references in this Indenture to TIA provisions shall not apply and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required to comply with the TIA or such referenced TIA provisions, except in relation to Sections 7.10 and 7.11 (it being the intention
of the parties hereto that the sections of the TIA referred to in such Sections shall apply notwithstanding the fact that this Indenture is not qualified under the TIA). 

Section 1.04 Rules of Construction. 

(1) a term has the meaning assigned to it; 

(2) an accounting term not otherwise defined has the meaning assigned to it and shall be construed in accordance with GAAP; 

  
 7 








 (3) “or” is not exclusive;  

(4) “including” means including, without limitation;  

(5) words in the singular include the plural, and words in the plural include the singular; 

(6) all references to $, dollars, cash payments or money refer to United States currency; and 

(7) all references to payments of interest on the Securities shall include Additional Interest, if any, payable in accordance with the terms
of Sections 4.06 and 6.01 hereof. 
 Section 1.05 Acts of Holders. Any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person
or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and
the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section.  

(a) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the execution thereof. Where such
execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer’s individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such signer’s authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such

Conversion Agent in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security. 
 (d) If the Company shall
solicit from the Holders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, the Company may, at its option, by or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders
entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand,


  
 8 








 
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the Close of Business on such record date shall
be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of outstanding Securities have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
Act, and for that purpose the outstanding Securities shall be computed as of such record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become
effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.  
 ARTICLE 2 

THE SECURITIES 

Section 2.01 Form and Dating. The Securities and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be substantially in
the form of Exhibit A. The terms and provisions contained in the Securities shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Indenture, and 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. However, to the extent any provision of any Security conflicts with the express provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The
Securities may have notations, legends or endorsements required by law, stock exchange rule or usage (provided that any such notation, legend or endorsement required by usage is in a form acceptable to the Company). The Company shall provide
any such notations, legends or endorsements to the Trustee in writing. Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Indenture, all Securities shall be identical in all respects.
Notwithstanding any differences among them, all Securities issued under this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class. 

(a) Initial Securities. The Securities shall be issued initially in the form of a Global Security, which shall be deposited with
the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, as custodian for the Depositary (as defined below) and registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) or the nominee thereof (DTC, or any successor thereto,
and any such nominee being hereinafter referred to as the “Depositary”), duly executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amount of the Global Securities
may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee and the Depositary as hereinafter provided.  

(b) Global Securities in General. Each Global Security shall represent such of the outstanding Securities as shall be specified
therein and each shall provide that it shall represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby may from time to
time be reduced or increased, as appropriate, to reflect exchanges, repurchases and conversions. The Company initially appoints the Trustee to act as DTC Custodian with respect to the Global Securities. The Company has entered into a letter of
representations with DTC in the form provided by DTC and the Trustee and each Agent are hereby authorized to act in accordance with such letter and Applicable Procedures.  

  
 9 








 (c) Any adjustment of the aggregate principal amount of a Global Security to reflect the amount
of any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Securities represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee in accordance with instructions given by the Holder thereof as required by Section 2.12 hereof and shall be made on the records
of the Trustee and the Depositary. Payment of the principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium on the Global Security shall be made to the
Holder of such Security on the date of payment, unless a Record Date or other means of determining Holders eligible to receive payment is provided for herein. 

(d) Book-Entry Provisions. This Section 2.01(d) shall apply only to Global Securities deposited with or on behalf of the
Depositary. 
 The Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section 2.01(d), authenticate and deliver
initially one or more Global Securities that (a) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary, (b) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary or pursuant to the Depositary’s instructions and (c) shall bear the
legends substantially to the effect of those required by Section 2.01(e). 
 (e) Legends. Each Global Security
shall bear the Global Securities Legend set forth in Exhibit A. 
 Section 2.02 Execution and Authentication. The
Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any Officer. The signature of the Officer on the Securities may be manual or facsimile. 

If an Officer whose signature is on a Security no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security
shall be valid nevertheless. 
 At any time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed
by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company in the form of an Officers’ Certificate for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and an Opinion of Counsel as to such matters as the
Trustee may reasonably request, and the Trustee, in accordance with such written order of the Company, shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. 

A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security.
The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. Securities shall be dated the date of their authentication. 

The Securities shall originally be issued only in registered form without coupons and only in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and
any integral multiple thereof. 
 The Trustee shall initially authenticate and deliver Securities for original issuance in an
aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000, upon receipt of one or more Company Orders. The Trustee shall authenticate and deliver Securities for original issuance in an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $75,000,000, upon receipt of one
or more Company Orders upon exercise of the option granted to the initial purchasers of the Securities described in the Offering 

  
 10 








 
Memorandum. The aggregate principal amount of the Securities that initially may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (the “Initial Securities”) shall be
limited to $575,000,000 subject to increase as set forth in Section 2.14.  
 The Trustee may appoint authenticating agents. The
Trustee may at any time after the execution of this Indenture appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so, except any
Securities issued pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent shall have the same right to deal with the Company as the
Trustee with respect to such matters for which it has been appointed. 
 Section 2.03 Registrar, Paying Agent and
Conversion Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Registrar”), an office or agency where Securities may be presented for
payment (“Paying Agent”), an office or agency where Securities may be presented for conversion (“Conversion Agent”) and an office or agency where notices to or upon the Company in respect of the Securities and this
Indenture may be served. The Registrar shall keep a register for the recordation of, and shall record, the names and addresses of Holders of the Securities, the Securities held by each Holder and the transfer, exchange and conversion of Securities
(the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Holder hereunder for all purposes of this Indenture.
The Company may have one or more co-registrars, one or more additional paying agents and one or more additional conversion agents. The term Paying Agent includes any additional paying agent, including any named pursuant to Section 4.05. The
term Conversion Agent includes any additional conversion agent, including any named pursuant to Section 4.05.  
 The Company
shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Company
shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar, Paying Agent or Conversion Agent, the Trustee may agree to act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor
pursuant to Section 7.07. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated Wholly Owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent or co-registrar. 

The Company initially appoints the Trustee as the Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent, and the Registrar, in connection with the Securities,
and the office of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, at its Corporate Trust Office to be such office or agency of the Company for the aforesaid purposes. The Company may at any time rescind the designation of the Paying Agent, Conversion Agent
or the Registrar or approve a change in the location through which any of them acts. 
 Section 2.04 Paying Agent to Hold Money and
Securities in Trust. Except as otherwise provided herein, on or prior to each due date of payment in respect of any Security, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum of money (in immediately available funds if deposited 

  
 11 








 
on the due date) or Common Stock or, as permitted by this Indenture, a combination thereof, sufficient to make such payments when so becoming due. The Paying Agent shall (or, if the Paying Agent
is not a party hereto, the Company shall require each Paying Agent to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall) hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money and Common Stock held by the Paying Agent for the making of
payments in respect of the Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. At any time during the continuance of any such default, the Paying Agent (if not the Trustee) shall, upon the written
request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all money and Common Stock so held in trust. If the Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money and Common Stock held by it as Paying Agent and hold it
as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money and Common Stock held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds and Common Stock disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section,
the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
 Section 2.05 Holder Lists. The
Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee, in writing at least
five Business Days before each Interest Payment Date, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders. 

Section 2.06 [Reserved.] 

Section 2.07 Replacement Securities. If a mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims
that such Security has been lost, destroyed or stolen and the Holder provides evidence of the loss, theft or destruction satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security
if the requirements of Section 8–405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are met and the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond
sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Company and the Trustee may
charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Securities under this Section 2.07, the
Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.07 in exchange for any mutilated Security, or in lieu of any destroyed, lost or
stolen Security, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and any other obligor upon the Securities, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone,
and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 

  
 12 








 Section 2.08 Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are
all Securities authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section 2.08 as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or
an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security; provided, however, that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Securities have given or concurred in any request, demand, authorization, direction,
notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder, Securities owned by the Company or any obligor upon the Securities or any Affiliate of the Company or such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in
determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be so owned shall
be so disregarded. Subject to the foregoing, only Securities outstanding at the time of such determination shall be considered in any such determination (including, without limitation, determinations pursuant to Articles 6 and 9).  

If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.07, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof
satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. 
 If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this
Indenture, on a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or on the Maturity Date by 10 a.m. New York City time, money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then immediately after such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Maturity Date, as
the case may be, such Securities shall cease to be outstanding and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on such Securities shall cease to accrue and such Securities shall cease to be convertible. 

If a Security is converted in accordance with Article 10, then from and after the time of conversion on the Conversion Date, such Security
shall cease to be outstanding and interest (including Additional Interest), if any, shall cease to accrue on such Security. 

Section 2.09 Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee
shall authenticate temporary Securities. Temporary Securities shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the
Company shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities and deliver them in exchange for temporary Securities. 

Section 2.10 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the
Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or
cancellation and shall dispose of such cancelled Securities in its customary manner. The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or that any Holder has converted pursuant to
Article 10. 
 Section 2.11 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee 

  
 13 








 
may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered in the Register as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal, interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium thereon, for the purpose of conversion and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor
any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Section 2.12 Transfer and Exchange. 

(a) Provisions Applicable to All Transfers and Exchanges. 

(i) Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 2.12, Certificated Securities and beneficial interests in Global
Securities may be transferred or exchanged from time to time as desired, and each such transfer or exchange will be noted by the Registrar in the Register. 

(ii) All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange in accordance with this Indenture will be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(iii) No service charge will be imposed on any Holder of a Certificated Security or any owner of a beneficial interest in a
Global Security for any exchange or registration of transfer, but each of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar may require such Holder or owner of a beneficial interest to pay a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessment or other
governmental charge imposed in connection with such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 (iv) Unless the Company
specifies otherwise, none of the Company, the Trustee, the Registrar or any co-Registrar will be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Security (i) that has been surrendered for conversion or (ii) as to which a Fundamental
Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn, except to the extent any portion of such Security is not subject to the foregoing. 

(v) Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent or any other agent appointed pursuant to this
Indenture will have any obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Security
(including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or Beneficial Owners of interests in any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to
do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 

(vi) Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary (collectively, the “Agent Members”) nor
any other Persons on whose behalf any Agent Member may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security 

  
 14 








 
registered in the name of the Depositary or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Security, and the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Company, the
Trustee, the Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent and any of their respective agents as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent or
any other agent appointed pursuant to this Indenture shall have any liability, responsibility or obligation to any Agent Members or any other Person on whose behalf Agent Members may act with respect to (i) any ownership interests in the Global
Security, (ii) the accuracy of the records of the Depositary or its nominee, (iii) any notice required hereunder, (iv) any payments under or with respect to the Global Security or (v) actions taken or not taken by any Agent
Members. 
 (vii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent,
Registrar, Conversion Agent or any of their respective agents from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depositary, its
Agent Members and any other Person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security. The registered Holder of a Global Security may grant
proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities. 

(b) In General; Transfer and Exchange of Beneficial Interests in Global Securities. So long as the Securities are eligible for
book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless otherwise required by law or by Section 2.12(c): 
 (i) all
Securities will be represented by one or more Global Securities; 
 (ii) every transfer and exchange of a beneficial interest
in a Global Security will be effected through the Depositary in accordance with the Applicable Procedures and the provisions of this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 2.15); and 

(iii) each Global Security may be transferred only as a whole and only (A) by the Depositary to a nominee of the
Depositary, (B) by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or to another nominee of the Depositary or (C) by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary. 

(c) Transfer and Exchange of Global Securities for Certificated Securities. 

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, each Global Security will be exchanged for Certificated Securities
if the Depositary delivers notice to the Company that: 
 (A) the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue to act as
Depositary; or 
 (B) the Depositary is no longer registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act or is otherwise no
longer permitted under applicable law to continue as Depositary for such Global Security; 

  
 15 








 and, in each case, the Company promptly delivers a copy of such notice to the Trustee and the
Company fails to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after receiving notice from the Depositary. 
 In each such
case, the Company will, in accordance with Section 2.02, promptly execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee will, in accordance with Section 2.02, promptly authenticate and deliver, for each beneficial interest in each
Global Security so exchanged, an aggregate principal amount of Certificated Securities equal to the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest, registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary specifies,
and bearing any legends that such Certificated Securities are required to bear under Section 2.15. 
 (ii) In addition,
if an Event of Default has occurred with regard to the Securities represented by the relevant Global Security and such Event of Default has not been cured or waived, any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Security may deliver a written
request through the Depositary to exchange such beneficial interest for Certificated Securities. 
 In such case,
(A) the Registrar will deliver notice of such request to the Company and the Trustee, which notice will identify the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest and the CUSIP of the relevant Global Security; (B) the Company
will, in accordance with Section 2.02, promptly execute, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, the Trustee, in accordance with Section 2.02, will promptly authenticate and deliver, to such owner, for the beneficial interest so exchanged by
such owner, Certificated Securities registered in such owner’s name having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such beneficial interest as the Depositary specifies, and bearing any legends that such
Certificated Securities are required to bear under Section 2.15; and (C) the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, will cause the principal amount of such Global Security to be decreased by the aggregate principal amount
of the beneficial interest so exchanged. If all of the beneficial interests in a Global Security are so exchanged, such Global Security will be deemed surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trustee will cause such Global Security to be
cancelled in accordance with the Trustee’s customary procedures and the Applicable Procedures. 
 (d) Transfer and Exchange
of Certificated Securities. 
 (i) If Certificated Securities are issued, a Holder may transfer a Certificated
Security by: (A) surrendering such Certificated Security for registration of transfer to the Registrar, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar; (B) if such
Certificated Security is a Restricted Security, delivering any documentation required by Section 2.15; and (C) satisfying all other requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.12 and


  
 16 








 
Section 2.15. Upon the satisfaction of conditions (A), (B) and (C) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.02, will promptly execute
and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order, will, in accordance with Section 2.02, promptly authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificated
Securities, of any authorized denomination, having like aggregate principal amount and bearing any restrictive legends that such Certificated Securities are required to bear under Section 2.15. 

(ii) If Certificated Securities are issued, a Holder may exchange a Certificated Security for other Certificated Securities of
any authorized denominations and aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be exchanged by surrendering such Securities, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the
Company, the Trustee or the Registrar, at any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purposes pursuant to Section 4.05. Whenever a Holder surrenders Securities for exchange, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.02, will
promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order and in accordance with Section 2.02, will promptly authenticate and deliver the Securities that such Holder is entitled to receive, bearing
registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding and any legends that such Certificated Securities are required to bear under Section 2.15. 

(iii) If Certificated Securities are issued, a Holder may transfer or exchange a Certificated Security for a beneficial
interest in a Global Security by (A) surrendering such Certificated Security for registration of transfer or exchange, together with any endorsements or instruments of transfer required by any of the Company, the Trustee or the Registrar, at
any office or agency maintained by the Company for such purposes pursuant to Section 4.05; (B) if such Certificated Security is a Restricted Security, delivering any documentation required by Section 2.15; (C) satisfying all
other requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.12 and Section 2.15; and (D) providing written instructions to the Trustee to make, or to direct the Registrar to make, an adjustment in its books and records with
respect to the applicable Global Security to reflect an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Securities represented by such Global Security, which instructions will contain information regarding the Depositary account to be credited
with such increase. Upon the satisfaction of conditions (A), (B), (C) and (D), the Trustee will cancel such Certificated Security and cause, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, the aggregate principal amount of Securities represented
by such Global Security to be increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Certificated Security, and will credit or cause to be credited the account of the Person specified in the instructions provided by the exchanging Holder in an amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Certificated Security. If no Global Securities are then outstanding, the Company, in accordance with Section 2.02, will promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee, and the Trustee, upon receipt
of a Company Order and in accordance with Section 2.02, will authenticate, a new Global Security in the appropriate aggregate principal amount. 

(iv) Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any action taken or not taken by the
Depositary.

 Section 2.13 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. The Company, in issuing the Securities, may use
CUSIP and ISIN numbers for such Securities (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that neither the Company nor the Trustee shall
have any responsibility for any defect in the CUSIP or ISIN number that appears on any Security, check, advice of payment or notice, and any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed
on the Securities or as contained in any notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company
shall promptly notify the Trustee in the event of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers. 
 Section 2.14 Further Issues. The
Company may, without the consent of the Holders, issue Additional Securities in an unlimited aggregate principal amount under this Indenture with the same terms as the Initial Securities; provided, that if the Additional Securities are not
fungible with the Initial Securities for United States federal income tax purposes, the Additional Securities will have separate CUSIP and ISIN numbers. Any such Additional Securities will, for all purposes of this Indenture, including waivers,
amendments and offers to purchase, be treated as part of the same series as the Initial Securities. 
 Section 2.15 Transfer
Restrictions. 
 (a) Restricted Securities. 

(i) Every Security (and any security issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) that bears, or that is required under
this Section 2.15 to bear, the Restricted Securities Legend will be deemed to be a “Restricted Security.” Each Restricted Security will be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Indenture (including in the
Restricted Securities Legend) and will bear the restricted CUSIP number for the Securities unless the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that such restrictions on transfer are eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the Company
(including, without limitation, by the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate as provided herein), and each Holder of a Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance of such Restricted Security, will be deemed to be
bound by the restrictions on transfer applicable to such Restricted Security. 
 (ii) Until the Resale Restriction
Termination Date, any Security will bear the Restricted Securities Legend unless: 
 (A) (1) such Security, since last held
by the Company or an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144), if ever, was transferred (I) to a Person other than (x) the Company, (y) an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) or (z) a Person
that was an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the three months immediately preceding such transfer and (II) pursuant to a registration statement that was effective under the Securities Act at the time of such transfer;
or 

  
 18 








 (2) such Security was transferred (I) to a Person other than (x) the
Company or (y) an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) or (z) a Person that was an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the three months immediately preceding such transfer and (II) pursuant
to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act; and 

(B) the Company delivers written notice to the Trustee and the Registrar (including, without limitation, by the Company’s
delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate as provided herein) stating that the Restricted Securities Legend may be removed from such Security and all Applicable Procedures have been complied with. 

(iii) In addition, until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, no transfer of any Restricted Security will be registered by
the Registrar unless the transferring Holder delivers to the Trustee a completed notice substantially in the form of the Form of Assignment and Transfer, which contains a certification that the transferee is SolarCity Corporation or a subsidiary
thereof or that the transferee is not an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) and has not been an affiliate of the Company (within the meaning of Rule 144) within the three months immediately preceding the date of such proposed
transfer. 
 (iv) On and after the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any Security will bear the Restricted Securities
Legend if at any time the Company determines that, to comply with law, such Security must bear the Restricted Securities Legend and the Company notifies the Trustee in writing. 

(b) Restricted Stock. 

(i) Every share of Common Stock that bears, or that is required under this Section 2.15 to bear, the Restricted Stock
Legend will be deemed to be “Restricted Stock”. Each share of Restricted Stock will be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Indenture (including in the Restricted Stock Legend set forth in Exhibit C) and
will bear a restricted CUSIP number unless such restrictions on transfer are eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent (including, without limitation, by the Company’s delivery of the Free Transferability Certificate in connection with
the Securities as provided herein) of the Company, and each Holder of Restricted Stock, by such Holder’s acceptance of Restricted Stock, will be deemed to be bound by the restrictions on transfer applicable to such Restricted Stock. 

(ii) Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of a Security, and
any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of a Restricted Security, will be issued in book-entry form by or on 

  
 19 








 
behalf of the Company and will bear the Restricted Stock Legend unless the Company delivers written notice to the transfer agent for the Common Stock stating that such shares of Common Stock need
not bear the Restricted Stock Legend. 
 (iii) On and after the Resale Restriction Termination Date, shares of Common Stock
will be issued in book-entry form and will bear the Restricted Stock Legend at any time the Company reasonably determines that, to comply with law, such shares of Common Stock must bear the Restricted Stock Legend. 

(c) As used in this Section 2.15, the term “transfer” means any sale, pledge, transfer, loan, hypothecation or other
disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security, any interest therein or any Restricted Stock. 
 (d) All Securities, whether Global
Securities or Certificated Securities, are required to bear the Non-Affiliate Legend at all times, whether before or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date. 

Section 2.16 Expiration of Restrictions. 

(a) Certificated Securities. Any Certificated Security (or any security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) that does not
constitute a Restricted Security may be exchanged for a new Security or Securities of like tenor and aggregate principal amount that do not bear the Restricted Securities Legend required by Section 2.15. To exercise such right of exchange, the
Holder of such Security must surrender such Security in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12 and deliver any additional documentation required by this Indenture in connection with such exchange. 

(b) Global Securities; Resale Restriction Termination Date. 

(i) If, on the Free Trade Date, or the next succeeding Business Day if the Free Trade Date is not a Business Day, any
Securities are represented by a Global Security that is a Restricted Security (any such Global Security, a “Restricted Global Security”), the Company will by the 375th day after
the Issue Date automatically exchange every beneficial interest in each Restricted Global Security for beneficial interests in Global Securities that do not bear the Restricted Securities Legend are not subject to the restrictions set forth in the
Restricted Securities Legend and in Section 2.15. 
 (ii) To effect such automatic exchange, the Company will
(A) deliver to the Depositary an instruction letter for the Depositary’s mandatory exchange process prior to the Free Trade Date (with a copy to the Trustee) and (B) deliver to each of the Trustee and the Registrar a duly completed
Free Transferability Certificate promptly after the Free Trade Date. The date of the Free Transferability Certificate will be known as the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”. The Trustee shall assume that the Free Trade Date has
not occurred unless and until it receives a Free Transferability Certificate. 
 (iii) Immediately upon receipt of the Free
Transferability Certificate by each of the Trustee and the Registrar: 
 (A) the Restricted Securities Legend will be deemed
removed from each of the Global Securities specified in such Free Transferability Certificate and the restricted CUSIP number will be deemed removed from each of such Global Securities and deemed replaced with the unrestricted CUSIP number; 

  
 20 








 (B) the Restricted Stock Legend will be deemed removed from any shares of Common
Stock previously issued upon conversion of the Securities; and 
 (C) thereafter, shares of Common Stock issued upon
conversion of the Securities will be assigned an unrestricted CUSIP number and will not bear the Restricted Stock Legend (except as provided in Section 2.15(b)(iii)) or any similar legend. 

(iv) Promptly after the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide
Bloomberg L.P. with a copy of the Free Transferability Certificate. 
 (v) Prior to the Company’s delivery of the Free
Transferability Certificate and afterwards, the Company and the Trustee will comply with the Applicable Procedures and the Company shall otherwise use reasonable efforts to cause each Global Security that is not required to bear the Restricted
Securities Legend to be identified by an unrestricted CUSIP number in the facilities of the Depositary by the date the Free Transferability Certificate is delivered to the Trustee and the Registrar or as promptly as possible thereafter. 

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 2.16(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), the Company will not be required to
deliver the Free Transferability Certificate if it reasonably believes that removal of the Restricted Securities Legend or the changes to the CUSIP numbers for the Securities could result in or facilitate transfers of the Securities in violation of
applicable law.

REPURCHASES 
 Section 3.01
Right of Repurchase. A repurchase of the Securities by the Company, as permitted by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made with respect to a repurchase at a Holder’s option in connection with the occurrence of a Fundamental
Change, in accordance with paragraph 6 of the Securities and Section 3.04 hereof in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Article 3. 

Section 3.02 No Sinking Fund. No sinking fund is provided for the Securities. 

Section 3.03 No Optional Redemption. The Securities will not be redeemable at the Company’s option prior to the Maturity
Date. 

  
 21 








 Section 3.04 Repurchase of Securities at Option of the Holder Upon a Fundamental
Change. 
 (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs, the Securities shall be repurchased by the Company, at the option of the Holder thereof,
in cash, at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, to (but excluding) such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), as of the
date that is no fewer than 20 Business Days and no more than 45 Business Days after the date of the Fundamental Change Notice delivered by the Company (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”), subject to satisfaction by or on
behalf of the Holder of the requirements set forth in Section 3.04(c). If the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date with respect to any Securities is after a Record Date and on or prior to the immediately following Interest Payment Date, then
(i) accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on such Securities to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date shall be paid, on such Interest Payment Date, to the Holder of record of such Securities at the Close of
Business on such Record Date and (ii) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for such Securities shall not include such accrued and unpaid interest (or any Additional Interest) and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for such Securities,
instead, shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Securities. 
 A “Fundamental Change” shall be deemed to
have occurred at such time after the Securities are originally issued that any of the following events shall occur: 
 (i) a
“person” other than the Company, its wholly owned Subsidiaries or its or their employee benefit plans, files a Schedule TO or any schedule, form or report under the Exchange Act disclosing that such person has become the direct or indirect
Beneficial Owner of the Company’s common equity representing more than 50% of the voting power of the Company’s common equity; 

(ii) the Company merges or consolidates with or into any other person (other than a Subsidiary), any merger of another person into the
Company, or the Company conveys, sells, transfers or leases all or substantially all of its assets to another person (other than a Subsidiary), other than any transaction: (A) involving a merger or consolidation that does not result in any
reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock, or (B) pursuant to which the holders of the Company’s shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the transaction have the entitlement
to exercise, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total voting power of all shares of Capital Stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the continuing or surviving corporation or direct or indirect parent thereof
immediately after the transaction, with such Holders’ proportional voting power immediately after the transaction vis-à-vis each other with respect to the securities they receive in such transaction being in substantially the same
proportions as their respective voting power vis-à-vis each other with respect to the Common Stock that they held immediately before such transaction, or (C) which is effected solely to change the Company’s jurisdiction of
incorporation and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of common stock of the surviving entity; 

(iii) the Company’s stockholders approve any plan or proposal for the Company’s liquidation or dissolution; or 

(iv) a Termination of Trading. 

  
 22 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04, for purposes of this
Indenture a Fundamental Change shall not be deemed to have occurred if at least 90% of the consideration (excluding cash payments for fractional shares and cash payments made pursuant to dissenters’ appraisal rights) in a merger or
consolidation otherwise constituting a Fundamental Change under clause (i) and/or clause (ii) above consists of shares of common stock or depositary receipts in respect of the Company’s common stock or common equity interests traded,
in each case, on the NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Global Market or the NYSE (or any of their respective successors), or will be so traded immediately following the merger or consolidation, and as a result of the merger or consolidation the Securities become
convertible into such consideration. 
 For purposes of this Section 3.04, (x) whether a Person is a “Beneficial
Owner” shall be determined in accordance with Rule 13d–3 under the Exchange Act and (y) “person” includes any syndicate or group that would be deemed to be a “person” under Section 13(d)(3) of
the Exchange Act. 
 At least three Business Days before the Fundamental Change Notice Date (as defined below), the Company shall deliver an
Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee specifying: 
 (i) the information required by Section 3.04(b); and 

(ii) whether the Company desires the Trustee to give the Fundamental Change Notice required by Section 3.04(b), and if so, the
Fundamental Change Notice to be given shall be an exhibit thereto. 
 (b) No later than 10 calendar days after the Company knows or
reasonably should know of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall mail or send pursuant to Applicable Procedures a written notice of the Fundamental Change (the “Fundamental Change Notice,” the date of such mailing
or sending, the “Fundamental Change Notice Date”) by first-class mail to the Trustee and to each Holder (and to Beneficial Owners as required by applicable law). The notice shall include a form of Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notice to be completed by the Holder and shall state: 
 (i) briefly, the nature of the Fundamental Change and the date of such Fundamental
Change; 
 (ii) the date by which the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice pursuant to Section 3.04(c) must be given; 

(iii) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; 

(iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price; 

(v) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent; 

(vi) the Conversion Rate applicable on such Conversion Date and any adjustments thereto; 

  
 23 








 (vii) that the Securities as to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been given may
be converted if they are otherwise convertible pursuant to Article 10 hereof only if the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 

(viii) that the Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect payment; 

(ix) that the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for any Security as to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been duly given and
not withdrawn will be paid promptly following the later of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the time of surrender of such Security as described in clause (viii) above; 

(x) briefly, the procedures the Holder must follow to exercise rights under this Section 3.04; 

(xi) briefly, the conversion rights, if any, of the Securities; 

(xii) the procedures for withdrawing a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice; 

(xiii) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Fundamental Change Repurchase Price on the Securities surrendered for
repurchase by the Company will cease to accrue on and after the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and 
 (xiv) the CUSIP and ISIN
number(s) of the Securities, and that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. 

Simultaneously with the provision of the Fundamental Change Notice, the Company shall publish on the Company’s website or through another
public medium the Company may use at that time a notice containing the information in above clauses (i) through (xiv). 
 (c) A Holder
may exercise its rights specified in Section 3.04(a) upon delivery of a written notice of repurchase (a “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) and any Securities to which the right is being exercised to the Trustee (for Global
Securities pursuant to the Applicable Procedures) at any time on or prior to the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, stating: 

(i) the portion of the principal amount of the Securities which the Holder will deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 or an
integral multiple thereof; 
 (ii) that such Securities shall be repurchased pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in Paragraph 6
of the Securities; and 
 (iii) if Certificated Securities have been issued, the certificate numbers of the Securities which the Holder will
deliver to be repurchased. 
 The delivery of such Security to the Trustee with the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all
necessary endorsements) at the offices of the Trustee shall be a 

  
 24 








 
condition to the receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be so paid
pursuant to this Section 3.04 only if the Security so delivered to the Trustee, if any, shall conform in all material respects to the description thereof set forth in the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. 

The Company shall repurchase from the Holder thereof, pursuant to this Section 3.04, a portion of a Security if the principal amount of
such portion is $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to the repurchase of all of a Security also apply to the repurchase of such portion of such Security. 

Any repurchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3.04 shall be consummated by the delivery of the
consideration to be received by the Holder on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. 
 (d) Procedure upon Repurchase. The Company
shall deposit cash, at the time and in the manner as provided in Section 3.06, sufficient to pay the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of all Securities to be repurchased pursuant to this Section 3.04.  

Section 3.05 Effect of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. Upon receipt by the Paying Agent of the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notice specified in Section 3.04(c), the Holder of the Security in respect of which such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice was given shall (unless such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice is withdrawn as specified in the following
paragraph) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Security. Such Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be paid to such Holder, subject to receipt of funds by the Paying Agent,
promptly following the later of (i) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date with respect to such Security (provided the conditions in Section 3.04(c) have been satisfied) and (ii) the time of delivery of such Security to the
Paying Agent by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 3.04(c). Securities in respect of which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been given by the Holder thereof may not be converted pursuant to Article 10 hereof on or
after the date of the delivery of such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice unless such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has first been validly withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs. 

A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the office of the Paying Agent
in accordance with the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the Close of Business on the last day prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying: 

(a) the principal amount of the Security with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, in multiples of $1,000; 

(b) if Certificated Securities have been issued, the certificate number of the Security in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being
submitted; and 
 (c) the principal amount, if any, of such Security which remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notice. 

  
 25 








 If the Securities are held in book entry form, the notices must also comply with the appropriate procedures of
DTC. 
 Section 3.06 Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, as the case may be, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent (or, if the Company or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of either of them is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold
in trust as provided in Section 2.04) an amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on such Business Day), sufficient to pay the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of all the Securities or portions thereof which are
to be repurchased as of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. 
 Section 3.07 Securities Repurchased in Part. Any Certificated
Security that is to be repurchased only in part shall be surrendered at the office of the Paying Agent (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and
the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security, without service charge, a new
Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to, and in exchange for, the portion of the principal amount of the Security so surrendered which is not repurchased, or in the
case of a Global Security, the Company shall instruct the Registrar to decrease such Global Security by the principal amount of the repurchased portion of the Security surrendered. 

Section 3.08 Repurchases Following Acceleration of the Securities. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or the Securities to
the contrary, there shall be no repurchase of any Securities pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof if the principal amount of the Securities has been accelerated pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Indenture and such acceleration shall not
have been rescinded on or before the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Securities). The
Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Securities tendered to it for repurchase pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof during the continuance of such an acceleration (except in the case of an acceleration resulting
from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Securities) and shall cancel any instructions for a book-entry transfer of the Securities in compliance with the procedures of the
Depositary, in which case, upon such return or cancellation, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, as the case may be, with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. 

Section 3.09 Covenant to Comply with Securities Laws Upon Repurchase of Securities. When complying with the provisions of Article
3 hereof (provided that such repurchase constitutes an “issuer tender offer” for purposes of Rule 13e–4 (which term, as used herein, includes any successor provision thereto) under the Exchange Act at the time of such offer or
repurchase), the Company shall, to the extent applicable, (a) comply with Rule 13e–4 and Rule 14e–1 (or any successor provision) under the Exchange Act, (b) file the related Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or report)
under the Exchange Act, and (c) otherwise comply with any applicable federal and state securities laws so as to permit the rights and obligations under Section 3.04 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in
Section 3.06. 

  
 26 








 Section 3.10 Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return
to the Company any cash that remains unclaimed as provided in Paragraph 10 of the Securities, held by them for the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price; provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of
cash deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 3.06 exceeds the aggregate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to repurchase as of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date,
then, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Company, promptly after the Business Day following the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Trustee shall return any such excess to the Company. 

ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS

 Section 4.01 Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly make all payments in respect of the Securities on the
dates and in the manner provided in the Securities or pursuant to this Indenture. Any amounts of cash or shares of Common Stock to be given to the Trustee or Paying Agent shall be deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m.
(New York City time) by the Company on the required date. The Company may, at its option, make payments in respect of the Securities by check mailed to a Holder’s registered address (or, if requested by a Holder of more than $1,000,000
principal amount of the Securities, by wire transfer to the account within the United States designated in writing by such Holder) or, with respect to Global Securities, by wire transfer. The Company shall make any required interest (including
Additional Interest) payments to the Person in whose name each Security is registered at the Close of Business on the Record Date for such interest payment. The principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any
payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium shall be considered paid on the applicable date due if on such date prior to 10 a.m. New York City time (or, in the case of a Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, on the Business Day
following the applicable Fundamental Change Repurchase Date) the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with this Indenture, cash sufficient to pay all such amounts then due. Payment of principal will be made upon presentation of the
Securities. 
 Section 4.02 SEC and Other Reports. 

(a) The Company shall, so long as any of the Securities are outstanding, file with the Trustee the Company’s annual and quarterly
reports, information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) (the “SEC Reports”) that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant
to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act within 15 days of the date on which it would be required to file the SEC Reports with the SEC (giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act). Documents filed by the
Company with the SEC via the EDGAR system will be deemed to be filed with the Trustee as of the time such documents are filed via EDGAR. The Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or
reports have been filed pursuant to the EDGAR system. The 

  
 27 








 
Company also shall comply with the other provisions of TIA Section 314(a). Delivery of any reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the
Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which
the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate). 
 (b) If at any time the Company is not subject to the
reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company will, so long as any of the Securities will, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities
Act, furnish to Holders, Beneficial Owners and prospective purchasers of the Securities or any shares issuable upon conversion of the Securities, upon their request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the
Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Securities pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Company will take such further action as any Holder or Beneficial Owner of such Securities may reasonably request to the extent from time
to time required to enable such Holders or Beneficial Owners to sell such Securities in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time. 

Section 4.03 Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year
(beginning with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2014) of the Company an Officers’ Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof, the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of
the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of
which they may have knowledge. 
 Section 4.04 Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will
execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture. 

Section 4.05 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain an office or agency of the Trustee, Registrar, Paying
Agent and Conversion Agent where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, repurchase or conversion and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in
respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Corporate Trust Office shall initially be such office or agency for all of the aforesaid purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and of
any change in the location, of any such office or agency (other than a change in the location of the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee). If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to
furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the address of the Trustee set forth in Section 12.02. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Securities may be presented or surrendered
for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations.

 Section 4.06 Restricted Securities Legend; Additional Interest. 

(a) If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last Issue Date of the
Initial Securities, the Company fails to timely file any document or report that the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder
and other than reports on Form 8-K), as applicable, or the Securities are not otherwise Freely Tradable by Holders other than Affiliates of the Company (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the terms of this Indenture or
the Securities), the Company will pay Additional Interest on the Securities at a rate equal to 0.50% per annum of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding for each day during such six-month period for which the
Company’s failure to file has occurred and is continuing. 
 (b) Further, if, at any time on or after the 375th day after the last
Issue Date of the Initial Securities: 
 (i) the Restricted Securities Legend is included in the Securities, 

(ii) the Securities are assigned a restricted CUSIP number, or 

(iii) the Securities are not otherwise Freely Tradable pursuant to Rule 144 without restrictions by Holders other than
Affiliates of the Company (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or this Indenture or the Securities) (each of clause (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Restricted Event”), 

the Company will pay Additional Interest on the Securities for each day on which such Restricted Event is continuing at an annual rate equal to 0.50% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities. Additional Interest payable as a result of the provisions described in this Section 4.06 will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular
interest on the Securities. 
 (c) In no event shall Additional Interest payable pursuant to this Section 4.06, taken together with all
Additional Interest described in Section 6.01, exceed 0.50% per annum. 
 Section 4.07 Additional Interest; Notice. In
the event that the Company is required to pay any Additional Interest, the Company shall provide a direction or order in the form of a written notice to the Trustee (and if the Trustee is not the Paying Agent, to the Paying Agent) of the
Company’s obligation to pay such Additional Interest no later than three Business Days prior to date on which any such Additional Interest is scheduled to be paid. Such notice shall set forth the amount of such Additional Interest to be paid by
the Company on such payment date and direct the Trustee (or, if the Trustee is not the Paying Agent, to the Paying Agent) to make payment to the extent it receives funds from the Company to do so. The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty
or responsibility to any Holder to determine whether any Additional Interest is payable, or with respect to the nature, extent, or calculation of the amount of any Additional Interest owed, or with respect to the method employed in such calculation
of any Additional Interest.

SUCCESSOR CORPORATION 

Section 5.01 When Company May Merge or Transfer Assets. The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or
sell, convey, lease or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any other Person in any one transaction or series of related transactions, or permit any Person to consolidate with or merge into the Company, unless: 

(a) either (i) the Company shall be the surviving Person or, if the Company is not the surviving Person, (ii) either the surviving
Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the Person to which the Company’s assets are so transferred shall be a corporation organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any
state thereof or the District of Columbia; provided, however, that the surviving Person shall expressly assume, by an indenture supplemental hereto, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee,
all of the obligations of the Company under the Securities and this Indenture; 
 (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction,
no Event of Default, and no event that, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have occurred and be continuing; and 

(c) if the Company is not the surviving Person, then either the surviving Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is
merged or the Person to which the Company’s assets are so transferred shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, assignment,
transfer, lease or other disposition complies with the requirements of this Indenture, and an Opinion of Counsel stating that this Indenture as supplemented constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company or surviving Person, as
applicable, subject to customary exceptions. 
 The successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or the
successor Person to which such conveyance, transfer, sale or lease is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named
as the Company herein; and thereafter, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations and covenants under this Indenture and the Securities. Subject to Section 9.06, the Company, the Trustee and the successor Person shall enter into a
supplemental indenture to evidence the succession and substitution of such successor Person and such discharge and release of the Company. 

ARTICLE 6 
 DEFAULTS AND
REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01 Events of Default. Each of the following events shall be an “Event of Default”:

 (a) the Company defaults in any payment of interest (including Additional Interest) due and payable on the Securities, and such default
continues for a period of 30 days; 

  
 30 








 (b) [Reserved] 

(c) the Company defaults in the payment of all or any part of the principal on the Securities and accrued and unpaid interest when the same
becomes due and payable at its Maturity Date, or upon required repurchase following a Fundamental Change; 
 (d) the Company fails to
provide a Fundamental Change Notice or a notice of a Make Whole Adjustment Event; 
 (e) the Company defaults in its obligation to deliver
the shares of Common Stock required to be delivered upon conversion of the Securities, together with cash in lieu thereof in respect of any fractional shares, upon conversion of any Securities; 

(f) the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries defaults under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or
by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed (other than (i) any non-recourse indebtedness for money borrowed or (ii) indebtedness for money borrowed of a Subsidiary of the Company if such Subsidiary is a
special purpose entity that serves as a vehicle to obtain financing that is otherwise non-recourse to the Company and its other Subsidiaries) (“Indebtedness”) by the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, whether such
Indebtedness exists before the Company’s entrance into this Indenture or is created after such date, if the default: 

(i) is caused by a failure to pay at Stated Maturity the principal of such Indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace
period provided in such Indebtedness on the date of such default (a “Payment Default”), or 
 (ii) results
in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity, 
 and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with
the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $50.0 million or more unless such Payment Default is cured or waived or such acceleration
is rescinded, stayed or annulled within 30 days after written notice from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities to the Company and the Trustee (provided, however that if any such failure or acceleration
referred to in (i) or (ii) above shall cease to be cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, then the Event of Default by reason thereof shall be deemed not to have occurred); 

(g) the Company defaults in its performance of any covenant or agreement in respect of the Securities or this Indenture for 60 days after
receipt by the Company of a Notice of Default from the Trustee or after receipt by the Company and the Trustee of a Notice of Default from the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding; 

(h) [Reserved] 

  
 31 








 (i) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 

(i) commences a voluntary case; 

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; 

(iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; or 

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or 

(v) takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; or 

(j) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: 

(i) is for relief against the Company in an involuntary case; 

(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company or for any substantial part of its property; 

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company; or 

(iv) grants any similar relief under any foreign laws; 

and in each such case the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days. 

The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary
or is 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. 

The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar federal, state or non-U.S. law for the relief of
debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. 

A Default under clause (g) is not an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities then outstanding notify the Company (and in the case of such notice by Holders, the Trustee) of the Default and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify
the Default, demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. 
 The Company shall deliver
to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of an Officers’ Certificate of any Default and any event of which it becomes aware that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event
of Default, its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

  
 32 








 Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Securities to the contrary (including
Section 4.02), at the election of the Company, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to (i) the Company’s failure to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 314(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act any documents or
reports that it is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or (ii) the Company’s failure to comply with its reporting obligations as set forth in Section 4.02 (the obligations described
in clauses (i) and (ii) above, the “Company’s Filing Obligations”) shall for the first 270 calendar days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest
(in addition to any additional interest described in Section 4.06) (together with the additional interest described in Section 4.06, “Additional Interest”) on the Securities at an annual rate equal to
(x) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Securities outstanding for the first 180 days beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of Default first occurs and (y) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount
of the Securities outstanding for the last 90 days of such 270-day period as long as such Event of Default is continuing. If the Company so elects to pay Additional Interest, any such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on
the same dates as the interest payable on the Securities. On the 271st calendar day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with the Company’s Filing Obligations is not cured or
waived prior to such 271st calendar day), the Securities shall be subject to acceleration under Section 6.02. This provision shall not affect the rights of Holders in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default. In the event the
Company does not elect to pay the Additional Interest following an Event of Default relating to the Company’s Filing Obligations in accordance with this provision or the Company elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional
Interest when due, the Securities shall be immediately subject to acceleration under Section 6.02. In order to elect to pay the Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 270 days after the occurrence of an Event of Default
relating to the failure by the Company to comply with the Company’s Filing Obligations in accordance with this provision, the Company must notify all Holders of the Securities, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election on or prior to
the Close of Business on the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. Upon the Company’s failure to timely give such notice, the Securities shall be immediately subject to acceleration under Section 6.02. In addition, the Company
shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating (i) that the Additional Interest is payable under this Section 6.01, and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a Trust Officer
receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a notice, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest is payable. If the Additional Interest has been paid by the Company directly to the Persons entitled to them, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. 
 In no event shall Additional Interest
payable pursuant to this section, taken together with all Additional Interest described in Section 4.06, exceed 0.50% per annum. 

Section 6.02 Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(i) or 6.01(j)) occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare the principal amount of Securities
outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, on all the Securities to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such accelerated 

  
 33 








 
amount shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Sections 6.01(i) or 6.01(j) occurs and is continuing, the principal amount of Securities outstanding plus accrued
and unpaid interest on all the Securities shall, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or any Holder, become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. The Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding by notice to the Trustee and the Company and without notice to any other Holder may rescind any declaration of acceleration if the rescission is before any
judgment or decree has been obtained and if all existing Events of Default have been cured (other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Securities which has become due solely by reason of the declaration of acceleration) and all amounts owing
to the Trustee have been paid, if any, that have become due solely as a result of acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto. 

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to
collect the payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium on the Securities or to enforce the performance of any provision of the
Securities or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce
any of the Securities in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event
of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative. 
 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past
Defaults. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding by notice to the Trustee and without notice to any other Holder may waive an existing default and its consequences except (a) an
Event of Default described in Section 6.01(a), (b) a default in respect of a provision that under Section 9.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder or (c) a default which constitutes a failure to convert any
Security in accordance with the terms of Article 10. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any consequent right. 

Section 6.05 Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time
outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that
conflicts with law or this Indenture or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or
not any such directions are unduly prejudicial to such Holders) or would potentially involve the Trustee in personal liability; provided, however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it against all liabilities, losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 

  
 34 








 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. A Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to this
Indenture or the Securities only if: 
 (a) such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of
Default; 
 (b) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding make a written request;

 (c) such Holder shall have offered indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee to pursue such proceeding as trustee; and 

(d) the Trustee has failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days after such notice and offer of indemnity and, during such 60-day
period, has not received from the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding at the time a direction inconsistent with such request. 

A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of any other Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other Holder.

 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any
Holder to bring suit for the enforcement of payment of principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium on or after the due dates expressed in such
Holder’s Securities, and to convert the Securities in accordance with Article 10, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 

Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a) or (c) occurs and is
continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) to the extent
lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may
file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company, its creditors or its property and,
unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by
each Holder to make payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
 Section 6.10
Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money in the following order: 

FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07; 

  
 35 








 SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, accrued and unpaid
interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to such amounts due and payable on the Securities; and 

THIRD: the balance, if any, to the Company. 

The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 6.10. At least 15 days before such
record date, the Company shall mail to each Holder and the Trustee a notice that states the record date, the payment date and the amount to be paid. 

Section 6.11 Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit
against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not
apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding. 

Section 6.12 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) shall not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and
the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the
execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
 ARTICLE 7 

TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01
Duties of Trustee. 
 (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will be required to exercise such of the

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default: 

(i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no

 36 








 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely,
as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of
any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). 
 (c) The Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
 (i) this paragraph does not limit the
effect of Section 7.01(b); 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a
Trust Officer unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 
 (iii) the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it pursuant to Section 6.05. 

(d) Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to Sections 7.01(a), (b) and (c). 

(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it. 

(f) Money or Common Stock held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. 
 (h) Every provision of this Indenture
relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Article 7 and to the provisions of the TIA, and the provisions of this Article 7 shall apply to the Trustee and
each Agent. 
 (i) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of a Default or an Event of Default unless (i) a Trust Officer of the

this Indenture or (ii) a Trust Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof. 
 (j) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond
or surety in respect of the performance of its powers or duties hereunder. 
 (k) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for

 37 








 (l) Neither the Trustee nor any Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the
conversion terms of the Securities, and whether any adjustments thereto are required.

 Section 7.02 Rights of Trustee. 

(a) The Trustee may conclusively rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document or inquire as to the performance by the Company of any of its covenants in this Indenture. The Trustee may, however, in its
discretion make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of
the Company, personally or by agent or attorney at the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation. 

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting or to establish matters, it may require an Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of
Counsel or both. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel. 

(c) The Trustee may act through agents, attorneys or custodians and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent,
attorney or custodian appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith

against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, and only to the extent required by the terms of this Indenture. 

  
 38 








 (h) 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, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder,
including, without limitation, the DTC Custodian, Registrar, Paying Agents and Conversion Agent. 
 (i) The Trustee may request that the
Company deliver an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of officers authorized at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which Officers’ Certificate may be signed by any Person
authorized to sign an Officers’ Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously delivered and not superseded. 

Section 7.03 Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of
Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Paying Agent, Registrar, Conversion Agent or co-registrar may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must
comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. 
 Section 7.04 Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and
makes no representation as to the validity, priority or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities, it shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of
the Company in this Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Securities or in the Securities other than the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. 

Section 7.05 Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder
notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it is known to a Trust Officer or written notice of it is received by the Trustee. Except in the case of a Default described in Section 6.01(a), the Trustee may withhold the notice
if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders. The second sentence of this Section 7.05 shall be in lieu of the proviso to TIA Section 315(b) and
such proviso is hereby expressly excluded from this Indenture, as permitted by the TIA. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee has received written notice of such Default. 

Section 7.06 Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each December 31 beginning with December 31, 2014, and
in any event prior to March 1 in each year thereafter, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of December 31 each year that complies with TIA Section 313(a), if and to the extent required by such subsection. The
Trustee shall also comply with TIA Section 313(b). 
 A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Holders shall be filed with
the SEC and each stock exchange (if any) on which the Securities are listed. The Company agrees to notify promptly the Trustee whenever the Securities become listed on any stock exchange and of any delisting thereof. 

  
 39 








 Section 7.07 Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from
time to time such compensation as shall be agreed upon from time to time in writing for its services. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the
Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred or made by it, including costs of collection, in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, fees and
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall fully indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense (including reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection with the acceptance and administration of this Indenture and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the
Company, any Holder or any other Person) in connection with the exercise of its rights or powers. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company of any
claim for which it may seek indemnity of which a Trust Officer has actually received written notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure shall have materially prejudiced the Company. The
Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. If the Trustee is advised by counsel in writing that it may have available to it defenses which are in conflict with the defenses available to the Company, then the
Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee through the
Trustee’s own willful misconduct or negligence. The Company need not pay for any settlement made by the Trustee without the Company’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. All indemnifications and releases from liability
granted hereunder to the Trustee shall extend to its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, custodians, successors and assigns. 

To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Securities on all money
or property held or collected by the Trustee other than money or property held in trust to pay the principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium
on particular Securities. 
 The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Trustee and the discharge of this Indenture. In the event that the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or 6.01(j) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses
of administration under the Bankruptcy Law. 
 “Trustee” for the purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any
predecessor Trustee and the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder and each Agent and other Person employed to act hereunder; provided, however, that the negligence or willful misconduct of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the rights of
any other Trustee hereunder. 

  
 40 








 Section 7.08 Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so
notifying the Company at least 30 days prior to the proposed resignation. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company. The Company
shall remove the Trustee if: 
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; 

(b) the Trustee is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent; 

(c) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or 

(d) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. 

If the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. 

A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company. Thereupon the
resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture. The successor Trustee shall mail a notice of its succession to
Holders. The retiring Trustee shall upon payment of all of its costs and the costs of its agents and counsel promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07. 

If a successor Trustee does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the
Holders of 10% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding may petition at the expense of the Company any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 Notwithstanding
the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

Section 7.09 Successor Trustee by Merger. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or
substantially all its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation or banking association without any further act shall be the successor Trustee. 

In case at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by
this Indenture, any of the Securities shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee, and deliver such Securities so authenticated; and in
case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any such successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee. 

  
 41 








 Section 7.10 Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy
the requirements of TIA Section 310(a). The Trustee shall have (or, in the case of a corporation included in a bank holding company system, the related bank holding company shall have) a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as
set forth in its (or its related bank holding company’s) most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), subject to the penultimate paragraph thereof; provided, however,
that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA Section 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Company are outstanding if the
requirements for such exclusion set forth in TIA Section 310(b)(1) are met. 
 Section 7.11 Preferential Collection of
Claims Against Company. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA Section 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA Section 311(a) to the
extent indicated therein. 
 Section 7.12 Trustee’s Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the
Trustee for written instructions from the Company 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 of the Company actually receives such application, 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 response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted. 

ARTICLE 8 
 DISCHARGE OF
INDENTURE 
 Section 8.01 Discharge of Liability on Securities. When (a) the Company delivers to the Registrar all
outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to Section 2.07) for cancellation or (b) all outstanding Securities have become due and payable, and the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee or delivers to the
Holders, as applicable, cash and shares of Common Stock (solely to satisfy outstanding conversions, if applicable) sufficient to pay all amounts due and owing on all outstanding Securities (other than Securities replaced pursuant to
Section 2.07), and if in either case the Company pays all other sums payable hereunder by the Company, then this Indenture shall, subject to Section 7.07, cease to be of further effect. The Trustee shall acknowledge satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Securities on demand of the Company accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel and at the cost and expense of the Company. 

  
 42 








 Section 8.02 Repayment to the Company. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
promptly turn over to the Company upon request any excess money or securities held by them at any time. 
 Subject to any applicable
abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Company upon request any money held by them for payments on the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years after the date on which such payments became due, and,
thereafter, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors and all liability of the Trustee or Paying Agent with respect to such money will cease. 

ARTICLE 9

 43 








 After an amendment under this Section 9.01 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to
Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all such Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section. 

Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders. With the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Securities at the time outstanding, the Company, the Trustee and the Paying Agent may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities. However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment to this Indenture or the Securities
may not: 
 (a) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; 

(b) reduce any interest rate referred to in Paragraph 1 of the Securities or change the time for payment of interest (including Additional
Interest) thereon; 
 (c) reduce the principal amount of or change the Maturity Date of any Security; 

(d) reduce the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of any Security or change the time at which the Securities may be repurchased;

or this Section 9.02 or to make any change in such provision for modification; 
 (h) waive a continuing default or Event of Default
regarding any payment on the Securities; or 
 (i) except as required by this Indenture as of September 30, 2014 (without giving effect
to any amendments, side agreements or supplemental indentures thereto), make any change that adversely affects a Holder’s rights under Sections 3.04 to 3.06 hereof, under Article 10 hereof or under Paragraph 6 or 7 of the Securities. 

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

  
 44 








 After an amendment under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to each
Holder a notice briefly describing the amendment. The failure to give such notice to all such Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section. 

Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article shall comply with
the TIA. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents, Waivers and Actions. A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a
Holder of a Security shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Security or portion of the Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Security, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the
Security. 
 However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Security or portion of
the Security if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the supplemental indenture setting forth the amendment or waiver becomes effective. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Holder.
An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with the terms of the supplemental indenture, which shall become effective upon the execution thereof by the Trustee. 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or
take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their
duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent
shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of
Securities. Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided
for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company shall so determine, new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company
and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for outstanding Securities. 
 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Supplemental
Indentures. Upon the request of the Company, the Trustee shall sign any supplemental indenture authorized pursuant to this Article 9 if the amendment contained therein does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of
the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign such supplemental indenture. In signing such supplemental indenture the Trustee shall be provided with, and (subject to the provisions of Section 7.01) shall be fully protected in
relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such supplement or amendment is a legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms. 

  
 45 








 Section 9.07 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any
supplemental indenture under this Article, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter
authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby. 
 ARTICLE 10 

CONVERSIONS 

Section 10.01 Conversion Privilege and Consideration. 

(a) A Holder may convert such Security at any time until the Close of Business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the
Maturity Date. The “Conversion Rate” shall be that identified as such in Paragraph 7 of the Securities, subject to adjustment as herein set forth. A Holder may, during any applicable time referred to herein, convert a portion of the
principal amount of a Security if the portion converted is in a $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000. Provisions of this Indenture that apply to conversion of all of a Security also apply to conversion of a portion of a
Security. 
 Except as specifically described in this Article 10, the Conversion Rate will not be subject to adjustment in the case of the
issuance of any shares of Common Stock, or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock, or the right, option or warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock, or such convertible or exchangeable securities. 

(b) Subject to Section 10.01(a), upon conversion, a Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities surrendered, a
number of shares of Common Stock equal to (i) $1,000 multiplied by (ii) the applicable Conversion Rate on such Conversion Date. 

(c) The Company shall deliver such shares of Common Stock to the Holder on the third Trading Day following the Conversion Date;
provided, however, that for any conversion that occurs on or after the Record Date for the payment of interest on the Securities on the Maturity Date and until the Close of Business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately
preceding the Maturity Date, the Company will deliver such shares on the Maturity Date. 
 Section 10.02 Conversion
Procedure. To convert a Security, a Holder must satisfy the requirements set forth in Paragraph 7 of the Securities. The first Business Day on which the Holder satisfies all those requirements and delivers an irrevocable conversion notice
together with such Holder’s Securities for conversion is the conversion date (the “Conversion Date”). 
 The Person in
whose name the certificate is registered shall be treated as a shareholder of record as of the Close of Business on the Conversion Date. Upon conversion of a Security in its entirety, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Security. 

No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends on, or other distributions with respect to, any shares of Common Stock except as provided
in this Article 10. 

  
 46 








 Upon conversion of a Security, that portion of accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional
Interest), if any, through the Conversion Date with respect to the converted Security shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather, subject to Section 11.01(b), shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through
delivery shares of Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) for the Security being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof. The Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for accrued
interest, if any. 
 If the last day on which a Security may be converted is a Legal Holiday, the Security may be surrendered on the next
succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday. 
 If the Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the conversion and the amount of any cash paid in lieu of fractional shares shall be based on the total principal amount of the Securities converted. Upon surrender of a Security that is converted in part, the Company
shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Security in an authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unconverted portion of the Security surrendered, or in the case of a Global Security, the
Company shall instruct the Registrar to decrease such Global Security by the principal amount of the converted portion of the Security surrendered. 

Section 10.03 Fractional Shares. The Company will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of a Security.
Instead, the Company will pay cash in lieu of fractional shares by multiplying the Closing Sale Price of a full share of Common Stock on the Conversion Date (or if the Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the next following Trading Day) by the
fractional amount and rounding the product to the nearest whole cent. Whether fractional shares are issuable upon a conversion will be determined on the basis of the total number of Securities that the Holder is then converting into Common Stock and
the aggregate number of fractional shares, if any, of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion. 
 All calculations under this Article 10
shall be made to the nearest cent or to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share, as the case may be. 
 Section 10.04 Taxes on
Conversion. If a Holder submits a Security for conversion, the Company shall pay all stamp and all other duties, if any, which may be imposed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority thereof or therein with
respect to the issuance of shares, if any, of Common Stock upon the conversion. However, the Holder shall pay any such tax which is due because the Holder requests the shares to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. The Conversion
Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares, if any, of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax which will be due because the
shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulations. 

Section 10.05 Company to Provide Stock. The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Securities under this Article 10, and from
time to time as may be necessary, reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to permit the conversion of the Securities. 

  
 47 








 Any shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Securities shall be newly issued
shares or treasury shares, shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and nonassessable, and shall be free from preemptive rights and shall be free of any lien or adverse claim. The Company will endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and
state securities laws regulating the offer and delivery of Common Stock, if any, upon conversion of Securities, if any, and will list or cause to have quoted such shares of Common Stock on each national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter
market or such other market on which the shares of Common Stock are then listed or quoted. 
 Section 10.06 Adjustment for Change in
Capital Stock. If, after the Issue Date of the Securities, the Company: 
 (a) pays a dividend or makes a distribution payable
exclusively in shares of Common Stock on all or substantially all shares of the Company’s Common Stock; 
 (b) subdivides the
outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares; or 
 (c) combines the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares; 
 then the Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula: 

 

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	OS’	  	
	  	  	  	OS	  	

 where, 
  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the Open of Business on the effective date of such subdivision or
combination, as the case may be;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of such subdivision or
combination, as the case may be;
		
	OS’ =	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination, as the case may be; and
		
	OS =	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the Open of Business on the effective date of
such subdivision or combination, as the case may be.


  
 48 








 Any adjustment made under this Section 10.06 shall become effective immediately after the
Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such dividend or distribution, or the Open of Business on the effective date for such subdivision or combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this
Section 10.06 is declared but not so paid or made, or the outstanding shares of Common Stock are not so subdivided or combined, as the case may be, the applicable Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the
Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, or to effect such subdivision or combination, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, share subdivision or share combination had not
been declared. 
 Section 10.07 Adjustment for Rights Issue. If, after the Issue Date of the Securities, the Company distributes
any rights, options or warrants to all holders of the Company’s Common Stock entitling them to purchase (for a period expiring within 45 days after the date of issuance) shares of Common Stock at a price per share less (or securities
convertible into Common Stock having a conversion price per share that is less) than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including the Trading Day immediately preceding
the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: 
  

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	(O + N)	  	
	  	  	  	O+((N × P)/M)	  	

 where: 
  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	O =	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	N =	  	the number of additional shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants;
		
	P =	  	the per-share offering price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants for the additional shares plus the per share consideration (if any) the Company receives for such rights, options or warrants; and
		
	M =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date with respect to the distribution.

 Any increase made under this Section 10.07 will be made successively whenever any such rights, options or
warrants are distributed and shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights,
options or 

  
 49 








 
warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the distribution of such rights, options or warrants been
made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the applicable Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be
in effect if such distribution had not occurred. 
 For purposes of this Section 10.07, in determining whether any rights, options or
warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock for each Trading Day in the applicable 10 consecutive Trading Day period, there shall be taken into account
any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. 

Section 10.08 Adjustment for Other Distributions. If, after the Issue Date of the Securities, the Company distributes to
all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any of its debt, securities, assets or any rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company (including securities or cash, but excluding (a) dividends or distributions
(including subdivisions) referred to in Section 10.06 and distributions of rights, warrants or options referred to in Section 10.07, (b) dividends or other distributions paid exclusively in cash (to which this Section 10.08 shall
apply) and (c) any Spin-off to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 10.08 shall apply) (“Distributed Property”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted, subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of
this Section 10.08, in accordance with the formula: 
  

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	M	  	
	  	  	  	M - F	  	

 where: 
  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	M =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
		
	F =	  	the fair market value, as determined by the Board of Directors, of the portion of those assets, securities, rights, warrants or options to be distributed in respect of each share of Common Stock immediately prior to the Close of
Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution.

 Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date
for such distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “F” as set forth above is equal to or greater than “M” as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, 

  
 50 








 
adequate provisions shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive on conversion in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of the Securities held by such Holder, in addition
to the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received had such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior
to the record date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the
Board of Directors thereof determines “F” for purposes of this Section 10.08 by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any Securities, it must in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same period used
in computing the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. 

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 10.08 where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on
the Common Stock in shares of capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit, where such capital stock or similar equity interest is listed or quoted (or will be listed or
quoted upon consummation of the Spin-off) on a U.S. national securities exchange or reasonably comparable non-U.S. equivalent, which is referred to herein as a “Spin-off,” the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following
formula:  
  

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	F+MP	  	
	  	  	  	MP	  	

  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for the Spin-off;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for the Spin-off;
		
	F =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the capital stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period
immediately following, and including, the effective date for the Spin-off (such period, the “Valuation Period”); and
		
	MP =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph of this Section 10.08 will be made
immediately after the Open of Business on the day after the last day of the Valuation Period, but will be given effect as of the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for the Spin-off. For purposes of determining the Conversion Rate in
respect of any conversion during the 10 Trading Days commencing on the effective date for any Spin-off, references within the portion of this Section 10.08 related to “Spin-offs” to 10 consecutive Trading Days shall be deemed replaced
with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the effective date for such Spin-off to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. If a Holder converts a Security and the Conversion Date occurs during the period from,
but excluding, the Common Stock Record Date of a Spin-off to, and excluding, the first Trading Day of the Valuation Period for such Spin-off, (i) the reference in the above 

  
 51 








 
definition of “F” to “the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period” shall be deemed replaced with a reference to “the Trading Day”, (ii) the Company will deliver
the consideration due to such Holder upon conversion of such Security on the third Business Day after the first Trading Day of the Valuation Period for such Spin-off, and (iii) the Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock shall be
issuable upon such conversion will be deemed to become the holder of record of such shares as of the Close of Business on the first Trading Day of the Valuation Period for such Spin-off. 

For purposes of this Section 10.08, in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or
purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for each Trading Day in the applicable 10 consecutive Trading Day period, 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. 

If, prior to a Conversion Date, a Common Stock Record Date for a Spin-off has been set but the relevant dividend or distribution has not yet
resulted in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate and a converting Holder is not entitled to participate in the dividend or distribution with respect to the shares of Common Stock such Holder receives upon conversion (whether because such Holder was
not a holder of such shares of Common Stock on the effective date for such dividend or distribution or otherwise), then as promptly as practicable following the Conversion Date, the Company will deliver to such Holder a number of additional shares
of Common Stock that reflects the increase to the Conversion Rate that resulted from the Spin-off. 
 For purposes of this
Section 10.08, rights, options or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including shares of Common Stock (either initially
or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): 

(a) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; 

(b) are not exercisable; and 

(c) are also issued in respect of future issuances of the Common Stock, 

shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this Section 10.08 (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 10.08
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 10.08. 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 

  
 52 








 
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 10.08 was made: 
 (i) in the case of any such rights, options or
warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (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 redemption or purchase price
received by a holder or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights, options or warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or purchase;
and 
 (ii) 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. 

Section 10.09 Adjustment for Cash Distributions. If, after the Issue Date of the Securities, the Company distributes to all or
substantially all holders of its Common Stock any cash, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula: 
  

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	SP	  	
	  	  	  	SP – C	  	

  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such distribution;
		
	SP =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
		
	C =	  	the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock;

 Any increase to the applicable Conversion Rate made under this Section 10.09 shall become effective
immediately after the Close of Business on the Common Stock Record Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the applicable Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of
Directors thereof 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. 

  
 53 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” as set forth above is equal to or greater than
“SP” as set forth above, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive on the date on which the relevant cash dividend or distribution is distributed to Holders of
Common Stock, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities, the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder owned a number of shares equal to the Conversion Rate on the record date for such distribution. If such dividend or
distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 

Section 10.10 Adjustment for Company Tender Offer. If, after the Issue Date of the Securities, the Company or any
Subsidiary of the Company makes a payment to holders of the shares of Common Stock in respect of a tender or exchange offer, other than an odd-lot offer, by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for shares of Common Stock, to the extent that the
cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the average of the Closing Sale Prices over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including the Trading Day following the last
date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Expiration Date”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 

 

									
		  	CR’ = CR	  	×	  	F + (SP × OS’)	  	
	  	  	  	OS × SP	  	

  

			
	CR’ =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Open of Business on the Trading Day following the Expiration Date;
		
	CR =	  	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Open of Business on the Trading Day following the Expiration Date;
		
	F =	  	the fair market value, as determined by the Board of Directors, of the aggregate consideration payable in such tender or exchange offer (up to any maximum amount specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) for all
shares of Common Stock the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company purchases in such tender or exchange offer, such fair market value to be measured as of the expiration time of the tender or exchange offer (the “Expiration
Time”);
		
	OS =	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Expiration Time (prior to giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer);
		
	OS’ =	  	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Expiration Time (after giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer); and
		
	SP =	  	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day following the Expiration Date.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph of this Section 10.10 will be made
immediately after the Open of Business on the 11th Trading Day 

  
 54 








 
following the Expiration Date but will be given effect at the Open of Business on the Trading Day following the Expiration Date. For purposes of determining the Conversion Rate, in respect of any
conversion during the 10 Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day following the Expiration Date, references within this Section 10.10 to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from,
and including, the Trading Day following the Expiration Time to, but excluding, the relevant Conversion Date. 
 In the event that the
Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases,
or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made. 

Section 10.11 When No Adjustment Required. No adjustment need be made as a result of: 

(a) the issuance of the rights pursuant to the Company’s adoption of a stockholders rights plan that provides that each share of Common
Stock issued upon conversion of the Securities at any time prior to the distribution of separate certificates representing rights will be entitled to receive the right (a “Stockholder Rights Plan”); 

(b) the distribution of separate certificates representing the rights under a Stockholder Rights Plan; 

(c) the exercise or redemption of the rights in accordance with any rights agreement under a Stockholder Rights Plan; 

(d) the termination or invalidation of the rights under a Stockholder Rights Plan; 

(e) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or
interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Stock under any plan; 
 (f) upon
the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; 

(g) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant or right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible
security not described in clause (f) above and outstanding as of the date the Securities were first issued; 
 (h) ordinary course of
business stock repurchases that are not tender offers or exchange offers referred to in Section 10.10, including structured or derivative transactions pursuant to a stock repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors; 

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

  
 55 








 (j) any accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest); or 

(k) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible
security outstanding as of the date the Securities were first issued. 
 If any event described in Section 10.11(a) through
(d) occurs, Holders will receive the rights upon conversion, unless, prior to any conversion, the rights have separated from the Common Stock. If the rights have separated, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as
provided by this Indenture (subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration termination or redemption of such rights). 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment need be made to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09 or 10.10
if Holders participate (as a result of holding Securities, and at the same time as Common Stock holders participate), subject to notice of such participation to Holders, in the transaction that would otherwise trigger the applicable adjustment, as
if such Holders held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the then applicable Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Securities held by such Holders, without having to convert. No adjustment need be
made if the Common Stock to be issued upon conversion will actually receive the consideration provided in, or be subject to, the transaction that would otherwise trigger the adjustment. 

No adjustment need be made for a change in the par value or no par value of the shares of Common Stock. 

Section 10.12 Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted, the Company shall promptly or within three Business
Days mail to Holders a notice of the adjustment. The Company shall file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent such notice briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computing it. The notice of adjustment shall be
conclusive evidence that the adjustment is correct. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such notice of adjustment except to exhibit the same to any Holder desiring inspection
thereof. 
 Section 10.13 Voluntary Increase. From time to time, the Company may (but is not required to) increase the
Conversion Rate, as permitted by law and the rules of the NASDAQ and any other securities exchange on which any of the Company’s securities are then listed, and if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the
Company’s best interest, by any amount at any time for at least 20 Business Days, so long as the increase is irrevocable during such period. In addition, the Company may also (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or
diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with any dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased, the Company
shall mail to Holders and file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice of the increase. The Company shall mail the notice at least 15 days before the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect. The notice shall state the increased
Conversion Rate and the period it will be in effect. A voluntary increase of the Conversion Rate does not change or adjust the Conversion Rate otherwise in effect for purposes of Section 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09 or 10.10. 

  
 56 








 Section 10.14 Notice of Certain Transactions. If: 

(a) the Company takes any action that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09
or 10.10 (unless no adjustment is to occur pursuant to Section 10.11); or 
 (b) the Company takes any action that would require a
supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 10.15; or 
 (c) there is a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, 

then the Company shall mail to Holders and file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent a notice stating the proposed record date for a dividend,
distribution or subdivision or the proposed effective date of a combination, reclassification, consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, transfer, liquidation or dissolution. The Company shall file and mail the notice at least 15 Scheduled
Trading Days before such date. Failure to file or mail the notice or any defect in it shall not affect the validity of the transaction. 

Section 10.15 Effect of Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. Upon the occurrence of (i) any
reclassification of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a change in par value, or from par value to no par value, or from no par value to par value, or as a result of a split, subdivision or combination covered by Section 10.06),
(ii) any transaction involving the Company subject to Section 5.01 (other than a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company in a transaction in which the holders of Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction do
not receive securities, cash or other assets of the Company or any other Person), (iii) a binding share exchange which reclassifies or changes the outstanding shares of Common Stock, or (iv) any sale or conveyance of all or substantially
all of the property and assets of the Company to any other Person, in each case as a result of which the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash, securities or other property or assets with respect to or in exchange for such Common
Stock (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then: 
 (a) the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may
be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture (which shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of execution of such supplemental indenture if such supplemental indenture is then required to so comply) and which
shall provide that Holders shall be entitled thereafter to convert their Securities into the type 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
shares of our Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property”) upon such Merger Event; provided that, at and after the
effective time of any such transaction, any amount otherwise payable in cash for fractional shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Securities will continue to be payable as described in Section 10.03. 

(b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 10.15, the Company shall promptly file with
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate briefly describing the Merger Event and stating the type or amount of cash, securities, property or other assets that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to


  
 57 








 
be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent to such Merger Event under this Indenture have been complied with. Promptly, following the effective time of any such Merger Event,
the Company shall notify all Holders of the Securities and make available on its website information describing the type or amount of cash, securities, property or other assets that will comprise the Reference Property after any such Merger Event.
Any failure to deliver such Officers’ Certificate or make such information available on the Company’s website shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental indenture. 

(c) With respect to each $1,000 principal amount of Securities surrendered for conversion after the effective date of any such Merger Event in
lieu of shares of Common Stock otherwise provided for hereunder, the Company shall deliver to the converting Holder a number of units of Reference Property (each such unit comprising the kind and amount of shares of stock, securities or other
property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive based on the Weighted Average Consideration) equal to
(1) the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be converted, divided by $1,000, multiplied by (2) the then-applicable Conversion Rate; 

(A) The Company will deliver the cash in lieu of fractional units of Reference Property as set forth pursuant to Section 10.03
(provided that the amount of such cash shall be determined as if references in such Section to “the Closing Sale Price of a full share of Common Stock” were instead a reference to “the fair market value of a unit of Reference
Property” composed of the type and amount of shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to such Merger Event would have owned
or been entitled to receive based on the Weighted Average Consideration). 
 (B) For purposes of this Section 10.15, the
“Weighted Average Consideration” means the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holder of the Common Stock entitled to receive cash, securities or other property or assets with respect to or in
exchange for such Common Stock in any Merger Event who affirmatively make such an election. 
 (C) The Company shall notify the Holders and
the Trustee of the Weighted Average Consideration as soon as practicable after the Weighted Average Consideration is determined. 
 (d) The
above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events. In the event that Securities become convertible into Reference Property pursuant to this Section 10.15, the Company shall notify the Trustee and issue a press
release containing the relevant information and make such press release available on the Company’s website. 
 Section 10.16
Company Determination Final. Any determination and/or calculation that the Company or the Board of Directors must make pursuant to Sections 10.03, 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09, 10.10, 10.11 or 10.15 shall be made in good faith and, absent
manifest error, shall be final and binding on the Holders of the Securities. 

  
 58 








 Section 10.17 Trustee’s Adjustment Disclaimer. The Trustee has no duty to
determine when an adjustment under this Article 10 should be made, how it should be made or what it should be. The Trustee shall not be accountable for and makes no representation as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon
conversion of Securities. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company’s failure to comply with this Article 10. Each Conversion Agent shall have the same protection under this Section 10.17 as the Trustee. 

Section 10.18 Simultaneous Adjustments. In the event that this Article 10 requires adjustments to the Conversion Rate under more
than one of Sections 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09 or 10.10, and the Ex-Dividend Dates (or, in the case of a Spin-off, the effective date of such a Spin-off) for the distributions giving rise to such adjustments shall occur on the same date, then such
adjustments shall be made by the Company or the Board of Directors in good faith manner. 
 Section 10.19 Successive
Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Article 10, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Article 10 shall cause an adjustment to the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. 

Section 10.20 Limitation on Adjustments. The Company shall not take any action that would result in an adjustment pursuant to the
foregoing provisions in this Article 10 if that adjustment would reduce the Conversion Price below the then par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities. In no event will the Conversion Rate be decreased other
than as a result of a transaction described in Section 10.06(c). 
 Section 10.21 Adjustment to Conversion Rate Upon Certain
Transactions. If, after the Issue Date, a Fundamental Change pursuant to Paragraphs (i), (ii) or (iv) of the definition of Fundamental Change set forth in Section 3.04, which, after giving effect to any exceptions or
exclusions from such definition set forth in Section 3.04(a) but with respect to any event described in Paragraph (ii) of the definition of Fundamental Change, shall be determined without regard to the exception provided by
Section 3.04(a)(ii)(B) (any such event, a “Make Whole Adjustment Event”), occurs, and if a Holder elects to convert its Securities in connection with such Make Whole Adjustment Event (any conversion during the period begging
with, and including, the Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date to, and including, the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or, if there is no Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the 35th Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date, as the same may be, will be deemed to be “in connection with” such Make Whole Adjustment Event),
the Company will increase the applicable Conversion Rate for the Securities surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as described in this Section 10.21. 

The Company shall mail Holders and the Trustee, not later than the Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date (as defined below) of such Make
Whole Adjustment Event, a notice describing the Make Whole Adjustment Event and the Holders’ rights to Additional Shares. The Company shall provide notice to Holders and the Trustee, and make such information available on its website as soon as
practicable after it first determines the anticipated Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date. 

  
 59 








 The number of Additional Shares will be determined by reference to the table below and is
based on the date on which such Make Whole Adjustment Event transaction occurs or becomes effective (the “Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date”) and the price paid per share of Common Stock in such Make Whole Adjustment Event
(the “Share Price”). If the holders of Common Stock receive only cash in the Make Whole Adjustment Event described in Section 3.04(a)(ii), the Share Price shall be the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock. Otherwise, the
Share Price shall be the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock on the ten consecutive Trading Days up to but excluding the Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date.  

The table below sets forth the Share Price paid per share for Common Stock in the Make Whole Adjustment Event and the number of Additional
Shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities by which the Conversion Rate will be increased. The Share Prices set forth in the Share Price column of the table will be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate is adjusted. The
adjusted Share Prices will equal the Share Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the applicable Conversion Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Share Price
adjustment and the denominator of which is the applicable Conversion Rate as so adjusted.

 If the exact Share Prices and Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Dates are not set forth in the table,
then: (i) if the Share Price is between two Share Price amounts in the table or the Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Date is between two dates in the table, the Additional Shares issued upon conversion of the Securities will be determined
by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Share Price amounts and the two Make Whole Adjustment Event Effective Dates in the table, based on a 365-day year; (ii) if the Share
Price exceeds $175.00 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth herein, no Additional Shares will be issued upon conversion of the Securities; and (iii) if the Share Price is less than $63.04 per share, subject to adjustment as set forth
herein, no Additional Shares will be issued upon conversion of the Securities. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the total
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion exceed 15.8629 shares for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities, subject to adjustments in the same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Article 10. 

The Company will settle conversions of Securities converted in connection with a Make Whole Adjustment Event as provided in
Section 10.01; provided, however that in connection with a Make Whole Adjustment Event in which holders of Common Stock receive only cash 

  
 60 








 
consideration for their shares of Common Stock (in a single per-share amount, other than with respect to appraisal and similar rights), the Company shall settle conversions by delivering, on the
tenth Business Day after the Conversion Date, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities, an amount of cash equal to (i) the applicable Conversion Rate on the Conversion Date, increased by Additional Shares, if any, calculated as set forth
in this Section 10.21, multiplied by (ii) the per-share amount of cash consideration paid in such Make Whole Adjustment Event. 

Section 10.22 Exchange-Related Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Securities or in this Indenture, in
connection with limitations imposed by the continued listing standards of the NASDAQ, in the event of an increase in the Conversion Rate that would result in the Securities, in the aggregate, becoming convertible into shares of Common Stock in
excess of 20% of Common Stock outstanding as of the Issue Date, the Company, at its election, shall either (i) obtain shareholder approval of such issuances, in accordance with the shareholder approval rules contained in such listing standards,
or (ii) pay cash in lieu of delivering any shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon conversion in excess of such limitations based on the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date (or, if the Conversion Date is not
a Trading Day, the next following Trading Day) in respect of which, in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock, the Company is paying cash pursuant to this Section 10.22. If the Company pays cash in lieu of delivering shares of Common Stock
pursuant to this Section 10.22, it will notify the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Holders of the maximum number of shares it will deliver per $1,000 principal amount of converted Security in respect of the relevant conversion. 

Section 10.23 Exchange in Lieu of Conversion. When a Holder surrenders Securities for conversion, the Company may, at its
election, direct the Conversion Agent to surrender, on or prior to the second Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date, such Securities to a financial institution designated by the Company for exchange in lieu of conversion. In order
to accept any Securities surrendered for conversion, the designated financial institution must agree to timely deliver, in exchange for such Securities, the shares of Common Stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares that the Company would be
obligated to deliver upon the conversion of such Securities (the “Conversion Consideration”) at the time the Company would otherwise be required to deliver such consideration. By the Close of Business on the second Business Day
immediately following the Conversion Date, the Company will notify the Holder surrendering Security for conversion, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent that it has made an exchange election, and the Company will notify the designated financial
institution of the relevant deadline for delivery of the Conversion Consideration. A copy of such notice shall include wire instructions and delivery instructions and shall be delivered to the Conversion Agent and to the designated institution. 

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not make an exchange election unless the Company concludes, based on a advice of counsel,
that any Securities exchanged by the designated institution, and any Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof, shall: (1) if such exchange takes place prior to the date that is one year after the last Issue Date of the Initial Securities,
be eligible for resale under Rule 144 at the same time as the Securities exchanged by the designated institution or any Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof would have been eligible for resale had such conversion and exchange not occurred,
and (2) if such exchange 

  
 61 








 
takes place after the date that is one year after the last Issue Date of the Initial Securities, be Freely Tradable, without restrictions, by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates. If
the Company reaches such a conclusion, the Company agrees not to impose any additional restrictions on such Securities or Common Stock. 

(b) Securities exchanged by the designated institution will remain outstanding. If the designated institution agrees to accept any Securities
for exchange in lieu of conversion but does not timely deliver the related Conversion Consideration, or if such designated institution does not accept the Securities for exchange, the Company will deliver the relevant consideration to the Holder on
the applicable settlement date therefor as if the Company had not made an exchange in lieu of conversion election. 
 (c) The Company’s
designation of a financial institution to which the Securities may be submitted for exchange does not require the financial institution to accept any Securities. The Company will not pay any consideration to, and the Company may, but will not be
obligated to, otherwise enter into any agreement with, the designated institution for or with respect to such designation.

 PAYMENT OF INTEREST 

Section 11.01 Payment of Interest. 

(a) The Company shall pay interest on the Securities at a rate of 1.625% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and
November 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day, commencing May 1, 2015. Interest on a Security shall be paid to the Holder of
such Security at the Close of Business on April 15 or October 15 (each, a “Record Date”), as the case may be, next preceding the related Interest Payment Date, and shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised
of twelve 30-day months. In the event of the maturity, conversion, or purchase of a Security by the Company at the option of the Holder, interest shall cease to accrue on such Security. 

(b) Upon conversion of a Security, (i) a Holder shall not receive any cash payment of interest (unless such conversion occurs between a
Record Date and the Interest Payment Date to which it relates, in which case a Holder on the Record Date will receive on the Interest Payment Date accrued and unpaid interest) and the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted to account for accrued and
unpaid interest and (ii) except as set forth in clause (c) below, the Company’s delivery to a holder of shares of Common Stock into which the Security is convertible shall be deemed to satisfy its obligation with respect to such
Security, and any accrued but unpaid interest shall be deemed to be paid in full upon conversion, rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. 

(c) Securities surrendered for conversion by a Holder after the Close of Business on any Record Date but prior to the next Interest Payment
Date, must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest that the Holder is to receive on the next Interest Payment Date 

  
 62 








 
for the Securities; provided, however, that no such payment need be made (1) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Record Date and
on or prior to the next Interest Payment Date; (2) to the extent of overdue interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Securities; or (3) if the Securities are surrendered for conversion after
the Close of Business on the Record Date for the payment of interest on the Securities at the Maturity Date. 
 Section 11.02
Defaulted Interest. Any installment of interest that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders in whose names the Securities were registered on
the Record Date applicable to such installment of interest. Any overdue installments of interest, and interest on any Defaulted Amounts (together, the “Defaulted Interest”) (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest), may be
paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in this Section 11.02 (a) or (b). 
 (a) The Company may elect to make payment
of any Defaulted Interest (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest) to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the Close of Business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
(a “Special Record Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid and the date of the proposed payment, and at the
same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date
of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this Section 11.02(a). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 calendar days and not less than ten calendar days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than ten calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the
proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
therefor to be sent, first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears in the registration books of the Registrar, not less than ten calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed
payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Holders in whose names the Securities are registered at the Close of Business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to Section 11.02(b). 
 (b) Alternatively, the Company may make payment of any
Defaulted Interest (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest) in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by
such exchange if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Section 11.02(b), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

Section 11.03 Interest Rights Preserved. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Article 11 and Section 2.08, each
Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 

  
 63 








 Section 11.04 Overdue Principal and Interest. The Company shall (A) pay interest
on overdue principal on any Securities (including, without limitation, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and (B) to the extent lawful, pay interest on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable
grace periods) (any such overdue principal and interest, “Defaulted Amounts”). Interest shall accrue on any Defaulted Amounts at the rate of interest borne by the Securities, plus one percent from, and including, the relevant
payment date to, but excluding, the date on which such Defaulted Amounts shall have been paid by the Company. Such interest on Defaulted Amounts shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months and, in the case of a
partial month, the actual number of days elapsed.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 
 1.
Interest 
 This Security shall bear cash interest at the rate of 1.625% per annum. Interest on this Security shall accrue from
September 30, 2014 (the “Issue Date”) or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for. Interest shall be payable semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on
May 1, 2015, to the holder of record of Securities at the Close of Business on the April 15 or October 15 immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (or repurchase or Maturity Date, as applicable). Each payment of cash interest
on this Security shall include interest accrued for the period commencing on and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (or, if none, the Issue Date) through the day before the applicable Interest Payment Date, Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date or Maturity Date, as applicable. Any payment required to be made on any day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no interest or other amount will be paid as a result of any such
postponement. Interest shall be calculated using a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months. Interest shall cease to accrue on this Security upon its Maturity Date, conversion or repurchase by the Company, including a repurchase at the option
of the Holder upon a Fundamental Change in accordance with Paragraph 6 hereof.  
 Interest on Securities converted after a Record
Date, but prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, will be paid to the Holder of the Securities on the Record Date, but upon such conversion, the Holder must pay the Company the interest which has accrued and will be paid by the Company on
such Interest Payment Date. No such payment need be made (1) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Record Date and on or prior to the next Interest Payment Date; (2) to the extent of overdue
interest, if any overdue interest exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Securities; or (3) if such Securities are surrendered for conversion after the Close of Business on the Record Date for the payment of interest on the
Securities at the Maturity Date. 
 2. Method of Payment. 

The Company shall promptly make all payments in respect of the Securities on the dates and in the manner provided herein and in the Indenture.
The Company will pay interest (except Defaulted Interest) on the principal amount of the Securities on each May 1 and November 1 to the Persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the Close of Business on the April 15 and
October 15 next preceding the Interest Payment Date even if Securities are canceled or repurchased after such Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal
payments. The Company will pay principal, accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, and any payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or premium in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make all payments in respect of a Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account specified by such Holder. The Company will make all payments in 

  
 A-5 








 
respect of a Certificated Security (including principal and interest) in U.S. dollars at the office of the Trustee. At the Company’s option, the Company may make such payments by mailing a
check to the registered address of each Holder thereof as such address shall appear on the register or, if requested by a Holder of more than $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
the account specified by such Holder. If an Interest Payment Date is a date other than a Business Day, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. 

3. Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, will act as Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar. The Company may
appoint and change any Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar without notice, other than notice to the Trustee; provided that the Company will maintain at least one Paying Agent in the United States of America, which shall initially be
an office or agency of the Trustee. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their affiliates may act as Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or Registrar.  

4. Indenture. 
 The Company issued the
Securities under an Indenture dated as of September 30, 2014 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by
reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as in effect from time to time (the “TIA”). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all
such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of those terms.  
 The Securities are general senior unsecured
obligations of the Company. The Indenture does not limit other indebtedness of the Company, secured or unsecured. 
 5. [Reserved.] 

6. Purchase By the Company at the Option of the Holder upon a Fundamental Change. 

(a) At the option of the Holder, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, if a Fundamental Change occurs, each Holder of
Securities will have the right, at its option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of its Securities, or any portion of the principal amount thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, at a Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Securities to be repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest), if any, to (but excluding) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date. To exercise the repurchase
right, the Holder must deliver, on or before the Close of Business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, written notice to the Trustee of such Holder’s exercise of its repurchase right,
together with the Securities with respect to which the right is being exercised. Subject to such Holder’s satisfaction of certain requirements in the Indenture, the Company is required to repurchase the Securities on the date that is no fewer
than 20 Business Days and no more than 45 Business Days after the date of the Fundamental Change Notice delivered by the Company. 

  
 A-6 








 (b) Holders have the right to withdraw any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice delivered
pursuant to Paragraph 6(a) above by delivering to the Paying Agent a written notice of withdrawal in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture at any time prior to the Close of Business on the last day prior to the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date. If cash sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of all Securities or portions thereof to be repurchased as of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date is deposited with the Paying Agent on the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date, interest will cease to accrue on such Securities (or portions thereof) immediately after such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, and the Holder thereof shall have no other rights as such other than the right to receive the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price upon surrender of such Security. 
 7. Conversion. 

(a) Holders may surrender Securities, in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount, for conversion into shares of Common Stock until the
second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. 
 (b) The initial Conversion Rate is 11.9720 shares of Common
Stock per $1,000 principal amount, subject to adjustment in certain events described in the Indenture. Upon conversion, a Holder will receive, for each $1,000 principal amount of Securities surrendered, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to
(i) $1,000 multiplied by (ii) the applicable Conversion Rate in effect on the relevant Conversion Date; provided, however, that for any conversion that occurs on or after the record date for the payment of interest on the
Securities at maturity, the Company will deliver such shares on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not deliver any fractional shares upon conversion; instead, Holders will receive cash in lieu of fractional shares
based on the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Conversion Date (or, if the Conversion Date is not a Trading Day, the next following Trading Day).  

(c) To surrender a Security for conversion, a Holder must (1) complete and manually sign the irrevocable conversion notice below (or
complete and manually sign a facsimile of such notice) and deliver such notice to the Conversion Agent; (2) surrender the Security to the Conversion Agent; (3) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and (4) pay any
transfer or similar tax, if required. 
 (d) A Holder may convert a portion of a Security if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000. No payment or adjustment will be made for dividends on the shares of Common Stock, except as provided in the Indenture. Except as provided in Paragraph 1 hereof, on conversion of a Security, the Holder will not
receive any cash payment representing accrued and unpaid interest with respect to the converted Securities. Instead, upon conversion the Company will deliver to the Holder shares of Common Stock and any cash payment to account for fractional shares.
Accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. The Company will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for accrued and unpaid interest. 

  
 A-7 








 8. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Securities are in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 of principal amount and integral multiples of $1,000.
A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or
permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Securities in respect of which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been given and not withdrawn (except, in the case of a Security to be repurchased in part, the
portion of the Security not to be repurchased). 
 9. Persons Deemed Owners. 

The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of this Security for all purposes. 

10. Unclaimed Money or Securities. 
 The Trustee
and the Paying Agent shall return to the Company upon written request any money or securities held by them for the payment of any amount with respect to the Securities that remains unclaimed for two years, subject to applicable unclaimed property
law. After return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money or securities must look to the Company for payment as general creditors, unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person. 

11. Trustee Dealings with the Company. 
 Subject
to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its
affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
 12. Calculations in
Respect of Securities. 
 The Company will be responsible for making all calculations called for under the Securities. These calculations
include, but are not limited to, determinations of the market prices of the Securities and the Common Stock, any accrued interest payable on the Securities, the Conversion Rate and the Conversion Price of the Securities and any adjustments thereto.

 The Company will make these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, the calculations will be final and binding on Holders
of the Securities. The Company will provide to the Trustee a schedule of its calculations, and the Trustee and each agent is entitled to rely upon the accuracy of such calculations without independent verification. The Trustee will forward the
Company’s calculations to any Holder of the Securities upon the written request of such Holder. 
 Neither the Trustee nor any Agent
shall have responsibility with respect to the conversion terms of the Securities, and whether any adjustments thereto are required.

Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the
consideration for the issue of the Securities.

WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY.
