this purpose, taking into account any other Holders included in the same “person” or “group” as such Holder
and any other Capital Stock beneficially owned by such Holder, including any other Holders included in the same “person” or “group”). For the avoidance of doubt, such determination of total voting power of the Voting Stock shall
include all Capital Stock beneficially owned, and not just the Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (b) So long as any shares of Series B Preferred
Stock are outstanding, the vote or consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock at the time outstanding, voting as a single class, given in person or by proxy, either in writing without a meeting or by vote at any
meeting called for the purpose, will be necessary for effecting or validating any of the following actions, whether or not such approval is required by Delaware law: 
 (1) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, this Certificate of Designations, or the Corporation’s bylaws (whether by merger, consolidation, business combination
or otherwise) that would alter or change the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely; or 
 (2) the consummation of a binding share exchange or reclassification involving the Common Stock or a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with another entity, except that Holders will have no separable right to
vote under this provision or under Section 251 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or otherwise under Delaware law if (x) the Corporation shall have complied with Section 11(e), (y) the transaction shall be
a Reorganization Event in which each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible into the Exchange Property, or (z) (1) the Series B Preferred Stock remains outstanding or, in the case of any such merger or consolidation with respect
to which the Corporation is not the surviving or resulting entity, is converted into or exchanged for preference securities or common stock of the surviving or 

  

 -13- 








 
resulting entity or its ultimate parent, that is an entity organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia, and (2) such Series B Preferred Stock remaining outstanding or such preference securities or common stock, as the case may be, have such rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers, taken as a whole, as are not
materially less favorable to the Holders thereof than the rights, preferences, privileges and voting powers of the Series B Preferred Stock, taken as a whole; 
 provided, however, that any increase in the amount of the authorized preferred stock or any securities convertible into preferred stock or the creation and issuance, or an increase in the authorized or issued amount, of any series of
preferred stock, or any securities convertible into preferred stock ranking junior to, equally with and/or senior to the Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the payment of dividends (whether such dividends are cumulative or non-cumulative)
and/or the distribution of assets upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, will not, in and of itself, be deemed to adversely affect the voting powers, preferences or special rights of the Series B Preferred Stock and,
notwithstanding Section 251 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any other provision of Delaware law, Holders will have no right to vote solely by reason of such an increase, creation or issuance. 
 If an amendment, alteration, repeal, share exchange, reclassification, merger or consolidation described above would adversely affect one or more but not all series of
preferred stock with like voting rights (including the Series B Preferred Stock for this purpose), then only the series affected and entitled to vote shall vote as a class in lieu of all such series of preferred stock. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holders shall not have any voting rights if, at or prior to the effective time of the act with respect to which such
vote would otherwise be required, all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have been converted into shares of Common Stock. 
 Section 13. Fractional Shares. 
 (a) No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued as a result of any
conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. 
 (b) In lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock otherwise issuable in respect of any
conversion pursuant to Section 8 hereof, the Corporation shall pay an amount in cash (computed to the nearest cent) equal to the same fraction of the Closing Price of the Common Stock determined as of the second Trading Day immediately
preceding the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable. 
 (c) If more than one share of the Series B Preferred
Stock is surrendered for conversion at one time by or for the same Holder, the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock so
surrendered. 
 Section 14. Reservation of Common Stock. 
 (a) Following the receipt of the Stockholder Approvals, the Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued
Common Stock or 

  

 -14- 








 
shares acquired by the Corporation, solely for issuance upon the conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock as provided in this Certificate of
Designations, free from any preemptive or other similar rights, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding, assuming that the
Applicable Conversion Price equaled the Conversion Price on the Effective Date. For purposes of this Section 14(a), the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be deliverable upon the conversion of all outstanding shares of Series B
Preferred Stock shall be computed as if at the time of computation all such outstanding shares were held by a single Holder. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall be entitled to deliver upon conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, as herein provided, shares of Common Stock acquired by the Corporation (in lieu of the issuance of authorized and
unissued shares of Common Stock), so long as any such acquired shares are free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests or encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances created by the Holders).

 (c) All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests and other encumbrances (other than liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances created by the Holders). 
 (d) Prior to the delivery of any securities that the Corporation shall be obligated to deliver upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, the
Corporation shall use its reasonable best efforts to comply with all federal and state laws and regulations thereunder requiring the registration of such securities with, or any approval of or consent to the delivery thereof by, any governmental
authority, and if notwithstanding such efforts the shares of Common Stock cannot be delivered in compliance with such laws and regulations, then the Corporation shall not be required to so deliver until it can deliver in compliance with such laws
and regulations. 
 (e) The Corporation hereby covenants and agrees that, if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on the New York
Stock Exchange or any other national securities exchange or automated quotation system, the Corporation will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange or automated quotation system, list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so
listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, all the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock; provided, however, that if the rules of such exchange or automated quotation system permit the Corporation
to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first conversion of Series B Preferred Stock into Common Stock in accordance with the provisions hereof, the Corporation covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B
Preferred Stock in accordance with the requirements of such exchange or automated quotation system at such time. 
 (f) Notwithstanding
anything in this Certificate of Designations to the contrary, in no event shall each share of the Series B Preferred Stock be convertible into more than 327.86885 shares of Common Stock (subject to any adjustments to the Conversion Price provided in
Section 10) (the “Aggregate Share Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances will the Corporation be required to deliver cash in lieu of any shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable hereunder in excess
of the Aggregate Share Cap. 
  

 -15- 








 Section 15. Replacement Certificates. 
 (a) The Corporation shall replace any mutilated certificate representing Series B Preferred Stock at the Holder’s expense upon surrender of that
certificate to the Corporation. The Corporation shall replace certificates representing Series B Preferred Stock that become destroyed, stolen or lost at the Holder’s expense upon delivery to the Corporation of satisfactory evidence that the
certificate has been destroyed, stolen or lost, together with any indemnity that may be required by the Corporation. 
 (b) The Corporation
shall not be required to issue any certificates representing the Series B Preferred Stock on or after the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, as applicable, other than with respect to shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were
not converted. In place of the delivery of a replacement certificate following the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date, the Corporation, upon delivery of the evidence and indemnity described in clause (a) above, shall deliver
the shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock formerly evidenced by the certificate. 
 Section 16. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) All notices referred to herein shall be in writing, and, unless otherwise
specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail (unless first-class mail shall be
specifically permitted for such notice under the terms of this Certificate of Designations) with postage prepaid, addressed: (i) if to the Corporation, to: Standard Pacific Corp., 15326 Alton Parkway, Irvine, CA 92618, or
(ii) if to any Holder, to such Holder at the address of such Holder as listed in the stock record books of the Corporation, or (iii) to such other address as the Corporation or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by
notice similarly given. 
 (b) The Corporation shall pay any and all stock transfer and documentary stamp taxes that may be payable in
respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Series B Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock or other securities issued on account of Series B Preferred Stock pursuant hereto or certificates representing such shares or securities. The
Corporation shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of shares of Series B Preferred Stock or Common Stock or other securities in a name other than that
in which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock with respect to which such shares or other securities are issued or delivered were registered, or in respect of any payment to any Person other than a payment to the registered Holder thereof, and
shall not be required to make any such issuance, delivery or payment unless and until the Person otherwise entitled to such issuance, delivery or payment has paid to the Corporation the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction
of the Corporation, that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(whether pursuant to Section 3(A)(ii) or otherwise) to subject the Warrantholder to “short-swing” profit disgorgement pursuant to

free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by the Warrantholder or taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously therewith). The Company agrees that the Shares so issued will be deemed to have been

transfer books of the Company may then be closed or certificates representing such Shares may not be actually delivered on such date. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, out of its authorized but unissued Subject Stock, solely

sole expense, the listing of the Shares and other securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, subject to issuance or notice of issuance on all stock exchanges on which the Subject Stock is then listed or traded and (B) use commercially
reasonable efforts to maintain a listing of such Shares after issuance. Nothing contained herein shall require the Company to list such Subject Stock if it is not then listed on a stock exchange. The Company will use reasonable best efforts to
ensure that the Shares may be issued without violation of any law or regulation applicable to the Company or of any requirement of any securities exchange (if any) on which the Shares are listed or traded. 
 5. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional Shares or scrip representing fractional Shares shall be issued upon any exercise of this Warrant.

 6. No Rights as Stockholders; Transfer Books. This Warrant does not entitle the Warrantholder to any voting rights or other rights as a
stockholder of the Company prior to the date of exercise hereof. The Company will at no time close its transfer books against transfer of this Warrant in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.

duly authorized attorney, and a new warrant shall be made and delivered by the Company, of the same tenor and date as this Warrant but registered in the name of one or more transferees, upon surrender of this Warrant, duly endorsed, to the office or

Warrantholder to the Company, for a new warrant or warrants of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same aggregate number of Shares. The Company shall maintain a registry showing the name and address of the Warrantholder as the
registered holder of this Warrant. This Warrant may be surrendered for exchange or exercise, in accordance with its terms, at the office of the Company, and the Company shall be entitled to rely in all respects, prior to written notice to the
contrary, upon such registry. 
 10. Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or, in the case of
any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company shall make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant, a new warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same
aggregate number of Shares as provided for in such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant. 
 11. Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays,
etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding day that is
a Business Day. 
 12. Rule 144 Information. The Company covenants that it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to timely file
all reports and other documents required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the
request of any Warrantholder, use all commercially reasonable efforts to make publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and it will use commercially reasonable efforts to take
such further action as any Warrantholder may reasonably request, in each case to the extent required from time to time to enable such holder to sell the Warrants without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions
provided by (A) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or (B) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the written request of any Warrantholder, the Company will deliver

 13. Adjustments and Other Rights. The Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows; provided that no single event shall be subject to adjustment under more than one subsection of this Section 13 so as to result in duplication:

 (A) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or Combinations. If the Company shall (i) declare a dividend or make a
distribution on its Subject Stock in shares of Subject Stock or other security of the Company, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Subject Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify the
outstanding Subject Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or
reclassification shall be proportionately adjusted so that the Warrantholder after such date shall be entitled to purchase the number of shares of Subject Stock which such holder would have owned or been entitled to receive after such date had this
Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such date. In such event, the Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification shall be
adjusted to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance giving
rise to this adjustment by (y) the new number of Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant determined pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (B) Other Distributions. In case the Company shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of its Subject Stock (i) of shares of any class other than its Subject Stock,
(ii) of evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any Company Subsidiary, (iii) of assets (excluding Ordinary Cash Dividends, and dividends or distributions referred to in Section 13(A)), or (iv) of rights or warrants, in
each such case, the Exercise Price in effect prior thereto shall be reduced immediately thereafter to the price determined by multiplying such Exercise Price by a fraction determined by dividing (x) an amount equal to the difference resulting
from (1) the number of shares of Subject Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price on such record date, less (2) the fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors) of said shares
or evidences of indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to be so distributed, by (y) the number of shares of Subject Stock outstanding on such record date multiplied by the Current Market Price on such record date; such adjustment shall be
made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. In such event, the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of (1) the number of Shares
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence. In the event that such distribution is not so made, the Exercise Price and the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of
Directors determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants, as the case may be, to the Exercise Price that would then be in effect and the number of Shares that would then be issuable upon exercise of
this Warrant if such record date had not been fixed. 
  

 -9- 








 (C) Certain Repurchases of Subject Stock. In case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of
Subject Stock, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the effective date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be
(i) the product of (x) the number of shares of Subject Stock outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Current Market Price of a share of Subject Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the first
public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (i) the
number of shares of Subject Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Subject Stock so repurchased and (ii) the Current Market Price per share of Subject Stock on the trading day immediately
preceding the first public announcement of such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of shares of Subject Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (x) the product of
(1) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant before such adjustment, and (2) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (y) the new Exercise Price
determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (D) Business Combinations. Subject to the Warrantholder’s
rights in Section 14 of this Warrant, in case of any Business Combination or reclassification of Subject Stock (other than a reclassification of Subject Stock referred to in Section 13(A), any Shares issued or issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant after the date of such Business Combination or reclassification, shall be exchangeable for the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which the Shares issuable (at the time of such
Business Combination or reclassification) upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled upon such Business Combination or reclassification; and in any such case, if
necessary, the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Warrantholder shall be appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be, to any shares of stock or other securities or
property thereafter deliverable on the exercise of this Warrant. In determining the kind and amount of stock, securities or the property receivable upon exercise of this Warrant after consummation of such Business Combination, if the holders of
Subject Stock have the right to elect the kind or amount of consideration receivable upon consummation of such Business Combination, then the Warrantholder shall have the right to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the kind and amount of
consideration received by the majority of holders of the Subject Stock that affirmatively made an election in connection with such Business Combination. 
 (E) Rounding of Calculations; Minimum Adjustments. All calculations under this Section 13 shall be made to the nearest one-tenth (1/10th) of a cent or to the nearest one-hundredth
(1/100th) of a share, as the case may be. Any provision of this Section 13 to the contrary notwithstanding, no adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable shall be made if the
amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01 or one-tenth (1/10th) of a share of Subject Stock, but any such amount shall be carried forward and an adjustment with respect thereto shall be made at the time of and together with any
subsequent adjustment which, together with such amount and any other amount or amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $0.01 or 1/10th of a share of Subject Stock, or more. 
  

 -10- 








 (F) Timing of Issuance of Additional Subject Stock Upon Certain Adjustments. In any case in which
the provisions of this Section 13 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for an event involving the issuance of additional Subject Stock, the Company may defer until the occurrence of
such event (i) issuing to the Warrantholder of this Warrant exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the additional shares of Subject Stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such
event over and above the shares of Subject Stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (ii) paying to such Warrantholder any amount of cash in lieu of a fractional share of Subject Stock; provided,
however, that the Company upon request shall deliver to such Warrantholder a due bill or other appropriate instrument evidencing such Warrantholder’s right to receive such additional shares, and such cash, upon the occurrence of the event
requiring such adjustment. 
 (G) Adjustment for Unspecified Actions. If the Company takes any action affecting the Subject Stock,
other than actions described in this Section 13, which in the opinion of the Board of Directors would materially adversely affect the exercise rights of the Warrantholder, the Exercise Price for the Warrant and/or the number of Shares
received upon exercise of the Warrant shall be adjusted for the Warrantholder’s benefit, to the extent permitted by law, in such manner, and at such time, as such Board of Directors after consultation with the Warrantholder shall reasonably
determine to be equitable in the circumstances. Failure of the Board of Directors to provide for any such adjustment will be evidence that the Board of Directors has determined that it is equitable to make no such adjustments in the circumstances.

 (H) Statement Regarding Adjustments. Whenever the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is exercisable
shall be adjusted as provided in Section 13, the Company shall forthwith file at the principal office of the Company a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment and the Exercise Price that shall be in
effect and the number of Shares into which this Warrant shall be exercisable after such adjustment, and the Company shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by mail, first class postage prepaid, to each Warrantholder at the address
appearing in the Company’s records. 
 (I) Notice of Adjustment Event. In the event that the Company shall propose to take any
action of the type described in this Section 13 (but only if the action of the type described in this Section 13 would result in an adjustment in the Exercise Price or the number of Shares into which this Warrant is
exercisable or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon exercise of this Warrant), the Company shall give notice to the Warrantholder, in the manner set forth in Section 13(H), which notice shall specify the
record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the approximate date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the
Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at
least ten (10) days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least fifteen (15) days prior to the taking of such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall
not affect the legality or validity of any such action. 
  

 -11- 








 (J) No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its certificate of incorporation or
through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed
hereunder by the Company, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Warrant and in taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Warrantholder
hereunder. 
 (K) Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment. As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which
would require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 13, the Company shall take any action which may be necessary, including obtaining regulatory, New York Stock Exchange or stockholder approvals or exemptions, in order that the Company
may thereafter validly and legally issue as fully paid and nonassessable all shares of Subject Stock that the Warrantholder is entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this Section 13. 
 (L) Adjustment Rules. Any adjustments pursuant to this Section 13 shall be made successively whenever an event referred to herein
shall occur. If an adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder would reduce the Exercise Price to an amount below par value of the Subject Stock, then such adjustment in Exercise Price made hereunder shall reduce the Exercise Price to the par value
of the Subject Stock. 
 14. Fundamental Change. 
 (A) Upon the occurrence of a Preliminary Fundamental Change or Fundamental Change, the Warrantholder may deliver written notice thereof to the Company and, upon occurrence of a Fundamental Change may cause the Company
to purchase any Warrant, in whole or in part, acquired hereunder that the Warrantholder then holds, at the higher of (i) the fair market value of the Warrant and (ii) a valuation based on a computation of the option value of the Warrant
using Black-Scholes calculation methods and making the assumptions described in the Black-Scholes methodology described in Exhibit A. Payment by the Company to the Warrantholder of such purchase price shall be due upon the occurrence of the
Fundamental Change, subject to the mechanics described in the last paragraph of Exhibit A. At the election of the Company, all or any portion of such purchase price may be paid in cash or shares of Subject Stock valued at the Current
Market Price of a share of Subject Stock as of (A) the last trading day prior to the date on which this payment occurs or (B) the first date of the announcement of such Preliminary Fundamental Change or Fundamental Change (whichever is
less), so long as such payment does not cause the Company to fail to comply with applicable New York Stock Exchange requirements or the requirements of any other Governmental Authority. To the extent that a payment in shares of Subject Stock would
cause the Company to fail to comply with New York Stock Exchange rules or result in the Warrantholder being in violation of such limitations, once the maximum number of shares of Subject Stock that would not result in the contravention of such rules
has been paid, the remainder of such purchase price may be paid, at the option of the Company and provided the issuance of securities would not cause the Warrantholder to be in violation of such limitations, in the form of cash or equity securities
of the Company having a fair market value on a fully-distributed basis equal to the value (determined as provided above) of the shares of Subject Stock that would have been issued to the Warrantholder in the absence of the limitation described in
this sentence. The Company agrees that it will not take any action resulting in a Preliminary Fundamental Change or Fundamental Change in the absence of definitive documentation providing for such election right of the Warrantholder pursuant to this
Section 14. 
 (B) After the Mandatory Conversion Date, upon the occurrence of a Preliminary Warrant Ride-Through Transaction or
Warrant Ride-Through Transaction, the Company may deliver written notice thereof to the Warrantholder and, upon occurrence of a Warrant Ride-Through Transaction, may cause this Warrant to become exercisable (A) for such number of shares of common
stock of the Acquirer determined by dividing (i) the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Shares would have been convertible immediately prior to the consummation of such Warrant Ride-Through Transaction multiplied by the cash price to be
paid for each share of such Common Stock in the Warrant Ride-Through Transaction (or if any consideration other than cash is to be paid, the fair market value of such consideration as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith) (such cash
price plus any other consideration, the “Common Consideration”) by (ii) the average Current Market Price of the Acquirer’s common stock over the ten (10) trading days prior to the first public announcement of such Warrant
Ride-Through Transaction (the “Acquirer Price”) and (B) at an Exercise Price of equal to the Exercise Price immediately prior to the consummation of such Warrant Ride-Through Transaction divided by the number of shares of Common
Stock then issuable upon conversion of a share of Series B Preferred Stock multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the Acquirer Price and the denominator of which is the Common Consideration; provided that if, in any such Warrant
Ride-Through Transaction, at least 75% of the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of such Warrant Ride-Through Transaction is converted into common stock of the Acquirer, the terms of this Section 14(B) shall not apply and
this Warrant shall continue to be exercisable in accordance with its terms subject to adjustment as set forth in Section 13(D). Prior to the consummation of any Warrant Ride-Through Transaction, the Company shall provide written notice to the
Warrantholder setting forth the facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise
of this Warrant. The Company agrees that it will not take any action resulting in a Preliminary Warrant Ride-Through Transaction or Warrant Ride-Through Transaction in the absence of definitive documentation providing for adjustments to this Warrant
and the assumption by the Acquirer of the Company’s obligations under this Warrant pursuant to this Section 14(B). 
                 (C) Nothwithstanding Section 14(A) or 14(B), if a Mandatory Conversion Date has occurred, then the terms of Section 14 shall expire and no
longer be of any force and effect following the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the Closing of the Rights Offering (as defined in the Investment Agreement), or (ii) March 15, 2011.

 15. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be binding upon any successors or assigns of the Company.
This Warrant shall constitute a contract under the laws of New York and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws principles. 
 16. Attorneys’ Fees. In any litigation, arbitration or court proceeding between the Company and the Warrantholder as the holder of this
Warrant relating hereto, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in enforcing this Warrant. 
 17. Amendments. This Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term of this Warrant may be waived only with the written consent of the Company and the Warrantholder. 
 18. Notices. All notices hereunder shall be in writing and shall be effective (A) on the day on which delivered if delivered personally or
transmitted by telecopier with evidence of receipt, (B) one Business Day after the date on which the same is delivered to a nationally recognized overnight courier service with evidence of receipt, or (C) five Business Days after the date
on which the same is deposited, postage prepaid, in the U.S. mail, sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to the party to be notified at the address indicated below for the Company, or at the address for the
Warrantholder set forth in the registry maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 9, or at such other address and/or telecopy number and/or to the attention of such other Person as the Company or the Warrantholder may designate by
ten-day advance written notice. 
 19. Prohibited Actions. 
 (A) Notwithstanding anything in this Warrant to the contrary, in no event shall the Company be required to deliver upon exercise, exchange, termination,
repurchase or other similar events of this Warrant in excess of 1,500,000 Shares (subject to any adjustments to the number of Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant provided in Section 13) (the “Aggregate Share
Cap”). For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstances will the Company be required to deliver cash in lieu of any Shares otherwise deliverable hereunder in excess of the Aggregate Share Cap. 
 (B) The Company agrees that it will not take any action which would entitle the Warrantholder to an adjustment of the Exercise Price if the total number
of shares of Subject Stock issuable after such action upon exercise of this Warrant, together with all shares of Subject Stock then outstanding and all shares of Subject Stock then issuable upon the exercise of all outstanding options, warrants,
conversion and other rights, would exceed the total number of shares of Subject Stock then authorized by its certificate of incorporation. 
 20. Entire Agreement. This Warrant and the forms attached hereto, and the Stockholder Agreement, contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous
arrangements or undertakings with respect thereto.

Common Stock for the ten (10) trading day period ending on the day preceding the date of the Preliminary Fundamental Change and (ii) the number of Acquiror’s shares being offered for one share of Subject Stock and (2) in the event of a
fixed value transaction, the value offered by the Acquiror for one share of Subject Stock; (C) in the event of a transaction contemplating various forms of consideration for each share of Subject Stock, the cash portion, if any, shall be valued as
clause (A) above and the stock portion shall be valued as clause (B) above and any other forms of consideration shall be valued by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith, without applying any discounts to such

securities registered with the SEC and that is engaged in substantial homebuilding or land development activities within the United States, or (iii) a company that does not have a class of equity securities registered with the SEC and that has
annual revenues (in its most recently completed fiscal year) from homebuilding and land development activities within the United States of more than $200 million; provided, that, no manager, member, partner, employee, or consultant of or to
any of the MatlinPatterson Entities shall be excluded from serving as an Independent Director solely due to the fact that such manager, member, partner, employee, or consultant is Affiliated or associated with the MatlinPatterson Entities.


  

	 	2.2.5	If prior to the end of the term of any member of the Board that is an Investor Director, a vacancy in the office of such director shall occur by reason of death, resignation,
removal or disability, or for any other cause, such vacancy shall be filled by the Investor with another Investor Director, and the Investor shall have the right to replace any Investor Director, at any time, with or without cause.


  

	 	2.2.6	From and after the Company Stockholder Approval, upon the Investor and its Affiliates ceasing to beneficially own the percentage of the total voting power of Voting Stock
required to entitle the Investor to designate, pursuant to Section 2.2.2, the number of Investor Directors then so designated, the Company may request that the requisite number of Investor Directors then-serving on the Board resign as
directors, and the Investor shall cause such Investor Directors to resign immediately from the Board, so that the number of Investor Directors shall equal the number that the Investor is then entitled to designate under Section 2.2.2. A
majority of the Independent Directors shall have the right to fill any vacancy resulting therefor. 

  

	 	2.3	Committees and Subsidiary Boards. 

  

	 	2.3.1	 Each committee of the Board (other than the Audit Committee or any committee of Independent Directors formed to consider any Investor Transaction) shall
contain at least one (1) Investor Director and such 



  

 7 









	 	 
additional number as may be agreed by the Independent Directors and the Investor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any executive or similar committee of the
Board shall contain such numbers of the Investor Directors so that the number of Investor Directors on such committee shall be as nearly as possible proportional to the total number of Investor Directors on the Board; provided that the
Investor Directors shall never exceed one person less than a majority of the directors then-serving on such committee. 


  

	 	2.3.2	The board of each Subsidiary (and committees thereof, if any) of the Company shall contain up to one (1) Investor Director. 

  

	 	2.4	Independent Directors. The Investor shall use its reasonable best efforts to take and cause to be taken all necessary action to elect to the Board the
Independent Directors nominated by the Nominating and Governance Committee; provided that the Investor and its Affiliates shall vote any Voting Stock beneficially owned by the Investor and its Affiliates, in favor of or withhold
authority for such nominees in the same proportion as all of the stockholders of the Company (other than the Investor and its Affiliates) vote their shares of Voting Stock at any special or annual meeting of stockholders of the Company or in
connection with any other vote relating to the election of directors. 

  

	 	2.5	Quorum. The quorum required for the transaction of business by the Board shall include at least one (1) Investor Director, so long as at least one
(1) Investor Director is serving on the Board, provided, however, that a meeting of the Board shall not require the presence of an Investor Director to constitute a quorum for such meeting in the event that each of the Investor
Directors shall have failed to attend a duly called Board meeting relating to the same subject matter and such meeting is adjourned and each of the Investor Directors shall have failed to attend the duly adjourned Board meeting, which is at least
two (2) Business Days thereafter and the Independent Directors have received notice of such adjournment as would be required for a separately called meeting. 

  

	 	2.6	Amendments. Neither the Charter nor the Bylaws shall be amended in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement without the consent of the Investor.


  

	 	2.7	 Corporate Opportunities. It is understood and accepted by the parties that the Investor Directors and the Investor, and their respective
Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, partners or employees, may have interests in other business ventures which may be in conflict with the activities of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that,
subject to applicable law and the provisions of Section 2.2.4, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the respective current or future business activities of the Investor Directors and the Investor, or any of their respective Affiliates,
and their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, partners or employees, whether or not such activities are competitive with those of the Company and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Investor
Directors and 



  

 8 









	 	 
the Investor shall remain subject to the obligations concerning Confidential Information set forth in this Agreement. Each of the parties acknowledges that
corporate and investment opportunities may from time to time come to the attention of the Investor Directors and the Investor, and their respective Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, partners or
employees. Subject to the continued compliance by the Investor Directors and the Investor, and their Affiliates, with the obligations concerning Confidential Information set forth in this Agreement, the Company on its own behalf and on behalf of
each of its Subsidiaries renounces such opportunities, provided that such opportunities came to the attention of such Persons other than as a result of their position with the Company or that of their Affiliates with the Company, and acknowledges
(i) that the Company and its Subsidiaries have no interest in any of such activities of the Investor Directors or the Investor, or those of their respective Affiliates, or those of their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders,
members, partners or employees, (ii) that the Investor Directors and the Investor, and their respective Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, partners or employees, are not obligated to present
such opportunities to the Company or its Subsidiaries and (iii) that the Investor Director and the Investor, and their respective Affiliates, and their respective, officers, directors, managers, stockholders, members, partners or employees, may
invest in and, except for Investor Directors, may serve on boards of directors or similar governing bodies of Persons competing with Company or its Subsidiaries or Persons that have a material economic relationship with the Company or its
Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall relieve any officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Investor Directors, of any fiduciary duty or other duties or obligations they may have to the
Company’s and/or such Subsidiaries’ stockholders. 


  

	 	2.8	Preapproval. Except as expressly permitted hereunder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any proposed Investor Transaction, other than the
Transactions, must be pre-approved by a majority of the Non-Management Independent Directors. 

  

	3	Standstill Provisions 

 The Investor shall not, and
shall cause its Affiliates to not, whether acting alone or in concert with others: 
  

	 	3.1	make, initiate, or in any way participate in, directly or indirectly, any “solicitation” of “proxies” (as such terms are used in Regulation 14A

the Independent Directors; 

  

	 	3.2	become or induce or attempt to induce any Person to become a “participant” in any “election contest” (as such terms are defined or used in Regulation 14A

involving the Company, or any extraordinary dividend or liquidation of the Company, or the acquisition of a substantial portion of the equity securities or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; provided, however, that
the foregoing shall not (x) apply to any discussion between or among the Investor and the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, officers, employees agents or representatives or (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, be
interpreted to limit the ability of the Investor, or any Investor Director to make any such statement or proposal or to discuss any such proposal with any officer or director of or advisor of the Company or advisor to the Board unless, in either
case, it would reasonably be expected to require the Company to make a public announcement regarding such discussion, statement or proposal; 

  

	 	3.8	form, join or in any way participate in or encourage the formation of a Group with respect to any Voting Stock, other than a Group consisting solely of the Investor, the
Company and their Affiliates; except in connection with an Acquisition Proposal in accordance with Section 5, provided, that, neither the Investor nor its Affiliates shall in any case form, join or participate in or encourage the
formation of any Group of which the members, together with all of such members’ respective Affiliates, will, together with the Investor and its Affiliates, beneficially own at least fifty percent (50%) or more of the total Voting Stock;


  

	 	3.9	 enter into a short position with respect to Capital Stock or grant any option to purchase or acquire any right to dispose of for value of any shares of
Capital Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or

respect to the voting thereof, other than any such trust, arrangement or agreement (i) the only parties to, or beneficiaries of, which are the Investor, the Company or their Affiliates and (ii) the terms of which do not require or permit
any party thereto to act in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement; 

  

	 	3.11	publicly disclose any intention, plan or arrangement inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, or make any such disclosure privately if it would reasonably be expected
to require the Company to make a public announcement regarding such intention, plan or arrangement; 

  

	 	3.12	except in connection with a transaction in compliance with Section 5.1 or Section 5.2, make any filing public with any Governmental Authority, including the
SEC, or make any other public statement that the Investor or its Affiliates, individually or together, own more than 49% of the voting power of the Voting Stock, or that is otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement; 

  

	 	3.13	except as specifically permitted by this Agreement (including through action of the Investor Directors in their capacity as members of the Board, or, except as otherwise
specifically required by this Agreement, voting shares of Voting Stock, in the sole discretion of the Investor), otherwise act to control or influence the Company or its management, Board, policies or affairs; or 

  

	 	3.14	request the Board to waive any of the obligations of the Investor set forth in the foregoing.

	 	4.1	Prior to the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering, or (ii) March 15, 2011, the Investor shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates to
not, Transfer, directly or indirectly, any Capital Stock, except for a Transfer to any Permitted Affiliate which expressly agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by this Agreement, and if such Permitted Affiliate shall thereafter no longer
be a Permitted Affiliate of the Investor, then such Affiliate shall Transfer such Capital Stock that was the subject of such Transfer back to the Investor or a then Permitted Affiliate of the Investor; provided, that the Investor shall not be
prohibited from “net exercising” the Warrants in accordance with its terms, and in connection with such exercise, if such exercise is a mandatory conversion under the terms of the Warrant, the Investor may transfer an amount of Capital
Stock received upon exercise to any Person, who is not a Permitted Affiliate of the Investor, in a cash sale in an amount equal to any taxes that the Investor may incur upon exercise of the Warrants, so long as such Transfer otherwise complies with
Section 4.2. 

  

 11 









	 	4.2	From and after the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering or (ii) March 15, 2011, the Investor shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates
to not, Transfer, directly or indirectly, any Capital Stock, except for a Transfer that complies with any of the following subsections: 

  

	 	4.2.1	to any Permitted Affiliate; 

  

	 	4.2.2	to any Person such that, after such Transfer, such Person, together with its Affiliates, will not beneficially own voting power of Voting Stock constituting fifteen percent
(15%) or more of the total voting power of Voting Stock; 

  

	 	4.2.3	in a bona fide pledge of such Capital Stock to a financial institution to secure borrowings as permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations;


  

	 	4.2.4	to underwriters in connection with an underwritten public offering of such Capital Stock on a firm commitment basis registered under the Securities Act pursuant to which the
sale of such Capital Stock will be in a manner to effect a broad distribution; 

  

	 	4.2.5	to the Company or one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries; or 

  

	 	4.2.6	to any Person in connection with an Acquisition Proposal consummated with any Person, who (i) is not an Affiliate of the Investor and which Acquisition Proposal is
approved by a majority of the Board, or (ii) a Surviving Company Merger, in which the Investor and its Affiliates and the other non-affiliated public company shareholders all hold the same relative proportion of interests in the surviving
company as they did in the Company prior to the Surviving Company Merger. 

  

	 	4.3	Mechanics of Transfer Following any Transfer of Capital Stock permitted under this Agreement, the holder of such Capital Stock shall promptly
provide the Company a notice with respect to the proposed Transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Any Affiliate of Investor at the time of any Transfer which at any time thereafter is no longer an Affiliate of Investor shall also
notify the Company accordingly by giving the Company such notice. 

  

	 	4.4	 Repurchase Transaction If (i) the Company intends to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of its Capital Stock (a
“Repurchase Transaction”); (ii) at such time, the Investor, together with its Affiliates, is the beneficial owner of forty nine percent (49%) or less of the total voting power of the Voting Stock; and (iii) in giving effect
to such Repurchase Transaction, the Investor would be the beneficial owner, together with its Affiliates, of more than forty nine percent (49%) of the total voting power of the Voting Stock, then immediately prior to the consummation of such
Repurchase Transaction, the Company shall repurchase 



  

 12 









	 	 
such number of shares of Capital Stock beneficially owned by the Investor (or any Affiliate designated by Investor) at the same price per share (on an
as-converted to Common Stock basis) to be paid to the other stockholders in such Repurchase Transaction, so that the Investor, together with its Affiliates, would be the beneficial owner of forty nine percent (49%) or less of the total voting
power of the Voting Stock immediately following the consummation of such Repurchase Transaction. 


  

	 	4.5	Confidential Information 

  

	 	4.5.1	The Investor covenants and agrees that it shall keep all confidential information relating to the Company that it receives in its capacity as either a stockholder of the
Company or in connection with its rights under this Agreement, and information received from the Investor Directors (such information, “Confidential Information”) confidential, not use such information in any manner that is adverse
to the interests of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and not disclose such information to any third party without the written consent of the Company unless the Confidential Information is: 

  

	 	(i)	already in the possession of the Investor or its Affiliates as at the date of this Agreement, other than pursuant to a confidentiality agreement with the Company;


  

	 	(ii)	already in possession of the public or becomes available to the public other than through any act or omission of the Investor or its Affiliates in violation of this Agreement;


  

	 	(iii)	required to be disclosed under any applicable law or by any governmental order, decree, regulation or rule or is requested by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the
Investor or its Affiliates or in connection with any legal proceedings, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 4.5.2; or 

  

	 	(iv)	acquired independently from a third party that represented that it has the right to disseminate such information at the time it is acquired by the Investor or its Affiliates without
restriction. 

  

	 	4.5.2	 In the event that the Investor is requested or required (by deposition, interrogatory, request for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena,
civil investigative demand or other similar process) pursuant to law, regulation or a listing agreement with a securities exchange to disclose any of the Confidential Information, it shall provide the Company with prompt written notice of any such
request or requirement so that the Company may, if time permits, seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the




  

 13 









	 	 
receipt of a waiver by the Company, the Investor is nonetheless legally compelled to disclose Confidential Information to any tribunal or securities exchange
or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or penalty, the Investor may, without liability hereunder, disclose to such tribunal or securities exchange only that portion of the Confidential Information that it reasonably believes is
legally required to be disclosed; provided that the Investor exercises its reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such Confidential Information. 


  

	 	4.5.3	The Investor and the Investor Directors may disclose the Confidential Information without the Company’s prior written consent to the Investor and its Affiliates and to
any of Investor’s or its Affiliates’ employees, officers and directors (or persons performing a similar function), professional consultants or agents, subject to confidentiality undertakings by such Persons receiving the Confidential
Information, and who need to know such information for a purpose reasonably related to the Investor or Investor Director’s interest as a stockholder or director of the Company, as applicable. In any event, the Investor or the Investor Director,
as applicable, shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by such Persons to which it discloses Confidential Information. 

  

	 	4.5.4	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, but subject to Section 4.5.5, the Investor or its Affiliates may disclose, with reasonable advance notice to the
Company, any Confidential Information to a potential purchaser of Capital Stock beneficially owned by the Investor or its Affiliates if such potential purchaser executes a confidentiality agreement with such selling stockholder in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Company (which among other things shall provide third party beneficiary rights in favor of the Company to enforce the terms thereof), 

  

	 	4.5.5	Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, under no circumstances shall the Investor or its Affiliates disclose any Confidential Information to any competitors of the
Company or its Subsidiaries or any affiliates of such competitors. 

  

	 	4.6	Amendments to Certain Documents The Company shall not, without the prior consent of the Investor, amend or modify (i) its Rights Plan
to lower the threshold upon which the rights thereunder are separated or distributed, to beneficial ownership of less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Voting Stock, or (ii) its Certificate of Incorporation to become subject to
“interested stockholder” or “business combination” provisions at a threshold of beneficial ownership of less than fifteen percent (15%) of the Voting Stock. 

  

	5	Prohibited Acquisitions and Circumstance Permitting Acquisitions 

 The Investor shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates to not, acquire, or agree or offer to purchase or otherwise acquire, in a transaction or group of related transactions, any 

  

 14 








 
Capital Stock of the Company such that the Investor, together with its Affiliates, after giving effect to such transaction or transactions, would
beneficially own (i) one share more than the shares of Capital Stock purchased by Investor in the Transactions, or (ii) fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power of the Voting Stock (in each case taking into account any
adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or other similar events relating to any of the Company’s Capital Stock), except pursuant to one of the following: 
  

	 	5.1	an Acquisition Proposal by the Investor or its Affiliates that is approved by at least a majority of the Non-Management Independent Directors; or 

  

	 	5.2	an Acquisition Proposal that is a merger or consolidation that is approved by (i) the Board of Directors, including at least one Non-Management Independent Director, and
(ii) at a special or annual meeting of stockholders, by the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the voting power of Voting Stock not beneficially owned by the Investor or its Affiliates. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, each action taken or proposed to be taken hereunder must be in compliance with this Agreement, including the provisions of
Section 3. 
  

	6	Legends; Securities Law Compliance 

  

	 	6.1	Each certificate representing Capital Stock that is restricted stock as defined in Rule 144 shall bear the following legend: 

 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF UNLESS (i) SUCH DISPOSITION IS PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM AND
(ii) SUCH DISPOSITION IS PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION UNDER ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM.” 
  

	 	6.2	Each certificate representing Capital Stock that is subject to this Agreement shall bear the following legend: 

 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO TRANSFER, VOTING AND OTHER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN A STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED
AS OF [•], 2008 COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE ISSUER.” 
  

	 	6.3	 Certificates representing Capital Stock shall bear any other legends required by applicable state law. When any Capital Stock has been registered under the
Securities Act, and such Capital Stock has been sold pursuant to such registration or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or is eligible to be sold pursuant 



  

 15 









	 	 
to such Rule without volume limitations or other restrictions, the holder of such Capital Stock shall be entitled to exchange the certificate representing
such Capital Stock for a certificate not bearing the legend required by Section 6.1. If any Capital Stock ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the holder of such Capital Stock shall be entitled to exchange the certificate representing
such Capital Stock for a certificate not bearing the legend required by Section 6.2. The Investor agrees that, in addition to complying with the restrictions on Transfer set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, the Investor and its
Affiliates will not directly or indirectly Transfer any Capital Stock (or solicit any offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge of any Capital Stock) in violation of the Securities Act, applicable state securities or “blue
sky” laws or any rules or regulations thereunder. 


  

	7	Registration Rights 

  

	 	7.1	Shelf Registration 

 If requested by the Investor
prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering, but subject to the Transfer restrictions set forth in Section 4.2, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify for registration on and to
file, a registration statement on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms or any similar short-form registration (“Short-Form Registration Statement”), and such Short-Form Registration Statement will be a
“shelf” registration statement providing for the registration, and the sale on a continuous or delayed basis, of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 from and after the second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering.
In no event shall the Company be obligated to effect any shelf other than pursuant to a Short-Form Registration Statement. Upon filing a Short-Form Registration Statement, the Company will, if applicable, use its commercially reasonable efforts to
(i) cause such Short-Form Registration Statement to be declared effective, and (ii) keep such Short-Form Registration Statement effective with the SEC at all times. Any Short-Form Registration Statement shall be re-filed upon its
expiration, and the Company shall cooperate in any shelf take-down by amending or supplementing the prospectus statement related to such Short-Form Registration Statement as may be reasonably requested by a Holder or as otherwise required, until the
Holders who would require such registration to effect a sale of the Registrable Securities no longer hold the Registrable Securities so registered; provided that no Holder may be permitted to sell under such “shelf” registration
statement during such times as the trading window is not open for Company senior management in accordance with the Company’s policies. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any Short-Form Registration
Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as are under its control to become a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (and not become an ineligible issuer (as
defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act)). 
  

 16 









	 	7.2	Demand Registration 

 At any time following the
second anniversary of the closing of the Rights Offering, but subject to the Transfer restrictions set forth in Section 4.2, if (i) the Company has been requested and has not filed, and caused to be effective and maintained the
effectiveness of a “shelf” registration statement pursuant to Section 7.1 or (ii) if the Holders intend that the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Request shall be distributed by means of an underwritten
offering, the Investor may request in writing that the Company effect the registration of all or any part of the Registrable Securities held by the Holders on whose behalf the Investor has made the request (a “Registration
Request”). Promptly after its receipt of any Registration Request but no later than ten (10) days after receipt of such Registration Request, the Company will give written notice of such request to the other Holders, and will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to register, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, all Registrable Securities that have been requested to be registered in the Registration Request or by the other Holders by written notice to the
Company given within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date the Company has given such notice of the Registration Request; provided that, with respect to an underwritten offering, the Company will not be required to effect a
registration pursuant to this Section 7.2 unless the value of Registrable Securities included in the Registration Request is at least $50 million or $10 million in the case of a Short-Form Registration. Any registration requested by the
Investor pursuant to this Section 7.2 is referred to in this Agreement as a “Demand Registration.” 
  

	 	7.3	Limitations on Demand Registrations 

 The Investor
will be entitled to initiate no more than three (3) Demand Registrations, and the Company will not be obligated to effect more than one Demand Registration in any six month period. No request for registration will count for the purposes of the
limitations in this Section 7.3 if (i) the Registration Statement relating to such request is not declared effective within 180 days of the date such Registration Statement is first filed with the SEC (other than solely by reason of
the participating Holders having refused to proceed or provide any required information for inclusion therein) and the Investor withdraws the Registration Request prior to such Registration Statement being declared effective, (ii) prior to the
sale of at least ninety percent (90%) of the Registrable Securities included in the applicable registration relating to such request, such Registration Statement is adversely affected by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement
of the SEC or other Governmental Authority for any reason and the Company fails to have such stop order, injunction or other order or requirement removed, withdrawn or resolved to the Investor’s reasonable satisfaction within thirty
(30) days of the date of such order, or (iii) the conditions to closing specified in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the registration relating to such request are not satisfied (other than as a result of a
default or breach thereunder by the Investor or other Holders). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with any request for registration pursuant to Section 7.2 regardless of whether
or not such request counts toward the limitation set forth above. 
  

 17 









	 	7.4	Restrictions on Demand Registrations 

 If the
filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement would require the Company to make a public disclosure of material non-public information, which disclosure in the good faith judgment of the Board (i) would be required
to be made in any Registration Statement so that such Registration Statement would not be materially misleading, (ii) would not be required to be made at such time but for the filing, effectiveness or continued use of such Registration
Statement, and (iii) would in the good faith judgment of the Board (A) reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Company or its business if made at such time, or (B) reasonably be excepted to interfere with the Company’s
ability to effect a planned or proposed acquisition, disposition, financing, reorganization, recapitalization or similar transaction or (C) otherwise require premature disclosure of material information that the Company has a bona fide
business purpose for preserving as confidential, then the Company may upon giving prompt written notice of such determination of the Board to the participants in such registration (each of whom hereby agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all
information disclosed to such participants, provided that the Company shall not be required to disclose the nature of the delay or other confidential information) delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration
Statement; provided, that the Company shall not be permitted to do so (x) for more than sixty (60) days for a given occurrence of such a circumstance or (y) more than two (2) times during any twelve-month period. In the
event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, promptly upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of any prospectus relating to such registration in connection with any sale or
offer to sell Registrable Securities. If the Company so postpones the filing of a prospectus or the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, the Investor will be entitled to withdraw such request and, if such request is promptly withdrawn, such
registration request will not count for the purposes of the limitation set forth in Section 7.3. The Company will pay all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any such aborted registration or prospectus. 
  

	 	7.5	Selection of Underwriters 

 If the Investor intends
that the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Request shall be distributed by means of an underwritten offering, the Investor will so advise the Company as a part of the Registration Request, and the Company will include such
information in the notice sent by the Company to the Holders with respect to such Registration Request. In such event, the lead underwriter to administer the offering will be chosen by the Company in such offering, subject to the prior written
consent of the Investor, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the offering is underwritten, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 7 will be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and each such Holder will (together with the Company) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters
selected for such underwriting. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Holder may promptly elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriter and the Initiating Investors. 
  

 18 









	 	7.6	Priority on Demand Registrations 

  

	 	7.6.1	The Company will not include in any Demand Registration by means of an underwritten offering pursuant to this Section 7 any securities that are not Registrable
Securities, without the prior written consent of the Investor. If the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the number of Registrable Securities (and, if permitted hereunder, other securities requested to be
included in such offering) exceeds the number of securities that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company will include in
such offering only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which
securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, Registrable Securities of any Holder on whose behalf the Investor has submitted a Registration Request, (ii) second, Registrable Securities of any other Holder
who has delivered written requests for registration pursuant to Section 7.2, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Person, and (iii) third, any other securities of the Company
that have been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of this Agreement 

  

	 	7.6.2	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action pursuant to this Section 7 if the Company, within ten (10) days of the receipt
of the request of the Investor, gives notice of its bona fide intention to effect the filing of a registration statement or prospectus supplement to a shelf registration statement with the SEC within forty five (45) days of receipt of
such request (other than with respect to a registration statement relating to a Rule 145 transaction, an offering solely to employees, or any other registration which is not appropriate for the registration of Registrable Securities).


  

	 	7.7	Piggyback Registrations 

  

	 	7.7.1	 Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its Common Stock in connection with a public offering of such securities solely for cash, other than a
registration pursuant to Section 7.2 or on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or successor form), and the registration form to be filed may be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company will
give prompt written notice to the Holders of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten (10) days prior to the anticipated filing date) and, subject to Section 7.7.4, will include in such registration
all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten (10) days after the date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any such Holder
that has made such a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by giving prompt written notice to the Company and the managing 



  

 19 









	 	 
underwriter, if any, on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 7.7.1 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or
not the Holders have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration. 


  

	 	7.7.2	If the registration referred to in Section 7.7.1 is proposed to be underwritten, the Company will so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given
pursuant to Section 7.7.1. In such event, the right of the Holders to registration pursuant to this Section 7.7 will be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such
Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting, and each such person will (together with the Company and the other Persons distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company. If any participating Holder disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such Person may promptly elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company and the
managing underwriter. 

  

	 	7.7.3	If a Piggyback Registration relates to an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the number of securities
requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company will include in such
registration or prospectus only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price),
which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell, (ii) Registrable Securities of the Holders who have requested registration of Registrable Securities pursuant
to Sections 7.7.1, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of such securities or shares owned by each such Holder, and (iii) third, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included.


  

	 	7.8	Registration Procedures

Section 7.4, whenever the Holders have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 of this Agreement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to

respect to such filing or the documents incorporated by reference therein, and if requested by such counsel, provide such counsel reasonable opportunity to participate in the preparation of such Registration Statement and such other opportunities to

to be delivered in connection with sales of Registrable Securities by an underwriter or dealer or (iii) continuously in the case of shelf registration statements and any shelf registration statement shall be re-filed upon its expiration (or in
each case such shorter period ending on the date that the securities covered by such shelf registration statement cease to constitute Registrable Securities) or (B) such shorter period as will terminate when all of the securities covered by
such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement (but in any event not before the expiration of any longer period

therein by reference untrue in any material respect or that requires the making of any changes in such Registration Statement, prospectus or documents and, as soon as reasonably practicable (but subject to the delay provisions of
Section 7.4), prepare and furnish to such Holder a reasonable number of copies of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, not misleading, and that in the case of any prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary in order to make the statement therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading;

Section 7.8.11 below cease to be true and correct in any material respect, and (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the
Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;

subject to the delay provisions of Section 7.4), prepare a supplement or amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the related prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, or
file any other required document so that such prospectus as thereafter delivered to the participating Holders will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
in the light of the circumstances under which they were made;

required to make members of management and executives of the Company so available for more than five consecutive days or more than 10 days in any 365 day period);

the business of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, and the Registration Statement, prospectus, and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in form, substance and scope as are customarily made by
the issuer in underwritten offerings, and, if true, make customary confirmations of the same if and when requested;

	 	7.8.18	obtain one or more comfort letters, addressed to the underwriters, if any, dated the effective date of such Registration Statement and the date of the closing under the
underwriting agreement for such offering, signed by the Company’s independent public accountants (and if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and
financial data are, or are required to be, included in the Registration Statement) in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by comfort letters as such underwriters shall reasonably request;


  

	 	7.8.19	provide legal opinions of the Company’s counsel, addressed to the underwriters, if any, dated the date of the closing under the underwriting agreement, with respect to

	 	7.9	Registration Expenses

registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, word processing, duplicating and printing expenses, messenger, telephone and delivery expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any road show, and
fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants and 



  

 25 









	 	 
other persons retained by the Company (all such expenses, “Registration Expenses”), will be borne by the Company. The Company will, in any
event, pay its internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit or quarterly review, the expenses of any liability insurance and the
expenses and fees for listing the securities to be registered on each securities exchange on which they are required to be listed hereunder. The Holders of the securities so registered shall pay all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and
transfer taxes applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities hereunder and any other Registration Expenses required by law to be paid by a selling holder pro rata on the basis of the amount of proceeds from the sale of their shares so registered.



  

	 	7.9.2	In connection with each Demand Registration and each Piggyback Registration, the Company will reimburse the Holders participating in such registration for the reasonable fees
and disbursements of one counsel (“Holders’ Counsel”). 

  

	 	7.10	Participation in Underwritten Registrations 

  

	 	7.10.1	No Holder may participate in any registration hereunder that is underwritten unless such Holder (i) agrees to sell its Registrable Securities on the basis provided in
the underwriting arrangements in customary form entered into pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to the terms of any over-allotment or “green shoe” option requested by the managing underwriter(s), provided, that no such
Holder will be required to sell more than the number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested the Company to include in any registration), (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities,
underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements, provided, that such Holder shall not be required to make any representations or warranties other than those related to title
and ownership of shares and as to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in a Registration Statement, prospectus, offering circular, or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company or
the managing underwriter(s) by such Holder, and (iii) cooperates with the Company’s reasonable requests in connection with such registration or qualification (it being understood that the Company’s failure to perform its obligations
hereunder, which failure is caused by such Holder’s failure to cooperate with such reasonable requests, will not constitute a breach by the Company of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of any Holder participating in
such an underwritten registration shall be limited to an amount equal to the amount of gross proceeds attributable to the sale of such Person’s Registrable Securities. 


	 	

  

 26 









	 	7.10.2	Each Holder that is participating in any registration hereunder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described
in Section 7.4, 7.8.5 and 7.8.6, such Holder will forthwith discontinue the disposition of its Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement until such Holder receives copies of a supplemented or amended
prospectus as contemplated by such Section 7.8.5, 7.8.6 and 7.8.7. In the event the Company gives any such notice, the applicable time period mentioned in Section 7.8.2 during which a Registration Statement is
to remain effective will be extended by the number of days during the period from and including the date of the giving of such notice pursuant to this Section 7.10.2 to and including the date when each Holder of a Registrable Security
covered by such Registration Statement will have received the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 7.8.5, 7.8.6 and 7.8.7. 

  

	 	7.11	Rule 144 

 The Company will use its reasonable best
efforts to timely file all reports and other documents required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it
will, upon the request of a Holder, make publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 or Regulation S under the Securities Act), and it will take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, to
the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (i) Rule 144 or Regulation S under the
Securities Act, as such rules may be amended from time to time, or (ii) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the reasonable request of any Holder, the Company will deliver to such Holder a written statement as to
whether it has complied with such information requirements, and, if not, the specifics thereof. 
  

	 	7.12	Holdback 

 In consideration for the Company agreeing
to its obligations under this Agreement, each Investor (and any transferee) agrees in connection with any registration of the Company’s securities (whether or not such Person is participating in such registration) upon the request of the
Company and the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, not to effect (other than pursuant to such registration) any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities, including any sale pursuant to Rule
144 or Rule 144A, or make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of or Transfer any Registrable Securities, any other equity securities of the Company or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or
exercisable for any equity securities of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, during the Holdback Period; provided, that nothing herein will prevent any such Holder that is a
partnership or corporation from making a distribution of Registrable Securities to the partners or shareholders thereof or a transfer to an Affiliate that is otherwise in compliance with applicable securities laws, so 

  

 27 








 
long as such distributees or transferees agree to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Section 7.12. With respect to such underwritten
offering of Registrable Securities covered by a registration pursuant to Section 7.2 or 7.3, the Company further agrees not to effect (other than pursuant to such registration or pursuant to a Special Registration) any public sale
or distribution, or to file any Registration Statement (other than such registration or a Special Registration) covering any of its equity securities, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the
Holdback Period with respect to such underwritten offering, if required by the managing underwriter.
