become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered 
  

 14 

 
to the Purchase Contract Agent and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and
(subject to Section 8.01) conclusive in favor of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner which the Purchase
Contract Agent deems sufficient. 
 (c) The ownership of Purchase Contracts shall be proved by the Security Registrar upon

 (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of
the Holder of any Purchase Contract shall bind every future Holder of the same Purchase Contract and the Holder of such Purchase Contract issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Purchase Contract Agent or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Purchase Contract. 

(e) The Company may set any date as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Purchase Contracts entitled
to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Agreement to be given, made or taken by Holders of Purchase Contracts. If any record date is set pursuant to
this paragraph, the Holders of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action with respect to the Purchase Contracts, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such
record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken prior to or on the applicable expiration date by Holders of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts on such record date. Nothing contained in
this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with
no action by any Person be cancelled and be of no effect), and nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite number of Outstanding Purchase Contracts on the date such action
is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable expiration date to be given to the Purchase
Contract Agent in writing and to each Holder of Purchase Contracts in the manner set forth in Section 1.06. 
 With respect
to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company may designate any date as the “expiration date” and from time to time may change the expiration date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall
be effective unless notice of 
  

 15 

 
the proposed new expiration date is given to the Purchase Contract Agent in writing, and to each Holder of Purchase Contracts in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, prior to or on the
existing expiration date. If an expiration date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the Company shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the expiration date with
respect thereto, subject to its right to change the expiration date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no expiration date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date. 

Section 1.05 Notices. 

Any notice or communication is duly given if in writing and delivered in Person or mailed by first-class mail (registered or certified,
return receipt requested), telecopier (with receipt confirmed) or overnight courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to the others’ address; provided that notice shall be deemed given to the Purchase Contract Agent and/or Trustee, as
applicable, only upon receipt thereof:

Section 1.06 Notice to Holders; Waiver. 

Where this Agreement provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein
expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Security Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Holders. Where this Agreement provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such
notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Purchase Contract Agent, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. 

In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice
by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the written approval of the Purchase Contract Agent shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

 In case any provision in this Agreement or in the Purchase Contracts shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 1.10 Benefits of Agreement. 

Nothing contained in this Agreement or in the Purchase Contracts, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties
hereto and their successors hereunder and, to the extent provided hereby, the Holders, any benefits or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. The Holders from time to time shall be beneficiaries of this Agreement and
shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions hereof and of the Purchase Contracts by their acceptance of delivery of such Purchase Contracts. 

Section 1.11 Governing Law. 

This Agreement, the Units and the Purchase Contracts, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement,
the Units or the Purchase Contracts, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. 

Section 1.12 Conflict Indenture. 

To the extent that any provision of this Purchase Contract Agreement relating to or affecting the Notes conflicts with
or is inconsistent with the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern. 
 Section 1.13 Legal
Holidays. 
 In any case where any Settlement Date shall not be a Business Day, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement or the Purchase Contracts, the settlement of the Purchase Contracts shall not be effected on such date, but instead shall be effected on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Settlement
Date, and no interest or other amounts shall accrue or be payable by the Company or to any Holder in respect of such delay, except that, if such next succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such settlement shall be made on
the immediately preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Settlement Date. 
  

 18 

 Section 1.14 Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts by the parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so
executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 

Section 1.17 Force Majeure. 

In no event shall either of the Purchase Contract Agent or the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the
performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances,
nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that each of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall use
reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 

Section 1.18 Calculations. 

The solicitation of any necessary bids and the performance of any calculations to be made hereunder shall be the sole obligation of the
Company. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determination of the applicable Settlement Rate, the Fixed Settlement Rates, the Early Settlement Rate, the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate, the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate,
the Applicable Market Value, Closing Price and Current Market Price, as the case may be. All calculations made by the Company or its agent hereunder shall be made in good faith and, absent manifest error, be final and binding on the Purchase

to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and each of the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the accuracy of the calculations by the Company or its agent without independent verification, shall
have no liability with respect thereto and shall have no liability to the Holders for any loss any of them may incur in connection with no independent verification having been done. 

Section 1.19 UCC. 

Each Purchase Contract (whether or not included in a Unit) is a security governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in
effect in the State of New York on the date hereof.

The Units and Purchase Contracts shall be in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit A and Exhibit B hereto, respectively, which

the rules of any securities exchange on which the Units or Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, are (or may in the future be) listed or any depositary therefor, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers of the Company
executing such Units and Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, as evidenced by their execution thereof. 
 The Units and
Purchase Contracts shall be issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of a single Unit or Purchase Contract, as the case may be, and any integral multiple thereof. 

Definitive Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved with steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all
as determined by the officers of the Company executing the Units or Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced by such Definitive Securities, consistent with the provisions of this Agreement, as evidenced by their execution thereof.

  

 20 

 Every Global Unit and Global Purchase Contract executed, authenticated on behalf of the
Holders and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend in substantially the following form: 
 “THIS SECURITY IS A GLOBAL
[UNIT / PURCHASE CONTRACT] WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGREEMENT HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO., AS NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (THE
“DEPOSITARY”), THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY. THIS GLOBAL [UNIT / PURCHASE CONTRACT] IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR SECURITIES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED
CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE PURCHASE CONTRACT AGREEMENT AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR
ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY) MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES. 
 UNLESS THIS GLOBAL [UNIT / PURCHASE
CONTRACT] IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY SECURITY ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED
REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR
TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.” 

Section 2.02 Form of Certificate of Authentication. 

The form of certificate of authentication of the Units and Purchase Contracts shall be in substantially the form set forth in the form of
Unit or form of Purchase Contract, respectively, attached hereto. 
 Section 2.03 Global Securities;
Separation of Units. 
 (a) On any Business Day during the period beginning on, and including, the Business Day
immediately succeeding the date of this Agreement to, but excluding, the third Business Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Settlement Date or any Early Mandatory Settlement Date, a Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Unit may separate such Unit
into its 
  

 21 

 
constituent Purchase Contract and Note (each such separated Purchase Contract and separated Note, a “Separate Purchase Contract” and “Separate Note,”
respectively), which will thereafter trade under their respective CUSIP numbers (07556Q 113) and (07556Q 600), and that Unit will cease to exist. Beneficial interests in a Unit, and after separation, the Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note,
will be shown on and transfers will be effected through direct or indirect participants in DTC. Beneficial interests in Units, Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes will be evidenced by Global Units, Global Purchase Contracts and Global
Notes, respectively. In order to separate a Unit into its component parts, a Beneficial Owner must deliver written instruction to the broker or other direct or indirect participant (the “Participant”) through which it holds an
interest in such Unit to notify DTC through DTC’s Deposit/Withdrawal at Custodian System (the “DWAC System”) of such Beneficial Owner’s election to separate such Unit, following which the Purchase Contract Agent or
Trustee, as applicable, shall register (i) a decrease in the Global Unit and the amount of Purchase Contracts and Notes attached to the Global Unit as Attachments 3 and 4, respectively, as set forth in Schedule A to each such attachment, and (ii) a
corresponding increase in the amount of the Global Purchase Contract and Global Note. If, however, such Unit is in the form of a Definitive Security in accordance with Section 3.09, the Holder thereof must deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent
such Unit, together with a separation notice, in the form set forth in Attachment 1 to the form of Unit attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon the receipt of such separation notice, the Company shall promptly cause delivery, in accordance with
the delivery instructions set forth in such separation notice, of one Separate Purchase Contract and one Separate Note for each such Unit. Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes will be transferable independently from each other. 

(b) Holders which elect to separate the Note and related Purchase Contract in accordance with this Section 2.03 shall be responsible
for any fees or expenses payable in connection with such separation, and the Company shall not be responsible for any such fees or expenses. 

Section 2.04 Recreation of Units. 

(a) On any Business Day during the period beginning on, and including, the Business Day immediately succeeding the date of this Agreement
to, but excluding, the third Business Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Settlement Date or any Early Mandatory Settlement Date, a Holder or Beneficial Owner of a Separate Purchase Contract and a Separate Note may recreate a Unit (which will
thereafter trade under the CUSIP number 07556Q 501 for the Units), and each such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note will cease to exist. In order to recreate a Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note into a Unit, a Beneficial Owner
must deliver written instruction to the Participant through which it holds an interest in such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note to notify DTC through the DTC’s DWAC System of such Beneficial Owner’s election to recreate a Unit,
following which the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee, as applicable, shall register (i) an increase in the Global Unit and the amount of Purchase Contracts and Notes attached to the Global Unit as Attachments 3 and 4, respectively, as set forth in
Schedule A to each such attachment, and (ii) a corresponding decrease in the amount of the Global Purchase Contract and Global Note. If, however, such Separate Purchase Contract and Separate Note are in the form of Definitive Securities, the Holder
thereof must deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent such Definitive Securities, together with a recreation notice, in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the form of Unit attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon the receipt of such recreation
notice, the Company shall promptly cause delivery, in accordance with the delivery instructions set forth in such recreation notice, of one Unit in definitive form for such Definitive Securities. 

 

 22 

 (b) Holders that recreate Units in accordance with this Section 2.04 shall be
responsible for any fees or expenses payable in connection with such recreation, and the Company shall not be responsible for any such fees or expenses. 

ARTICLE III 

THE UNITS AND PURCHASE CONTRACTS 

Section 3.01 Amount and Denominations. 

The aggregate number of Units and Separate Purchase Contracts evidenced by Equity-Linked Securities executed, authenticated on behalf of
the Holders and delivered hereunder is limited in each case to 3,000,000 (3,450,000 if the Underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase additional Units pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement), except for Units and Separate Purchase
Contracts executed, authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Units and Separate Purchase Contracts pursuant to Section 3.04, 3.05, 3.10 or 9.05. 

Equity-Linked Securities that are not in the form of Global Securities shall be issuable in denominations of one Equity-Linked Security
and integral multiples in excess thereof. 
 Section 3.02 Rights and Obligations Evidenced by the
Equity-Linked Securities. 
 Each Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the number of Units or Separate Purchase
Contracts, as the case may be, specified therein, with each such Unit and each such Separate Purchase Contract representing the rights and obligations of the Holder thereof and the Company under one Unit or one Separate Purchase Contract,
respectively. 
 Prior to the delivery of shares of Common Stock under each Purchase Contract (whether such Purchase Contract is
held as a component of a Unit or as a Separate Purchase Contract), such Purchase Contract shall not entitle the Holder thereof to any of the rights of a holder of Common Stock, including, without limitation, the right to vote or receive any
dividends or other payments or to consent or to receive notice as a shareholder in respect of the meetings of shareholders or for the election of directors for any other matter, or any other rights whatsoever as a shareholder of the Company.

 Section 3.03 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating. 

 

 23 

 Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and at any time and from time to time
thereafter, the Company may deliver Equity-Linked Securities executed by the Company to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee for authentication on behalf of the Holders and delivery, together with the Issuer Order for authentication of such
Equity-Linked Securities, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate on behalf of the Holders and deliver such Equity-Linked Securities. 

The Equity-Linked Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by any authorized officer of the Company. The signature of any
such officer on the Equity-Linked Securities may be manual or facsimile. 
 Equity-Linked Securities bearing the manual or
facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Equity-Linked
Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Equity-Linked Securities. 
 Each Equity-Linked Security shall be
dated the date of its authentication. 
 No Equity-Linked Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Equity-Linked Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by an authorized officer of the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee by
manual signature, and such certificate upon any Equity-Linked Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Equity-Linked Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. 

Section 3.04 Temporary Equity-Linked Securities. 

Pending the preparation of Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and
Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holders, and deliver, in lieu of such Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, temporary Equity-Linked Securities that are in substantially the form set forth in
Exhibit A or Exhibit B hereto, as the case may be, with such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or endorsements printed, lithographed or engraved thereon as may be required by the rules of
any securities exchange on which the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, are listed, or as may, consistently herewith, be determined by the officers of the Company executing such Equity-Linked Securities, as evidenced by their
execution of the Equity-Linked Securities. 
 If temporary Equity-Linked Securities are issued, the Company will cause
Definitive Equity-Linked Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the 
  

 24 

 
preparation of Definitive Equity-Linked Securities, the temporary Equity-Linked Securities shall be exchangeable for Definitive Equity-Linked Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Equity-Linked Securities at the Corporate Trust Office, at the expense of the Company and without charge to the Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Equity-Linked Securities, the Company
shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, one or more Definitive Equity-Linked Securities of like
tenor and denominations and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, as the temporary Equity-Linked Security or Equity-Linked Securities so surrendered. Until so exchanged, the temporary Equity-Linked
Securities shall in all respects evidence the same benefits and the same obligations with respect to the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, evidenced thereby as Definitive Equity-Linked Securities. 

Section 3.05 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange. 

The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Security Register”) in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Equity-Linked Securities and of transfers of Equity-Linked Securities. The Purchase Contract Agent is hereby initially appointed Security Registrar
(the “Security Registrar”) for the purpose of registration of Equity-Linked Securities and transfers of Equity-Linked Securities as provided herein. The Security Registrar shall record separately the registration and transfer of the
Equity-Linked Securities evidencing Units and Separate Purchase Contracts. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Equity-Linked Security at the Corporate Trust Office, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the designated transferee or
transferees, and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Equity-Linked Securities of any authorized denominations, of like tenor, and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the
case may be. 
 At the option of the Holder, Equity-Linked Securities may be exchanged for other Equity-Linked Securities, of
any authorized denominations and evidencing a like number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, upon surrender of the Equity-Linked Securities to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office. Whenever any Equity-Linked
Securities are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver the Equity-Linked
Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 
 All Equity-Linked Securities issued upon any
registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security shall evidence the ownership of the same number of Units or 
  

 25 

 
Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same obligations, under this Agreement as the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the
case may be, evidenced by the Equity-Linked Security surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 
 Every
Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Purchase Contract Agent) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Purchase Contract Agent duly executed by the Holder thereof, or its attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security, but the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Equity-Linked Securities, other than any exchanges pursuant to Section 3.06 and Section 9.05 not involving any transfer. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Purchase
Contract Agent shall not be obligated to authenticate on behalf of the Holder or deliver any Equity-Linked Security in exchange for any other Equity-Linked Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange on or after
the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security. In lieu of delivery of a new Equity-Linked Security, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in this Section and receipt
of appropriate registration or transfer instructions from such Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, if a Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security has occurred, deliver the shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of the
Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security (together with the Separate Note, if such Equity-Linked Security is a Unit and if the Repurchase Right is not applicable or, if applicable, not exercised). 

Section 3.06 Book-Entry Interests. 

The Units, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global Units, to be delivered to the
Depositary or its custodian by, or on behalf of, the Company. The Company hereby designates DTC as the initial Depositary. Such Global Units shall initially be registered on the books and records of the Company in the name of Cede & Co.,
the nominee of DTC, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Unit representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such Global Unit, except as provided in Section 3.09. The Purchase Contract Agent shall enter into an agreement
with the Depositary if so requested by the Company in writing. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Securities have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 3.09: 

 

 26 

 (i) the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be in full force and
effect; 
 (ii) except as contemplated in the definition of “Holders” in Section 1.01(d), the
Company shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of this Agreement (including receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Holder of the Global Units and Global Purchase Contracts and shall have no obligation to the
Beneficial Owners; 
 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.06 conflict with any other
provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall control; and 
 (iv) the rights of
the Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the Depositary or the Depositary Participants. 

Section 3.07 Notices to Holders. 

Whenever a notice or other communication to the Holders is required to be given under this Agreement, the Company or the Company’s
agent shall give such notices and communications to the Holders and, with respect to any Units or Purchase Contracts registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary, the Company or the Company’s agent shall, except as
set forth herein, have no obligations to the Beneficial Owners. 
 Section 3.08 Appointment of
Successor Depositary. 
 If the Depositary elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary with respect to
the Units or Purchase Contracts, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint a successor Depositary with respect to such Units or such Purchase Contracts, as the case may be. 

Section 3.09 Definitive Securities. 

If: 

(i) the Depositary is no longer a Clearing Agency or elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary with
respect to the Global Securities and a successor Depositary is not appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to Section 3.08; 
  

 27 

 (ii) at any time the depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered
under the Exchange Act; or 
 (iii) the Company elects, in its sole discretion, to allow some or all Global Units
or Global Purchase Contracts to be exchangeable for definitive securities in registered form, 
 then (x) Definitive Securities shall be
prepared by the Company with respect to such Global Securities and delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee, and (y) upon surrender of such Global Securities by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the
Company shall cause Definitive Securities to be executed, authenticated and delivered to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary. The Company shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Each Definitive Security so delivered shall evidence Units or Purchase Contracts or Notes, as the case may be, of the same kind and tenor as the Global Security so
surrendered in respect thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exchange of Global Notes for Notes in definitive form shall be governed by the Indenture. 

Section 3.10 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities. 

If any mutilated Equity-Linked Security is surrendered to the Purchase Contract Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver to the
Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver in exchange therefor, a new Equity-Linked Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase
Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If there shall be delivered
to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Equity-Linked Security, and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be reasonable required by them to hold
each of them and any agent of any of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee that such Equity-Linked Security has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Company shall execute and
deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver to the Holder, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security, a new
Equity-Linked Security, evidencing the same number of Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as the case may be, and bearing a security number not contemporaneously outstanding. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to execute and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee, and
the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall not be obligated to authenticate on behalf of the Holder, and deliver to the Holder, an Equity-Linked Security on or after the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date with respect to

  

 28 

 
such Equity-Linked Security. In lieu of delivery of a new Equity-Linked Security, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified above in this Section and receipt of appropriate
registration or transfer instructions from such Holder, the Purchase Contract Agent shall, if a Settlement Date with respect to such Equity-Linked Security has occurred, deliver or arrange for delivery of the shares of Common Stock deliverable in
respect of the Purchase Contracts evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security (together with Separate Notes equal to the number of, and in the same form as, the Notes evidenced by such Equity-Linked Security if such Equity-Linked Security is a Unit and
if the Repurchase Right is not applicable or, if applicable, not exercised). 
 Upon the issuance of any new Equity-Linked
Security under this Section 3.10, the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent may require the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses
(including the fees and expenses of the Purchase Contract Agent) connected therewith. 
 Every new Equity-Linked Security issued
pursuant to this Section 3.10 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and of the Holder in respect of the Unit or Separate Purchase Contract,
as the case may be, evidenced thereby, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Security shall be found at any time. Such new Equity-Linked Security (and the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts, as applicable, evidenced thereby)
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits and be subject to all the obligations of this Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other Equity-Linked Securities delivered hereunder.

 The provisions of this Section 3.10 are exclusive and shall preclude, to the extent lawful, all other rights and
remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Equity-Linked Securities. 

Section 3.11 Persons Deemed Owners. 

Prior to due presentment of an Equity-Linked Security for registration of transfer, the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent, and any
agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent, may treat the Person in whose name such Equity-Linked Security is registered as the owner of the Unit or Purchase Contract, as the case may be, evidenced thereby, for the purpose of performance of
the Units or Purchase Contracts, as applicable, evidenced by such Equity-Linked Securities and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company nor the Purchase Contract Agent, nor any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent,
shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Global Unit or Global
Purchase Contract, nothing contained herein shall prevent the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent or any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by
the Depositary (or its nominee), 
  

 29 

 
as a Holder, with respect to such Global Unit or Global Purchase Contract or impair, as between such Depositary and the related Beneficial Owner, the operation of customary practices governing
the exercise of rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of such Global Unit or Global Purchase Contract. 

Section 3.12 Cancellation. 

All Securities surrendered for separation or recreation and all Equity-Linked Securities surrendered for settlement or upon the
registration of transfer or exchange of an Equity-Linked Security shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Purchase Contract Agent, be delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent and, if not already cancelled, be promptly cancelled by it;
provided, however, that the Purchase Contract Agent shall deliver any Notes or Separate Notes so surrendered to it to the Trustee and Paying Agent (as defined in the Indenture) for disposition in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. In
the case of a Unit or Units surrendered for settlement, subject to Section 5.05 hereof, the Company shall promptly execute and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and deliver in accordance with the terms of the Indenture to the Holder thereof a
number of Separate Notes equal to the number of, and in the same form as, the Notes comprising part of the Units so surrendered. The Company may at any time deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent for cancellation any Equity-Linked Securities
previously executed, authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Equity-Linked Securities so delivered shall, upon an Issuer Order, be promptly cancelled by the Purchase Contract Agent;
provided, however, that if the Equity-Linked Securities so delivered are Units, the Purchase Contract Agent shall deliver the Notes comprising such Units to the Trustee and Paying Agent (as defined in the Indenture) for disposition in accordance
with the provisions of the Indenture. No Equity-Linked Securities shall be executed, authenticated on behalf of the Holder and delivered in lieu of or in exchange for any Equity-Linked Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as
expressly permitted by this Agreement. All cancelled Equity-Linked Securities held by the Purchase Contract Agent shall be disposed of in accordance with its customary practices. 

If the Company or any Affiliate of the Company shall acquire any Equity-Linked Security, such acquisition shall not operate as a
cancellation of such Equity-Linked Security unless and until such Equity-Linked Security is delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent for cancellation, in which case such Equity-Linked Security shall be accompanied by an Issuer Order and cancelled in
accordance with the immediately preceding paragraph. 
 ARTICLE IV 

SETTLEMENT OF THE PURCHASE CONTRACTS 

Section 4.01 Settlement Rate. 

Each Purchase Contract obligates the Company to deliver, on the Mandatory Settlement Date, a number of shares of Common Stock (subject to
Section 4.04 and Article 5) equal to the Settlement Rate as determined by the Company unless such Purchase Contract settles prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date. 

The “Settlement Rate” is equal to: 

 

 30 

 (i) if the Applicable Market Value (as defined below) is equal to or
greater than $7.12 (the “Threshold Appreciation Price”), 3.5126 shares of Common Stock for each Purchase Contract (the “Minimum Settlement Rate”); 

(ii) if the Applicable Market Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price but greater than $5.81 (the
“Reference Price”), a number of shares of Common Stock for each Purchase Contract equal to the Stated Amount, divided by the Applicable Market Value; and 

(iii) if the Applicable Market Value is less than or equal to the Reference Price, 4.3029 shares of Common Stock for each
Purchase Contract (the “Maximum Settlement Rate”), provided that the Maximum Settlement Rate, the Minimum Settlement Rate (each, a “Fixed Settlement Rate”) and the Applicable Market Value shall be subject to
adjustment as provided in Article V and rounded upward or downward to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share (or if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). 

(iv) The Company shall give notice of the Settlement Rate to the Purchase Contract Agent and Holders no later than 2
Trading Days prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date. 
 Section 4.02 Representations and Agreements
of Holders. 
 Each Holder of an Equity-Linked Security by its acceptance thereof: 

(i) irrevocably authorizes the Purchase Contract Agent to enter into and perform this Agreement on its behalf as its
attorney-in-fact; 
 (ii) consents to the provisions hereof; 

(iii) agrees that it will treat each Purchase Contract in its entirety as a forward contract for the delivery of the
Common Stock, or other Exchange Property, on the Mandatory Settlement Date (or on any Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, or Early Mandatory Settlement Date), under the terms of which contract, at settlement, the Company
will deliver to the Holders the number of shares of Common Stock that such Holder is entitled to receive at that time pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contracts; 

(iv) in the case of a Holder that holds a Unit, agrees, for United States tax purposes, to treat (1) a Unit as an
investment unit 
  

 31 

 
composed of two separate instruments, in accordance with its form and (2) the Notes as
indebtedness; and 

(v) agrees to be bound by the terms and provisions thereof. 

Section 4.03 Delivery Upon Settlement of the Purchase Contracts. 

(a) On the applicable Settlement Date, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, for the benefit of the Holders
of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holders are entitled hereunder, registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent (or its nominee) as custodian for the Holders (such shares of
Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions for which a record date and payment date for such dividend or distribution have occurred after the due date for the delivery of the Common Stock to the Purchase Contract Agent, the
“Purchase Contract Settlement Fund”). 
 (b) On or following the applicable Settlement Date, upon surrender of
the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts by book entry transfer or by delivery of any Units or Separate Purchase Contracts in definitive form to the Purchase Contract Agent with duly completed settlement instructions in the form attached thereto,
the Purchase Contract Agent shall transfer the shares of Common Stock underlying such Purchase Contracts, together with (i) cash in lieu of fractional shares as provided in Section 4.04, (ii) the Separate Note (in the case of the
transfer or delivery of Units, but not in the case of settlement on the Mandatory Settlement Date if such Separate Note also matures on the Mandatory Settlement Date) and (iii) any dividends or distributions with respect to such shares
constituting part of the Purchase Contract Settlement Fund, but without any interest thereon, to such Holder by book-entry transfer, or other appropriate procedures, in accordance with such instructions. 

(c) The shares of Common Stock underlying the Purchase Contracts shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s
designee as specified in the settlement instructions provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent, and the Company will pay all stock transfer and similar taxes attributable to the delivery thereof, unless any such transfer or similar tax
is payable in respect of any registration of such shares in a name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered, in which case the Company shall not be required to pay any such transfer
or similar tax and no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any such transfer or similar taxes required by reason of such registration in a name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the
Security evidencing such Purchase Contract is registered or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable. 

 

 32 

 In the event a Holder fails to effect surrender or delivery of its Units or Purchase
Contracts in accordance with the provisions hereof, the shares of Common Stock underlying such Purchase Contracts, and any distributions thereon, shall be held in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent or its nominee in trust for the benefit of
such Holder, until the earlier to occur of: 
 (i) the surrender of the relevant Units or Separate Purchase
Contracts for settlement in accordance with the provisions hereof or receipt by the Company and the Purchase Contract Agent from such Holder of satisfactory evidence that such Units or Separate Purchase Contracts have been destroyed, lost or stolen,
together with any indemnity that may be required by the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company; and 
 (ii) the
passage of two (2) years from the Settlement Date, following which the Purchase Contract Agent shall pay to the Company such Holder’s share of Common Stock and any distributions thereon; provided, however, that the Purchase Contract
Agent, before making any such payment to the Company, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once in a newspaper of general circulation in the City of New York or mail to each such Holder notice that such property remains unclaimed
and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication or mailing, any unclaimed balance of such property then remaining will be repaid to the Company. After payment to the Company, (A)
Holders entitled to such property must look to the Company for payment as general creditors, unless applicable abandoned property law designates another person, and (B) all liability of the Purchase Contract Agent with respect to such property shall
cease. 
 Section 4.04 No Fractional Shares. 

No fractional shares or scrip certificates representing fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or delivered to Holders upon
settlement of the Purchase Contracts. In lieu of any fractional shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon settlement of any Purchase Contracts, a Holder of a Security shall be entitled to receive an amount in cash equal to the
fraction of a share of Common Stock, calculated on an aggregate basis in respect of the Purchase Contracts being settled, multiplied by the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Mandatory
Settlement Date, Early Settlement Date, Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date or Early Mandatory Settlement Date, as the case may be. The Company shall provide the Purchase Contract Agent from time to time with sufficient funds to permit the
Purchase Contract Agent to make all cash payments required by this Section 4.04 in a timely manner. 
 ARTICLE V 

 ADJUSTMENTS 

Section 5.01 Adjustments to the Fixed Settlement Rates. 

(a) Each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be subject to the following adjustments: 

(i) Stock Dividends and Distributions. If the Company issues Common Stock to all or substantially all of the
holders of Common Stock as a dividend or other distribution, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or other
distribution will be divided by a fraction: 
  

 33 

 (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for such determination, and 
 (B) the
denominator of which is the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for such determination and the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or other
distribution. 
 Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (i) will become effective immediately after
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for such determination. If any dividend or distribution described in this clause (i) is declared but not so paid or made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the
date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to make such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. For the purposes of this clause
(i), the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for such determination shall not include shares held in treasury by the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any
scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. 

(ii) Issuance of Stock Purchase Rights. If the Company issues to all or substantially all holders of Common
Stock rights or warrants (other than rights or warrants issued pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan or share purchase plan or other similar plans), entitling such holders, for a period of up to 45 calendar days from the date of issuance of such
rights or warrants, to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the Current Market Price, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for determination of the
holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such rights or warrants will be increased by multiplying such Fixed Settlement Rate by a fraction: 

(A) the numerator of which is the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the date fixed for such determination and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights or warrants, and 

(B) the denominator of which is the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at 5:00 p.m., New
York City time, on the date fixed for such determination and the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of the aggregate offering price payable to exercise such rights or warrants divided by the Current Market Price. 

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (ii) will become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the date fixed for such determination. In the event that such rights or warrants described in this clause (ii) are 

 

 34 

 
not so issued, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to issue such rights or warrants, to such Fixed
Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such rights or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such rights
or warrants upon the exercise of such rights or warrants, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such rights or warrants been made on the
basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered. In determining the aggregate offering price payable to exercise such rights or warrants, there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such
rights or warrants and the value of such consideration (if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors (or an authorized committee thereof), whose determination shall be conclusive). For the purposes of this clause (ii), the number
of shares of Common Stock at the time outstanding shall not include shares held in treasury by the Company but shall include any shares issuable in respect of any scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company
shall not issue any such rights or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in treasury by the Company. 

(iii) Subdivisions and Combinations of the Common Stock. If outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be
subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock or combined into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the effective date of such subdivision or
combination shall be multiplied by a fraction: 
 (A) the numerator of which is the number of shares of
Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, such subdivision or combination, and 

(B) the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such
subdivision or combination. 
 Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (iii) shall become effective
immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the effective date of such subdivision or combination. 

(iv) Debt or Asset Distribution. (A) If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of
Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other assets (excluding (1) any dividend or distribution covered by Section 5.01(a)(i), (2) any rights or warrants covered by
Section 5.01(a)(ii), (3) any dividend or distribution covered by Section 5.01(a)(v) and (4) any Spin-Off to which the provisions set forth in Section 5.01(a)(iv)(B) apply), each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at
5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution will be multiplied by a fraction: 

 

 35 

 1. the numerator of which is the Current Market Price, and 

2. the denominator of which is the Current Market Price minus the Fair Market Value, on such date fixed for
determination, of the portion of the evidences of indebtedness, shares of capital stock, securities, cash or other assets so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock. 

(B) In the case of a Spin-Off, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
date fixed for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution will be multiplied by a fraction: 

1. the numerator of which is the sum of (x) the Current Market Price and (y) the Fair Market Value of the
portion of those shares of capital stock or similar equity interests so distributed which is applicable to one share of Common Stock as of the fifteenth Trading Day after the Ex-Date for such distribution (or, if such shares of capital stock or
equity interests are listed on a national or regional securities exchange, the average of the Closing Prices of such securities for the ten consecutive Trading Day period ending on such fifteenth Trading Day), and 

2. the denominator of which is the Current Market Price. 

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (iv) shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that such distribution described in this clause (iv) is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be
readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such dividend or distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared. 

(v) Cash Distributions. If the Company distributes an amount exclusively in cash to all or substantially
all holders of Common Stock (excluding (1) any cash that is distributed in a Reorganization Event to which Section 5.01(e) applies, (2) any dividend or distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
Company or (3) any consideration payable as part of a tender or exchange offer by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company), each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for determination of
the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution will be multiplied by a fraction: 

(A) the numerator of which is the Current Market Price, and 

 

 36 

 (B) the denominator of which is the Current Market Price minus the
amount per share of Common Stock of such distribution. 
 Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause
(v) shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date fixed for the determination of the holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution. In the event that any distribution described in this
clause (v) is not so made, each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors publicly announces its decision not to pay such distribution, to such Fixed Settlement Rate which would then be in
effect if such distribution had not been declared. 
 (vi) Self Tender Offers and Exchange Offers. If
the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company successfully completes a tender or exchange offer pursuant to a Schedule TO or registration statement on Form S-4 for Common Stock (excluding any securities convertible or exchangeable for Common
Stock), where the cash and the value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Current Market Price, each Fixed Settlement Rate in effect at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of expiration
of the tender or exchange offer (the “Tender Offer Expiration Date”) will be multiplied by a fraction: 

(A) the numerator of which shall be equal to the sum of: 

a. the aggregate cash and Fair Market Value on the Tender Offer Expiration Date of any other consideration paid or
payable for shares of Common Stock validly tendered or exchanged and not withdrawn as of the Tender Offer Expiration Date; and 

b. the product of the Current Market Price and the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after
the last time tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Tender Offer Expiration Time”) on the Tender Offer Expiration Date; and 

(B) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of the Current Market Price and the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Tender Offer Expiration Time on the Tender Offer Expiration Date. 

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (vi) shall become effective immediately after 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the seventh Trading Day immediately following the Tender Offer Expiration Date. In the event that the Company or one of its Subsidiaries is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender offer or exchange
offer, but the Company or such Subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchases, or all such purchases are rescinded, then each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be readjusted to such

  

 37 

 
Fixed Settlement Rate that would then be in effect if such tender offer or exchange offer had not been made. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, if the application of this clause
(vi) to any tender offer or exchange offer would result in a decrease in each Fixed Settlement Rate, no adjustment shall be made for such tender offer or exchange offer under this clause (vi).

(vii) Except with respect to a Spin-Off, in cases where the Fair Market Value of assets (including cash), debt
securities or certain rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company as to which Section 5.01(a)(iv) or Section 5.01(a)(v) apply, applicable to one share of Common Stock, distributed to holders of Common Stock
equals or exceeds the average of the Closing Prices of the Common Stock over the five consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day before the Ex-Date for such distribution, rather than being entitled to an adjustment in each Fixed
Settlement Rate, Holders shall be entitled to receive upon settlement, in addition to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the applicable Settlement Rate in effect on the applicable Settlement Date, the kind and amount of assets (including
cash), debt securities or rights, warrants or options comprising the distribution that such Holder would have received if such Holder had settled its Purchase Contracts immediately prior to the date fixed for determination of the holders of Common
Stock entitled to receive the distribution calculated by multiplying the kind and amount of assets (including cash), debt securities or rights, warrants or options comprising such distribution by the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
Minimum Settlement Rate in effect on the applicable Settlement Date. 
 (viii) Rights Plans. To the
extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on any Settlement Date, upon settlement of any Purchase Contracts, Holders shall receive, in addition to the Common Stock, the rights under such rights plan,
unless, prior to such Settlement Date, the rights have separated from the Common Stock, in which case each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation of such rights as if the Company made a distribution to all holders of the
Common Stock as described in Section 5.01(a)(iv), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 

(b) Adjustment for Tax Reasons. The Company may make such increases in each Fixed Settlement Rate, in addition to any other
increases required by this Section 5.01, as the Company deems advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of the Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or issuance of rights or warrants
to acquire shares of Common Stock) or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reasons; provided that the same proportionate adjustment must be made to each Fixed Settlement Rate. 

(c) Calculation of Adjustments; Adjustments to Threshold Appreciation Price, Reference Price and Stock Price. (i) All
adjustments to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of Common Stock. No adjustment in a Fixed Settlement Rate shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least
one percent therein; provided, that any adjustments which by reason of this 
  

 38 

 
Section 5.01(c)(i) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, however that on the earlier of the
Mandatory Settlement Date, the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date, the Early Mandatory Settlement Date and an Early Settlement Date, adjustments to each Fixed Settlement Rate shall be made with respect to any such adjustment carried forward
and which has not been taken into account before such date. 
 (ii) Upon each adjustment to each Fixed
Settlement Rates pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), a corresponding adjustment shall also be made to the Applicable Market Value solely for purposes of determining which of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 4.01 shall
be applicable on the Mandatory Settlement Date. Such adjustment shall be made by dividing each of the Threshold Appreciation Price and the Reference Price by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be either Fixed Settlement Rate immediately after
such adjustment pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) and the denominator of which shall be such Fixed Settlement Rate immediately before such adjustment. The Company shall make appropriate adjustments to the Closing Prices prior to
the relevant Ex-Date, effective date or Tender Offer Expiration Date, as the case may be, used to calculate the Applicable Market Value to account for any adjustments to the Reference Price, the Threshold Appreciation Price and the Fixed Settlement
Rates that become effective during the 20 consecutive Trading Day period used for calculating the Applicable Market Value. 

(iii) If: 

(A) the record date for a dividend or distribution on Common Stock occurs after the end of the 20 consecutive Trading
Day period used for calculating the Applicable Market Value and before the Mandatory Settlement Date; and 

(B) such dividend or distribution would have resulted in an adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock
issuable to the Holders had such record date occurred on or before the last Trading Day of such 20-Trading Day period, 
 then
the Company shall deem the Holders to be holders of record of Common Stock for purposes of that dividend or distribution. In this case, the Holders would receive the dividend or distribution on Common Stock together with the number of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the Mandatory Settlement Date or the Early Mandatory Settlement Date. 
 (iv) If
an adjustment is made to the Fixed Settlement Rates pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), a proportional adjustment shall be made to each Stock Price set forth in the table included in Section 5.03(e). Such adjustment shall be made by
multiplying each Stock Price included in such table by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Minimum Settlement Rate immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the Minimum Settlement Rate immediately after such

  

 39 

 
adjustment. Each of the Settlement Rates in the table included in Section 5.03(e) will be subject to adjustment in the same manner as each Fixed Settlement Rate as set forth in this
Section 5.01. 
 (v) No adjustment to the Fixed Settlement Rates shall be made if Holders may
participate in the transaction that would otherwise give rise to an adjustment. In addition, the Fixed Settlement Rates shall not be adjusted: 

(A) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the
reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan; 

(B) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants to purchase those shares pursuant to any
present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries; 

(C) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable,
exchangeable or convertible security outstanding as of the Issue Date; or 
 (D) for a change in the par
value or no par value of the Common Stock. 
 (d) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Fixed Settlement Rates and the
Fundamental Change Settlement Rates are to be adjusted, the Company shall: 
 (i) compute such adjusted
Fixed Settlement Rates and Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and prepare and transmit to the Purchase Contract Agent an Officers’ Certificate setting forth such adjusted Fixed Settlement Rates and Fundamental Change Settlement Rates, the
method of calculation thereof in reasonable detail and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based; 

(ii) within five Business Days following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Fixed
Settlement Rates and the Fundamental Change Settlement Rates (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of
such event; and 
 (iii) within five Business Days following the determination of such adjusted Fixed
Settlement Rates and Fundamental Change Settlement Rates provide, or cause to be provided, to the Holders a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the method by which the adjustment to such Fixed Settlement Rates and Fundamental Change
Settlement Rates, as applicable, was determined and setting forth such adjusted Fixed Settlement Rates or Fundamental Change Settlement Rates and the facts requiring such adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based. 

 

 40 

 (e) Reorganization Events. In the event of: 

(i) any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person (other than a merger or consolidation in
which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which the Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or consolidation is not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person); 

(ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all of the property and assets
of the Company; 
 (iii) any reclassification of Common Stock into securities including securities other
than Common Stock; or 
 (iv) any statutory exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other
than in connection with a merger or acquisition), 
 in each case, as a result of which the Company’s Common Stock would be converted into,
or exchanged for, securities, cash or property (each, a “Reorganization Event”), each Purchase Contract outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event shall, without the consent of Holders, become a contract to purchase
the kind of securities, cash and other property (the “Exchange Property”) that such Holder would have been entitled to receive if such Holder had settled its Purchase Contracts immediately prior to such Reorganization
Event. For purposes of the foregoing, the type and amount of Exchange Property in the case of any Reorganization Event that causes the Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined
based in part upon any form of shareholder election) will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election. The number of units of
Exchange Property for each Purchase Contract settled following the Effective Date of such Reorganization Event shall be determined based on the Fixed Settlement Rate then in effect on the applicable Settlement Date (without any interest thereon and
without any right to dividends or distributions thereon which have a record date that is prior to the Settlement Date). The Fixed Settlement Rate shall be determined based upon the Applicable Market Value. 

For purposes of this Section 5.01(e), “Applicable Market Value” shall be deemed to refer to the Applicable Market
Value of the Exchange Property and such value shall be determined (A) with respect to any publicly traded securities that comprises all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the Closing Price of such securities, (B) in the case of any
cash that comprises all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the amount of such cash and (C) in the case of any other property that comprises all or part of the Exchange Property, based on the value of such property, as determined by a
nationally recognized independent investment banking firm retained by the Company for this purpose. For purposes of this Section 5.01(e), the term “Closing Price” shall be deemed to refer to the closing sale price, last quoted
bid price or mid-point of the last bid and ask prices, as the case may be, of any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property. For purposes of this Section 5.01(e), references to

  

 41 

 
Common Stock in the definition of “Trading Day” shall be replaced by references to any publicly traded securities that comprise all or part of the Exchange Property. 

The above provisions of this Section 5.01(e) shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events and the provisions of
Section 5.01 shall apply to any shares of capital stock of the Company (or any successor) received by the holders of Common Stock in any such Reorganization Event. 

The Company (or any successor) shall, within 20 days of the occurrence of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the
Purchase Contract Agent and Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitute the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this
Section 5.01(e). 
 Section 5.02 [Reserved.] 

Section 5.03 Early Settlement Upon a Fundamental Change. 

(a) If a Fundamental Change occurs and a Holder elects to settle its Purchase Contracts in connection with such Fundamental Change, such
Holder shall receive a number of shares of Common Stock (or cash, securities or other property) based on the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate (the “Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right”). An Early Settlement shall be
deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Fundamental Change if the Holder delivers an Early Settlement Notice to the Purchase Contract Agent, and otherwise satisfies the requirements for effecting Early Settlement of its
Purchase Contracts set forth in Section 5.04 hereof, during the period beginning on, and including, the Effective Date of the Fundamental Change and ending on, and including, the 30th Business Day thereafter (the “Fundamental Change Early
Settlement Date”). 
 (b) The Company shall provide the Purchase Contract Agent and the Holders of Units and Separate
Purchase Contracts with a notice of a Fundamental Change within five Business Days after its occurrence, issue a press release announcing the Effective Date and post such press release on its website. The notice shall set forth, among other things,
(i) the applicable Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate, (ii) the kind and amount of the cash, securities and other consideration receivable by the Holder upon settlement and (iii) the deadline by which each Holder’s
Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right must be exercised. 
 (c) The “Fundamental Change Early Settlement
Rate” shall be determined by the Company by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and the stock price (the “Stock
Price”) in the Fundamental Change, which shall be: 
 (i) in the case of a Fundamental Change described in clause
(ii) of the definition thereof in which holders of shares of Common Stock receive only cash in the 
  

 42 

 
Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock; and 

(ii) in all other cases, the Stock Price shall be the average of the daily Closing Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 Trading Day
period ending on the Trading Day preceding the Effective Date. 
 (d) The Stock Prices set forth in the first column of the
table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which any Fixed Settlement Rate is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the Fixed Settlement Rate immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Fixed Settlement Rate as so adjusted. The number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted in
the same manner as the Fixed Settlement Rates as set forth in Section 5.01. 
 (e) The following table sets forth the
Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate per Purchase Contract for each Stock Price and Effective Date set forth below:

 The exact Stock Prices and
Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in which case: 
  

	(i)	if the applicable Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table, the Fundamental Change Early
Settlement Rate shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rates set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the two Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

  

 43 

	(ii)	if the applicable Stock Price is in excess of $25.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the table above), the
Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate shall be the Minimum Settlement Rate; or 

  

	(iii)	if the applicable Stock Price is less than $1.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the table above), the
“Minimum Stock Price,” the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Rate shall be determined as if the Stock Price equaled the Minimum Stock Price, and using straight line interpolation, as described in clause (i) of this
Section 5.03(e), if the Effective Date is between two dates in the table. 

 The maximum number of shares of Common Stock
deliverable under a Purchase Contract is 4.3029, subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Fixed Settlement Rates as set forth under Section 5.01. 

(f) If a Holder exercises its Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right following the Effective Date of a Fundamental Change described in
clause (ii) of the definition of “Fundamental Change,” in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5.03, the Company shall deliver to such Holder or the Purchase Contract Agent on behalf of such Holder, in accordance with
Section 4.03 the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that such Holder would have been entitled to receive in such Fundamental Change transaction as a holder of a number of shares of the Common Stock equal to the Fundamental Change
Settlement Rate for each Purchase Contract being settled early. If such Fundamental Change causes the Common Stock to be converted into the right to receive more than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of
shareholder election) and the Holder exercises the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right, the Company shall deliver to such Holder the types and amounts of consideration as are proportional to the types and amounts of consideration received by
the holders of the Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election. The Company shall deliver the shares of Common Stock, securities, cash or other property payable as a result of such Holder’s exercise of the Fundamental Change Early
Settlement Right on the third Business Day following the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Date. 
 (g) If a Holder does not
elect to exercise the Fundamental Change Early Settlement Right, such Holder’s Purchase Contracts shall remain outstanding and shall be subject to normal settlement on any subsequent Settlement Date, including, if applicable, the provisions set
forth in Section 5.01. 
 Section 5.04 Early Settlement. 

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Section 5.04, on any Trading Day prior to the close of business on the
third Business Day immediately preceding the Mandatory Settlement Date, a Holder may elect to settle its Purchase Contracts early, in whole or in part (“Early Settlement”) at the Early Settlement Rate. 

 

 44 

 (b) A Holder’s right to receive Common Stock upon Early Settlement of any of its
Purchase Contracts is subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) delivery of a written and signed notice of election (an
“Early Settlement Notice”) in the form attached to the Purchase Contract to the Purchase Contract Agent electing Early Settlement of such Purchase Contract; 

(ii) surrendering the relevant Definitive Security, if such Purchase Contract or the Unit that includes such Purchase Contract is in the
form of a Definitive Security, to the Purchase Contract Agent at the Corporate Trust Office duly endorsed for transfer to the Company or in blank with the form of Election to Settle Early on the reverse thereof duly completed, or if such Purchase
Contract is represented by a Global Security, compliance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary; and 
 (iii) payment
by such Holder of any transfer or similar taxes payable in connection with the issuance of Common Stock to any Person other than such Holder pursuant to subsection (c) below. If a Holder complies with the requirements set forth in clauses
(i) through (iii) above earlier than the close of business on any Business Day, then that Business Day shall be considered the “Early Settlement Date.” If a Holder complies with the requirements set forth in clauses
(i) through (iii) above earlier than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day or at any time on a day that is not a Business Day, then the next Business Day shall be considered the “Early Settlement Date.”

 (c) Upon surrender or book-entry transfer of such Purchase Contracts or the related Units in accordance with Section 4.03,
the Company shall cause a number of shares of Common Stock, calculated at the Early Settlement Rate to be issued and delivered, together with payment in lieu of any fraction of a share as provided in Section 4.04, as promptly as practicable,
but no later than the third Business Day following the Early Settlement Date. Such shares shall be registered in the name of the Holder or the Holder’s designee, and shall be delivered as specified on the applicable form of Election to Settle
Early provided by the Holder to the Purchase Contract Agent. If any shares of Common Stock deliverable in respect of a Purchase Contract are to be registered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Security evidencing such Purchase
Contract is registered, no such registration shall be made unless the Person requesting such registration has paid any transfer and other taxes required by reason of such registration in a name other than that of the registered Holder of the
certificate evidencing such Purchase Contract or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax either has been paid or is not payable. 

(d) In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts that are a component of Units, upon such Early
Settlement the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, Separate Notes, in same form as the Notes comprising part of the Units, equal to the
number of Purchase Contracts as to which Early Settlement was effected. 
  

 45 

 (e) In the event that Early Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts
represented by less than all the Purchase Contracts evidenced by a Security, upon such Early Settlement the Company shall execute and the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder and deliver to the Holder
thereof, at the expense of the Company, a Security evidencing the Purchase Contracts as to which Early Settlement was not effected. 

Section 5.05 Early Mandatory Settlement at the Company’s Election. 

(a) The Company has the right to settle the Purchase Contracts early, in whole but not in part (the “Early Mandatory Settlement
Right”), on a date fixed by it (the “Early Mandatory Settlement Date”) at the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate. 

(b) If the Company elects to exercise its Early Mandatory Settlement Right, the Company will provide the Purchase Contract Agent and the
Holders of Units, Separate Purchase Contracts and Separate Notes with a notice of its election (the “Early Mandatory Settlement Notice”), issue a press release announcing its election and post such press release on its website. The
Early Mandatory Settlement Notice shall specify, among other things: 
 (i) the Early Mandatory Settlement Rate; 

(ii) the Early Mandatory Settlement Date, which will be at least 5 but not more than 30 Business Days following the date of the
Company’s notice (the “Notice Date”); 
 (iii) whether Holders of Units and Separate Notes will have the
right to require the Company to repurchase their Notes that are a component of the Units or their Separate Notes, as the case may be pursuant to and in accordance with the Indenture; 

(iv) if applicable, the Repurchase Price and Repurchase Date; 

(v) if applicable, the last date on which Holders may exercise their Repurchase Right; and 

(vi) if applicable, the procedures that Holders must following to require the Company to repurchase their Notes (which procedures shall
be in accordance with the Indenture). 
  

 46 

 The Company will deliver the shares of Common Stock and any cash payable for fractional
shares to the Holders of the Purchase Contract on the Early Mandatory Settlement Date. 
 (c) In the event that Early Mandatory
Settlement is effected with respect to Purchase Contracts that are a component of Units, upon such Early Mandatory Settlement the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder and deliver to the Holder thereof, at
the expense of the Company, Separate Notes in the same form and in the same number as the Notes comprising part of the Units; provided, however, that if the Repurchase Date occurs prior to the Early Mandatory Settlement Date, Holders will surrender
the Units on the Repurchase Date and the Company shall execute, and the Purchase Contract Agent and the Trustee shall authenticate, Separate Purchase Contracts in the same form and in the same number as the Purchase Contracts comprising part of the
Units, such Separate Purchase Contracts to be settled on the Early Mandatory Settlement Date.

[RESERVED] 

ARTICLE VII 

REMEDIES 

Section 7.01 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Shares of Common Stock. 

Each Holder of a Purchase Contract (whether or not included in a Unit) shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to
receive the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Purchase Contract and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such right to receive the shares of Common Stock, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 Section 7.02 Limitation on Proceedings. 

No Holder of Purchase Contracts may institute any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Agreement or for any remedy
hereunder, except in the case of failure of the Purchase Contract Agent, for 60 days, to act after the Purchase Contract Agent has received a written request to institute proceedings in respect of a default with respect to any covenant hereunder
from the Holders of not less than 25% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, as well as an offer of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Purchase Contract Agent. This provision will not prevent any Holder of Purchase Contracts from instituting
suit for the delivery of Common Stock deliverable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts on the Mandatory Settlement Date or any Early Settlement Date, Fundamental Change Settlement Date or Early Mandatory Settlement Date. 

Section 7.03 Restoration of Rights and Remedies. 

If any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement and such proceeding has been discontinued
or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company and such Holder shall be restored severally and

  

 47 

 
respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of such Holder shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 7.04 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. 

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last
paragraph of Section 3.10, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 Section 7.05 Delay or Omission Not
Waiver. 
 No delay or omission of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy upon a default hereunder shall impair any
such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such right. Every right and remedy given by this Article or by law to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by such Holders. 

Section 7.06 Undertaking for Costs. 

All parties to this Agreement agree, and each Holder of a Purchase Contract, by its acceptance of such Purchase Contract shall be deemed
to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Agreement, or in any suit against the Purchase Contract Agent for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Purchase
Contract Agent, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs against any party
litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section shall not apply to any suit instituted by (a) the Purchase Contract
Agent, (b) any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts, or (c) any Holder for the enforcement of the right to receive shares of Common Stock or other Exchange Property under
the Purchase Contracts held by such Holder. 
 Section 7.07 Waiver of Stay or
Execution Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not
at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or assume or take the 
  

 48 

 
benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Company (to
the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Purchase Contract Agent or the Holders,
but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

Section 7.08 Control by Majority. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in number of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts shall have the right to direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Purchase Contract Agent, or of exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Purchase Contract Agent; provided that the Purchase Contract Agent has received indemnity
satisfactory to it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchase Contract Agent may refuse to follow any direction that is in conflict with any law or the Purchase Contract Agreement, that may involve it in personal liability or that may be unduly
prejudicial to the Holders of Purchase Contracts not joining in the action. 
 ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.01 Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

 (iv) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not
be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in number of the Outstanding Purchase Contracts.

Certificate of the Company; 
 (d) the Purchase Contract Agent may consult with counsel of its selection appointed with due care
by it hereunder and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 

(e) the Purchase Contract Agent shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Purchase Contract Agent, in its discretion may make reasonable
further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters related to the execution, delivery and performance of the Purchase Contracts as it may see fit, and, if the Purchase Contract Agent shall determine to make such further inquiry or

least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Purchase Contract Agent and the appointment of a successor Purchase Contract Agent. 

(e) If the Purchase Contract Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of

Purchase Contract Agent may petition at the expense of the Company, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Purchase Contract Agent. 

(f) The Company shall give, or shall cause such successor Purchase Contract Agent to give, notice of each resignation and each removal of

Section 8.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Purchase Contract Agent, every such successor Purchase Contract Agent so appointed
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Purchase Contract Agent an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Purchase Contract Agent shall become effective and
such successor Purchase Contract Agent, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, agencies and duties of the retiring Purchase Contract Agent. At the request of the Company or the successor
Purchase Contract Agent, such retiring Purchase Contract Agent shall, upon its receipt of payment or reimbursement of any amounts due to it hereunder, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Purchase Contract Agent all the
rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Purchase Contract Agent and shall duly 
  

 55 

 
assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Purchase Contract Agent all property and money held by such retiring Purchase Contract Agent hereunder. 

(b) Upon request of any such successor Purchase Contract Agent, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Purchase Contract Agent all such rights, powers and agencies referred to in paragraph Section 8.10(a) of this Section. 

(c) No successor Purchase Contract Agent shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Purchase
Contract Agent shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
 Section 8.11 Merger;
Conversion; Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
 Any corporation into which the Purchase Contract Agent may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Purchase Contract Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the
corporate trust business of the Purchase Contract Agent, shall be the successor of the Purchase Contract Agent hereunder; provided that such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. If any Equity-Linked Securities shall have been authenticated on behalf of the Holders by the Trustee and Purchase Contract Agent then in office, but not delivered, any
successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such Purchase Contract Agent may adopt such Purchase Contract Agent’s authentication and deliver the Equity-Linked Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor
Purchase Contract Agent had itself authenticated such Equity-Linked Securities. 
 Section 8.12
Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. 
 (a) The Purchase Contract Agent shall preserve, in as
current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders as received by the Purchase Contract Agent in its capacity as Security Registrar. 

(b) If three or more Holders (such three or more Holders, the “Applicants”) apply in writing to the Purchase Contract
Agent, and furnish to the Purchase Contract Agent reasonable proof that each such Applicant has owned a Unit or Separate Purchase Contract for a period of at least six months preceding the date of such application, and such application states that
the Applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Units or Separate Purchase Contracts and is accompanied by a copy of 

 

 56 

 
the form of proxy or other communication that such Applicants propose to transmit, then the Purchase Contract Agent shall mail to all the Holders copies of the form of proxy or other
communication that is specified in such request, with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Purchase Contract Agent of the materials to be mailed and of payment, or provision for the payment, of the reasonable expenses of such mailing.

 Section 8.13 No Other Obligations of Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee. 

Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Purchase Contract Agent nor Trustee assumes any
obligations, and neither the Purchase Contract Agent nor Trustee shall be subject to any liability, under this Agreement or Security evidencing a Unit or Purchase Contract in respect of the obligations of the Holder of any Unit or Purchase Contract
thereunder. The Company agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by his or her acceptance thereof, shall be deemed to have agreed, that the Purchase Contract Agent’s and/or Trustee’s authentication, as applicable, of the Securities on behalf
of the Holders shall be solely as agent and attorney-in-fact for the Holders, and that neither the Purchase Contract Agent nor Trustee shall have any obligation to perform such Purchase Contracts (whether held as components of Units or Separate
Purchase Contracts) on behalf of the Holders, except to the extent expressly provided in Article III hereof. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Purchase Contract Agent, the Trustee or
their respective officers, employees or agents be liable under this Agreement to any third party for indirect, special, punitive, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including lost profits, whether or not the likelihood of such
loss or damage was known to the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee, incurred without any act or deed that is found to be attributable to gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on the part of the Purchase Contract Agent or Trustee.

 Section 8.14 Tax Compliance. 

(a) The Company and the Purchase Contract Agent shall comply with all applicable certification, information reporting and withholding
(including “backup” withholding) requirements imposed by applicable tax laws, regulations or administrative practice with respect to (i) any payments made with respect to the Purchase Contracts or (ii) the issuance, delivery,
holding, transfer, redemption or exercise of rights under the Purchase Contracts. Such compliance shall include, without limitation, the preparation and timely filing of required returns and the timely payment of all amounts required to be withheld
to the appropriate taxing authority or its designated agent. 
 (b) The Company shall provide written direction to the Purchase
Contract Agent with respect to its obligations arising under Section 8.14(a). The Purchase Contract Agent shall comply, in accordance with the terms hereof, with any such written direction or any other written direction received from the Company
with respect to the execution or certification of any required documentation and the application of such requirements to particular payments or Holders or in other particular circumstances, and may for purposes of this Agreement conclusively rely on
any such direction in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.01(a)(ii) hereof. 
  

 57 

 (c) The Purchase Contract Agent shall maintain all appropriate records documenting
compliance with such requirements, and shall make such records available, on written request, to the Company or its authorized representative within a reasonable period of time after receipt of such request.

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, CONVEYANCE, TRANSFER OR LEASE 

Section 10.01 Covenant Not to Consolidate, Merge, Convey, Transfer or Lease Property Except Under Certain
Conditions. 
 The Company covenants that it will not merge with and into, consolidate with or convert into any other
Person or sell, assign, transfer, lease or convey all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, unless: 

(i) the successor entity is an entity organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the
United States of America or the District of Columbia that expressly assumes all of the Company’s obligations under the Units, the Purchase Contracts and this Agreement; and 

(ii) the Company or the successor entity, as the case may be, will not, immediately after the merger, consolidation, conversion, sale,

Such successor entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Company, any or all of the Securities evidencing Units or Purchase Contracts issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been
signed by the Company and delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent; and, upon the order of such successor entity, instead of the Company, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Agreement prescribed, the Purchase Contract
Agent and Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holders and deliver any Securities that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee for authentication, and any
Security evidencing Units or Purchase Contracts that such successor corporation thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Purchase Contract Agent and Trustee for that purpose. All the Securities issued shall in all respects have the
same legal rank and benefit under this Agreement as the Securities theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as though all of such Securities had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

not in substance) may be made in the Securities evidencing Units or Purchase Contracts thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

and the Company hereby appoints the Purchase Contract Agent as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where Securities may be presented or surrendered
for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the
Borough of Manhattan, New York City for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Purchase Contract Agent of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. The Company
hereby designates as the place of payment for the Purchase Contracts the Corporate Trust Office and appoints the Purchase Contract Agent at its Corporate Trust Office as paying agent in such city. 

Section 11.03 Statements of Officers of the Company as to Default. 

The Company will deliver to the Purchase Contract Agent, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (which as of the
date hereof is September 30) ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate (one of the signers of which shall be the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of the Company), stating
whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions hereof, and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the

 62 

 
and the loss is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of any Purchase Contracts. 

Section 11.05 Company to Reserve Common Stock. 

The Company shall at all times prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its

not included in a Unit), assuming settlement at the Maximum Settlement Rate. 
 Section 11.06
Covenants as to Common Stock. 
 The Company covenants that all shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon
settlement of any Outstanding Purchase Contract will, upon issuance, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, free from all taxes, liens and charges and not subject to any preemptive rights. 

The Company further covenants that, if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on the NYSE or any other national securities
exchange, the Company will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange, list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange, all Common Stock issuable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts; provided,
however, that, if the rules of such exchange system permit the Company to defer the listing of such Common Stock until the first delivery of Common Stock upon settlement of Purchase Contracts in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement,
the Company covenants to list such Common Stock issuable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts in accordance with the requirements of such exchange at such time. 

Section 11.07 Tax Treatment.

immunities thereunder of the Purchase Contract Agent, the Trustee, the Company, and the Holders and of the terms upon which the Purchase Contracts are, and are to be, executed and delivered. 

Each Purchase Contract evidenced hereby obligates the Company to deliver to the Holder of this Purchase Contract, on the Mandatory
Settlement Date, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Settlement Rate, unless such Purchase Contract settles prior to the Mandatory Settlement Date, in either case, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Contract Agreement. 

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon settlement of Purchase Contracts, as provided in Section 4.04 of the
Purchase Contract Agreement. 
 The Purchase Contracts are issuable only in registered form and only in denominations of a

Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Purchase Contract Agreement, the provisions of the Purchase Contract Agreement may be
amended with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the Purchase Contracts. 
 The Purchase Contracts, and any claim,
controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Purchase Contracts, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof. 

The Company, the Purchase Contract Agent and its Affiliates and any agent of the Company or the Purchase Contract Agent may treat the

thereof be overdue and notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, and neither the Company, the Purchase Contract Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the initial
principal sum of $5.246 for each of the number of Notes set forth above, or such other number of Notes as set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in the Note attached hereto, in quarterly installments (each constituting a payment of
interest at the rate per year of 7.00% and a partial repayment of principal) payable on each February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 commencing on August 15, 2010 (each such date, an “Installment Payment
Date” and the period from, and including, May 10, 2010 to, but excluding, the first Installment Payment Date and each subsequent full quarterly period from and including an Installment Payment Date to, but excluding, the immediately
succeeding Installment Payment Date, an “Installment Payment Period”), all as set forth on the reverse hereof, with the final installment due and payable on August 15, 2013. The installment amount payable on any Installment
Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. If an installment is payable for any period shorter than a full Installment Payment Period, such installment shall be computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any date on which an installment is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the installment on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and
without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such installment payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the
same force and effect as if made on the date when such installment payment was originally due. Installments shall be paid to the person in whose name the Note is registered, with limited exceptions, at the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the related Installment Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). If the Notes do not remain in book-entry only form, the Company shall have the right to select Regular Record Dates, noticed in writing in
advance, to the Trustee and Holders, which will be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant Installment Payment Date. Any such installment payment not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders at the close of business on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more successor Securities) is registered at the close of business on
a special record date to be fixed by

the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted installment, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders of the Notes not less than 15 days prior to such special record date, or
may be paid at any time 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, all as more fully provided in the
Indenture. Installments shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; provided, however, that payment of installments may be made at the option of
the Company by check mailed to the registered Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder entitled to payment. 

This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter referred to or be valid or obligatory for any purpose
until the Certificate of Authentication shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee. 
 The provisions of this Note
are continued on the reverse side hereof and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

 The Securities of
this series shall not be subject to redemption at the option of the Company. However, a Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase some or all of its Notes for cash at the Repurchase Price per Note to be repurchased on the
Repurchase Date, upon the occurrence of certain events and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 This
Security is not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and covenant defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Security upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth
therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, then (unless no declaration of acceleration or notice is required for such Event of Default) either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes of this series

  

 A-28 

 
then outstanding may declare the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series, and all interest accrued thereon, to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, subject to the
conditions and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided,
the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for certain purposes as described therein. 

Obligations Unconditional. No provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay installments on this Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed. 

Additional Terms. The Notes are originally being issued as part of the Company’s 7.25% Tangible Equity Units (the
“Units”) issued pursuant to that certain Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of May 10, 2010, between the Company, Trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as Purchase Contract Agent (the “Purchase Contract
Agreement”). Holders of the Units have the right to separate such Units into their constituent parts, consisting of Purchase Contracts (as defined in the Purchase Contract Agreement) and Notes, during the times, and under the circumstances,
described in the Purchase Contract Agreement. Following separation of any Unit into its constituent parts, the Notes are transferable independently from the Purchase Contracts. In addition, separated Notes can be recombined with separated Purchase
Contracts to recreate Units, as provided for in the Purchase Contract Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Purchase Contract Agreement for a more complete description of the terms thereof applicable to the Units and Notes. 

Transfer and Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this

a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations
and for the same aggregate principal amount, shall be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of
this series are initially issued in registered, global form without coupons in initial minimum denominations of one Note and integral multiples in excess thereof. 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this
Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Note and the Indenture, and
any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or this Note, shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws
provisions thereof. 
 All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of any installment on this
Note, or for any claim based hereon, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor
corporation, either directly or through the Company or of any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment of penalty or otherwise; and all such personal liability is

 Each installment payment for any Installment Payment Period shall be computed on the basis
of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If an installment is payable for any period shorter than a full Installment Payment Period, such installment shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month.
Furthermore, if any date on which an installment is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the installment on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and without any interest or other payment in respect of
any such delay. However, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, then such installment payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the date when
such installment payment was originally due. 
 (c) Restrictions Applicable During a Default Under the Indenture.

 (i) If there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default under the Indenture, then: 

(1) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not declare or pay any dividend on, make any distributions relating to, or
redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment relating to, any of its capital stock or make any guarantee payment with respect thereto other than: 

(A) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any
employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants; 

(B) purchases of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy stock
existing prior to such Default, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan; 
 (C) as a
result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock for any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock; 

(D) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or
exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or 
 (E) purchases of
the Company’s capital stock in connection with the distribution thereof; and 
  

 10 

 (2) the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not make any payment of
interest, principal or premium on, or repay, purchase or redeem, any debt securities or guarantees issued by the Company that rank equally with or junior to the Notes other than pro rata payments of accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes
and any other debt securities or guarantees issued by the Company that rank equally with the Notes, except and to the extent the terms of any such debt securities would prohibit the Company from making such pro rata payment. 

These foregoing restrictions shall not apply to any stock dividends paid by the Company where the dividend stock is the same stock as
that on which the dividend is being paid. 
 Section 2.04 Maturity Date. The date on which the final installment
payment on the Notes shall be due, unless the Notes are accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof or otherwise paid prior to maturity in connection with a Holder’s exercise of the Repurchase Right, shall be August 15, 2013. 

Section 2.05 Ranking. The obligations of the Company arising under or in connection with this Indenture and every
outstanding Note issued under this Indenture from time to time constitute and shall constitute an unsecured general obligation of the Company, ranking equal in right of payment to all other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated
Indebtedness of the Company and ranking senior in right of payment to any future Indebtedness of the Company that is expressly made subordinate to the Notes by the terms of such Indebtedness. 

Section 2.06 Additional Terms. The Notes are originally being issued as part of the Units. Holders of the Units have the
right to separate such Units into their constituent parts, consisting of Purchase Contracts and Notes, during the times, and under the circumstances, described in Section 2.03 of the Purchase Contract Agreement. Following separation of any Unit into
its constituent parts, the Notes are transferable independently from the Purchase Contracts. In addition, separated Notes can be recombined with separated Purchase Contracts to recreate Units, as provided for in Section 2.04 of the Purchase Contract
Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Purchase Contract Agreement for a more complete description of the terms thereof applicable to the Units and Notes.

The Company shall not be required to repurchase a portion of a Note. In addition, a Holder shall not have the right to require the Company to repurchase any or all of such Holder’s Notes in connection with any Early Settlement of such
Holder’s Purchase Contracts at the Holder’s option at the Early Settlement Rate in accordance with the Purchase Contract Agreement. 

Section 4.02 Procedures for Exercise. 
  

 11 

 (a) To exercise the Repurchase Right, a Holder must deliver, on or before the second
Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date, the Notes to be repurchased to the Paying Agent (or the Units to the Purchase Contract Agent, if (x) the Early Mandatory Settlement Date occurs on or after the Repurchase Date and
(y) the Notes have not been separated from the Units), together with a duly completed written Repurchase Notice, in each case in accordance with appropriate DTC procedures, unless the Notes are not in the form of a Global Note, in which case
such Holder must deliver the Notes to be repurchased to the Paying Agent or the Units that include the Notes to be repurchased to the Purchase Contract Agent (if (x) the Early Mandatory Settlement Date occurs on or after the Repurchase Date and (y)
the Notes have not been separated from the Units), duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, together with a Repurchase Notice, to the Paying Agent. 

(b) The Repurchase Notice must state the following: 

(i) if certificated Notes or Units have been issued, the certificate numbers of the Notes or Units, or if the Notes are in the form of a
Global Note, the Repurchase Notice must comply with appropriate DTC procedures; 
 (ii) the number of Notes to be repurchased;
and 
 (iii) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and the
Indenture.

Contracts that are a component of Units prior to the Redemption Date, upon such exercise the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate on behalf of the Holder and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, Separate
Notes in same form and in the same number as the Notes comprising part of the Units. 
 Section 4.03 Withdrawal of
Repurchase Notice. 
 (a) A Holder may withdraw any Repurchase Notice (in whole or in part) by a written, irrevocable
notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent, with a copy to the Trustee and Company, prior to the close of business on the second Business Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date. 

(b) The notice of withdrawal must state the following: 

(i) the number of the withdrawn Notes; 

(ii) if certificated Notes or Units have been issued, the certificate numbers of the withdrawn Notes or Units, as applicable, or if the
Notes are in the form of a Global Note, the notice of withdrawal must comply with appropriate DTC procedures; and

Date. To effectuate such repurchase, the Company shall distribute in immediately available funds to the Paying Agent, on or prior to 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Repurchase Date, an amount or amounts sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price
with respect to those Notes for which the Repurchase Right has been exercised. A Holder electing to exercise the Repurchase Right shall receive payment of the Repurchase Price on the later of (i) the Repurchase Date and (ii) the time of book-entry
transfer or the delivery of the Notes (or Units, as applicable); provided, however, that if the Company remits the Repurchase Price to the Paying Agent after 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Repurchase Date, and such Holder would otherwise be
entitled to receive the Repurchase Price on the Repurchase Date in accordance with the foregoing clause, distribution of the Repurchase Price by the Paying Agent may be made on the next succeeding Business Day without additional interest and with
the same force and effect as if the Repurchase Price had been distributed on the Repurchase Date. 
 (b) If the Paying Agent
holds money on the Repurchase Date sufficient to pay the Repurchase Price with respect to those Notes, for which the Repurchase Right has been exercised, then (i) such Notes shall cease to be outstanding and interest shall cease to accrue
threreon (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes or Units, as applicable, is made or whether or not the Notes or Units, as applicable, are delivered as required herein); and (ii) all other rights of the Holder shall terminate (other
than the right to receive the Repurchase Price). 
 (c) The Company shall, in connection with any repurchase offer pursuant to
this Article IV, if required, (i) comply with the provisions of the tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable; and (ii) file a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Notes may be repurchased at the option of Holders if the principal amount thereof
has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Repurchase Date (except in the case of a Default by the Company of the payment of the Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes).

advance, to the Trustee and Holders, which will be more than 14 days but less than 60 days prior to the relevant Installment Payment Date. Any such installment payment not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date

of Securities issued under the Indenture may vary with respect to interest rates, issue dates, maturity, redemption, repayment, currency of payment and otherwise as provided in the Indenture. The Indenture further provides that securities of a

 The Securities of

Repurchase Date, upon the occurrence of certain events and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 This
Security is not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and covenant defeasance at any time of the indebtedness on this Security upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth
therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, then (unless no declaration of acceleration or notice is required for such Event of Default) either the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes of this series then outstanding may declare the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series, and all 
  

 A-R-1 

 
interest accrued thereon, to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, subject to the conditions and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not
less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for certain purposes as described therein. 

Obligations Unconditional. No provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay installments on this Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed. 

Additional Terms. The Notes are originally being issued as part of the Company’s 7.25% Tangible Equity Units (the
“Units”) issued pursuant to that certain Purchase Contract Agreement, dated as of May 10, 2010, between the Company, Trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as Purchase Contract Agent (the “Purchase Contract
Agreement”). Holders of the Units have the right to separate such Units into their constituent parts, consisting of Purchase Contracts (as defined in the Purchase Contract Agreement) and Notes, during the times, and under the circumstances,
described in the Purchase Contract Agreement. Following separation of any Unit into its constituent parts, the Notes are transferable independently from the Purchase Contracts. In addition, separated Notes can be recombined with separated Purchase
Contracts to recreate Units, as provided for in the Purchase Contract Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Purchase Contract Agreement for a more complete description of the terms thereof applicable to the Units and Notes. 

Transfer and Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this
Note shall be registered on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations
and for the same aggregate principal amount, shall be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of
this series are initially issued in registered, global form without coupons in initial minimum denominations of one Note and integral multiples in excess thereof. 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this
Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Note and the Indenture, and
any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to the Indenture or this Note, shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws
provisions thereof. 
 All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of any installment on this
Note, or for any claim based hereon, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future of the Company or of any predecessor or successor
corporation, either directly or through the Company or of any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment of penalty or otherwise; and all such personal liability is
expressly released and waived as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the issuance of this Note. 
 The Company
and each Holder agrees, for United States tax purposes, to treat the Notes as indebtedness.
