 THE
SECURITIES 
 Section 2.01. Title; Amount and Issue of Securities; Principal and Interest. (a) The Securities
shall be known and designated as the “3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026” of the Company. The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is initially limited to $175,000,000,
except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Securities pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.04, 2.08, 2.09, 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 6.07, 10.05, 11.03, or 12.01; provided
that additional Securities may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount from time to time thereafter as set forth pursuant to Section 2.04, but only if such additional Securities to be issued are part of the same issue as the
Securities initially issued and sold pursuant to the Offering Memorandum for United States federal income tax purposes. The Securities shall be issuable in denominations of $1,000 or multiples thereof. 
 (b) The Securities shall mature on December 1, 2026 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased in accordance with the provisions hereof.

 (c) Interest on the Securities shall accrue from and including the date specified on the face of such Securities until the principal
thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest shall be payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing June 1, 2007. For purposes of this Indenture and the Securities, unless the context
clearly requires otherwise, references to “interest” shall include Additional Interest and Contingent Interest. 
 (d) A Holder of
any Security at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Regular Record Date shall be entitled to receive interest (including Contingent 

  

 11 

 
Interest and Additional Interest, if any), on such Security on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, notwithstanding the conversion of such Securities at
any time after the close of business on such Regular Record Date. Securities surrendered for conversion during the period from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Regular Record Date to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the corresponding Interest
Payment Date must be accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) payable on such Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such payment of interest (including
Contingent Interest and Additional Interest) need be made by any converting Holder (i) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, (ii) if
the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Purchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, or (iii) to the extent of any overdue interest (including Contingent Interest and
Additional Interest, if any) existing at the time of conversion of such Security. Except as described above, no interest, Contingent Interest or Additional Interest, if any, on converted Securities will be payable by the Company on any Interest
Payment Date subsequent to the date of conversion, and delivery of shares of Common Stock or the combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, if applicable, pursuant to Article 12 hereunder, together with any cash payment for any fractional
share, upon conversion will be deemed to satisfy in full the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of the Securities and accrued and unpaid interest and Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any, to, but not including, the
related Conversion Date. 
 (e) Principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any,
on, Global Securities shall be payable to DTC in immediately available funds. 
 (f) Principal of, and any premium on, Definitive Securities
shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which initially shall be the corporate trust office of the Trustee. Interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any), on Definitive
Securities will be payable (i) to Holders having an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check mailed to the Holders of these Securities and (ii) to Holders having an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000,
either by check mailed to each Holder or, upon application by a Holder to the Registrar not later than the relevant Regular Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to such Holder’s account within the United States, which
application shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Registrar to the contrary. 
  

 12 

 Section 2.02. Form of Securities. 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided pursuant to this Section 2.02, the Securities are issuable in fully registered form without coupons in substantially
the form of Exhibit A hereto, with such applicable legends as are provided for in Section 2.03. The Securities are not issuable in bearer form. The terms and provisions contained in the form of Security shall constitute, and are hereby
expressly made, a part of this Indenture and to the extent applicable, the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of this Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby. Any of the Securities may
have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends and endorsements as the officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and as are not inconsistent with
the provisions of this Indenture, or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Securities may
be listed or designated for issuance, or to conform to usage. 
 (b) The Securities shall be issued initially in the form of one or more
permanent Global Securities, with the applicable legends as provided in Section 2.03. Each Global Security shall be duly executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, and shall be registered in the name of DTC or its
nominee and retained by the Trustee, as Securities Custodian, at its corporate trust office, for credit to the accounts of the Agent Members holding the Securities evidenced thereby. 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, as Securities Custodian, and of DTC or its nominee, as hereinafter provided. 
 Section 2.03. Legends. Each Security issued hereunder shall, upon issuance, bear the legend set forth in Section 2.03(i), and each Common Stock certificate representing shares of the Common Stock
issued upon conversion of any Security issued hereunder, shall, upon issuance, unless as otherwise set forth below, bear the legend set forth in Section 2.03(ii) (each such legend, a “Restricted Securities Legend”), and such
legend shall not be removed except as provided in Section 2.03(iii). Each Security that bears or is required to bear the Restricted Securities Legend set forth in Section 2.03(i) (together with each Common Stock certificate representing
shares of the Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Security that bears or is required to bear the Restricted Securities Legend set forth in Section 2.03(ii), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to
the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.03 (including the Restricted Securities Legend set forth below), and the Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed
to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. 
  

 13 

 As used in Section 2.03, the term “transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or
other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security. 
 (i) Restricted Securities Legend for Securities. Except as
provided in Section 2.03(iii), any certificate evidencing such Security (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than stock certificates representing shares of the Common Stock, if any, issued upon
conversion thereof which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.03(ii), if applicable) shall bear a Restricted Securities Legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY,
MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER AGREES (1) THAT IT WILL NOT RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY OR THE COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION
OF SUCH SECURITY, EXCEPT (A) TO THE COMPANY; (B) UNDER A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; (C) ONLY IN THE CASE OF THIS SECURITY TO A PERSON THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED
INSTITUTIONAL BUYER (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A ADOPTED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) THAT IS PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF ANOTHER QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER AND TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE
ON RULE 144A, ALL IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A (IF AVAILABLE); OR (D) UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT; AND (2) IT WILL, PRIOR TO ANY TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY FURNISH TO THE
TRUSTEE AND THE ISSUER SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS MAY BE REQUIRED PURSUANT TO THE INDENTURE TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.” 
 (ii) Restricted Securities Legend for the Common Stock Issued
Upon Conversion of the Securities. Each stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities bearing a Restricted Securities Legend will, subject to the availability of a Shelf Registration Statement and registration
thereunder as set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement, bear the following legend: 
 “THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER
THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT AS SET 

  

 14 

 
FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER AGREES (1) THAT IT WILL NOT RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THE SECURITY EVIDENCED
HEREBY, EXCEPT (A) TO THE COMPANY; (B) UNDER A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; OR (C) UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT; AND
(2) IT WILL, PRIOR TO ANY TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY FURNISH TO THE TRANSFER AGENT AND THE ISSUER SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS MAY BE REQUIRED TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION
FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.” 
 (iii) Removal of
the Restricted Securities Legends. The Restricted Securities Legend may be removed from any Security or any Common Stock certificate representing shares of the Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Security if there is delivered to the
Company such satisfactory evidence, which may include an opinion of independent counsel, as may be reasonably required by the Company, that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers
of such Security or shares of the Common Stock issued upon conversion of Securities, as the case may be, will not violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act or the qualification requirements under any state securities laws. Upon
provision of such satisfactory evidence, at the written direction of the Company, (x) in the case of a Security, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Security another Security or Securities having an equal aggregate
principal amount that do not bear such legend or (y) in the case of a Common Stock certificate representing shares of the Common Stock, the transfer agent for the Common Stock shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for the Common Stock
certificate or certificates representing such shares of Common Stock bearing such legend, one or more new Common Stock certificates representing a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that do not bear such legend. If the Restricted
Securities Legend has been removed from a Security or Common Stock certificates representing shares of the Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Security as provided above, no other Security issued in exchange for all or any part of such
Security, or no other Common Stock 

  

 15 

 
certificates issued in exchange for such Common Stock, shall bear such legend, unless the Company has reasonable cause to believe that such other Security is
a “restricted security” (or such shares of Common Stock are “restricted securities”) within the meaning of Rule 144 and instructs the Trustee in writing to cause a Restricted Securities Legend to appear thereon. 
 Any Security (or Security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) as to which the conditions for removal of the Restricted Securities Legend set
forth in Section 2.03(i) as set forth therein have been satisfied may, upon surrender of such Security for exchange to the Registrar in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.08, be exchanged for a new Security or Securities, of like
tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the Restricted Securities Legend required by Section 2.03(i). 
 Any Common
Stock certificate representing shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of any Security as to which the conditions for removal of the Restricted Securities Legend set forth in Section 2.03(ii) have been satisfied may, upon surrender of the
Common Stock certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new Common Stock certificate or certificates representing a like
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear the Restricted Securities Legend. 
 (iv) Global Security
Legend. Each Global Security shall also bear the following legend (the “Global Security Legend”) on the face thereof: 
 “UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), NEW YORK, NEW YORK, TO THE COMPANY OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR
PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED
BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN. 
 TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, TO NOMINEES OF DTC OR TO A SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH
SUCCESSOR’S NOMINEE 

  

 16 

 
AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE REFERRED
TO IN THE TERMS OF SECURITIES ATTACHED HERETO.” 
 (v) Legend for Definitive Securities. Definitive Securities, in
addition to the legend set forth in Section 2.03(i), will also bear a legend substantially in the following form: 
 “THIS SECURITY
WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED IN EXCHANGE FOR A BENEFICIAL INTEREST IN A GLOBAL SECURITY UNLESS THE HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY, SUBSEQUENT TO SUCH EXCHANGE, WILL HOLD NO SECURITIES.” 
 Section 2.04. Execution and Authentication. One Officer shall sign the Securities for the Company by manual or facsimile signature. 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. 
 A Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually authenticates the Security. The signature of the Trustee on a Security shall be conclusive evidence that such Security has been duly
and validly authenticated and issued under this Indenture. A Security shall be dated the date of its authentication. 
 At any time and from
time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company in an unlimited aggregate principal amount to the Trustee for authentication, together with a written order of the Company
signed by two Officers or by an Officer and an Assistant Secretary of the Company (the “Company Order”) for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate
and deliver such Securities as in this Indenture provided and not otherwise. All Securities issued on the Issue Date shall be identical in all respects with any such Securities authenticated and delivered thereafter, other than issue dates, the date
from which interest accrues, appropriate CUSIP numbers or other identifying notations and any changes relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, subject to Section 2.12, all Securities issued under
this Indenture shall vote and consent together on all matters as one class and no series of Securities will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter. 
 The Trustee may appoint an agent (the “Authenticating Agent”) reasonably acceptable to the Company to authenticate the Securities.
Initially, the Trustee will act as the Authenticating Agent. Any such instrument shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Trust Officer of the Trustee, a copy of 

  

 17 

 
which shall be furnished to the Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, any such Authenticating Agent may authenticate Securities whenever
the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by the Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices
and demands. 
 In case the Company, pursuant to Article 4, shall be consolidated or merged with or into, or shall convey, transfer or lease
all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, any Person, and the Successor Company, if not the Company, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article 4, any of the Securities authenticated or
delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer or lease may, from time to time, at the request of the Successor Company, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the Successor Company with such changes in
phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Company Order of the Successor Company, shall authenticate and
deliver Securities as specified in such order for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a Successor Company pursuant to this Section 2.04 in exchange or substitution for
or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such Successor Company, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time outstanding for Securities authenticated and delivered
in such new name. 
 Section 2.05. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall maintain an office or agency where Securities
may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Registrar shall keep a register of the
Securities and of their transfer and exchange (the “Securities Register”). The Company may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying
agent and the term “Registrar” includes any co-registrar. 
 The Company shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any
Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture, which shall incorporate the terms of the TIA. 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 each such agent. If the Company fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant to Section 8.07. The Company or any of its domestically
organized, wholly owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or transfer agent. 
  

 18 

 The Company initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent for the Securities. The Company
may remove any Registrar or Paying Agent upon written notice to such Registrar or Paying Agent and to the Trustee; provided, however, that no such removal shall become effective until (i) acceptance of any appointment by a successor as
evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Company and such successor Registrar or successor Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (ii) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as
Registrar or Paying Agent until the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (i) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice to the Company and the Trustee. 
 Section 2.06. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. By no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date on which any principal of,
interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any, on any Security is due and payable, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient in immediately available funds to pay such principal,
interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any, when due. The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that such Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the
benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by such Paying Agent for the payment of principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on the Securities and shall notify the Trustee in
writing of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require
a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.06, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company or a Subsidiary)
shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. Upon any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding with respect to the Company, the Trustee shall serve as Paying Agent for the Securities. 
 Section 2.07. 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 and shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). If the Trustee is not the Registrar, or to the extent otherwise required under the TIA, the Company shall furnish or cause the Registrar to 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 and the Company shall otherwise comply with TIA § 312(a). 
  

 19 

 Section 2.08. General Provisions Relating to Transfer and Exchange. The Securities are
issuable only in registered form. A Holder may transfer a Security only by written application to the Registrar stating the name of the proposed transferee and otherwise complying with the terms of this Indenture. No such transfer shall be effected
until, and such transferee shall succeed to the rights of a Holder only upon, final acceptance and registration of the transfer by the Registrar in the Securities Register. Furthermore, any Holder of a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such
Global Security, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Security may be effected only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Security (or its agent) and that ownership of a beneficial interest in the
Global Security shall be required to be reflected in a book-entry. 
 When Securities are presented to the Registrar with a request to
register the transfer or to exchange them for an equal aggregate principal amount of Securities of other authorized denominations, the Registrar shall register the transfer or make the exchange as requested if its requirements for such transactions
are met (including that such Securities are duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the Holder thereof or by an attorney who is authorized in writing to act on behalf of the Holder). Subject to
Section 2.04, to permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar’s request. No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange or redemption of the Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or permitted under the terms of this Indenture. 
 Neither the Company nor the Registrar shall be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Securities: 
 (a) selected for redemption under Article 6 or, if a portion of any Security is selected for redemption, the portion thereof selected for redemption;

 (b) surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any Security is surrendered for conversion, the portion thereof surrendered for
conversion; or 
 (c) in certificated form for a period of 15 days prior to mailing a notice of redemption under Article 6. 
 The Trustee shall have no 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 beneficial owners of any Global Security) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other 

  

 20 

 
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. 
 Section 2.09. Book-Entry Provisions for the
Global Securities. (a) The Global Securities initially shall: 
 (i) be registered in the name of DTC (or a nominee
thereof); 
 (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as Securities Custodian; 
 (iii) bear the Restricted Securities Legend set forth in Section 2.03(i); and 
 (iv) bear the Global Security Legend set forth in Section 2.03(iv). 
 Members of, or participants in, DTC (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held
on their behalf by DTC, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under such Global Security, and DTC may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes
whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company, or Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by DTC or
impair, as between DTC and the Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Security. 
 (b) The 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 which a Holder is
entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities. 
 (c) A Global Security may not be transferred, in whole or in part, to any Person
other than DTC (or a nominee thereof) or to a successor thereof (or such successor’s nominee), and no such transfer to any such other Person may be registered. Beneficial interests in a Global Security may be transferred in accordance with the
rules and procedures of DTC and the provisions of Section 2.10. 
 (d) If at any time: 
 (i) DTC notifies the Company in writing that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depositary for the Global Securities and a
successor depositary for the Global Securities is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice; 
  

 21 

 (ii) DTC ceases to be registered as a “clearing agency” under the Exchange Act
and a successor depositary for the Global Securities is not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such cessation; 
 (iii) the Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of the Definitive Securities under this Indenture in exchange for all or any part of the Securities represented by a Global Security or
Global Securities, subject to the procedures of DTC; or 
 (iv) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Registrar has received a request from DTC for the issuance of Definitive Securities in exchange for such Global Security or Global Securities; 
 the
Securities Custodian shall surrender such Global Security or Global Securities to the Trustee for cancellation and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of Securities, shall authenticate and deliver in exchange for such Global Security or Global Securities, Definitive Securities in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Security or Global
Securities. Such Definitive Securities shall be registered in such names as DTC (or any nominee thereof) shall identify in writing as the beneficial owners of the Securities represented by such Global Security or Global Securities. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with any transfer of beneficial interests in a Global Security to the beneficial owners thereof pursuant
to Section 2.09(d), the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the principal amount of such Global Security in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial interests in such Global Security to
be transferred. 
 Section 2.10. Special Transfer Provisions. Unless a Security is no longer a Restricted Security, the following
provisions shall apply to any sale, pledge or other transfer of such Securities: 
 (a) Transfer of Securities to a QIB. The following
provisions shall apply with respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of Securities to a QIB: 
 (i) If the
Securities to be transferred consist of a beneficial interest in the Global Securities, the transfer of such interest may be effected only through the book-entry systems maintained by DTC. 
  

 22 

 (ii) If the Securities to be transferred consist of Definitive Securities, the Registrar
shall register the transfer if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked the box provided for on the form of Security stating (or has otherwise advised the Company and the Registrar in writing) that the sale has been made
in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed a certification stating or has otherwise advised the Company and the Registrar in writing that: 
 (A) it is purchasing the Securities for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment discretion;

 (B) it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A; 
 (C) it is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A; 
 (D) it acknowledges that it has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested pursuant to Rule 144A or has
determined not to request such information; and 
 (E) it is aware that the transferor is relying upon its foregoing
representations in order to claim the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A. 
 (b) General. By its acceptance of any
Security bearing the Restricted Securities Legend, each Holder of such a Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Security set forth in this Indenture and agrees that it will transfer such Security only as provided in this
Indenture. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Security unless such transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Security set forth in this Indenture. The Registrar shall be entitled to receive and rely on written
instructions from the Company verifying that such transfer complies with such restrictions on transfer. In connection with any transfer of Securities, each Holder agrees by its acceptance of the Securities to furnish the Registrar or the Company
such certifications, legal opinions or other information as either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the
Securities Act; provided that the Registrar shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a determination made by the Company with respect to) the sufficiency of any such certifications, legal opinions or other information. 

 

 23 

 The Registrar shall retain copies of all certifications, letters, notices and other written
communications received pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof or this Section 2.10. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving
of reasonable written notice to the Registrar. 
 Section 2.11. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Wrongfully Taken Securities. If a
mutilated Security is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security if the
requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, such that the Holder (a) notifies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Registrar has not
registered a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company or Trustee prior to the Security being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the UCC and (c) satisfies any
other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. 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 and the Registrar from any loss which any of
them may suffer if a Security is replaced, and, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and
make available for delivery, in exchange for any such mutilated Security or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Security has become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may,
instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 2.11, the Company may
require the payment by the Holder 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) in connection therewith. 

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 2.11 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken 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 wrongfully taken Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to
all benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder. 
  

 24 

 The provisions of this Section 2.11 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all
other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or wrongfully taken Securities. 
 Section 2.12. 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 2.12 as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding in the event the Company or an Affiliate of the Company holds the Security; provided, however, that (i) for purposes of determining which Securities are
outstanding for consent or voting purposes hereunder, the provisions of Section 14.06 shall apply and (ii) in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making a determination whether the Holders of the requisite principal
amount of outstanding Securities are present at a meeting of Holders of Securities for quorum purposes or have consented to or voted in favor of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, amendment or modification
hereunder, or relying upon any such quorum, consent or vote, only Securities which a Trust Officer of the Trustee actually knows to be held by the Company or an Affiliate of the Company shall not be considered outstanding. 
 If a Security is replaced or paid pursuant to Section 2.11, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Company receive proof
satisfactory to them that the replaced Security is held by a protected purchaser. 
 If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in
accordance with this Indenture, on a Redemption Date or at Stated Maturity, money sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest payable on that date with respect to the Securities (or portions thereof) to be redeemed or maturing, as
the case may be, then on and after that date such Securities (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on them ceases to accrue. 
 Section 2.13. Temporary Securities. In the event that Definitive Securities are to be issued under the terms of this Indenture, until such
Definitive Securities are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and upon receipt of a Company Order 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 upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Securities. After the preparation of
Definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge
to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall execute, and the 

  

 25 

 
Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Securities representing an equal principal amount of
Securities. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of Definitive Securities. 
 Section 2.14. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar, the Conversion
Agent and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange, conversion or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel all Securities surrendered for registration of
transfer, exchange, conversion, payment or cancellation and dispose of such Securities in accordance with its internal policies and customary procedures including delivery of a certificate describing such Securities disposed of (subject to the
record retention requirements of the Exchange Act). The Company may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid for or converted or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in connection with a transfer or
exchange. 
 At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Security have either been exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred,
redeemed, repurchased, converted or canceled, such Global Security shall be returned by the Securities Custodian to the Trustee for cancellation or retained and canceled by the Trustee. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial
interest in a Global Security is exchanged for Definitive Securities, transferred in exchange for an interest in another Global Security, redeemed, repurchased, converted or canceled, the principal amount of Securities represented by such Global
Security shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Securities Custodian for such Global Security) with respect to such Global Security, by the Trustee or the Securities Custodian, to
reflect such reduction. 
 Section 2.15. Payment of Interest; Defaulted Interest. Interest (including Contingent Interest and
Additional Interest, if any) on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more predecessor Securities) is registered at
the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such payment at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 2.05. The Company shall pay interest upon any overdue principal and (to the extent that
payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) upon the overdue installments of accrued and unpaid interest at the rate borne by the Securities from the required payment date. 
 Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not paid when the same becomes due and payable and such nonpayment continues for a period of 30

  

 26 

 
days, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date, and such interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such interest at
the rate borne by the Securities (such interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the Company at its election, in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below:

 (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective
predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date (as defined below) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, 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 on each Security and the date (not less than 30 days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Interest Payment Date”), 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 Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment
of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than 10 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 and Special Interest Payment Date therefor
to be given in the manner provided for in Section 14.02, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor
having been so given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid on the Special Interest Payment Date to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record
Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 
 (b) The Company may make payment of any 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 is given by the Company to the Trustee of the
proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.15, 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 (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security. 
  

 27 

 Section 2.16. Computation of Interest. Interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
 Section 2.17. CUSIP
and ISIN Numbers. The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers in notices of redemption
as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that 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 of redemption and that
reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such CUSIP or ISIN numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in
writing of any change in the CUSIP and ISIN numbers. 
 Section 2.18. Calculation Of Original Issue Discount. The Company agrees,
and by acceptance of a Certificated Security or a beneficial ownership interest in a Global Security each Holder and each beneficial owner of the Securities shall be deemed to have agreed, for United States federal income tax purposes, (1) to
treat the Securities as indebtedness that is subject to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4 (the “Contingent Payment Debt Regulations”) and, for purposes of the Contingent Payment Debt Regulations, to treat the cash and the
fair market value of any stock beneficially received upon any conversion of the Securities as a contingent payment, (2) to accrue interest with respect to the Securities as original issue discount on a constant yield basis, according to the
“noncontingent bond method” set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4(b), using the comparable yield of 8.5% per annum compounded semi-annually and (3) in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial
ruling to the contrary, to be bound by the Company’s determination of the “comparable yield” and “projected payment schedule,” within the meaning of the Contingent Payment Debt Regulations, with respect to the Securities. A
Holder may obtain the issue price, the amount of original issue discount, the issue date, the yield to maturity, the comparable yield and the projected payment schedule for the Securities by submitting a written request for such information to the
Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, 808 Travis Street, Suite 1320, Houston, Texas 77002, Attention: Chief Financial Officer. 
 The Company
acknowledges and agrees, and each Holder and any beneficial owner of a Security by its purchase thereof shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree, that (i) the comparable yield and the schedule of projected payments are not determined for any
purpose other than for the determination of interest accruals and adjustments thereof in respect of the 

  

 28 

 
Securities for United States federal income tax purposes and (ii) the comparable yield and the schedule of projected payments do not constitute a
projection or representation regarding the amounts payable on the Securities. 
 ARTICLE 3 
 COVENANTS 
 Section 3.01. Payment of Securities. The Company shall promptly pay the principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any, on the Securities on the dates and in the manner
provided in the Securities and in this Indenture. Principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any, shall be considered paid on the date due if by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date
the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture immediately available funds sufficient to pay all principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any, then due. 

The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal or premium, if any, at the rate specified therefor in the Securities, and it shall pay interest on
overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Indenture, the Company may, to the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America from principal, premium or interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) payments hereunder. 
 Section 3.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain an office or
agency where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where, if applicable, the Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or agency. 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 to the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations,
surrenders, notices and demands. 
 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 any such designation. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the
location of any such other office or agency. 
  

 29 

 Section 3.03. Corporate Existence. Except as otherwise provided in Article 4, the Company
will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its existence and (ii) the material rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the Company, except, in the case of
clause (ii), to the extent the Company otherwise reasonably determines it no longer desirable. 
 Section 3.04. Payment of Taxes
and Other Claims. The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any
Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary and (ii) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a material liability or lien upon the property of the
Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in
good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves, if necessary (in the good faith judgment of management of the Company), are being maintained in accordance with GAAP or where the failure to effect such payment will not be
disadvantageous to the Holders. 
 Section 3.05. Compliance Certificate. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company an Officers’ Certificate, one of the signers of which shall be the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company, stating that in the
course of the performance by the signers of their duties as Officers of the Company they would normally have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default and whether or not the signers know of any Default or Event of Default that occurred during
such period. If they do, the certificate shall describe each Default or Event of Default, its status and the action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Company also shall comply with TIA § 314(a)(4). 

Section 3.06. 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 purpose of this Indenture. 
 Section 3.07. Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default, an Officers’ Certificate
setting forth the details of such events which would constitute an Event of Default or Default, its status and the action which the Company proposes to take with respect thereto. 
  

 30 

 Section 3.08. Additional Interest and Contingent Interest. If Additional Interest is payable
by the Company pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or Section 7.03, or if Contingent Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Securities, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate to
that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest, or Contingent Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest, or Contingent Interest is payable. Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee
receives such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest, or Contingent Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest, or Contingent Interest directly to the persons entitled to it, the
Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. 
 Section 3.09.
Subsidiary Guarantees. If the Company shall issue any unsecured debt securities that are publicly traded or eligible for trading in the Portal Market (“Public Debt Securities”), and any of the Company’s Subsidiaries
provides a guarantee with respect to such Public Debt Securities, then the Company shall, within 30 days following such issuance, cause each such Subsidiary to execute a supplement to this Indenture under which such Subsidiary will guarantee the
Company’s obligations under the Securities on terms substantially similar (in the Company’s good faith determination) to the guarantees with respect to the Public Debt Securities. The guarantee of the Securities by any such Subsidiary may
be released if the Subsidiary no longer guarantees such Public Debt Securities, if such Subsidiary is dissolved or liquidated, if such Subsidiary is no longer the Company’s Subsidiary or upon satisfaction and discharge of the Securities in
accordance with this Indenture. 
 Section 3.10. Calculation Of Original Issue Discount. The Company shall file with the Trustee
promptly at the end of each calendar year (i) a written notice specifying the amount of Original Issue Discount (including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on the Securities as of the end of such year and (ii) such other specific
information relating to such Original Issue Discount as may then be reasonably requested by the Trustee and relevant under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, or the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder.

 ARTICLE 4 
 SUCCESSOR COMPANY 
 Section 4.01. Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets. The Company
shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its properties and assets to, another Person, unless: 
 (a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”), if not the Company, shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in form
satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of the Company under the Securities, this Indenture and, to the extent then still operative, the Registration Rights Agreement; 
  

 31 

 (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing; and 
 (c) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such supplemental indenture, if any, comply with this Indenture. 
 For
purposes of this Section 4.01, the conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such
Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company. 
 The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, but, in the
case of a lease of all or substantially all its properties and assets, the Company will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on the
Securities. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 REPORTING OBLIGATIONS 
 Section 5.01. Reporting Obligations. (a) The Company shall
deliver to the Trustee, within 15 days after filing with the SEC, copies of its annual reports and of information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe)
which the Company is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing is not intended to create any obligation to timely file reports with the SEC. 
 (b) Delivery of reports, information and other documents under this Section 5.01 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 Officers’ Certificates). 
  

 32 

 Section 5.02. Compliance with TIA. The Company also shall comply with the other provisions of
Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 ARTICLE 6 
 REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES 
 Section 6.01. Optional
Redemption. 
 (a) Prior to December 1, 2011, the Securities shall not be redeemable. 
 (b) On and after December 1, 2011, subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 6, the Company may, at its option, redeem for cash all or a
portion of the Securities, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) to
but excluding the Redemption Date. 
 (c) In the event that the Redemption Date occurs after a Regular Record Date for the payment of
interest and on or prior to the related Interest Payment Date, the Redemption Price for any such Securities to be redeemed shall be 100% of the principal amount of such Securities, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Contingent Interest and
Additional Interest, if any) shall be paid to the Holder on such Regular Record Date. 
 Section 6.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to
Trustee. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company, the Company shall, on or prior to the date that is 15 days prior to the date on which notice is given to the Holders (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Securities to be redeemed
pursuant to Section 6.03. Any such notice may be cancelled at any time prior to notice of such redemption being mailed to any Holder and shall thereby be void and of no effect. 
 Section 6.03. Selection by Trustee of Securities to Be Redeemed. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed at any time pursuant to
this Article 6, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, from the outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, by lot or on a pro rata basis among the Securities or by such other method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, including any method required by DTC or any successor depositary (and in such manner as is not prohibited by applicable legal requirements) and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions
of the principal of the Securities; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security not redeemed to less than $1,000. 
  

 33 

 The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for redemption and,
in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 For all purposes of this
Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security which
has been or is to be redeemed. 
 If any Securities selected for partial redemption are thereafter surrendered for conversion in part before
termination of the conversion right with respect to the portion of the Securities so selected, the converted portion of such Securities shall be deemed (so far as may be), solely for purposes of determining the aggregate principal amount of
Securities to be redeemed by the Company, to be the portion selected for redemption. Securities which have been converted during a selection of Securities to be redeemed may be treated by the Trustee as outstanding for the purpose of such selection.
Nothing in this Section 6.03 shall affect the right of any Holder to convert any Securities pursuant to Article 12 before the termination of the conversion right with respect thereto. 
 Section 6.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided for in Section 14.02 not less than 30 nor
more than 60 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date, to the Trustee, the Paying Agent and each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. The Trustee shall give notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense;
provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate, at least 15 calendar days prior to the date on which notice is required to be given to the Holders (unless shorter notice shall be satisfactory to
the Trustee), requesting that the Trustee give such notice at the Company’s expense and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the following items. 
 All notices of redemption shall state: 
 (a)
the Redemption Date; 
 (b) the Redemption Price; 
 (c) the then current Base Conversion Rate and the Share Incremental Factor and provide a statement that the Securities called for redemption may be converted at any time before the close of business on the third
Scheduled Trading Day prior to the Redemption Date, and that Holders who wish to convert Securities must comply with the relevant procedures; 
  

 34 

 (d) if less than all outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification of the particular
Securities (or portion thereof) to be redeemed, as well as the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be outstanding after such partial redemption; 
 (e) in case any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice which relates to such Security shall state that on and after the Redemption Date,
upon surrender of such Security, the Holder will receive, without charge, a new Security or Securities of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed; 
 (f) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and,
unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, that interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on Securities called for redemption (or the portion thereof) will cease to accrue on and after said date;

 (g) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price; 
 (h) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent; 
 (i) that Securities called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price; and 
 (j) the CUSIP or ISIN number, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP or ISIN number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Securities. 
 Section 6.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with
the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 2.06) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all the Securities which are to be
redeemed on that date other than Securities or portions of Securities called for redemption that are beneficially owned by the Company and have been delivered by the Company to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 6.06. Securities Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed
shall, on the Redemption Date, unless converted, become due and payable at the Redemption Price, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price, accrued and unpaid interest (including 

  

 35 

 
Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, such Securities shall cease to bear interest or Additional Interest. Upon surrender
of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price. 
 If
any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal and any premium shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Securities. 
 Section 6.07. Securities Redeemed in Part. Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant to the provisions of this Article 6)
shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 3.02 (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 make available for delivery to the Holder of such
Security at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security
so surrendered; provided that each such new Security will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or multiple thereof. 
 ARTICLE 7

 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 7.01. Events of Default. Each of the following is an “Event of Default”: 
 (a) default in any payment of interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on any Security when the same
becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of 30 days; 
 (b) default in the payment of the principal of any Security
when the same becomes due and payable at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise; 
 (c) failure by the Company to comply with its obligation to convert the Securities in accordance with this Indenture, upon exercise of a Holder’s conversion right and such failure continues for a period of 10
days; 
 (d) failure by the Company to give a Company Notice of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change to Holders pursuant to
Section 11.01 or notice of a specified corporate transaction (as described in Section 12.01(a)(iv)) or a notice of a Public Acquirer Change of Control (as described in Section 12.04(c)) to Holders, in each case when due; 

 

 36 

 (e) failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Article 4; 
 (f) failure by the Company for a period of 60 days after written notice from the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of Securities
then outstanding has been received to comply with any obligation, covenant or agreement in this Indenture or under the Securities (or 180 days after such notice with respect to any failure to comply with Article 5 hereof) (other than those referred
to in Section 7.01(a) through (e) and Section 7.01(g) through (i)); 
 (g) default by the Company or any Subsidiary in the
payment of the principal or interest on any mortgage, agreement or other instrument under which there may be outstanding, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for money borrowed in excess of $25,000,000 in the aggregate of
the Company and/or any such Subsidiary, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, resulting in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable, and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled
within 30 days after written notice of such acceleration has been received by the Company or such Subsidiary from the Trustee (or to the Company and the Trustee from Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding Securities); 

(h) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: 
 (i) commences a voluntary case or proceeding; 
 (ii) consents to the entry of judgment, decree or order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; 
 (iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property; 
 (iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; 
 (v) consents to or acquiesces in the institution of a bankruptcy or an insolvency proceeding against it; 
 (vi) takes any corporate action to authorize or effect any of the foregoing; or 
 (vii) takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency; 
  

 37 

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

 (i) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case; 
 (ii) appoints a Custodian of the Company for all or substantially all of the Company’s or any Significant Subsidiary’s property;
or 
 (iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or Significant Subsidiary; 
 and, in each case, the order or decree or relief remains unstayed and in effect for 90 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. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Default under clause (f) or (g) of this Section 7.01 will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company (or the Holders of 25% or more in
principal amount of the outstanding Securities notify the Company and the Trustee) of the Default in writing and the Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 7.01 after receipt
of such notice. 
 Section 7.02. Acceleration. Subject to Section 7.03, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of
Default specified in Section 7.01(h) or Section 7.01(i) above) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee by notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may, and the Trustee at the request of such Holders shall, declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Interest and premium, if any, on all the Securities to be due and payable. Upon such
a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(h) or Section 7.01(i) above occurs and
is continuing, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and Additional Interest and premium, if any, on all the Securities outstanding shall be immediately due and payable with no further action by the Trustee or the Holders.

 Section 7.03. Sole Remedy for Failure to Report. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the sole remedy for an
Event of Default relating 

  

 38 

 
to the failure to comply with the reporting obligations under Article 5 of this Indenture, and for any failure to comply with the requirements of
Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA, will for the 365 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the principal amount of the Securities at a rate equal to 0.25% per
annum. This Additional Interest will be in addition to any Additional Interest that may accrue as a result of a registration default as described in the Registration Rights Agreement and will be payable in the same manner and subject to the same
terms as other interest payable under this Indenture. The Additional Interest will accrue on all outstanding Securities from and including the date on which an Event of Default relating to a failure to comply with Article 5 or Section 314(a)(1)
of the TIA first occurs to but not excluding the 365th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which the Event of
Default relating to the reporting obligations under Article 5 or Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA shall have been cured or waived). On such 365th day (or earlier, if the Event of Default relating to such reporting obligations is cured or waived prior to such 365th day), such Additional Interest will cease to accrue and the Securities will be subject to acceleration and other remedies as provided in this Article 7 if the
Event of Default is continuing. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 7.02 will not affect the rights of Holders of Securities in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default and will have no effect on the
rights of Holders of Securities under the Registration Rights Agreement. 
 Section 7.04. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default
other than an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(f), occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or
premium, if any, 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 them 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 7.05. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities by notice to the Trustee
may (a) waive, by their consent (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities), an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences except
(i) a Default or Event of Default resulting from the non-payment of the principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on a Security, (ii) a Default or Event of Default resulting
from the failure to 

  

 39 

 
deliver, upon conversion, shares of Common Stock or the combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, if any, upon the conversion of the Security or
(iii) a Default or Event of Default in respect of a provision that under Section 10.02 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected and (b) rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Securities and its
consequences if (i) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) all existing Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of, interest (including Contingent
Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is deemed cured, but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any consequent right. 
 Section 7.06. Control
by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities 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 limits with law or this Indenture or, subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders or would 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. 
 Section 7.07. Limitation on Suits. Subject to Section 7.08, a Holder may not pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the
Securities unless: 
 (a) such Holder has previously given to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default is continuing;

 (b) Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Securities have requested that the Trustee pursue the remedy;

 (c) such Holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to
be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (d) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt of the
request and the offer of security or indemnity; and 
 (e) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities have
not given the Trustee a direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
 A
Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder. 
  

 40 

 Section 7.08. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Indenture (including, without limitation, Section 7.07), the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on the Securities held by
such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Securities, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 7.09. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default specified in clauses (a) or (b) of
Section 7.01 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
Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 8.07. 
 Section 7.10. 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 (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Company or its respective creditors or properties and, unless prohibited by law
or applicable regulations, may be entitled and empowered to participate as a member of any official committee of creditors appointed in such matter, and 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 for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 8.07. 
 Section 7.11. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 7, it shall pay out the money or property in
the following order: 
 FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 8.07; 
 SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Securities for principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) or premium, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for principal, interest and premium, respectively; and 
  

 41 

 THIRD: to the Company. 
 The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Holders pursuant to this Section 7.11. 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 amount to be paid. 
 Section 7.12. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted a proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and the proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason,
or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to the Holder, then, subject to any determination in the proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders will be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and
thereafter all rights and remedies of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders will continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 7.13. Undertaking of 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 7.13 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by the Company, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Section 7.08 or
a suit by Holders of more than 10% in outstanding principal amount of the Securities. 
 ARTICLE 8 
 TRUSTEE 
 Section 8.01.
Duties of Trustee. (a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers
under this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity or security against loss, liability or expense that might be incurred in compliance with such request or
direction. 
  

 42 

 (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 implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (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, opinions or orders furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture.
However, in the case of any such certificates, opinions or orders which by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall examine such certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of 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 paragraph (b) of this Section 8.01; 
 (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer of the Trustee 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 7.06. 
 (d)
Every provision of this Indenture that in any way relates to the Trustee is subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 8.01. 
 (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Trustee may agree in writing with the Company. 
 (f) Money held in trust by the Trustee need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (g) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its
rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
  

 43 

 (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 Section 8.01 and to the provisions of the TIA. 
 (i) Unless
otherwise specifically provided in this Indenture, any demand, request, direction or notice from the Company shall be sufficient if signed by an Officer of the Company. 
 Section 8.02. Rights of Trustee. Subject to Section 8.01: 
 (a) The Trustee may conclusively
rely on any document (whether in its original or facsimile form) reasonably 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. The
Trustee shall receive and retain financial reports and statements of the Company as provided herein, but shall have no duty to review or analyze such reports or statements to determine compliance under covenants or other obligations of the Company.

 (b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officers’ Certificate and/or an Opinion of Counsel. The
Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel. 
 (c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers, unless the Trustee’s conduct constitutes willful misconduct or negligence. 
 (e) The Trustee may consult with counsel of its
selection, and the advice or opinion of counsel with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture and the Securities shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by
it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. 
 (f) The Trustee shall not be responsible or
liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) resulting from actions taken in good faith and which the Trustee believes to be authorized or within its rights or
powers, unless the Trustee’s conduct constitutes willful misconduct or negligence. 
  

 44 

 (g) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without
limitation, its right to be indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, Securities Custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 
 (h) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers authorized at such
time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Section 8.03. 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 or Registrar may do the same with
like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 8.10 and 8.11. In addition, the Trustee shall be permitted to engage in transactions with the Company; provided, however, that if, during the continuance of any Default, the Trustee
acquires any conflicting interest the Trustee must (i) eliminate such conflict within 90 days of acquiring such conflicting interest, (ii) apply to the SEC for permission to continue acting as Trustee or (iii) resign. 
 Section 8.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee shall not be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy
of this Indenture or the Securities, shall not be accountable for the Company’s use of the proceeds from the Securities, shall not be responsible for the use or application of any money received by any Paying Agent other than the Trustee and
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 8.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing and if a Trust Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof, the Trustee shall mail by first class mail to each Holder at the address set forth in the Securities Register notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a Default or Event of
Default in payment of principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on any Security (including payments pursuant to the optional redemption or required repurchase provisions of such
Security, if any), the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as it determines in good faith that withholding the notice is in the interests of Holders. 
 Section 8.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. As promptly as practicable after each May 15 beginning with the May 15 following the date of this Indenture, and in any event prior to July 1 in
each year, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder a brief report dated as of such May 15 that complies with TIA § 313(a), if required by such TIA § 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with TIA § 313(b). The Trustee shall also
transmit by mail all reports required by TIA § 313(c). 
  

 45 

 Section 8.07. Compensation and Indemnity. The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to
time such compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee
of an express trust. In addition to the compensation the Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred or made by it. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation and out-of-pocket
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee’s agents, counsel, accountants and experts. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all loss, liability, damages, claims or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and expenses) incurred by it without negligence or bad faith on its part in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture (including this
Section 8.07) and of defending itself against any claims (whether asserted by any Holder, the Company, or otherwise). 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 shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Company’s expense in the defense. The Trustee may have separate
counsel and the Company shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel, provided that the Company shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes the Trustee’s defense, and, in the reasonable judgment of outside counsel to
the Trustee, there is no conflict of interest between the Company and the Trustee in connection with such defense. 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, negligence or bad faith. 
 To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this
Section 8.07, 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 principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) and premium, if any, on particular Securities. Such lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. The Trustee’s right to receive payment of any amounts due under this Section 8.07 shall not be
subordinate to any other unsecured liability or debt of the Company. 
 The Company’s payment obligations pursuant to this
Section 8.07 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Default specified in Section 7.01(h) or Section 7.01(i) with respect to the Company, the expenses are intended to
constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. 
  

 46 

 Section 8.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign at any time by so notifying the
Company. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may remove the Trustee by so notifying the Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee. The Company shall remove the Trustee if: 
 (a) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 8.10; 
 (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 or is removed by the Company or by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities and such Holders do not
reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if a vacancy exists in the office of the 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 promptly transfer all property held by it as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 8.07. 
 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 at least 10% in principal amount of the Securities may petition, at
the Company’s expense, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 If the Trustee fails to comply
with Section 8.10, unless the Trustee’s duty to resign is stayed as provided in TIA § 310(b), any Holder 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 8.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 8.07
shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
  

 47 

 Section 8.09. 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 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; provided that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall only apply to its successor or successors by
merger, consolidation or conversion. 
 Section 8.10. Eligibility; Disqualification. The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the
requirements of TIA § 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $100 million as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 310(b); provided,
however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of TIA § 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 § 310(b)(1) are met. 
 Section 8.11. Preferential Collection of Claims Against
Company. The Trustee shall comply with TIA § 311(a), excluding any creditor relationship listed in TIA § 311(b). A Trustee who has resigned or been removed shall be subject to TIA § 311(a) to the extent indicated.

due, including interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, with respect to the Securities and the other rights, duties and obligations of Holders, as beneficiaries hereof solely with respect to the
amounts, if any, so deposited with the Trustee; and (iii) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar under this Indenture with respect to the Securities), and the

discharging this Indenture with respect to the Securities; however, the Company hereby agrees to reimburse the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar for any costs or expenses thereafter reasonably and properly
incurred by the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar and to compensate the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar for any services thereafter reasonably and properly
rendered by the Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Registrar in connection with this Indenture with respect to the Securities. 
 Section 9.02. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money to the Holders entitled thereto by reason of any order or judgment of any court of governmental authority
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, the Company’s obligations under this 

  

 49 

 
Indenture with respect to the Securities shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 9.01 until such time as
the Trustee or the Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with this Indenture and the Securities to the Holders entitled thereto; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal amount of,
interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on any Security following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Securities to receive
such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 Section 9.03. Officers’ Certificate; Opinion of Counsel.
Upon any application or demand by the Company to the Trustee to take any action under Section 9.01, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel stating that all conditions precedent, if any,

 ARTICLE 10 
 AMENDMENTS 
 Section 10.01. Without Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture and the Securities without notice to or consent of any Holder: 
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency in this Indenture in a manner that does not individually or in the aggregate adversely affect
the rights of any Holder of Securities in any material respect; 
 (b) to comply with Article 4 in respect of the assumption by a Successor
Company of an obligation of the Company under this Indenture; 
 (c) to secure the Securities or add guarantees with respect thereto;

 (d) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the
Company; 
 (e) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the qualification of this Indenture under the TIA; 

(f) to provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Paying Agent or facilitate the administration of the trusts under this
Indenture by more than one Trustee or Paying Agent; 
 (g) to add to any Events of Default for the benefit of Holders of Securities;

  

 50 

 (h) to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Holder; or 

(i) to conform the text of this Indenture or the Securities to the “Description of Notes” section of the Offering Memorandum. 
 After an amendment under this Section 10.01 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The
failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 10.01. 
 Section 10.02. With Consent of Holders. The Company and the Trustee may amend this Indenture and the Securities without notice to any Holder but with the written or electronic consent of the Holders of at
least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities), and subject to the provisions of
Section 7.05, past Defaults or compliance with the provisions of this Indenture or the Securities issued hereunder may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Securities then
outstanding (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, Securities). However, without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not: 
 (a) reduce the percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment or waive any past default; 
 (b) reduce the rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest, including Additional Interest, or premium, on any Security; 
 (c) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Security; 
 (d) otherwise impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on such Holder’s Securities on or
after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Securities; 
 (e) make any change that impairs or adversely affects the conversion rights of any Securities; 
 (f) reduce the Redemption Price,
the Fundamental Change Purchase Price or the Purchase Price payable upon the redemption or repurchase or conversion of any Security or amend or modify in any manner adverse to Holders of the Securities the Company’s obligation to make such
payments; 
  

 51 

 (g) make any Security payable in currency other than that stated in the Security (it being understood
that all references to cash in this Indenture and the Securities are to U.S. legal tender); or 
 (h) make any changes to the amendment
provisions which require each Holder’s consent or to the waiver provisions. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders
under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. A consent to any amendment or waiver under this Indenture by any Holder of
the Securities given in connection with a tender or exchange of such Holder’s Securities will not be rendered invalid by such tender or exchange. 
 After an amendment under this Section 10.02 becomes effective, the Company shall mail to Holders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Holders, or any defect therein,
shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 10.02. 
 Section 10.03. Compliance with Trust
Indenture Act. Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Securities shall comply with the TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 10.04. Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. 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 amendment or waiver becomes effective or otherwise in accordance with any related solicitation documents. After an amendment or waiver becomes effective,
it shall bind every Holder. An amendment or waiver shall become effective upon receipt by the Trustee of the requisite number of written or electronic consents under Section 10.01 or 10.02, as applicable. 
 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 

  

 52 

 
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 become valid or effective more than 120 days after such record date. 
 Section 10.05. Notation on or Exchange
of Securities. If an amendment changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security regarding the changed terms and return
it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the Company in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate
notation or to issue a new Security shall not affect the validity of such amendment. 
 Section 10.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments.
The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 10 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may but need not sign it. In signing
such amendment the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and (subject to Sections 8.01 and 8.02) 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. 
 ARTICLE 11 
 PURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS UPON A FUNDAMENTAL 
 CHANGE; PURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

 Section 11.01. Purchase at the Option of the Holder Upon a Fundamental
Change. If a Fundamental Change shall occur at any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase any or all of such Holder’s Securities on a date specified by the Company that is no
later than the 35th calendar day after the date of the Company Notice of the occurrence of such Fundamental Change
(subject to extension to comply with applicable law, as provided in Section 11.03(d)) (the “Fundamental Change Purchase Date”). The Company shall purchase such Securities at a price (the “Fundamental Change Purchase
Price”), which shall be paid in cash, equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, unless
the Fundamental Change Purchase Date is between a Regular Record Date and the Interest Payment Date to which it relates, in which case the Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall equal 100% of the principal amount of Securities to be purchased and
accrued and unpaid interest, including Additional Interest, shall be paid to the Holder of record on the Regular Record Date. 
  

 53 

 (a) Notice of Fundamental Change. The
Company, or at its request (which must be received by the Paying Agent at least three Business Days (or such lesser period as agreed to by the Paying Agent) prior to the date the Paying Agent is requested to give such notice as described below) the
Paying Agent, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall mail to all Holders and the Trustee a Company Notice of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change and of the purchase right arising as a result thereof, including the information
required by Section 11.03(a) hereof, on or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of such
Fundamental Change. The Company shall promptly furnish to the Paying Agent a copy of such Company Notice. 
 (b) Exercise of Option.
For a Security to be so purchased at the option of the Holder, such Holder must deliver to the Paying Agent such Security duly endorsed for transfer, together with a written notice of purchase (a “Fundamental Change Purchase
Notice”) in the form entitled “Form of Fundamental Change Purchase Notice” attached to the Security duly completed, on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, subject to extension to
comply with applicable law. The Fundamental Change Purchase Notice shall state: 
 (i) if certificated, the certificate
numbers of the Securities which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased, or if not certificated, such notice must comply with appropriate DTC procedures; 
 (ii) the portion of the principal amount of the Securities which the Holder shall deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 in principal amount or a multiple thereof; and 
 (iii) that such Securities shall be purchased as of the Fundamental Change Purchase Date pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in
paragraph 5 of the Securities and in this Indenture. 
 (c) Procedures. The Company shall purchase from a Holder, pursuant to this
Section 11.01, Securities if the principal amount of such Securities is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000 if so requested by such Holder. 
 Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.01 shall be consummated by the delivery of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price to be received by the Holder promptly following the later of the
Fundamental Change Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of the Securities. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 11.01 shall have the right at any time prior to the close of business on the 

  

 54 

 
Business Day prior to the Fundamental Change Purchase Date to withdraw such Fundamental Change Purchase Notice (in whole or in part) by delivery of a written
notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 11.03(b). 
 The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of
the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Purchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal thereof. 
 At or before 11:00 a.m. (New York
City time) on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) cash sufficient to pay the
aggregate Fundamental Change Purchase Price of the Securities to be purchased pursuant to this Section 11.01. Payment by the Paying Agent of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price for such Securities shall be made promptly following the later of
the Fundamental Change Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of such Securities. If the Paying Agent holds, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, cash sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Purchase Price of such
Securities on the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, then, on and after such date, such Securities shall cease to be outstanding and interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any), on such Securities shall cease to accrue,
whether or not book-entry transfer of such Securities is made or such Securities are delivered to the Paying Agent, and all other rights of the Holder shall terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and
previously accrued and unpaid interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any), upon delivery or transfer of the Securities). Nothing herein shall preclude any withholding tax required by law. 
 The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of
Holders or the Trustee all cash held by the Paying Agent for the payment of the Fundamental Change Purchase Price and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company
acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the cash 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 deliver all cash held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds
disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the cash delivered to the Trustee. 
 Section 11.02. Purchase of Securities at the Option of the Holder. 
 (a) A Holder shall have the option to require the
Company to purchase any outstanding Securities on each of December 1, 2011, December 1, 2016 and December 1, 2021 (each, a “Purchase Date”), at a price (the “Purchase Price”) 

  

 55 

 
which shall be paid in cash, equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest, including any
Additional Interest, to but excluding the Purchase Date, upon: 
 (i) delivery to the Paying Agent by the Holder of a written
notice of purchase (a “Purchase Notice”) at any time from the opening of business on the date that is 20 Business Days prior to the relevant Purchase Date until the close of business on the second Business Day prior to such Purchase
Date, stating: 
 (A) if certificated, the certificate numbers of the Securities which the Holder will deliver to be
purchased, or, if not certificated, the Purchase Notice must comply with appropriate DTC procedures; 
 (B) the portion of the
principal amount of the Securities which the Holder will deliver to be purchased, which portion must be $1,000 in principal amount or a multiple thereof; 
 (C) that such Securities shall be purchased by the Company as of the Purchase Date pursuant to the terms and conditions specified in paragraph 4 of the Securities and in this Indenture; and 
 (ii) delivery or book-entry transfer of such Securities to the Paying Agent (together with all necessary endorsements) at the offices of
the Paying Agent, such delivery or transfer being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Purchase Price therefor; provided, however, that such Purchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 11.02 only if the Securities so
delivered or transferred to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in the related Purchase Notice. 
 (b)
The Company shall purchase from a Holder, pursuant to this Section 11.02, Securities if the principal amount of such Securities is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000 if so requested by such Holder. 
 (c) Any purchase by the Company contemplated pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.02 shall be consummated by the delivery of the Purchase
Price to be received by the Holder promptly following the later of the Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of the Securities. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Purchase Notice contemplated by this Section 11.02 shall have the right at any time prior to the close of
business on the Business Day prior to the Purchase Date to withdraw such Purchase Notice (in whole or in part) by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 11.03(b). 
  

 56 

 (e) The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Purchase Notice or
written notice of withdrawal thereof. 
 (f) At or before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Purchase Date, the Company shall deposit
with the Paying Agent (or if the Company or an Affiliate of the Company is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust) cash sufficient to pay the aggregate Purchase Price of the Securities to be purchased pursuant to this
Section 11.02. Payment by the Paying Agent of the Purchase Price for such Securities shall be made promptly following the later of the Purchase Date or the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of such Securities. If the Paying Agent holds,
in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, cash sufficient to pay the Purchase Price of such Securities on the Purchase Date, then, on and after such date, such Securities shall cease to be outstanding and interest (including Contingent
Interest and Additional Interest, if any) on such Securities shall cease to accrue, whether or not book-entry transfer of such Securities is made or such Securities are delivered to the Paying Agent, and all other rights of the Holder shall
terminate (other than the right to receive the Purchase Price and previously accrued interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) upon delivery or transfer of the Securities). Nothing herein shall preclude any withholding
tax required by law. 
 (g) The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in writing that the Paying Agent
shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all cash held by the Paying Agent for the payment of the Purchase Price and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or an
Affiliate of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the cash 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 deliver all cash held by it to the Trustee and to
account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the cash delivered to the Trustee. 
 Section 11.03. Further Conditions and Procedures for Purchase at the Option of the Holder Upon a Fundamental Change and Purchase of Securities at the Option of the Holder. 
 (a) Notice of Purchase Date or Fundamental Change. The Company shall send notices (each, a
“Company Notice”) to the Holders, the Trustee and the Paying Agent, not less than 20 Business Days prior to each Purchase Date, or on or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the Fundamental Change, as the case may be (each such date of delivery, a “Company Notice Date”). Each
Company Notice shall include a form of Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, to be completed by a Holder and shall state: 
 (i) the applicable Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be;

 (v) that Securities must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect payment of the Purchase Price or the Fundamental Change Purchase
Price, as the case may be;

been delivered may be surrendered for conversion only if the applicable Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, has been withdrawn in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
 (vii) that the Purchase Price or the Fundamental Change Purchase Price for any Securities as to which a Purchase Notice or a Fundamental
Change Purchase Notice, as applicable, has been given and not withdrawn shall be paid by the Paying Agent promptly following the later of the Purchase Date or the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as applicable, or the time of book-entry transfer or
delivery of such Securities; 
 (viii) the procedures the Holder must follow under Sections 11.01 or 11.02, as applicable, and
Section 11.03; 
 (ix) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such Purchase Price or Fundamental Change

 Simultaneously with providing such Company Notice, the Company will publish a notice containing the information in

 At the Company’s request, made at least five Business Days prior to the date upon which such notice is to be mailed, and at the Company’s

 (b) Adequacy and Effect of Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice; Withdrawal; Effect of Event of Default. The Company shall
reasonably determine whether the Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice delivered by the relevant Holders satisfies the conditions set out in Section 11.02(a), Section 11.01(b) and Section 11.03 for such notices. The
Company’s determination under this Section 11.03(b) will be binding and conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 Upon receipt by the
Company of the Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice specified in Section 11.02(a) or Section 11.01(b), as applicable, the Holder of the Securities in respect of which such Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase
Notice, as the case may be, was given shall (unless such Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice is withdrawn as specified in the following two paragraphs) thereafter be entitled to receive solely the Purchase Price or Fundamental
Change Purchase Price with respect to such Securities. Such Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price shall be paid by the Paying Agent to such Holder promptly following the later of (x) the Purchase Date or the Fundamental Change

 A Purchase Notice or

 (i) the

 (iii) the principal amount, if any, of such Securities which remains subject to the original Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change
Purchase Notice, as the case may be, and which has been or shall be delivered for purchase by the Company. 
 There shall be no purchase of
any Securities pursuant to Section 11.02 or Section 11.01 if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (other than a default that is cured by the payment of the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may
be). The Paying Agent shall promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Securities (x) with respect to which a Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice, as the case may be, has been withdrawn in compliance with this
Indenture, or (y) held by it during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than a default that is cured by the payment of the Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be) in which case, upon such return, the
Purchase Notice or Fundamental Change Purchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. 
 (c) Securities

satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in 

  

 60 

 
writing) and the Company shall execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Securities, 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 Securities so surrendered which is not
purchased. 
 (d) Covenant to Comply with Securities Laws Upon Purchase of Securities. In connection with any offer to purchase
Securities under Section 11.02 or Section 11.01, the Company shall, to the extent applicable, (a) comply with Rules 13e-4 and 14e-1 (and any successor provisions thereto) under the Exchange Act, if applicable; (b) file the
related Schedule TO (or any successor schedule, form or report) under the Exchange Act, if applicable; and (c) otherwise comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws so as to permit the rights and obligations under
Section 11.02 or Section 11.01 to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in Section 11.02 or Section 11.01. To the extent any other provision of this Indenture conflicts with any of the foregoing, the foregoing
shall govern. 
 (e) Repayment to the Company. Subject to applicable abandoned property laws, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall
return to the Company any cash or property that remains unclaimed, as provided in paragraph 8 of the Securities, together with interest that the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be, has expressly agreed in writing to pay, if any, that is
held by them for the payment of a Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be; provided, however, that to the extent that the aggregate amount of cash or property deposited by the Company pursuant to
Section 11.01(c) or Section 11.02(f), as applicable, exceeds the aggregate Purchase Price or Fundamental Change Purchase Price, as the case may be, of the Securities or portions thereof which the Company is obligated to purchase as of the
Purchase Date or the Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be, then promptly on and after the Business Day following the Purchase Date or Fundamental Change Purchase Date, as the case may be, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall return
any such excess to the Company together with interest that the Trustee or Paying Agent, as the case may be, has expressly agreed in writing to pay, if any.

 ARTICLE 12 
 CONVERSION 
 Section 12.01. Conversion of Securities. (a) Right to
Convert. Subject to the procedures for conversion set forth in this Article 12, a Holder may convert its Securities prior to November 1, 2026 when one or more of the conditions specified below are met and during the related specified
period, subject to the limitation in clause 12.01(a)(iii). On and after November 1, 2026, as set forth under clause (b) below, a Holder may convert its Securities until the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding
Stated Maturity regardless of the conditions specified below. Whenever the Securities shall become convertible upon one or more of the conditions stated in clauses (i), (ii), (iv)(A), (iv)(B) or (iv)(C) below, the Company or, at the
Company’s request, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall notify the Holders of the event triggering such convertibility in the manner provided in Section 14.02 and, in the case of one or more conditions stated in
clauses (iv)(B) or (iv)(C), the Company shall also publish a notice in accordance with Section 11.03(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee has no duty to determine if Securities have become convertible, and its only obligation is to
notify Holders of such at the Company’s request. Whenever the Securities shall become convertible upon the condition stated in clause (iii), notice of the event triggering such convertibility shall be given in accordance with the
provisions of Section 6.04. Any notice so given shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. 
 (i) Conversion Upon Satisfaction of Sale Price Condition. A Holder may surrender all or a portion of its Securities for conversion
during any fiscal quarter (and only during such fiscal quarter) commencing after March 31, 2007 if the Last Reported Sale Price for the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the
last Trading Day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter is greater than or equal to 135% of the Base Conversion Price in effect on such last Trading Day. 
 (ii) Conversion Upon Satisfaction of Trading Price Condition. Prior to December 1, 2011, a Holder may surrender its Securities
for conversion during the five Business Day period after any 10 consecutive Trading Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, as determined following a request by a
Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 12.01(a)(ii), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 95% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the applicable Conversion
Rate for such Trading Day. In connection with any conversion in accordance with this Section 12.01(a)(ii), the Bid Solicitation Agent shall have no obligation to 

  

 62 

 
determine the Trading Price of the Securities unless requested by the Company; and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request unless a Holder
provides the Company with reasonable evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Securities would be less than 95% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the applicable Conversion Rate. Promptly
after receiving such evidence, the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to determine the Trading Price of the Securities beginning on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per $1,000 principal
amount of Securities for any Trading Day is greater than or equal to 95% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the applicable Conversion Rate. 
 Solely for purposes of determining the satisfaction of the Trading Price condition described above, the Applicable Conversion Rate on any day will be
determined as if the Applicable Stock Price were the Last Reported Sale Price on such day. 
 (iii) Conversion Upon Notice
of Redemption. If the Company calls any or all of the Securities for Redemption, a Holder may surrender for the Securities called for redemption at any time prior to the close of business on the third Scheduled Trading Day prior to the related
Redemption Date, even if the Securities are not otherwise convertible at such time, after which time a Holder’s right to convert will expire unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price. 
 (iv) Conversion Upon Specified Corporate Transactions. 
 (A) If the Company elects to (1) distribute to all holders of Common Stock any rights or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a
period expiring within 45 days after the Ex-Dividend Date of the distribution, shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Price of Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the
Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, or (2) distribute to all holders of Common Stock assets, debt securities or rights to purchase securities of the Company, which distribution has a per share Fair
Market Value, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors, exceeding 15% of the Last Reported Sale Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, then, in each case, the Company must notify the
Holders of such distribution and of their rights under this clause (A), in the manner provided in Section 14.02, at least 15 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such 

  

 63 

 
distribution. Once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender Securities for conversion at any time until the earlier of 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the Business Day immediately prior to such Ex-Dividend Date or the Company’s announcement that such distribution will not take place even if the Securities are not otherwise convertible at such time. 
 (B) If the Company is party to a transaction described in clause (2) of the definition of Fundamental Change (without giving effect
to the proviso set forth in the definition thereof relating to Publicly Traded Securities), the Company must notify Holders of such an event and of their rights under this clause (B), in the manner provided in Section 14.02, at least 15
Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date for such transaction. Once the Company has given such notice, Holders may surrender Securities for conversion at any time until seven Scheduled Trading Days after the actual effective
date of such transaction or, if later, the related Fundamental Change Purchase Date. 
 (C) A Holder may surrender all or a
portion of such Holder’s Securities for conversion, if a Fundamental Change of the type described in clause (1) or (3) in the definition thereof occurs. In such event, Holders may surrender Securities for conversion at any time
beginning on the actual Effective Date of such Fundamental Change until and including the date which is seven Scheduled Trading Days after the actual effective date of such transaction or, if later, until the related Fundamental Change Purchase
Date. 
 A Holder may convert a portion of the principal amount of Securities if the portion is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000. The number of shares of
Common Stock issuable or the combination of cash payable and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable, if any, upon conversion of a Security shall be determined as set forth in Section 12.01(d). 
 (b) Conversion During Specified Period Immediately Prior to Stated Maturity. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Holder may
surrender its Securities for conversion beginning on November 1, 2026, until the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Stated Maturity. 
 (c) Conversion Procedures. The following procedures shall apply to the conversion of Securities: 
 (i) In respect of a Definitive Security, a Holder must (A) complete and manually sign the conversion notice on the back of the
Security, or a facsimile of such conversion notice; (B) deliver such conversion notice, which is irrevocable, and the Security 

  

 64 

 
to the Conversion Agent; (C) to the extent any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s,
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents as may be required by the Conversion Agent; (D) if required pursuant to Section 12.01(f) below, pay all transfer or similar taxes; and (E) if required pursuant to
Section 2.01(d) above, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled. 
 (ii) In respect of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, a Beneficial Owner must comply with DTC’s procedures for converting a beneficial interest in a Global Security and, if required pursuant to
Section 2.01(d) above, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Beneficial Owner is not entitled, and if required, taxes or duties, if any. 
 The date a Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements is the “Conversion Date” hereunder. 
 If a Holder converts more than one Security at the same time, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable or the combination of the cash payable and
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion, if any, 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 or the Authenticating Agent 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. 
 Delivery of shares of Common Stock will be accomplished by delivery to the
Conversion Agent of certificates for the relevant number of shares of Common Stock, other than in the case of Holders of Global Securities in book-entry form with DTC, in which case shares of Common Stock shall be delivered in accordance with DTC
customary practices. 
 (d) Settlement Upon Conversion. In the event that the Company receives a Holder’s notice of conversion
upon satisfaction of one or more of the conditions to conversion described in this Section 12.01, the Company will notify the relevant Holders within two Scheduled Trading Days following the Conversion Date whether the Company will satisfy its
obligation to convert the Securities through delivery of (x) shares of Common Stock pursuant to clause (ii) below (plus cash in lieu of fractional shares) or (y) a combination of cash and 

  

 65 

 
shares of Common Stock pursuant to clause (i) below. At any time on or before the 13th Scheduled Trading Day prior to the Stated Maturity, the Company may irrevocably waive, in its sole discretion without the consent of the Holders, by notice to
the Trustee and to the Holders, its right to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in shares of its Common Stock pursuant to clause (ii) below (plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares); provided that the Company may not elect to satisfy
such obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below if the Company has made the election to waive such right to do so. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company elects to redeem the Securities, it will, in its notice of redemption, elect whether
it will settle any conversions of Securities called for redemption pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) below (unless it has irrevocably elected to waive its right to satisfy its Conversion Obligation pursuant to clause (ii) below), which
election shall apply to all Securities converted following the Company’s notice of redemption. 
 (i) If the Company
chooses or has to satisfy its obligation to convert the Securities (the “Conversion Obligation”) by a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, upon conversion the Company will, deliver to converting Holders, in respect of
each $1,000 principal amount of Securities being converted, a “Settlement Amount” equal to (i) cash in an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the Conversion Value and (b) $1,000; (ii) if the Conversion Value is
greater than $1,000, an amount in shares equal to the difference between the Conversion Value and $1,000, divided by the Applicable Stock Price for such Securities; and (iii) cash in lieu of any fractional shares as described below in
Section 12.01(e). 
 The Settlement Amount in respect of any Security converted pursuant to this clause (i) will be
delivered to converting Holders as soon as practicable following the last day following the determination of the Applicable Stock Price for such Security. 
 (ii) If the Company elects to satisfy all of its Conversion Obligation with respect to Securities to be converted in shares of Common Stock, the Company will deliver to any converting Holder, for each $1,000 principal
amount of the Securities, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Applicable Conversion Rate for such Securities, plus cash in lieu of any fractional shares determined as described below in Section 12.01(e). 
 The shares of Common Stock in respect of any Security converted (and cash in lieu of any fractional shares) pursuant to this clause
(ii) will be delivered through the Conversion Agent or DTC as soon as practicable following the determination of the Applicable Stock Price for such Security. 
  

 66 

 (iii) With respect to a conversion of a Security pursuant hereto, at and after the close
of business on the last Trading Day (the “Relevant Date”) of the 10 Trading Day period used to determine the Applicable Stock Price for such conversion, the Person in whose name any certificate representing any shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion is registered shall be treated as a stockholder of record of the Company to the extent permitted by law. On and after the Conversion Date with respect to a conversion of a Security pursuant hereto, all rights of
the Holder of such Security shall terminate, other than the right to receive the consideration deliverable upon conversion of such Security as provided herein. A Holder of a Security is not entitled, as such, to any rights of a holder of Common
Stock until, if such Holder converts such Security and is entitled pursuant hereto to receive shares of Common Stock in respect of such conversion, the close of business on the Relevant Date or respective Relevant Dates, as the case may be, with
respect to such conversion. 
 (e) Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares. The Company shall not issue a fractional share of
Common Stock upon conversion of Securities. Instead the Company shall deliver cash for the current market value of the fractional share. The current market value of a fractional share shall be determined to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share by
multiplying the Applicable Stock Price by the fractional amount and rounding the product to the nearest whole cent. 
 (f) Taxes on
Conversion. If a Holder converts Securities, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of shares 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 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 shall be due because the shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, but the Conversion Agent shall have no duty to determine if any such tax is due.
Nothing herein shall preclude any withholding of tax required by law. 
 (g) Certain Covenants of the Company. 
 (i) The Company shall, prior to issuance of any Securities hereunder, and from time to time as may be necessary, reserve out of its
authorized but unissued Common Stock or shares of Common Stock held in treasury, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock, free of preemptive rights, to permit the conversion of the Securities. 
  

 67 

 (ii) All 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 free of any lien or adverse claim. 
 (iii) The Company shall endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the issuance and delivery of
shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of Securities, if any, and shall cause to have listed or quoted all such shares of Common Stock on each U.S. national securities exchange or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common
Stock is then listed or quoted. 
 (iv) Before taking any action which would cause an adjustment increasing the Base
Conversion Rate to an amount that would cause the Base Conversion Price to be reduced below the then par value per share of the Common Stock, if any, of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Securities, the Company will take all
corporate action which may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the Company may validly and legally issue shares of such Common Stock at such adjusted Base Conversion Rate. 
 Section 12.02. Adjustments to Conversion Rate and the Incremental Share Factor. The applicable Conversion Rate shall be adjusted by the
Company (and the Incremental Share Factor shall be proportionally adjusted on the same basis as set forth below) as follows: 
 (a) If the
Company issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on shares of the Common Stock, or effects a share split or share combination, the Base Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	 OS’
 OS0

  

					
	where,	 		 	
	CR0	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination, as the case may
be;
			
	CR’	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination, as the case
may be;

  

 68 

					
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination, as
the case may be; and
			
	OS’	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such dividend or distribution, or the effective date of such share split or share combination, as the case may
be.

 Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after (i) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or
distribution or (ii) the date on which such split or combination becomes effective, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 12.02(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the new Base Conversion
Rate shall again be adjusted to the Base Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (b) If the Company distributes to all holders of its Common Stock any rights or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a period of not more than 45 days after the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution, shares of Common Stock at a price
per share less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, the Base Conversion Rate will
be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	 OS0 +
X
 OS0 + Y

  

					
	 where,
	 		 	
	CR0	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	CR’	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	X	 	=	 	the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or warrants; and
			
	Y	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the
10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

  

 69 

 For purposes of this Section 12.02(b), in determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the Holders to
subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than the average of the applicable Last Reported Sale Prices, and in determining the aggregate exercise or conversion price payable for such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into
account any consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. If any
right or warrant described in this Section 12.02(b) is not exercised or converted prior to the expiration of the exercisability or convertibility thereof, the new Base Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Base Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such right or warrant had not been so issued. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 12.02(b) shall become effective immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution. 
 (c) If the Company distributes shares of Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all holders of the
Common Stock, excluding: 
 (i) dividends or distributions referred to in clause (a) or (b) above; 
 (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash; and 
 (iii) Spin-Offs to which the provisions set forth below in this clause (c) shall apply; 
 then the Base Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	       SP0      
 SP –
FMV

  

					
	where,	 		 	
	CR0	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	CR’	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	SP0	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such
distribution; and

  

 70 

					
	FMV	 	=	 	the average of the Fair Market Values (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property distributed with respect to each
outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.

 Such adjustment shall become effective immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable distribution.

 With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this clause (c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution on the Common Stock of
shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit (a “Spin-Off”), the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately before 5:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off will be increased based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	 FMV0 +
MP0
         MP0

  

					
	 where,
	 		 	
	 CR0
	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off;
			
	 CR’
	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off;
			
	 FMV0
	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the first 10
consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the effective date of the Spin-Off; and
			
	 MP0
	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately following, and including, the effective date of the
Spin-Off.

 Such adjustment shall occur immediately after the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the
effective date of the Spin-Off provided that, for purposes of determining the Base Conversion Rate, in respect of any conversion during the ten Trading Days following the effective date of any Spin-Off, references within the portion of this clause
(c) related to “Spin-Offs” to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the effective date of such Spin-Off and the relevant Conversion Date. 
  

 71 

 If any such dividend or distribution described in this clause (c) is declared but not paid or made, the new Base
Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Base Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all holders of Common Stock, the Base Conversion Rate will be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	     SP0    
 SP0 – C

  

					
	where,	 		 	
	CR0	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	CR’	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	SP0	 	=	 	the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
			
	C	 	=	 	the amount in cash per share of Common Stock of the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock.

 An adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate made pursuant to this clause (d) shall become effective immediately
after the Ex-Dividend Date for the applicable dividend or distribution. If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (d) is declared but not so paid or made, the new Base Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Base Conversion
Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for 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 Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on
the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Base Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula: 
  

			
	CR’ = CR0 x	 	 AC + (SP’xOS’)

      OS0 x SP’

  

 72 

					
	 where,
	 		 	
	CR0	 	=	 	the Base Conversion Rate in effect at the close of business on the last Trading Day of the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or
exchange offer expires;
			
	CR’	 	=	 	the new Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately following the last Trading Day of the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or
exchange offer expires;
			
	AC	 	=	 	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
			
	OS0	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer;
			
	OS’	 	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the expiration of such tender or exchange offer (after giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares pursuant to such
tender or exchange offer); and
			
	SP’	 	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer
expires.

 The adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate under this clause (e) shall become effective immediately following
the tenth Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires; provided that, for purposes of determining the Base Conversion Rate, in respect of any conversion during the ten Trading Days following the date that any
tender or exchange offer expires, references within this clause (e) to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the date such tender or exchange offer expires and the relevant
Conversion Date. If the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer but are permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are
rescinded, the new Base Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Base Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.02, no adjustment will be made thereunder, nor shall an adjustment be made to the ability of a Holder to convert, for any distribution described
therein if the Holder will otherwise participate in the distribution without conversion of such Holder’s securities as if such Holder held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Base Conversion Rate plus the Incremental
Share Factor, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of the Securities held 

  

 73 

 
by such holder, without having to convert its Securities. Further, if the application of the foregoing formulas in this Section 12.02 would result in a
decrease in the Base Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate will be made (except on account of share combinations). 
 (g) No adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate will be made unless as specifically set forth in this Section 12.02 and Section 12.03. Further, in the event of an adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate pursuant to
Section 12.02(d) or Section 12.02(e), in no event will the Base Conversion Rate exceed 40 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Securities (subject to adjustment pursuant to clauses (a) (b) or (c) above). For
the avoidance of doubt, this cap on the Base Conversion Rate will not apply to an adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 12.02(a), Section 12.02(b) and Section 12.02(c). 
 (h) Without limiting the foregoing, no adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate need be made: 
 (i) 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 shares of Common Stock under any plan; 
 (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program or employee stock
purchase plan of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; 
 (iii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common
Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (ii) above and outstanding as of the Issue Date; 
 (iv) for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or 
 (v) for accrued and unpaid Interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any). 
 (i) No adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate will be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% of the Base
Conversion Rate. If the adjustment is not made because the adjustment does not change the Base Conversion Rate by at least 1%, then the adjustment that is not made will be carried forward and taken into account in any future adjustment. All required
calculations will be made to the nearest cent or 1/1000th of a share, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Securities are called for 

  

 74 

 
redemption, all adjustments not previously made will be made for all the Securities to be converted after the Company’s notice of redemption to the
applicable Redemption Date. 
 (j) Whenever the Base Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in accordance with this Section 12.02, the
Incremental Share Factor shall, effective on the date of adjustment of the Base Conversion Rate, be adjusted by multiplying the Incremental Share Factor prior to adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Base Conversion Rate as so
adjusted and the denominator of which is the Base Conversion Rate prior to adjustment. 
 (k) Whenever the Base Conversion Rate and
Incremental Share Factor is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share
Factor after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any adjustment of the Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share Factor and may assume that the last Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share Factor of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such
certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share Factor setting forth the adjusted Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share Factor and the date on which each adjustment becomes
effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Base Conversion Rate and Incremental Share Factor to the Holder of each Security at such Holder’s last address appearing on the Securities Register provided for in Section 2.05
of this Indenture within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment. 
 (l) For purposes of this Section 12.02, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of
scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. If the Company pays any dividend or makes any distribution on, or issues any rights, options or warrants in respect of, shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company,
the Company shall not issue, transfer or convey such shares of Common Stock in a manner that would have the effect of circumventing the provisions of this Section 12.02. 
 (m) Whenever any provision of this Article 12 requires a calculation of an average of Last Reported Sale Prices over a span of multiple days, the Company
will make appropriate adjustments (determined in good faith by the Board of Directors) to account for any adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate 

  

 75 

 
that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, at any time during
the period from which the average is to be calculated. 
 Section 12.03. Adjustment to Common Stock Delivered Upon Certain
Fundamental Changes. (a) If a Holder elects to convert Securities pursuant to Section 12.01(a)(iv) above in connection with a Fundamental Change on or following the effective date of the transaction and the transaction has an effective
date occurring on or prior to December 1, 2011, subject to Section 12.04 below, the Applicable Conversion Rate for such converted Securities shall be increased by an additional number of shares of Common Stock (the “Additional
Shares”) as described below. Any conversion will be deemed to have occurred in connection with such Fundamental Change if such Securities are surrendered for conversion on or following the effective date of a Fundamental Change and prior to
the expiration of the time during which Securities may be converted in respect of such Fundamental Change as specified in Section 12.01(a)(iv) and notwithstanding the fact that a Security may then be convertible because another condition to
conversion also has been satisfied. 
 (b) The number of Additional Shares will be determined by reference to the table attached as Schedule
A hereto, based on the actual effective date on which the Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and the Stock Price paid per share of Common Stock with respect to such Fundamental Change;
provided that if the Stock Price is between two Stock Price amounts set forth in such table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the number of Additional Shares will be determined by a straight-line interpolation
between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Price amounts and the two dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year; provided further that if the Stock Price is greater than $200.00 per share (subject to
adjustment as set forth in clause (c) below) or less than $43.96 per share (subject to adjustment as set forth in clause (c) below), then no Additional Shares will be added to the Applicable Conversion Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Applicable Conversion Rate shall not exceed 22.7480 per $1,000 principal amount of Securities on account of adjustments pursuant to this Section 12.03, subject to adjustments set out in Section 12.02(a) through (e). 
 (c) The Stock Prices set forth in the first row of the table in Schedule A hereto will be adjusted as of any date on which the Base Conversion Rate of
the Securities is otherwise adjusted pursuant to Section 12.02. The adjusted Stock Prices will equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Base Conversion Rate
immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Base Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in such table will be adjusted in the same manner as the Base Conversion Rate as set forth in
Section 12.02. 
  

 76 

 Section 12.04. Conversion After a Public Acquirer Change of Control. (a) In the event of
a Public Acquirer Change of Control, the Company may, in lieu of increasing the Applicable Conversion Rate by Additional Shares pursuant to Section 12.03 above and in lieu of application of Section 12.05, elect to adjust the Conversion
Obligation such that from and after the Effective Date of such Public Acquirer Change of Control, Holders shall be entitled to convert their Securities, subject to the conditions in Section 12.01(a), into a number of shares of Public Acquirer
Common Stock, still subject to the Company’s right to elect to deliver cash and shares of Common Stock and the arrangements for payment upon conversion as set forth under Section 12.01 above. If the Company shall make such election in the
manner described below, from and after the effect time of such Public Acquirer Change of Control: 
 (i) the Base Conversion
Rate will be adjusted by multiplying the Base Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to such transaction by a fraction (1) the numerator of which will be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the five
consecutive Trading Days prior to but excluding the Effective Date of such Public Acquirer Change of Control, and (2) the denominator of which will be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Public Acquirer Common Stock for the five
consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the Effective Date of such Public Acquirer Change of Control; 
 (ii) the Incremental Share Factor will be adjusted by proportionately adjusting the Incremental Share Factor immediately prior to such transaction on the same basis as the Base Conversion Rate; and 
 (iii) the Applicable Stock Price will be based upon the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Public Acquirer Common Stock. 
 (b) In order to make the election pursuant to this Section 12.04, the Company and the issuer of the Public Acquirer Common Stock shall execute with
the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that each Security shall be convertible into Public Acquirer Common Stock and execute an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement (to the extent any Registrable Securities (as defined therein)
remain outstanding) to make the provisions thereof apply to the Public Acquirer Common Stock. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for provisions and adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the provisions and
adjustments provided for in this Article 12 as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company or such issuer (which shall be conclusive). 
  

 77 

 (c) At least 15 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the expected Effective Date of a Fundamental Change
that is also a Public Acquirer Change of Control, the Company will provide a notice to all Holders, the Trustee and the Paying Agent stating whether the Company (i) elects to adjust the Base Conversion Rate, the Incremental Share Factor and the
related Conversion Obligation as set forth in this Section 12.04 or (ii) does not elect to so adjust the Base Conversion Rate, the Incremental Share Factor and the related Conversion Obligation, in which case the Holders will have the
right to convert Securities and, if applicable, receive Additional Shares as set forth in Section 12.03. 
 Section 12.05.
Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications, and Changes of Common Stock. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.04, if any of the following events occur: (i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination to which Section 12.02(a) applies), (ii) any consolidation, merger, binding share exchange or combination of the Company with another Person, or (iii) any
sale or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in each case as a result of which Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other
property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event or transaction, a “Reorganization Event”), then, following the effective time of the Reorganization Event, the right to receive shares of Common Stock
upon conversion of Securities, if any, will be changed into a right to receive the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (the “Reference
Property”) that a Holder would have been entitled to receive upon such Reorganization Event in respect of Common Stock, as provided below. If the Reorganization Event causes Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive more than a
single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), the Reference Property will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that
affirmatively make such an election. The Company will notify Holders of the weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. Upon such Reorganization Event, the Company or any Successor Company will enter into a supplemental
indenture consistent with the foregoing. Such supplemental indenture shall provide for provisions and adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the provisions and adjustments provided for in this Article 12, Article 10
and Article 11 and the definition of Fundamental Change, as appropriate, as determined in good faith by the Company (which determination shall be conclusive and binding), to make such provisions apply to such other Person if different from the
original issuer of the Securities. 
 (b) Following the effective time of any such Reorganization Event, settlement of Securities converted
shall be in units of Reference Property or cash and units of Reference Property, if applicable, determined in accordance with 

  

 78 

 
Section 12.01(d)(i) and Section 12.01(d)(ii) above. The Applicable Conversion Rate will relate to units of Reference Property (a “unit”
of Reference Property being the kind and amount of reference property that a holder of one share of Common Stock would have received in such transaction); and the Applicable Stock Price will be determined based on Last Reported Sale Prices of one
unit of Reference Property. 
 (c) Any issuer of securities included in the Reference Property shall execute an amendment to the Registration
Rights Agreement (to the extent any Registrable Securities (as defined therein) remain outstanding) to make the provisions thereof applicable to such securities included in the Applicable Consideration. 
 (d) The Company shall cause notice of the execution of any supplemental indenture required by this Section 12.05 to be mailed to each Holder, at its
address appearing on the Securities Register provided for in Section 2.05 of this Indenture, within 20 calendar days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of such supplemental
indenture. 
 (e) The above provisions of this Section 12.05 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events. 
 (f) If this Section 12.05 applies to any event or occurrence, Section 12.02 shall not apply in respect of such event or occurrence. 

(g) The Company shall not become a party to any Reorganization Event unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing. None of the foregoing
provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Securities to convert the Securities as set forth in and subject to Section 12.01 prior to the effective time of such Reorganization Event. 
 Section 12.06. Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or
responsibility to the Company or any Holder of Securities to determine when the Securities become convertible, the Base Conversion Rate, or whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Base Conversion Rate, or with respect to the
nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or
amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities or property, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Security; and the Trustee and any other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto.
Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any cash or shares of 

  

 79 

 
Common Stock or stock certificates or other securities or property upon the surrender of any Security for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of
the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article 12. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of
any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 12.05 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their
Securities after any Reorganization Event or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of Section 8.01, may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected
in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate with respect thereto. 
 Section 12.07. Stockholder Rights Plan. To the extent
that the Company has a rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Securities into Common Stock, the Holder will receive upon conversion of the Securities in respect of which the Company has elected to deliver Common Stock, if applicable, the
rights under the rights plan, unless prior to any conversion, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case, and only in such case, the Base Conversion Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to
all holders of Common Stock shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness or assets as described in Section 12.02(c) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such
rights. In lieu of any such adjustment, the Company may amend such applicable stockholder rights agreement to provide that upon conversion of the Securities the Holders will receive, in addition to the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the
rights which would have attached to such Common Stock if the rights had not become separated from the Common Stock under such applicable stockholder rights agreement. 
 Section 12.08. No Stockholder Rights. For the avoidance of doubt, Holders of Securities will not have any rights as holders of Common Stock (including voting rights and rights to receive any dividends or
other distributions on the Common Stock) if and until the Securities are converted into shares of Common Stock. 
 Section 12.09.
Withholding Taxes for Adjustments in Conversation Rate. If the Company pays withholding taxes on behalf of a Holder as a result of an adjustment to the Base Conversion Rate, the Company may, at its option, set off such payments against payments
of cash and shares of Common Stock on the Securities.

 TERMS OF SECURITIES 
 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 
 The Company issued this Security under an Indenture dated
as of December 6, 2006 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, the “Indenture”), among the Company and the Trustee, to which reference is hereby made for a description of
the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders. Additional Securities may be issued under the Indenture in an unlimited aggregate principal amount subject to certain
conditions specified in the Indenture. 
 1. Interest 
 Goodrich Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to
pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate of 3.25% per annum until (but excluding) December 1, 2026. 
 The
Company will pay interest semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing June 1, 2007, to Holders of record on the immediately preceding May 15 and
November 15. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Securities or, if no interest has been paid, from December 6, 2006. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve 30-day months. 
 2. Contingent Interest 
 Subject to the accrual and record date provisions described above, the Company will pay Contingent Interest to the Holders of the Securities during any six-month period from an Interest Payment Date to, but excluding,
the following Interest Payment Date, commencing with the six-month period beginning on December 1, 2011, if the Trading Price of the Securities for each of the five Trading Days ending on the third Trading Day immediately preceding the first
day of the relevant six-month period equals 120% or more of the principal amount of the Securities. 
 The amount of Contingent Interest
payable per each $1,000 principal amount of Securities with respect to any six-month period will equal 0.50% per annum of the average Trading Price of the Securities for the five Trading Days referred to above. 
  

 A-3 

 Upon determination that Holders of the Securities will be entitled to receive Contingent Interest that
will become payable during a relevant six-month period, on or prior to the start of such six-month period, the Company will provide notice to the Trustee setting forth the amount of contingent interest per $1,000 principal amount of the Securities
and disseminate a press release through a public medium that is customary for such press releases. 
 The Company may cause to be withheld
from any payment hereunder any tax withholding required by law or regulations, including, in the case of any withholding obligation arising from income that does not give rise to any cash or property from which any applicable withholding tax could
be satisfied, set off against any subsequent payment of cash or property hereunder. 
 The Company may unilaterally increase the amount of
Contingent Interest it may pay or pay interest or other amounts it is obligated to pay, but the Company will have no obligation to do so. 
 3. Method of Payment 
 By no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date on which any principal of, interest (including
Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) or premium, if any, on any Security is due and payable, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay such amount. The Company will pay principal, premium and interest in
money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and
Additional Interest, if any) and premium, if any) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will pay principal of Definitive Securities at the office or agency
designated by the Company for such purpose. Interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any), on Definitive Securities will be payable (i) to Holders having an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check
mailed to the Holders of these Securities and (ii) to Holders having an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000, either by check mailed to each Holder or, upon application by a Holder to the Registrar not later than the relevant
record date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States, which application shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Registrar to the contrary. 
 4. Redemption 
 Subject to certain conditions
specified in the Indenture, the Securities will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at any time on or after December 1, 2011 and at a price equal to 

  

 A-4 

 
100% of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any)
to but excluding the Redemption Date (unless the Redemption Date is between a Regular Record Date and the Interest Payment Date to which it relates, in which case the Company will pay accrued and unpaid interest to the Holder of record on such
Regular Record Date). 
 5. Purchase by the Company at the Option of the Holder; Purchase at the Option of the Holder Upon a Fundamental
Change 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, a Holder shall have the option to require the Company to purchase all or a
portion of its Securities held by such Holder on each of December 1, 2011, December 1, 2016 and December 1, 2021 at a Purchase Price specified in the Indenture. 
 (b) If a Fundamental Change shall occur at any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option and subject to the terms and
conditions of the Indenture, to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of its Securities at a Fundamental Change Purchase Price specified in the Indenture. 
 6. Conversion 
 Subject to the procedures for conversion set forth in the Indenture, a Holder may convert its
Securities on or prior to November 1, 2026 only when one or more of the conditions specified in the Indenture are met and during the related specified period. On or after November 1, 2026, a Holder may convert its Securities until the
close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding Stated Maturity regardless of such conditions specified in the Indenture. 
 The initial Base Conversion Rate is 15.1653 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Securities, subject to adjustment in certain events described in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will either (i) deliver
shares of Common Stock based on the Applicable Conversion Rate or (ii) pay cash and shares of Common Stock, if any, as set forth in the Indenture. The Company shall deliver cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock. 
 A Holder may convert a portion of the Securities only if the principal amount of such portion is $1,000 or a multiple of $1,000. No payment or adjustment
shall be made for dividends on the Common Stock except as provided in the Indenture.

 7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 
 The Securities are in registered form without coupons in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and 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 or transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The
Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange of Securities (i) so selected for redemption or, if a portion of any Security is selected for redemption, the portion thereof selected for redemption; (ii) surrendered for conversion
or, if a portion of any Security is surrendered for conversion, the portion thereof surrendered for conversion; or (iii) in certificated form for a period of 15 days prior to mailing a notice of redemption under Article 6 of the Indenture.

 8. Persons Deemed Owners 
 The
registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 
 9. Unclaimed Money 
 If money for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional Interest, if any) remains unclaimed for
two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company, subject to applicable abandoned property laws. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.

 10. Amendment, Waiver 
 Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture contains provisions permitting an amendment of the Indenture or the Securities with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding
Securities and the waiver of any Event of Default (other than with respect to nonpayment or in respect of a provision that cannot be amended without the written consent of each Holder affected) or noncompliance with any provision with the written
consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities. 
 In addition, the Indenture permits an
amendment of the Indenture or the Securities without the consent of any Holder under certain circumstances specified in the Indenture. 
  

 A-6 

 11. Defaults and Remedies 
 Subject to the following paragraph, if an Event of Default specified in the Indenture occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the
Securities by notice to the Company to be due and payable immediately. In addition, certain specified Events of Default will cause the Securities to become immediately due and payable without further action by the Holders. 
 The sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with the reporting obligations under Article 5 of the Indenture,
and for any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 314(a)(1) of the TIA, will for the 365 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the principal amount
of the Securities at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum. 
 Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in
the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee
in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in payment of principal, interest (including Contingent Interest and Additional
Interest, if any) or premium, if any) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 
 12. Trustee Dealings with the Company

 Subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture, 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. 
 13. No Recourse Against Others 
 An incorporator, director, officer, employee, Affiliate or stockholder of the Company, solely by reason of this status, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities, 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.

 Exhibit 10.25 
 Goodrich Petroleum Corporation 
 Annual Bonus Plan 
 Section 1. Purpose of Plan 
 The purpose of the
Plan is to promote the success of the Company by providing annual bonus incentives to participating Executives. 
 Section 2. Definitions

 The following words and phrases as used herein shall have the following meanings unless a different meaning is plainly required by the
context: 
 “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company. 
 “Bonus” means a cash payment or payment opportunity as the context requires. 
 “Bonus Criteria” means the performance criteria and guidelines adopted by the Board for a Performance Period. The Bonus Criteria may
include, without limitation, one or more business components, weightings of the components as to results achieved, comparisons with peer groups or indexes, and such other criteria and factors as the Board may deem appropriate. 
 “Committee” means the Compensation Committee of the Board. 
 “Company” means Goodrich Petroleum Corporation and any successor. 
 “Executive” means an individual who is a key employee of the Company or an affiliate of the Company. 
 “Participant” means an Executive selected or approved to participate in the Plan by the Committee. 
 “Performance Period” means each fiscal year of the Company. 
 “Plan” means the Annual Bonus Plan
of the Company, as amended from time to time. 
 Section 3. Administration of the Plan 
 3.1 The Committee. The Plan shall be administered by the Board and the Committee, as provided herein. 
 3.2 Powers of the Committee. Subject to the further provisions herein, the Committee shall have the authority to determine the Executives who will
participate in the Plan with respect to a Performance Period and shall otherwise be responsible for the general administration of the Plan. In this regard, the Committee shall have the authority to construe and interpret the Plan and any agreement
or other document relating to any Bonus under the Plan, may adopt rules and regulations governing the administration of the Plan, and shall exercise all other duties and powers conferred on it by the Plan, or which are incidental or ancillary
thereto. 

 3.3 Express Authority to Change Terms and Conditions of a Bonus. Without limiting the
Committee’s authority under any other provision of the Plan, with the approval of the Board the Committee shall have the authority to accelerate a Bonus, to waive restrictive conditions for a Bonus, and to alter or modify the Bonus Criteria for
a Performance Period at any time in such circumstances as the Board or Committee deems appropriate. 
 Section 4. Bonus Provisions 
 4.1 Selection of Participants. Based on the recommendation of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Committee shall determine, before or
as soon as reasonably practical after the beginning of each Performance Period, those Executives who will participate in the Plan for that Performance Period. The Chief Executive Officer shall be a participant each Performance Period unless the
Committee provides otherwise. 
 4.2 Effect of Mid-Year Commencement of Service. If services as an Executive commence after the
beginning of a Performance Period, the Board, based on the Committee’s recommendation, in its discretion, may grant a Bonus to such Executive and also may adjust the Performance Criteria for such Executive in such manner as the Board deems
appropriate to reflect the actual period of service of the Executive during the Performance Period. 
 4.3 Determination of Bonus
Amounts. The Board shall determine the standard or formula pursuant to which each Participant’s Bonus shall be calculated based on the Bonus Criteria and the amount to be paid to each Participant based on the level of achievement of the
Bonus Criteria. The Board, based on the Committee’s recommendation, may also at any time establish additional conditions and terms of the payment of Bonuses as it may deem desirable and may take into account such factors as it deems appropriate
in administering any aspect of the Plan. The Board, based on the Committee’s recommendation may, in its sole discretion, increase or decrease a Participant’s Bonus for a Performance Period based on such factors, including subjective
factors, as the Board deems appropriate, including paying no Bonus at all notwithstanding the level of achievement of the Bonus Criteria for the Performance Period. 
 4.4 Board Certification. No Participant shall receive any Bonus payment under the Plan with respect to a Performance Period until the Board has approved such payment. 
 4.5 Time of Payment. Any Bonuses payable under the Plan shall be paid as soon as practicable following the Board’s approval of such payment,
but not later than March 15 following the end of the Performance Period. Such payments shall be in cash, subject to applicable tax withholding requirements. 
 4.6 Employment Requirement. Unless the Board provides, a Participant shall not have a right to receive a Bonus unless such Participant remains an employee of the Company or an affiliate on the date the payment
of the Bonus for the Performance Period is approved by the Board.

 Section 5. General Provisions 
 5.1 No Right to Bonus or Continued Employment. Neither the establishment of the Plan nor the provision for or payment of any amounts hereunder nor any action of the Company (including, for purposes of this
Section 5.1, any predecessor or subsidiary), the Board or the Committee in respect of the Plan, shall be held or construed to confer upon any person any legal right to receive, or any interest in, a Bonus, or any right to be continued in the
employ of the Company or any affiliate of the Company. The Company expressly reserves any and all rights to discharge an Executive in its sole discretion, without liability of any person, entity or governing body under the Plan or otherwise.

 5.2 Discretion of Board or Committee. Any decision made or action taken by the Board or the Committee arising out of or in
connection with the creation, amendment, construction, administration, interpretation and effect of the Plan shall be within the absolute discretion of the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, and shall be conclusive and binding upon all
persons. No member of the Board or the Committee shall have any liability for actions taken or omitted under the Plan by the member or any other person. 
 5.3 No Funding of Plan. The Company shall not be required to fund or otherwise segregate any cash or any other assets for payment to Participants under the Plan. The Plan shall constitute an
“unfunded” plan of the Company. The Company shall not, by any provisions of the Plan, be deemed to be a trustee of any property, and any obligations of the Company to any Participant under the Plan shall be those of a debtor and any rights
of any Participant or former Participant shall be limited to those of a general unsecured creditor. 
 5.4 Non-Transferability of Benefits
and Interests. Except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, no Bonus that is payable under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, and any such
attempted action be void and no such benefit shall be in any manner liable for or subject to debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any Participant or former Participant. 
 5.5 Law to Govern. All questions pertaining to the construction, regulation, validity and effect of the provisions of the Plan shall be determined
in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas. 
 5.6 Non-Exclusivity. The Plan does not limit the authority of the Company, the
Board or the Committee, or any affiliate of the Company, to grant awards or authorize any other compensation under any other plan or authority. In addition, Executives not selected to participate in the Plan may participate in other plans of the
Company or its affiliates. 
 Section 6. Amendments, Suspension or Termination of Plan 
 The Board may from time to time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, and if suspended or terminated, may at any time reinstate any or
all of the provisions of the Plan.
