ARTICLE 2
ISSUE, DESCRIPTION, EXECUTION, REGISTRATION AND EXCHANGE OF NOTES
Section 2.01    Designation and Amount. The Notes shall be designated as the “Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2026.” The aggregate Original Principal Amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is initially limited to $90,649,307.77, subject to Section 2.10 and except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Notes to the extent expressly permitted hereunder.
Section 2.02    Form of Notes. The Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication to be borne by such Notes shall be substantially in the respective forms set forth in Exhibit A, the terms and provisions of which shall constitute, and are hereby expressly incorporated in and made a part of this Indenture. To the extent applicable, the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.
Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends (other than legends restricting transfer) or endorsements as the Officer executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, or to conform to usage or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Notes are subject.
Section 2.03    Date of Notes; Interest and Defaulted Amounts.
(a)    The Notes are not required to be issued in any minimum denomination.  The Notes shall be issuable in registered form without coupons. Each Note shall be dated the date of its authentication.  Each Note will accrue interest at the Applicable Annual Rate from, and including, the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or, if no interest has theretofore been paid or duly provided for, the date set forth in the certificate representing such Note as the date from and including which interest will begin to accrue) to, but excluding, the date of payment of such interest, payable quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on the first Interest Payment Date set forth in the certificate representing such Note, to the Holder of such Note as of the close of business on the immediately 
50








preceding Interest Record Date. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and, for partial months, on the basis of the number of days actually elapsed in a 30-day month.
(b)    The Company shall elect on each Interest Payment Date (other than the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date), by notice to the Trustee and Holders, whether interest (other than Additional Interest, if any, which shall be payable in cash) for the interest period commencing on such Interest Payment Date shall be payable (1) solely in cash or (2) partially in cash and partially in the form of PIK Interest; provided that if the Company does not timely elect the form of interest payment, then with respect to the Interest Payment Date immediately following such interest period (for purposes of this Section 2.03, the “related Interest Payment Date”) on which date such interest shall be due, the Company will be deemed to have elected to pay interest partially in cash and partially in the form of PIK Interest (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s failure to timely make any such election described in this Section 2.03(b) will not constitute a Default or Event of Default).  If, in respect of any interest period, the Company elects or is deemed to elect to pay interest partially in cash and partially in the form of PIK Interest, then interest at the per annum rate of 5.75% shall be payable in cash and interest at the per annum rate of 9.25% shall be payable in the form of PIK Interest.
All accrued and unpaid interest to be paid in cash in accordance with the election of the Company pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) shall be paid in cash on the related Interest Payment Date.  On any related Interest Payment Date on which PIK Interest is to be paid on each Note in accordance with the election by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) (each, a “PIK Payment”) the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, shall increase the principal amount of each Note on the books and records of the Note Registrar on the relevant Interest Payment Date by an amount equal to the PIK Interest payable to the credit of the Holders on the relevant Interest Record Date. Following any such increase in the principal amount of each outstanding Note as a result of a PIK Payment, (x) each Note will bear interest on the Then Current Principal Amount thereof after the date of such PIK Payment, and (y) all references herein to the “Then Current Principal Amount” of a Note (and terms of similar import) shall be deemed to refer to the Original Principal Amount of such Note on the date of this Indenture together with the amount by which the principal amount of such Note shall have been increased on account of such PIK Payment and on account of all prior PIK Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no PIK Payment shall be permitted (i) on the Maturity Date, (ii) on any Note redeemed in connection with an Optional Redemption or a Tax Redemption or (iii) on any Note repurchased in connection with an Asset Sale Offer, Fundamental Change Offer or a Springing Repurchase Offer.
(c)    The Person in whose name any Note (or its Predecessor Note) is registered on the Note Register at the close of business on any Interest Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive any cash interest payable on such Interest Payment Date. The principal amount of any Note shall be payable to the Holder of those Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States.
(d)    The Company shall pay cash interest to the Holder of those Notes by wire transfer of immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States.
(e)    Any Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but shall accrue interest per annum at the then-applicable interest rate borne by the Notes plus 3.0%, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with any such interest thereon shall be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:
51








(i)    The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 days after the receipt by the Trustee of such notice), and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Company shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Holders of such special record date of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be delivered to each Holder not less than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been so delivered, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (ii) of this Section 2.03(e).
(ii)    The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.
Section 2.04    Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile signature of one or more of its Officers.
At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes and an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes, without any further action by the Company hereunder.
Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form set forth on the Form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto, executed manually by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as provided by Section 18.09), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate executed manually by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent) upon any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
In case any Officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, or disposed of by the Company, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and 
52








delivered or disposed of as though the person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer of the Company; and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such person was not such an Officer.
Section 2.05    Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer. (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable period of time. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note to the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.05, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of and in accordance with a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture.
Notes may be exchanged for other Notes and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate upon receipt of a Company Order, and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.
All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and duly executed, by the Holder thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be imposed to a Holder by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange or registration of transfer.
None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion, (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article 15 or (iii) any Notes selected for Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption in accordance with Article 16.
All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Indenture shall be the valid obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

56








Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Note or Ordinary Share, as the case may be, no longer being a “restricted security” (as defined under Rule 144).

Following receipt by the Trustee or such authenticating agent, as the case may be, of satisfactory security or indemnity and evidence, as described in the preceding paragraph, the Trustee or such authenticating agent may, upon receipt of and in accordance with a Company Order, authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may reasonably require. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note, but the Company may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder of the old Note that became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for repurchase or redemption or is about to be converted in accordance with Article 14 shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof.
Every substitute Note issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement, payment, conversion, redemption or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes and thereupon any or all temporary Notes may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.
Section 2.08    Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates), to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order, be canceled promptly by the Trustee. Except for any Notes surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, or as otherwise expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture, no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange for any Notes canceled as provided herein. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, at the Company’s written request in a Company Order, provide copies of such cancelled Notes and related documentation to the Company.

THE COMPANY MAY, WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THE HOLDERS AND NOTWITHSTANDING SECTION 2.01, REOPEN THIS INDENTURE AND ISSUE ADDITIONAL NOTES HEREUNDER TO THE INITIAL HOLDERS AND DR. ANDREW RICKMAN WITH THE SAME TERMS AS THE NOTES INITIALLY ISSUED HEREUNDER (OTHER THAN DIFFERENCES IN THE ISSUE DATE, THE ISSUE PRICE AND ANY INTEREST ACCRUED PRIOR TO THE ISSUE DATE OF SUCH ADDITIONAL NOTES) UP TO AN AGGREGATE ORIGINAL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $90,649,307.77 FOR ALL THEN-OUTSTANDING NOTES ISSUED UNDER THIS INDENTURE; PROVIDED THAT SUCH ADDITIONAL NOTES SHALL NOT BE ISSUED LATER THAN THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF THE DATE ON WHICH THE INITIAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT (AS DEFINED IN THE REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT) IS EFFECTIVE AND PROVIDED FURTHER THAT SUCH ADDITIONAL NOTES MUST (X) BE FUNGIBLE FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES WITH THE NOTES ORIGINALLY ISSUED HEREUNDER ON THE ISSUE DATE. PRIOR TO THE ISSUANCE OF ANY SUCH ADDITIONAL NOTES OR (Y) SUCH ADDITIONAL NOTES MUST BE ISSUED WITH A DIFFERENT CUSIP, THE COMPANY SHALL DELIVER TO THE TRUSTEE A COMPANY ORDER, AN OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE AND AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SUCH OFFICER’S CERTIFICATE AND OPINION OF COUNSEL TO COVER SUCH MATTERS, IN ADDITION TO THOSE REQUIRED BY SECTION 18.05, AS THE TRUSTEE SHALL REASONABLY REQUEST. IN ADDITION, THE COMPANY MAY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AND DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY (REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NOTES ARE SURRENDERED TO THE 
58








COMPANY), REPURCHASE NOTES IN THE OPEN MARKET OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER BY THE COMPANY OR ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THROUGH A PRIVATE OR PUBLIC TENDER OR EXCHANGE OFFER OR THROUGH COUNTERPARTIES TO PRIVATE AGREEMENTS, INCLUDING BY CASH-SETTLED SWAPS OR OTHER DERIVATIVES. THE COMPANY SHALL CAUSE ANY NOTES SO REPURCHASED (OTHER THAN NOTES REPURCHASED PURSUANT TO CASH-SETTLED SWAPS OR OTHER DERIVATIVES) TO BE SURRENDERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 2.08 AND SUCH NOTES SHALL NO LONGER BE CONSIDERED OUTSTANDING UNDER THIS INDENTURE UPON THEIR REPURCHASE. IF THE COMPANY SHALL ACQUIRE ANY OF THE NOTES, SUCH ACQUISITION SHALL NOT OPERATE AS SATISFACTION OF THE INDEBTEDNESS REPRESENTED BY SUCH NOTES UNLESS AND UNTIL THE SAME ARE DELIVERED TO THE TRUSTEE FOR CANCELLATION.  
ARTICLE 3
SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE; COVENANT DEFEASANCE
Section 3.01    Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall upon request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the demand and expense of the Company, shall execute such instruments reasonably requested by the Company acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (a) (i) all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced, paid or converted as provided in Section 2.06) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after the Notes have become due and payable, whether on the Maturity Date or earlier Redemption Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Springing Repurchase Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation, Ordinary Shares and, if applicable, cash, sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company; and (b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

Section 3.02    Covenant Defeasance.
(a)    The Company may elect, at its option, to have its obligations released with respect to the covenants described in Section 4.08, Section 4.09, Section 4.10, Section 4.11, Section 4.12, Section 4.13, Section 4.17, Section 4.27, and Section 4.35 (“Covenant Defeasance”) and any omission to comply with such obligation shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, events described in Section 6.01 (not including those events described in Section 6.01(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (i), and (j)) will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In addition, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, if the Company exercises Covenant Defeasance, each Guarantor will be released from all of its obligations with respect to its applicable guarantee, the Collateral will be released from the Liens securing the Notes and the other Note Obligations and the Note Security Documents shall terminate.
59








(b)    To exercise Covenant Defeasance with respect to the Notes:
(i)    The Company must irrevocably have deposited or cause to have been deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to the benefits of the Holders: (I) money in an amount, or (II) Governmental Obligations, which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount or (III) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient without reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee to pay and discharge, the entire indebtedness in respect of the principal of and premium, if any, interest on (including, without limitation, any Interest Make-Whole Payment), and Additional Payments in respect of such Notes at maturity (including, without limitation, in connection with any Redemption Date or in connection with any Fundamental Change Offer or Springing Repurchase Offer) or upon conversion thereof, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture and such Notes;
(ii)    no Default or Event of Default with respect to the outstanding Notes shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit after giving effect thereto (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit and the granting of any Liens to secure such borrowing);
(iii)    such Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or material instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound;
(iv)    delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel confirming that beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of such deposit and defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such deposit and defeasance had not occurred; and
(v)    the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such Covenant Defeasance have been complied with.
Section 3.03    [Reserved]. 
Section 3.04    Deposited Moneys to be Held in Trust. All moneys, Ordinary Shares or Governmental Obligations deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively, for purposes of this Section 3.04, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.02 shall be held in trust and shall be available for payment of all sums due and to become due on the Notes or under this Indenture in respect of principal, premium, if any, and interest as due to the Holders of such Notes, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent), in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as may be agreed from time to time by the Company and the Trustee.
The Company will pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the cash or Governmental Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.02 hereof or the principal, premium, if any, and interest received in 
60








respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of the outstanding Notes.
Notwithstanding anything in Section 3.02 to the contrary, the Trustee will deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon the request of the Company any money or Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 3.02 which, in the opinion of a nationally-recognized firm of independent public accountants, expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 3.02(b)(i)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Covenant Defeasance.
Section 3.05    Payment of Moneys Held by Paying Agents. In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture all moneys or Governmental Obligations then held by any Paying Agent under the provisions of this Indenture shall, upon demand of the Company, be paid to the Trustee and thereupon such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such moneys or Governmental Obligations.

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

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

Section 4.03    Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 7.09, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.
Section 4.04    Provisions as to Paying Agent. (a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.04:
(i)    that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes;
(ii)    that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and

(b)    If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal and any such accrued and unpaid interest so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal of, or any accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable.
(c)    Anything in this Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 4.04, such sums or amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with respect to such sums or amounts.
(d)    Subject to applicable abandoned property laws, any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent and Ordinary Shares deposited with the Transfer Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, any accrued and unpaid interest on and the consideration due upon conversion of any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, any interest or consideration due upon conversion has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general 
62








creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee, such Paying Agent or Transfer Agent with respect to such trust money and Ordinary Shares, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.

Section 4.06    Rule 144A Information Requirement and Annual Reports. (a) At any time the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes or any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly provide to the Trustee and, upon written request, any Holder or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of such Notes, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or Ordinary Shares pursuant to Rule 144A. The Company shall take such further action as any Holder of such Notes or such Ordinary Shares may reasonably request to the extent from time to time required to enable such Holder to sell such Notes or Ordinary Shares in accordance with Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

Any such document or report that the Company files with the SEC via EDGAR shall be deemed to be delivered with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 4.06(b) at the time such documents are filed via EDGAR; provided that the Trustee has no duty or obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not any such documents or reports have been filed via EDGAR.
At any time during the period commencing from the six (6) month anniversary of the Issue Date and ending at such time that all of the Notes may be sold without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) and otherwise without restriction or limitation pursuant to Rule 144, if the Company (i) shall fail for any reason to satisfy the current public information requirement under Rule 144(c) or (ii) has ever been an issuer described in Rule 144 (i)(1)(i) or becomes an issuer in the future, and the Company shall fail to satisfy any condition set forth in Rule 144(i)(2) (a “Public Information Failure”) then, in addition to the Holder’s other available remedies, the Company shall pay to each Holder, in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, by reason of any such delay in or reduction of its ability to sell the Notes, an amount in cash equal to two percent (2.0%) of the Then Current Principal Amount of such Holder’s Notes on the day of a Public Information Failure and on every thirtieth (30th) day (pro rated for periods totaling less than thirty days) thereafter until the earlier of (a) the date such Public Information Failure is cured and (b) such time that such public information is no longer required for the Holder to transfer the Ordinary Shares pursuant to Rule 144.  The payments to which each Holder shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 4.06(b) are referred to 
63








herein as “Public Information Failure Payments.”  Public Information Failure Payments shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the last day of the calendar month during which such Public Information Failure Payments are incurred and (ii) the third (3rd) Business Day after the event or failure giving rise to the Public Information Failure Payments is cured.  In the event the Company fails to make Public Information Failure Payments in a timely manner, such Public Information Failure Payments shall bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Nothing herein shall limit such Holder’s right to pursue actual damages for the Public Information Failure, and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.
(b)    At any time the Company is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and is not then filing on a voluntary basis quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or annual reports on Form 10-K, at the request of the Requisite Holders Counsel or the Requisite Holders, it shall provide or otherwise make available (including at its option on a password protected website) within the time periods required under clause (b) above (including for the avoidance of doubt after giving effect to all applicable grace periods under the Exchange Act) as if the Company were required to file such reports to any Holder of the Notes that requests in writing such quarterly or annual financial statements that would have been required to be included in such report, together with a Financial Officer Certification and a “management discussion and analysis” with respect thereto and in the case of annual financial statements, such financial statements shall also include a report thereon of independent certified public accountants of recognized regional standing selected by the Company (which report shall state that such consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at the dates indicated and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the periods indicated in conformity with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with prior years (except as otherwise disclosed in such financial statements) and that the examination by such accountants in connection with such consolidated financial statements has been made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards) (such report shall also include (x) a detailed summary of any audit adjustments; (y) a reconciliation of any audit adjustments or reclassifications to the previously provided monthly or quarterly financials; and (z) restated monthly or quarterly financials for any impacted periods).
(c)    The Trustee shall have no duty to review or analyze any document or report furnished or made available to it. Delivery of the reports and documents described in Section 4.06(b) to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive or actual notice or knowledge of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an Officer’s Certificate).
(d)    The Company shall provide prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change to its fiscal year (it being expressly understood that the failure to provide such notice to the Trustee shall not be deemed a Default or Event of Default under this Indenture).
(e)    So long as any Notes are outstanding, within 10 Business Days after delivering or being deemed to have delivered to the Trustee annual or quarterly financial information required by Section 4.06(b), unless, in each case, the Company reasonably determines that to do so would conflict with applicable securities laws, including in connection with any pending offering of securities, the Company will hold a conference call with Holders, securities analysts and prospective investors to discuss such financial information for the relevant reporting period (it being understood that such conference call may be the same conference call as with the Company’s equity investors and analysts).  No fewer than two days prior to any such conference call, the Company will issue a press release announcing the time and date of such conference call 
64








and providing instructions for Holders, securities analysts and prospective investors to obtain access to such conference call.
Section 4.07    Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of, premium, if any,  or any interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(vii)    [Reserved];
(viii)    [Reserved];
(ix)    any non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company may make Restricted Payments (which may be in cash) to its shareholders, members or partners generally, so long as the Company or the Subsidiary which owns the Equity Interests in the Subsidiary making such Restricted Payment receives at least its proportionate share thereof (based upon its relative holding of the Equity Interests in the Subsidiary making such Restricted

(c)    For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.09, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in Section 4.09(b) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 4.09(a), the Company will be permitted to classify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock (based on circumstances existing on the date of such reclassification), in any manner that complies with this covenant. The accrual of interest, the accrual of dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the amortization of debt discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of interest in the form of additional shares of preferred Capital Stock or Disqualified Stock, the reclassification of Preferred Stock as Indebtedness due to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant, provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of the Company as accrued.
(d)    The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be:
(i)    the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount;
(ii)    the aggregate principal amount outstanding, in the case of Indebtedness issued with interest payable in kind;
(iii)    the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and
(iv)    in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified Person, the lesser of: (x) the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and (y) the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person.
(e)    For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the 
71








principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.09, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company may incur pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.
Section 4.10    Limitations on Liens.
(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries, to, directly or indirectly, create, incur or assume any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired by the Company, such Subsidiary; provided that in the case of Liens that constitute Permitted Liens securing Subordinated Indebtedness, the Notes and any applicable Guarantee are secured by a Lien on such property or assets of the Company or such Guarantor and the proceeds thereof that is senior in priority to such Liens pursuant to a Permitted Intercreditor Agreement.
(b)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of the Note Parties to, create, incur or assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired which Lien secures Indebtedness and is secured on a pari passu basis with the Note Obligations or higher in priority to the Liens securing the Notes other than Liens permitted pursuant to clause (j), (k), (w), (aa) and (dd) of the definition of Permitted Liens (and subject to the limitations set forth in such clauses).
Section 4.11    Limitations on Asset Sales.
(a)    The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale, unless (i) the Company (or the Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets, property or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the consummation of such Asset Sale or would be caused thereby and (iii) at least 75% of the consideration received from such Asset Sale (other than an Asset Sale consisting of the Specified Disposition (to which this clause (iii) shall not apply)) is, or will be when paid (in the case of milestones, royalties and other deferred payment obligations), in the form of cash or cash equivalents; provided that for purposes of this clause (iii), any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Company or such Subsidiary in respect of such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iii), not in excess of $250,000, with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, shall be deemed to be cash and (iv) an amount equal to 100% of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Sale is applied by purchasing (A) Notes as provided under Section 2.10 through open market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at a purchase price at or above 100% of the Then Current Principal Amount thereof plus the Interest Make-Whole Payment (calculated as set forth in Section 4.11(b)) (it being understood and agreed that the Net Available Cash shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of funds so paid in connection with such open market purchases) or (B) Notes tendered in an offer made by the Company (in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.11 for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Holders of the Notes to purchase the maximum Original Principal Amount of the Notes that may be purchased with such Net Available Cash at an offer price in an amount equal to 100% of the 
72








Then Current Principal Amount thereof plus the Interest Make-Whole Payment (calculated as set forth in Section 4.11(b)) plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of purchase; provided that, if the Issuer makes an offer to purchase the Notes pursuant to the foregoing proviso, the Issuer will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this clause (iv) and any amounts remaining after such offer to purchase will not be counted in the computation of Net Available Cash; provided further that, in connection with any purchase of Notes pursuant to this clause (iv), the Issuer will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so purchased.
(b)    On the 30th day after the amount of unapplied Net Available Cash exceeds $2,000,000, the Issuer will be required to make an offer (“Asset Sale Offer”) to all Holders of the Notes to purchase the maximum Original Principal Amount of the Notes that may be purchased out of the Net Available Cash at an offer price in an amount equal to 100% of the Then Current Principal Amount of the Notes plus the Interest Make-Whole Payment (calculated as of the date of such purchase, determined by the Issuer as if such purchase were a conversion of the Notes under Section 14.02(i) on the date of such purchase) plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the date of purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Indenture. In connection with an Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer will deliver written notice of such Asset Sale Offer as required under Section 4.11(f). The Issuer may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any Net Available Cash from an Asset Sale by making an Asset Sale Offer with respect to all Net Available Cash prior to the expiration of the relevant 30 days (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to any unapplied Net Available Cash. 
(c)    If the aggregate Then Current Principal Amount of the Notes surrendered in any Asset Sale Offer by Holders exceeds the maximum amount of Net Available Cash to be applied in such Asset Sale Offer, the Net Available Cash shall be allocated among the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis on the basis of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of tendered Notes. Upon consummation or expiration of any Asset Sale Offer, any remaining Net Available Cash may be used by the Issuer for any purpose not prohibited by this Indenture.
(d)    To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of the Notes is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount thereof payable in respect of the Notes shall not exceed the net amount of funds in U.S. dollars that is actually received by the Issuer upon converting such portion into U.S. dollars.
(e)    For the purposes of Section 4.11(a)(iii), the following will be deemed to be cash with respect to any Asset Sale:
(i)    the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness or other liabilities contingent or otherwise of the Issuer or a Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness of the Issuer or a Guarantor) and the release of the Issuer or such Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Sale (to the extent the Issuer or such Subsidiary would have had continuing liability for such Indebtedness or other liability);
(ii)    securities, notes or other obligations received by the Issuer or any Subsidiary of the Issuer from the transferee that are converted by the Issuer or such Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Sale;
(iii)    Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Subsidiary that is no longer a Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Sale, to the extent that the Issuer and each other 
73








Subsidiary have no continuing liability for the payment of such Indebtedness or other liabilities in connection with such Asset Sale; and
(iv)    consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Issuer (other than Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the Issue Date from Persons who are not the Issuer or any Subsidiary.
(f)    Upon the commencement of any Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer shall send, or cause to be sent, by first class mail or electronically, a notice to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and to each Holder at its registered address. The notice shall contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holder to tender Notes pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer. Such Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders. The notice, which shall govern the terms of such Asset Sale Offer, shall state:
(i)    that such Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 4.11 and that, to the extent lawful, all Notes tendered and not withdrawn shall be accepted for payment (unless prorated);
(ii)    the maximum amount of Net Available Cash to be applied in such Asset Sale Offer, the Asset Sale offer price, and the date on which Notes tendered and accepted for payment shall be purchased, which date shall be at least 30 days and not later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Asset Sale Payment Date”);
(iii)    that any Notes not tendered or accepted for payment shall continue to accrue interest in accordance with the terms thereof;
(iv)    that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such payment, any Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Asset Sale Payment Date;
(v)    that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer shall be required to surrender the Notes, with the Form of Option of Holder to Elect Purchase completed, to the Issuer, a Paying Agent or the Trustee at the address specified in the notice at least three Business Days before the Asset Sale Payment Date, or a Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice at least three (3) Business Days before the Asset Sale Payment Date;
(vi)    that Holders shall be entitled to withdraw their election if the Issuer, a Paying Agent or the Trustee receives, not later than three Business Days prior to the Asset Sale Payment Date, a notice setting forth the name of the Holder, the Original Principal Amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have such Note purchased;
(vii)    that if the aggregate Then Current Principal Amount of Notes surrendered by Holders pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer exceeds the maximum amount of Net Available Cash to be applied in such Asset Sale Offer, the Notes Registrar shall select the Notes to be purchased in the manner pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Notes Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate); and
(viii)    that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part shall be issued new Notes equal in Original Principal Amount to the unpurchased portion of the Original Principal Amount of the Notes surrendered.
74








(g)    If the Asset Sale Payment Date related to any Asset Sale Offer is on or after an Interest Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Interest Record Date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer.
(h)    On the Asset Sale Payment Date related to any Asset Sale Offer, the Issuer will, to the extent permitted by law,
(i)    accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer, and required to be purchased pursuant to this Section 4.11, or if the aggregate Then Current Principal Amount of Notes tendered by Holders pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer does not exceed the maximum amount of Net Available Cash to be applied in such Asset Sale Offer, all Notes tendered, and will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.11,
(ii)    deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price amount in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and accepted by the Company for purchase and the Trustee will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Asset Sale Payment Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and
(iii)    deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Issuer.
(i)    If in any Asset Sale Offer the aggregate Then Current Principal Amount of Notes tendered by Holders pursuant to such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the maximum amount of Net Available Cash to be applied in such Asset Sale Offer, the Company will promptly following the consummation of such Asset Sale Offer issue a new Note, and the Trustee, receipt of a Company Order, will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in an Original Principal Amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Original Principal Amount the Note surrendered.

(viii)    purchases or sales of goods and/or services with customers, suppliers, sales agents or sellers of goods and services in the ordinary course of business on terms

(b)    Issuer shall not, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any agreement that limits the ability of any Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to make a dividend or distribution payment to the Issuer or the Guarantors or to otherwise transfer any property to such Persons; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions in this Section 4.35(b) hereof will not apply to any limitation existing under or by reason of:
(i)    this Indenture, the Notes and the other Note Documents;
(ii)    the indenture that governs the Existing Convertible Notes and the “Note Documents” (as defined therein);
(iii)    applicable law, rule, regulation, order, approval, license, permit or similar restriction;
(iv)    any instrument governing Indebtedness or Equity Interests or any other agreement of a Person acquired by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Equity Interests was incurred or such agreement entered into in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, extensions, supplements, increases, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company, no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those in effect on the date of the acquisition; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was otherwise permitted to be incurred hereunder;
(v)    Capital Lease Obligations, purchase money obligations and other financings permitted under Section 4.09(b)(iv) hereof with respect to the assets subject to such financings;
(vi)    any agreement for the sale or other disposition of some or all of the Equity Interests of, or any property and assets of, a Subsidiary of the Company that restricts distributions by that Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition;
86








(vii)    Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are, in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company, not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;
(viii)    Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Sections 4.09 and 4.10 hereof that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens;
(ix)    provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in purchase sale agreements, hedging agreements, joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a Restricted Investment) which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements;
(x)    encumbrances or restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;
(xi)    any other agreement governing Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary that is permitted to be incurred under Section 4.09 hereof and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that either (a) such encumbrances or restrictions are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Indenture or (b) such encumbrances or restrictions are ordinary and customary in light of the type of Indebtedness being incurred and the jurisdiction of the obligor and, in the case where such obligor is a Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, so long as such encumbrances or restrictions will not affect in any material respect the Company’s or any Guarantor’s ability to repay the Notes, in each case as determined in the reasonable good faith judgment of an officer of the Company;
(xii)    customary provisions contained in leases, sub-leases, licenses or sub-licenses and other agreements, in each case, entered into in the ordinary course of business or as is typical in the same or similar industries in which the Company or its Subsidiaries engage from time to time;
(xiii)    restrictions in agreements or instruments that prohibit the payment or making of dividends other than on a pro rata basis; and 
(xiv)    arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof in any manner material to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof.
For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 4.35(b), (1) the priority of any preferred stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to distributions being paid on common stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Equity Interests and (2) the subordination of loans or advances made to the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company to other Indebtedness incurred by the Company or any such Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.
Section 4.36    Escrow of Funds. 
87








(a)    On the date hereof, the Company has deposited or caused to be deposited, from the proceeds of the Notes, with the Trustee into a non-interest bearing trust account (the “Escrow Account”) an amount equal to $14,511,010.30 (the “Escrowed Funds”). Any amounts received and held in the Escrow Account shall remain uninvested.
(b)    The Escrowed Funds will be held in the Escrow Account until the earlier of (i) the date on which all Escrowed Funds have been released pursuant to Escrow Release Letters (as defined in the Noteholder Agreement) delivered to the Trustee by the Requisite Holders pursuant to the terms of the Noteholder Agreement and (ii) the Escrow End Date.
(c)    It is understood and agreed that the Escrow Account and the contents thereof shall under no circumstance constitute property of the estate of the Company for any purpose until released by an Escrow Release Letter in accordance with the Noteholder Agreement. Upon receipt of written notice of the occurrence of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) from the Issuer or the Requisite Holders in accordance with the terms of the Noteholder Agreement and certifying to the same, the Trustee shall promptly distribute the Escrowed Funds in accordance with Section 6.05 hereof.  On and after any other Default or Event of Default hereunder (other than under Section 6.01(i) or 6.01(j)), the Trustee shall honor Escrow Release Letters (as defined in the Noteholder Agreement) delivered to the Trustee by the Requisite Holders and distribute the Escrowed Funds as directed.
(d)    Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee shall be entitled to honor the instructions set forth in the Escrow Release Letters or any other written direction in accordance with the Noteholder Agreement without any liability and has no duty, responsibility, or obligation to investigate or determine whether any such Escrow Release Letters or written directions are properly delivered pursuant to the terms of the Noteholder Agreement.
Section 4.37    Equity Raises. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to raise proceeds from an equity offering off its effective shelf registration statement.
ARTICLE 5

The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, semi-annually, not more than 15 days after each May 15 and November 15 in each year beginning with May 15, 2023, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such request (or such lesser time as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to enable it to timely provide any notice to be provided by it hereunder), a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of the Holders as of a date not more than 15 days (or such other date as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to so provide any such notices) prior to the time such information is furnished, except that no such list need be furnished so long as the Trustee is acting as Note Registrar.
Section 5.02    Preservation and Disclosure of Lists. (a) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar, if so acting.

(h)    a final judgment or judgments for the payment of $3,500,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) or more (excluding any amounts covered by insurance policies issued by insurers believed by the Company in good faith to be credit-worthy) in the aggregate rendered

(i)    the Company or any Subsidiary shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief (including any voluntary arrangement) with respect to the Company or any such Subsidiary or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency, administration, examinership or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, administrator, examiner, custodian or other similar official of the Company or any such Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors;

Section 6.02    Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), unless the principal of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of, premium, if any and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable. If the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or during the continuance of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j)), then the amount that becomes due and payable shall include (in addition to the other amounts described in the immediately-preceding sentence) a premium equal to the Redemption Premium calculated as of the date of such acceleration or date the Notes become due prior to the Maturity Date, determined as if such acceleration or due date were a Redemption Date pursuant to a Make-Whole Redemption of the Notes under Section 16.01(c) on the date of such acceleration or due date (regardless of whether any Make-Whole Redemption would otherwise be prohibited under Section 16.01(c) as of such acceleration or due date, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 16.04(a) or Section 16.04(b)); provided, however, that (i) solely for purposes of calculating such premium, the “Notes to be redeemed” as that term is used in the definition of Redemption Premium shall not include any Notes previously called for redemption prior to the date of such acceleration or the date the Notes became due prior to the Maturity Date, and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, no Holder shall be entitled to the Redemption Premium on such Notes that were previously called for redemption prior to such applicable date. Any Redemption Premium (including any Redemption Premium due as a result of the immediately-preceding sentence) shall be deemed to be principal of the Notes and interest shall accrue on the full principal amount of the Notes (including the amount of such Redemption Premium) from and after the applicable triggering event.
The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay installments of any accrued and unpaid interest upon all Notes, premium, and the principal of any and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of any accrued and unpaid interest to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, and on such principal, in each case, at the then-applicable interest rate borne by the Notes at such time) and amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, premium,  and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on Notes that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured or waived pursuant to Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Requisite Holders, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default 
91








arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal of, premium, or any accrued and unpaid interest on, any Notes, (ii) a failure to repurchase any Notes when required or (iii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes (including, without limitation, any Interest Make-Whole Payment).
Except as specifically provided for in this Indenture, each Holder has the right to maintain its investment in the Notes free from redemption or repayment by the Company and the provision for payment of a Redemption Premium in the first paragraph of this Section 6.02 by the Company in the event that the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or following an Event of Default is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that, if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or during the continuance of an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j)), the Redemption Premium with respect to a Make-Whole Redemption of the Notes under Section 16.01(c) (regardless of whether any Make-Whole Redemption would otherwise be prohibited under Section 16.01(c) as of such acceleration or due date, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 16.04) as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 6.02 will also be due and payable and shall constitute part of the Obligations with respect to the Notes to the extent provided in such paragraph, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the Company and the Holders to a reasonable calculation of each Holder’s lost profits and damages as the result thereof. Any such Redemption Premium shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Holder as the result of the early redemption or repayment, and the Company agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. Such Redemption Premium shall also be payable in the event the Notes (and/or this Indenture) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether or not by the power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, court order or by any other means. THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAWS THAT PROHIBITS THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Company expressly agrees (to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Redemption Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s-length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Redemption Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then-prevailing market rates at the time redemption or repayment is made; (C) no portion of the Redemption Premium represents “unmatured interest” within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. §502(b)(2); (D) there has been a course of conduct between Holders and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Redemption Premium; and (E) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Redemption Premium to Holders as herein described is a material inducement to Holders to purchase, exchange into, or otherwise accept the Notes.
Section 6.03    Additional Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) shall for the first 360 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not commence until the notice described in Section 6.01(f) above has been given and the related 60-day period described in Section 6.01(f) above shall have elapsed), consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes in cash at a rate equal 
92








to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the first 180 days during which such Event of Default is continuing and 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding from the 181st day to, and including, the 360th day during which such Event of Default is continuing. If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable as set forth in Section 2.03. On the 361st day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations under Section 4.06(b) is not cured or waived prior to such 361st day), the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. The provisions of this paragraph will not affect the rights of Holders of Notes in the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b). In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.03 or the Company elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional Interest when due, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. No Additional Interest shall accrue pursuant to this Section 6.03, and no right to declare the principal or other amounts due and payable in respect of the Notes shall exist, commencing on the date that the Event of Default has been cured; provided that such Event of Default is cured during such 360 day period.
In order to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 360 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify in writing all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such election on or before the close of business on the date on which such Event of Default first occurs stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date that such Additional Interest shall begin to accrue. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.
Section 6.04    Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a) or Section 6.01(b) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal, premium, if any, and interest, with interest on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest at the then-applicable interest rate borne by the Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee and Collateral Agent under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.
In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.04, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, premium, if any, Additional Interest, if any, and post-petition interest (regardless 
93








of whether allowed or allowable), if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and Collateral Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, each of their agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee and Collateral Agent under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, administrator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee and Collateral Agent any amount due to them for reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee and Collateral Agent under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.
Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.
All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.
In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party) the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings.
In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.09 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.
Section 6.05    Application of Monies Collected by Trustee. Any monies or property collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article 6 with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies or property, upon presentation of the several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid:
94








First, to the payment of all amounts due to the Trustee and Collateral Agent under Section 7.06;
Second, to payment of the whole amount then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal, if any, premium, if any, and, to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue installments of interest, payable upon such overdue amounts at the rate of interest then payable on such Notes, if any, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal, premium, if any, and any interest without preference or priority of principal over such interest, or of any interest over principal, premium or of any installment of interest over any other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal and any accrued and unpaid interest; and
Third, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.
Section 6.06    Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium, if any,  or any interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:
(a)    such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided;
(b)    Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder;
(c)    such Holders shall have offered, and if requested, provided to the Trustee such security or indemnity that is satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to be incurred therein or thereby (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee’s legal counsel);
(d)    the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of such security or indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; and
(e)    no direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by the Requisite Holders, within such 60-day period pursuant to Section 6.09, it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders), or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
95








Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, each Holder shall have the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (w) the principal  of, (x) premium, if any, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, which right shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.
Section 6.07    Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its sole discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law.
Section 6.08    Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this Article 6 to the Trustee or to the Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this Article 6 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders.
Section 6.09    Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Requisite Holders. The Requisite Holders shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (a) such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such security and/or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any costs, liabilities or expenses to be incurred therein or thereby (including fees and expenses of the Trustee’s legal counsel), (b) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (c) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction, (d) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would benefit some Holders to the detriment of other Holders or otherwise be unduly prejudicial to the Holders not joining therein and (e) the Trustee may decline to take any action that would involve the Trustee in personal liability, subject it to reputational harm or be unduly prejudicial to Holders of Notes not joining therein, it being understood that the Trustee shall have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearance are unduly prejudicial to such Holders. Prior to taking any such action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such direction is unduly prejudicial to any Holder) or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Requisite Holders may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal of, or premium, if any, on, the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Company to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or 
96








provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
Section 6.10    Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, promptly after the occurrence and continuance of a Default of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice, deliver to all Holders notice of all Defaults known to a Responsible Officer, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice.
Section 6.11    Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, on, or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note on or after the due date expressed or provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note, or receive the consideration due upon conversion, in accordance with the provisions of Article 14.

The Trustee shall not be obligated to take possession of any Ordinary Shares, whether upon conversion or in connection with any discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 3 hereof, but shall satisfy its obligation as Conversion Agent by working through the stock transfer agent of the Company from time to time as directed by the Company.
Section 7.06    Compensation and Expenses of Trustee; Indemnity. The Company and Guarantors, jointly and severally, covenant and agree to pay to the Trustee and Collateral Agent from time to time, and each of the Trustee and Collateral Agent shall be entitled to, compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder and under the Note Security Documents in any capacity (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing from time to time between the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee and Collateral Agent upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee and Collateral Agent in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture and the Note Security Documents in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents, professional advisors and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ).

The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee or Collateral Agent. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee and Collateral Agent.
101








Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.
Section 7.07    Officer’s Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such Officer’s Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.
Section 7.08    Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder that is a corporation or other legal entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof that is authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trustee power, that is subject to supervision or examination by the U.S. federal and state authorities and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least the minimum amount required by the Trust Indenture Act. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 7.08, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Company may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.08, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.
Section 7.09    Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the Company and by delivering notice thereof to the Holders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon 10 Business Days’ notice to the Company and the Holders, appoint a successor trustee identified in such notice or may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee, or if any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months (or since the date of this Indenture) may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee.
(a)    In case at any time any of the following shall occur:
(i)    the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or
(ii)    the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding, or a receiver of 
102








the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,
then, in either case, the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months (or since the date of this Indenture) may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.
(b)    The Requisite Holders, as determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may at any time with 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company and the Trustee remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within 10 days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a) provided, may petition, at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee.
(c)    Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10.
(d)    Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.09, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.06 hereof shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.
(e)    The Trustee shall not be liable for any action or inaction on the part of any successor trustee.
Section 7.10    Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.09 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.
103








Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders, as provided in this Indenture. If the Company fails to deliver such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be delivered at the expense of the Company.
Section 7.11    Succession by Merger, Etc. Any corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or to which the Trustee may sell or transfer all or substantially all of its corporate trust business, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.08.
In case at the time such successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.
Section 7.12    Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable to the Company for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall not be less than three Business Days after the date any Officer that the Company has indicated to the Trustee should receive such application is deemed to receive such application in accordance with Section 18.03, unless any such Officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of any omission), the Trustee shall have received written instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action, the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced  by any instrument or 
104








any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing. Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than 15 days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action.
Section 8.02    Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 7.02, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar. 
Section 8.03    Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any,  and (subject to Section 2.03) any accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other purposes under this Indenture; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sums or Ordinary Shares so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note.
Section 8.04    Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, by any Subsidiary thereof or by any Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, a Subsidiary thereof or an Affiliate of the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer’s Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination.
Section 8.05    Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, 
105








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

(k)    make any modification to the provisions of Section 4.06 or Section 6.05.
In addition, any amendment to, or waiver of, the provisions of this Indenture or any Note Document that has the effect of releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens securing the Note Obligations will require the consent of the Supermajority Holders, other than in connection with a credit bid or similar out of court sale, including a UCC sale, which shall require the consent of the Majority Holders.
Upon the written request of the Company, accompanied by a copy of the resolutions of the Board of Directors authorizing the execution of any supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent (if applicable) shall join with the Company in the execution of such amendment or supplement unless such amendment or supplement affects the Trustee’s or Collateral Agent’s (if applicable) own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture, any other Note Document or otherwise, in which case the Trustee or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

After any such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall deliver to the Holders a notice briefly describing such supplemental indenture. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the supplemental indenture.
The Company shall communicate any and all requests regarding any amendments or modifications to, and waivers of, the provisions of this Indenture or any Note Document to each Initial Holder that holds any Notes or a beneficial interest therein, whether or not the consent of such Initial Holder(s) is required to effectuate such amendment, modification and/or waiver.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 may, at the Company’s expense, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any 
108








modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may, at the Company’s expense, be prepared and executed by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent duly appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 18.09) and delivered in exchange for the Notes then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding.
Section 10.05    Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished Trustee. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article 10 if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not impose any personal obligations on the Trustee or adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.  If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it.  In executing any amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an indemnity and/or security satisfactory to it and shall also be entitled to receive  and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 18.05, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and that such amendment, supplement or waiver has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and any Guarantors party thereto, enforceable against them in accordance with its terms, subject to customary exceptions, and complies with the provisions hereof.

For purposes of this Section 11.01, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company to another Person.
The provisions set forth in this Section 11.01 shall not restrict (and shall not apply to): (i) any Subsidiary consolidating with, merging with or into, or selling, conveying, transferring or leasing all or substantially all of its assets to the Company and (ii) the creation of a new Guarantor.

Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the Company to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), upon compliance with this Article 11 the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner prescribed in this Article 11) may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes.
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.
Section 11.03    Opinion of Counsel to Be Given to Trustee. No such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease shall be effective unless the Trustee and Collateral Agent shall have received an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Article 11.

ARTICLE 13
GUARANTEES
Section 13.01    Guarantees. (a) Subject to this Article 13, each of the Guarantors hereby, as a primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and their successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the obligations of the Company hereunder or thereunder, that:
(i)    the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes and such other Note Obligations will be promptly paid in full in cash when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full in cash or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof, and
(ii)    in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations (including Note Obligations), that same will be promptly paid in full in cash when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise.
Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.
(b)    The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any amendment, waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Company or any other Guarantor, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim based on diligence, promptness, presentment, requirements for any demand or notice hereunder including any of the following: (i) any demand for payment or performance and protest and notice of protest; (ii) any notice of acceptance; (iii) any presentment, demand, protest or further notice or other requirements of any kind with respect to any Note Obligation (including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) becoming immediately due and payable; and (iv) any other notice in respect of any Note Obligation or any part thereof, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Company or any Guarantor. No obligation of any Guarantor hereunder shall be discharged other than by complete performance. Each Guarantor further waives any right such Guarantor may have under any applicable requirement of law to require the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder to seek recourse first against the Company or any other Person, or to realize upon any Collateral for any of the Note Obligations, as a condition precedent to enforcing such Guarantor’s liability and obligations under this Article 13.
(c)    If any Holder, the Trustee or the Collateral Agent is required by any court or otherwise to return any amount paid by the Company or any Guarantor to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or such Holder, this Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and effect.
(d)    Each Guarantor further unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to (x) enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation or any right of reimbursement or contribution or 
111








similar right against the Company or any Guarantor by reason of any Note Document or any payment made thereunder or (y) assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim it may have against the Company or any other Guarantor or set off any of its obligations to the Company or any other Guarantor against obligations of such Guarantor to the Company or such other Guarantor. in each case, until payment in full in cash of all obligations (including the Note Obligations) guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Section 6.02 for the purposes of this Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Guarantee.
(e)    Without limiting the joint and several obligations of the Guarantors to the Trustee, Collateral Agent and Holders, all Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Indenture. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under its Guarantee of the Notes such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors, multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under its guarantee of the Notes in respect of the obligations guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under its guarantee of the Notes that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state or other applicable law, provided that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 13.01, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of its guarantee of the Notes (including in respect of this Section 13.01), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 13.01. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. Each Guarantor is a third-party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 13.01. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Guarantors shall not have the right to seek contribution from the Company and any non-paying Guarantor until payment in full in cash of all Note Obligations.
(f)    Each Guarantor also agrees to pay any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder in enforcing any rights under this Section 13.01.
Section 13.02    Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 
112








(a)    Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such parties that the Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of applicable Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal or state or other applicable law to the extent applicable to any Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of such Guarantor will be limited to the maximum amount that will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 13, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its Guarantee, and the waivers set forth herein, are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantee of any Guarantor organized outside the United States of America may be limited as necessary to (1) comply with applicable law, (2) avoid any general legal limitations such as general statutory limitations, financial assistance, maintenance of share capital, corporate benefit, “thin capitalization” rules, retention of title claims or similar matters, or (3) avoid a conflict with the fiduciary duties of such company’s directors, contravention of any legal prohibition or regulatory condition, or the material risk of personal or criminal liability for any officers or directors, in each case of clause (1) through (3), as reasonably determined by the Company. Not in limitation of the immediately preceding sentence but in furtherance thereof and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Document, (1) the liabilities and obligations of any Guarantor incorporated in Finland under the Note Documents shall be limited if and only to the extent it would constitute (i) financial assistance within the meaning of Chapter 13, Section 10 of the Finnish Companies Act (Fi: osakeyhtiölaki, 624/2006, as amended), (ii) unlawful distribution of assets within the meaning of Chapter 13, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act or (iii) a breach of other applicable mandatory provisions of the Finnish Companies Act, and (2) in respect of each Irish Note Party, the Guarantee of such Irish Note Party shall not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in such Guarantee (i) constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Section 82 of the Irish Companies Act or (ii) constituting a breach of Section 239 of the Irish Companies Act. Each Irish Guarantor acknowledges that to the extent that this guarantee has been validated under Section 202 of the Irish Companies Act it shall not constitute unlawful financial assistance under Section 82 of the Irish Companies Act and to the extent that Section 243 of the Irish Companies Act applies it shall not constitute a breach of Section 239 of the Irish Companies Act.
Section 13.03    Execution and Delivery of Guarantee and Supplemental Indenture. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its execution and delivery of this Indenture or, if applicable, a Supplemental Indenture substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B with such modifications as the Company reasonably determines are appropriate to comply with the Agreed Guarantee Principles, in each case, by one of its officers or authorized representatives, shall evidence its Guarantee set forth in Section 13.01 without the need for notation on the Notes.
Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Guarantee set forth in Section 13.01 will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee.
If an officer or authorized representative whose signature is on this Indenture or on the Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note on which a Guarantee is endorsed, the Guarantee will be valid nevertheless.
113








The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, will be deemed to constitute due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.
Section 13.04    Guarantors May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Except as otherwise provided in Section 13.04, a Guarantor may not, directly or indirectly, (1) consolidate with or merge with or into, or (2) sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to (whether or not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), any other Person, other than the Company or another Guarantor, unless:
(a)    immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby; and
(b)    either:
(i)    the Person acquiring the property in any such Disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company or another Guarantor) expressly assumes, by executing and delivering a supplemental indenture to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in accordance with Article 10 hereof, all of the obligations of that Guarantor under its Guarantee, this Indenture and, if a Guarantor, all appropriate Note Security Documents; or
(ii)    such transaction is permitted by Section 4.08 and Section 4.11.
In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, of the Guarantee of such Guarantor and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by such Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; provided, however, that the Guarantee of such successor Person will remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse on each Note a notation of such Guarantee. All the Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution.
Except as set forth in Article 4, and notwithstanding Section 13.04(a), Section 13.04(b)(i) and Section 13.04(b)(ii) above, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will prevent any consolidation, amalgamation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Company or a Guarantor, or will prevent any Disposition of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or a Guarantor. 
Section 13.05    Releases. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Guarantee of any Guarantor, and the Collateral Agent’s Lien on the Collateral of such Guarantor, will be automatically released:
(a)    in connection with any Disposition of all of the Equity Interests or all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor (including by way of merger or consolidation) to such Person that is not the Company or a Guarantor if the Disposition does not violate Section 4.11 and the other provisions of this Indenture; and
114








(b)    upon the liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor following the transfer of all of its assets to the Company or another Guarantor as permitted hereunder.
If the Guarantee of any Guarantor or all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor or the Equity Interests of any Guarantor are sold or disposed of in the manner described in clauses (a) or (b) above, and such Guarantor (or as the context may require, Collateral) is released, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee and Collateral Agent an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating and certifying the identity of the released Guarantor (and/or the applicable Collateral), the basis for release in reasonable detail and that such release complies with this Indenture. Upon delivery by the Company to the Trustee and Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the conditions of any of clauses (a) or (b) of this Section 13.05 have been met with respect to a Guarantor (or such Collateral) in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Trustee and Collateral Agent, as applicable, will execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company that are necessary or advisable in order to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee and/or the applicable Note Security Documents. Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Guarantee as provided in this Section 13.05 will remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest and premium, if any, on the Notes and for the other obligations (including the Note Obligations) of any Guarantor under this Indenture as provided in this Article 13 notwithstanding the release of any other Guarantor.
Section 13.06    Reliance. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Company, each other Guarantor and any other guarantor, maker or endorser of any Note Obligation or any part thereof, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any Note Obligation or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and each Holder shall not have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or any Holder, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any Guarantor, then the Trustee, Collateral Agent or such Holder shall be under no obligation to (a) undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (b) disclose any information that such Person, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (c) make any future disclosures of such information or any other information to any Guarantor.
ARTICLE 14
CONVERSION OF NOTES
Section 14.01    Conversion Privilege. Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 14, each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 Original Principal Amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note at an initial conversion rate of 1,451.7581 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment as provided in this Article 14, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to, and in accordance with, the settlement provisions of Section 14.02, the “Conversion Obligation”) prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date.
Section 14.02    Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.
(a)    Subject to this Section 14.02, Section 14.03(b), Section 14.07(a) and Section 14.13, upon conversion of any Note, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of the Original Principal Amount of Notes being converted, a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Then Current Principal Amount of such Note by (y) the Conversion Price in effect on the Conversion 
115








Date, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share in accordance with Section 14.02(k), and the Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable, as set forth in this Section 14.02.
(b)    Subject to Section 14.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (1) complete, manually sign and deliver a notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and state in writing therein the Original Principal Amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation (and any Interest Make-Whole Payment) to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and (4) if required, pay funds equal to any interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h). The Trustee (or if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article 14 on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of Conversion with respect to any Notes may be delivered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered to the Company an election to have any Notes purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer, Fundamental Change Offer or Springing Repurchase Offer in respect of such Notes and has not validly withdrawn such election in accordance with Section 15.03(b) or Section 15.05, as the case may be.
If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Obligation and Interest Make-Whole Payment, if applicable, with respect to such Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered.
(c)    A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in Section 14.02(b). Except as set forth in Section 14.03(b) and Section 14.07(a), the Company shall deliver the consideration due in respect of the Conversion Obligation and the Interest Make-Whole Payment on the second Trading Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. If any Ordinary Shares are due to a converting Holder, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver (if applicable) to the Conversion Agent or to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, the full number of Ordinary Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, in book-entry format through the Depositary (if such facilities are then available), in satisfaction of the Company’s Conversion Obligation, which, on or after the earlier of (i) the six month anniversary of the Issue Date or any later date of original issue of Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement, or (ii) the Effective Date, shall be free of restrictive legends and trading restrictions, notwithstanding the provision of Section 2.05(d) hereof.  
In the event Ordinary Shares are being delivered in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph as first being issued without a restrictive legend in reliance on any Holder’s intention to resell such Ordinary Shares in reliance on Rule 144, such Holder shall, at the time of delivery of the related conversion notice, represent to the Company and its counsel that (i) it intends to sell such Ordinary Shares prior to the filing date of the Company’s next periodic report and (ii) if such Ordinary Shares are not sold by such filing date and such Ordinary Shares are no longer eligible for resale under Rule 144, such Holder will deliver such shares (including as applicable by book-entry transfer through the facilities of DTC) to the Transfer Agent or to the Company to have the restrictive legend placed back on such certificates representing such Ordinary  Shares (and in the case of any Warrant Shares delivered through the facilities of DTC, the Company shall issue physical certificates in exchange for such Ordinary Shares so delivered).
116








If in respect of a conversion the Company fails for any reason to deliver to any Holder such Ordinary Shares on the second Trading Day following the Conversion Date (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall pay to such Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Original Principal Amount of Notes being converted, $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth (5th) Trading Day after such liquidated damages begin to accrue) for each Trading Day after such Share Delivery Date until such Conversion Shares are delivered to such Holder or such Holder rescinds such conversion.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue actual damages or declare an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.02 hereof for the Company’s failure to deliver Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Notes within the period specified herein and such Holder shall have the right to pursue all remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief.  The exercise of any such rights shall not prohibit a Holder from seeking to enforce damages pursuant to any other Section hereof or under applicable law.
In addition to any other rights available to a Holder, if the Company fails for any reason to deliver to such Holder such Ordinary Shares upon conversion by the Share Delivery Date in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.02(c), and if after such Share Delivery Date such Holder is required by its brokerage firm to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise), or such Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, Ordinary Shares to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by such Holder of the Ordinary Shares which such Holder was entitled to receive upon the conversion relating to such Share Delivery Date (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to such Holder (in addition to any other remedies available to or elected by such Holder) the amount, if any, by which (x) such Holder’s total purchase price (including any brokerage commissions) for the Ordinary Shares so purchased exceeds (y) the product of (1) the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that such Holder was entitled to receive from the conversion at issue multiplied by (2) the actual sale price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed (including any brokerage commissions) and (B) at the option of such Holder, either reissue (if surrendered) the Note in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of the attempted conversion (in which case such conversion shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to such Holder the number of Ordinary Shares that would have been issued if the Company had timely complied with its delivery requirements under this Section 14.02(c).  For example, if a Holder purchases Ordinary Shares having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted conversion of Notes with respect to which the actual sale price of the Ordinary Shares to be issued upon conversion (including any brokerage commissions) and giving rise to such purchase obligation was a total of $10,000 under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall be required to pay such Holder $1,000.  An applicable Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to such Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss.  Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Ordinary Shares upon conversion of Notes as required under this Indenture.
(d)    In case any Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate Original Principal Amount equal to the unconverted portion of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of the surrendered Note or Notes, without payment of any service charge by the converting Holder but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such conversion being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such conversion.
117








(e)    If a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any Ordinary Shares upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
(f)    Except as provided in Section 14.04, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any Ordinary Shares issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14.
(g)    [Reserved].
(h)    Subject to Section 14.02(i) and except as set forth below, upon any conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Subject to Section 14.02(i) and except as set forth below, the Company’s settlement of the full Conversion Obligation (and any Interest Make-Whole Payment) shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the Then Current Principal Amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on an Interest Record Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Interest Record Date shall receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Interest Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall be required (1) for conversions following the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date or Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after an Interest Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the date on which the corresponding interest payment is made; (3) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note; or (4) for any conversion of Notes as to which an Interest Make-Whole Payment is payable (or Section 14.02(i) is otherwise applicable). Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all Holders of record on the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date shall receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date regardless of whether their Notes have been converted following such Interest Record Date.
(i)    Upon any conversion, other than a conversion “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, Springing Repurchase Offer, a Make-Whole Redemption or a Tax Redemption, the Company will, in addition to the other consideration payable or deliverable in connection with such conversion, make an interest make-whole payment to the converting Holder equal to the sum of the remaining scheduled payments of interest that would have been made on the Notes to be converted had such Notes remained outstanding from the Conversion Date to and including the Maturity Date (the “Interest Make-Whole Payment”); provided that if the applicable Conversion Date occurs after the close of business on an Interest Record Date but prior to the open of business on the Interest Payment Date corresponding to such Interest Record Date, the Company shall not pay accrued interest to any converting Holder and will instead pay the full amount of the relevant interest payment on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record on such Interest Record Date.  In such case, the Interest Make-Whole Payment to such converting Holder will equal all remaining interest payments, starting with the next Interest Payment Date for which interest has not been provided for to and including the Maturity Date.  For purposes of determining the Interest Make-Whole Payment, the Applicable Annual 
118








Rate shall be the rate applicable to interest payments to be made solely in cash, unless the Company elects to deliver Ordinary Shares in order to effect such payment, in which case, the Applicable Annual Rate shall be the rate applicable to interest payments to be paid partially in cash and partially in the form of PIK Interest in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03.  The Company shall pay the Interest Make-Whole Payment either (A) in cash or (B) if the Beneficial Ownership Limitations would not limit such payment, by delivery of Ordinary Shares, with the value of each Ordinary Share so delivered equal to 95% of the simple average of the Daily VWAP for the 5 consecutive Trading Days beginning on, and including, the fifth Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Conversion Date (the “Interest Make-Whole Valuation Period”), provided such price exceeds the minimum price permitted by the New York Stock Exchange (or such other principal U.S. stock exchange on which the Ordinary Shares may be listed). In the event a per-share value equal to 95% of the simple average of the Daily VWAPs for the Interest Make-Whole Valuation Period is less than the minimum price permitted by the New York Stock Exchange, the Company shall pay the Interest Make-Whole Payment in cash. The Company shall notify the converting Holder of the Company’s election to pay the Interest Make-Whole Payment in Ordinary Shares no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not elect to pay any Interest Make-Whole Payment through the delivery of Ordinary Shares if, at the time of such election, a resale registration statement is not effective (or is not reasonably expected to remain effective at all times from and after the date of such election until the date that is 90 days following the date of such election) and a resale prospectus has not been made available to Holders (or is not reasonably expected to remain available to Holders at all times from and after the date of such election until the date that is 90 days following the date of such election) in each case relating to resales of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes as contemplated by the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement, regardless of whether the failure of such registration statement to be effective or the non-availability of such resale prospectus constitutes a Registration Default, as such term is defined in the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement.
(j)    The Person in whose name the Ordinary Shares shall be issuable upon conversion shall be treated as a shareholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for conversion.
(k)    The Company shall not issue any fractional Ordinary Share upon conversion of the Notes (including any Ordinary Shares to be issued in connection with an Interest Make-Whole Payment) and shall instead pay cash in lieu of delivering any fractional Ordinary Share issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP for the relevant Conversion Date.
(l)    If certificates or other instruments representing Ordinary Shares are delivered in satisfaction of any Interest Make-Whole Payment, such Ordinary Shares shall either be (i) freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (or Holders that were not the Company’s Affiliates at any time during the three immediately preceding months) pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 or pursuant to the exclusion from registration under the Securities Act provided by Regulation S, or (ii) subject to resale pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act and whose use has not been suspended by the Company.
Section 14.03    Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Make-Whole Fundamental Changes, a Springing Repurchase Offer or Tax Redemption and Registration Defaults. 
(a)    If the Effective Date of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole 
119








Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional Ordinary Shares (the “Additional Shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related repurchase date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the proviso in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the 25th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change) (such period, the “Make-Whole Fundamental Change Period”).
(b)    Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 14.03(a), the Company shall, if required, satisfy the related Conversion Obligation based on the Conversion Rate as increased to reflect the Additional Shares pursuant to the table below in accordance with Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property following such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Share Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Share Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation (and any applicable Interest Make-Whole Payment) shall be paid to Holders in cash on the second Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify the Holders of Notes (which notification may be made through the Depositary), the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change and issue a press release announcing such Effective Date no later than five (5) Business Days after such Effective Date.
(c)    The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”), and the price paid (or deemed to be paid) per Ordinary Share in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change (the “Share Price”). If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive in exchange for their Ordinary Shares only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Share Price shall be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the Share Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change.  The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the Share Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date (as such term is used in Section 14.04) or expiration date of the event occurs during such ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period.
(d)    The Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of the Notes is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Share Prices shall equal the Share Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment giving rise to the Share Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 14.04.
120








(e)    The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 14.03 for each Share Price and Effective Date set forth below:


																																	
		Share Price
	Effective Date	$0.6262	$0.6500	$0.6888	$0.7500	$0.8500	$1.0000	$1.2500	$1.5000	$1.7220	$2.2500
	October 25, 2022	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	62.3219	30.1086	14.0956	0.2419

	May 15, 2024	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	46.0819	20.4419	8.2884	-
	May 15, 2025	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	69.1313	62.0419	25.8419	9.7752	2.7134	-
	May 15, 2026	69.1313	69.1313	-	-	-	-	-	-	-	-




(f)    The exact Share Price and Effective Date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case:
(i)    if the Share Price is between two Share Prices in the table above or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Share Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;
(ii)    if the Share Price is greater than $2.2500 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 14.03(d)), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and
(iii)    if the Share Price is less than $0.6262 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to Section 14.03(d)), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 1,520.8894 Ordinary Shares, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04.
(g)    Nothing in this Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
(h)    The Conversion Rate for Notes surrendered for conversion “in connection with a Springing Repurchase Offer” shall be subject to increase by a number of Additional Shares, if any, in accordance with the provisions of Section 15.04. The Conversion Rate for Notes surrendered "in connection with a Tax Redemption" or “in connection with a Make-Whole Redemption” shall be subject to increase by a number of Additional Shares, if any, in accordance with the provisions of Section 16.05.  In the event that a conversion "in connection with" a 
121








Springing Repurchase Offer or a Tax Redemption or a Make-Whole Redemption would also be deemed to be a conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, a Holder of the Notes to be converted will be entitled to a single increase to the Conversion Rate using the applicable Share Price and Effective Date that would yield the largest number of Additional Shares.
(i)    In addition to, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, if a Holder submits a Note for conversion during a period when a Registration Default (which has the meaning ascribed to “Event” in Section 2(d) in the Registration Rights Agreement) exists, the Company shall increase the Conversion Rate by 5.0% for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted at a time when such Registration Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Registration Default occurs after a Holder has converted a Note for Ordinary Shares, such Holder shall not be entitled to any compensation with respect to such Ordinary Shares or such converted Note. 
Section 14.04    Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 14.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.
(a)    If the Company exclusively issues Ordinary Shares as a dividend or distribution on the Ordinary Shares, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:
CR’ = CR0 × (OS’ ÷ OS0)
where,
									
	CR0
	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;
	CR’	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date, as applicable;
	OS0
	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date (before giving effect to any such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination), as applicable; and
	OS’	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as applicable.




Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as 
122








applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.
(b)    If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares any rights, options or warrants (other than pursuant to a shareholder rights plan of the Company) entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 calendar days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR’ = CR0 × (OS0 + X) ÷ (OS0 + Y)
where,
									
	CR0
	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance;
	CR’	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
	OS0
	=	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
	X	=	the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and
	Y	=	the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of the issuance of such rights, options or warrants.




Any increase made under this Section 14.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that Ordinary Shares are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Ordinary Shares actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.
For purposes of this Section 14.04(b), in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders of the Ordinary Shares to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares 
123








at a price per share less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Ordinary Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors.
(c)    If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property of the Company or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, excluding (i) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 14.04(a) or Section 14.04(b) (or will be so effected in accordance with the second sentence of Section 14.04(j)), (ii) except as set forth in Section 14.13, rights issued under a shareholder rights plan of the Company, (iii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which the provisions set forth in Section 14.04(d) shall apply, and (iv) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.04(c) shall apply, (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR’ = CR0 × (SP0 ÷ (SP0 – FMV))
where,
									
	CR0
	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
	CR’	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
	SP0
	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
	FMV	=	the Fair Market Value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding Ordinary Shares on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.




Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Ordinary Shares receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors 
124








determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
CR’ = CR0 × ((FMV0 + MP0) ÷ MP0)
where,
									
	CR0
	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;
	CR’	=	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;
	FMV0
	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Ordinary Shares applicable to one Ordinary Share (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references therein to Ordinary Shares were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”) provided that if there is no Last Reported Sale Price of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Ordinary Shares on such Ex-Dividend Date, the Valuation Period shall be the first ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period after, and including, the first date such Last Reported Sale Price is available; and

	MP0
	=	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the Valuation Period.




The increase to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided that if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period, references to “10” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Spin-Off to, and including, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If any dividend or distribution that constitutes a Spin-Off is declared but not paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay or 
125








make such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared or announced.
For purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and subject in all respect to Section 14.13), rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of the Ordinary Shares entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Ordinary Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such Ordinary Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Ordinary Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) will be required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 14.04(c). If any such right, option or warrant, including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights, options or warrants shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) was made, (1) in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, (x) the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share purchase price received by a holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase and (2) in the case of such rights, options or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.
For purposes of Section 14.04(a), Section 14.04(b) and this Section 14.04(c), if any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable also includes one or both of:
(A)    a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares to which Section 14.04(a) is applicable (the “Clause A Distribution”); or
(B)    a dividend or distribution of rights, options or warrants to which Section 14.04(b) is applicable (the “Clause B Distribution”),
then, in either case, (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 14.04(a) and Section 14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the “Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution 
126








and (II) any Ordinary Shares included in the Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(b).
(d)    If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

						
	where,	
	CR0     =
	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

	CR’    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
	SP0     =
	the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

	C     =	the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares.




Any increase pursuant to this Section 14.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Ordinary Shares, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution.
(e)    If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Ordinary Shares (other than an odd lot tender offer), to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Ordinary Share exceeds the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:
127









						
	where,	
	CR0    =
	 the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

	CR’    =	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
	AC    =	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for Ordinary Shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
	OS0    = 
	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all Ordinary Shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

	OS’    =	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all Ordinary Shares accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
	SP’    =	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.




The increase to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(e) shall occur at the close of business on the 10th Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; provided that if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the expiration date of any tender or exchange offer, references to “10” or “10th” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date that such tender or exchange offer expires to, and including, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If the Company is obligated to purchase Ordinary Shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in Section 14.04(e) but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are rescinded, the applicable Conversion Rate will be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that 
128








would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have been made.
(f)    Notwithstanding this Section 14.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes, if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date, and a Holder that has converted its Notes on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of the Ordinary Shares as of the related Conversion Date as described under Section 14.02(j) based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date, then, notwithstanding the Conversion Rate adjustment provisions in this Section 14.04, the Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for the Notes converted by such converting Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the Ordinary Shares on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.
(g)    Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or the right to purchase Ordinary Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities.
(h)    In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this Section 14.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Ordinary Shares or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares (or rights to acquire Ordinary Shares) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall deliver to the Holder of each Note a notice of the increase at least 15 days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.
(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted:
(i)    upon the issuance of Ordinary Shares at a price below the Conversion Price then in effect or otherwise, other than any such issuance described in clause (a), clause (b) or clause (c) of this Section 14.04;
(ii)    upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in Ordinary Shares under any plan;
(iii)    upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit or incentive plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries;
(iv)    upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (iii) of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued;
129








(v)    for a third-party tender offer by any party other than a tender offer by one or more of the Company’s Subsidiaries as described in Section 14.04(e);
(vi)    upon the repurchase of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to an open market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction, including structured or derivative transactions such as accelerated share repurchase transactions or similar forward repurchase transactions, or other buy-back transaction, that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the kind described in Section 14.04(e);
(vii)    solely for a change in the nominal or par value of the Ordinary Shares (if applicable); or
(viii)    for accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
(j)    All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share. If an adjustment to the Conversion Rate otherwise required pursuant to Section 14.04(a) through (e) would result in a change of less than one percent to the Conversion Rate, then, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at its election, defer and carry forward such adjustment, except that all such deferred adjustments must be given effect immediately upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) when all such deferred adjustments would result in an aggregate change of at least 1% to the Conversion Rate; (ii) on the Conversion Date for any Notes; (iii) on the effective date of any Fundamental Change and/or Make-Whole Fundamental Change; and (iv) the date, if any, on which the Company provides a notice of Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption or of a Springing Repurchase Offer.
(k)    Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume without inquiry that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall deliver such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.
(l)    For purposes of this Section 14.04, the number of Ordinary Shares at any time outstanding shall not include Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include Ordinary Shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Ordinary Shares.
Section 14.05    Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices, or the Daily VWAPs, over a span of multiple days (including, without limitation, the period for determining the Share Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date, Effective Date or expiration date, as the case may be, of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices, or the Daily VWAPs, are to be calculated.
130








Section 14.06    Shares to Be Fully Paid. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient Ordinary Shares to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming delivery of the maximum number of Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03 and that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder).
Section 14.07    Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Ordinary Shares.
(a)    In the case of:
(i)    any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Ordinary Shares (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination or solely from a change of nominal or par value or to no nominal or par value),
(ii)    any consolidation, merger or combination involving the Company,
(iii)    any Disposition to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety or
(iv)    any statutory share exchange,
in each case, as a result of which the Ordinary Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Share is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee (and without the consent of the Holders) a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(g) providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Merger Event any Ordinary Shares that the Company would have been required to deliver upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Ordinary Shares would have received in such Merger Event.
If the Merger Event causes the Ordinary Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Ordinary Shares, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to one Ordinary Share. If the holders of the Ordinary Shares receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Merger Event (A) the consideration due upon conversion of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03), multiplied by the price paid per Ordinary Share in 
131








such Merger Event and (B) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying such cash amount to converting Holders on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.
The supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 14. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets of a Person other than the successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the Notes as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including the provisions providing for the purchase rights set forth in Article 15.
(b)    When the Company executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 14.07(a), the Company shall promptly deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a unit of Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly deliver notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the execution of such supplemental indenture to be delivered to each Holder within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture.
(c)    The Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.07. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of Notes to convert its Notes into Ordinary Shares, as set forth in Section 14.01 and Section 14.02 prior to the effective date of such Merger Event.
(d)    The above provisions of this Section 14.07(d) shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.
Section 14.08    [Reserved]. 
Section 14.09    Certain Covenants.  (a)  The Company covenants that all Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
(a)    The Company further covenants that if at any time the Ordinary Shares shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated quotation system the Company will use reasonable best efforts to list and keep listed, so long as the Ordinary Shares shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes.
Section 14.10    Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any 
132








Ordinary Shares, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder and any other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any Ordinary Shares or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.07 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 14.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate (which the Company shall be obligated to deliver to the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. None of the Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder, the Conversion Agent or any of their agents shall be responsible for monitoring or determining whether any Beneficial Ownership Limitations have been met and shall be entitled to rely conclusively on written notice provided by the Company as to such matters and any other matters with respect to the Ordinary Shares. The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including without limitation its right to be compensated, reimbursed and indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, including its capacity as Conversion Agent.
Section 14.11    Beneficial Ownership Limitations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, no Holder will be entitled to receive Ordinary Shares upon conversion of Notes and no conversion of Notes shall take place to the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt (or conversion) would cause such Holder and its Affiliates to beneficially own shares in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates shall include the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of any Notes with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Ordinary Shares which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted principal amount of Notes beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, any other Notes) beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this provision, beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any purported delivery of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Notes shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that such delivery would result in the converting Holder violating the Beneficial Ownership Limitations.
(a)    To the extent that the limitation contained in this provision applies, the determination of whether any Notes are convertible (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and of which principal amount of such Notes are convertible shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Conversion shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether any Notes may be converted (in relation to other securities beneficially owned by the Holder) and which principal amount such Notes are convertible, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations. To ensure compliance with this restriction, the Holder shall be deemed to represent to the Company each time it delivers a Notice of Conversion that such Notice of Conversion has not violated the restrictions set forth in this Section 14.11 and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the 
133








accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
(b)    For purposes of this Section 14.11, in determining the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares as stated in the most recent of the following: (i) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the SEC, as the case may be, (ii) a more recent public announcement by the Company, or (iii) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Company’s transfer agent to such Holder setting forth the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within two Trading Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding Ordinary Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including the Notes, by the Holder since the date as of which such number of outstanding Ordinary Shares was reported.
(c)    The “General Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 9.90% of the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of any Notes held by the Holder. The Holder, upon not less than 61 days’ prior written notice to the Company, may elect a beneficial ownership limit as to such Holder (but not as to any other Holder) (such limit, a “Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation” and together with the General Beneficial Ownership Limitation, the “Beneficial Ownership Limitations”) that is less than or equal to the General Beneficial Ownership Limitation then applicable to the Holders. Any Holder Beneficial Ownership Limitation will be effective as of (i) the Issue Date for the Notes, for any notice delivered prior to the issuance of such Notes, and (ii) the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company in all other cases.
(d)    Any Notes surrendered for conversion for which Ordinary Shares are not delivered due to the Beneficial Ownership Limitations shall not be extinguished and, such Holder may either:
(i)    request return of the Notes surrendered by such Holder for conversion, after which the Company shall deliver such Notes to such Holder within two Trading Days after receipt of such request; or
(ii)    certify to the Company that the person (or persons) receiving Ordinary Shares upon conversion is not, and would not, as a result of such conversion, become the beneficial owner of Ordinary Shares outstanding at such time in excess of the applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations, after which the Company shall deliver any such Ordinary Shares withheld on account of such applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations by the later of (x) the date such shares were otherwise due to such person (or persons) and (y) two Trading Days after receipt of such certification; provided, however, until such time as the affected Holder gives such notice, no person shall be deemed to be the shareholder of record with respect to the Ordinary Shares otherwise deliverable upon conversion in excess of any applicable Beneficial Ownership Limitations.  Upon delivery of such notice, the provisions under Section 14.02 shall apply to the Ordinary Shares to be delivered pursuant to such notice.
Section 14.12    Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:
(a)    action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section 14.13;
(b)    Merger Event; or
134








(c)    voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;
then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of this Indenture), the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) and to each Holder, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Ordinary Shares of record are to be determined for the purposes of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the date on which such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.
Section 14.13    Shareholder Rights Plans. If the Company has a shareholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each Ordinary Share issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of Notes, the rights have separated from the Ordinary Shares in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder rights plan, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Shares Distributed Property as provided in Section 14.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.
Section 14.14    Supplemental Provisions Relating to Conversions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, if at any time prior to the Outside Date a Holder converts Notes when the Company shall be precluded in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.02(i) from delivering Ordinary Shares in respect of the Interest Make-Whole Payment due upon such conversion, then the Holder shall elect to either (x) receive Ordinary Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.02(i); provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 14.02(i), the value of each Ordinary Share to be so delivered shall be equal to the minimum price permitted by the New York Stock Exchange (which minimum price, as of the date hereof, is equal to $0.6262 per Ordinary Share) or (y) exercise its right to purchase additional Notes to the extent permitted and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(g) of the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement using the cash proceeds of the Interest Make-Whole Payment due upon such conversion.  Upon such election and the receipt of the Ordinary Shares or additional Notes in accordance with the provisions of clauses (x) or (y) of the preceding sentence, the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligation in full to pay the Interest Make-Whole Payment due upon such conversion to such converting Holder.
The Company shall use its best efforts to obtain Shareholder Consent on a date not later than the Outside Date. (It being understood that such best efforts will not require the payment of a fee to any shareholder of the Company.).  Upon obtaining Shareholder Consent, the penultimate sentence of the first paragraph of Section 14.02(i) of this Indenture shall be deemed stricken from this Indenture and the provisions of such sentence shall no longer be deemed to have any further force or effect.

(a)    At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, for cash, in whole, or from time to time in part, at the Redemption Price, if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares exceeds 250% of the Conversion Price then in effect, and if the daily trading volume for the Ordinary Shares on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other national securities exchange on which the Ordinary Shares are then listed) exceeds 1,000,000 shares, in each case, for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive), including at least one of the five Trading Days immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides a Notice of Redemption in accordance with Section 16.02 in respect of its right to redeem the Notes under this Section 16.01(a), during any 30 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides such Notice of Redemption in accordance with Section 16.02.

(c)    At any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, at its option, for cash, in whole, and not in part, in an amount equal to the sum of the Redemption Price plus the Redemption Premium (subject to the rights of Holders of record on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date if the Notes have not been redeemed prior to such Interest Record Date). For any Optional Redemption pursuant to this Section 16.01(c), the Issuer will (a) calculate the Treasury Rate no later than the second (2nd) Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date and (b) prior to such Redemption Date, deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Redemption Premium and the Treasury Rate and showing the calculation of each in reasonable detail. 
(d)    Holders may surrender Notes subject to Optional Redemption for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date (unless the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of Notes subject to Optional Redemption may convert such Notes until the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for).

(iv)    the place or places where such Notes subject to Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption, as the case may be, are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
141








(v)    that Holders may surrender Notes subject to such Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption, as the case may be, for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date (unless the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of Notes subject to such Optional Redemption may convert such Notes until the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for);
(vi)    the procedures a converting Holder must follow to convert its Notes subject to Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption, as the case may be;

(viii)    the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes subject to Optional Redemption or Tax Redemption, as the case may be.
A Notice of Redemption shall be irrevocable.

The Notice of Redemption, if given in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such Notice of Redemption or any defect in the Notice of Redemption to the Holder of any Note designated for redemption as a whole shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note.
Section 16.03    Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. 
(a)    If any Notice of Redemption has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 16.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Notice of Redemption at the Redemption Price.  On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Notice of Redemption, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the Redemption Price. If a Note is redeemed on or after an Interest Record Date but on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Interest Record Date.
(b)    Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04 an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Redemption Date), sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. Subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made on the Redemption Date for such Notes. The Paying Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.
Section 16.04    Restrictions on Redemption. 
142








(a)    The Company may not provide a Notice of Redemption in respect of an Optional Redemption or a Tax Redemption to Holders, if, at the time such Notice of Redemption is to be provided, a resale registration statement is not effective (or is not reasonably expected to remain effective at all times from and after the date such Notice of Redemption is provided until the date that is 90 days following the Redemption Date) and a resale prospectus has not been made available to Holders (or is not reasonably expected to remain available to Holders at all times from and after the date such Notice of Redemption is provided until the date that is 90 days following the Redemption Date) in each case relating to resales of the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes as contemplated by the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement, regardless of whether the failure of such registration statement to be effective or the non-availability of such resale prospectus constitutes a Registration Default, as such term is defined in the Repurchase and Subscription Agreement. 
(b)    The Company may not redeem any Notes on any date pursuant to its Optional Redemption right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01 or its Tax Redemption right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 18.17(b)(i) if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded on or prior to the Redemption Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Redemption Price with respect to such Notes).
(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 16.04(a) or Section 16.04(b), nothing in this Section 16.04 shall impair Holders’ right to recover a premium equal to the Redemption Premium as provided in the last two sentences of the first paragraph of Section 6.02 (calculated as set forth therein) if the Notes are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to the Maturity Date as a result of or following an Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j)).
Section 16.05    Redemption Make-Whole Conversion Right.  The Conversion Rate for any Notes converted by Holders in accordance with the Article 14 hereof in connection with a Tax Redemption or a Make-Whole Redemption shall be increased by a number of Additional Shares as though such Notes had been converted in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.03 hereof. For purposes of Section 14.03 and this Section 16.05:
(a)    Notes will be deemed to be converted “in connection with a Tax Redemption” or “in connection with a Make-Whole Redemption” if the related Conversion Date occurs on or after the tenth (10th) Business Day prior to the related Redemption Date and prior to the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the Redemption Date,
(b)    the Effective Date will be deemed to be the date on which the Company provides the related Redemption Notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 16.02 hereof; and

be responsible or liable for the existence, genuineness, value, protection or condition of any of the Collateral or as to the security afforded or intended to be afforded thereby, hereby or by any of the Note Security Documents, or for the legality, sufficiency, effectiveness, validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens or any other security interests in any of the Collateral created or intended to be created by any of the Note Security Documents, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of any of the Note Security Documents or any agreement or assignment contained in any thereof, for the validity of the title of the Company to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral or any defect or deficiency as to any such matters.
(a)    If the Company or any Guarantor acquires any assets or property that are required to become Collateral pursuant to this Indenture or the Note Security Documents or any Subsidiary is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.13, the Company or such Guarantor shall promptly (and in any event within 45 days after such acquisition or requirement to become a Guarantor commences) execute the applicable Note Security Documents or, if applicable, a joinder thereto and take all steps necessary to validly grant, preserve, protect and perfect such Lien and the security interests created or intended to be created by such Note Security Documents in the Collateral (to the extent required by applicable law, this Indenture and the applicable Note Security Documents), and the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, are authorized and directed to execute any documentation consistent therewith.
(b)    The Company and each Guarantor shall execute such further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all commercially reasonable further actions (including providing such further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments to the Requisite Holders Counsel or the Requisite Holders for review, filing and recording thereof), that may be required under any applicable law, to ensure that the Liens of the Note Security Documents on the Collateral remain perfected (to the extent required by this Indenture and the applicable Note Security Documents) with the priority required by this Indenture or the applicable Note Security Documents, all at the expense of the Company and Guarantors and provide to the Collateral Agent and the Trustee from time to time upon reasonable request of the Requisite Holders Counsel or the Requisite Holders or as otherwise required in the Note Security Documents evidence as to the perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Note Security Documents. It being understood and agreed that the Company and Guarantors shall not be required to provide, and the Collateral Agent shall not request, any additional Liens in respect of any Excluded Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein or in any other Note Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the determination, preparation, filing, form, content or continuation of any UCC financing statements, mortgages, assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements or similar instruments. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company and the Guarantors shall be responsible for ensuring all filings (including filings of continuation statements and amendments to UCC financing statements that may be necessary to continue the effectiveness of such UCC financing statements) necessary to maintain (at the sole cost and expense of the Company and the Guarantors, as applicable) the security interest created by the Note Security Documents in the Collateral as a first priority perfected security interest to the extent perfection is required herein or by the Note Security Documents, and promptly provide (or procure the provision of) evidence thereof to the Collateral Agent.
Section 17.02    Collateral Agent. (a) The Collateral Agent shall have all the rights (including indemnification rights), powers, benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities and immunities provided in the Note Security Documents and, additionally, shall have all the rights (including indemnification rights), benefits, privileges, protections, indemnities and immunities in its dealings under the Note Security Documents as are provided to the Trustee under this 
144








Indenture, including, but not limited to, Article 7, and under applicable law, all of which are incorporated herein mutatis mutandis.
(a)    Except as required or permitted by the Note Security Documents, the Holders, by accepting a Note, acknowledge that the Collateral Agent will not be obligated:
(i)    to act upon directions purported to be delivered to it by any Person, except in accordance with the Note Security Documents;
(ii)    to foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any Lien granted pursuant to the Note Security Documents; or
(iii)    to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any or all of the Note Security Documents (including any Lien granted thereunder) or Collateral.
(b)    Each Holder, by accepting a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Note Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral) and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and this Indenture and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Note Security Documents and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, the Collateral Agent will have no discretion under this Indenture or the Note Security Documents and will not be required to make or give any determination, consent, approval, request or direction without the written direction of the Majority Holders, or the Trustee, as applicable. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee may (but will not be obligated to) direct the Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture.
(c)    None of the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates will (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction) or under or in connection with any Note Security Document or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Trustee or any Holder for any recital, statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Issuer or any Guarantor or Affiliate of any Guarantor, or any Officer thereof, contained in this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Collateral Agent under or in connection with, this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, or for any failure of any Guarantor or any other party to this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.
(d)    Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, other than in connection with a release of Collateral permitted under Section 17.04, in each case that the Collateral Agent may or is required hereunder to take any action (an “Action”), including without limitation to make any determination, to give consents, to exercise rights, powers or remedies, to release or sell Collateral or otherwise to act hereunder, the Collateral Agent may seek direction from the Majority Holders. The Collateral Agent will not be liable with respect to any Action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the direction from the Majority Holders. If the 
145








Collateral Agent requests direction from the Majority Holders, with respect to any Action, the Collateral Agent will be entitled to refrain from such Action until the Collateral Agent will have received direction from the Majority Holders, and the Collateral Agent will not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.
(e)    Neither the Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder nor the Collateral Agent will be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any of the Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder, for the validity or sufficiency of the Collateral or any agreement or assignment contained therein, for the validity of the title of any grantor to the Collateral, for insuring the Collateral or for the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. The Trustee in any of its capacities hereunder and Collateral Agent hereby disclaim any representation or warranty to the present and future Holders of Notes concerning the perfection of the liens granted hereunder or in the value of any of the Collateral.
(f)    In the event that the Collateral Agent is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any fiduciary or trust obligation for the benefit of another, which in the Collateral Agent’s sole discretion may cause the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to be considered an “owner or operator” under any environmental laws or otherwise cause the Collateral Agent to incur, or be exposed to, any environmental liability or any liability under any other federal, state, provincial or local law or expose the Collateral Agent to reputational harm, the Collateral Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, either to resign as Collateral Agent or to arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset, at the expense of the Company, to a court appointed receiver, or to take any other actions that would prevent the Collateral Agent from attracting liability or exposing it to reputational harm. The parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree that the Collateral Agent shall not assume, be responsible for or otherwise be obligated for any liabilities, claims, causes of action, suits, losses, allegations, requests, demands, penalties, fines, settlements, damages (including foreseeable and unforeseeable), judgments, expenses and costs (including but not limited to, any remediation, corrective action, response, removal or remedial action, or investigation, operations and maintenance or monitoring costs, for personal injury or property damages, real or personal) of any kind whatsoever, pursuant to any environmental law as a result of this Indenture, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, the Note Security Documents or any actions taken pursuant hereto or thereto and will not be liable to any Person for any environmental claims or any environmental liabilities or contribution actions under any federal, state, provincial or local law, rule or regulation, including any Environmental Laws, by reason of the Collateral Agent’s actions, omissions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder or relating to any kind of discharge, release, leak, spill, migration, emission or deposit, or threatened discharge, release, leak, spill, migration, emission or deposit, of any hazardous materials into the environment. Further, the parties hereto and the Holders hereby agree and acknowledge that in the exercise of its rights under this Indenture, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and the Note Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may hold or obtain indicia of ownership primarily to protect the security interest of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral and that any such actions taken by the Collateral Agent shall not be construed as or otherwise constitute any participation in the management of such Collateral.
(g)    The Collateral Agent is entitled to compensation, reimbursement and indemnity as set forth in Section 7.06.
(h)    The Collateral Agent will not be deemed to have knowledge of any fact or matter (including, without limitation, a Default or Event of Default) unless written notice of such fact or matter is provided to a Responsible Officer of the Collateral Agent, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Collateral Agent shall 
146








take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Trustee in accordance with Article 6 hereof or the Majority Holders (subject to this Section 17.02).
(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, or have any duty or obligation with respect to, the recording, filing, registering, perfection, protection or maintenance of the security interests or Liens intended to be created by this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement (including without limitation the obligation to give, execute, deliver, file, record, authorize or obtain any UCC financing or continuation statements or similar documents or instruments as shall be necessary to (i) create, preserve, perfect or validate the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture and the Note Security Documents or (ii) enable the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights under this Indenture and the Note Security Documents with respect to such pledge and security interest), nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible for, and the Collateral Agent makes no representation regarding, the validity, effectiveness or priority of any of the Note Security Documents or the security interests or Liens intended to be created thereby. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility or liability (i) in connection with the acts or omissions of the Issuer in respect of the foregoing or (ii) for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any security interest created in the Collateral or the perfection and priority of such security interest.
(j)    Before the Collateral Agent acts or refrains from acting in each case at the request or direction of the Issuer or the Guarantors, it may require an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, which shall conform to the provisions of Section 18.05 hereof.  The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on such certificate or opinion.
(k)    After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee may direct the Collateral Agent in connection with any action required or permitted by this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement.
(l)    The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Trustee or any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company or any Guarantor or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine whether all of the Company or any Guarantor’s property constituting collateral intended to be subject to the Lien and security interest of the Note Security Documents has been properly and completely listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any Note Security Document or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement other than pursuant to the instructions of the Trustee or the Majority Holders or as otherwise provided in the Note Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of the foregoing.
(m)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement or the Note Security Documents, in the event the Collateral Agent is entitled or required to commence an action to foreclose or otherwise exercise its remedies to acquire control or possession of the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to commence any such action or exercise any remedy or to inspect or conduct any 
147








studies of any property under the mortgages or take any such other action if the Collateral Agent has determined that the Collateral Agent may incur personal liability as a result of the presence at, or release on or from, the Collateral or such property, of any hazardous substances unless the Collateral Agent has received security or indemnity from the Holders in an amount and in a form all satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion, protecting the Collateral Agent from all such liability.  The Collateral Agent shall at any time be entitled to cease taking any action described above if it no longer reasonably deems any indemnity, security or undertaking from the Issuer or the Holders to be sufficient.
(n)    Upon the receipt by the Collateral Agent of a written request of the Issuer signed by an Officer (a “Security Document Order”), the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to execute and enter into, and shall execute and enter into, without the further consent of any Holder or the Trustee, any Note Security Document to be executed after the Issue Date.  Such Security Document Order shall (i) state that it is being delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to, and is a Security Document Order referred to in, this Section 17.02(o), and (ii) instruct the Collateral Agent to execute and enter into such Note Security Document and the Collateral Agent shall (without any obligation to review or negotiate the terms of such Note Security Document) sign any such Note Security Document.  Any such execution of a Note Security Document shall be at the direction and expense of the Issuer, upon delivery to the Collateral Agent of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of the Note Security Document have been satisfied.  The Holders, by their acceptance of the Notes, hereby authorize and direct the Collateral Agent to execute such Note Security Documents without risk of liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Collateral Agent be required to execute and enter into any such Note Security Document if the Collateral Agent determines in its reasonable discretion that such Note Collateral Document is reasonably likely to adversely affect any of the Collateral Agent’s rights, benefits, immunities, privileges or indemnities hereunder, require the Collateral Agent to expend or risk its own funds or cause the Collateral Agent to incur any loss, liability or expense.
Section 17.03    Authorization of Actions to be Taken. (a) Each Holder of Notes, by its acceptance thereof, (i) appoints the Collateral Agent as its agent under this Indenture, the Note Security Documents and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) consents and agrees to the terms of each Note Security Document and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, as originally in effect and as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time in accordance with its terms or the terms of this Indenture, (iii) authorizes and directs the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Note Security Documents and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement to which it is a party, and (iv) authorizes and empowers the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to bind the Holders of Notes as set forth in the Note Security Documents and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement to which it is a party and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights and powers. Whether or not expressly provided in any Note Security Document or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, in entering and acting thereunder, the Collateral Agent (and the Trustee, if applicable) shall be entitled to all of the rights, privileges, immunities and indemnities set forth in this Indenture. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture, the Note Security Documents and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, the duties of the Collateral Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other documents to which the Collateral Agent is a party, nor shall the Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any trust or other fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or any Guarantor, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, the Note Security Documents or any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Indenture with reference to the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead, such term 
148








is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(a)    The Trustee is authorized and empowered to receive for the benefit of the Holders of Notes any funds collected or distributed to the Collateral Agent under the Note Security Documents and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and, subject to the terms of the Note Security Documents and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement, to make further distributions of such funds to the Holders of Notes according to the provisions of this Indenture, the Note Security Documents and each Permitted Intercreditor Agreement.
(b)    Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and the Note Security Documents, the Trustee may (but shall not be obligated to), in its sole discretion and without the consent of the Holders, direct, on behalf of the Holders, the Collateral Agent to take all actions it deems necessary or appropriate in order to:
(i)    foreclose upon or otherwise enforce any or all of the Liens granted pursuant to the Note Security Documents;
(ii)    enforce any of the terms of the Note Security Documents to which the Collateral Agent or the Trustee is a party; or
(iii)    collect and receive payment of any and all Note Obligations hereunder.
At the Company’s sole cost and expense, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered and directed by each Holder of Notes (by its acceptance thereof) to institute and maintain, or direct the Collateral Agent to institute and maintain, such suits and proceedings as it may deem reasonably expedient, at the Company’s sole cost and expense, to preserve or protect its interests and the interests of the Holders in the Collateral, including power to institute and maintain suits or proceedings to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislative or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of, or compliance with, such enactment, rule or order would impair the security interests hereunder or be prejudicial to the interests of Holders or the Trustee.
Section 17.04    Release of Collateral. Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, (a) the Collateral Agent’s Liens upon the Collateral will no longer secure the Notes and Guarantees outstanding under this Indenture or any other Obligations under this Indenture (including the Note Obligations), and the right of the Holders of the Notes and such Obligations (including the Note Obligations) to the benefits and proceeds of the Collateral Agent’s Liens on the Collateral will automatically terminate and be discharged:
(i)    in whole, as to all property subject to such Liens which has been taken by eminent domain, condemnation or other similar circumstances;
(ii)    in whole, as to all property subject to such Liens, upon payment or satisfaction in full in cash of the principal of, accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, and such other amounts due on the Notes and the payment in full in cash of all other Note Obligations; or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or Covenant Defeasance, in each case, as set forth in Article 3 hereof;
(iii)    in part, as to any property that (A) is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Company or one of the Guarantors in a transaction permitted under Section 4.11 and not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture, at the time of such Disposition, to the extent of the interest Disposed of; provided, in each case, that any products or proceeds received by the Company or a Guarantor in respect of any such 
149








Collateral shall continue to constitute Collateral to the extent required by this Indenture and the Note Security Documents, or (B) is owned or at any time acquired by a Guarantor that has been released from its Guarantee (and any guarantee of other Note Obligations), concurrently with the release of such Guarantee (and any guarantee of other Note Obligations);
(iv)    as to property that constitutes all or substantially all of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations, with the consent of the Holders as required under Section 10.02;
(v)    as to property that constitutes less than all or less than substantially all of the Collateral securing the Note Obligations, with the consent of the Requisite Holders;
(vi)    as to Collateral which becomes Excluded Property; and
(vii)    as ordered pursuant to applicable law under a final and nonappealable order or judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel certifying that all conditions precedent and covenants under this Indenture, including the specific conditions precedent set forth in any of sub-paragraphs (i) through (vii) above, as applicable, and the Note Documents, if any, relating to such release have been complied with, and any necessary or proper instruments of termination, satisfaction or release prepared by the Company, the Trustee shall, or shall cause the Collateral Agent to, execute, deliver or acknowledge (at the Company’s expense), without recourse, representation or warranty of any kind (express or implied), such instruments or releases to evidence the release of any Collateral permitted to be released pursuant to this Indenture or the Note Documents. Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any such release undertaken in good faith in reliance upon any such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel; and notwithstanding any term hereof or in any Note Document to the contrary, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to release any such Lien and security interest, or execute and deliver any such instrument of release, satisfaction or termination, unless and until it receives such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel; and 
(b)    the release of any Collateral from the terms of the Note Documents, or the release, in whole or in part, of the Liens created by the Note Security Documents, will not be deemed to impair the Guarantees and security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof and of the Note Security Documents if and to the extent that the Collateral is released pursuant to this Indenture and the Note Documents, and any Person that is required to deliver an Officer’s Certificate shall be entitled to rely upon the foregoing as a basis for delivery of such certificate.
Section 17.05    Use of Collateral. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have commenced enforcement of remedies under the Note Security Documents, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Note Security Documents or this Indenture, the Company and the Guarantors will have the right to remain in possession and retain exclusive control of the Collateral to alter or repair the Collateral, to freely operate the Collateral and to collect, invest and dispose of any income thereon.
(a)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the Guarantors may, among other things, without any release or consent by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, use and dispose of the Collateral in any lawful manner to the extent not prohibited by provisions of this Indenture.
150








(b)    The release of any Collateral from the terms of this Indenture will not be deemed to impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of provisions hereof if and to the extent the Collateral is released pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 17.06    Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Collateral shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in this Article 17 upon the Company or a Guarantor with respect to the release or Disposition of such property may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar instrument of the Company or a Guarantor or of any officer or officers thereof required by the provisions of this Article 17; and if the Trustee or the Collateral Agent shall be in the possession of the Collateral under any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be.
Section 17.07    Voting. In connection with any matter under the Note Security Documents requiring a vote of holders of Note Obligations, the holders of such Note Obligations shall be treated as a single class and the Holders shall cast their votes in accordance with this Indenture. The amount of the Notes to be voted by the Holders will equal the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes. Following and in accordance with the outcome of the applicable vote under this Indenture, the Trustee shall vote the total amount of the Notes as a block in respect of any vote under the Note Security Documents.
Section 17.08    Appointment and Authorization of Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB as Collateral Agent. 
(a)    Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”) is hereby designated and appointed as (x) the Collateral Agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) of the Holders under the Note Security Documents, (y) as the Super Senior Representative of the Holders under the Intercreditor Agreement and (z) as a representative of the Holders under any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement.  In each of the foregoing capacities, WSFS is authorized by the Holders to execute and enter into each of the Note Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and all other instruments relating to the Note Security Documents and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and (i) to take action and exercise such powers and remedies as are expressly required or permitted hereunder and under the Note Security Documents and any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement and all instruments relating hereto and thereto and (ii) to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are, in each case, expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental hereto and thereto (iii) any reference in this Indenture to the Collateral Agent acting as the Collateral Agent for the Holders, on behalf of the Holders, or for the benefit of the Holders shall be deemed to include the Collateral Agent acting in its capacity as trustee in respect of any Collateral governed by the laws of England & Wales in favor of the Holders.
(b)    The Collateral Agent declares that it shall hold all Liens on Collateral governed by English law (including under the UK Security Documents on trust on terms contained in this Indenture and, in the UK Security Documents). The rights, powers, authorities and discretions given to the Collateral Agent under or in connection with the Note Documents shall be supplemental to the Trustee Act 1925 (United Kingdom) and the Trustee Act 2000 (United Kingdom) and in addition to any which may be vested in the Collateral Agent by law or regulation or otherwise.
(c)    Section 1 of the Trustee Act 2000 (United Kingdom) shall not apply to the duties of the Collateral Agent in relation to the trusts constituted by this Indenture or in the UK Security Documents. Where there are any inconsistencies between the Trustee Act 1925 (United Kingdom) or the Trustee Act 2000 (United Kingdom) and the provisions of this Indenture, the 
151








provisions of this Indenture shall, to the extent permitted by law and regulation, prevail and, in the case of any inconsistency with the Trustee Act 2000 (United Kingdom), the provisions of this Indenture shall constitute a restriction or exclusion for the purposes of that Act.
(d)    Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Indenture, the Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement or the Note Security Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not have (i) any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein or therein or (ii) any fiduciary relationship with any Holder, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Indenture, any Permitted Intercreditor Agreement or any Note Security Document or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.
(e)    Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of the collateral in its possession, the Collateral Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and the Collateral Agent will not be liable or responsible for any loss or diminution in the value of any of the Collateral by reason of the act or omission of any carrier, forwarding agency or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.  The Collateral Agent will have no duty to monitor the Company’s compliance with any requirements herein regarding the delivery of any additional Collateral or review the adequacy or sufficiency any such additional Collateral that is required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any Note Security Documents.
Section 17.09    Release Upon Termination of the Company’s Obligations.

Neither the Trustee nor the Collateral Agent shall be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s or the Collateral Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The party providing electronic instructions agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee or the Collateral Agent acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties.
The Trustee and the Collateral Agent, by notice to the Company, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or communications.
Any notice or communication delivered or to be delivered to a Holder of Physical Notes shall be mailed to it by first class mail, postage prepaid, or by electronic mail to such email address provided by such Holder to the Company and the Trustee, or sent by overnight courier at its address as it appears on the Note Register and shall be sufficiently given to it if so mailed within the time prescribed.
Failure to mail or deliver a notice or communication to a Holder or any defect in it shall not affect its sufficiency with respect to other Holders. If a notice or communication is mailed or delivered, as the case may be, in the manner provided above, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee receives it.

THIS INDENTURE AND EACH NOTE, AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS INDENTURE AND EACH NOTE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF).
The Company and each Guarantor irrevocably consents and agrees, for the benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Notes, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, that any legal action, suit or proceeding against it with respect to obligations, liabilities or any other matter arising out of or in connection with this Indenture or the Notes may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or the courts of the United States located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New York and, until amounts due and to become due in respect of the Notes have been paid, hereby irrevocably consents and submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of

Nothing in this Indenture will affect the right of any Person to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
The Company and each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Indenture brought in the courts of the State of New York or the courts of the United States located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New York and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
Section 18.05    Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent; Certificates and Opinions of Counsel to Trustee. Upon any application or demand by the Company to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent to take any action under any of the provisions of this Indenture or the other Note Documents, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Indenture.
Each Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel provided for, by or on behalf of the Company in this Indenture and delivered to the Trustee or the Collateral Agent with respect to compliance with this Indenture (other than the Officer’s Certificates provided for in Section 4.14) shall include (a) a statement that the person signing such certificate is familiar with the requested action and this Indenture; (b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statement contained in such certificate is based; (c) a statement that, in the judgment of such person, he or she has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him or her to express an informed judgment as to whether or not such action is permitted by this Indenture; and (d) a statement as to whether or not, in the judgment of such person, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture related to the proposed action have been complied with.
Section 18.06    Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, Springing Repurchase Date or the Maturity Date or earlier Redemption Date is not a Business Day, then any action to be taken on such date need not be taken on such date, but may be taken on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if taken on such date, and no interest shall accrue in respect of the delay.
Section 18.07    Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the Holders, the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent, any authenticating agent, any Note Registrar and their successors hereunder, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.
Section 18.08    Table of Contents, Headings, Etc. The table of contents and the titles and headings of the articles and sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent that shall be authorized to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Notes in connection with the original issuance thereof and transfers and exchanges of Notes hereunder, including under Section 2.04, Section 2.05, Section 2.06, Section 2.07 and 
154








Section 10.04 as fully to all intents and purposes as though the authenticating agent had been expressly authorized by this Indenture and those Sections to authenticate and deliver Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication and delivery of Notes by the authenticating agent shall be deemed to be authentication and delivery of such Notes “by the Trustee” and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent shall be deemed to satisfy any requirement hereunder or in the Notes for the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. Such authenticating agent shall at all times be a Person eligible to serve as trustee hereunder pursuant to Section 7.08.
Any corporation or other entity into which any authenticating agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any authenticating agent shall be a party, or any corporation or other entity succeeding to the corporate trust business of any authenticating agent, shall be the successor of the authenticating agent hereunder, if such successor corporation or other entity is otherwise eligible under this Section 18.09, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or the authenticating agent or such successor corporation or other entity.
Any authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any authenticating agent by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor authenticating agent (which may be the Trustee), shall give written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall deliver notice of such appointment to all Holders.

If an authenticating agent is appointed pursuant to this Section 18.09, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:
    ,
as Authenticating Agent, certifies that this is one of the Notes described 
in the within-named Indenture.

Section 18.10    Execution in Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original signatures for all purposes. This Indenture shall be valid, binding, and enforceable against a party only when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) any electronic signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the 
155








Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law, including relevant provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (collectively, “Signature Law”); (ii) an original manual signature; or (iii) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature.  Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature shall for all purposes have the same validity, legal effect, and admissibility in evidence as an original manual signature. Without limitation to the foregoing, and anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) any Officer’s Certificate, Company Order, Opinion of Counsel, amendment, notice, direction, supplemental indenture or other certificate, opinion of counsel, instrument, agreement or other document delivered pursuant to this Indenture may be executed, attested and transmitted by any of the foregoing electronic means and formats and (b) all references in Section 2.04 or elsewhere in this Indenture to the execution, attestation or authentication of any Note or any certificate of authentication appearing on or attached to any Note by means of a manual or facsimile signature shall be deemed to include signatures that are made or transmitted by any of the foregoing electronic means or formats. Neither the Trustee nor that Collateral Agent shall have any duty to inquire into, investigate, confirm or otherwise verify the validity, authenticity or authorization of any such electronic signature and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such electronic signature without any liability with respect thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, original manual signatures shall be used for execution or indorsement of writings when required under the Uniform Commercial Code or other Signature Law due to the character or intended character of the writings.
Section 18.11    Severability. In the event any provision of this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then (to the extent permitted by law) the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired.
Section 18.12    Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE GUARANTORS, THE TRUSTEE AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
Section 18.13    Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, epidemics and pandemics, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.
Section 18.14    Calculations. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, the Company shall be responsible for making all calculations called for under this Indenture and the Notes. None of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for making any of these calculations, which include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares, the Daily VWAPs, any accrued interest payable on the Notes, the Conversion Rate of the Notes, the Interest Make-Whole Payment, Beneficial Ownership Limitations and none of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent or the Conversion Agent shall have any duty to monitor the Share Price. The Company shall make all these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, the Company’s calculations shall be final and binding on Holders of Notes. The Company shall provide a schedule of its calculations to each of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent (if applicable) and the Conversion Agent, and each of 
156








the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the Conversion Agent is entitled to rely conclusively upon the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent verification. The Trustee will forward the Company’s calculations to any Holder of Notes upon the request of that Holder at the sole cost and expense of the Company.
Section 18.15    USA PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, like all financial institutions and in order to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee or the Collateral Agent. The parties to this Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee and the Collateral Agent with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee and the Collateral Agent to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.
Section 18.16    Tax Compliance. In order to comply with applicable tax laws, rules and regulations (inclusive of directives, guidelines and interpretations promulgated by competent authorities) in effect from time to time (“Applicable Tax Law”), the Company agrees (i) to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Trustee, upon request, such information as it has in its possession about Holders and other applicable parties and/or transactions (including any modification to the terms of such transactions), so that the Trustee can determine whether it has tax-related obligations under Applicable Tax Law and (ii) that the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments or deliveries under this Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Tax Law. The terms of this section shall survive the termination of this Indenture.
Section 18.17    Withholding Taxes; Tax Redemption.
(a)    Taxes.
(i)    For purposes of this Section 18.17(a), the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.
(ii)    Any and all payments or deliveries by or on account of any obligation of any Note Party under any Note Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment or delivery, then the applicable party shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Note Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 18.17(a)) the applicable Recipient or beneficial owner of such Notes, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. References in this Section 18.17(a)(ii) to a deduction or withholding from a payment or delivery shall include a deduction or withholding required to be made upon the issue of Ordinary Shares in satisfaction of amounts in respect of the Notes and/or on a Conversion and the Company or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall be entitled to deduct or withhold Ordinary Shares from any such issue in satisfaction of its deduction or withholding obligations for Taxes; provided if any such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the number of Ordinary Shares deliverable shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional shares deliverable under this Section 18.17(a)) the applicable Recipient or beneficial owner of such Notes, as applicable, receives a number 
157








of shares equal to the number it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(iii)    In addition, the Note Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Holders timely reimburse them for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(iv)    The Note Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Recipient or beneficial owner of Notes, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable or deliverable under this Section 18.17(a)) payable or paid by such Recipient or beneficial owner of Notes or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment or delivery to such Recipient or beneficial owner of Notes and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Holder or beneficial owner of Notes (with a copy to the Trustee), or by the Trustee on its own behalf or on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner of Notes, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(v)    [reserved] 
(vi)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Note Party to a Government Authority pursuant to this Section, the Company or applicable Note Party shall deliver to the Trustee the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee.
(vii)    Any Holder or beneficial owner of Notes that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments or deliveries made under any Note Document (other than in respect of withholding Tax imposed by the United Kingdom) shall deliver to the Company and the Trustee, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Trustee, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Trustee as will permit such payments or deliveries to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Holder, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Trustee, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Trustee as will enable the Company or the Trustee to determine whether or not such Holder is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
(viii)    If any party (referred to in this paragraph as an “indemnified party”) determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes in respect of which it has received additional amounts pursuant to this Section 18.17(a) or as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 18.17(a) (including by the payment or delivery of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 18.17(a)), it shall pay to the party that paid such additional amounts or indemnity payments, as applicable, (referred to in this paragraph as an “indemnifying party”) an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of additional amounts or indemnity payments made under this Section 18.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to 
158








this Subsection 18.17(a)(viii) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subsection 18.17(a)(viii), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Subsection 18.17(a)(viii) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Subsection 18.17(a)(viii) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(ix)    Each party’s obligations under this Subsection 18.17(a) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Trustee or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Holder, the termination or conversion of the Notes and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Note Document. 
(b)    Tax Redemption.
(i)    If at any time as a result of a Change in Tax Law or Change in Listing Status the Company has (or on the next Interest Payment Date or on the Maturity Date would) become obligated to make any Additional Payments in respect of any payment or delivery to a Holder on account of any of the Notes held by that Holder, the Company has the right, at its election upon giving a Notice of Redemption to the affected Holder(s) pursuant to Section 16.02 of this Indenture, to redeem all, but not less than all, of the affected Notes held by such Holder(s) for a cash price equal to the Redemption Price and all additional amounts (if any) required to be paid or delivered to that Holder pursuant to Section 18.17(a)(ii) then due and that will become due on such Redemption Date as a result of the Tax Redemption (as defined below) or otherwise (subject to the right of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date that is prior to the Redemption Date and additional amount required to be paid or delivered to a holder of any Note pursuant to Section 18.17(a)(ii) in respect thereof) (a “Tax Redemption”). The Company may not elect to redeem Notes pursuant to this Subsection 18.17(b) unless the Company has delivered to the Trustee (x) an Officer’s Certificate attesting that the obligation to pay such additional amounts cannot reasonably be avoided by the Company taking reasonable measures available to it (such measures to include, without limitation, to the extent reasonable in the circumstances, using reasonable endeavours to cause the Notes to become listed (within the meaning of section 987, United Kingdom Income Tax Act 2007) and “quoted” (within the meaning of Section 64 of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997) on another “recognised stock exchange” (within the meaning of section 1005, United Kingdom Income Tax Act 2007 and Section 64 of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997)) and (y) an Opinion of Counsel from independent tax counsel to the effect that there has been such a Change in Tax Law or Change in Listing Status. The Trustee will be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, without further inquiry, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the Holders.
(ii)    If the Company calls Notes for a Tax Redemption, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 18.17(b) or in Section 18.17(a), each affected Holder will have the right to elect (a “Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election”) not to have such Holder’s Notes (or any portion thereof in an authorized denomination) redeemed 
159








pursuant to such Tax Redemption, in which case, from and after the Redemption Date for such Tax Redemption (or, if the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price due on such Redemption Date in full, from and after such time as the Company pays such Redemption Price in full), the Company will no longer have any obligation to pay any such additional amounts with respect to such Notes solely as a result of such Change in Tax Law or Change in Listing Status (which shall be binding upon all subsequent transferees of such Notes), and all future payments with respect to such Notes will be subject to the deduction or withholding of such Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction’s taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld as a result of such Change in Tax Law or Change in Listing Status.
(iii)    To make a Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election with respect to any Note (or any portion thereof in an authorized denomination), the Holder of such Note must deliver a notice (a “Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election Notice”) to the Company (with a copy to the Trustee) before the close of business on the second Business Day immediately before the related Redemption Date, which notice must state: (x) if such Note is a Physical Note, the certificate number of such Note; (y) the Original Principal Amount of such Note as to which (together with all PIK Interest thereon, whether pursuant to PIK Payments previously, then or thereafter made) the Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election will apply, which must be an authorized denomination; and (z) that such Holder is making a Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election with respect to such Note (or such portion thereof).
(iv)    Holders may surrender Notes subject to a Tax Redemption for conversion at any time prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date (unless the Company fails to pay the Redemption Price, in which case a Holder of Notes subject to Tax Redemption may convert such Notes until the Trading Day immediately preceding the date on which the Redemption Price has been paid or duly provided for).  For the avoidance of doubt, a Tax Redemption will not affect the Company’s obligation to make Additional Payments, if any, with respect to such conversion up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 
Section 18.18    Conversion of Currency. The Issuer covenants and agrees that the following provisions shall apply to conversion of currency in the case of the Notes and this Indenture:
(a)    (i) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in, or enforcing the judgment of, any court in any country, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due or contingently due in any other currency under the Notes and this Indenture (the “Required Currency”), then the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or the order of enforcement is made, as the case may be (unless a court shall otherwise determine).
(i)    If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given or an order of endorsement is made, as the case may be (or such other date as a court shall determine), and the date of receipt of the amount due, the Issuer shall pay such additional (or, as the case may be, such lesser) amount, if any, as may be necessary so that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt will produce the amount in the Required Currency originally due.
(b)    In the event of the winding-up of the Issuer at any time while any amount of damages owing under the Notes and this Indenture, or any judgment or order rendered in respect thereof, shall remain outstanding, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold the Holders of Notes and the Trustee harmless against any deficiency arising or resulting from any variation in rates of 
160








exchange between (1) the date as of which the equivalent of the amount in the Required Currency (other than under this Subsection (b)) is calculated for the purposes of such winding-up and (2) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in such winding-up. For the purpose of this Subsection (b) the final date for the filing of proofs of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or otherwise in accordance with the relevant provisions of applicable law as being the latest practicable date as at which liabilities of the Issuer may be ascertained for such winding-up prior to payment by the liquidator or otherwise in respect thereto.
(c)    The obligations contained in Subsections (a)(ii) and (b) of this Section 18.18 shall constitute separate and independent obligations of the Issuer from its other obligations under the Notes and this Indenture, shall give rise to separate and independent causes of action against the Issuer, shall apply irrespective of any waiver or extension granted by any Holder or Trustee from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of any proof of claim in the winding-up of the Issuer for a liquidated sum in respect of amounts due hereunder (other than under Subsection (b) above) or under any such judgment or order. Any such deficiency as aforesaid shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Holders or the Trustee, as the case may be, and no proof or evidence of any actual loss shall be required by the Issuer or its liquidator. In the case of Subsection (b) above, the amount of such deficiency shall not be deemed to be reduced by any variation in rates of exchange occurring between the said final date and the date of any liquidating distribution.
(d)    The term “rate(s) of exchange” shall mean the rate of exchange at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Trustee or any Holder that seeks to obtain or enforce any such judgment described in clause (a)(i) above, as applicable, could purchase in The City of New York or Wilmington, Delaware, as applicable, the Required Currency with the Judgment Currency on the relevant date and includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable. 
Section 18.19    Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation.
Each Holder, by accepting a Note, and the Trustee hereby agrees that:
(a)    all Super Senior Obligations will be and are secured equally and ratably by all Super Senior Liens at any time granted by the Issuer or any other Grantor to the Collateral Agent to secure any Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) under this Indenture and the other Note Documents, whether or not upon property otherwise constituting collateral for such Series of Super Senior Debt, and that all such Super Senior Liens will be enforceable by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of all Super Senior Secured Parties equally and ratably; 
(b)    the Holders agree to be bound by the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, including without limitation the provisions relating to the ranking of Super Senior Liens relative to the Junior Liens and the order of application of proceeds from enforcement of Super Senior Liens relative to the Junior Liens; and 
(c)    it consents to and  directs the Collateral Agent to perform its obligations under the Intercreditor Agreement and the other Security Documents; and 
(d)    to the extent any provision of this Indenture conflicts with the Intercreditor Agreement, that the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.
All defined terms used in the forgoing provisions of this Section 18.19 and this paragraph but not otherwise defined herein are as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement.  The foregoing provisions of this Section 18.19 are intended for the enforceable benefit of, and 
161








will be enforceable as a third party beneficiary by, all holders of each existing and future Series of First Lien Debt, each existing and future First Lien Representative, all holders of each existing and future series of Second Lien Debt, each existing and future Second Lien Representative and the Collateral Agent.

	No. [____]	$[●]




ROCKLEY PHOTONICS HOLDINGS LIMITED, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation or other entity under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received hereby promises to pay to [______], or registered assigns, the Then Current Principal Amount of the Original Principal Amount of this Note of $[________], which amount, taken together with the Original Principal Amounts of all other outstanding Notes, shall not, unless permitted by the Indenture, exceed $90,649,307.77, in accordance with the rules and applicable procedures of the Depositary, on May 15, 2026, and interest thereon as set forth below.
This Note shall bear interest at the rate equal to the Applicable Annual Rate per year from the most recent date to which interest had been paid or duly provided for (or, if no interest has theretofore been paid or duly provided for, the Issue Date) to, but excluding, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date until the Maturity Date, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03 of the Indenture relating to the payment of interest partially in cash and partially in the form of PIK Interest. Interest on this Note is payable quarterly in arrears on each January 15, April 15, July 15 and October 15, commencing January 15, 2023, to Holders of record at the close of business on the preceding January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 (whether or not such day is a Business Day), respectively. Interest on this Note is payable in the manner set forth in Section 2.03 of the within-mentioned Indenture. Additional Interest, if any, will be payable as set forth in Section 6.03 of the within-mentioned Indenture, and any reference to interest on, or in respect of, any Note therein shall be deemed to refer solely to Additional Interest (if, in such context, Additional Interest is, was or would be payable pursuant to Section 6.03) or any interest on any Defaulted Amounts payable as set forth in Section 2.03(e) in the within-mentioned Indenture.  It shall be the obligation of the Company to promptly notify the Trustee of any Additional Interest payable on the Notes pursuant to Section 6.03. Such notice shall be given by delivery to the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date that such Additional Interest begins to accrue, on which the Trustee shall conclusively rely. The Trustee shall have no obligation to (i) determine whether Additional Interest is due with respect to the Notes or (ii) to determine the interest rate applicable to the Notes. Unless and until the Trustee receives such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such Additional Interest is payable and the Trustee shall have no duty to verify the Company’s calculation of Additional Interest.  The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
Any Defaulted Amounts shall accrue interest per annum at the then-applicable interest rate borne by this Note plus 3.0%, subject to the enforceability thereof under Applicable Law, from, and including, such relevant payment date to, but excluding, the date on which such Defaulted Amounts shall have been paid by the Company, at its election, in accordance with Section 2.03(e) of the within-mentioned Indenture.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture including Section 2.03(b) thereof relating to PIK Interest, the Company shall pay the principal of, and interest on, any Notes at the office or agency designated by the Company for that purpose. The Company has initially designated the Trustee as its Paying Agent and Note Registrar in respect of the Notes 
[Signature Page to Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited – Indenture]










and its agency in the contiguous United States as a place where Notes may be presented for payment or for registration of transfer.
Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, including, without limitation, provisions giving the Holder of this Note the right to convert this Note into Ordinary Shares (subject to the payment of cash in lieu of any fractional entitlements to Ordinary Shares) on the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.
This Note, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Note, shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof).
In the case of any conflict between this Note and the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall control and govern.
This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed manually or by facsimile by the Trustee or a duly authorized authenticating agent under the Indenture.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]
ROCKLEY PHOTONICS HOLDINGS LIMITED
Convertible Senior Secured Note due 2026
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”), limited to the aggregate Original Principal Amount of $90,649,307.77 all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of ___________, 2022 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors party thereto and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture.
To guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal and interest (including post-filing or post-petition interest) on the Notes and all other amounts payable by the Company under the Indenture, the Notes and the other Note Documents when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture, the Guarantors will unconditionally guarantee (and future guarantors, jointly and severally with the Guarantors, will fully and unconditionally Guarantee) such obligations on a senior secured basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.
The Notes and the Guarantors’ Guarantees of the Notes will be secured by the Collateral on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture and the Note Security Documents. The Collateral Agent will hold the Collateral for the benefit of the Holders, itself and the Trustee pursuant to the Note Security Documents. Each Holder, by accepting this Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Note Security Documents (including the provisions providing for the foreclosure and release of Collateral), as the same may be in effect or may be amended from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Note Security Documents and to perform its obligations and exercise its rights thereunder in accordance therewith.
In case certain Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and any interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments due on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Springing Repurchase Date, the Redemption Date and on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company, the Trustee and the Collateral Agent, in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Requisite Holders, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures or supplements and amendments modifying the terms of the Indenture, the Notes and the other Note Documents as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions, the Requisite Holders, at the time 
[Signature Page to Rockley Photonics Holdings Limited – Indenture]










outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.
Each Holder shall have the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money or Ordinary Shares, as the case may be, herein prescribed.
The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons. At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate Original Principal Amount of Notes, without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange.
No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.  The Notes shall be subject to Optional Redemption in the manner, and subject to the terms, set forth in Article 16 of the Indenture.
Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company is required to offer to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.  In addition, the Company is required to offer to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof on the Springing Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Springing Repurchase Price.
Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof, into Ordinary Shares at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.
