			(ii)     any Notes in certificated form having a principal amount of less than $2,000,000, by check mailed to the address of the Person in whose name such Notes are registered as it appears in the Register; and
		

		
			(iii)     any Notes in certificated form having a principal amount of $2,000,000 or more, by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the election of the Holder of such Notes duly delivered to the Securities Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date. 
		

		
			Interest on the Notes shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If an Interest Payment Date (or any other payment date with respect to the Notes) is not a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest shall accrue thereon with respect to such delay. 
		

		
			Payments of principal or interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on the Notes that are not made when due will accrue interest at the then-applicable interest rate on the Notes from the required payment date.
		

		
			Section 2.04.     Execution and Authentication. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			15

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			One Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. If an Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Note, the Note shall be valid nevertheless. 
		

		
			A Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee manually authenticates the Note. Upon receipt of an Authentication Order, the Trustee shall authenticate a Note executed by the Issuer. The signature of the Trustee on the Note shall be conclusive evidence that the Note has been duly and validly authenticated under this Indenture. 
		

		
			The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent reasonably acceptable to the Issuer to authenticate the Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument signed by a Responsible Officer, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Issuer. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an authenticating agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as any Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for service of notices and demands. 
		

		
			Section 2.05.     Registrar and Paying Agent. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (the “Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment (the “Paying Agent”). The Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator shall be considered as one such office or agency of the Issuer for each of the aforesaid purposes. The Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes (the “Register”) and of their transfer and exchange. The Issuer 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-registrars. The Issuer initially appoints the Securities Administrator as (i) Registrar in connection with the Notes, (ii) the custodian with respect to the Global Notes and (iii) Exchange Agent. 
		

		
			The Issuer may enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefore pursuant to Section 7.07. The Guarantor or any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (including the Issuer) that is not a Foreign Subsidiary may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. 
		

		
			The Issuer 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 (1) acceptance of an appointment by a successor as evidenced by an appropriate agreement entered into by the Issuer and such successor Registrar or Paying Agent, as the case may be, and delivered to the Trustee or (2) notification to the Trustee that the Trustee shall serve as Registrar or Paying Agent until 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			16

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			the appointment of a successor in accordance with clause (1) above. The Registrar or Paying Agent may resign at any time upon written notice; provided, however, that the Trustee may resign as Paying Agent or Registrar only if the Trustee also resigns as Trustee in accordance with Section 7.09. 
		

		
			The place of payment with respect to the Notes shall be the City of New York, and the Company hereby initially appoints the Securities Administrator as its Paying Agent in the City of New York, at its Corporate Trust Office in such city, as specified in Section 13.02, the intention of the Company being that the Notes shall at all times be payable in the City of New York.
		

		
			 
		

		
			For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Trustee (or its agents), the Paying Agent or the Exchange Agent shall have any obligation to determine any Trading Prices, market prices, the occurrence of any distribution or the occurrence of any event permitting an exchange or requiring an adjustment to the Exchange Rate.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 2.06.     Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. 
		

		
			Prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Maturity Date, each Interest Payment Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or Redemption Date and any settlement date of an Exchange Obligation, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent (or if the Issuer or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Issuer is acting as Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto) a sum sufficient to pay such amounts owed on such dates. The Issuer 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 money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of amounts owed on such dates and shall notify the Trustee in writing of any Default by the Issuer in making any such payment. If the Guarantor or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Guarantor (including the Issuer) acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Issuer at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. 
		

		
			Section 2.07.     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. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Issuer 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. 
		

		
			Section 2.08.     Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			17

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(a)     The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office the Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonably prompt period of time. 
		

		
			Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Notes to the Registrar or any co-registrar, and satisfaction of the requirements for such transfer set forth in this Section 2.08, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. 
		

		
			Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.02. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding. 
		

		
			All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
		

		
			All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, repurchase or conversion shall (if so required by the Issuer or the Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer, and the Notes shall be duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
		

		
			No service charge shall be made to any Holder for any registration of, transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Issuer or the Trustee may require payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes. 
		

		
			Neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any Registrar shall be required to exchange, issue or register a transfer of (a) any Note or portions thereof surrendered for exchange pursuant to Article 10 or (b) any Note or portions thereof tendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) pursuant to Article 3. 
		

		
			(b)     The following provisions shall apply only to Global Notes: 
		

		
			(i)     Each Global Note authenticated under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof or custodian for the Global Notes therefor, and each such Global Note shall constitute a single Note for all purposes of this Indenture.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			18

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(ii)     Unless the Issuer and the applicable Holder agree, notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part for Notes registered, and no transfer of a Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary or a nominee thereof unless: 
		

		
			(A)     the Depositary has notified the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Note and a successor Depositary has not been appointed within 90 calendar days;
		

		
			(B)     the Depositary has ceased to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor Depositary has not been appointed within 90 calendar days; or
		

		
			(C)     an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and the beneficial owner requests that its Notes be issued in physical, certificated form. 
		

		
			(iii)     In addition, certificated Notes shall be issued in exchange for beneficial interests in a Global Note upon request by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures following the request of a beneficial owner seeking to enforce its rights under the Notes or this Indenture, including its rights following the occurrence of an Event of Default.
		

		
			(iv)     Notes issued in exchange for a Global Note or for any portion of a Global Note pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above shall be issued in definitive, fully registered form, without interest coupons, shall have an aggregate principal amount equal to that of such Global Notes or portion thereof to be so exchanged, shall be registered in such names and be in such authorized denominations as the Depositary shall designate and shall bear any legends required hereunder. Any Global Notes to be exchanged shall be surrendered by the Depositary to the Trustee, as Registrar; provided that pending completion of the exchange of a Global Note, the Trustee acting as custodian for the Global Notes for the Depositary or its nominee with respect to such Global Notes, shall reduce the principal amount thereof, by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the books and records of the Trustee. Upon any such surrender or adjustment, the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery the Notes issuable on such exchange to or upon the written order of the Depositary or an authorized representative thereof.
		

		
			(v)     In the event of the occurrence of any of the events specified in clause (ii) above or upon any request described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer shall promptly make available to the Trustee a sufficient supply of certificated Notes in definitive, fully registered form, without interest coupons.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			19

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(vi)     Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depositary (the “Agent Members”) nor any other Persons on whose behalf Agent Members may act shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Notes registered in the name of the Depositary or any nominee thereof, and the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee as the absolute owner and holder of such Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Trustee or any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depositary, its Agent Members and any other Person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Notes. 
		

		
			(vii)     At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been repurchased, converted, cancelled or exchanged for Notes in certificated form, such Global Note shall, upon receipt thereof, be cancelled by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator in accordance with standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the custodian for the Global Note. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is repurchased, converted, cancelled or exchanged for Notes in certificated form, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the standing procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the custodian for the Global Note, be appropriately reduced, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the custodian for the Global Note, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction. 
		

		
			(c)     Every Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) that bears or is required under this Section 2.08(c) to bear the Restricted Note Legend (together with any Common Shares issued upon exchange of the Notes and required to bear the Restricted Common Shares Legend, collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.08(c) (including those set forth in the Restricted Note Legend and the Restricted Common Shares Legend) unless such restrictions on transfer shall be waived by written consent of the Issuer following receipt of legal advice supporting the permissibility of the waiver of such transfer restrictions, and the holder of each such Restricted Security, by such holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 2.08(c), the term “transfer” means any sale, pledge, loan, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security or any interest therein. Until the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the last date of the original issuance of the Notes, or such shorter period of time as permitted by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereunder, and (2) such later date, if any, as may be required by applicable laws, any certificate evidencing a Restricted Security shall bear the Restricted Note Legend (or in the case of Common Shares issued upon exchange of the Notes, the Restricted Common Shares Legend), unless such Restricted Security has been sold pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective under the Securities Act (and which continues 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			20

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			to be effective at the time of such transfer) or sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any similar provision then in force, or unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer in writing as set forth above, with written notice thereof to the Trustee. After the Resale Restriction Termination Date applicable to any Note, the Restricted Note Legend shall be deemed removed from such Note.
		

		
			(d)     In connection with any transfer of the Notes prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date, the Holder must complete and deliver the form of assignment set forth on the certificate representing the Note, with the appropriate box checked, to the Trustee (or any successor Trustee, as applicable). 
		

		
			Any Notes that are Restricted Securities and as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms or as to conditions for removal of the Restricted Note Legend set forth therein have been satisfied may, upon surrender of such Notes for exchange to the Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.08, be exchanged for a new Note or Notes, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by Section 2.08(c). If such Restricted Security surrendered for exchange is represented by a Global Note bearing the Restricted Note Legend, the principal amount of the legended Global Notes shall be reduced by the appropriate principal amount and the principal amount of a Global Note without a Restricted Note Legend shall be increased by an equal principal amount. If a Global Note without the Restricted Note Legend is not then outstanding, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver an unlegended Global Note to the Depositary. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date. 
		

		
			Any Common Shares issued upon exchange of the Notes as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such Common Shares for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Shares, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of Common Shares, which shall not bear the Restricted Common Shares Legend. 
		

		
			(e)     Any Note or Common Shares issued upon exchange of a Note that are repurchased or owned by any Affiliates of the Issuer or the Guarantor may not be resold by such Affiliate unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Note or Common Shares, as the case may be, no longer being a “restricted security” (as defined in Rule 144). The Issuer will cause any Note that is repurchased or owned by the Issuer or any controlled “Affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144) to be surrendered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation as described under Section 2.12.
		

		
			(f)     The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Agent Members or any other Person with respect to the accuracy of the books or records, or the acts or omissions, of the Depositary or its nominee or of any participant or member thereof, with respect to any ownership interest in the Notes or with respect to the delivery 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			21

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			to any Agent Member or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice or the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Notes. All notices and communications to be given to the Holders of Notes and all payments to be made to Holders of Notes under the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders of Notes (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Notes shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject to the customary procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect to its Agent Members.
		

		
			(g)     The Trustee and the Securities Administrator 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 Notes (including any transfers between or among Agent Members) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the terms of this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.  Neither the Trustee, the Securities Administrator nor any Agent Member shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary.
		

		
			Section 2.09.     Replacement Notes. 
		

		
			If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Issuer shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Holder takes the following actions and satisfies the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code: 
		

		
			(a)     notifies the Issuer or the Trustee in writing within a reasonable time after he has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and prior to the Registrar registering a transfer of such Note;
		

		
			(b)     makes a request to the Issuer or the Trustee in writing for a replacement Note prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code (a “protected purchaser”); and
		

		
			(c)     satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Issuer or the Trustee, including the requirements set forth in the following paragraph. 
		

		
			Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Registrar from any loss, expense, claim or liability that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced and subsequently presented or claimed for payment. The Issuer and the Trustee may charge the Holder for their expenses in replacing a Note. In case any Note which has matured or is about to mature or has been validly tendered for repurchase on a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or (and not validly withdrawn), or is to be exchanged or redeemed, shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			22

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			may, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or exchange or authorize the exchange of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or exchange shall furnish to the Issuer, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or in connection with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Issuer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Exchange Agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Notes and of the ownership thereof. 
		

		
			Every replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer. 
		

		
			The provisions of this Section 2.09 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Notes. 
		

		
			Section 2.10.     Outstanding Notes. 
		

		
			Notes outstanding at any time are all Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for those cancelled by the Securities Administrator, those delivered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. Subject to Section 2.12, a Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Guarantor or an Affiliate of the Guarantor holds the Note. 
		

		
			If a Note is replaced pursuant to Section 2.09, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee and the Issuer receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a protected purchaser. 
		

		
			If the Paying Agent segregates and holds in trust, in accordance with this Indenture, on a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, Redemption Date or Maturity Date money sufficient to pay all principal and interest payable on that date with respect to the Notes (or portions thereof) to be repurchased or maturing, as the case may be, and the Paying Agent is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, then on and after that date such Notes (or portions thereof) cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. 
		

		
			Section 2.11.     Temporary Notes. 
		

		
			Pending the preparation of Notes in certificated form, the Issuer may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an Authentication Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Notes in certificated form, but with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Issuer. Any such temporary Notes shall be executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Notes in certificated form. Without 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			23

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Notes in certificated form and thereupon any or all temporary Notes may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes in certificated form. Such exchange shall be made by the Issuer at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Notes in certificated form authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
		

		
			Section 2.12.     Repurchase and Cancellation. 
		

		
			The Issuer may, to the extent permitted by law, repurchase any Notes in the open market or by tender offer at any price or by private agreement, whether by the Issuer, the Guarantor or their respective Subsidiaries, including pursuant to cash-settled swaps or derivatives. Any Notes repurchased by the Issuer or the Guarantor (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or derivatives) will be surrendered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation, but such Notes may not be reissued or resold by the Issuer or the Guarantor. Any Notes surrendered for cancellation to the Securities Administrator may not be reissued or resold and shall be promptly cancelled by the Securities Administrator in accordance with its standard procedures and not considered “outstanding” under this Indenture. 
		

		
			Section 2.13.     Defaulted Interest. 
		

		
			Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is not paid when the same becomes due and payable and such nonpayment continues for a period of 30 calendar days, shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date, and such defaulted interest and interest (to the extent lawful) on such defaulted interest at the annual rate borne by the Notes (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) shall be paid by the Issuer at its election, in each case, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below: 
		

		
			(a)     The Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date (as defined below) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee and the Securities Administrator in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date (not less than 30 calendar days after such notice) of the proposed payment (the “Special Interest Payment Date”), and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee or the Securities Administrator 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 and the Securities Administrator 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 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			24

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than fifteen calendar days and not less than ten calendar days prior to the Special Interest Payment Date and not less than ten calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall promptly notify the Issuer of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Issuer, shall promptly cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date and Special Interest Payment Date therefor to be given to each Holder, not less than ten calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date 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 Notes (or their respective predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b).
		

		
			(b)     The Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee and the Securities Administrator.
		

		
			(c)     Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.13, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of, transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Note. 
		

		
			Section 2.14.     CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. 
		

		
			The Issuer in issuing the Notes 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 repurchase 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 Notes or as contained in any notice of a repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Securities Administrator in writing of any changes to the “CUSIP” or “ISIN” numbers of the Notes. 
		

		
			Article 3
REPURCHASE OF NOTES
		

		
			Section 3.01.     Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change. 
		

		
			(a)     In the event any Fundamental Change shall occur prior to the Maturity Date, each Holder shall have the right, at the Holder’s option, to require the Issuer to repurchase any or all of such Holder's Notes (or portions thereof that are integral 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			25

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			multiples of $1,000 of principal amount), on a date specified by the Issuer in the Fundamental Change Issuer Notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”), which shall be no later than 35 Trading Days and no earlier than 20 Trading Days after the date of the Fundamental Change Issuer Notice, at a purchase price payable in cash (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, Additional Interest and Additional Amounts owed, if any, to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; provided that if such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, then the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holders of record of the Notes on the applicable Regular Record Date instead of the Holders surrendering the Notes for repurchase.
		

		
			(b)     The Issuer, or at its request (which must be received by the Trustee at least three Business Days prior to the date the Trustee is requested to give such notice as described below) the Trustee or its agent in the name of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall mail to all Holders of record of the Notes a notice (a “Fundamental Change Issuer Notice“) of the occurrence of a Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right arising as a result thereof on or before the 30th day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change.  The Issuer shall deliver a copy of the Fundamental Change Issuer Notice to the Trustee.
		

		
			(c)     Repurchases of Notes under this Section 3.01 shall be made upon:

			(ii)     delivery or book-entry transfer of the Notes to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements) and prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Expiration Time, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor; provided, that such Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be so paid pursuant to this Section 3.01 only if the Notes so delivered to the Paying Agent shall conform in all respects to the description thereof in the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. 
		

		
			The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice shall state: 
		

		
			(A)     with respect to Global Notes, the appropriate Depositary information and, with respect to certificated Notes, the certificate numbers, if any, of the Notes to be tendered for repurchase;

			Payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for Notes for which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered and not withdrawn is conditioned upon book-entry transfer or delivery of the Notes, together with necessary endorsements, to the Paying Agent. Payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for the Notes shall be made on the later of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the time of book-entry transfer or delivery of the Notes, as the case may be. 
		

		
			All questions as to the validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of any Notes for repurchase shall be determined by the Issuer, whose determination shall be final and binding absent manifest error. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 3.01 shall have the right to withdraw such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Expiration Time by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 3.02 below (or in the case of Notes held in book-entry form in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable procedures).

			(xii)     that a Holder shall be entitled to withdraw its election in the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Expiration Time, by means of a letter or facsimile transmission (receipt of which is confirmed and promptly followed by a letter) setting forth the name of such Holder, a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have Notes purchased by the Issuer on such Fundamental Change Repurchase Date pursuant to a repurchase upon a Fundamental Change, the certificate number(s) of such Notes to be so withdrawn, if such Notes are certificated Notes, the principal amount of the Notes of such Holder to be so withdrawn, which amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof and the principal amount, if any, of the Notes of such Holder that remain subject to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice delivered by such Holder in accordance with this Section 3.01, which amount must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof;

			(xiv)    the CUSIP number or numbers, as the case may be, of the Notes. 
		

		
			No failure of the Issuer to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the repurchase rights of Holders or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 3.01. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			28

		

 

		

			 

		

		

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

		
			Section 3.02.     Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice.

			If the Paying Agent holds on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date cash sufficient to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of the Notes that Holders have elected to require the Issuer to repurchase in accordance with Section 3.01, then, as of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date:

			Section 3.05.     Covenant to Comply with Securities Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes.
		

		
			In connection with any repurchase upon a Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall, to the extent applicable, (i) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may be applicable at the time of the offer to repurchase the Notes, and any such compliance resulting from changes to such rules made after the Issue Date that conflicts with the requirements of this Indenture shall be deemed to comply with this Indenture; (ii) file a Schedule TO or any other schedule required under the Exchange Act if applicable at the time of the offer to repurchase the Notes; and (iii) comply with all other federal and state securities laws in connection with the Issuer’s repurchase of the Notes. 
		

		
			Article 4
COVENANTS 
		

		
			Section 4.01.     Payment of Notes. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall promptly pay the principal of and interest on the Notes on the dates and in the manner provided in the Notes and in this Indenture. Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent holds in accordance with this Indenture money sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate specified therefor in the Notes, and, to the extent lawful, it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the rate and in the manner specified in Section 2.13. 
		

		
			Section 4.02.     Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall maintain an office or agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or for exchange or repurchase and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. As of the date of this Indenture, such office is located at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator and, at any other time, at such other address as the Trustee or Securities Administrator may designate from time to time by notice to the Issuer provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation under Section 4.02 to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York where any Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment. The Issuer shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of the location, and any change in the location, of such office 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			30

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			or agency not designated or appointed by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation under Section 4.02 to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York where any Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment. If at any time the Issuer shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee or the Securities Administrator with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator. 
		

		
			 
		

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

		
			Section 4.03.     Reports; Rule 144A Information. 
		

		
			(a)     The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee, within 15 calendar days after the Guarantor is required to file the same with the SEC (taking into account any applicable grace periods provided thereunder), copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the SEC may by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Guarantor is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (excluding any such information, document or reports, or portions thereof, subject to confidential treatment and any correspondence with the SEC). The filing of these reports with the SEC through its EDGAR database within the time periods for filing the same under the Exchange Act (taking into account any applicable grace periods provided thereunder) shall satisfy the Issuer’s obligation to furnish such reports to the Trustee. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing if the Guarantor fails to file any such reports. The Trustee shall have no responsibility to determine whether such filing of these reports has occurred. In the absence of such notification, the Trustee shall be entitled to presume that such filings were made. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Issuer’s or the Guarantor’s compliance with any of its respective covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates). 
		

		
			(b)     The Issuer and the Guarantor shall, so long as any of the Notes or any Common Shares issuable upon exchange thereof will, at such time, constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, promptly, upon written request, provide to the Trustee, any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any Common Shares issuable upon exchange of such Notes the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (to the extent such information is not available in the EDGAR database) to facilitate the resale of such Notes or Common Shares pursuant to Rule 144A.

			Section 4.04.     Existence. 
		

		
			Except (i) as set forth in Article 5, (ii) in respect of Fundamental Changes and (iii) as otherwise permitted hereunder, the Issuer and the Guarantor shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect their respective existence and rights (charter and statutory); provided that neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be required to preserve any such right if the Issuer or the Guarantor shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Issuer or the Guarantor and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
		

		
			Section 4.05.     Compliance Certificate. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 calendar days after the end of each fiscal year of the Guarantor an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer, stating whether or not, to the knowledge of such Officer, any Default or Event of Default occurred during such period (if continuing) and if so, describing each Default or Event of Default, its status and the action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 
		

		
			Section 4.06.     Notification of Rule 144 Additional Interest or Reporting Additional Interest.
		

		
			If Rule 144 Additional Interest or Reporting Additional Interest, as applicable, is payable by the Issuer, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Rule 144 Additional Interest or Reporting Additional Interest, as applicable, that is payable and (ii) the date on which payment of such Rule 144 Additional Interest or Reporting Additional Interest, as applicable, shall commence. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Rule 144 Additional Interest or Reporting Additional Interest, as applicable, is payable. 
		

		
			Section 4.07.     Payment of Additional Amounts. 
		

		
			(a)     Unless otherwise required by law, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor (including, for the purposes of this Section 4.07, any successor to the Issuer or the Guarantor) shall deduct or withhold from payments and deliveries made with respect to the Notes and the Guarantee, including, but not limited to, payments of principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Redemption Price), payments of interest and payments of cash and/or deliveries of Common Shares or other Reference Property, if any, upon exchange, on account of any present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature (including, without limitation, penalties and interest and other similar liabilities related thereto) (“Taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of any political subdivisions or taxing authorities in having the power to tax.  The Issuer or the Guarantor shall withhold or deduct any Taxes as required by applicable law. In the event that any such payment or delivery by or on behalf of the Issuer or the Guarantor is subject to withholding or deduction on account of any Bermuda Taxes due from any such payment or delivery 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			32

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			made under or with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee, as the case may be, the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay Additional Amounts so that the net amount received by each Holder of Notes will equal the amount that such Holder would have received if the Bermuda Taxes had not been required to be withheld or deducted.  The amounts that the Issuer or the Guarantor are required to pay to preserve the net amount receivable by the Holders of the Notes are referred to as “Additional Amounts.”
		

		
			(b)     Additional Amounts, however, shall not be payable with respect to a payment or delivery made to a Holder of the Notes to the extent:
		

		
			(i)     that any Bermuda Taxes would not have been so imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder and Bermuda other than the mere receipt of the payment, the acquisition, ownership or disposition of such Notes or the exercise or enforcement of rights under the Notes, the Guarantee or this Indenture;
		

		
			(ii)     of any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property Taxes imposed with respect to the Notes, except as described below or as otherwise provided in this Indenture;
		

		
			(iii)     that any such Bermuda Taxes would not have been imposed but for the presentation of the Notes, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which the payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the beneficiary or Holder thereof would have been entitled to Additional Amounts had the Notes been presented for payment on any date during such 30-day period; or
		

		
			(iv)     that the Holder would not be liable or subject to such withholding or deduction of Bermuda Taxes but for the failure to make a valid declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption such Holder is legally entitled to make, if:
		

		
			(A)     the making of the declaration or claim is required or imposed by statute, treaty, regulation, ruling or administrative practice of the relevant taxing authority as a precondition to an exemption from, or reduction in, the relevant Taxes; and
		

		
			(B)     at least 60 days prior to the first payment date with respect to which the Issuer or the Guarantor shall apply this clause, the Issuer or the Guarantor shall have notified all Holders of the Notes in writing that they shall be required to provide this declaration or claim.
		

		
			(c)     the Issuer and the Guarantor will also:
		

		
			(i)     withhold or deduct such Bermuda Taxes as required;
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			33

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(ii)     remit the full amount of Taxes deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with all applicable laws;
		

		
			(iii)     use reasonable efforts to obtain from each relevant taxing authority imposing the Taxes certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any taxes deducted or withheld; and
		

		
			(iv)     upon request, make available to the Holders of the Notes, within 60 days after the date the payment of any Taxes deducted or withheld is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of Tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Issuer and the Guarantor and, notwithstanding the Issuer or the Guarantor’s efforts to obtain the receipts, if the same are not obtainable, other evidence of such payments.
		

		
			(d)     The Issuer or the Guarantor shall pay any stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar taxes and duties, including interest, penalties and Additional Amounts with respect thereto, payable in Bermuda or the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the foregoing (or in any jurisdiction in the case of enforcement) with respect to the creation, issue, offering, enforcement, or retirement of the Notes or the Guarantee or with respect to payments or deliveries on the Notes or the Guarantee (other than, in the case of such taxes with respect to payments or deliveries, any taxes excluded from Additional Amounts as described above).
		

		
			(e)     If payments with respect to the Notes or the Guarantee become subject generally to the taxing jurisdiction of any Territory or any political subdivision or taxing authority having power to tax, other than or in addition to any political subdivision or taxing authority in Bermuda having the power to tax, immediately upon becoming aware thereof the Issuer shall notify the Trustee of such event, and the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay Additional Amounts in respect thereof on terms corresponding to the terms of the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.07 with the substitution for (or, as the case may be, in addition to) the references herein to any political subdivisions or taxing authority in Bermuda having the power to tax with references to that other or additional Territory or any political subdivision or taxing authority having the power to tax to whose taxing jurisdiction such payments shall have become subject as aforesaid. The term “Territory” means for this purpose any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority therein) in which the Issuer or the Guarantor, as the case may be, is incorporated or in which the Issuer or the Guarantor has its place of central management or central control or otherwise resident or doing business for tax purposes or any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority therein) of any Paying Agent.
		

		
			(f)     Whenever there is mentioned in any context the payment of cash and/or delivery of Common Shares or other Reference Property, if any, upon exchange of any Note or the payment of principal of (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price or Redemption Price, if applicable) and interest (including Additional Interest) on, any Note or any other amount payable or deliverable with respect to such Note, such mention 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			34

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts provided for in this Indenture to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.
		

		
			(g)     Notwithstanding anything else stated herein, neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall pay Additional Amounts on account of any income or withholding Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of any political subdivisions or taxing authorities having the power to tax in the United States.
		

		
			Section 4.08.     Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. 
		

		
			The Issuer covenants (to the extent it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law which would prohibit or forgive the Issuer from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time; the Issuer (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 
		

		
			Section 4.09.     Rule 144 Additional Interest. 
		

		
			(a)     If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes offered pursuant to the applicable Offering Memorandum, the Guarantor fails to timely file any document or report that the Guarantor is required to file with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than current reports on Form 8-K), the Issuer shall pay Additional Interest on such Notes at the rate of 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding for each day during such six-month period for which the Guarantor’s failure to file has occurred and is continuing. 
		

		
			(b)     If, and for so long as, the Restricted Note Legend on the Notes has not been removed (or deemed removed pursuant to this Indenture), the Notes are assigned a restricted CUSIP or the Notes are not freely tradable by Holders other than the Issuer’s or the Guarantor’s Affiliates or Persons that were Affiliates of the Issuer or the Guarantor during the immediately preceding three months (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities laws or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), in each case as of the 380th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes offered pursuant to the applicable Offering Memorandum, the Issuer shall pay Additional Interest on such Notes at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of such Notes then outstanding until such Notes are so freely tradable. 
		

		
			(c)     Additional Interest payable in accordance with Section 4.09(a) or (b) (“Rule 144 Additional Interest”) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			35

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(d)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate of any Rule 144 Additional Interest and any Reporting Additional Interest exceed 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes in respect of any period regardless of the number of any such events giving rise to such Additional Interest. 
		

		
			(e)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be required to pay Rule 144 Additional Interest pursuant to  Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b) (x) on any date on which (A) the Guarantor shall have filed a Shelf Registration Statement for the resale of the Notes offered pursuant to the applicable Offering Memorandum with respect to which such Rule 144 Additional Interest is payable and any Common Shares issuable upon exchange of such Notes, (B) such Shelf Registration Statement is effective and usable by holders identified therein as selling security holders for the resale of such Notes and any Common Shares issued upon exchange of such Notes, (C) the holders may register the resale of their Notes under such Shelf Registration Statement on terms customary for the resale of exchangeable securities offered in reliance on Rule 144A and (D) such Notes and/or Common Shares sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement become freely tradable as a result of such sale; or (y) once the Guarantor shall have complied with the requirements set forth in subclause (x) above for a period of one year with respect to the Notes offered pursuant to the applicable Offering Memorandum with respect to which such Rule 144 Additional Interest is payable.    
		

		
			(f)     For the avoidance of doubt, in the event Additional Notes are issued under this Indenture pursuant to Section 2.01, for purposes of determining whether Additional Interest shall be payable pursuant to Section 4.09(a) or Section 4.09(b), or whether such Additional Interest is not payable pursuant to Section 4.09(e) with respect to any Notes issued under this Indenture, all Notes that do not have the same CUSIP number or were not offered by the same Offering Memorandum shall be considered separately.

			Section 6.02.     Acceleration. 
		

		
			If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or Section 6.01(g)) occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee by notice to the Issuer and the Guarantor, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			39

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			outstanding Notes may declare the principal of, Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) on all then outstanding Notes to be due and payable immediately. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(f) or Section 6.01(g) occurs, the principal of, Additional Amounts, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest) on all Notes then outstanding shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration, notice or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

			(b)     all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of the principal of Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.04.
		

		
			No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.
		

		
			If the maturity of the Notes is accelerated pursuant to this Section 6.02, 100% of the principal amount thereof and premium, if any, shall become due and payable plus Additional Amounts, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) to the date of payment.

			If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal of, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
		

		
			The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes 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 to the extent permitted by law. 
		

		
			Section 6.04.     Waiver of Past Defaults.

			(a)     the Issuer’s failure to pay principal of or interest on any Notes when due; 
		

		
			(b)     the Issuer’s failure to exchange any Notes into cash, Common Shares or a combination of cash and Common Shares, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms of this Indenture; 
		

		
			(c)     the Issuer’s failure to pay the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date in connection with a Holder exercising its repurchase rights; or 
		

		
			(d)     the Issuer’s failure to comply with any of the provisions of this Indenture that under 0 cannot be amended without the consent of each Holder affected.

			Section 6.05.     Control by Majority. 
		

		
			The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it hereunder.

			41

			(c)     the Trustee has not instituted this action within 60 calendar days after receipt of such request; and 
		

		
			(d)     during such 60 calendar day period, the Trustee has not received an inconsistent direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. 
		

		
			A Holder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Holder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder (it being understood that the Trustee shall not have any affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). 
		

		
			Section 6.07.     Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal (including payments pursuant to the required repurchase or redemption provisions of the Notes) of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any and interest on the Notes held by such Holder, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Notes or in the event of repurchase, 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. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to enforce its rights of exchange in accordance with the provisions of Article 10, on or after the applicable date for settlement of the Issuer’s Exchange Obligation, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
		

		
			Section 6.08.     Collection Suit by Trustee. 
		

		
			If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(a), Error! Reference source not found. or Error! Reference source not found. occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer or, if applicable, the Guarantor for the whole amount then due and owing (together 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			42

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts provided for in Section 7.07. 
		

		
			Section 6.09.     Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 
		

		
			The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel) and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its Subsidiaries, the Guarantor or their respective creditors or property 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 it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 
		

		
			Section 6.10.     Priorities. 
		

		
			If the Trustee collects any money or property pursuant to this Article 6, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order: 
		

		
			FIRST: to the Trustee for amounts due under this Indenture; 
		

		
			SECOND: to Holders for amounts due and unpaid on the Notes for principal (including payments pursuant to the required repurchase provisions of the Notes) and interest, ratably without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Notes for principal (including payments pursuant to the required repurchase provisions of the Notes), Additional Amounts, if any, and interest or in respect of any Exchange Obligation of the Issuer, respectively; and 
		

		
			THIRD: to the Issuer and Guarantor. 
		

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

		
			Section 6.11.     Undertaking for Costs. 
		

		
			In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			43

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to Sections 6.06 and 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes. 
		

		
			Section 6.12.     Failure to Comply with Reporting Covenant. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, if the Issuer so elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the failure to comply with the reporting obligations in described in Section 4.03(a) hereof, shall, at the Issuer’s option, for the 365 calendar days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default, consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of the Notes (“Reporting Additional Interest”).  Reporting Additional Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes. In the event the Issuer does not elect to pay the Reporting Additional Interest upon an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.12, the Notes shall be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event shall the aggregate of any Reporting Additional Interest and any Rule 144 Additional Interest for any period exceed 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes in respect of such period, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay any such Reporting Additional Interest and any Rule 144 Additional Interest. Reporting Additional Interest shall accrue on all outstanding Notes from and including the date on which an Event of Default relating to a failure to comply with the reporting obligations in Section 4.03(a) first occurs to, but not including, the 365th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which the Event of Default is cured or waived). On such 365th day if such Event of Default is continuing, such Reporting Additional Interest will cease to accrue and the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02 above. This Section 6.12 will not affect the rights of Holders in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default.

The Trustee shall notify the Issuer of any claim for which it may seek indemnity promptly upon obtaining actual knowledge thereof; provided,  however, that any failure so to notify the Issuer shall not relieve the Issuer of its indemnity obligations hereunder. The Issuer shall defend the claim and the indemnified party shall provide reasonable cooperation at the Issuer’s expense in the defense. Such indemnified parties may have separate counsel and the Issuer shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel; provided,  however, that the Issuer shall not be required to pay such fees and expenses if it assumes such indemnified parties’ defense and, in such indemnified parties’ reasonable judgment, there is no conflict of interest between the Issuer and such parties in connection with such defense. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Issuer need not

			(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 is removed by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes and such Holders do not reasonably promptly appoint a successor Trustee, or if the Trustee resigns, is removed by the Issuer or a vacancy otherwise exists in the office of Trustee for any reason (the Trustee in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Trustee), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. 
		

		
			A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Issuer. 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 7.07. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			49

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			If a successor Trustee does not take office within 90 calendar days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee or the Holders of 10% in principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction (at the expense of the Issuer) for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
		

		
			If the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.101, 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, the Issuer’s and the Guarantor’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 
		

		
			Section 7.10.     Successor Trustee by Merger. 
		

		
			If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation 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 Notes 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 Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have. 
		

		
			Section 7.11.     Eligibility; Disqualification. 
		

		
			The Trustee shall at all times satisfy the requirements of Trust Indenture Act § 310(a). The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with Trust Indenture Act § 310(b); provided, however, that there shall be excluded from the operation of Trust Indenture Act § 310(b)(1) any indenture or indentures under which other securities or certificates of interest or participation in other securities of the Issuer or the Guarantor are outstanding if the requirements for such exclusion set forth in Trust Indenture Act § 310(b)(1) are met.

			Section 9.02.     With Consent of Holders. 
		

		
			Except as provided in Section 9.01 or below in this 0, the Issuer, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator may amend or supplement this Indenture or any of the Notes with the consent (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes or a solicitation of consents in respect of the Notes, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Notes then outstanding on equal terms) of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding affected thereby.
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			53

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Upon the request of the Issuer and the Guarantor and upon the filing with the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of evidence of the consent of the Holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of the documents described in Section 9.06, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall join with the Issuer and the Guarantor in the execution of any supplemental indenture entered into to effect any such amendment, supplement or waiver. After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this 0 becomes effective, the Issuer shall send to the Holders of each Note affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to send such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.
		

		
			The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Issuer or the Guarantor with any provision of this Indenture or the Notes (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for such Notes or a solicitation of consents in respect of such Notes, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all Holders of the Notes then outstanding on equal terms), except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest on any Notes or in respect of a provision which under this Indenture cannot be amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Note affected.
		

		
			It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this 0 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.
		

		
			Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 may not: 
		

		
			(a)     extend the final maturity of the principal of any of the Notes;
		

		
			(b)     reduce the principal amount of any of the Notes;
		

		
			(c)     reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest (including Additional Interest), or Additional Amounts, if any, on any of the Notes;
		

		
			(d)     reduce any amount payable on redemption of any of the Notes or upon required repurchase upon a Fundamental Change;
		

		
			(e)     change the currency in which the principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest (including Additional Interest) on any of the Notes is payable;

			number of Common Shares or amount of property, including cash, receivable upon exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture;

			(j)     waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, Additional Amounts, if any, or interest, including Additional Interest, on the Notes. 
		

		
			Section 9.03.     [Reserved.] 
		

		
			Section 9.04.     Revocation and Effect of Consents and Waivers. 
		

		
			A consent to an amendment or a waiver by a Holder shall bind the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or portion of the Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent or waiver is not made on the Note. However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent or waiver as to such Holder’s Note or portion of the Note if the Trustee receives the notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective once both (i) the requisite number of consents have been received by the Issuer or the Trustee and (ii) such amendment or waiver has been executed by the Issuer, the Guarantor and the Trustee. 
		

		
			The Issuer may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to give their consent or take any other action described above or required or permitted to be taken pursuant to this Indenture. If a record date is fixed, then notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, those Persons who were Holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those Persons, shall be entitled to give such consent or to revoke any consent previously given or to take any such action, whether or not such Persons continue to be Holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 calendar days after such record date. 
		

		
			Section 9.05.     Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 
		

		
			If an amendment changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Note to deliver the Note to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Note regarding the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Issuer or the Trustee so determines, the Issuer in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or to issue a new Note shall not affect the validity of such amendment.

			Section 9.06.     Trustee to Sign Amendments. 
		

		
			The Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 9 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 provided with, and (subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02) shall be fully protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 13.04, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Issuer enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (which Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel may contain customary exceptions and qualifications). 
		

		
			Article 10
EXCHANGE OF NOTES 
		

		
			Section 10.01.     Right to Exchange. 
		

		
			Upon compliance with the provisions of this Article 10, a Holder may exchange, at such Holder’s option, all or part of its Notes, in multiples of $1,000, based on the Exchange Rate (the “Exchange Obligation”). Prior to the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding December 15, 2023, Holders shall have the right to exchange their Notes only under the circumstances described in clauses (a) through (e) below. On or after December 15, 2023, a Holder may surrender its Notes for exchange at any time on or prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date without regard to the conditions in clauses (a) through (e) below. In no event may Notes be surrendered for exchange after the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. 
		

		
			(a)     Exchange Upon Satisfaction of Sale Price Condition. All or a portion of a Holder’s Notes may be surrendered for exchange on any date during any fiscal quarter beginning after March 31, 2017 (and only during such fiscal quarter) if the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares was more than 130% of the then current Exchange Price for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of the 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the previous fiscal quarter. 
		

		
			(b)     Exchange Upon Specified Corporate Transactions. If the Guarantor elects to: 
		

		
			(i)     distribute to holders of its Common Shares generally certain rights, options or warrants (or any other security for which a Closing Sale Price must be determined) entitling them to purchase, for a period expiring within 45 calendar days after the declaration date for such distribution, Common Shares at a price per share less than the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution; or 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			56

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(ii)     distribute to holders of its Common Shares generally cash, other assets, securities or rights to purchase securities of the Guarantor, which distribution has a per Common Share value as reasonably determined by the Guarantor’s Board of Directors (or a committee thereof) exceeding 15% of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, 
		

		
			then, in each case, the Issuer shall notify all Holders either (x) at least 45 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex‐Date for any such distribution by notice in writing or (y) at least 10 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex‐Date for such distribution; provided that, if the Issuer provides such notice in accordance with this clause (y) but not in accordance with the immediately preceding clause (x), notwithstanding anything to the contrary under Section 10.02 below or any other provision of this Indenture, the Issuer shall be required to settle all exchanges of Notes with an Exchange Date occurring during the period from, and including, the date of such notice to, and including, the Ex-Date for such distribution using Physical Settlement and the Issuer shall so notify the Holders in such notice in writing. Once the Issuer has given such notice, a Holder may surrender all or a portion of its Notes for exchange at any time until the earlier of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Date or the Issuer’s public announcement that such distribution shall not take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise exchangeable at such time.  No Holder may exercise this right to exchange if such Holder otherwise may participate in the distribution, without exchange, on the same terms as holders of the Common Shares as if such Holder held a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate on the Record Date of such distribution for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes held by such Holder (calculated on an aggregate basis per Holder). 
		

		
			(c)     Exchange Upon a Fundamental Change and Certain Other Corporate Events.  
		

		
			If (1) the Guarantor is a party to a consolidation, merger, amalgamation, binding share exchange or sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of the Guarantor’s property and assets that does not constitute a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, in each case, pursuant to which the Common Shares would be converted into Reference Property or (2) a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change (other than in connection with a Redemption Notice) occurs, in each case, a Holder may surrender Notes for exchange. The Issuer shall notify each Holder, the Trustee and the Exchange Agent (if other than the Trustee) (i) as promptly as practicable following the date the Issuer publicly announces such transaction but in no event less than 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date for any such transaction or (ii) if the Issuer does not have knowledge of such transaction at least 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the anticipated effective date of such transaction, within three Business Days of the date upon which the Issuer receives notice, or otherwise becomes aware, of such transaction, but in no event later than the actual Effective Date of such transaction by notice in writing. In any such case, each Holder will have the right to exchange its Notes at any time beginning 25 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the date the Issuer notifies Holders as being the anticipated Effective Date of the 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			57

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			transaction (or, if later, the Business Day after the Issuer gives notice of such transaction) to, and including the date which is the earlier of (x) the date which is 35 Trading Days after the date that is the actual effective date of such transaction or, in the case of any transaction or event described above that also constitutes a Fundamental Change, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and (y) the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. If any Holder has submitted any or all of its Notes for repurchase in connection with a Fundamental Change, unless such Holder has withdrawn such Notes in a timely fashion, its exchange rights on the Notes so subject to repurchase will expire at the close of business on the second Business Day preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. If any Holder has submitted any Notes for repurchase, such Notes may be exchanged only if such Holder timely submits a withdrawal notice and, if the Notes submitted are evidenced by a Global Note, such Holder complies with appropriate Depositary procedures. 
		

		
			(d)     Exchange Upon Satisfaction of Trading Price Condition. Notes may be surrendered for exchange at any time during the five consecutive Business Day period immediately following any ten consecutive Trading Day period in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by a Holder in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10.01(d), for each Trading Day of such ten Trading Day period was less than 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares for each Trading Day during such ten Trading Day period and the then applicable Exchange Rate. The bid solicitation agent (if other than the Issuer) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Issuer shall have requested such a determination.  The Issuer shall have no obligation to make that request (or, if the Issuer is acting as bid solicitation agent, the Issuer shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes) unless a Holder of Notes requests that the Issuer do so.  If such a Holder provides such request, the Issuer shall instruct the bid solicitation agent (if other than the Issuer) to determine, or, if the Issuer is acting as bid solicitation agent, the Issuer shall determine, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each Trading Day until the minimum Trading Price threshold is exceeded. If (x) the Issuer is not acting as bid solicitation agent, and the Issuer does not so instruct the bid solicitation agent to obtain bids when required, or (y) the Issuer is acting as bid solicitation agent, and it fails to solicit bids when required, then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes will be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares and the applicable Exchange Rate on each Trading Day such failure occurs. The bid solicitation agent (if other than the Issuer), the Exchange Agent and the Trustee shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes.
		

		
			The Issuer shall initially act as the bid solicitation agent.
		

		
			(e)     Exchange Upon Redemption.  If the Issuer calls any Note for a Tax Redemption, then the Holder of such Note may exchange such Note at any time before the close of business on the second Business Day immediately before the related 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			58

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Redemption Date (or, if the Issuer fails to pay the Redemption Price due on such Redemption Date in full, at any time until such time as the Issuer pays such Redemption Price in full).
		

		
			Section 10.02.     Exchange Procedures; Settlement Upon Exchange; No Adjustment for Interest or Dividends; Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares. 
		

		
			(a)     In order to exercise the exchange right with respect to any Notes in certificated form, a Holder must, prior to the deadline for such exchange specified in Section 10.01: 
		

		
			(i)     complete and manually sign a notice of exchange in the form entitled “Exchange Notice” attached to the reverse of such certificated Note (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Exchange Notice”); 
		

		
			(ii)     deliver such Exchange Notice and the certificated Notes to be exchanged to the Exchange Agent at the office of the Exchange Agent; 
		

		
			(iii)     to the extent any Common Shares issuable upon exchange are to be issued in a name other than the Holder’s, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents as may be required by the Exchange Agent; 
		

		
			(iv)     if required pursuant to this Section 10.02(a), pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled; and 
		

		
			(v)      if required pursuant to Section 10.02(g), pay all transfer or similar taxes, if any. 
		

		
			In order to exercise the exchange right with respect to any interest in a Global Note, a Holder must, prior to the deadline for such exchange specified in Section 10.01: 
		

		
			(i)      exchange by book-entry transfer to the Exchange Agent through the facilities of the Depositary and the Exchange Notice must comply with all applicable Depositary procedures; 
		

		
			(ii)     if required pursuant to this Section 10.02(a), pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled; and 
		

		
			(iii)     if required pursuant to Section 10.02(g), pay all transfer or similar taxes, if any. 
		

		
			The date on which the Holder satisfies the foregoing requirements is the “Exchange Date.” The Notes shall be deemed to have been exchanged immediately prior to the close of business on the Exchange Date; provided,  however, that the Person in whose name any Common Shares shall be issuable upon such exchange shall become the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the Exchange Date, in the

			case of Physical Settlement, or the last Trading Day of the relevant Exchange Period, in the case of Combination Settlement except as set forth in Section 10.04. 
		

		
			If a Holder exchanges any Notes after the close of business on the Regular Record Date for an interest payment but on or prior to the open of business on the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the record Holder at the close of business on such Regular Record Date (if other than such Holder) shall receive any interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the exchange.  Such Notes, upon surrender for exchange, must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest that has accrued and shall be paid on the Notes being exchanged on the corresponding Interest Payment Date. However, such Holder is not required to make such payment: 
		

		
			(i)      if such Holder exchanges its Notes following the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; 
		

		
			(ii)      if such Holder exchanges its Notes in connection with a Fundamental Change and the Issuer has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date 
		

		
			(iii)      to the extent of any overdue interest, if overdue interest exists at the time of exchange with respect to such Holder’s Notes; or
		

		
			(iv)      if the Issuer has specified a Redemption Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the third Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date.
		

		
			Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all record Holders of Notes on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date, the Redemption Date and any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date described in (i), (ii) and (iv) above will receive the full interest payment due on the Maturity Date, Redemption Date or Fundamental Change Repurchase Date or other applicable interest payment date regardless of whether their Notes have been exchanged following such Regular Record Date.
		

		
			If a Holder has already delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice pursuant to Section 3.01 with respect to a Note, such Holder may not surrender that Note for exchange until such Holder has validly withdrawn the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 3.02, except as to a portion of such Note that is not subject to such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. 
		

		
			(b)     Subject to this Section 10.02, Section 10.03 and Section 10.05, upon exchange of any Note, the Issuer may, at its election, pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the exchanging Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged either solely cash (“Cash Settlement”), solely Common Shares (other than cash in lieu of any fractional shares) (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and Common Shares (“Combination Settlement”), as set forth in this Section 10.02(b). 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			60

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			All exchanges occurring on or after December 15, 2023 shall be settled using the same Settlement Method. Prior to December 15, 2023, the Issuer shall use the same Settlement Method for all exchanges occurring on the same Exchange Date, but the Issuer shall not have any obligation to use the same Settlement Method with respect to exchanges that occur on different Exchange Dates. However, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any Notes are called for a Tax Redemption, then the Issuer shall specify in the related Redemption Notice the Settlement Method that will apply to all exchanges of Notes with an Exchange Date that occurs on or after the Tax Redemption Notice Date and before the related Redemption Date
		

		
			If the Issuer elects a Settlement Method, the Issuer shall notify Holders so exchanging of such Settlement Method through the Securities Administrator, who shall inform Holders through DTC, no later than the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately following the related Exchange Date (or, in the case of any exchanges occurring on or after December 15, 2023, no later than the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding December 15, 2023). If the Issuer does not timely elect a Settlement Method, the Issuer shall no longer have the right to elect Cash Settlement or Physical Settlement, and the Issuer shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement in respect of its Exchange Obligation, and the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be deemed to be $1,000. If the Issuer elects Combination Settlement but does not timely notify exchanging Holders of the Specified Dollar Amount per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, such Specified Dollar Amount will be deemed to be $1,000.  The Issuer may from time to time change the default Settlement Method by written notice to the Holders.
		

		
			The cash, Common Shares or combination of cash and Common Shares in respect of any exchange of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows: 
		

		
			(i)     if the Issuer elects to satisfy its Exchange Obligation in respect of such exchange by Physical Settlement, the Issuer shall deliver to exchanging Holders in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Exchange Date (and cash in lieu of any fractional share as described in Section 10.02(i)); 
		

		
			(ii)     if the Issuer elects to satisfy its Exchange Obligation in respect of such exchange by Cash Settlement, the Issuer shall pay to exchanging Holders in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged cash in an amount equal to the sum of the Daily Exchange Values for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days in the relevant Exchange Period; and 
		

		
			(iii)     if the Issuer elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its Exchange Obligation in respect of such exchange by Combination Settlement, the Issuer shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to exchanging Holders in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being exchanged, a Settlement Amount equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days in the relevant Exchange Period (and cash in lieu of any fractional share as described in Section 10.02(i)). 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			61

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(c)     Except as described under Section 10.03, Section 10.04 and Section 10.05, if Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement is applicable, the Issuer shall pay and/or deliver the consideration due upon exchange on the third Business Day immediately following the final Trading Day of the related Exchange Period. If Physical Settlement is applicable, the Issuer shall deliver the consideration due upon exchange on the third Business Day immediately following the related Exchange Date (except as otherwise provided in Section 10.04); provided, that, with respect to any Exchange Date with respect to which Physical Settlement applies occurring after December 15, 2023, settlement will occur on the Maturity Date. 
		

		
			(d)     If more than one Note shall be surrendered for exchange at one time by the same Holder, the Exchange Obligation with respect to such Notes, if any, that shall be payable upon exchange shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered. 
		

		
			(e)     In case any certificated Note shall be surrendered for partial exchange, the Issuer shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the certificated Note so surrendered, without charge to such Holder, a new certificated Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unexchanged portion of the surrendered certificated Note. 
		

		
			(f)     Upon the exchange of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee and the Depositary shall reduce the principal amount of such Global Note in their records. 
		

		
			(g)     The issue of stock certificates on exchanges of Notes shall be made without charge to the exchanging Holder of Notes for any taxes or duties in respect of the issue thereof. The Issuer shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of stock in any name other than that of the Holder of any Notes exchanged, and the Issuer shall not be required to issue or deliver any such stock certificate unless and until the Person or Persons requesting the issue thereof shall have paid to the Issuer the amount of such tax or duty or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Issuer that such tax has been paid. 
		

		
			(h)     Except as provided in Section 10.02(a), upon exchange, Holders shall not receive any separate cash payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes. Accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date to the Exchange Date shall be deemed to be paid in full with the payment or delivery, as the case may be, of the cash, Common Shares or a combination thereof, upon exchange, rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. With respect to any exchange with Combination Settlement, accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such exchange.  The Issuer’s payment or delivery to the Holders of the cash, Common Shares or a combination thereof, to be paid upon exchange of the Notes (including any cash payment in lieu of fractional shares) shall be deemed to satisfy the Issuer’s obligation to pay:
		

		
			(i)     the principal amount of the Notes; and
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			62

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(ii)     accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date to the Exchange Date.
		

		
			(i)     The Guarantor shall not issue fractional Common Shares upon exchange of the Notes. If any fractional Common Shares would be issuable upon the exchange of any Note or Notes, the Issuer shall instead pay cash in lieu of fractional shares based on the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the relevant Exchange Date, in the case of Physical Settlement, or on the final Trading Day of the relevant Exchange Period, in the case of Combination Settlement. 
		

		
			(j)     Except as described under Section 10.04, the Issuer shall not make any payment or other adjustment for dividends on any Common Shares issued upon exchange of the Notes. 
		

		
			(k)     The Issuer shall inform the Trustee or the Securities Administrator upon its request if the Notes have become exchangeable under Section 10.01(a).
		

		
			Section 10.03.     Adjustment to Exchange Rate Upon a Make-Whole Fundamental Change. 
		

		
			If and only to the extent (i) a Holder elects to exchange its Notes in connection with a Fundamental Change described in the definition of Fundamental Change (determined after giving effect to any exceptions to or exclusions from such definition, but without regard to the Majority Ownership Exception in the definition of Change in Control) or (ii) the Issuer provides a Redemption Notice in accordance with Section 12.02 (each, a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change”), the Exchange Rate shall be increased by an additional number of Common Shares (the “Additional Shares”). 
		

		
			The number of Additional Shares shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on (x) with respect to a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof, the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective; and (y) with respect to a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition thereof, the Tax Redemption Notice Date (each, a “Make-Whole Effective Date”) and, in either case, the price paid (or deemed paid) per share (the “Share Price”) per Common Share with respect to such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If holders of Common Shares receive only cash as a result of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Share Price will be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the Share Price will be the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Shares on the five Trading Days immediately preceding the Make-Whole Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. The Issuer shall notify Holders of the anticipated Make-Whole Effective Date with respect to a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof at least 35 Scheduled Trading Days prior to such Make-Whole Effective Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not be required to make any adjustment referred to in this Section 10.03 if the Make-Whole Effective Date is after the Maturity Date. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			63

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			An exchange of the Notes by a Holder shall be deemed for purposes of this Section 10.03 to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (i) of the definition thereof only if the Exchange Date occurs on or following the Make-Whole Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change but before the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (as specified in the Fundamental Change Issuer Notice) (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the Majority Ownership Exception, the 25th Trading Day immediately following such Make-Whole Effective Date).  An exchange of Notes by a Holder shall be deemed for purposes of this Section 10.03 to be “in connection with” a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition thereof if the Exchange Date occurs from, and including, the date of the related Redemption Notice (the “Tax Redemption Notice Date”) up to, and including, the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately prior to the related Redemption Date.
		

		
			The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner as and at the same time as the Exchange Rate of the Notes is adjusted pursuant to Section 10.04. The Share Prices set forth in the first row of the table below (i.e., the column headers) shall be simultaneously adjusted to equal the Share Prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Exchange Rate immediately prior to the adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exchange Rate as so adjusted. 
		

		
			The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted:

			provided,  however, that the exact Share Price and Make-Whole Effective Date may not be set forth on the table, in which case, if the Share Price is: 
		

		
			(1)      between two Share Prices in the table or such Make-Whole Effective Date is between two Make-Whole Effective Dates on the table, the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Share Price amount and the two Make-Whole Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 360-day year; 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			64

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(2)      in excess of $75.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner and at the same time as the Share Prices in the table above), no Additional Shares will be added to the Exchange Rate; or 
		

		
			(3)      less than $17.97 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner and at the same time as the Share Prices in the table above), no Additional Shares will be added to the Exchange Rate. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Exchange Rate exceed 55.6483 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Exchange Rate pursuant to Section 10.04.
		

		
			Any exchange of Notes that entitles the exchanging Holder to an adjustment to the Exchange Rate as described in this Section 10.03 shall be settled as described in Section 10.02.
		

		
			Section 10.04.     Adjustment of Exchange Rate. 
		

		
			The Issuer shall adjust the Exchange Rate for the following events: 
		

		
			(a)     If the Guarantor issues Common Shares as a dividend or distribution on Common Shares generally, or if the Guarantor effects a share split or share combination with respect to its Common Shares, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
		

			
					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						OS1

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						OS0

					
					
						 

				

		
			where, 
		

		
			ER1     =     the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution or the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as the case may be; 
		

		
			ER0     =     the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution or the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as the case may be; 
		

		
			OS0     =     the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution or the Effective Date of such share split or share combination; and 
		

		
			OS1     =     the number of Common Shares that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination, as the case may be. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			65

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Any adjustment made under this clause (a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this clause (a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors or a committee thereof determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
		

		
			(b)     If the Guarantor distributes to holders of its Common Shares generally any rights, options or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a period of 45 calendar days or less from the declaration date for such distribution, Common Shares at a price per share less than the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding, but excluding, the declaration date for such distribution, the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
		

			
					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						OS0 + X 

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						OS0 + Y 

					
					
						 

				

		
			where 
		

		
			ER1     =    the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution; 
		

		
			ER0     =    the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution; 
		

		
			OS0     =    the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution; 
		

		
			X         =    the total number of Common Shares issuable pursuant to such rights, options or warrants; and 
		

		
			Y         =    the number of Common Shares equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, options or warrants, divided by the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares on the Trading Day immediately preceding, but excluding, the declaration date for such distribution. 
		

		
			Any increase made under this clause (b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or warrants are distributed and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution. To the extent that Common Shares are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or warrants, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the distribution of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Common Shares actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so distributed, the Exchange Rate shall be 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			66

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			decreased to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Date for such distribution had not occurred. 
		

		
			For purposes of this clause (b) and Section 10.01(b)(i) above, in determining whether any rights, options or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares at a price per share less than such Closing Sale Price on the Trading Day immediately preceding, but excluding, the declaration date for such distribution, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such Common Shares, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Guarantor for such rights, options or warrants and any amount payable upon exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof. 
		

		
			(c)     If the Guarantor distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness or other of its securities, assets or property to holders of Common Shares generally, excluding: 
		

		
			(i)     dividends or distributions described in clause (a) or (b) above; 
		

		
			(ii)    dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash described in clause (d) below; 
		

		
			(iii)   any dividends and distributions in connection with a reclassification, change, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale, lease or other disposition resulting in the change in the exchange consideration as described in Section 10.05;
		

		
			(iv)   except as otherwise described in this Section 10.04, rights issued pursuant to a shareholders’ rights plan adopted by the Guarantor; and
		

		
			(v)    Spin-Offs described below in the fourth paragraph of this clause (c);  
		

		
			then the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
		

			
					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						SP0

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						SP0 – FMV 

					
					
						 

				

		
			where, 
		

		
			ER1     =    the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution; 
		

		
			ER0     =    the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution; 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			67

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			SP0      =    the average Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares over the ten consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding, but excluding, the Ex-Date for such distribution; and 
		

		
			FMV   =    the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof) of the shares of Capital Stock, evidences of Indebtedness, securities, assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding Common Share immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution. 
		

		
			Any increase made under the portion of this clause (c) above shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such distribution. If such distribution is not so paid or made, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), or if the difference between “SP0” and “FMV” is less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares without having to exchange its Notes, the amount and kind of the Capital Stock, evidences of the Guarantor’s indebtedness, or other securities assets or property of the Guarantor that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Ex-Date for the distribution. If the Guarantor issues rights, options or warrants that are only exercisable upon the occurrence of certain triggering events, then the Issuer shall not adjust the Exchange Rate pursuant to this clause (c) until the earliest of those triggering events occurs. In addition, in the case of any distribution of rights, options or warrants, to the extent such rights, options or warrants expire unexercised, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect had the increase made for the distribution of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of Common Shares actually delivered upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants.
		

		
			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 Shares in shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interests, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Guarantor that will be, upon distribution, listed or quoted on a U.S. national or regional securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
		

			
					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						FMV + MP0

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						MP0

					
					
						 

				

		
			where, 
		

		
			ER1    =     Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			68

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			ER0    =     the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off; 
		

		
			FMV  =     the average Closing Sale Price of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Shares applicable to one Common Share (determined by reference to the definition of Closing Sale Price as if references therein to Common Shares were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) for the ten consecutive Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Ex-Date for such Spin-Off (such period, the “Valuation Period”); and 
		

		
			MP0   =     the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Shares over the Valuation Period. 
		

		
			Any adjustment to the Exchange Rate under the preceding paragraph of this clause (c) shall be made immediately after the close of business on the last day of the Valuation Period, but shall be given effect as of the open of business on the Ex-Date for the Spin-Off. Because the Issuer will make the adjustment to the Exchange Rate at the end of the Valuation Period with retroactive effect, the Issuer shall delay the settlement of any Notes where the Exchange Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or the final day of the related Exchange Period (in the case of Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement) occurs during the Valuation Period. In such event, the Issuer shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, any cash, Common Shares or a combination thereof representing the Issuer’s exchange obligation due upon exchange (based on the adjusted Exchange Rate as described above) on the third Business Day immediately following the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period. The Person in whose name the certificate for any Common Shares delivered upon exchange is registered shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 10.04(c) is declared but not so made, the Exchange Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors or a committee thereof determines not to make such distribution, to the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.
		

		
			(d)     If the Guarantor pays any cash dividends or distributions exclusively in cash to holders of its Common Shares generally (other than dividends or distributions made in connection with the Guarantor’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up), other than a regular quarterly cash dividend that does not exceed the Dividend Threshold per Common Share, the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
		

			
					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						SP0 – T 

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						SP0 – C 

					
					
						 

				

		
			where, 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			69

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			ER1     =  the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; 
		

		
			ER0     =  the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; 
		

		
			SP0      =  the average Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares for the ten consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding, but excluding, the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution; 
		

		
			C         =  the amount in cash per share the Guarantor distributes to holders of the Common Shares; and 
		

		
			T         =  an amount (subject to the proviso below, the “Dividend Threshold”) initially equal to $0.06 per common share; provided,  however, that (x) if such dividend or distribution is not a regular quarterly cash dividend on the Common Shares, then the Dividend Threshold will be deemed to be zero per Common Share with respect to such dividend or distribution; and (y) the Dividend Threshold will be adjusted in the same manner as, and at the same time and for the same events for which the Exchange Rate is adjusted as a result of the operation of clauses (a), (b) and (c) above and clause (e) below.
		

		
			Any increase made under this clause (d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Exchange Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors, or a committee thereof, determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution, to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), or if the difference between “SP0” and “C” is less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Common Shares without having to exchange its Notes, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Ex-Date for such cash dividend or distribution. 
		

		
			(e)     If the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, including the Issuer, makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for the Common Shares, other than odd lot tender offers, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Common Share exceeds the average of the Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares over the ten consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last date (the “Expiration Date”) on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Exchange Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
		

		
			
		

		

		 

		

			70

		

 

		

			 

		

	
					
						

					
						 

					
					
						ER1 = ER0 × 

					
					
						AC + (SP1 × OS1)

					
					
						 

				
	
					
						 

					
					
						OS0 × SP1

					
					
						 

				

		
			where, 
		

		
			ER1     =  the Exchange Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; 
		

		
			ER0     =  the Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; 
		

		
			AC      =  the aggregate value, on the Expiration Date, of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors or a committee thereof) paid or payable for shares purchased in such tender or exchange offer; 
		

		
			SP1      =  the average Closing Sale Price of the Common Shares for the ten consecutive Trading Days next succeeding the Expiration Date (the “Averaging Period”); 
		

		
			OS1     =  the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after the close of business on the Expiration Date (after giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer); and 
		

		
			OS0     =  the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date (prior to giving effect to such tender offer or exchange offer). 
		

		
			Any adjustment to the Exchange Rate under this clause (e) shall occur at the close of business on the tenth Trading Day immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date; provided that in respect of any exchange of Notes within the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, references with respect to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed between the Expiration Date and the Exchange Date in determining the Exchange Rate. In addition, if the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date is after the tenth Trading Day immediately preceding, and including, the end of any Exchange Period in respect of an exchange of Notes, references in this clause (e) to 10 Trading Days shall be deemed to be replaced, solely in respect of that exchange, with such lesser number of Trading days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date to, and including, the last day of such Exchange Period.
		

		
			If the Guarantor or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in clause (e) above, but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			71

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			purchases are rescinded, the applicable Exchange Rate shall be readjusted to be the Exchange Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have been effected.
		

		
			(f)     To the extent that any shareholders’ rights plan adopted by the Guarantor is in effect upon exchange of the Notes, Holders will receive, in addition to any Common Shares due upon exchange, the rights under the applicable rights agreement. However, if, prior to any exchange, the rights have separated from the Common Shares in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholders’ rights plan, the Exchange Rate will be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Guarantor distributed to all holders of the Common Shares, shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, securities, assets or property as described in clause (c) above, subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 
		

		
			(g)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Exchange Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Date as described in this Section 10.04, and a Holder that has exchanged its Notes on or after such Ex-Date and on or prior to the related Record Date would be treated as the record holder of the Common Shares as of the related Exchange Date as described under Section 10.02(b) based on an adjusted Exchange Rate for such Ex-Date, then, notwithstanding the foregoing Exchange Rate adjustment provisions, such Exchange Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Date shall not be made for such exchanging Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of such Common Shares on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment. 
		

		
			(h)     In addition, if a Holder exchanges a Note and 
		

		
			(i)     Combination Settlement is applicable to such a Note; 
		

		
			(ii)     the Record Date, Effective Date, or Expiration Date for any event that requires an adjustment to the Exchange Rate under any of Sections 10.04(a) through (e) occurs (x) on or after the first Trading Day (as defined pursuant to the proviso of the definition thereof) of the related Exchange Period and (y) on or prior to the last Trading Day (as defined pursuant to the proviso of the definition thereof) of such Exchange Period; and 
		

		
			(iii)     the Daily Settlement Amount for any Trading Day (as defined pursuant to the proviso of the definition thereof) in such Exchange Period that occurs on or prior to such Record Date, Effective Date or Expiration Date (x) includes Common Shares that do not entitle their holder to participate in such event and (y) is calculated based on an Exchange Rate that is not adjusted on account of such event; 
		

		
			then, on account of such exchange, the Issuer will, on such Record Date, Effective Date or Expiration Date, treat such Holder, as a result of having exchanged such Notes, as though it were the record holder of a number of Common Shares equal to the total number of Common Shares that: 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			72

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(A)     are deliverable as part of the Daily Settlement Amount (1) for a Trading Day (as defined pursuant to the proviso of the definition thereof) in such Exchange Period that occurs on or prior to such Record Date, Effective Date or Expiration Date and (2) is calculated based on an Exchange Rate that is not adjusted for such event; and 
		

		
			(B)     if not for this Section 10.04(h) would not entitle such Holder to participate in such event. 
		

		
			(i)     Adjustments to the Exchange Rate will be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share. 
		

		
			(j)     Except as stated in this Section 10.04 and in Section 10.03, the Issuer shall not adjust the Exchange Rate for the issuances of Common Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares or rights to, purchase Common Shares or such convertible or exchangeable securities. 
		

		
			(k)     Without limiting the foregoing Section 10.04(j), no adjustment to the Exchange Rate need be made: 
		

		
			(i)     upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Guarantor and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Shares under any plan; 
		

		
			(ii)     upon the issuance of any Common Shares or options or rights to purchase Common Shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Issuer); 
		

		
			(iii)     upon the issuance of any Common Shares pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (ii) above and outstanding as of the date of this Indenture; 
		

		
			(iv)     upon the issuance of any Common Shares at a price below the Exchange Price;
		

		
			(v)     upon the repurchase of any Common Shares pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the nature described under Section 10.04(e);
		

		
			(vi)     for a third-party tender offer by any Subsidiary of the Guarantor as described under Section 10.04(e);
		

		
			(vii)     for a change in the par value of the Common Shares; or 
		

		
			(viii)     for accrued and unpaid interest, if any. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			73

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			(l)     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.04, the Exchange Rate shall not be adjusted pursuant to this Section 10.04 if as a result of holding the Notes the Holders shall otherwise participate (other than in the case of a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Shares in any of the transactions that would otherwise give rise to adjustment pursuant to this Section 10.04 without exchange of such Holder’s Notes as if such Holder held a number of Common Shares equal to the applicable Exchange Rate multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.
		

		
			(m)     No adjustment pursuant to this Section 10.04 is required to be made to the Exchange Rate unless such adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the Exchange Rate then in effect at such time. However, any adjustments that are less than 1% of the Exchange Rate shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, (i) with respect to any Notes surrendered for exchange for which the Issuer has elected Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement, on each Trading Day in the relevant Exchange Period and (ii) with respect to any Notes surrendered for exchange for which the Issuer has elected Physical Settlement, on the Exchange Date. 
		

		
			(n)     In addition to those required by Sections 10.04(a) through (e), and subject to compliance with the listing standards of the NYSE, the Issuer from time to time may increase the Exchange Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20 Business Days.  Subject to compliance with the listing standards of the NYSE, the Issuer may also (but is not required to) increase the Exchange Rate to avoid or diminish income tax to holders of Common Shares or rights to purchase Common Shares in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares) or similar event. 
		

		
			(o)     Whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Issuer shall (i) file with the Trustee and with the Exchange Agent an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of computation and (ii) the Issuer shall notify the Holders of the Notes. 
		

		
			(p)     For purposes of this Section 10.04, the number of Common Shares at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Guarantor but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of Common Shares. The Guarantor shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on Common Shares held in the treasury of the Guarantor. 
		

		
			(q)     Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Issuer to calculate the Closing Sale Prices, the volume-weighted average price, the Daily Exchange Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over, or based on, a span of multiple calendar days (including an Exchange Period, Valuation Period or Averaging Period), the Issuer shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Exchange Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Exchange Rate where the Ex-Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when the Closing Sale Prices, the volume-weighted average prices, the Daily Exchange Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

			Section 10.05.     Effect of Reclassifications, Business Combinations, Asset Sales and Corporate Events. 
		

		
			In the case of: 
		

		
			(a)     any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Shares (other than changes in par value or to or from no par value or resulting from a subdivision or combination); 
		

		
			(b)     any consolidation, merger, amalgamation or combination involving the Guarantor; 
		

		
			(c)     any sale, lease or other transfer to a third-party of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Guarantor and its Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety; or 
		

		
			(d)     any statutory share exchange, 
		

		
			in each case, as a result of which the Common Shares would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof), then, at and after the effective time of the transaction, the right to exchange each $1,000 principal amount of Notes will be changed into a right to exchange such principal amount of Notes into, in lieu of Common Shares, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of Common Shares equal to the Exchange Rate immediately prior to such transaction would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property”) upon such transaction. Thereafter, references in this Indenture to Common Shares shall be deemed to apply mutatis mutandis to equivalent units of Reference Property, as nearly as is practical as determined in good faith by the Issuer. However, at and after the effective time of the transaction (i) the Issuer shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon exchange of the Notes as set forth under, and subject to, Section 10.02 above and (ii)(x) any amount otherwise payable in cash upon exchange of the Notes as set forth under Section 10.02 above will continue to be payable in cash, (y) the number of Common Shares, if any, otherwise deliverable upon exchange of the Notes as set forth under Section 10.02 above will instead be deliverable in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Common Shares would have received in such transaction and (z) the volume-weighted average price will be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property that a holder of one Common Share would have received in such transaction. If the transaction causes the Common Shares to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), the Reference Property into which the Notes will become exchangeable will be deemed to be the kind and amount of consideration actually received by holders of a majority of the Common Shares that voted for such an election (if electing between two types of consideration) or holders of a plurality of the Common Shares that voted for such an election (if electing between more than two types of consideration), as the case may be. If 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			75

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			the holders of Common Shares receive only cash in such transaction, then for all exchanges that occur after the effective date of such transaction (i) the consideration due upon exchange of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Exchange Rate in effect on the Exchange Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares as described under Section 10.03), multiplied by the Share Price of Common Shares in such transaction and (ii) the Issuer shall satisfy the Exchange Obligation by paying cash to exchanging Holders on the third Business Day immediately following the Exchange Date.  The Issuer and the Guarantor shall not become a party to any such transaction described in this Section 10.05 unless its terms are consistent with the foregoing.
		

		
			In connection with any transaction described in this Section 10.05, the Issuer shall also adjust the Dividend Threshold based on the number of Common Shares comprising the Reference Property and (if applicable) the value of any non-stock consideration comprising the Reference Property.  If the Reference Property is comprised solely of non-stock consideration, then the Dividend Threshold shall be zero.
		

		
			Section 10.06.     Certain Covenants. 
		

		
			(a)     The Guarantor shall, prior to the issuance of any Notes hereunder, and from time to time as may be necessary, reserve out of its authorized but unissued Common Shares or Common Shares held in treasury, a sufficient number of Common Shares, free of preemptive rights, to permit the exchange of the Notes. 
		

		
			(b)     The Guarantor covenants that all Common Shares issued upon exchange of Notes shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable by the Guarantor and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. 
		

		
			(c)     The Guarantor shall endeavor promptly to comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the issuance and delivery of Common Shares upon the exchange of Notes, if any, and shall cause to have listed or quoted and shall keep listed or quoted all such Common Shares on each U.S. national securities exchange or automatic quotation system or over-the-counter or other domestic market on which the Common Shares are then listed or quoted. 
		

		
			Section 10.07.     Trustee Disclaimer. 
		

		
			The Trustee shall have no duty to determine when or if an adjustment or reclassification under this Article 10 should be made, how it should be made, what any such adjustment or reclassification should be or if any adjustment or reclassification has been performed properly. If any adjustment is made to an Exchange Rate the Trustee may accept as conclusive evidence of that fact or the correctness of any such adjustment, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.04(o) hereof. Unless and until the Trustee receives such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that the Exchange Rate has not been adjusted. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon exchange of the Notes, and the Trustee shall not be 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			76

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			responsible for the Issuer or the Guarantor’s failure to comply with any provision of this Article 10.  
		

		
			Section 10.08.     Surrender to Financial Institution in Lieu of Exchange. 
		

		
			(a)     When a Holder surrenders Notes for exchange and the Exchange Date for such Notes occurs prior to December 15, 2023, the Issuer may, at its election (a “Financial Institution Surrender Election”), direct the Exchange Agent in writing to surrender, on or prior to the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Date, such Notes to a financial institution designated by the Issuer (a “Financial Institution Surrender”) in lieu of exchange.  In order to accept any Notes surrendered for a Financial Institution Surrender, the designated financial institution must agree to timely pay or deliver, as the case may be, in exchange for such Notes, all of the cash, Common Shares or a combination thereof otherwise due upon exchange, all as provided above in Section 10.02 (the “Exchange Consideration”).  If the Issuer makes a Financial Institution Surrender Election, the Issuer shall, by the close of business on the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Date, notify the Holder surrendering its Notes for exchange that the Issuer has made such Financial Institution Surrender Election, and the Issuer shall notify the designated financial institution of the Settlement Method it has elected with respect to such exchange and the relevant deadline for payment or delivery of the relevant Exchange Consideration.
		

		
			(b)     If the designated financial institution accepts any such Notes for a Financial Institution Surrender, it will pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Exchange Consideration to the Exchange Agent, and the Exchange Agent will pay or deliver such Exchange Consideration to such exchanging Holder on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Date.  Any Notes exchanged by the designated financial institution will remain outstanding. If the designated financial institution agrees to accept any Notes for a Financial Institution Surrender but does not timely pay or deliver the related Exchange Consideration, or if such designated financial institution does not accept the Notes for a Financial Institution Surrender, the Issuer shall exchange the Notes and pay or deliver, as the case may be, the Exchange Consideration on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Exchange Date as described above in Section 10.02.  The Issuer’s designation of a financial institution to which the Notes may be submitted for a Financial Institution Surrender does not require such institution to accept any Notes.

			Subject to the provisions of this Article 11, the Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, to the Holders and to the Trustee the full and punctual payment (whether at stated maturity, by declaration of acceleration, upon required repurchase or otherwise) of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, including Additional Interest, and Additional Amounts, if 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			77

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			any, on, and all other amounts payable under, each Note, payments required upon exchange of the Notes and the full and punctual payment of all other amounts payable by the Issuer under this Indenture, when and as they become due and payable, whether at maturity, upon repurchase, by declaration of acceleration or otherwise.  Upon failure by the Issuer to pay punctually any such amount, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in this Indenture. 
		

		
			If an Event of Default occurs with respect to a payment on the Notes, the Holders may institute legal proceedings directly against the Guarantor to enforce the Guarantee without first proceeding against the Issuer.
		

		
			Section 11.02.     Guarantee Unconditional.    
		

		
			The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, will not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by
		

		
			(a)     any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Issuer under this Indenture or any Note, by operation of law or otherwise; 
		

		
			(b)     any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Indenture or any Note;
		

		
			(c)     any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Issuer, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Issuer or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Issuer contained in this Indenture or any Note;
		

		
			(d)     the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person, whether in connection with this Indenture or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein prevents the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
		

		
			(e)     any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Issuer for any reason of this Indenture or any Note, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Issuer of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture; or
		

		
			(f)     any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Issuer, the Trustee or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.
		

		
			Section 11.03.     Discharge; Reinstatement.    
		

		
			The Guarantor’s obligations hereunder will remain in full force and effect until the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and all other amounts payable 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			78

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			by the Issuer under this Indenture have been paid in full.  If at any time any payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment will be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 
		

		
			Section 11.04.         Waiver by the Guarantor. 
		

		
			The Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Issuer or any other Person.  
		

		
			Section 11.05.      Subrogation and Contribution.    
		

		
			Upon making any payment with respect to any obligation of the Issuer under this Article, the Guarantor will be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Issuer with respect to such obligation.
		

		
			Section 11.06.     Stay of Acceleration.    
		

		
			If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Issuer under this Indenture or the Notes is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Indenture are nonetheless payable by the Guarantor forthwith on demand by the Trustee or the Holders.
		

		
			Section 11.07.     Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.    
		

		
			The execution by the Guarantor of this Indenture (or an amended or supplemental indenture as provided in Article 9) evidences the Guarantee of the Guarantor, whether or not the person signing as an officer of the Guarantor still holds that office at the time of authentication of any Note.  The delivery of any Note by the Trustee after authentication constitutes due delivery of the Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantor.
		

		
			Section 11.08.     Release of Guarantee.    
		

		
			The Guarantee will terminate upon defeasance or discharge of the Notes, as provided in Article 8 hereto or upon satisfaction of the conditions in Section 5.02.
		

		
			Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the foregoing effect, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of the Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee.

			Article 12
REDEMPTION UPON A CHANGE IN TAX LAW
		

		
			Section 12.01.     Redemption Upon a Change in Tax Law. 
		

		
			No sinking fund shall be required for the Notes.  The Notes shall not be redeemable by the Issuer prior to the Maturity Date except to the extent set forth in this Article 12. Prior to the Maturity Date, if the Issuer or the Guarantor has, or on the next Interest Payment Date would, become obligated to pay to the Holder of any Note Additional Amounts as a result of any change or amendment that is announced and becomes effective on or after the date of the applicable Offering Memorandum in the laws or any rules or regulations of a relevant taxing jurisdiction or any change that is announced on or after the date of the applicable Offering Memorandum in an interpretation, administration or application of such laws, rules or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental agency, taxing authority or regulatory or administrative authority of such relevant taxing jurisdiction (including the enactment of any legislation and the formal announcement or publication of any judicial decision or regulatory or administrative interpretation or determination) (a “Change in Tax Law”), then the Issuer may, at its option redeem for cash all but not part of the Notes (except in respect of certain Holders that elect otherwise in accordance with Section 12.02) at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”), including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Amounts with respect to such Redemption Price (any such redemption, a “Tax Redemption”); provided that the Issuer may only redeem the Notes if (x) the Issuer or the Guarantor (as applicable) cannot avoid these obligations by taking commercially reasonable measures available to the Issuer or the Guarantor (as applicable) and (y) the Issuer delivers to the Trustee and Securities Administrator an opinion of outside legal counsel of recognized standing in the relevant taxing jurisdiction attesting to such Change in Tax Law and obligation to pay Additional Amounts (which opinion, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be required to include an opinion as to whether “commercially reasonable efforts” could be undertaken to avoid the otherwise applicable obligations) and an Officer’s Certificate attesting to such Change in Tax Law and obligation to pay Additional Amounts. If the Redemption Date occurs after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest and any Additional Amounts with respect to such interest due on such Interest Payment Date to the record Holder of the Notes on the Regular Record Date corresponding to such Interest Payment Date, and the Redemption Price payable to the Holder who presents a Note for a Tax Redemption will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Note, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Amounts with respect to such Redemption Price.
		

		
			Section 12.02.     Notice of Redemption; Selection of Notes. 
		

		
			(a)     If the Issuer exercises its right to redeem all of the Notes pursuant to Section 12.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and it shall send a notice of such Tax Redemption (a “Redemption Notice”) not less than thirty (30) calendar nor more than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the Redemption Date to each 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			80

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Holder of Notes so to be redeemed; provided,  however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Redemption Notice shall be given earlier than 90 calendar days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would, but for such Tax Redemption, be obligated to make payments of Additional Amounts and at the time any such Redemption Notice is given, such obligation to pay such Additional Amounts must remain in effect.  The Redemption Date must be a Business Day.
		

		
			(b)     Each Redemption Notice shall specify:
		

		
			(i)     the Redemption Date;
		

		
			(ii)    the Redemption Price;
		

		
			(iii)     that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note to be redeemed, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after the Redemption Date (except as provided in the definition of Redemption Price with respect to a Redemption Date that falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date);
		

		
			(iv)    the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price;
		

		
			(v)     that Holders may surrender their Notes for exchange at any time prior to the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date;
		

		
			(vi)    the procedures an exchanging Holder must follow to exchange its Notes and the Settlement Method and Specified Dollar Amount, if applicable;
		

		
			(vii)    the Exchange Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to the Exchange Rate in accordance with Section 10.03; and
		

		
			(viii)    the CUSIP, ISIN or other similar numbers, if any, assigned to such Notes.
		

		
			(c)          A Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and will not be subject to conditions, and outstanding Notes will become due and payable at the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date.
		

		
			(d)     Upon receiving a Redemption Notice, each Holder shall have the right to elect to not have its Notes redeemed, in which case the Issuer shall not be obligated to pay any Additional Amounts on any payment with respect to such Notes solely as a result of such Change in Tax Law that resulted in the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts (whether upon exchange, repurchase, maturity or otherwise, and whether in cash, Common Shares, Reference Property or otherwise) after the Redemption Date (or, if the Issuer fails to pay the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date, such later date on which the Issuer pays the Redemption Price), and all future payments with respect to 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			81

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			such Notes will be subject to the deduction or withholding of such relevant taxing jurisdiction taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld as a result of such Change in Tax Law; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Holder electing not to have its Notes redeemed exchanges its Notes, the Issuer shall be obligated to pay Additional Amounts, if any, with respect to such exchange.
		

		
			(e)     A Holder electing to not have its Notes redeemed must deliver to the Trustee a written notice of such election so as to be received by the Trustee prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date; provided that a Holder that complies with the requirements for exchange described under Section 10.02 will be deemed to have delivered a notice of its election to not have its Notes so redeemed. A Holder may withdraw any notice of election (other than such a deemed notice of election) by delivering to the Trustee a written notice of withdrawal prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date (or, if the Issuer fails to pay the Redemption Price on the Redemption Date, such later date on which the Issuer pays the Redemption Price). If no election is made or deemed to have been made, the Holder will have its Notes redeemed without any further action.
		

		
			Section 12.03.     Payment of Notes Called for Redemption. 
		

		
			If any Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with Section 12.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice and at the applicable Redemption Price, except as provided in the definition of Redemption Price with respect to a Redemption Date that falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the immediately succeeding Interest Payment Date.  On presentation and surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be paid and redeemed by the Issuer at the applicable Redemption Price.
		

		
			Section 12.04.     Restrictions on Redemption. 
		

		
			Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes, the Issuer may not redeem any Notes if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated (other than as a result of failure to pay the Redemption Price and any related interest as provided in this Article 12) and such acceleration has not been rescinded on or before the related Redemption Date.

On or before the second Business Day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall provide to all Holders of record on the date of the Fundamental Change at their addresses shown in the Register of the Registrar, the Trustee and the Paying Agent, a written notice of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change and the resulting repurchase right.

Upon exchange, the Issuer shall satisfy its Exchange Obligation in cash, Common Shares or a combination of cash and Common Shares, as the case may be, at the Issuer’s election, in accordance with, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture. The initial Exchange Rate shall be 39.7488 Common Shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment as provided in the Indenture. No fractional Common Shares shall be issued upon any exchange, but an adjustment in cash shall be paid to the Holder, as provided in the Indenture, in respect of any fraction of a share that would otherwise be issuable upon the surrender of any Note or Notes for exchange. No adjustment shall be made for dividends or any shares issued upon exchange of such Note except as provided in the Indenture. 
		

		
			8.      Denominations, Transfer, Exchange    
		

		
			The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

			9.      Persons Deemed Owners    
		

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

		
			10.      Unclaimed Money    
		

		
			Subject to any applicable abandoned property law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall pay to the Issuer upon written request any money held by them for the payment of principal or interest and any Common Shares or other property due in respect of exchanged Notes that remains unclaimed for two years, and, thereafter, Holders entitled to the money and/or securities must look to the Issuer for payment as general creditors. 
		

		
			11.      Amendment Waiver    
		

		
			Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture contains provisions permitting a modification or amendment of the Indenture or the Notes with the written consent or affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes and the waiver of any Event of Default (other than with respect to nonpayment, a failure to satisfy the Exchange Obligation or 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 aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			A-8

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			In addition, the Indenture permits an amendment of the Indenture or the Notes without the consent of any Holder under circumstances specified in the Indenture. The Indenture also permits an amendment of the Indenture or the Notes only with the consent of any Holder affected thereby under circumstances specified in the Indenture. 
		

		
			12.      Defaults and Remedies    
		

		
			Except as specified in the Indenture, if an Event of Default occurs (other than an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer or the Guarantor) and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes to be due and payable. If an Event of Default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer or the Guarantor occurs, the principal amount of the Notes and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding Notes shall automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders. Under certain circumstances, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes may rescind any such acceleration with respect to the Notes and its consequences. 
		

		
			If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. Subject to certain exceptions, no Holder may pursue any remedy with respect to the Indenture or the Notes unless (i) such Holder has given the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default, (ii) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have made a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy and offered security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against any costs, liability or expense of the Trustee, (iii) the Trustee fails to comply with such request within 60 calendar days after receipt of such request and the offer of indemnity and (iv) the Trustee has not received an inconsistent direction from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. Subject to certain restrictions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes are given the right to direct the time, method and place of any proceedings for any remedy available to the Trustee. The Trustee, however, may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or the Indenture or that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability or expense for which the Trustee has not received adequate indemnity as determined by it in good faith; provided,  however, that the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under the Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action. 
		

		
			No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall impair, as among the Issuer and the Holder of the Notes, the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			A-9

		

 

		

			 

		

		

		
			Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the coin or currency herein and in the Indenture prescribed. 
		

		
			13.      Trustee Dealings with the Issuer    
		

		
			Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer, the Guarantor or their respective Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
		

		
			14.     No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders
		

		
			No director, officer, manager, employee, incorporator, stockholder, member or partner of the Issuer or the Guarantor, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guarantor under the Notes or this Indenture for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder, by accepting a Note, waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. 
		

		
			15.      Authentication    
		

		
			This Note shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note. 
		

		
			16.     Abbreviations    
		

		
			Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 
		

		
			17.      GOVERNING LAW    
		

		
			THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
		

		
			18.     CUSIP and ISIN Numbers    
		

		
			Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP and ISIN numbers to be printed on the Notes and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of repurchase as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of repurchase and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

			FORM OF STANDARD
		

		
			STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT
		

		
			NABORS INDUSTRIES, INC.
		

		
			 
		

		
			This Stock Option Agreement (“Agreement”) is effective the ______ day of______, 2017 (“Date of Grant”) between Nabors Industries, Inc. (“NII”), acting on behalf of Nabors Industries Ltd. (“NIL” or the “Company”) and at the request of a subsidiary of NIL (“Subsidiary”), and  [insert employee’s name]  (“Optionee”), an employee of Subsidiary.
		

		
			 
		

		
			WHEREAS, Subsidiary desires to provide a grant of stock options to Optionee, an Eligible Recipient, as an incentive to encourage stock ownership and to remain in the employ of Subsidiary; to enhance the profitability of the Company and the mutuality of interest between Optionee and the Company; and to strengthen and protect the Company’s goodwill; and
		

		
			 
		

		
			WHEREAS, it is agreed between the parties that the stock options shall be governed exclusively by this Agreement and the Nabors Industries Ltd. 2016 Stock Plan (“ Plan”).  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Plan, the Plan shall control.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
		

		
			 
		

		
			1.        Grant of Options:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)        Number of Shares.  NII, at the request of Subsidiary, hereby grants to Optionee in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, the right and option to purchase from NIL all or any part of an aggregate of [insert number of shares] Common Shares (the “Options”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)        Exercise Price.  The Options shall have an exercise price of $           per Common Share, which has been determined to be not less than the Fair Market Value of a Common Share at the Date of Grant.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)        Expiration Date.  The Options shall expire on _____ (the “Expiration Date”).
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)        Vesting.  Optionee’s rights with respect to the Options, subject to the provisions of paragraph 2 below, shall only vest in 4  equal annual installments beginning on the first calendar year anniversary of the Date of Grant.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)        Exercise of Options.  Subject to earlier expiration of the Options as herein provided, the Options may be exercised, by written notice to the Company addressed to the attention of its Corporate Secretary (or such other officer or employee of the Company as the Company may designate from time to time), at any time and from time to time after the Date of Grant hereof, but, except as otherwise provided below, the Options shall not be exercisable for more than a percentage of the aggregate number of Common Shares offered by this Agreement 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

 

		

		
			that are vested, determined in accordance with paragraph 1(d).  Except as provided in paragraph 2(a) and subject to paragraph 2(b), the Options may be exercised only while Optionee remains an employee, officer, director or consultant of Subsidiary and will terminate and cease to be exercisable upon Optionee’s termination of employment or other service relationship with Subsidiary.
		

		
			 
		

		
			2.        Terms and Conditions. The Options are subject to the following terms and conditions:
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)        Effect of Termination of Employment. Subject to paragraph 2(b) below, if Optionee ceases to be an employee, officer, director or consultant of Subsidiary for any reason other than Optionee’s resignation or Termination for Cause,  any outstanding Options vested on the date of Termination may be exercised after Optionee’s date of Termination by Optionee (or in the event of Optionee’s death, Optionee’s heirs, devisees, or legatees) until the earlier of the Expiration Date or 90 days following the date of Termination.  If Optionee ceases to be an employee, officer, director or consultant of Subsidiary due to Optionee’s  Resignation or Termination for Cause, any outstanding options whether vested or unvested shall expire and may not be exercised after Optionee’s date of termination.   In all events, all options that are unvested on and as of the date of termination shall be forfeited.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)        Wrongful Conduct.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Board or any committee of the Board, prior to or following the date Optionee ceases for any reason whatsoever to be an employee, officer, director, or consultant of Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL), and after full consideration of the facts, finds by majority vote that Optionee has engaged in fraud, embezzlement, theft, commission of a felony, dishonesty, or any other conduct inimical to NIL, NII or Subsidiary, Optionee shall forfeit all unexercised Options, whether or not vested and shall return to the Company any gain on Options previously exercised.  The decision of the Board or any committee of the Board shall be final.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			(c)        Solicitation of Employees/Competition.  During the term of employment and for a period of 1 year following Optionee’s Termination of employment with Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL), Optionee agrees that he or she will not (i) individually or on behalf of his or her employer or any other person or entity, directly or indirectly, solicit, divert, or recruit any employee or officer of NIL, NII, Subsidiary, or any of the affiliated companies, or induce any employee of NIL, NII, Subsidiary or any of the affiliated companies, to terminate his or her employment, or (ii) directly or indirectly, as an employee, consultant, principal, agent, trustee or otherwise engage in any business through a corporation, partnership or other entity that competes directly with any business that is conducted by NIL, NII, Subsidiary or any of the affiliated companies (the “Competing Business”) and that (x) Optionee was directly or indirectly engaged in on behalf of NIL, NII, Subsidiary or any of the affiliated companies or (y) Optionee obtained confidential information regarding during the course of his or her employment (the “Restricted Business”).  
		

		
			 
		

		
			Additionally, for a period of 1 year following Optionee’s Termination with Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL), Optionee will not directly or indirectly solicit service or accept competing business from customers of NIL, NII, Subsidiary or any of the affiliated companies 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

 

		

		
			with whom Optionee, within the previous year, (i) had or made contact, or (ii) had access to Confidential Information regarding.  The restrictions in this Section 2(c) are further limited geographically to the following areas where a Competing Business operates in the Restricted Business: any country in which NIL, Subsidiary or any of the other affiliated companies or other subsidiaries of NIL engage in the Restricted Business.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Without limiting the remedies to which NIL, NII, Subsidiary or any affiliated company may be entitled, if the Board of Directors or any committee of the Board, prior to or following the date Optionee ceases, for any reason whatsoever, to be an employee, officer, director, or consultant of Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL) and after full consideration of the facts, find by majority vote that Optionee has engaged in any of the activities mentioned in this Section 2(c),  Optionee shall forfeit all unexercised Options, whether or not vested and shall return to the Company any gain on Options previously exercised.  The decision of the Board or any committee of the Board shall be final.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			“Affiliated companies” as used herein means any entity which now or in the future directly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Company, where “control” in relation to Company means the direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent of the voting securities or shares.   
		

		
			 
		

		
			Company has attempted to place the most reasonable limitations on Optionee’s subsequent employment opportunities consistent with the protection of Company’s valuable trade secrets, business interests, and goodwill.  In order to accommodate Optionee in obtaining subsequent employment, Company may, in its discretion, grant a waiver of one or more of the restrictions on subsequent employment contained in this Section 2(c).  A request for waiver shall be in writing and must be received by the Company at least 45 days before the proposed starting date of the employment for which Optionee is seeking a waiver.  The request must include the full name and address of the organization with which Optionee is seeking employment;  the department or area in which Optionee proposes to work; the position or job title to be held by Optionee; and a complete description of the duties Optionee expects to perform for such employer.  If Company decides to grant a waiver (which decision shall be solely within Company’s discretion), the waiver may be subject to such restrictions or conditions as Company may impose.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(d)        Continuance of Employment.  Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on any individual any right to continue in the employ of Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL) or to interfere in any way with the right of Subsidiary (or any other subsidiary of NIL) to terminate Optionee's employment at any time.  Nothing in this Agreement alters the employment at-will relationship between the parties.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(e)        Non‐Qualified Options.  The options shall be treated as non‐qualified stock options for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			(f)        Governing Terms.  This Agreement is subject to, and Subsidiary and Optionee agree to be bound by, all the terms and conditions of the Plan under which the Options

			4.        Shareholder Rights. Neither Optionee nor Optionee’s heirs, devisees, legal representative, legatees or distributes, as the case may be, shall have any of the rights or privileges of a shareholder of NIL by virtue of the Options except with respect to any Common Shares actually issued or transferred of record and delivered to one of the aforementioned persons.

Except as provided for below, the Plan and all rights and obligations thereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware.  If any provision of this Agreement should be held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall be enforced to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, it being the intent of the parties that invalid or unenforceable provisions are severable, but before such severance occurs, the parties request any court of competent jurisdiction to reform the offending provision to allow it to be enforced in a reasonable fashion.  The parties further intend that the post-employment restrictions set forth in Section 2(c) hereof shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.  
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

 

		

		
			7.        Termination or Modification.  The grant of Options pursuant to this Agreement shall be irrevocable except that NIL shall have the right to revoke them at any time prior to vesting if it is contrary to law or modify it to bring it into compliance with any valid and mandatory law or government regulation. Subject to the foregoing, no modification or waiver of this Agreement or any part hereof shall be valid or effective unless in writing and signed by the parties hereto.  Further, no waiver or breach of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other subsequent breach or conditions, whether of a like or different nature.

The losing party shall bear all the costs of any proceeding including reasonable attorney’s fees.

The place of performance for this Agreement is and shall be Harris County, Texas; and venue for any action to enforce any term of this Agreement by injunctive relief or other provisional remedy (as provided for by Section 9, above) shall lie in Harris County, Texas, or for purposes of Optionee’s obligations under Section 2(c), NIL or Subsidiary may elect to seek such relief in the jurisdiction in which Optionee resides or works at the time suit is filed.
