 ARTICLE III 

THE RIGHTS OFFERING AND BACKSTOP COMMITMENT 
 Section 3.1. The Rights Offering. 
 (a) As promptly as practicable
after the Common Stock Closing Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with the SEC the Registration Statement which shall register under the Securities Act the issuance of the Rights and the shares of Common
Stock to be issued in the Rights Offering (including the Backstop Shares). The Company shall not permit any securities other than the Rights and the Common Stock to be issued in the Rights Offering (including the Backstop Shares) to be included in
the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement (and any amendments thereto) and the Prospectus shall be provided to the Investor and its counsel prior to its filing with the SEC, and the Investor and its counsel shall be given a reasonable
opportunity to review and comment thereon. 
 (b) Following the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective
by the SEC, the Company shall file with the SEC and print the Prospectus Supplement, distribute copies of the Prospectus Supplement to the holders of record of Common Stock as of the Record Date, and thereafter, promptly commence a rights offering
on the following terms: (i) the Company shall distribute, one transferable right (“Rights”) to each holder of record of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held by such holder as of the Record Date; (ii) each Right
shall entitle the holder thereof to subscribe to purchase, at the election of such holder, a number of shares of Common Stock at the Subscription Price (the “Basic Subscription Privilege”), equal to such stockholder’s pro rata
portion of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate value of $150,000,000 million calculated at the Subscription Price (the actual aggregate number of shares of Common Stock, the “Aggregate Offered Shares”) where such pro rata
portion is calculated based upon the number of shares of Common Stock owned of record (as reflected in the stock ledger maintained by the Company’s transfer agent) by a stockholder on the Record Date relative to the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding on the Record Date; (iii) the offering shall remain open for thirty (30) days (or such longer period as may be required by Law) (the “Subscription Period”); and (iv) each holder (other than the
Investor and its Affiliates) who fully exercises its Basic Subscription Privilege shall be entitled to subscribe for additional shares of Common Stock at the Subscription Price pursuant to the instructions set forth in the Prospectus Supplement and
related materials to the extent that other holders elect not to exercise all of their respective Rights under the Basic Subscription Privilege (the “Oversubscription Privilege”); provided that if insufficient shares of Common
Stock are available to satisfy all oversubscription requests, such requests shall be honored on a pro rata basis in the manner set forth above (such rights offering, the “Rights Offering”). No fractional shares of Common Stock shall
be issued in connection with the Rights Offering. The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise by a holder of Rights will be rounded down 

  
 7 

 
to the next lowest whole number of shares of Common Stock. Unless and until a Special Committee exercises its right to cause the Investor to purchase Additional Shares pursuant to
Section 3.1(d), the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to engage in and complete the transactions contemplated in Sections 3.1(a) and 3.1(b) as promptly as practicable. 

(c) The Investor hereby agrees that it will exercise all of its Rights under its Basic Subscription Privilege; provided,
however, that if one or more stockholders of the Company fully exercise their Basic Subscription Privilege, and such stockholder(s) elect to subscribe for more shares of Common Stock than are otherwise available for the Oversubscription
Privilege pursuant to Section 3.1(b)(iv), the Investor and its Affiliates hereby agree to not exercise a number of Rights as may be necessary to satisfy the subscriptions submitted to the Company by such stockholders pursuant to
Section 3.1(b)(iv); provided, that in no event shall the number of Rights of the Investor and its Affiliates that the Investor agrees not to exercise pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) cause the aggregate beneficial
ownership of the Investor and its Affiliates of Common Stock to be less than the Threshold Amount. The Investor shall not subscribe for any shares of Common Stock under the Oversubscription Privilege. 

(d) In the event the Rights Offering is not consummated within 180 calendar days after the date hereof, then, for a period of 90 calendar
days following the expiration of such 180 calendar day period, upon the request of a Special Committee, acting on behalf of the Company, the Investor hereby agrees to purchase from the Company, as soon as practicable after the request of a Special
Committee (on a date selected by a Special Committee and in any case within 30 calendar days and with the amount being set forth in such request), additional shares of Common Stock having an aggregate value of up to $150,000,000 million at a price
equal to the volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported by Nasdaq obtained from Bloomberg L.P., for the trading hours from 9:30 am to 4:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time during the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of
such sale (the “Additional Shares”). The issuance and sale of the Additional Shares shall be subject to the receipt of any approval of the stockholders of the Company required under applicable Nasdaq rules. The Company and the
Investor agree to take all actions necessary to consummate the issuance and sale of the Additional Shares (including, without limitation, the execution by the Investor, in its capacity as a stockholder of the Company, of a written consent approving
the issuance and sale of the Additional Shares pursuant to this Section 3.1(d)). 
 (e) The Company shall not amend
any of the material terms of the Rights Offering described in clauses (i) through (iv) of Section 3.1(b) or waive any material conditions to the closing of the Rights Offering without the prior written consent of the Investor
and a Special Committee. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Rights Offering, the Company shall effect the closing of the Rights Offering as promptly as practicable following the end of the Subscription Period. 

(f) The Company shall pay all of its expenses associated with the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Rights Offering and the
other transactions contemplated hereby, including filing and printing fees, the fees and expenses of any subscription and information agents, the fees and expenses of its counsel, accounting fees and expenses and costs associated with clearing the
Common Stock offered for sale under applicable state securities Laws. 

  
 8 

 (g) The Investor shall provide to the Company such information as the Company may reasonably
require in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus. No such information provided by the Investor shall contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (i) at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Securities Act and as of the “new effective date” with respect to the Rights Offering
pursuant to, and within the meaning of, Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act, and (ii) as of the date of the Prospectus and the closing date of the Rights Offering and the Backstop Closing Date. 

Section 3.2. Backstop Commitment. 
 (a) The Investor shall purchase from the Company, and the Company shall issue and sell to the Investor, at a price per share equal to the Subscription Price, a number of shares of Common Stock (the
“Backstop Commitment”) equal to (i) the Aggregate Offered Shares minus (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for and purchased by the holders of record of Common Stock as of the Record Date under the
Basic Subscription Privilege and the Oversubscription Privilege. As soon as practicable (but not more than two Business Days) after the expiration of the Rights Offering, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a notice (the “Subscription
Notice”) setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock subscribed for in the Rights Offering and the number of shares of Common Stock to be acquired by the Investor pursuant to the Backstop Commitment. The shares of Common Stock
acquired by the Investor pursuant to the Backstop Commitment are collectively referred to as the “Backstop Shares.” 
 (b) On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the closing of the Backstop Commitment (the “Backstop Closing”) shall occur on the later of (i) three
Business Days following the closing of the Rights Offering and (ii) one Business Day following the date that all of the conditions to the Backstop Closing set forth in Article VI of this Agreement have been satisfied or waived
(other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Backstop Closing), at 10:00 a.m. (Central Standard Time) at the offices of Winston & Strawn LLP, 35 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60601 or such other place,
time and date as shall be agreed between the Company and the Investor (the date on which the Backstop Closing occurs, the “Backstop Closing Date”). 
 (c) At the Backstop Closing (i) the Company shall deliver to the Investor evidence of the issuance of the Backstop Shares in the name of the Investor against payment by or on behalf of the Investor
of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company shall deliver all other documents and certificates required to be delivered to the Investor
pursuant to Section 6.5, and (iii) the Investor shall deliver all documents and certificates required to be delivered to the Company pursuant to Section 6.4.

 18

Company (other than the Investor, with respect to its rights under this Agreement against the Company) relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the date hereof the Investor, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its Affiliates and each of their respective

including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as
provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 9.2 unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced by the failure of such Indemnified Party to so
notify the Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail such claim. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, provided that

assume the defense of such proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party in any such proceeding; or (iii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such
Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in
which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and
shall be liable for the reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses of one law firm retained by the Indemnified Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its

involve the issuance of a Physical Note shall be effected through the Depositary (but not the Trustee or the Custodian) in accordance with this Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary
therefor. 
 (c) Every Note that bears or is required under this Section 2.05(c) to bear the legend set forth in this
Section 2.05(c) (together with any Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes and required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), collectively, the “Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (including those contained in the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of the Company with notice to
the Trustee as provided below. The Holder of each such Restricted Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on transfer. As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term
“transfer” encompasses any sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security. 

Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any certificate evidencing a Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or
substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon conversion thereof which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless such Notes have been
transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or sold pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by
Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee): 
 THE SALE OF THIS NOTE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, PRIOR TO THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE (AS
DEFINED BELOW), THIS NOTE AND ANY SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS NOTE (AND ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN OR THEREIN) MAY NOT BE OFFERED, RESOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT: 

 

	 	(A)	TO THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES; 

  
 16 

	 	(B)	PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; 

 

	 	(C)	TO A PERSON THAT YOU REASONABLY BELIEVE TO BE A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; OR 

 

	 	(D)	UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (INCLUDING, IF AVAILABLE, THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT). 

 THE “RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE” MEANS THE DATE: (A) THAT IS AT LEAST
ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUANCE DATE OF THE NOTES (INCLUDING ANY ISSUANCE OF ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF THE INITIAL PURCHASERS’ OPTION TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL NOTES); AND (B) ON WHICH THE COMPANY HAS
INSTRUCTED THE TRUSTEE THAT THIS LEGEND WILL NO LONGER APPLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE. 

PRIOR TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING CLAUSES (C) AND (D), THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE
DELIVERY OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS (WITH RESPECT TO CLAUSE (D) ONLY) OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND RELY UPON TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION
NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 DURING THE PERIOD ENDING ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST DATE OF
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THE NOTES, NO “AFFILIATE” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144) WILL BE PERMITTED TO RESELL ANY OF THE NOTES THAT CONSTITUTE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” UNDER RULE 144 THAT HAVE BEEN REACQUIRED BY ANY OF THEM. 

No transfer of any Note prior to the Resale Restriction Termination Date will be registered by the Note Registrar unless the applicable
box on the Form of Assignment and Transfer has been checked. 
 Any Note (or security issued in exchange or substitution
therefor) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of such Note for exchange to the Note Registrar in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.05, be exchanged for a
new Note or Notes, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall be entitled to instruct the
Custodian in writing to so surrender any Global Note as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms for exchange, and, upon such instruction, the Custodian shall so

  
 17 

 
surrender such Global Note for exchange; and any new Global Note so exchanged therefor shall not bear the restrictive legend specified in this Section 2.05(c) and shall not be assigned a
restricted CUSIP number. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date. Upon such notice, the legend set forth above shall be deemed removed from the Note, with no further action
required by the Company, the Trustee, or, if applicable, the Depositary. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Holders after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of
the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture (other
than the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(c)), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole or in part except (i) 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 or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary and (ii) for transfers of portions of a Global Note in certificated form made upon request of a member of, or
a participant in, the Depositary (for itself or on behalf of a beneficial owner) by written notice given to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary procedures of the Depositary and in compliance with this
Section 2.05(c). 
 The Depositary shall be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act. The Company initially
appoints DTC to act as Depositary with respect to each Global Note. Initially, each Global Note shall be issued to the Depositary, registered in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee of the Depositary, and deposited with the Trustee as
custodian for Cede & Co. 
 If (i) the Depositary notifies the Company at any time that the Depositary is
unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is
not appointed within 90 days, (iii) an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of any Note requests that its beneficial interest therein be issued as a Physical Note or (iv) the
Company and a beneficial owner of any Note so agree, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer’s Certificate and a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of Notes, shall authenticate and deliver
(x) in the case of clause (iii) or (iv), a Physical Note to such beneficial owner in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Note corresponding such beneficial owner’s beneficial interest and (y) in the case of
clause (i) or (ii), Physical Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange for such Global Notes, and
upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled. 
 Physical Notes issued in exchange for
all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall
instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in whose names such Physical Notes are so registered. 

  
 18 

 At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, repurchased or
transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Physical Notes, converted,
canceled, repurchased or transferred to a transferee who receives Physical Notes therefor or any Physical Note is exchanged or transferred for part of such Global Note, the principal amount of such Global Note shall, in accordance with the
Trustee’s customary procedures, be appropriately reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on the Schedule of Exchanges of such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to
reflect such reduction or increase. 
 The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to
compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among Depositary participants or beneficial owners of
interests in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same
to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof. 
 Neither the Trustee nor any agent of the
Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any actions taken or not taken by the Depositary. 
 Neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note or maintaining, supervising
or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. 
 The Trustee shall have the right to decline to
authenticate and deliver any Notes under this Section if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that such action would expose the Trustee to
personal liability to existing Holders. 
 (d) Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any stock certificate representing
Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless the Note or such Common Stock has been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under
the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or such Common Stock has been
issued upon conversion of Notes that have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or pursuant to the
exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company with written notice thereof to the Trustee and any transfer agent for the Common Stock):

  
 19 

 THE SALE OF THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND ACCORDINGLY, PRIOR TO THE RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE (AS DEFINED BELOW), THIS SECURITY (AND ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN) MAY NOT BE OFFERED, RESOLD, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, EXCEPT:

  

	 	(A)	TO THE COMPANY OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES; 

  

	 	(B)	PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT THAT HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT; OR 

 

	 	(C)	UNDER ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (INCLUDING, IF AVAILABLE, THE EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT). 

 THE “RESALE RESTRICTION TERMINATION DATE” MEANS THE DATE: (A) THAT IS AT LEAST
ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST ORIGINAL ISSUANCE DATE OF THE COMPANY’S 3.00% CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES DUE 2017 (INCLUDING THE LAST DATE OF ISSUANCE OF ANY ADDITIONAL NOTES PURSUANT TO THE EXERCISE OF THE INITIAL PURCHASERS’ OPTION TO PURCHASE
ADDITIONAL NOTES); AND (B) ON WHICH THE COMPANY HAS INSTRUCTED THE TRUSTEE THAT THIS LEGEND WILL NO LONGER APPLY, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE FOR THE NOTES. 

PRIOR TO ANY TRANSFER PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING CLAUSE (C), THE COMPANY AND THE TRANSFER AGENT RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY
OF SUCH CERTIFICATIONS, LEGAL OPINIONS OR OTHER INFORMATION AS THEY MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE AND RELY UPON TO CONFIRM THAT SUCH TRANSFER IS BEING MADE PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF
THE SECURITIES ACT. 
 DURING THE PERIOD ENDING ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST DATE OF ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THE NOTES, NO
“AFFILIATE” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144) WILL BE PERMITTED TO RESELL ANY SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUED UPON CONVERSION OF THE NOTES THAT CONSTITUTE “RESTRICTED SECURITIES” UNDER RULE 144 THAT HAVE BEEN REACQUIRED BY ANY OF THEM.

 Any such Common Stock as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon
surrender of the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of

  
 20 

 
shares of Common Stock, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d). 
 (e) The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its controlled “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144) to, resell any of the Notes or any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of
any Note that constitute “restricted securities” under Rule 144 that have been reacquired by any of them. 

Section 2.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or
stolen, the Company in its discretion may execute, and upon its written request in a Company Order, the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver a new Note, bearing a registration number not
contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Company, to the
Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless from any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case
of destruction, loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership
thereof. 
 The Trustee or such authenticating agent may authenticate any such substituted Note and deliver the same upon the
receipt of such security or indemnity as the Trustee, the Company and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note Registrar for any exchange
or registration of transfer of any substitute Note, but, upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Company or the Trustee may require the payment by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any Note that has matured or is about to mature or has been surrendered for required repurchase or is about to be converted in accordance with Article XIII shall
become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company may, in its sole discretion, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of or convert or authorize the conversion of the same (without surrender thereof except in
the case of a mutilated Note), as the case may be, if the applicant for such payment or conversion shall furnish to the Company, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
save each of them harmless for any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Company, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying
Agent or Conversion Agent of the destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof. 
 Every substitute Note
issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 by virtue of the fact that any Note is destroyed, lost or stolen shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note
shall be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of (but shall be subject to all the limitations set forth in) this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. To the extent
permitted by law, all Notes shall be held and owned upon the express condition that the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment 

  
 21 

 
or conversion or repurchase of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter enacted
to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment or conversion of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender. 
 Section 2.07 Temporary Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Company may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written request
of the Company in a Company Order, authenticate and deliver temporary Notes (printed or lithographed). Temporary Notes shall be issuable in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the Physical Notes but with such omissions,
insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Notes, all as may be determined by the Company. Every such temporary Note shall be executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same
conditions and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global
Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes (other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Company pursuant to Section 4.02 and the Trustee or such authenticating agent shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange for such temporary Notes an equal aggregate principal amount of Physical Notes. Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary
Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same limitations under this Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder. 
 Section 2.08 Cancellation of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Company shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, registration of transfer or exchange or
conversion, if surrendered to the Company or the Company’s agents, Subsidiaries or Affiliates, to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee shall be canceled promptly by it, and no Notes shall be
authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. The Trustee shall dispose of canceled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures and, after such disposition, shall deliver a
certificate of such disposition to the Company. If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption, repurchase or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.09 CUSIP Numbers. The Company in issuing the Notes may use
“CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in all notices issued to Holders as a convenience to such Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no
representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or on such notice and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be
affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers. 
 Section 2.10 Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and issue additional

  
 22 

 
Notes hereunder with the same terms and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes initially issued hereunder in an unlimited aggregate principal amount; provided that if any such additional
Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall deliver to the
Trustee a Company Order, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such Officer’s Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters required by Section 15.05, and such Opinion of Counsel to include a customary legal
opinion as to the enforceability under New York law of such additional Notes, which opinion may contain customary exceptions and qualifications. In addition, the Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of
whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), repurchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements,
including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance
with Section 2.08. 
 ARTICLE III 
 SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE 

Section 3.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall, upon request of the Company contained in an Officer’s
Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the expense and request of of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when (a) (i) all Notes theretofore
authenticated and delivered (other than (x) Notes which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.06 and (y) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust
or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 4.04(d)) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or (ii) the Company has deposited with
the Trustee or delivered to Holders, as applicable, after the Notes have become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or cash and shares of Common Stock, if any
(solely to satisfy the Company’s Conversion Obligation, if applicable), sufficient to pay all of the outstanding Notes and all other sums due and payable under this Indenture by the Company; and (b) the Company has delivered to the Trustee
an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 7.06 shall survive. 
 ARTICLE IV

 PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY 

Section 4.01 Payment of Principal and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees that it will cause to be paid the principal
(including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, each of the Notes at the places, at the respective times and in the manner provided herein and in the Notes. 

  
 23 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture, the Company may, to
the extent it is required to do so by law, deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America from principal, premium or interest (including any Additional Interest) payments hereunder. 

Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain an office in Los Angeles, California, or any other
office so designated by the Trustee, where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or for presentation for payment or repurchase (“Paying Agent”) or for conversion (“Conversion Agent”)
and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If
at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office
or the office or agency of the Trustee in Los Angeles, California, or any other office so designated by the Trustee as a place where Notes may be presented for payment or for registration of transfer. 

The Company may also from time to time designate as co-Note Registrars one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be
presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office in Los
Angeles, California, or any other office so designated by the Trustee as a place for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other
office or agency. The terms “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent” include any such additional or other offices or agencies, as applicable. 
 The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as the Paying Agent, Note Registrar, Custodian and Conversion Agent and the Corporate Trust Office and the office of the Trustee in Los Angeles,
California, or any other office so designated by the Trustee, each shall be considered as one such office or agency of the Company for each of the aforesaid purposes. 
 Section 4.03 Appointments to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided
in Section 7.08, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder. 
 Section 4.04 Provisions as
to Paying Agent. (a) If the Company shall appoint a Paying Agent other than the Trustee, the Company will cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject
to the provisions of this Section 4.04: 
 (i) that it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the
payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes; 

  
 24 

 (ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by
the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall be due and payable; and 

(iii) that at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon request of the Trustee, it will forthwith pay
to the Trustee all sums so held in trust. 
 The Company shall, on or before each due date of the principal (including the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) or accrued
and unpaid interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action; provided that if such deposit is made on the due date, such deposit must be
received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date. 
 (b) If the Company shall act as its own Paying
Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Holders
of the Notes a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and accrued and unpaid interest so becoming due and will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action
and of any failure by the Company to make any payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes when the same shall become due and payable. 

(c) Anything in this Section 4.04 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, or for any other reason, pay, cause to be paid or deliver to the Trustee all sums or amounts held in trust by the Company or any Paying Agent hereunder as required by this Section 4.04, such sums or
amounts to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained and upon such payment or delivery by the Company or any Paying Agent to the Trustee, the Company or such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability but only with
respect to such sums or amounts. 
 (d) Any money and shares of Common Stock deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or
then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal
(including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officer’s Certificate, or (if then held by the Company) shall be
discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money and
shares of Common Stock, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 
 Section 4.05
Existence. Subject to Article XI, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence. 

  
 25 

 Section 4.06 Rule 144A Information Requirement and Annual Reports. (a) At
any time the Company is not subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, the Company shall, so long as any of the Notes (or any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) shall, at such time, constitute “restricted
securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, upon written request, provide to the Trustee, any Holder, beneficial owner or prospective purchaser of such Notes or shares of Common Stock, the information required to
be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. 
 (b) The Company shall file with the Trustee within 15 days after the same are required to be filed with the Commission (taking into account any applicable grace periods provided thereunder), copies of any
documents or reports that the Company is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (excluding any such information, documents or reports, or portions thereof, subject to confidential treatment and
any correspondence with the Commission). Any such document or report that the Company files with the Commission via the Commission’s EDGAR system shall be deemed to be filed with the Trustee for purposes of this Section 4.06(b) at the time
such documents are filed via the EDGAR system, it being understood that the Trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether such filings have been made. 
 (c) Delivery of the reports and documents described in subsection (b) above to the Trustee is for informational purposes only, and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive
notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an
Officer’s Certificate). 
 (d) If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date that is
six months after the last date of original issuance of the Notes, the Company fails to timely file any document or report that it is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as applicable (after
giving effect to all applicable grace periods thereunder and other than reports on Form 8-K), or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (as a result of restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities
law or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes), the Company shall pay Additional Interest on the Notes. Such Additional Interest shall accrue on the Notes at the rate of 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for
each day during such period for which the Company’s failure to file has occurred and is continuing. As used in this Section 4.06(d), documents or reports that the Company is required to “file” with the Commission pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act do not include documents or reports that the Company furnishes to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. 

(e) If, and for so long as, the restrictive legend on the Notes specified in Section 2.05(c) has not been removed (or deemed removed
pursuant to this Indenture), the Notes are assigned a restricted CUSIP number or the Notes are not otherwise freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the terms of
this Indenture or the Notes) as of the 380th day after the last date of original issuance of the Notes, the Company shall pay Additional Interest on the Notes at a rate equal to 0.50% per

annum of the principal amount of Notes outstanding until the restrictive legend on the Notes has been removed in accordance with Section 2.05(c), the Notes are assigned an unrestricted CUSIP
number and the Notes are freely tradable by Holders other than the Company’s Affiliates (without restrictions pursuant to U.S. securities law or the terms of this Indenture or the Notes). 

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Additional Interest will accrue or be payable under Section 4.06(e) on any date on which (i)
(w) the Company has filed a Shelf Registration Statement for the resale of the Notes and any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, (x) such Shelf Registration Statement is effective and usable by Holders identified
therein as selling security Holders for the resale of the Notes and any shares of Common Stock issued upon exchange of the Notes, (y) the Holders may register the resale of their Notes under such Shelf Registration Statement on terms customary
for the resale of convertible or exchangeable securities offered in reliance on Rule 144A, and (z) the Notes and/or shares of Common Stock sold pursuant to such Shelf Registration Statement become freely tradable as a result of such sale; or
(ii) after the Company has complied with the requirements set forth in clause (i) above for a period of one year, no further Additional Interest shall be payable under Section 4.06(e). 

(g) Additional Interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following accrual in the same manner as regular interest
on the Notes. 
 (h) The Additional Interest that is payable in accordance with Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e)
shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any Additional Interest that may be payable as a result of the Company’s election pursuant to Section 6.03. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Additional Interest accrue under the
terms of this Indenture (aggregating any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e) with any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 6.03) at a rate per year in excess of 0.50%, regardless of
the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay such Additional Interest. 
 (i) If Additional
Interest is payable by the Company pursuant to Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e), the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to that effect stating (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is
payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives at the Corporate Trust Office such a certificate, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no such
Additional Interest is payable. If the Company has paid Additional Interest directly to the Persons entitled to it, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the particulars of such payment. 

Section 4.07 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall
not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of or
interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly
waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the 

  
 27 

 
execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

Section 4.08 Compliance Certificate; Statements as to Defaults. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2012) an Officer’s Certificate stating whether or not the signers thereof have knowledge of any failure by the Company to comply with
all conditions and covenants then required to be performed under this Indenture and, if so, specifying each such failure and the nature thereof. 
 In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee, as soon as possible, and in any event within 30 days after the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Default, an
Officer’s Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or Default, its status and the action that the Company is taking or proposing to take in respect thereof. 

Section 4.09 Notice of Maturity Date. The Company will provide the Trustee and the Holders written notice as promptly as
practicable (but in no event later than the close of business on November 26, 2017) if it determines that the Maturity Date will not be November 27, 2017 pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof. 

ARTICLE V

each year beginning with May 13, 2013, and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after receipt by the Company of any such request (or such lesser time as the Trustee may reasonably request in order to enable

practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the Holders contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 or maintained by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar, if so acting. The Trustee
may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in Section 5.01 upon receipt of a new list so furnished. 
 ARTICLE VI

 (g) default (x) by the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company in the payment when
due, after the expiration of any applicable grace period, of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any indebtedness for money borrowed in the aggregate principal amount then outstanding of $10,000,000 or more, or (y) resulting in
the acceleration of the Company’s or the Company’s Subsidiaries’ indebtedness for money borrowed having an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or more so that it becomes due and payable before the date on which it would
otherwise have become due and payable, if such default is not cured or waived, or such acceleration is not rescinded, as the case may be, within 30 days after written notice to the Company from the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of Notes then outstanding in accordance with this Indenture; 
 (h) a final judgment for the payment of $10,000,000 or

expired if no such appeal has commenced, or (ii) the date on which all rights to appeal have been extinguished; 
 (i) the
Company or any Significant Subsidiary shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or any such Significant Subsidiary or its debts under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official of the Company or any such Significant Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property,
or shall consent to any such relief or to the appointment of or taking possession by any such official in an involuntary case or other proceeding commenced 

  
 29 

 
against it, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail generally to pay its debts as they become due; or 

(j) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary seeking liquidation,
reorganization or other relief with respect to the Company or such Significant Subsidiary or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator,
custodian or other similar official of the Company or such Significant Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 30 consecutive days.

 Section 6.02 Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. In case one or more Events of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
administrative or governmental body), then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries), unless the
principal of all of the Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, by notice in
writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall
automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) with respect to the Company occurs
and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable. 
 The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or
decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay installments of accrued and unpaid interest upon all Notes and the
principal of any and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of accrued and unpaid interest to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, and on
such principal at the rate borne by the Notes) and amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all
existing Events of Default under this Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on Notes that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured or waived pursuant to
Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee,
may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Notes and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured
for every purpose of this 

  
 30 

 
Indenture; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, any Notes or
(ii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes. 
 Section 6.03 Additional Interest in Lieu of Reporting Default. Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for
Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) shall after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the
Notes at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for each day during the 365-day period on which such Event of Default is continuing beginning on, and including, the calendar day following the date on
which such an Event of Default first occurs to, and including, the 366th day following such Event of Default (or, if earlier, the date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived as provided for in this Indenture). Additional Interest payable
pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be in addition to, not in lieu of, any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e). If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same
manner and on the same dates as regular interest on the Notes. On the 366th day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.06(b) is not
cured or waived prior to such 366th day), the Notes will be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this
Section 6.03, the Notes shall be subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 
 In order to elect to pay
Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 365 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify in writing all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent of such election prior to the beginning of such 365-day period. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. 

In no event shall Additional Interest accrue under the terms of this Indenture (aggregating any Additional Interest payable pursuant to
this Section 6.03 with any Additional Interest payable pursuant to Section 4.06(d) or Section 4.06(e)) at a rate per year in excess of 0.50%, regardless of the number of events or circumstances giving rise to the requirement to pay
such Additional Interest. 
 The Trustee shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine
Additional Interest, or with respect to the nature, extent or calculation of the amount of Additional Interest owed, or with respect to the method employed in such calculation of Additional Interest. 

Section 6.04 Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of
Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with
interest on any 

  
 31 

 
overdue principal and interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover any amounts due to the Trustee
under Section 7.06. If the Company shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid,
may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of
the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated. 
 In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the
bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Notes under title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator,
sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or
such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6.04, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims
for the whole amount of principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem
necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial
proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same
after the deduction of any amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by each of the Holders to make such
payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and
disbursements, including agents and counsel fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 7.06, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses,
advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other
property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. 
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding. 

  
 32 

 All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the
Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the
Holders of the Notes. 
 In any proceedings brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any
provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Holders of the Notes parties to any such proceedings. 

In case the Trustee shall have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or
abandoned because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.09 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.02 or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Company, the
Holders, and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be restored respectively to their several positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Holders, and the Trustee shall
continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 6.05 Application of Monies Collected by
Trustee. Any monies collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article VI with respect to the Notes shall be applied in the order following, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such monies, upon presentation of the
several Notes, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon surrender thereof, if fully paid: 
 First, to
the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.06; 
 Second, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes
shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on, and any cash due upon conversion of, the Notes in default in the order of the date due of the payments of such interest and cash due upon conversion, as the case may be, with
interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue payments at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto; 

Third, in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, and be unpaid to the payment of
the whole amount (including, if applicable, the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and any cash due upon conversion) then owing and unpaid upon the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on the overdue principal and,
to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee, upon overdue installments of interest at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, and in case such monies shall be insufficient to pay in full the whole amounts so due and unpaid
upon the Notes, then to the payment of such principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the cash due upon conversion) and interest without preference or priority of principal over interest, or of interest over
principal or of any installment of interest over any 

  
 33 

 
other installment of interest, or of any Note over any other Note, ratably to the aggregate of such principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and any cash due
upon conversion) and accrued and unpaid interest; and 
 Fourth, to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Company.

 Section 6.06 Proceedings by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal
(including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of
any provision of this Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, custodian or other similar official, or for
any other remedy hereunder, unless: 
 (a) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of
Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided; 
 (b) Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to pursue such remedy hereunder; 
 (c) such Holders
shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense to be incurred therein or thereby; 
 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of the request and offer of security or indemnity, had not complied with such request; and 

(e) no direction that, in the opinion of the Trustee, is inconsistent with such written request shall have been given to the Trustee by
the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding within such 60-day period pursuant to Section 6.09, 
 it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by the taker and Holder of every Note with every other taker and Holder and the Trustee that no one or more Holders shall have any right in
any manner whatever by virtue of or by availing of any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holder, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any
right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Holders (except as otherwise provided herein) (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain
whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders). For the protection and enforcement of this Section 6.06, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law
or in equity. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to
receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion
of, such Note, on or after the 

  
 34 

 
respective due dates expressed or provided for in such Note or in this Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be, on or after such
respective dates against the Company shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.07
Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as are necessary to protect and
enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any
power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by law. 
 Section 6.08 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing. Except as provided in the last paragraph of Section 2.06, all powers and remedies given by this Article VI to the Trustee or to the
Holders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the Holders of the Notes, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the
performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall
impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this Article VI or by law
to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders. 
 Section 6.09 Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. The Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding
determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to
Notes; provided, however, that such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction.
The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes
at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, on, or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Company to the
consideration due upon conversion of the Notes or (iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article X cannot be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected. Upon any such
waiver the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereon. Whenever any Default or 

  
 35 

 
Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by this Section 6.09, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Notes and this Indenture be deemed to have
been cured and to be not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.10 Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after it receives written notice of the occurrence and continuance of a Default, send to all Holders as the names and
addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register, notice of all such Defaults, unless such Defaults shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the
principal of (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), or accrued and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the Trustee shall be protected in
withholding such notice if and so long as it in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders. 
 Section 6.11 Undertaking to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by its acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may, in
its discretion, require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an
undertaking to pay the costs of such suit and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good
faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided that the provisions of this Section 6.11 (to the extent permitted by law) shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder,
or group of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on any Note (including, but not limited to, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to the Notes being repurchased as provided in this Indenture) on or after the due date expressed or
provided for in such Note or to any suit for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

 Section 7.01 Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of
Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture. In case an Event of Default has occurred that has not
been cured or waived the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of such person’s own affairs; provided that if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers under this Indenture at the request or direction of any
of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee against the 

  
 36 

 
costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. 
 No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except
that: 
 (a) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default that may
have occurred: 
 (i) the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture
against the Trustee; and 
 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such
certificates or opinions that by any provisions hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture
(but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein); 
 (b) the
Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

authorized or within the rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding determined as provided in

 37 

 
Company or any Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Note Registrar with respect to the Notes; 
 (g) if any party fails to deliver a notice relating to an event the fact of which, pursuant to this Indenture, requires notice to be sent to the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely on its failure
to receive such notice as reason to act as if no such event occurred, unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event; 
 (h) in the absence of written investment direction from the Company, all cash received by the Trustee shall be placed in a non-interest bearing trust account, and in no event shall the Trustee be liable
for the selection of investments or for investment losses, fees, taxes or other costs incurred with respect thereto or for losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party
directing such investments prior to its maturity date or the failure of the party directing such investment to provide timely written investment direction, and the Trustee shall have no obligation to invest or reinvest any amounts held hereunder in
the absence of such written investment direction from the Company; and 
 (i) in the event that the Trustee is also acting as
Custodian, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or transfer agent hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article VII shall also be afforded to such Custodian, Note Registrar,
Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or transfer agent. 
 None of the provisions contained in this Indenture
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers. 

Section 7.02 Reliance on Documents, Opinions, Etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

 38 

 (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and require an Opinion of Counsel

such request or direction. 
 In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any special, indirect, punitive or

with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes, unless either (1) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default or (2) written notice of such Default or Event of

  
 39 

 
Default is received by the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

Section 7.03 No Responsibility for Recitals, Etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except in the
Trustee’s certificate of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Indenture or of the Notes. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Notes or the proceeds of any Notes authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.

 Section 7.04 Trustee, Paying Agents, Conversion Agents, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar May Own
Notes. The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes with the same rights it would have if it were not the
Trustee, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note Registrar. 
 Section 7.05 Monies and Shares of
Common Stock to Be Held in Trust. All monies and any shares of Common Stock received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received. Money and any shares of
Common Stock held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds or property except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money or shares of any Common Stock received by
it hereunder except as may be agreed from time to time in writing by the Company and the Trustee. 
 Section 7.06
Compensation and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder in any capacity (which
shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) as mutually agreed to in writing between the Trustee and the Company, and the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for
all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances reasonably incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and
disbursements of its agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as shall have been caused by its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also covenants to indemnify
the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction entered into in connection herewith and their agents and any authenticating agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss,
claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any other Person), damage, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such agent or
authenticating agent, as the case may be, and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or in any other capacity hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim of
liability in the premises. The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate or indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall be secured by a senior claim to which
the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or 

  
 40 

 
collected by the Trustee, except, subject to the effect of Section 6.05, funds held in trust herewith for the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. The Trustee’s right to receive
payment of any amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall not be subordinate to any other liability or indebtedness of the Company. The obligation of the Company under this Section 7.06 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this
Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The indemnification provided in this Section 7.06 shall
extend to the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Trustee. 
 Without prejudice to any other rights available to
the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or Section 6.01(j) occurs, the expenses (including the
reasonable charges and expenses of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws. 

Section 7.07 Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is
eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. 

Section 7.08 Resignation or Removal of Trustee. (a) The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice
of such resignation to the Company and by mailing notice thereof to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and
have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee, or any Holder who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the
appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor trustee. 
 (b) In case at any time any of the following shall occur: 
 (i) the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.07 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or 

  
 41 

 (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 
 then, in either case, the Company may by a Board Resolution remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee, or, subject to the provisions of Section 6.11, any Holder
who has been a bona fide holder of a Note or Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of himself or herself and all others similarly situated, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the
Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed
and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of removal to the Holders, the Trustee being removed may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee with respect to the Notes. 
 (c) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding, as determined in accordance with Section 8.04, may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor trustee by so notifying the Trustee and the Company in writing not less than 30 days prior to the effective date of such
removal. If within ten days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, the Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.08 provided, may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for an appointment of a successor trustee. 
 (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and
appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 7.08 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.09. 

Section 7.09 Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 7.08 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request
of the Company or of the successor trustee, the trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the
rights and powers of the trustee so ceasing to act. Upon request of any such successor trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor trustee all such
rights and powers. Any trustee ceasing to act shall, nevertheless, retain a senior claim to which the Notes are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by such trustee as such, except for funds held in trust for the
benefit of Holders of particular Notes, to secure any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.06. 

  
 42 

 No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.09 unless
at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.07. 
 Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.09, each of the Company and the successor trustee, at the written direction and at the expense of the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed notice of the
succession of such trustee hereunder to the Holders at their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. If the Company fails to mail such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor
trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company. 
 The Trustee shall have no responsibility or
liability for the action or inaction of a successor trustee. 
 Section 7.10 Succession by Merger, Etc. Any
corporation or other entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the administration of this Indenture), shall be the successor to the Trustee hereunder without the execution or filing
of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided that in the case of any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee such corporation or
other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 7.07. 
 In case at the time such successor to the Trustee
shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture, any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or authenticating agent
appointed by such predecessor trustee, and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by such successor trustee
may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor trustee hereunder or in the name of the successor trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Notes or in this Indenture
provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor trustee shall
apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 7.11 Trustee’s
Application for Instructions from the Company. Any application by the Trustee for written instructions from the Company (other than with regard to any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Trustee that affects the rights of
the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture) may, at the option of the Trustee, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted by the Trustee under this Indenture and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken or
such omission shall be effective. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by, or omission of, the Trustee in accordance with a proposal included in such application on or after the date specified in such application (which date shall
not be less than three Business Days after the date any officer that the Company has indicated to the Trustee should receive such application actually receives such application, unless any such

  
 43 

 
officer shall have consented in writing to any earlier date), unless, prior to taking any such action (or the effective date in the case of any omission), the Trustee shall have received written
instructions in accordance with this Indenture in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted. 

ARTICLE VIII 

CONCERNING THE HOLDERS 

Section 8.01 Action by Holders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders of a specified percentage
of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice, consent or waiver or the taking of any other action), the fact that at the time of taking any such action,
the Holders of such specified percentage have joined therein may be evidenced by (a) any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by Holders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record
of the Holders voting in favor thereof at any meeting of Holders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article IX, or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders.
Whenever the Company or the Trustee solicits the taking of any action by the Holders of the Notes, the Company or the Trustee may, but shall not be required to, fix in advance of such solicitation, a date as the record date for determining Holders
entitled to take such action. The record date if one is selected shall be not more than fifteen days prior to the date of commencement of solicitation of such action. 
 Section 8.02 Proof of Execution by Holders. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, Section 7.02 and Section 9.05, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder
or its agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The holding of Notes shall be proved by the
Note Register or by a certificate of the Note Registrar. The record of any Holders’ meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 9.06. 
 Section 8.03 Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. The Company, the Trustee, any authenticating agent, any Paying Agent, any Conversion Agent and any Note Registrar may deem the Person in
whose name a Note shall be registered upon the Note Register to be, and may treat it as, the absolute owner of such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by any
Person other than the Company or any Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of and (subject to Section 2.03) accrued and unpaid interest on such Note, for conversion of such Note and for all other
purposes under this Indenture; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Conversion Agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. The sole registered holder of a Global Note shall be the
Depositary or its nominee. All such payments or deliveries so made to any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sums or shares of Common Stock so paid or delivered, effectual to satisfy and discharge
the liability for monies payable or shares deliverable upon any such Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event of Default, any owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Note may directly
enforce against the Company, without the consent, solicitation, proxy, authorization or any other action of the Depositary or any other Person, such 

  
 44 

 
owner’s right to exchange such beneficial interest for a Note in certificated form in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture. 

Section 8.04 Company-Owned Notes Disregarded. In determining whether the Holders of the requisite aggregate principal
amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent, waiver or other action under this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company, by any Subsidiary thereof or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under
direct or indirect common control with the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such determination; provided that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in conclusively relying on any such direction, consent, waiver or other action only Notes that a Responsible Officer actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be
regarded as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 8.04 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right to so act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company, a Subsidiary
thereof or a Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. In the case of a dispute as to such right, any decision or indecision by the Trustee taken
upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an Officer’s Certificate listing and identifying all Notes, if any, known by the Company to be owned or held by or for the
account of any of the above described Persons; and, subject to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officer’s Certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts therein set forth and of the fact that all Notes not listed
therein are outstanding for the purpose of any such determination. 
 Section 8.05 Revocation of Consents; Future
Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee, as provided in Section 8.01, of the taking of any action by the Holders of the percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in
this Indenture in connection with such action, any Holder of a Note that is shown by the evidence to be included in the Notes the Holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written notice with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust
Office and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 8.02, revoke such action so far as concerns such Note. Except as aforesaid, any such action taken by the Holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders and owners of such Note and of any Notes issued in exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note or any Note issued in
exchange or substitution therefor or upon registration of transfer thereof.

their addresses as they shall appear on the Note Register. Such notice shall also be mailed to the Company. Such notices shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

notice is waived before or after the meeting by the Holders of all Notes then outstanding, and if the Company and the Trustee are either present by duly authorized representatives or have, before or after the meeting, waived notice. 

Section 9.03 Call of Meetings by Company or Holders. In case at any time the Company, pursuant to a Board Resolution,

the meeting, and the Trustee shall not have mailed the notice of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of such request, then the Company or such Holders may determine the time and the place for such meeting and may call such meeting to take any

Any record so signed and verified shall be conclusive evidence of the matters therein stated. 

Section 9.07 No Delay of Rights by Meeting. Nothing contained in this Article IX shall be deemed or construed to authorize or
permit, by reason of any call of a meeting of Holders or any rights expressly or impliedly conferred hereunder to make such call, any hindrance or delay in the exercise of any right or rights conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the
Holders under any of the provisions of this Indenture or of the Notes. Nothing contained in this Article

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES 
 Section 10.01 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Directors and the Trustee, at the Company’s
expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes: 
 (a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; 
 (b) to provide for
the assumption by a Successor Company of the obligations of the Company under this Indenture pursuant to Article XI; 
 (c) to
add guarantees with respect to the Notes; 
 (d) to secure the Notes; 

(e) to add to the covenants for the benefit of the Holders or surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company; 

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

(g) to increase the Conversion Rate as provided in this Indenture; 

(h) to irrevocably elect a Cash Percentage; 
 (i) to conform this Indenture to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect; 
 (j) to provide for the acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee pursuant to Section 7.09 or to facilitate the administration of the trusts by more than one trustee; or 

(k) to conform the provisions of this Indenture or the Notes to the “Description of Notes” in the Offering Memorandum, to the
extent such provision in the “Description of Notes” was intended to be a verbatim recitation of a provision of this Indenture, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate. 

Upon the written request of the Company, the Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Company in the execution of any such
supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any supplemental indenture that affects the
Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise. 

  
 48 

 Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section 10.01 may be
executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the Holders of any of the Notes at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 10.02. 

Section 10.02 Supplemental Indentures with Consent of Holders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Article
VIII) of the Holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding (determined in accordance with Article VIII and including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender or
exchange offer for, Notes), the Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Directors and the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for
the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that,
without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected, no such supplemental indenture shall: 
 (a) reduce the
amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment; 
 (b) reduce the rate of or extend the stated time for payment of
interest (other than Additional Interest) on any Note; 
 (c) reduce the principal of or extend the Maturity Date of any Note;

 (d) make any change that adversely affects the conversion rights of any Notes; 

(e) reduce the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of any Note or amend or modify in any manner adverse to the Holders the Company’s
obligation to make such payments, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise; 
 (f) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Note; 
 (g)
change the ranking of the Notes; 
 (h) impair the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of (including the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Note; or 

(i) make any change in this Article X that requires each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.01 or
Section 6.09. 
 Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent
of Holders as aforesaid and subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under
this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture. 

  
 49 

 Holders do not need, under this Section 10.02, to approve the particular form of any
proposed supplemental indenture. It shall be sufficient if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the Holders a notice briefly describing such supplemental
indenture. However, the failure to give such notice to all the Holders, or any defect in the notice, will not impair or affect the validity of the supplemental indenture. 
 Section 10.03 Effect of Supplemental Indentures. Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article X, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to
be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders shall thereafter be determined, exercised and
enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all
purposes. 
 Section 10.04 Notation on Notes. Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any
supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Article X may, at the Company’s expense, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company or the Trustee shall
so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Board of Directors, to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may, at the Company’s expense, be prepared and
executed by the Company, authenticated by the Trustee (or an authenticating agent duly appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 15.10) and delivered in exchange for the Notes then outstanding, upon surrender of such Notes then outstanding.

 Section 10.05 Evidence of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to Be Furnished Trustee. In addition to the
documents required by Section 15.05, the Trustee shall receive and shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed
pursuant hereto complies with the requirements of this Article X, is permitted or authorized by this Indenture, such Opinion of Counsel to include a customary legal opinion as to the enforceability under New York law of such supplemental indenture,
which opinion may contain customary exceptions and qualifications. 
 ARTICLE XI 

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE AND LEASE

 Section 11.01 Company May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Subject to the provisions of
Section 11.02, the Company shall not consolidate with, merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to another Person, unless: 

(a) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”), if not the Company, shall be a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not the 

  
 50 

 
Company) shall expressly assume all of the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture; and 
 (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture. 

For purposes of this Section 11.01, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries
of the Company substantially as an entirety to another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety on a consolidated
basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to another Person. 
 Section 11.02 Successor Corporation to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Company of
the due and punctual payment of the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on all of the Notes, the due and punctual delivery or payment, as the case may be, of any consideration due upon conversion of the Notes and the due and punctual
performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the Company, such Successor Company (if not the Company) shall succeed to, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, and the
Company will be discharged from the obligations of the Company under the Notes and this Indenture, except in the case of any such lease. Such Successor Company thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of
the Company any or all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee; and, upon the order of such Successor Company instead of the Company and subject to all the terms,
conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver, or cause to be authenticated and delivered, any Notes that previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the Company to
the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor Company thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. In the event of any such consolidation, merger, sale,
conveyance or transfer (but not in the case of a lease), upon compliance with this Article XI the Person named as the “Company” in the first paragraph of this Indenture (or any successor that shall thereafter have become such in the manner
prescribed in this Article XI) may be dissolved, wound up and liquidated at any time thereafter and, except in the case of a lease, such Person shall be released from its liabilities as obligor and maker of the Notes and from its obligations under
this Indenture and the Notes. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in
phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate. 

Section 11.03 Evidence to Be Given to Trustee. No consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease shall be
effective unless the Trustee shall receive an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, 

  
 51 

 
merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and any such assumption and, if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with
the provisions of this Article XI. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR
STOCKHOLDERS 
 Section 12.01 Indenture and Notes Solely Corporate Obligations. None of the
Company’s past, present or future directors, officers, employees or stockholders, as such, will have any liability for any of the obligations under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim based on, or in respect or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. This waiver and release is part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes. 

ARTICLE XIII 

CONVERSION OF NOTES 
 Section 13.01 Conversion Privilege. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article XIII, each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s
option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note (i) subject to satisfaction of the conditions described in Section 13.01(b), at any time prior
to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 13.01(b), and (ii) irrespective of the conditions described in Section 13.01(b),
on or after May 27, 2017 and prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of 31.6832 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 13.04, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to the settlement provisions of Section 13.02, the “Conversion Obligation”). 

(b) (i) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017, the Notes may be surrendered for
conversion during the five Business-Day period immediately after any ten consecutive Trading-Day period (the “Measurement Period”) in which the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, as determined following a request by
a Holder of Notes in accordance with this subsection (b)(i), for each Trading Day of the Measurement Period was less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each such Trading Day. The
Trading Prices shall be determined by the Bid Solicitation Agent pursuant to this subsection (b)(i) and the definition of Trading Price set forth in this Indenture. The Company shall provide written notice to the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other
than the Company) of the three independent nationally recognized securities dealers selected by the Company pursuant to the definition of Trading Price, along with appropriate contact information for each. The Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than
the Company) shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes unless the Company has requested such determination, and the Company shall have no obligation to make such request (or, if the Company is
acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price) unless a Holder of at least $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes provides the Company with reasonable

  
 52 

 
evidence that the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes would be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate, at which
time the Company shall instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Company) to determine, or if the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, the Company shall determine, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes beginning
on the next Trading Day and on each successive Trading Day until the Trading Price per Note is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate. If (x) the Company is not
acting as Bid Solicitation Agent, and the Company does not instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to determine the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes when obligated as provided in the preceding sentence, or if the Company instructs the
Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids and the Bid Solicitation Agent fails to make such determination, or (y) the Company is acting as Bid Solicitation Agent and the Company fails to make such determination when obligated as provided in the
preceding sentence, then, in either case, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the Conversion Rate on each Trading Day of
such failure. If the Trading Price condition set forth above has been met, the Company shall so notify the Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing. If, at any time after the Trading Price condition set
forth above has been met, the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock and the applicable Conversion Rate, the Company shall so notify the
Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing. 
 (ii) If,
prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017, the Company elects to: 
 (A) issue to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 days after the announcement date of such issuance, to
subscribe for or purchase shares of its Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day
immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance; or 
 (B) distribute to all or substantially all
holders of its Common Stock the Company’s assets, debt securities or rights to purchase securities of the Company, which distribution has a per share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of the Last Reported
Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day preceding the date of announcement for such distribution, 
 then, in either case, the Company
shall notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing at least 55 Scheduled Trading Days prior to the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution. Once the Company has given such
notice, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time until the earlier of (1) the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance or distribution and (2) the Company’s
announcement that such issuance or distribution will not 

  
 53 

 
take place, even if the Notes are not otherwise convertible at such time. For purposes of this Section 13.01(b)(ii)(A) and Section 13.04(b), in determining whether any rights, options
or warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading
Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights,
options or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. 

(iii) If a transaction or event that (x) constitutes a Fundamental Change occurs, (y) constitutes a Make-Whole
Fundamental Change occurs or (z) if the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange, or transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, pursuant to which the Common Stock would be converted
into cash, securities or other assets not set forth in (x) and (y) above, in each case prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the
Company to repurchase the Notes pursuant to Section 14.01, then the Notes may be surrendered for conversion at any time from or after the effective date of the transaction or event until the earlier of (A) 35 Trading Days after the actual
effective date of such transaction or event (or, if later, the date on which the Company provides notice of such transaction or event) or, if such transaction or event also constitutes a Fundamental Change, until the related Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date, and (B) the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date. The Company shall notify Holders, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing no later than five Business Days
following the date the Company publicly announces such transaction or event. 
 (iv) Prior to the close of
business on the Business Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on March 31, 2013 (and only during such calendar
quarter), if the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is
greater than 130% of the Conversion Price on each applicable Trading Day. The Conversion Agent, on behalf of the Company, shall determine at the beginning of each calendar quarter commencing after March 31, 2013 whether the Notes may be
surrendered for conversion in accordance with this clause (iv) and shall notify the Company and the Trustee if the Notes become convertible in accordance with this clause. 

Section 13.02 Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion. 

(a) Except as provided in Section 13.03(b) and Section 13.07(a), upon conversion of any Note, on the third Business Day
immediately following the last Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period, the Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, a “Settlement
Amount” equal to the sum of the Daily Settlement Amounts for each of the 50 Trading Days 

  
 54 

 
during the applicable Observation Period for such Note, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection (j) of this
Section 13.02. 
 (i) All conversions occurring on or after May 27, 2017 shall be settled using the
same forms and amounts of consideration. Prior to May 27, 2017, the Company shall use the same forms and amounts of consideration for all conversions occurring on the same Conversion Date, but the Company shall not have any obligation to use
the same forms and amounts with respect to conversions that occur on different Conversion Dates. If the Company elects to settle all or a portion of its Conversion Obligation in excess of the principal portion of the Notes being converted in cash,
the Company shall inform converting Holders through the Trustee of such election (the “Settlement Notice”) no later than the close of business on the Trading Day immediately following the related Conversion Date (or, in the case of
any conversions occurring on or after May 27, 2017, no later than the close of business on the Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding May 27, 2017) and the Company shall indicate in such Settlement Notice the percentage of each share
issuable upon conversion in excess of the principal portion of the Notes being converted that will be paid in cash (the “Cash Percentage”). If the Company does not so deliver a Settlement Notice prior to the deadline set forth in
the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall no longer have the right to elect a Cash Percentage and the Company shall settle its Conversion Obligation by paying cash in respect of the principal portion of the converted Notes and delivering
shares of Common Stock in respect of the remainder, if any, of its Conversion Obligation in excess of the aggregate principal portion of the Notes being converted as set forth herein. 

(ii) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable), the Daily Net Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily
Conversion Values (if applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last day of the applicable Observation Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts, the Daily Net Settlement Amounts or the
Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of any fractional share, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) in writing of the Daily Settlement Amounts, the
Daily Net Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Common Stock. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no
responsibility for any such determination. 
 (b) Subject to Section 13.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be
entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (i) in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and, if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest
Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 13.02(h) and, if required, pay all transfer and similar taxes, if any as provided in Sections 13.02(d) or (e), and (ii) in the case of a Physical Note
(1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent
and state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such Holder wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common

  
 55 

 
Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate
endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents, (4) if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes and (5) if required, pay funds
equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 13.02(h). The Trustee (and, if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this
Article XIII on the Conversion Date for such conversion. No Notice of Conversion with respect to any Notes may be surrendered by a Holder thereof if such Holder has also delivered a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice to the Company in respect of
such Notes and not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 14.02. Nothing herein shall preclude any withholding of tax required by law. 

If more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Obligation with respect to such
Notes shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted thereby) so surrendered. 
 (c) A Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”) that the Holder has complied with the requirements set
forth in subsection (b) above. If any shares of Common Stock are due to converting Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued, and deliver to the Conversion Agent or to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees,
certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary for the full number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Company’s Conversion Obligation. 

(d) In case any Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder of the Note so surrendered a new Note or Notes in authorized denominations in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unconverted portion of the surrendered Note, without payment of any service
charge by the converting Holder but with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge required by law or that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new Notes
issued upon such conversion being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such conversion. 
 (e)
If a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to
be issued in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the
Holder’s name until the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. 
 (f) Except as provided in Section 13.04, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any shares issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 13. 

  
 56 

 (g) Upon the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Custodian at
the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation on such Global Note as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent
other than the Trustee. 
 (h) Upon conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, except as set forth below. The Company’s settlement of the Conversion Obligation shall be deemed to satisfy in full its obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, and
including, the relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, and including, such Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon a conversion of Notes,
accrued and unpaid interest will be deemed to be paid first out of the cash paid upon such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Regular Record Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close
of business on such Regular Record Date will receive the full amount of interest payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of
business on any Regular Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall
be required (1) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date; (2) if the Company has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the
Business Day following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (3) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. 

(i) The Person in whose name the certificate for any shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion is registered shall be treated as a
stockholder of record as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the related Observation Period, subject to Sections 13.04(c) and 13.04(e). Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for
conversion. 
 (j) The Company shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall
instead pay cash in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP on the Last Trading Day of the applicable Observation Period. For each Note surrendered for conversion, the full number of shares that
shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate Daily Settlement Amounts for the applicable Observation Period, and any fractional shares remaining after such computation shall be paid in cash. 

Section 13.03 Increased Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental
Changes. (a) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Company shall, under the circumstances described
below, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”), as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes
to be “in connection with” such Make-

  
 57 

 
Whole Fundamental Change if the applicable Conversion Date occurs during the period from, and including, the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business
Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the Majority Ownership Exception, the 35th Trading Day immediately
following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change). 
 (b) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection
with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 13.01(b)(iii), the Company shall satisfy the related Conversion Obligation in accordance with Section 13.02 based on the Conversion Rate as increased to reflect the Additional Shares
pursuant to the table below; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property following such Make-Whole
Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the transaction and
shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Stock Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation
will be determined and shall be paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify the Holders of Notes of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change no later than five Business
Days after such Effective Date. 
 (c) The number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased
shall be determined by reference to the table below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”) and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed
to be paid) per share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If the holders of the Common Stock receive in exchange for their Common Stock only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition
of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share. Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the
Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any adjustment to the Conversion
Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, during such five consecutive Trading-Day period. 

(d) The Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate of
the Notes is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such
adjustment giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the
Conversion Rate as set forth in Section 13.04. 

  
 58 

 (e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares to be received per $1,000
principal amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 13.03 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 Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the Effective Date is between two
Effective Dates in the table above, the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective
Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year; 
 (ii) if the Stock Price is greater than $150.00 per share
(subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate; and 

(iii) if the Stock Price is less than $25.25 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set
forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion exceed 39.6039 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the
same manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 13.04. 
 (f) Nothing in this Section 13.03 shall prevent an
adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 13.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change. 

Section 13.04 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company if
any of the following events occurs, except that the Company shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in the case of a share split or share combination), at the same time and upon the same
terms as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section 13.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder. 

  
 59 

 (a) If the Company exclusively issues shares of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution
on shares of its Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 OS’
	 	
	 	 	OS0	 	

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date of such dividend or distribution, or immediately prior to the open of business on
the Effective Date of such share split or share combination, as applicable;
			
	CR’	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date;
			
	OS0	  	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or Effective Date; and
			
	OS’	  	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such dividend, distribution, share split or share combination.

 Any adjustment made under this Section 13.04(a) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the
Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution, or immediately after the open of business on the Effective Date for such share split or share combination, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution of the type described in this
Section 13.04(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 
 (b) If the Company issues to all or substantially
all holders of its Common Stock any rights, options or warrants entitling them, for a period of not more than 45 days after the announcement date of such issuance, to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at a price per share that is
less than the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall
be increased based on the following formula: 
  

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 OS0 + X
	 	
	 	 	OS0 + Y	 	

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such
issuance;

  
 60 

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

 Any increase made under this Section 13.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights, options or
warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance. To the extent that shares of the Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options or
warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase with respect to the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of
Common Stock actually delivered. If such rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such Ex-Dividend Date for such issuance had not occurred.

 For purposes of this Section 13.04(b) and Section 13.01(b)(ii)(A), in determining whether any rights, options or
warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Common Stock at less than such average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day
immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the aggregate offering price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, options or
warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors. 
 (c) If the Company distributes shares of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire its Capital Stock or other securities, to all
or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, excluding (i) dividends, distributions or issuances as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 13.04(a) or Section 13.04(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid
exclusively in cash as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Section 13.04(d), (iii) distributions of Reference Property in a transaction described in Section 13.07; and (iv) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set
forth below in this Section 13.04(c) shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness, other assets or property or rights, options or warrants to acquire Capital Stock or other securities of the Company, the
“Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 

  
 61 

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 SP0
	  	
	 	 	SP0 – FMV	  	

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
			
	CR’	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date;
			
	SP0	  	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the
Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution; and
			
	FMV	  	=	 	the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors) of the Distributed Property with respect to each outstanding share of the Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for
such distribution.

 Any increase made under the portion of this Section 13.04(c) above shall become effective immediately after the open
of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined
above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as
defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount thereof, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of the Common Stock receive the Distributed Property, the
amount and kind of Distributed Property such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution. If the Board of Directors determines
the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes of this Section 13.04(c) by reference to the actual or when-issued trading market for any securities, it shall in doing so consider the prices in such market over the same
period used in computing the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. 

With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 13.04(c) where there has been a payment of a dividend or other distribution
on the Common Stock of shares of Capital Stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a Subsidiary or other business unit of the Company, that are, or, when issued, will be, listed or admitted for trading on a U.S.
national securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula: 
  

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 FMV0 + MP0
	  	
	 	 	MP0	  	

 where, 

  
 62 

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Effective Date of the Spin-Off;
			
	CR’	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Effective Date of the Spin-Off;
			
	FMV0	  	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Capital Stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of the Common Stock applicable to one share of the Common
Stock (determined by reference to the definition of Last Reported Sale Price as set forth in Section 1.01 as if references therein to Common Stock were to such Capital Stock or similar equity interest) over the first 10 consecutive Trading-Day
period after, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Spin-Off (the “Valuation Period”); and
			
	MP0	  	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the Valuation Period.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph will be calculated as of the open of
business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period, but shall be given effect as of the close of business on the Effective Date of the Spin-Off. If the last Trading Day of an Observation Period occurs during the related Valuation Period, the
Company will pay cash and deliver shares of its Common Stock, if any, on the third Business Day immediately following the last day of the Valuation Period, and the Person in whose name the certificate for any shares of Common Stock delivered upon
conversion is registered shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period. If any distribution of the type described in this Section 13.04(c) is declared but not so made,
the conversion rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors or a committee thereof determines not to make such distribution, to the conversion rate that would then be in effect if such distribution had not
been declared. 
 (d) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock, the
Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula: 
  

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 SP0
	 	
	 	 	SP0 – C	 	

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	CR’	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
			
	SP0	  	=	 	the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;
and

  
 63 

					
	C	  	=	  	the amount in cash per share the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock.

 Any increase pursuant to this Section 13.04(d) shall become effective immediately after the open of business on the
Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If such dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make or pay such dividend or distribution,
to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined above), in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder
of a Note shall receive, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of shares of the Common Stock, the amount of cash that such Holder would have received if such Holder owned a number of
shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution. 
 (e) If
the Company makes or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock, to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of the Common Stock
exceeds the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the
following formula: 
  

							
	CR’ = CR0	 	×	 	 AC + (SP’×OS’)
	 	
	 	 	OS0 × SP’	 	

 where, 
  

					
	CR0	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
			
	CR’	  	=	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires;
			
	AC	  	=	 	the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors) paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or
exchange offer;
			
	OS0	  	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of
Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);
			
	OS’	  	=	 	the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of
all

  
 64 

					
		  		 	shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer); and
			
	SP’	  	=	 	the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading-Day period (the “Averaging Period”) commencing on, and
including, the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

 The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 13.04(e) shall be calculated as of the open of business on
the Trading Day immediately following the last day of the Averaging Period but will be given effect immediately after the open of business on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such
tender or exchange offer. If the last Trading Day of an Observation Period occurs during the related Averaging Period, the Company will pay cash and deliver shares of its Common Stock, if any, on the third Business Day immediately following the last
day of the Averaging Period, and the Person in whose name the certificate for any shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion is registered shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the last Trading Day of the
Averaging Period. 
 (f) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of
its Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of its Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of its Common Stock or such convertible or exchangeable securities (including as consideration for a merger, purchase
or similar transaction). 
 (g) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of
this Section 13.04, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of The NASDAQ Global Select Market, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for a period of at least 20
Business Days if the Board of Directors determines that such increase would be in the Company’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of The NASDAQ Global Select Market, the
Company may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares (or rights to acquire shares)
or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences, the Company shall mail to the Holder of each Note at its last address appearing on the Note Register a notice of the increase at least 15
days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion Rate and the period during which it will be in effect. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article XIII, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted: 
 (i) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on the Company’s securities and the
investment of additional optional amounts in shares of Common Stock under any plan; 

  
 65 

 (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock or options or rights to
purchase those shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries; 

(iii) upon the repurchase of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an open-market share repurchase program or other
buy-back transaction that is not a tender offer or exchange offer of the nature described under Section 13.04(e); 
 (iv) for a third-party tender offer (other than a tender offer by any Subsidiary of the Company as described under Section 13.04(e)); 

(v) upon the issuance of any shares of the Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right or exercisable,
exchangeable or convertible security not described in clause (ii) of this subsection and outstanding as of the date the Notes were first issued; 
 (vi) solely for a change in the par value of the Common Stock; or 

(vii) for accrued and unpaid interest, if any. 
 The Company shall not be required to make an adjustment pursuant to clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 13.04 unless such adjustment would result in a change of at least 1% of
the then effective Conversion Rate. However, the Company shall carry forward any adjustment that the Company would otherwise have to make and take that adjustment into account in any subsequent adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all such
carried-forward adjustments shall be made with respect to the Notes (i) in connection with any subsequent adjustment to the Conversion Rate of at least 1% of the Conversion Rate (when such carried-forward adjustments are taken into account),
(ii) on the occurrence of any Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change and (iii) on each Trading Day of any Observation Period. All calculations and other determinations under this Article XIII shall be made by the Company and
shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of a share. 
 (i) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as
herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officer’s Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief statement of the facts
requiring such adjustment. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume without
inquiry that the last Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such certificate, the Company shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate
and the date on which each adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to each Holder at its last address appearing on the Note Register of this Indenture. Failure to deliver such notice shall
not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment. 
 (j) For purposes of this Section 13.04, the number of shares
of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the 

  
 66 

 
Company does not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company, but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued
in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. 
 (k) For purposes of this Section 13.04, “Effective
Date” means the first date on which the shares of the Common Stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, reflecting the relevant share split or share combination, as applicable. 

Section 13.05 Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Company to calculate the
Last Reported Sale Prices, the Daily VWAPs, the Daily Conversion Values, the Daily Net Settlement Amounts or the Daily Settlement Amounts over a span of multiple days (including an Observation Period and the period for determining the Stock Price
for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change), the Company shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where
the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, at any time during the period when such Last Reported Sale Prices, Daily VWAPs, Daily Conversion Values or Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated. 

Section 13.06 Shares to Be Fully Paid. The Company shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized
but unissued shares or shares held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are presented for conversion (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of shares,
all such Notes would be converted by a single Holder). 
 Section 13.07 Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications
and Changes of the Common Stock. 
 (a) In the case of: 

(i) any recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes in par value or from no par
value or resulting from a subdivision or combination), 
 (ii) any consolidation, merger or combination involving
the Company, 
 (iii) any sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the
Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries substantially as an entirety or 
 (iv) any statutory share exchange,

 in each case, as a result of which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or
assets (including cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of such Merger Event, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a
right to convert such principal amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the
Conversion Rate immediately prior to such Merger Event 

  
 67 

 
would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property
that a holder of one share of Common Stock is entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Company or the successor or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the
Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(f) providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided, however, that at and after the effective time of the Merger Event
the Conversion Obligation shall be calculated and settled in accordance with Section 13.02 such that (A) the amount otherwise payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes as set forth under Section 13.02 shall continue to be payable
in cash, (B) the Company shall continue to have the right to elect to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Conversion Obligation in excess of the principal
amount of the Notes being converted as set forth under Section 13.02, (C) the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, otherwise deliverable upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 13.02 shall instead be deliverable
in the amount and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of shares of Common Stock would have received in such Merger Event and (D) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of a unit of Reference Property.

 If the Merger Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single
type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of
consideration received by the holders of Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause
(i) attributable to one share of Common Stock. If the holders receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions that occur after the effective date of such Merger Event (x) the consideration due upon conversion of each
$1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 13.03), multiplied by the price paid per
share of Common Stock in such Merger Event and (y) the Company shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders on the third Business Day immediately following the Conversion Date. The Company shall notify Holders,
the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made. 
 Such supplemental indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the
adjustments provided for in this Article XIII. If, in the case of any Merger Event, the Reference Property includes shares of stock, securities or other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) of a Person other than the
successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, in such Merger Event, then such supplemental indenture shall also be executed by such other Person and shall contain such additional provisions to protect the interests of the Holders of the
Notes as the Board of Directors shall reasonably consider necessary by reason of the foregoing, including the provisions providing for the purchase rights set forth in Article XIV. 

  
 68 

 (b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection
(a) of this Section 13.07, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities or property or asset that will comprise a unit of
Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders. The Company shall cause notice of the
execution of such supplemental indenture to be mailed to each Holder, at its address appearing on the Note Register provided for in this Indenture, within 20 days after execution thereof. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality
or validity of such supplemental indenture. 
 (c) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive
Merger Events. 
 Section 13.08 Certain Covenants. (a) The Company covenants that any shares of Common
Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Company and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. 

(b) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated
quotation system, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

 Section 13.09 Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be
under any duty or responsibility to any Holder to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or
extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be
accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and the Trustee and any
other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock certificates or
other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Company contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 13.07 relating either to the kind
or amount of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any event referred to in such Section 13.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but,
subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in conclusively relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate

  
 69 

 
(which the Company shall be obligated to file with the Trustee prior to the execution of any such supplemental indenture) with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall
be responsible for determining whether any event contemplated by Section 13.01(b) has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for conversion or no longer eligible therefor until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent
the notices referred to in Section 13.01(b) with respect to the commencement or termination of such conversion rights, on which notices the Trustee and the Conversion Agent may conclusively rely, and the Company agrees to deliver such notices
to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent immediately after the occurrence of any such event or at such other times as shall be provided for in Section 13.01(b). The Conversion Agent (if other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company)
shall have the same protection under this Section 13.09 as the Trustee. 
 Section 13.10 Stockholder Rights
Plans. To the extent that the Company has a rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each share of Common Stock, if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the
certificates representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such stockholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. If at the time of
conversion, however, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable stockholder rights plan so that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of Common Stock, if
any, issuable upon conversion of the Notes, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Company distributed to all or substantially all holders of the Common Stock Distributed Property as provided in
Section 13.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights. 

Section 13.11 Limit of Issuance of Common Stock Upon Conversion. The Company will not take any voluntary action that would
result in an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to Sections 13.04(b), 13.04(c) 13.04(d) or 13.04(e) without complying, if applicable, with the stockholder approval rules of The NASDAQ Global Select Market, or any similar rule of any stock
exchange on which the Common Stock is listed at the relevant time. In accordance with such listing standards, this restriction will apply at any time when the Notes are outstanding, regardless of whether the Company then has a class of securities
listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market. 
 Section 13.12 Withholding Taxes for Adjustments in Conversation Rate.
If the Company pays withholding taxes on behalf of a Holder or beneficial owner as a result of an adjustment to the Conversion Rate, the Company may, at its option, set off such payments against payments of cash and shares of Common Stock on the
Notes. 
 ARTICLE XIV 
 REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT OPTION OF HOLDERS 

Section 14.01 Repurchase at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change. (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at
any time, each Holder shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, on the date
(the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days or 

  
 70 

 
more than 30 Business Days following the date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon to, and including, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment
Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be
equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article XIV. 
 (b) Repurchases of Notes under
this Section 14.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon: 
 (i) delivery to the Paying
Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice”) substantially in the form set forth in Attachment 2 to the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A, if the Notes are Physical Notes, or in
compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Date; and 
 (ii) delivery of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after
delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with
the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor. 
 The Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state: 
 (i) in the case of Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase; 
 (ii) the portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and 

(iii) that the Notes are to be repurchased by the Company pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and this
Indenture; 
 provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice must comply with
appropriate Depositary procedures. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Holder delivering to the Paying Agent
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice contemplated by this Section 14.01 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day
immediately preceding the 

  
 71 

 
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 14.02. 

The Paying Agent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of
withdrawal thereof. 
 (c) On or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Company shall
provide to all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Fundamental Change and of the
repurchase right at the option of the Holders arising as a result thereof. In the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable
procedures of the Depositary. Each Fundamental Change Company Notice shall specify: 
 (i) the events causing the
Fundamental Change; 
 (ii) the date of the Fundamental Change; 

(iii) the last date on which a Holder may exercise the repurchase right pursuant to this Article XIV; 

(iv) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price; 

(v) the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; 

(vi) the name and address of the Paying Agent and the Conversion Agent, if applicable; 

(vii) if applicable, the Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate; 

(viii) if applicable, that the Notes with respect to which a Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice has been delivered by a
Holder may be converted only if the Holder withdraws the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
 (ix) the procedures that Holders must follow to require the Company to repurchase their Notes. 
 No failure of the Company to give the foregoing notices and no defect therein shall limit the Holders’ repurchase rights or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of the Notes
pursuant to this Section 14.01. 
 At the Company’s written request and upon 15 days prior notice, the Trustee shall
give such notice in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense; provided, however, that, in all cases, the text of such Fundamental Change Company Notice shall be prepared by the Company. 

  
 72 

 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company on any date at
the option of the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to such date (except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by
the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes). The Paying Agent will promptly return to the respective Holders thereof any Physical Notes held by it during the acceleration of the Notes (except in
the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the Company in the payment of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price with respect to such Notes), or any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures of
the Depositary shall be deemed to have been cancelled, and, upon such return or cancellation, as the case may be, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice with respect thereto shall be deemed to have been withdrawn. 

Section 14.02 Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. (a) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may
be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 14.02 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, specifying: 
 (i) the principal amount of the Notes with respect to which
such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, 
 (ii) if Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number
of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted, and 
 (iii) the principal amount,
if any, of such Note that remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000; 
 provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate procedures of the Depositary. 

Section 14.03 Deposit of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. (a) The Company will deposit with the Trustee (or
other Paying Agent appointed by the Company, or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.04) on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds and/or Notes by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the
Company), payment for Notes surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date) will be made on the later of (i) the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date with respect to such Note (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 14.01) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by
the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 14.01 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided, however, that
payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately 

  
 73 

 
available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess
of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Nothing herein shall preclude any withholding tax required by law. 
 (b) If by
11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased on such
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, then (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the
Trustee or Paying Agent) and (iii) all other rights of the Holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price). 
 (c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 14.01, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder a new Note in an
authorized denomination equal in principal amount to the unrepurchased portion of the Note surrendered. 
 Section 14.04
Covenant to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes. In connection with any repurchase offer, the Company will, if required: 
 (a) comply with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act; 
 (b) file a Schedule TO or any successor or similar schedule required under the Exchange Act; and 
 (c) otherwise comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Company to repurchase the Notes; 
 in each case, so as to permit the rights and obligations under this Article XIV to be exercised in the time and in the manner specified in this Article XIV.

 Section 15.10 Authenticating Agent. The Trustee may appoint an
authenticating agent that shall be authorized to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Notes in connection with the original issuance thereof and transfers and exchanges of Notes hereunder, including
under Section 2.04, Section 2.05, Section 2.06, Section 2.07, Section 10.04 and Section 14.03 as fully to all intents and purposes as though the authenticating agent had been expressly authorized by this Indenture and
those Sections to authenticate and deliver Notes. For all purposes of this Indenture, the authentication and delivery of Notes by the authenticating agent shall be deemed to be authentication and delivery of such Notes “by the Trustee” and
a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an authenticating agent shall be deemed to satisfy any requirement hereunder or in the Notes for the Trustee’s certificate of authentication. Such authenticating agent shall
at all times be a Person eligible to serve as trustee hereunder pursuant to Section 7.07. 
 Any corporation or other
entity into which any authenticating agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any authenticating agent shall be a party,
or any corporation or other entity succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of any authenticating agent, shall be the successor of the authenticating agent hereunder, if such successor corporation or other entity is
otherwise eligible under this Section, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or the authenticating agent or such successor corporation or other entity. 

Any authenticating agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee
may at any time terminate the agency of any authenticating agent by giving written notice of termination to such authenticating agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time
any authenticating agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section, the Trustee may appoint a successor authenticating agent (which may be the Trustee), shall give written notice of such appointment to the Company and shall mail notice of such
appointment to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear on the Note Register. 
 The Company agrees to pay
to the authenticating agent from time to time such compensation for its services as agreed in writing although the Company may terminate the authenticating agent (if other than the Trustee), if it determines such authenticating agent’s fees to
be unreasonable. 
 The provisions of Section 7.02, Section 7.03, Section 7.04, Section 8.03 and this
Section 15.10 shall be applicable to any authenticating agent. 
 If an authenticating agent is appointed pursuant to this
Section, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 

 

	
	                             
                                         
                          ,
	as Authenticating Agent, certifies that this is one of the Notes described in the within-named Indenture.

 Section 15.11 Execution in Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number
of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The exchange of copies of this Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute
effective execution and delivery of this Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Indenture for all purposes. Signatures of the parties hereto transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their original
signatures for all purposes. 
 Section 15.12 Severability. In the event any provision of this Indenture or
in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then (to the extent permitted by law) the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired. 

Section 15.13 Force Majeure. In no event shall 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 the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent
with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances. 

Section 15.14 Calculations. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall be responsible for making all calculations
called for under the Notes. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock, the Daily Settlement Amount, the Daily Net Settlement Amount, the Daily Conversion Value, accrued
interest payable on the Notes and the Conversion Rate of the Notes. The Company shall make all these calculations in good faith and, absent manifest error, the Company’s calculations shall be final and binding on Holders. The Company shall
provide a schedule of its calculations to each of the Trustee and the Conversion Agent, and each of the Trustee and Conversion Agent is entitled to rely conclusively upon the accuracy of the Company’s calculations without independent
verification. The Trustee will forward the Company’s calculations to any Holder upon the written request of that Holder at the sole cost and expense of the Company. 
 Section 15.15 USA PATRIOT Act. The parties hereto acknowledge that in accordance with Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, the Trustee, like all financial institutions and in order
to help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering, is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person or legal entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The parties to this
Indenture agree that they will provide the Trustee with such information as it may request in order for the Trustee to satisfy the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act.

 3.00% Convertible Senior Note due 2017 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 3.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 (the
“Notes”), initially limited to the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 (as increased by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of any additional Notes purchased by the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the exercise of
their option to purchase additional Notes as set forth in the Purchase Agreement), all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of November 27, 2012 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and Union
Bank, N.A. (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee,
the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate

principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth in the
Indenture. 
 In the event of certain Events of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(i) or
Section 6.01(j) of the Indenture with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries) shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of, and interest on, all Notes may be declared, by either the Trustee or Holders of at
least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and upon said declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions and certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture.

 Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments and deliveries in respect of the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 
 The Indenture
contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that,
subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its
consequences. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and 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 or deliver, as the case may be, the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and the consideration due
upon conversion of, this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money herein prescribed. 

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. At
the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations,
without payment of any service charge but, if required by the Company or Trustee, with payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer or similar tax that may be imposed in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new
Notes issued upon such exchange of Notes being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for such exchange. 

  
 A-5

 The Notes are not subject to redemption through the operation of any sinking fund or
otherwise. 
 Upon the occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require
the Company to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof) on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price. 
 Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and
upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the close of business on the second Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral
multiple thereof, into cash and shares of Common Stock, if any, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture. 
 Terms used in this Note and defined in the Indenture are used herein as therein defined.
