may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after notice given by
the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of
payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

     Section 2.04. Execution, Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be signed in
the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual or facsimile signature of any member of the
Company’s Board of Directors, the Chief Financial Officer or the Secretary.

     At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with
a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee in

15

 

accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes in New York City,
without any further action by the Company hereunder.

     Only such Notes as shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the
form set forth on the form of Note attached as Exhibit A hereto, executed manually or by facsimile
by an authorized officer of the Trustee (or the authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee as
provided by Section 17.11), shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee (or such authenticating agent) upon
any Note executed by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Note so authenticated has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and that the Holder is entitled to the benefits of
this Indenture.

     In case any Officer of the Company who shall have signed any of the Notes shall cease to be
such Officer before the Notes so signed shall have been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee,
or disposed of by the Company, such Notes nevertheless may be authenticated and delivered or
disposed of as though the Person who signed such Notes had not ceased to be such Officer of the
Company; and any Note may be signed on behalf of the Company by such persons as, at the actual date
of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers of the Company, although at the date of the
execution of this Indenture any such Person was not such an Officer.

     Section 2.05. Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Notes; Restrictions on Transfer;
Depositary. (a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the office of the Note Registrar a register
(the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Company designated
pursuant to Section 4.02, the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as
it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of
Notes. Such register shall be in written form or in any form capable of being converted into
written form within a reasonable period of time. The Bank of New York Mellon is hereby appointed
the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein
provided. The Company may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.02.

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

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

     All Notes presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange, repurchase,
redemption or conversion shall (if so required by the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar

16

 

or any co-Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument or
instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and duly executed, by the Holder
thereof or its attorney-in-fact duly authorized in writing.

     No service charge shall be charged to the Holder for any exchange or registration of transfer
of Notes, but the Company or the Trustee may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other similar governmental charge required by law or permitted pursuant to Section 14.02(e).

     None of the Company, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-registrar shall be required to
exchange or register a transfer of (i) any Notes surrendered for conversion or, if a portion of any
Note is surrendered for conversion, such portion thereof surrendered for conversion, (ii) any
Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with
Article 15 or (iii) any Notes selected for redemption in accordance with Article 16.

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

     (b) So long as the Notes are eligible for book-entry settlement with the Depositary, unless
otherwise required by law, all Notes shall be represented by one or more Notes in global form
(each, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary.
The transfer and exchange of beneficial interests in a Global Note that does not 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 Ordinary Shares 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 the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or
otherwise waived by written consent of the Company, and the Holder of each such Restricted
Security, by such Holder’s acceptance thereof, agrees to be bound by all such restrictions on
transfer. As used in this Section 2.05(c) and Section 2.05(d), the term “transfer” encompasses any
sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition whatsoever of any Restricted Security.

     Until the date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is the later of (1) the date
that is one year after the date of original issuance of the Notes, or such shorter period of time
as permitted by Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any successor provision thereto, and (2) such
later date, if any, as may be required by applicable laws, any certificate evidencing such Note
(and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Ordinary
Shares, 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 been declared effective under

17

 

the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or sold to
a “qualified institutional buyer” (within the meaning of Rule 144A) in compliance with Rule 144A or
pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144, if available, or any similar
provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Company and the
Holder thereof in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee):

     THE SECURITY EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE ORDINARY SHARES, IF ANY, ISSUABLE UPON
CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY
ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE HOLDER:

     (1) REPRESENTS THAT IT AND ANY ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT IS ACTING IS A “QUALIFIED
INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THAT IT
EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH SUCH ACCOUNT:

     (2) AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF TELVENT GIT, S.A. (THE “COMPANY”) THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER,
SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO
THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH
SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR
PROVISION THERETO, AND (Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
EXCEPT:

     (A) TO THE COMPANY OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR

     (B) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT, OR

     (C) PURSUANT TO (1) THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT, IF AVAILABLE, OR (2) ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, OR

     (D) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND WHICH CONTINUES TO BE EFFECTIVE AT THE TIME OF SUCH
TRANSFER;

     (3) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS
TRANSFERRED (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE 2(C)(1) OR 2(D) ABOVE) A NOTICE
SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND; AND

18

 

     (4) REPRESENTS THAT ITS PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THE SECURITY AND THE ORDINARY SHARES
THAT MAY BE ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THE SECURITY IS EITHER (A) NOT MADE ON BEHALF OF OR
WITH “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY PLAN SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF ERISA, SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR ANY
SIMILAR LAW OR (B) WILL NOT RESULT IN A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406
OF ERISA, SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR ANY SIMILAR LAW.

     PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(C) ABOVE, THE COMPANY AND THE
TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER
EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING
MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION
IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
SECURITIES ACT.

     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). The Company shall promptly
notify the Trustee and the Note Registrar upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination
Date and promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Ordinary
Shares 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 The Depository Trust Company 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.

19

 

     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
by the Company within 60 days, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency
under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 60 days or (iii) an Event
of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of the
Notes requests that its Notes be issued as Physical Notes, the Company will execute, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and a Company Order for the authentication and
delivery of Notes, will authenticate and deliver Physical Notes to each such beneficial owner of
the related Notes (or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal
amount of such Global Note, in exchange for such Global Note, and upon delivery of the Global Note
to the Trustee such Global Note 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.

     At such time as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, repurchased,
redeemed or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt thereof, canceled by the Trustee
in accordance with standing procedures and existing instructions between the Depositary and the
Custodian. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any interest in a Global Note is exchanged
for Physical Notes, converted, canceled, repurchased, redeemed 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 standing
procedures and instructions existing between the Depositary and the Custodian, be appropriately
reduced or increased, as the case may be, and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Note, by
the Trustee or the Custodian, at the direction of the Trustee, to reflect such reduction or
increase.

     None of the Company, the Trustee, Note Registrar, Paying Agent and Conversion Agent 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.

     (d) Until the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any stock certificate representing Ordinary
Shares issued upon conversion of such Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form
(unless the Note or such Ordinary Shares have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement
that has been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the
time of such transfer, or to a qualified institutional buyer in compliance with Rule 144A or
pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in
force under the Securities Act, or such Ordinary Shares have 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 to a qualified institutional buyer in compliance with Rule 144A 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 and the Holder of

20

 

such Notes with written notice
thereof to the Trustee and any transfer agent for the Ordinary Shares):

     THIS SECURITY HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED
OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ACQUISITION HEREOF, THE
HOLDER:

     (1) REPRESENTS THAT IT AND ANY ACCOUNT FOR WHICH IT IS ACTING IS A “QUALIFIED
INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) AND THAT IT
EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH SUCH ACCOUNT;

     (2) AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF TELVENT GIT, S.A. (THE “COMPANY”) THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER,
SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN PRIOR TO
THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE ORIGINAL ISSUE DATE HEREOF OR SUCH
SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME AS PERMITTED BY RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY SUCCESSOR
PROVISION THERETO, AND (Y) SUCH LATER DATE, IF ANY, AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
EXCEPT:

     (A) TO THE COMPANY OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR

     (B) TO A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER IN COMPLIANCE WITH RULE 144A UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT, OR

     (C) PURSUANT TO (1) THE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION PROVIDED BY RULE 144 UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT, IF AVAILABLE, OR (2) ANY OTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT, OR

     (D) PURSUANT TO A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN DECLARED EFFECTIVE
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND WHICH CONTINUES TO BE EFFECTIVE AT THE TIME OF SUCH
TRANSFER;

     (3) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THE SECURITY EVIDENCED HEREBY IS
TRANSFERRED (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER PURSUANT TO CLAUSE 2(C)(1) OR 2(D) ABOVE) A NOTICE
SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND; AND

     (4) REPRESENTS THAT ITS PURCHASE AND HOLDING OF THE SECURITY AND THE ORDINARY SHARES
THAT MAY BE ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THE SECURITY IS EITHER (A) NOT MADE ON BEHALF OF OR
WITH “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY PLAN SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF ERISA,

21

 

SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR ANY
SIMILAR LAW OR (B) WILL NOT RESULT IN A NON-EXEMPT PROHIBITED TRANSACTION UNDER SECTION 406
OF ERISA, SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE OR ANY SIMILAR LAW.

     PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(C) ABOVE, THE COMPANY AND THE
TRUSTEE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER
EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING
MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO REPRESENTATION
IS MADE AS TO THE AVAILABILITY OF ANY EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE
SECURITIES ACT.

     Any such Ordinary Shares as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in
accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of the certificates representing such Ordinary
Shares for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent for the Ordinary
Shares, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of Ordinary
Shares, which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d).

     (e) If any proposed transfer of the Notes or Ordinary Shares, if any, issuable upon conversion
of the Notes is pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, or any other available exemption from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, the Holder must, prior to such transfer, furnish to the Trustee, such
certifications, legal opinions or other information as the Company may reasonably require 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. Unless otherwise agreed by the
Company and the Holder thereof, the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d) or Section 2.05(c), as
applicable, will be removed upon the earlier of (i) the transfer of the Notes or Ordinary Shares,
as the case may be, pursuant to (A) the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the
Securities Act, if available, or (B) a registration statement which has been declared effective
under the Securities Act and which continues to be effective at the time of such transfer or (ii)
the expiration of the one-year period after the date on which the Notes or Ordinary Shares, as the
case may be, were originally issued.

     (f) Any Note or Ordinary Shares issued upon the conversion of a Note that is purchased or
owned by the Company or any Affiliate thereof may not be resold by the Company or such Affiliate
unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Notes or Ordinary Shares,
as the case may be, no longer being “restricted securities” (as defined under Rule 144 under the
Securities Act).

     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 the Trustee or the authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, a new Note, bearing a 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

22

 

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. 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 14 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, the 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 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 the authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee shall, upon written
request of the Company, 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 will 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

23

 

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. All Notes surrendered for the
purpose of payment, repurchase, conversion, exchange or registration of transfer, shall, if
surrendered to the Company or the Paying Agent or any Note Registrar or the Conversion Agent, be
surrendered to the Trustee and promptly canceled by it, or, if surrendered to the Trustee, shall be
promptly canceled by it, and no Notes shall be issued in lieu 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, at the Company’s written request. If the Company shall acquire
any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as 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. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP”
numbers.

     Any Notes that are, when issued, Restricted Securities shall be issued with a restricted CUSIP
number. Until such time as the Company notifies the Trustee to remove the restrictive legend
specified in Section 2.05(c) from the Notes, the restricted CUSIP shall be the CUSIP number for the
Notes.

     Section 2.10. Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, without notice to or the
consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen this Indenture and increase the
principal amount of the Notes outstanding by issuing additional Notes hereunder with the same terms
and conditions, except for any differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to the
issue date of the additional Notes; provided that such differences do not cause the additional
Notes to constitute a different class of securities than the Notes for U.S. federal income tax
purposes; and provided further, that the additional Notes have the same CUSIP number as the Notes
initially issued hereunder. The Notes initially issued hereunder and any additional Notes would
rank equally and ratably and would be treated as a single class for all purposes under this
Indenture. No additional Notes may be issued if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
with respect to the Notes. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the Company shall
deliver to the Trustee a Company Order, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, such
Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel to cover such matters, in addition to those required
by Section 17.06, as the Trustee shall reasonably request. The Company may, to the extent
permitted by law, repurchase any Notes in the open market or by

24

 

tender offer at any price or by
private agreement without prior notice to Holders. Any Notes repurchased by the Company may, at its
option, be surrendered to the Payment Agent for cancellation pursuant to Section 2.08, but may not
be reissued or resold by the Company. Any Notes surrendered for cancellation may not be reissued
or resold and shall be promptly cancelled and be deemed to be no longer outstanding under this
Indenture.

ARTICLE 3

Satisfaction and Discharge

     Section 3.01. Satisfaction and Discharge. This Indenture shall upon request of the Company
contained in an Officers’ Certificate cease to be of further effect, and the Trustee, at the
request and expense 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, any Redemption Date, upon conversion or otherwise, cash or
cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination thereof, as applicable, solely to satisfy the Company’s
Conversion Obligation, 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
Officers’ 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 4

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 and
Redemption 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.

     Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Company will maintain in New York City,
an office or agency where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange or
for presentation for payment, repurchase or redemption (“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

25

 

may be made or served at
the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency of the Trustee without any prejudice to any
remedies that Holders may have against the Company hereunder.

     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 or
agency in New York City, 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 Bank of New York Mellon as the Note Registrar,
Paying Agent, Conversion Agent and Custodian.

     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 7.09, 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 Bank of New York Mellon, 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 and Redemption Price, if
applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of
the Holders of the Notes;

     (ii) that it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Company to make
any payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and
Redemption 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, at least one Business Day prior to each due date of the principal
(including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and Redemption 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 and Redemption Price, if
applicable) or accrued and unpaid interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the
Company will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action; provided that if such
deposit is made on the Business Day prior to the due date, such deposit must be received by the
Paying Agent by 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date. The Paying Agent shall have no
obligation to make any payment unless and until the Company has deposited such sums with the Paying
Agent.

26

 

     (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 and the Redemption 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 and the Redemption 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 and the Redemption 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 the 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 the 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 Ordinary Shares deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent, or then held
by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Price and the Redemption 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 and the Redemption Price, if applicable) or interest has become due and
payable shall be paid to the Company on request of the Company contained in an Officers’
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 Ordinary Shares, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon
cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any
such repayment, may at the expense of the Company cause to be published once, in a newspaper
published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general
circulation in New York City, notice that such money and Ordinary Shares remains unclaimed and
that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such
publication, any unclaimed balance of such money and Ordinary Shares then remaining will be repaid
or delivered to the Company; provided, further, that if the Notes are registered solely in the name
of the Depositary, notice to the Depositary shall be sufficient.

     Section 4.05. Existence. Subject to Article 11, the Company will do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.

     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 Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof shall, at such time,
constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act
(assuming these securities are not owned by an Affiliate of the Company), furnish to the

27

 

Holders,
beneficial owners or prospective purchaser of such Notes or any Ordinary Shares issued upon
conversion of such Notes, upon their request, the information, if any, required to be delivered
pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act to facilitate the resale of such Notes or
Ordinary Shares pursuant to Rule 144A. The Company shall take such further action as any Holder or
beneficial owner of such Notes or such Ordinary Shares may reasonably request to the extent
required from time to time to enable such Holder or beneficial owner to sell such Notes or Ordinary
Shares in accordance with Rule 144A, as such rule may be amended from time to time.

     (b) The Company shall deliver to the Trustee and Paying Agent copies of any annual reports and
the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as
the Commission may by rules and regulations prescribe) that the Company is required to file with
the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (giving effect to any grace
period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) within 15 days after the same are required
to be filed 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 and
Paying Agent for purposes of this Section 4.06(b) at the time such documents are filed via the
EDGAR system.

     (c) Delivery of the reports and documents described in subsection (b) above to the Trustee and
Paying Agent is for informational purposes only, and the 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 Officers’ Certificate).

     (d) If, at any time during the six-month period beginning on, and including, the date which is
six months after the last original issuance date 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 and Form 6-K, as applicable), 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 does not include documents or reports that the Company furnishes to
the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. No Additional Interest under
this Section 4.06(d) will accrue after such six month period, regardless of whether such failure
has occurred or is continuing.

     (e) If, and for so long as, the restrictive legend on the Notes specified in Section 2.05(c)
has not been removed 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 365th 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 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).

28

 

     (f) Additional Interest will be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date following the
late filing in the same manner as regular interest on the Notes. The Company will not pay any
Additional Interest or other amounts on the Ordinary Shares, if any, received upon conversion.

     (g) 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.

     (h) 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 Officers’ 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 Officers’ 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 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 calendar days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company (beginning
with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2010) an Officers’ 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, including whether or not any default
has occurred 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 an Officer of the Company becomes aware of the occurrence of any Event of
Default or Default, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the details of such Event of Default or
Default, its status and the action that the Company proposes to take with respect thereto.

     Section 4.09. Further Instruments and Acts. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company will
execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably
necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Indenture.

29

 

     Section 4.10. Payment of Additional Amounts. All amounts payable (whether in respect of
principal, interest, any Additional Interest on the Notes payable by the Company, delivery of cash
and/or Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of a Holder’s conversion right or otherwise) in respect of
the Notes by the Company will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for
or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of
whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Spain or any political subdivision or
territory or possession thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax,
unless the withholding or deduction of such taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges is
required by law.

     (b) In the event any such withholding or deduction is required by law, the Company shall pay
to Holders of the Notes such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) as will result in receipt by
the beneficial owners of Notes of such amounts that would otherwise have been receivable by them
had no such withholding or deduction been required, except that no such Additional Amounts shall be
payable in respect of any Note:

     (i) to a beneficial owner of such Note who is liable for such taxes, duties,
assessments or governmental charges in respect of such Note by reason of it (or the
beneficial owner for whose benefit it holds such Note) having some connection with Spain
other than the mere holding of such Note (or such beneficial interest); or

     (ii) to a beneficial owner of such Note in respect of whom the Company does not receive
such information (which may include a tax residence certificate) concerning such beneficial
owner’s identity and tax residence (or the identity and tax residence of the beneficial
owner for whose benefit it holds such Note) pursuant to the Tax Certification Procedures as
it may require in order to comply with applicable legislation or regulation; or

     (iii) presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after
the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the relevant beneficial owner of such Note
would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting the same for payment on
the expiry of such period of 30 days; or

     (iv) where the withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to or for the benefit
of an individual and is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive
2003/48/EC or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to,
such Directive; or

     (v) presented for payment (where presentation is required) by or on behalf of a
beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by
presenting the relevant Note to another Paying Agent in a Member State of the European
Union; or

     (vi) to or for the benefit of an individual resident for tax purposes in Spain; or

     (vii) to or for the benefit of a Spanish-resident legal entity subject to Spanish
Corporate Income Tax if the Spanish tax authorities determine that the Notes do not

30

 

comply
with exemption requirements specified in the Reply to a Consultation of the Directorate
General for Taxation (Dirección General de Tributos) dated July 27, 2004 or otherwise
require a withholding to be made; or

     (viii) in the case of any combination of items listed in (i) through (vii) above.

     (c) For purposes of Section 4.10(b)(iii), the “Relevant Date” means, in respect of any
payment, the date on which such payment first becomes due and payable, but if the full amount of
the monies payable has not been received by the Paying Agent on or prior to such due date, it means
the first date on which the full amount of such monies having been so received and being available
for payment to Holders, notice to that effect having been duly given to the Holders in accordance
with this Indenture.

     (d) Additional Amounts shall not be paid with respect to any payment to a Holder of Notes who
is a fiduciary, a partnership, a limited liability company or person other than the sole beneficial
owner of that payment, to the extent that payment would be required by the laws of Spain (or any
political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or
settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a member of that partnership, an interest holder in that
limited liability company or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional
Amounts had it been the Holder of the Notes.

     (e) At least ten Business Days prior to the first Interest Payment Date (and at least ten
Business Days prior to each succeeding Interest Payment Date if there has been any change with
respect to the matters set forth in the below-mentioned Officers’ Certificate), the Company shall
furnish to the Trustee and the Paying Agent an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trustee and
the Paying Agent whether payments of principal of or interest on the Notes due on such Interest
Payment Date shall be without deduction or withholding for or on account of any tax. If any such
deduction or withholding shall be required, prior to such Interest Payment Date, the Issuer shall
furnish the Trustee and the Paying Agent with an Officers’ Certificate which specifies the amount,
if any, required to be withheld on such payment to Holders of the Notes and certifies that the
Company shall pay such withholding or deduction. The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall be
entitled to conclusively rely on such Officers’ Certificate and shall have no responsibility
whatsoever of any nature to determine whether any withholding or any other tax is due or payable,
the amount thereof or the amount of or obligation to pay any Additional Amounts.

     (f) Upon request, the Company shall provide the Trustee with documentation reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of taxes in respect of which the Company has
paid any Additional Amount. The Company shall make copies of such documentation available to the
Holders of the Notes or the Paying Agent upon request.

     (g) In the case of any merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease permitted
under Section 11.01, if the Successor Company’s jurisdiction of incorporation or residence for tax
purposes (the “Taxing Jurisdiction”) is not Spain or the United States, Additional Amounts shall be
payable under the Notes for any withholding taxes imposed by the Successor Corporation’s Taxing
Jurisdiction (subject to exceptions equivalent to those that apply to the obligation to pay
Additional Amounts for taxes imposed by Spain or any political

31

 

subdivision or territory or
possession thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax described
above under this Section 4.10) on all payments made on or after the date of the merger,
consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease rather than taxes imposed on those payments by
Spain or any political subdivision or territory or possession thereof or any authority or agency
therein or thereof having power to tax. Subject to the exceptions in this Section 4.10, Additional
Amounts will be payable prior to the date of the merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance, transfer
or lease (and Additional Amounts for payments of interest or principal made on or prior to the date
of an assumption under Section 11.02) only for taxes imposed by Spain or any political subdivision
or territory or possession thereof or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to
tax as provided in this Section 4.10.

     Section 4.11. Tax Certification Procedures. The Paying Agent, the Conversion Agent, the
Company, the Depositary and the Tax Certification and Conversion Processing Agent have agreed to
certain procedures to collect certain information with respect to beneficial owners of the Notes
pursuant to and in accordance with the Tax Certification Procedures set forth in Exhibit B hereto.

     Section 4.12. Maintenance of Tax Certification Procedures. So long as any principal amount
of the Notes remains outstanding, the Company shall, insofar as it is practicable, maintain,
implement or arrange for the implementation of Tax Certification Procedures that will facilitate
the collection of information concerning the Notes or the beneficial owners thereof, so long as
such collection is required under Spanish laws and regulations or any judicial or administrative
interpretation thereof to allow all amounts payable (whether in respect of principal, interest, any
Additional Interest on the Notes payable by the Company, delivery of cash and/or Ordinary Shares
upon the exercise of a Holder’s conversion right or otherwise) on the Notes to be paid free and
clear of Spanish withholding tax or deduction.

ARTICLE 5

Lists of Holders and Reports by the Company and the Trustee

     Section 5.01. Lists of Holders. The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or
cause to be furnished to the Trustee, semi-annually, not more than 15 days after each April 15 and
October 15 in each year beginning with October 15, 2010 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 it to timely provide any notice to be
provided by it hereunder), a list in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names
and addresses of the Holders as of a date not more than 15 days (or such other date as the Trustee
may reasonably request in order to so provide any such notices) prior to the time such information
is furnished, except that no such list need be furnished so long as the Trustee is acting as Note
Registrar.

     Section 5.02. Preservation and Disclosure of Lists. The Trustee shall preserve, in as
current a form as is reasonably 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.

32

 

ARTICLE 6

     Section 6.01. Events of Default. The following events shall be “Events of Default” with

     (a) failure by the Company to pay any interest or Additional Amounts on any Note when due and
payable, and such failure continues for a period of 30 calendar days;

has been given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at
least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding;

     (i) failure by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to pay when due (whether at stated
maturity or otherwise) or a default that results in the acceleration of maturity, of any
indebtedness for borrowed money of the Company or any Subsidiaries of the Company in an aggregate
amount in excess of $15,000,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent), unless such indebtedness is
discharged, or such acceleration is rescinded, stayed or annulled, within a period of 30 calendar
days after written notice of such failure is given to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company
and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding;

     (j) a final judgment for the payment in excess of $15,000,000 (excluding any amounts covered
by insurance) rendered against the Company or any Subsidiaries of the Company, which judgment is
not discharged or stayed within 60 calendar days after (i) the date on which the right to appeal or
petition for review thereof has expired if no such appeal or review has commenced, or (ii) the date
on which all rights to appeal or petition for review have been extinguished;

33

 

     (k) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary of the Company 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 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

     (l) an involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary of the Company 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 60 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(k) or Section 6.01(l) 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 in this Indenture or in the Notes
contained to the contrary notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(k) or
Section 6.01(l) with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries occurs and is
continuing, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all Notes shall be automatically
and immediately due and payable.

     This provision, 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, (a) the
Company shall have paid (or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay) (i) all overdue
interest (including Additional Interest, if any) upon all Notes; (ii) the principal amount of any
and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration; (iii)
to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest on overdue installments of accrued
and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest, if any); and (iv) amounts due to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 7.06, and (b) 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 declaration of acceleration, shall have been cured or waived
pursuant to Section 6.09, then and in every such case (except as provided

34

 

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 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) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, or Additional
Amounts on, or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and Redemption
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 deliver the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes or
(iii) a default in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article 10 cannot be
modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of an outstanding Note affected.

     Section 6.03. Additional Interest. 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 for the first 90 days after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of
the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the
principal amount of the Notes outstanding from, and including, the date on which such Event of
Default first occurs to, but excluding the 90th day thereafter (or such earlier date on which such
Event of Default shall have been cured or waived). 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 such 90th
day, if such Event of Default is continuing, such Additional Interest will cease to accrue and 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 90 days after
the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the
Company must notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such election
prior to the beginning of such 90-day period. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the
Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.02.

     Section 6.04. Payments of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described
in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 6.01 shall have occurred, the Company shall, upon demand of
the Trustee, pay to it, 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 overdue principal and
interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Notes plus one percent 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

35

 

judgment or
final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes and
collect the monies 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 compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel and any other amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06) 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 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 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
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 the 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.

     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

36

 

trust, and any
recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel and any other amounts due to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 7.06, 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 such waiver or rescission and
annulment 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 6 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, Redemption 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, the
Redemption 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
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, the Redemption Price
and any cash due upon conversion) and accrued and unpaid interest; and

37

 

     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 and the Redemption
Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be, 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 hereinbefore 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 institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own
name as Trustee hereunder;

     (c) such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee such security or indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it against any costs, liability or expense to be incurred therein or thereby;

     (d) the Trustee for 60 calendar days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; 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 in principal amount of
the Notes 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). 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 and the Redemption Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued
and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of,
such Note, on or after the 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 deliver, 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.

38

 

     Section 6.07. Proceedings by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default the Trustee may
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 6 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 any acquiescence
therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.06, every power and remedy given by this
Article 6 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 in 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 (a) such direction shall
not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and (b) 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 failure by the Company to
pay principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the Redemption Price) of, or
interest or Additional Amounts on, any Notes when due that has not been cured pursuant to the
provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Company to convert any Notes into cash, Ordinary
Shares or a combination thereof as required by Section 14.02 or (iii) a failure by the Company to
comply with any of the provisions of this Indenture that would require the consent of the Holder of
each 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 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.

39

 

     Section 6.10. Notice of Defaults. The Company shall notify the Trustee promptly upon
becoming aware of the occurrence of any Default. Following receipt of such notice, the Trustee is
then required, within 90 calendar days, to provide notice of such Default to all Holders as the
names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register. The Trustee may withhold notice
to the Holders of any Default, including any Defaults that shall have been cured or waived;
provided that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (including the
Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the Redemption Price, if applicable), accrued and unpaid
interest on or Additional Amounts 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 a committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determine 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 and the Redemption 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 14.

ARTICLE 7

Concerning the Trustee

     Section 7.01. Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee. (a) 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. Notwithstanding the forgoing or any
other provision in this Indenture, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers under or pursuant to this Indenture and the Notes at the request or direction of
any of the Holders unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee indemnity or security
satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and

40

 

liabilities that might be
incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction or the taking, or failure to take, any
particular action or the exercise of such right or power.

     (b) 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:

     (i) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving of
all Events of Default that may have occurred, 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 and willful misconduct 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);

     (c) the Trustee shall not be liable for action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it 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;

     (d) notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and whether or not therein provided,
every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of, or
affording protection to, the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section, Section
7.02 and Section 7.06;

     (e) the Trustee shall not be liable in respect of any payment (as to the correctness of
amount, entitlement to receive or any other matters relating to payment) or notice effected by the
Company or the Paying Agent or any records maintained by any co-Note Registrar with respect to the
Notes;

     (f) 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 such
Responsible Officer of the Trustee had actual knowledge of such event;

     (g) 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 incurred thereon or for losses
incurred as a result of the liquidation of any such investment prior to its maturity date or

41

 

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;

     (h) notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture and whether or not therein provided,
the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to this Article 7 shall also be
afforded to the Custodian, Note Registrar, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent
or transfer agent;

     (i) notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture and whether or not therein provided,
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, including, for the avoidance of doubt,
compensation for its services hereunder, in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers; and

     (j) the Trustee shall not be required to do anything which it believes is illegal or contrary
to any applicable law or regulation.

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

     (a) the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting upon any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
bond, Note, coupon or other paper or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to
have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

     (b) any request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be
sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate (unless other evidence in respect thereof be
herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the Trustee by a copy
thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;

     (c) the Trustee may consult with counsel and require an opinion of counsel and any advice of
such counsel or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such
advice or Opinion of Counsel;

     (d) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in
it by this Indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to the
provisions of this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or
indemnity satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against the costs, expenses and liabilities
that may be incurred therein or thereby;

     (e) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may
make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see

42

 

fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation,
it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company at reasonable times,
in a reasonable manner and upon reasonable advance notice, personally or by agent or attorney at
the expense of the Company and shall incur no liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or
investigation;

     (f) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties
hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys and the
Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent,
custodian, nominee or attorney appointed by it with due care hereunder;

     (g) the permissive rights of the Trustee enumerated herein shall not be construed as duties;

     (h) the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the
performance of its duties or the exercise of its powers under this Indenture; and

     (i) in the event the Trustee receives inconsistent or conflicting requests and indemnity from
two or more Holders or groups of Holders, each representing less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, each pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture,
the Trustee, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, determine what action, if
any, shall be taken and the Trustee shall suffer no liability from so determining or not
determining what action, if any, shall be taken, as the case may be, or otherwise from failing to
act.

     In no event shall the Trustee be liable for any consequential loss or damage of any kind
whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the
likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee shall not be
charged 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 Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the
Company or by any Holder of the Notes.

     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 or the Ordinary Shares. 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 Agent, Conversion Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent or Note
Registrar May Own Notes. The Trustee, Paying Agent, 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.

43

 

     Section 7.05. Monies and Ordinary Shares to Be Held in Trust. All monies and Ordinary Shares
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 Ordinary Shares held by the Trustee in trust
hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The
Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money or Ordinary Shares received by it
hereunder except as may be agreed from time to time 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, 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 expenses, disbursements and advances properly incurred or made by the Trustee
in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture in any capacity thereunder (including
the 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, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Company also covenants to
indemnify the Trustee in any capacity under this Indenture and any other document or transaction
entered into in connection herewith (other than as Holder of Notes) and its officers, directors,
employees, representatives and agents for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, claim,
damage, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith on
the part of the Trustee, its officers, directors, agents or employees, or such 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 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 or 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 incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(k) or Section 6.01(l) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are
intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
laws.

     Section 7.07. Officers’ Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in Section
7.01, whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it
necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or omitting any

44

 

action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of gross negligence, willful misconduct and bad faith on the part
of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officers’ Certificate
delivered to the Trustee, and such Officers’ Certificate, in the absence of gross negligence,
willful misconduct and bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee
for any action taken or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith
thereof.

     Section 7.08. Eligibility of Trustee. There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder. 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 7.09. 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 sixty days after the mailing of
such notice of resignation to the Holders, the resigning Trustee may, upon ten Business Days’
notice to the Company and the Holders, 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
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
7.08 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such
Holder, or

     (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 and all others
similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and

45

 

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.

     (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 that shall be deemed appointed as successor trustee unless within ten
days after notice to the Company of such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case the
Trustee so removed or any Holder, upon the terms and conditions and otherwise as in Section 7.09(a)
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 7.09 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment
by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.10.

     Section 7.10. Acceptance by Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as provided
in Section 7.09 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.

     No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 7.10 unless at the
time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section
7.08.

     Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section 7.10, 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.

     Section 7.11. 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

46

 

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 7.08.

     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 7.12. 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
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 8

Concerning the Holders

     Section 8.01. Action by Holders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the Holders
of a specified percentage in 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 (a) by 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 9, or (c) by

47

 

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 fix, but shall not be required to, 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, the authenticating
agent, the Paying Agent, the 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; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor the Paying Agent nor the Conversion Agent nor
any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to
any Holder for the time being, or upon its order, shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or
sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for monies payable upon any such
Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or the Notes following an Event
of Default, any Holder 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 Holder’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 the outstanding Notes have concurred in any modification,
amendment or waiver of the terms of this Indenture, Notes that are owned by the Company or by any
Affiliate of the Company shall be disregarded (from both the numerator and denominator) 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 relying on any such modification, amendment
or waiver only Notes that a Responsible Officer 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 or an Affiliate of the Company. In the case of a dispute as to
such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection
to the Trustee. Upon request of the Trustee, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee promptly an
Officers’ 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

48

 

Section 7.01,
the Trustee shall be entitled to accept such Officers’ 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 in 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.

shall also be mailed to the Company. Such notices shall be mailed not less than twenty nor more

49

 

     Any meeting of Holders shall be valid without notice if the Holders of all Notes then

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

Trustee shall not have mailed the notice of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of such

appointment and duties of inspectors of votes, the submission and examination of proxies,
certificates and other evidence of the right to vote, and such other matters concerning the conduct
of the meeting as it shall think fit.

     The Trustee shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting,
unless the meeting shall have been called by the Company or by Holders as provided in Section 9.03,
in which case the Company or the Holders calling the meeting, as the case may be, shall in like
manner appoint a temporary chairman. A permanent chairman and a permanent secretary of the meeting
shall be elected by vote of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes represented
at the meeting and entitled to vote at the meeting.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 8.04, at any meeting of Holders each Holder or

represented by such Holder; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or counted at any meeting
in respect of any Note challenged as not outstanding and ruled by the chairperson of the
meeting to be not outstanding. The chairperson of the meeting shall have no right to vote
other than by virtue of Notes held by the chairperson or instruments in writing as aforesaid duly
designating the chairperson as the proxy to vote on behalf of other Holders. Any meeting of
Holders duly called pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.02 or Section 9.03 may be adjourned
from time to time by the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of Notes
represented at the meeting, whether or not constituting a quorum, and the meeting may be held as so
adjourned without further notice.

the secretary of the meeting their verified written reports in duplicate of all votes cast at the
meeting. A record in duplicate of the proceedings of each meeting of Holders shall be prepared by
the secretary of the meeting and there shall be attached to said record the original reports of the
inspectors of votes on any vote by ballot taken thereat and affidavits by one or more Persons
having knowledge of the facts setting forth a copy of the notice of the meeting and showing that
said notice was mailed as provided in Section 9.02. The record shall show the principal amount of
the Notes voting in favor of or against any resolution. The record shall be signed and verified by
the affidavits of the permanent chairperson and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates
shall be delivered to the Company and the other to the Trustee to be preserved by the Trustee, the
latter to have attached thereto the ballots voted at the meeting.

     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 9 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.

ARTICLE 10

     Section 10.01. Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Company, when

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.

     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 8) of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of

limitation, consents obtained in connection with a repurchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer
for, Notes), the Company, when authorized by the resolutions of the Board of Directors and the
Trustee and all of the agents appointed under this Indenture, 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

     No modification or amendment may be made to the subordination provisions of this Indenture if
such modification or amendment would adversely affect the rights of any holder of senior
indebtedness of the Company then outstanding unless holders of such senior indebtedness (or any
group or representative thereof authorized to give a consent) consent to such change.

     This Indenture (including the terms and conditions of the Notes) may be modified or amended,
except as described above, with the written consent or affirmative vote of the Holders of a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding.

     Upon the written request of the Company, and upon the filing with the Trustee and all of the
agents appointed under this Indenture of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and
subject to Section 10.05, the Trustee and all of the agents appointed under this Indenture shall

Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee or such agents may in their discretion, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

53

 

     Holders do not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed
supplemental indenture, but 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 10, 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 10 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 17.11) 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 17.06, the Trustee shall receive an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture
executed pursuant hereto complies with the requirements of this Article 10 and is permitted or
authorized by the Indenture.

ARTICLE 11

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, in a single transaction or a series of related
transactions, consolidate with, merge with or into any other Person or sell, convey, transfer
or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person, unless:

     (a) Either (i) the Company is the continuing corporation or (ii) the resulting, surviving or
transferee Person (the “Successor Company”), if other than the Company, shall be a corporation
organized and existing under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain, the United Kingdom or the United
States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and the Successor Company (if not
the Company) shall expressly assume, by supplemental indenture in a form

54

 

reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee and all of the agents appointed under this Indenture, all of the obligations of the
Company under the Notes and this Indenture;

     (b) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing under this Indenture; and

     (c) if as a result of such transaction the Notes become convertible into ordinary shares,
common stock or other securities issued by a third party, such third party fully and
unconditionally guarantees all obligations of the Company or such Successor Company under the Notes
and this Indenture.

     For purposes of this Section 11.01, the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of all or
substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Company to
another Person, which properties and assets, if held by the Company instead of such Subsidiaries,
would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Company on a
consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the sale, conveyance, transfer or lease of the properties
and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to another Person.

     Section 11.02. Successor Company to Be Substituted. In case of any such consolidation,
merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease and upon the assumption by the Successor Company, by
supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and reasonably satisfactory in form
to the Trustee, 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
shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if it had been named
herein as the party of the first part, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of
the Company’s properties and assets. 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 11 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 11 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.

55

 

     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.

     The Successor Company shall also be entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to Article 16 for
any change or amendment to, or change in the application or interpretation of, the laws or
regulations of such entity’s taxing jurisdiction or the issuance of a tax ruling or action taken by
the Spanish tax authorities applying or interpreting such laws or regulations (which becomes
effective or is announced on or after the date of the merger, consolidation, sale, conveyance,
transfer or lease).

     Section 11.03. Opinion of Counsel to Be Given Trustee. No consolidation, merger, sale,
conveyance, transfer or lease shall be effective unless the Trustee shall receive an Officers’
Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation, 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 11.

ARTICLE 12

Immunity of Incorporators, Shareholders, Officers and Directors

     Section 12.01. Indenture and Notes Solely Corporate Obligations. No recourse for the payment
of the principal of or accrued and unpaid interest on any Note, nor for any claim based thereon or
otherwise in respect thereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement
of the Company in this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture or in any Note, nor because of
the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator,
shareholder, employee, agent, Officer or director or Subsidiary, as such, past, present or future,
of the Company or of any successor corporation or entity, either directly or through the Company or
any successor corporation or entity, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law,
or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly understood that
all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a
consideration for, the execution of this Indenture and the issue of the Notes.

ARTICLE 13

Subordination

     Section 13.01. Subordination. (a) The Notes constitute the Company’s direct and unsecured
obligations (créditos ordinarios) and rank pari passu and ratably, without any preference among
themselves and shall rank, save for the Senior Credit Facility, at least equally with all of the
Company’s other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, save for such
obligations that may be preferred by provisions of law that are mandatory and of general
application.

56

 

     (b) The Company’s payment obligations under the Notes shall be subordinated to its payment
obligations in respect of the Senior Credit Facility to the effect that in the event that the
Company is in liquidation (liquidación), subject to insolvency proceedings (concurso) or generally
unable to meet its payment obligations, the Holders’ entitlement to any payment to be received in
respect of the Notes shall be subordinated.

     (c) The Company shall not incur, directly or indirectly, or otherwise become liable for, any
indebtedness, other than the Senior Credit Facility, that is senior in right of payment to the
Notes.

ARTICLE 14

Conversion of Notes

     Section 14.01. Conversion Privilege. (a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions
of this Article 14, each Holder 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 14.01(b),
at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 15,
2015 under the circumstances and during the periods set forth in Section 14.01(b), and (ii)
irrespective of the conditions described in Section 14.01(b), on or after January 15, 2015 and
prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each
case, at an initial conversion rate of 29.2590 Ordinary Shares (subject to adjustment as provided
in Section 14.04, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject to the
settlement provisions of Section 14.02, the “Conversion Obligation”).

     (b) (i) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding January 15,
2015 the Notes may be surrendered for conversion during the five consecutive Business Day period
immediately following any five 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 such Measurement
Period was less than 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares for each
day during the Measurement Period and the applicable Conversion Rate. 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 of the two 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 shall have no obligation to determine the Trading Price of the Notes unless the
Company has requested such determination, and the Company shall have no obligation to make such
request unless a Holder requests the Company to do so, at which time the Company shall instruct the
Bid Solicitation Agent to determine the Trading Price of the Notes for each Trading Day until the
Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes is greater than or equal to 98% of the product
of the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the applicable Conversion Rate. If the
Company does not instruct the Bid Solicitation Agent to obtain bids when required, or the Bid
Solicitation Agent does not obtain such bids when instructed to do so by the Company,

57

 

then the Trading Price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be deemed to be less than 98% of the
product of the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the applicable 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, the Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the
Trustee) and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee). 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 98% of the product of the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares and the
applicable Conversion Rate, the Company shall so notify the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee, the
Bid Solicitation Agent (if other than the Trustee) and the Conversion Agent (if other than the
Trustee). The Company shall initially act as the Bid Solicitation Agent, but it may appoint any
other Person to be the Bid Solicitation Agent without prior notice. The Trustee and the Conversion
Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no responsibility or liability for any determinations
made in connection with the foregoing provisions.

     (ii) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding January
15, 2015, if the Company elects to:

     (A) distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares
rights or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a period of 45 calendar days or
less from the issuance date for such distribution, its Ordinary Shares at a price
per share less than the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares
for the 10 Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the
declaration date for such distribution; or

     (B) distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares the
Company’s cash or other assets, debt securities or rights to purchase securities of
the Company (other than pursuant to a rights plan), which distribution has a per
share value, as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors, exceeding 10% of
the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the declaration date 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) at least 45 Business Days prior to the
Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution, except that the Company may notify all Holders of
the Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) 25 Business Days
prior to such Ex-Dividend Date if the Company settles any conversions during the period
beginning on, and including, the date on which the Company notifies Holders of such
distribution and ending on, and including, the Business Day preceding
the relevant Ex-Dividend Date (or any announcement by the Company that such distribution
will not take place) by Physical Settlement or Cash Settlement. 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 preceding such Ex-Dividend Date or (2) the
Company’s announcement that such distribution will not take place, even if the Notes are not
otherwise convertible at such time. A Holder shall not convert any of its Notes pursuant to
this paragraph of Section 14.01(b)(ii) if it will otherwise participate in the distribution,
at the same time and on the same terms as a holder of Ordinary Shares as if such Holder held
a number of Ordinary Shares per $1,000

58

 

principal amount of Notes equal to the applicable
Conversion Rate, without conversion, as a result of holding the Notes.

     In addition to the foregoing conversion right, the Notes may be surrendered for
conversion if the Company is a party to a consolidation, merger, binding share exchange or
sale or conveyance of all or substantially all of its property and assets that does not
constitute a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole Fundamental Change, in each case, pursuant
to which the Ordinary Shares would be converted into cash, securities and/or other property.
The Company shall notify all Holders of the Notes at least 45 Business Days prior to the
anticipated effective date for any such transaction. In such event, the Notes may be
surrendered for conversion at any time beginning 45 Business Days prior to the date the
Company notifies all Holders of the Notes as being the anticipated effective date of the
transaction and until and including the date which is 15 calendar days after the date that
is the actual effective date of such transaction.

     (iii) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding January
15, 2015, if a transaction or event that constitutes a Fundamental Change or a Make-Whole
Fundamental Change occurs, regardless of whether a Holder has the right to require the
Company to purchase the Notes pursuant to Section 15.01, or if the Company calls any or all
of the Notes for redemption pursuant to Article 16, the Notes may be surrendered for
conversion at any time on or after the effective date of such transaction until (i) in the
case of a Fundamental Change, the close of business on the Business Day preceding the
relevant Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, (ii) in the case of a Redemption, the close of
business on the Business Day preceding the relevant Redemption Date or (iii) in the case of
a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for clause
(4)(c) of the definition thereof, the 25th Trading Day immediately following the Effective
Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change. The Company shall notify all Holders of the
Notes, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of the anticipated
effective date of any Fundamental Change or Make-Whole Fundamental Change at least 20
calendar days prior to such date.

     (iv) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding January
15, 2015, the Notes may be surrendered for conversion on any date during any calendar
quarter beginning after June 30, 2010 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the
Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares was more than 130% of the applicable Conversion
Price for at least 20 Trading Days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of 30
consecutive Trading Days ending on the last Trading Day of the previous calendar
quarter. The Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent if the Notes
become convertible in accordance with this clause (iv).

     Section 14.02. Conversion Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.

     (a) Subject to this Section 14.02 and Section 14.03(b), upon any conversion of any Note, the
Company shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, to converting Holders, in respect of each $1,000
principal amount of Notes being converted, cash (“Cash Settlement”), Ordinary Shares, together with
cash, if applicable, in lieu of any fractional Ordinary Share in accordance

59

 

with subsection (j) of
this Section 14.02 (“Physical Settlement”) or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, together
with cash, if applicable, in lieu of any fractional Ordinary Share in accordance with subsection
(j) of this Section 14.02 (“Combination Settlement”), at its election, as set forth in this Section
14.02.

     (i) If the Company chooses to deliver Ordinary Shares to converting Holders, either by
Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement, in satisfaction of its Conversion Obligation,
the Company may, at its election, choose to satisfy its Conversion Obligation by the
transfer of outstanding Ordinary Shares or, if (A) the New Issue Requirements have been met,
and (B) the Conversion Price (after adjustment, as applicable) in Euros is equal to or
greater than the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares in Euros at the Currency Exchange
Rate, the issuance and delivery of newly-issued Ordinary Shares; provided that the Company
shall treat all conversions with the same Company Process Date (as hereinafter defined)
equally. If the requirements for issuing new shares as described in the preceding sentence
are not met and the Company chooses not to transfer outstanding Ordinary Shares to
converting Holders, Cash Settlement shall apply to such conversions. If (x) the New Issue
Requirements have been met or (y) the Conversion Price (after adjustment, as applicable) in
Euros is less than the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares in Euros at the Currency
Exchange Rate, the Company shall promptly notify the converting Holders, the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) the occurrence of such event. On or after
satisfaction of the New Issue Requirements, the Company shall have the right, upon five
Business Days’ prior written notice to all Holders of the Notes, to irrevocably elect
Physical Settlement for all subsequent conversions.

     (ii) For all conversions of Notes as to which Physical Settlement or Combination
Settlement applies, except as described in provisions (iii) and (iv) of this Section
14.02(a), the Company shall act upon those conversions, including obtaining all necessary
authorizations and other corporate actions to issue Ordinary Shares upon conversion, on
Tuesday of each calendar week, or if such Tuesday is not a Business Day, on the immediately
succeeding Business Day (such Tuesday or succeeding Business Day, the “Company Process
Date”) in respect of all Notes converted on or prior to the close of business on the
preceding Friday, or if such Friday is not a Business Day, on the immediately succeeding
Business Day.

     (iii) All conversions with relevant Conversion Dates occurring on or after the 25th
Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date shall be settled using the
same Settlement Method. For all conversions during this period as to which
Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement applies, the relevant Company Process
Date will be the Maturity Date, notwithstanding clause (ii) above. If the Company has not
delivered a Settlement Notice prior to the 25th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding
the Maturity Date, the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement and
the Specified Dollar Amount shall be equal to $1,000.

     (iv) All conversions with relevant Conversion Dates occurring after the date of
issuance of a Redemption Notice and prior to the related Redemption Date shall be settled
using the same Settlement Method. For all conversions during this period as to

60

 

which Physical Settlement or Combination Settlement applies, the relevant Company Process Date
will be the Redemption Date, notwithstanding clause (ii) above. If the Company has not
delivered a Settlement Notice prior to the 22nd Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding
such Redemption Date, the Company shall be deemed to have elected Combination Settlement and
the Specified Dollar Amount shall be equal to $1,000.

     (v) Prior to the 25th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date,
the Company shall use the same Settlement Method for all conversions with the same
Conversion Date or the same Company Process Date. Except for any conversions with relevant
Conversion Dates that occur (A) on or after the 25th Scheduled Trading Day immediately
preceding the Maturity Date or (B) after the date of issuance of a Redemption Notice by the
Company and prior to the related Redemption Date, the Company shall not have any obligation
to use the same Settlement Method with respect to conversions with different Conversion
Dates (other than such conversions with the same Company Process Date) or different Company
Process Dates.

     (vi) If, in respect of any Conversion Date, the Company elects a relevant Settlement
Method in respect of such Conversion Date, the Company shall, through the Conversion Agent,
deliver a notice of the relevant Settlement Method (the “Settlement Notice”) to converting
Holders as follows:

     (A) in the case of any conversions with a relevant Conversion Date occurring
on or after the 25th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date,
no later than the 25th Scheduled Trading Day immediately preceding the Maturity
Date;

     (B) in the case of any conversions with a relevant Conversion Date occurring
after the date of issuance of a Redemption Notice, concurrently with delivery of
such Redemption Notice; and

     (C) in all other cases, no later than the second Trading Day immediately
following the related Conversion Date.

     If the Company does not elect a Settlement Method prior to the periods set forth above
in this Section 14.03(a)(vi), the Company shall no longer have the right to elect Cash
Settlement or Physical Settlement and the Company shall be deemed to have elected
Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion Obligation, and the
Specified Dollar Amount shall be equal to $1,000. Such Settlement Notice shall specify the
relevant Settlement Method and in the case of an election of Combination Settlement, the
relevant Settlement Notice shall indicate the Specified Dollar Amount. If the Company
delivers a Settlement Notice electing Combination Settlement in respect of its Conversion
Obligation but does not indicate a Specified Dollar Amount in such Settlement Notice, the
Specified Dollar Amount shall be deemed to be equal to $1,000.

61

 

     (vii) The cash, Ordinary Shares or combination of cash and Ordinary Shares due upon any
conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows:

     (A) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of
such conversion by Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver to the converting
Holder a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (1) the aggregate
principal amount of Notes to be converted, divided by $1,000, and (2) the
Conversion Rate in effect on the related Company Process Date;

     (B) if the Company elects to satisfy its Conversion Obligation in respect of
such conversion by Cash Settlement, the Company shall pay to the converting Holder
in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted cash in an
amount equal to the sum of the Daily Conversion Values for each of the 20
consecutive Trading Days during the relevant Conversion Period; or

     (C) if the Company elects (or is deemed to have elected) to satisfy its
Conversion Obligation in respect of such conversion by Combination Settlement, the
Company shall deliver or pay, as the case may be, in respect of each $1,000
principal amount of Notes being converted, a Settlement Amount equal to a number of
Ordinary Shares, if any, and an amount of cash equal to the sum of the Daily
Settlement Amounts for each of the 20 consecutive Trading Days during the relevant
Conversion Period.

     (viii) The Daily Settlement Amounts (if applicable) and the Daily Conversion Values (if
applicable) shall be determined by the Company promptly following the last day of the
Conversion Period. Promptly after such determination of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the
Daily Conversion Values, as the case may be, and the amount of cash deliverable in lieu of
any fractional share, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if
other than the Trustee) of the Daily Settlement Amounts or the Daily Conversion Values, as
the case may be, and the amount of cash deliverable in lieu of fractional Ordinary Shares.
The Trustee and the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) shall have no
responsibility for any such determination.

     (b) Before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert the same 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 the interest payable on the next Interest
Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled as set forth in Section 14.02(h) and, if
required, all transfer or similar taxes, if any, as required by Section 14.02(e) and (ii) in the
case of a Physical Note (1) complete and manually sign 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”) 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
Ordinary Shares to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation to be registered, (2)
deliver the completed Notice of Conversion and the Notes to be converted, duly endorsed to the
Company or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate endorsement and transfer

62

 

documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, pay funds equal to interest (but excluding any
Additional Interest) payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled
as set forth in Section 14.02(h), (4) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and (5) if required, pay all transfer or similar taxes, if any, as required by Section
14.02(e). The Conversion Agent shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant to this Article
14 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 15.02.

     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, if any, that shall be payable upon conversion,
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. In the case of Physical Settlement, the Company shall deliver the number of
Ordinary Shares due upon conversion on the tenth Business Day immediately following the Company
Process Date and any cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with subsection (j) of this
Section 14.02 on the third Business Day immediately following the Company Process Date. In the
case of Combination Settlement, the Company shall pay or deliver the number of Ordinary Shares and
cash (including any cash in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with subsection (j) of this
Section 14.02) due upon conversion on the tenth Business Day immediately following the final
Trading Day of the related Conversion Period. In the case of Cash Settlement, the Company shall
pay the amount of cash due upon conversion on the third Business Day immediately following the
final Trading Day of the related Conversion Period. The date on which any cash or Ordinary Shares
become due and payable upon conversion is the “Settlement Date”. If any Ordinary Shares are due to
converting Holders, the Company shall issue or cause to be issued subject to Section 14.02(a)(i),
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 Ordinary Shares
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, if required by the Company or Trustee, 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, capital,
stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issue of any Ordinary Shares upon

63

 

conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests any 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 Ordinary Shares being issued in a name other than the
Holder’s name until the Trustee receives notice that any tax due by such Holder has been paid.

     (f) Except as provided in Section 14.04, no adjustment shall be made for dividends on any
shares issued upon the conversion of any Note as provided in this Article 14.

     (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 the 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, but not including, the Conversion Date. As a
result, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Conversion Date shall be
deemed to be paid in full with Ordinary Shares issued or cash paid upon conversion rather than
cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Upon a conversion of Notes, accrued and unpaid interest will
be deemed to be paid first out of any cash paid upon such conversion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on an Interest
Record Date but prior to the open of business on the corresponding Interest Record Date, Holders of
such Notes as of the close of business on such Interest Record Date will receive the interest
accrued and unpaid on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the
conversion prior to the Interest Payment Date. Notes surrendered for conversion during the period
from the close of business on any Interest Record Date to the open of business on the corresponding
Interest Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest that has accrued
and shall be paid on the Notes so converted; provided that no such payment shall be required (1)
for conversions of Notes following the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity
Date; (2) for conversions of Notes in connection with a Fundamental Change and the Company has
specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after an Interest Record Date and on or
prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date; (3) if the Company has specified a Redemption
Date that is after an Interest Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment
Date, and Notes are surrendered for conversion after the close of business on such Interest Record
Date and on or before the open of business on such Interest Payment Date; or (4) to the extent of
any Defaulted Amounts, if any Defaulted Amounts exists at the time of conversion with respect to
such Notes.

     (i) Holders of the Notes shall not be entitled to any rights with respect to the Company’s
Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion (including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to
receive any dividends or other distributions on the Ordinary Shares) until the Settlement Date of
such conversion. If the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of Ordinary Shares
cash, securities (including Ordinary Shares) or other assets that Holders of the Notes would have
received if they were holders of Ordinary Shares as of the Company

64

 

Process Date (in the case of Physical Settlement) or the final Trading Day of the related
Conversion Period (in the case of Combination Settlement), the Company shall make appropriate
provisions to account for such distribution by either adjusting the amount of cash and/or the
number of Ordinary Shares due upon conversion or by distributing securities or other assets to such
Holders. 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 Ordinary Share upon conversion of the Notes and
shall instead pay cash in lieu of any fractional Ordinary Share issuable upon conversion based on
the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the relevant Company Process Date (in the case of
Physical Settlement) or based on the Closing Sale Price of the Ordinary Shares on the final Trading
Day of the relevant Conversion Period (in the case of Combination Settlement). In addition, if
more than one Note shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number
of full Ordinary Shares, if any, that shall be issued upon conversion thereof shall be computed on
the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof) so
surrendered.

     Section 14.03 . Adjustments to the Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in
Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes. (a) If a Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs and
a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the
Company shall, under certain circumstances, increase the Conversion Rate for the Notes so
surrendered for conversion by a number of additional Ordinary Shares (the “Additional Shares”), as
described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection
with” such Make-Whole Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the
Conversion Agent on or after the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change but before (i)
in the case of a Redemption, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the
relevant Redemption Date, (ii) in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been
a Fundamental Change but for clause (4)(c) of the definition thereof, the 25th Trading Day
immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change or (iii) in all
other cases, the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the related
Fundamental Change Repurchase Date as specified in the Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice.

     (b) Upon surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change
pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(iii), the Company shall, at its option, satisfy the related Conversion
Obligation by Physical Settlement, Cash Settlement or Combination Settlement in accordance with
Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change
described in clause (1) or (4) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference Property is
comprised 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
Share Price for the transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the Conversion Rate
(including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Share Price. In such event,
the Conversion Obligation shall be paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the
Conversion Date. The Company shall notify (i) the Holders of Notes of the anticipated Effective
Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change at least 20 calendar days prior to such anticipated
Effective Date (or, in the case of a Redemption, at least 35 Business Days prior to the relevant
Redemption Date)

65

 

and (ii) the Holders, the Trustee, Conversion Agent and the Paying Agent of the Effective Date
of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change (other than a Redemption) no later than five calendar days
after such Effective Date. The Effective Date for any Redemption of the Notes shall be the date on
which the Company delivers the relevant Redemption Notice.

     (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 “Share
Price”) paid (or deemed paid) per Ordinary Share in the Make-Whole Fundamental Change. If the
holders of the Ordinary Shares receive only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in
clause (1) or (4) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Share Price shall be the cash amount
paid per share. Otherwise, the Share Price shall be the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the
Ordinary Shares over the five Trading Day period prior to, but excluding, the Effective Date of the
Make-Whole Fundamental Change. The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the
Share 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 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 14.04. The Share Prices
set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be simultaneously adjusted to equal the
Share Prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which
is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the
Conversion Rate as so adjusted.

     (e) The following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion
Rate shall be increased pursuant to this Section 14.03 for each Share Price and Effective Date set
forth below:

     The exact Share Prices and Effective Dates may not be set forth in the table above, in
which case, if the Share Price is:

     (i) between two Share Prices in the table or the Effective Date is between two
Effective Dates in the table, 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 Share Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a
360-day year;

66

 

     (ii) in excess of $85.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner and at the
same time as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant
to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be issued upon conversion; and

     (iii) less than $27.90 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner and at the
same time as the Share Prices set forth in the column headings of the table above pursuant
to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be issued upon conversion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon
conversion exceed 35.8422 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, subject to adjustment in the same
manner as the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04.

     (f) Nothing in this Section 14.03 shall prevent an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant
to Section 14.04 in respect of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change.

     Section 14.04. 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 Ordinary Shares and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the
transactions described in this Section 14.04 without having to convert their Notes, as if they held
a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the applicable Conversion Rate, multiplied by the principal
amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

     (a) If the Company issues Ordinary Shares as a dividend or distribution on Ordinary Shares, or
if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted
based on the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	OS1	 	 
	 

	 	CR1
	 	=
	 	CR0
	 	x
	 	 

	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0	 	 

where,

	 	 	 	 	 

	CR1

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to
the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for
such dividend or distribution or the effective
date of such share split or share combination, as
the case may be;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	CR0

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of
business on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or
distribution or the effective date of such share
split or share combination, as the case may be;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	OS0

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at the
close of business on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend
or distribution or the effective date of such
share split or share combination, as applicable;
and

67

 

	 	 	 	 	 

	OS1

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding
immediately after, and solely as a result of,
giving effect to such dividend, distribution,
share split or share combination, as the case may
be.

Any adjustment made under this Section 14.04(a) shall become effective immediately prior to 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. If any
dividend or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.04(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 distributes to all or substantially all holders of its Ordinary Shares any
rights or warrants entitling them to purchase, for a period of 45 calendar days or less from the
issuance date for such distribution, Ordinary Shares, at a price per share less than the average of
the Closing Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on
the Trading Day immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution, the Conversion
Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0 + X	 	 
	 

	 	CR1
	 	=
	 	CR0
	 	x
	 	 

	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	OS0 + Y	 	 

where,

	 	 	 	 	 

	CR1

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

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of
business on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	OS0

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at the
close of business on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such
distribution;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	X

	 	=
	 	the total number of Ordinary Shares issuable
pursuant to such rights or warrants; and
	 
	 	 	 	 
	Y

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the
aggregate price payable to exercise such rights or
warrants, divided by the average of the Closing
Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day
immediately preceding the declaration date for such distribution.

Any increase made under this Section 14.04(b) shall be made successively whenever any such rights
or warrants are issued and shall become effective immediately prior to the open of business on the
Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. To the extent that Ordinary Shares are not delivered after
the expiration of such rights or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the
Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the increase made upon the distribution of such
rights or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of

68

 

Ordinary Shares actually delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be
decreased to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such record date for such
distribution had not occurred.

     For purposes of this Section 14.04(b), in determining whether any rights or warrants entitle
the holders to subscribe for or purchase Ordinary Shares at less than such average of the Closing
Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive Trading Day period ending on the Trading
Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for such issuance, and in determining the
aggregate offering price of such Ordinary Shares, there shall be taken into account any
consideration received by the Company for such rights or warrants and any amount payable on
exercise or conversion thereof, 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 or
other assets or property to all or substantially all holders of the Ordinary Share, excluding (i)
dividends, distributions, rights or warrants as to which an adjustment is required to be effected
pursuant to Section 14.04(a) or Section 14.04(b), (ii) dividends or distributions paid exclusively
in cash, and (iii) Spin-Offs as to which the provisions set forth below in this Section 14.04(c)
shall apply (any of such shares of Capital Stock, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or
property distributed, the “Distributed Property”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased
based on the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	SP0	 	 
	 

	 	CR1
	 	=
	 	CR0
	 	x
	 	 

	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	SP0 — FMV	 	 

where,

	 	 	 	 	 

	CR1

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

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of business on the Trading Day immediately preceding the
Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	SP0

	 	=
	 	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day
period ending on 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 Ordinary Shares as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such
distribution.

If the Board of Directors determines the “FMV” (as defined above) of any distribution for purposes
of this Section 14.04(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 Closing Sale Prices of the Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading Day period
ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if “FMV” (as defined above) is equal to or greater

69

 

than “SP0” (as defined above), or if the difference between “SP0” and “FMV” is
less than $1.00, in lieu of the foregoing increase, each Holder 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
Ordinary Shares receive the Distributed Property, the amount and kind of Distributed Property such
Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal to the
Conversion Rate in effect on the Ex-Dividend Date for the distribution.

     Any increase made under the portion of this Section 14.04(c) above shall become effective
immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such distribution. If such
distribution is not so paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to the Conversion Rate
that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

     With respect to an adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04(c) where there has been a payment
of a dividend or other distribution on the Ordinary Shares in 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 listed on a national or regional securities exchange (a “Spin-Off”), the
Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	FMV0 + MP0 	 	 
	 

	 	CR1
	 	=
	 	CR0
	 	x
	 	 

	 	 
	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	MP0	 	1

where,

	 	 	 	 	 

	CR1

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

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of
business on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	FMV0

	 	=
	 	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the
Capital Stock or similar equity interest
distributed to holders of the Ordinary Shares
applicable to one Ordinary Share over the first
10 consecutive Trading Day period immediately
following, and including,the third Trading Day after the Ex-Dividend Date for such Spin-Off (such
period, the “Valuation Period”); and
	 
	 	 	 	 
	MP0

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

The adjustment to the Conversion Rate under the preceding paragraph shall occur immediately after
the open of business on the day after the last day of the Valuation Period, but will be given
effect as of the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for the Spin-Off. The Company shall
delay the settlement of any Notes where the final Trading Day of the related Conversion Period
occurs during the Valuation Period. In such event, the Company shall pay cash and/or deliver any
Ordinary Shares due upon conversion (based on the adjusted Conversion Rate as described above) on
the third (in the case of cash) or the tenth (in the case of any Ordinary Shares) Business Day
immediately following the last day of the Valuation Period.

70

 

     For purposes of this Section 14.04(c) (and subject in all respects to Section 14.10), rights
or warrants distributed by the Company to all holders of its Ordinary Shares entitling the holders
thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s Capital Stock, including Ordinary
Shares (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights or warrants, until the
occurrence of a specified event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with
such Ordinary Shares; (ii) are not exercisable; and (iii) are also issued in respect of future
issuances of the Ordinary Shares, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of this
Section 14.04(c) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) will be
required) until the occurrence of the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights or warrants
shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment (if any is required) to the
Conversion Rate shall be made under this Section 14.04(c). If any such right or warrant, including
any such existing rights or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject
to events, upon the occurrence of which such rights or warrants become exercisable to purchase
different securities, evidences of indebtedness or other assets, then the date of the occurrence of
any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and Ex-Dividend Date with
respect to new rights or warrants with such rights (in which case the existing rights or warrants
shall be deemed to terminate and expire on such date without exercise by any of the holders
thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights or
warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the immediately preceding
sentence) with respect thereto that was counted for purposes of calculating a distribution amount
for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(c) was made, (1) in the
case of any such rights or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or purchased without exercise
by any holders thereof, upon such final redemption or purchase (x) the Conversion Rate shall be
readjusted as if such rights or warrants had not been issued and (y) the Conversion Rate shall then
again be readjusted to give effect to such distribution, deemed distribution or Trigger Event, as
the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or
purchase price received by a holder or holders of Ordinary Shares with respect to such rights or
warrants (assuming such holder had retained such rights or warrants), made to all holders of
Ordinary Shares as of the date of such redemption or purchase, and (2) in the case of such rights
or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the
Conversion Rate shall be readjusted as if such rights and warrants had not been issued.

     For purposes of Section 14.04(a), Section 14.04(b) and this Section 14.04(c), any dividend or
distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is applicable that also includes one or both of:

     (A) a dividend or distribution of Ordinary Shares to which Section 14.04(a) is applicable (the
"Clause A Distribution”); or

     (B) a dividend or distribution of rights or warrants to which Section 14.04(b) is applicable
(the “Clause B Distribution”),

then (1) such dividend or distribution, other than the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B
Distribution, shall be deemed to be a dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.04(c) is
applicable (the “Clause C Distribution”) and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by this
Section 14.04(c) with respect to such Clause C Distribution shall then be made, and (2) the

71

 

Clause A Distribution and Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to immediately follow the
Clause C Distribution and any Conversion Rate adjustment required by Section 14.04(a) and Section
14.04(b) with respect thereto shall then be made, except that, if determined by the Company (I) the
“Ex-Dividend Date” of the Clause A Distribution and the Clause B Distribution shall be deemed to be
the Ex-Dividend Date of the Clause C Distribution and (II) any Ordinary Shares included in the
Clause A Distribution or Clause B Distribution shall be deemed not to be “outstanding immediately
prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend Date or effective date” within the meaning of
Section 14.04(a) or “outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on such Ex-Dividend
Date” within the meaning of Section 14.04(b).

     (d) If any dividend or distribution exclusively in cash is made to all or substantially all
holders of the Ordinary Shares (other than dividends or distributions made in connection with the
Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding-up or upon a merger, consolidation or sale, lease,
transfer, conveyance or other disposition resulting in a change in the conversion consideration
pursuant to Section 14.06), the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	  	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	SP0

	 	=
	 	CR0

	 	SP0— C	 	 

	 	 	 	 	 

	where,
	 	 	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	 
	CR1

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

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of
business on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or
distribution;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	SP0

	 	=
	 	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the
Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading
Day period on the Trading Day immediately
preceding the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend
or distribution; and
	 
	 	 	 	 
	C

	 	=
	 	the amount in cash per Ordinary Share the Company
distributes to holders of its Ordinary Shares.

Any increase pursuant to this Section 14.04(d) shall become effective immediately prior to the open
of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if “C” (as defined above) is equal to or greater than “SP0” (as defined
above), or if the difference between “SP0” and “C” is less than $1.00, in lieu of the
foregoing increase, each Holder 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 Ordinary Shares, the amount of
cash that such Holder would have received as if such Holder owned a number of Ordinary Shares equal
to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such cash dividend or distribution. If such
dividend or distribution is not so paid, the Conversion Rate shall be decreased to be the
Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been
declared.

72

 

     (e) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or
exchange offer for the Ordinary Shares, to the extent that the cash and value of any other
consideration included in the payment per Ordinary Share exceeds the Closing Sale Price of the
Ordinary Shares 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:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 

	 

	 	CR1
	 	=
	 	CR0
	 	x	 	AC + ( SP1 x OS1 )
 

OS0 x SP1
	 	 

	 	 	 	 	 

	where,
	 	 	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	 
	CR1

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to
the open of business on the second Trading Day
next succeeding the date such tender or exchange
offer expires;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	CR0

	 	=
	 	the Conversion Rate in effect at the close of
business on the Trading Day immediately following
the date such tender offer 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 the Ordinary Shares
purchased in such tender or exchange offer;
	 
	 	 	 	 
	SP1

	 	=
	 	the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the
Ordinary Shares over the 10 consecutive Trading
Day period commencing on, and including, the
Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender
or exchange offer expires (the “Averaging
Period”).
	 
	 	 	 	 
	OS1

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding
immediately after the close of business on the
date such tender or exchange offer expires (after
giving effect to such tender offer or exchange
offer); and
	 
	 	 	 	 
	OS0

	 	=
	 	the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding
immediately prior to the date such tender or
exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to
such tender offer or exchange offer);

Any adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 14.04(e) shall occur immediately prior to
the open of business on the day following the last day of the Averaging Period, but will be given
effect as of the open of business on the second Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender
offer or exchange offer expires. The Company shall delay the settlement of any Notes where the
final Trading Day of the related Conversion Period occurs during the Averaging
Period. In such event, the Company shall pay cash and/or deliver any Ordinary Shares due upon
conversion (based on the adjusted Conversion Rate as described above) on the third (in the case of
cash) or the tenth (in the case of any Ordinary Shares) Business Day immediately following the last
day of the Averaging Period.

     (f) Notwithstanding this Section 14.04 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes,
if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on any Ex-Dividend Date, and a

73

 

Holder that has converted its Notes on or after such Ex-Dividend Date and on or prior to the related Record Date
would be treated as the record holder of the Ordinary Shares as of the related Conversion Date as
described under Section 14.02(i) based on an adjusted Conversion Rate for such Ex-Dividend Date,
then, notwithstanding the Conversion Rate adjustment provisions in this Section 14.04, the
Conversion Rate adjustment relating to such Ex-Dividend Date shall not be made for such converting
Holder. Instead, such Holder shall be treated as if such Holder were the record owner of the
Ordinary Shares on an unadjusted basis and participate in the related dividend, distribution or
other event giving rise to such adjustment. The term “Record Date” shall mean, with respect to any
dividend, distribution or other transaction or event in which the holders of Ordinary Shares (or
other security) have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which the
Ordinary Shares (or other applicable security) are exchanged for or converted into any combination
of cash, securities or other property, the date fixed for determination of shareholders entitled to
receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed by the Board of
Directors, by statute, by contract or otherwise).

     (g) Except as stated herein, the Company shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance
of its Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of its
Ordinary Shares or carrying the right to purchase its Ordinary Shares or such convertible or
exchangeable securities.

     (h) The Company shall not be required to make an adjustment in the Conversion Rate unless the
adjustment would require a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. However, the Company
shall carry forward any adjustment that is less than 1% of the Conversion Rate, take such
carried-forward adjustments into account in any subsequent adjustment, and make such carried
forward adjustments, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is less than 1%, (a) annually
on the anniversary of the first date of issue of the Notes and otherwise (b)(1) upon conversion of
any Notes or (2) prior to any Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, unless such adjustment has
already been made.

     (i) In addition to those adjustments required by clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of this
Section 14.04, 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, the Company may (but is not
required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of
Ordinary Shares or rights to purchase Ordinary Shares 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 such
Conversion Rate will be in effect.

     (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 14, the applicable Conversion
Rate shall not be adjusted:

74

 

     (i) upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares 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 Ordinary Shares under any plan;

     (ii) upon the issuance of any Ordinary Shares 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 issuance of any Ordinary Shares pursuant to any 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;

     (iv) for a change in the par value of the Ordinary Shares; or

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

     (k) All calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the
Company and shall be made to the nearest one-ten thousandth (1/10,000) of a share.

     (l) Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall (i)
promptly file with the Trustee (and the Conversion Agent if not the Trustee) an Officers’
Certificate setting forth the Conversion Rate after such adjustment and setting forth a brief
statement of the facts requiring such adjustment and (ii) issue a press release through Business
Wire containing the relevant information and make this information available on its website or
through another public medium as the Company may use at that time. Unless and until a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee and the
Conversion Agent 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.

     (m) For purposes of this Section 14.04, the number of Ordinary Shares at any time outstanding
shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company so long as the Company does not pay
any dividend or make any distribution on Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of the Company, but
shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of
Ordinary Shares.

     Section 14.05. Adjustments of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the
Company to calculate the Closing Sale Prices, the Volume Weighted Average Prices, the Share Price,
the Daily Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts over, or based on, a span of multiple
days (including a Conversion Period), the Company shall make appropriate adjustments to each to
account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective,

75

 

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 the Closing Sale Prices, the Volume Weighted Average Prices, the Daily
Conversion Values or the Daily Settlement Amounts are to be calculated.

     Section 14.06. Effect of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Ordinary
Shares.

     (a) If the Company:

     (i) reclassifies or changes the Ordinary Shares (other than changes resulting from a
subdivision or combination),

     (ii) consolidates or merges with or into any Person,

     (iii) sells, leases, transfers, conveys or otherwise disposes of all or substantially
all of the consolidated assets of the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries taken as a
whole to another Person, or

     (iv) is party to any statutory share exchange,

in each case, as a result of which holders of Ordinary Shares receive stock, other securities or
other property or assets (including cash or any combination thereof) with respect to or in exchange
for such Ordinary Shares(any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, from and after the effective date
of such Merger Event, each outstanding Note shall, without the consent of any Holders of the Notes,
upon the occurrence of any Merger Event and during the periods set forth in Section 14.01(b),
become convertible in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 14.02, except that the
Daily Conversion Value, the Daily Settlement Amount and the Volume Weighted Average Price shall be
based on the consideration the holders of Ordinary Shares received in such Merger Event (such
consideration, the “Reference Property”, with each “unit of Reference Property” meaning the kind
and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Share is entitled to receive). 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
Article 11 providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes;
provided, however, that from and after the effective time of the Merger Event (A) the Company shall
continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration to be paid or delivered, as the
case may be, upon conversion of Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 and (B) (I) any amount
payable in cash upon conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall continue to be
payable in cash, (II) any Ordinary Shares that the Company would have been required to deliver upon
conversion of the Notes in accordance with Section 14.02 shall instead be deliverable in the amount
and type of Reference Property that a holder of that number of Ordinary Shares would have been
entitled to receive in such Merger Event and (III) the Settlement Amount, the Daily Conversion Value, Daily
Settlement Amount and Volume Weighted Average Price shall be determined based on the value of a
unit of Reference Property that a holder of one Ordinary Share would have received in such Merger
Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 14.06, if the Reference Property
is comprised entirely of cash, the Volume Weighted Average Price shall

76

 

equal the price paid per Ordinary Share in such Merger Event and the Settlement Date shall be the third Trading Day
following the applicable Conversion Date.

     If the Merger Event causes the Ordinary Shares to be converted into the right to receive more
than a single type of consideration (determined based in part upon any form of shareholder
election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be convertible shall be deemed
to be the kind and amount of consideration elected to be received by a majority of the Ordinary
Shares voted for such an election (if electing between two types of consideration) or a plurality
of the Ordinary Shares voted for such an election (if electing between more than two types of
consideration), as the case may be, 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 Ordinary Share. 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 adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments
provided for in this Article 14. 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 to
the extent required by the Board of Directors and practicable the provisions providing for the
purchase rights set forth in Article 15.

     (b) In the event the Company shall execute a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section
14.06(a), the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent an Officers’
Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefore, the kind or amount of cash, securities or
property or assets that will comprise the 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 Company shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent
with this Section 14.06. None of the foregoing provisions shall affect the right of a holder of
Notes to convert its Notes into cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares,
as applicable, as set forth in Section 14.01 and Section 14.02 prior to the effective date of such
Merger Event.

     (d) The above provisions of this Section shall similarly apply to successive Merger Events.

77

 

     Section 14.07. Certain Covenants. (a) the Company covenants that all Ordinary Shares issued
upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and non-assessable by the Company, free from all taxes,
liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.

     (b) The Company covenants that, if any Ordinary Shares to be provided for the purpose of
conversion of Notes hereunder require registration with or approval of any governmental authority
under any federal or state law, or law of Spain or any political subdivision or territory thereof,
before such shares may be validly issued upon conversion, the Company will, to the extent then
permitted by the rules and interpretations of the Commission, secure such registration or approval,
as the case may be.

     (c) The Company further covenants that if at any time the Ordinary Shares shall be listed on
any national securities exchange or automated quotation system the Company will list and keep
listed, so long as the Ordinary Shares shall be so listed on such exchange or automated quotation
system, any Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

     Section 14.08. Responsibility of Trustee. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall not at
any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder, the Company or any other Person 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 or
with respect to calculations or determinations made in connection with the settlement procedures
for conversion of Notes. The Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with
respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Ordinary Shares, 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 the Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto.
Neither the Trustee nor the Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to
issue, transfer or deliver any Ordinary Shares 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 the Conversion Agent shall be
under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any
supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.06 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 14.06 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 relying upon, the Officers’ Certificate (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 14.01(b) has occurred that makes the Notes eligible for
conversion or no longer eligible therefor and shall not be deemed to have knowledge with respect to
such matters unless and until the Company has delivered to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent the notices referred to in
Section 14.01(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

78

 

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 14.01(b).

     Section 14.09. Notice to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:

     (a) action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the
Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section 14.10; or

     (b) Merger Event; or

     (c) voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries;

then, in each case (unless notice of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision
of this Indenture), the Company shall cause to be filed with the Trustee and the Conversion Agent
(if other than the Trustee) and to be mailed to each Holder at its address appearing on the Note
Register, as promptly as possible but in any event at least 20 days prior to the applicable date
hereinafter specified, a notice stating (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the
purpose of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries or, if a record is not to be
taken, the date as of which the holders of Ordinary Shares of record are to be determined for the
purposes of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) the date on which such
Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is expected to become effective or occur, and
the date as of which it is expected that holders of Ordinary Shares of record shall be entitled to
exchange their Ordinary Shares for securities or other property deliverable upon such Merger Event,
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall
not affect the legality or validity of such action by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries,
Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.

     Section 14.10. Shareholder Rights Plans. To the extent that the Company has a shareholders’
rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each Ordinary Share, if any, issued upon such
conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the
certificates representing the Ordinary Shares issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends,
if any, in each case as may be provided by the terms of any such shareholder 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 Ordinary Shares in accordance with the provisions of the applicable shareholder
rights plan so that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of Ordinary
Shares, 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 holders of Ordinary Shares, shares of
Capital Stock of the Company, evidences of indebtedness or assets as provided in Section 14.04(c),
subject to readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

     Section 14.11. Limit on Issuance of Shares of Ordinary Shares Upon Conversion.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, if an event occurs that would result in
an increase in the Conversion Rate by an amount in excess of limitations imposed by any
shareholder approval rules or listing standards of any national or regional securities exchange
that are applicable to the Company, the Company will, at its option, either obtain shareholder

79

 

approval of any issuance of Ordinary Shares upon conversion of the Notes in excess of such
limitations or deliver cash in lieu of any Ordinary Shares otherwise deliverable upon conversions
in excess of such limitations based on the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Ordinary Shares on
each Trading Day of the relevant Conversion Period in respect of which, in lieu of delivering
Ordinary Shares, the Company delivers cash pursuant to this Section 14.11.

ARTICLE 15

Repurchase of Notes Upon a Fundamental Change

     Section 15.01. Repurchase at Option of Holders upon a Fundamental Change. (a) If a
Fundamental Change occurs at any time prior to the Maturity Date, then each Holder shall have the
right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to purchase 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, not
previously called for Redemption on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”) specified
by the Company that is not less than 20 Business Days nor more than 35 Business Days following the
date of the Fundamental Change Company Notice at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”), unless the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date is after an Interest Record Date and on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to
which such Interest Record Date relates, in which case the Company shall instead pay the full
amount of accrued and unpaid interest on the Interest Payment Date to Holders of record as of the
preceding Interest 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 15.

     (b) Repurchases of Notes under this Section 15.01 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”) 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 prior to the close of business on 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:

80

 

     (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 15.01 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 Fundamental Change Repurchase Date by delivery of a written notice of
withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.02.

     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 fifth calendar day after the occurrence of the effective date of a
Fundamental Change, the Company shall provide to all Holders of Notes on the date of the
Fundamental Change at their addresses shown on the Note Register, beneficial owners to the extent
required by law, the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the
Trustee) a written notice (the “Fundamental Change Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the
effective date of the Fundamental Change and of the repurchase right at the option of the Holders
arising as a result thereof in accordance with Section 17.03. 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 15;

     (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 applicable Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the
applicable Conversion Rate;

81

 

     (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; and

     (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 15.01.

     At the Company’s request, 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 Company Notice shall be
prepared by the Company.

     None of the Trustee, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or Conversion Agent shall have
responsibility or liability for determining whether a Fundamental Change has occurred or with
respect to any other matters set forth above.

     (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Notes may be repurchased by the Company at the option of
the Holders upon a Fundamental Change if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated,
and such acceleration has not been rescinded, on or prior to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date
(except in the case of an acceleration resulting from a Default by the 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) and shall deem to be
cancelled any instructions for book-entry transfer of the Notes in compliance with the procedures
of the Depositary, in which case, 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 15.02. Withdrawal of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. A Fundamental Change
Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part) by means of a written notice of withdrawal
delivered to Paying Agent in accordance with this Section 15.02 at any time prior to the close of
business on 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 Notes in respect
of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted; and

     (iii) the principal amount, if any, of such Notes 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;

82

 

provided, however, that if the Notes are Global Notes, the notice must comply with appropriate
procedures of the Depositary.

     Section 15.03. 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) prior to
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day prior to 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 15.01) 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 15.01
either by mailing checks or by wire transfer of immediately available Funds 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 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.

     (b) If by 10:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Business Day prior to the Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date, the Paying Agent 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
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 and previously accrued but unpaid
interest upon delivery or transfer of the Notes).

     (c) Upon surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 15.01, 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 15.04. 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 and any other tender offer rules under the
Exchange Act applicable at the time of the offer to repurchase the Notes;

     (b) file a Schedule TO or any successor or similar schedule in connection with any offer by
the Company to repurchase the Notes; and

83

 

     (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 15 to be exercised in
the time and in the manner specified in this Article 15.

ARTICLE 16

Redemption for Taxation Reasons

     Section 16.01. Redemption for Taxation Reasons. (a) If:

     (i) in relation to the Notes, (A) as a result of any change in the laws or regulations
of Spain or any political subdivision or territory or possession thereof or any authority or
agency therein or thereof having power to tax which becomes effective, or a change in the
application or interpretation of any such laws or regulations, or the issuance of a tax
ruling or action taken by the Spanish tax authorities applying or interpreting such laws or
regulations, which is announced, in each case on or after the original date of issuance of
the Notes, the Company is or would be required to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to
Section 4.10 and (B) such circumstances are evidenced by the delivery by the Company to the
Trustee and the Paying Agent of an Officers’ Certificate, as the case may be, stating that
such circumstances prevail and describing the facts leading to such circumstances, together
with an opinion of independent legal advisers of recognized standing to the effect that such
circumstances prevail; or

     (ii) the Notes are not listed on an organized market in an Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development country by August 16, 2010;

then, in each case, the Company may, at its option, redeem (a “Redemption”) for cash all, but not
less than all, of the outstanding Notes, upon notice as set forth in Section 16.02, at a price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid

Date and the Redemption Price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed.

     (b) Notes that are tendered for conversion following a Redemption Notice shall be entitled to
an increased Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.03.

     (c) In the event of a Redemption of any Notes, the Company will be required to withhold tax

     Section 16.02. Notice of Redemption.

84

 

     (a) In case the Company exercises its Redemption right to redeem all, but not less than all,
of the Notes pursuant to Section 16.01, it shall fix a date for redemption (the “Redemption Date”)
and it or, at its written request received by the Trustee not less than 55 Business Days prior to
the Redemption Date (or such shorter period of time as may be acceptable to the Trustee), the
Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Company, shall mail or cause to be mailed a
notice of such Redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) at least 35 Business Days prior to the
Redemption Date nor more than 150 calendar days prior to the date on which the Company would be
obligated to pay the Additional Amounts as set forth in Section 4.10 were a payment in respect of
the Notes then due to each Holder of Notes so to be redeemed at such Holder’s last address as the
same appears on the Note Register; provided, however, that if the Company shall give such notice,
it shall also give written notice of the Redemption Date to the Trustee.

     (b) The Redemption Notice, if mailed in the manner herein provided, shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice, and the date of
such mailing shall be the effective date for such Redemption. In any case, failure to give such
Redemption Notice by mail or any defect in the Redemption Notice to the Holder of any Note
designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings
for the redemption of any other Note.

     (c) Each Redemption Notice shall specify:

     (i) the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day);

     (ii) the Redemption Price;

upon each such Note, and that interest thereon, if any, shall cease to accrue on and after
said date;

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

     (v) that Holders may surrender their Notes for conversion at any time prior to the

Settlement Method and Specified Cash Amount, if applicable;

     (vii) the Conversion Rate and, if applicable, the number of Additional Shares added to
the Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 14.03; and

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

A Redemption Notice shall be revocable.

     Section 16.03. Payment of Notes Called for Redemption.

85

 

     (a) If any Redemption Notice has been given in respect of the Notes in accordance with
Section 16.02, the Notes shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the place or places
stated in the Redemption Notice and at the applicable Redemption Price. On presentation and
surrender of the Notes at the place or places stated in the Redemption Notice, the Notes shall be
paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price.

     (b) Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day prior to the Redemption Date,
the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or, if the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company
is acting as the Paying Agent, shall segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 7.05 an
amount of cash (in immediately available funds if deposited on the Redemption Date), sufficient to
pay the Redemption Price of all of the Notes to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. Subject to
receipt of funds by the Paying Agent, payment for the Notes to be redeemed shall be made promptly
after the later of:

     (i) the Redemption Date for such Notes; and

     (ii) the time of presentation of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent
appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by this Section
16.03.

The Paying Agent shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return
to the Company any funds in excess of the Redemption Price.

     Section 16.04. Restrictions on Redemption. The Company may not redeem any Notes on any date
if the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture, and such acceleration has not been rescinded on or prior to the Redemption Date

jurisdiction.

     Section 17.09. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed
or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, Conversion
Agent, Bid Solicitation Agent, Custodian, authenticating agent, Note Registrar and their successors

headings of the articles and sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of
reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any
of the terms or provisions hereof.

     Section 17.11. 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 15.03 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 7.08.

     Any corporation or other entity into which the authenticating agent may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or other entity resulting from

89

 

any merger, consolidation or conversion to which the authenticating agent shall be a party, or
any corporation or other entity succeeding to the corporate trust business of the 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.

     The 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 the 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 the
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 compensation for its
services although the Company may terminate the authenticating agent, if it determines such agent’s
fees to be unreasonable.

     The provisions of Section 7.02, Section 7.03, Section 7.04, Section 8.03 and this Section
17.11 shall be applicable to the authenticating agent.

     If an authenticating agent is appointed pursuant to this Section, the Notes may have endorsed
thereon, in lieu of 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

     Section 17.12. 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 transmitted by facsimile or PDF shall be deemed to be their
original signatures for all purposes.

     Section 17.13. 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 17.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES OR THE TRANSACTION
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

     Section 17.15. Jurisdiction. The courts of the State of New York or of the United States of
America for the Southern District of New York shall have jurisdiction to settle any disputes which
may arise out of or in connection with the Notes and accordingly any legal action or proceedings
arising out of or in connection with the Notes (“Proceedings”) may be brought in such courts. The
Company irrevocably agrees to submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waive any
objection to Proceedings in such courts whether on the ground of venue or on the ground that the
Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum. This submission is made for the benefit of
each of the Holders and shall not limit the right of any of them to take Proceedings in any other
court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of Proceedings in one or more jurisdictions
preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not).

     Section 17.16. Agent for Service Of Process. The Company has appointed CT Corporation System
at its registered office for the time being, currently at 111 Eighth Avenue, New York, New York
10011, United States, as its agent in the State of New York to receive service of process in any
Proceedings in New York. If for any reason the Company does not have such an agent in the State of
New York, it will promptly appoint a substitute process agent and notify the Holders of such
appointment. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted
by law.

     Section 17.17. 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 17.18. Calculations. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company shall be
responsible for making all calculations called for under or in connection with the Notes and this
Indenture. These calculations include, but are not limited to, determinations of the Closing Sale
Prices of the Ordinary Shares, accrued interest payable on the Notes, the Conversion Rate and the
Conversion Price of the Notes. The Company or its agents shall make all these calculations in good
faith and, absent manifest error, such calculations shall be final and binding on Holders of Notes.
The Company shall provide a schedule of its calculations to each of the Trustee, the Conversion
Agent and the Paying Agent, and each of the Trustee, the Conversion Agent and the Paying 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 of Notes upon the
request of that Holder at the sole cost and expense of the Company.

under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received hereby promises to pay
to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum as set forth in the “Schedule of Exchanges
of Notes” attached hereto, which amount, taken together with the principal amounts of all other

Depositary, on April 15, 2015, and interest thereon as set forth below.

     This Note shall bear interest at the rate of 5.50% per year from April 19, 2010 or from the
most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for to, but excluding, the next
scheduled Interest Payment Date until April 15, 2015. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears

Interest or Additional Amounts in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding
Additional Interest or Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is
not made.

     Any Defaulted Amounts shall accrue interest per annum at the rate borne by the Notes plus one
percent, subject to the enforceability thereof under applicable law, from, and including, the
relevant payment date to, but excluding, the date on which such Defaulted Amounts shall have been
paid by the Company, at its election, in accordance with Section 2.03(c) of the Indenture.

be, as the registered Holder of such Note. As provided in and subject to the provisions of
the Indenture, the Company shall pay the principal of any Notes (other than Notes that are Global

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

TELVENT GIT, S.A.

5.50% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2015

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 5.50%
Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”), limited to the aggregate principal
amount of $200,000,000 all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of
April 19, 2010 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, BNY Corporate Trustee Services Limited, as
trustee (the “Trustee”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as note registrar, paying agent and
conversion agent (the “Note Registrar”, “Paying Agent” and “Conversion Agent”), 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.

     In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, 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 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, Redemption Price and the
principal amount on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, Redemption Date and Maturity Date, as
the case may be, to the Holder who surrenders a Note to the 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 the
principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and the Redemption Price, if
applicable) of and accrued and unpaid interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times,
at the rate and in the lawful money herein prescribed.

A-6

 

     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.

     Upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, all but not less than all
of the Notes shall be redeemable at the Company’s option in accordance with the terms specified in
the Indenture.

     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 such Holder’s
option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence of certain conditions specified in the
Indenture, prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity
Date, to convert any Notes or portion thereof that is $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof, into
cash, Ordinary Shares or a combination of cash and Ordinary Shares, as applicable, 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.

EXHIBIT B

SPANISH WITHHOLDING TAX DOCUMENTATION PROCEDURES FOR NOTES HELD

THROUGH AN ACCOUNT AT DTC

Article I 

Immediate Refund Procedure (procedure that complies with Spanish Law 13/1985 (as amended by Law 19/2003, Law 23/2005 and Law 4/2008), Royal Decree 1065/2007 and Section 59(s)) of the Corporate Income Tax Regulation approved by Royal Decree 1777/2004, of July 30, 2004

A. DTC Participant Submission and Maintenance of Beneficial Owner Information

	1.	 	At least five Business Days prior to each record date preceding an interest payment date on
the Notes, (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), we shall provide an issuer announcement to the
paying agent, and the paying agent shall (a) provide The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) with
such issuer announcement that will form the basis for a DTC important notice (the “Important
Notice”) regarding the relevant interest payment and tax relief entitlement information for
the Notes and (b) request DTC to post such Important Notice on its website as a means of
notifying direct participants of DTC (“DTC Participants”) of the requirements described in
this Annex A and Annex B. A “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a
day on which banking institutions or trust companies in New York City are required or
authorized by law, regulation or executive order to close.
	 
	2.	 	Beginning on the Business Day following each record date and continuing until 8:00 p.m. New
York City time on the fourth Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date (the “Standard
Deadline”), each DTC Participant that is a Qualified Institution must (i) enter directly into
the designated system established and maintained by Acupay (the “Acupay System”) the
beneficial owner identity and country of tax residence information required by Spanish tax law
(as set forth in Article I of Annex B) in respect of the portion of such DTC Participant’s
position in the Notes that is exempt from Spanish withholding tax (the “Beneficial Owner
Information”) and (ii) make an election via the DTC Elective Dividend Service (“EDS”)
certifying that such portion of Notes for which it submitted such Beneficial Owner Information
is exempt from Spanish withholding tax (the “EDS Election”).
	 
	3.	 	Each DTC Participant must ensure the continuing accuracy of the Beneficial Owner Information
and EDS Election, irrespective of any changes in, or in beneficial ownership of, such DTC
Participant’s position in the Notes through 8:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day
immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date by making adjustments through the Acupay
System and EDS. All changes must be reflected, including those changes (via Acupay) which do
not impact the DTC Participant’s overall position at DTC or the portion of that position at
DTC as to which no Spanish withholding tax is being assessed.

B. Tax Certificate Production and Execution

After entry of Beneficial Owner Information into the Acupay System by a DTC Participant, the Acupay
System will produce completed forms of Exhibit I, Exhibit II or Exhibit III to Annex B (as required
by Spanish law) (the “Interest Payment Tax Certificates”), which shall summarize the Beneficial
Owner Information introduced and maintained by such DTC Participant into the Acupay System. When
any Interest Payment Date is also the Maturity Date or a redemption date for the Notes, and if the
Notes were initially issued below par with an original issue discount (“OID”), a separate set of
Tax Certificates (the “OID Tax Certificates,” and together with the Interest Payment Tax
Certificates, the “Tax Certificates”) will be generated by the Acupay System reporting income
resulting from the payment of OID at the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption date. Such DTC
Participant will then be required to (i) print out, (ii) review, (iii) sign and (iv) fax or send by
email a PDF copy of the duly signed Tax Certificates directly to Acupay for receipt by the close of
business on the Standard Deadline. The original of each Tax Certificate must be sent to Acupay for
receipt no later than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately following the Interest Payment
Date. All Tax Certificates will be dated as of the relevant Interest Payment Date.

NOTE: A DTC Participant that obtains favorable tax treatment through this Immediate Refund
Procedure and fails to submit to Acupay the original physical Tax Certificates as described above
may be prohibited by us from using this procedure to obtain favorable tax treatment with respect to
future payments. In such event, the DTC Participant will receive the interest

A-1

 

payment on its entire position net of the applicable Spanish withholding tax (currently
19%) and relief will need to be obtained directly from the Spanish tax authorities by following the
direct refund procedure established by Spanish tax law.

C. Additional Acupay and DTC Procedures

In addition to its other duties and obligations set forth herein, Acupay will be responsible for
the following tasks (collectively, the “Acupay Verification Procedures”):

	 	(a)	 	comparing the Beneficial Owner Information and Tax Certificates provided in respect of
each DTC Participant’s position with the EDS Elections provided by that DTC Participant in
order to determine whether any discrepancies exist between such information, the
corresponding EDS Elections and the DTC Participant’s position in the Notes at DTC;
	 
	 	(b)	 	collecting and collating all Tax Certificates received from DTC Participants;
	 
	 	(c)	 	reviewing the Beneficial Owner Information and the Tax Certificates using appropriate
methodology in order to determine whether the requisite fields of Beneficial Owner
Information have been supplied and that such fields of information are responsive to the
requirements of such Tax Certificates in order to receive payments without Spanish
withholding tax being assessed; and
	 
	 	(d)	 	liaising with the DTC Participants in order to request that such DTC Participants:

	 	(i)	 	complete any missing or correct any erroneous Beneficial Owner Information
identified pursuant to the procedures set forth in (a) and (c) above,
	 
	 	(ii)	 	correct any erroneous EDS Election identified pursuant to the procedures set
forth in (a) and (c) above, and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	revise any Tax Certificates identified pursuant to the procedures set
forth in (a) and (c) above as containing incomplete or inaccurate information.

D. Updating and Verification of Beneficial Owner Information

	1.	 	By 9:30 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day following the Standard Deadline, DTC will
transmit to Acupay an “EDS Standard Cut-off Report” confirming DTC Participant positions and
EDS Elections as of the Standard Deadline. By 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business
Day following the Standard Deadline, Acupay will transmit to DTC a provisional summary report
of all Beneficial Owner Information which has been submitted through the Acupay System as of
the Standard Deadline, provisionally confirmed, to the extent possible, against the
information set forth in the EDS Standard Cut-off Report. The provisional summary report shall
set forth (i) the position in the Notes held by each DTC Participant as of the Standard
Deadline and (ii) the portion of each DTC Participant’s position in the Notes in respect of
which Tax Certificates have been provided to support the payment of interest without Spanish
withholding tax being assessed.
	 
	2.	 	DTC Participants will be required to ensure that Beneficial Owner Information entered into
the Acupay System and the EDS Elections are updated to reflect any changes in beneficial
ownership or in such DTC Participants’ positions in the Notes occurring between the Standard
Deadline and 8:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Interest Payment Date. For this purpose, the DTC EDS system will remain accessible to DTC
Participants until 8:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding the
Interest Payment Date. In addition, Acupay will accept new or amended Beneficial Owner
Information prior to 9:45 a.m. New York City time and DTC will accept requests for changes to
EDS Elections at the request of DTC Participants until 9:45 a.m. New York City time on each
Interest Payment Date.
	 
	3.	 	Beginning at 7:45 a.m. New York City time on the Interest Payment Date, Acupay will through
the Acupay Verification Procedures (as defined above) perform the final review of each DTC
Participant’s Beneficial Owner Information, EDS Elections and changes in DTC position since
the Standard Deadline. Based on these Acupay Verification Procedures, Acupay will (i) seek to
notify any affected DTC Participant until 9:45 a.m. New York City time on such Interest
Payment Date of any inconsistencies among these data, or erroneous or incomplete information
provided by such DTC Participant and (ii) use its best efforts to obtain revised Beneficial
Owner Information, Tax Certificates (as defined above) and/or EDS Elections from any such DTC
Participant as necessary to correct any inconsistencies or erroneous or incomplete
information. The failure to correct any such inconsistencies (including the failure to fax or
send PDF copies of new or amended Tax Certificates) by 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the
Interest Payment Date (or if Acupay, despite its best efforts to do so, does not confirm
receipt of such correction by 9:45 a.m.

A-2

 

	 	 	New York City time on the Interest Payment Date) will result in the payments in respect of the
entirety of such DTC Participant’s position being made net of Spanish withholding tax. Upon
receipt of a report of EDS Elections as of 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the Interest Payment
Date from DTC, Acupay will then notify DTC of the final determination of which portion of each
DTC Participant’s position in the Notes should be paid gross of Spanish withholding tax and
which portion of such position should be paid net of such tax. Based on such Acupay
determination, DTC will make adjustments to the EDS in order to reduce to zero the EDS Elections
received by DTC from DTC Participants as of 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the relevant
Interest Payment Date, where as a result of any inconsistencies between such DTC Participant’s
Beneficial Owner Information, EDS Election and DTC position, the entirety of such DTC
Participant position will be paid net of Spanish withholding taxes.
	 
	 	 	The adjustments described in the preceding paragraph will be made by DTC exclusively for the
purposes of making payments, when applicable, net of Spanish withholding taxes and will have no
impact on the EDS Election made by the relevant DTC Participants as of 9:45 a.m. New York City
time on the relevant Interest Payment Date.
	 
	4.	 	DTC will transmit a final “Report to Paying Agent” to Acupay by 10:30 a.m. New York City
time on each Interest Payment Date setting forth each DTC Participant’s position in the
Notes as of 8:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding each
Interest Payment Date and the portion of each such DTC Participant’s position in the Notes
on which interest payments should be made net of Spanish withholding tax and the portion on
which interest payments should be made without Spanish withholding tax being assessed, as
applicable, based on the status of the EDS Elections received by DTC for each DTC
Participant as of 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the Interest Payment Date and reflecting
the adjustments, if any, to be made by DTC to the EDS described in paragraph D.3 above of
this Article I of Annex A.
	 
	 	 	Acupay shall immediately, but no later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each Interest
Payment Date, release (through a secure data upload/download facility) PDF copies of the final
Report to Paying Agent to us and the paying agent along with PDF copies of the related signed
Tax Certificates to us.
	 
	 	 	Acupay will forward original paper Tax Certificates it receives to us no later than the 18th
calendar day of the month immediately following each Interest Payment Date. Acupay shall
maintain records of all Tax Certificates (and other information received through the Acupay
System) for the longer of (x) five years from the date of delivery thereof or (y) five years
following the final maturity or redemption of the Notes, and shall, during such period, make
copies of such records available to us at all reasonable times upon request. In the event that
we notify Acupay in writing that we are the subject of a tax audit, Acupay shall maintain such
duplicate back-up copies until the relevant statute of limitations applicable to any tax year
subject to audit expires.

E. Interest Payments

	1.	 	On or prior to each Interest Payment Date, we will transmit to the paying agent an amount of
funds sufficient to make interest payments on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes
without Spanish withholding tax being assessed.
	 
	2.	 	By 1:00 p.m. New York City time on each Interest Payment Date, the paying agent will (i) pay
the relevant DTC Participants (through DTC) for the benefit of the relevant beneficial owners
the interest payment gross or net of Spanish withholding tax, as set forth in the final Report
to Paying Agent, and (ii) promptly return the remainder of the funds to us. The transmission
of such amounts shall be contemporaneously confirmed by the paying agent to Acupay. We have
authorized the paying agent to rely on the final Report to Paying Agent in order to make the
specified payments on each Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, we may direct the paying agent to make interest payments on the Notes in a manner
different from that set forth in the final Report to Paying Agent if we (i) determine that
there are any inconsistencies with the Tax Certificates provided or any information set forth
therein is, to our knowledge, inaccurate and (ii) provides notice of such determination in
writing to DTC, Acupay and the paying agent prior to 11:30 a.m. New York City time on the
relevant Interest Payment Date along with a list of the affected DTC Participants showing the
amounts to be paid to each such DTC Participant.

Article II 

Quick Refund Procedures

A. Documentation Procedures

     1. Beneficial Owners holding through a Qualified Institution that is a DTC Participant

A-3

 

	 	a.	 	Beginning at 9:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day following each Interest
Payment Date until 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the tenth calendar day of the month
following the relevant Interest Payment Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the
first Business Day immediately preceding such day) (the “Quick Refund Deadline”), a DTC
Participant (i) which is a Qualified Institution (as defined in Article I of Annex B),
(ii) holds Notes on behalf of beneficial owners entitled to exemption from Spanish
withholding tax and (iii) which was paid net of Spanish withholding taxes due to a failure
to comply with the “Immediate Refund Procedure” set forth in Article I of Annex A above,
may submit through the Acupay System new or amended Beneficial Owner Information with
respect to such beneficial owners’ holdings.
	 
	 	b.	 	After entry of Beneficial Owner Information into the Acupay System by such DTC
Participant, the Acupay System will produce completed Tax Certificates. Such DTC
Participant will then be required to (i) print out, (ii) review, (iii) sign and (iv) fax
or send by email a PDF copy of the duly signed Tax Certificate directly to Acupay for
receipt by Acupay no later than the Quick Refund Deadline. Any such Tax Certificates will
be dated as of the Interest Payment Date. The original Tax Certificate must be sent to
Acupay for receipt no later than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately following
the relevant Interest Payment Date.
	 
	 	c.	 	Acupay will then conduct the Acupay Verification Procedures with respect to the
Beneficial Owner Information submitted by the DTC Participants pursuant to paragraph A.1.a
of this Article II of Annex A above by comparing such Beneficial Owner Information with
the amount of Notes entitled to receipt of income on the Interest Payment Date as reported
to Acupay by (i) the paying agent, (ii) DTC as having been held in such DTC Participant’s
account and (iii) as established by DTC EDS Elections. Until the Quick Refund Deadline,
DTC Participants may revise or resubmit Beneficial Owner Information in order to cure any
inconsistency identified.
	 
	 	d.	 	Acupay will collect payment instructions from DTC Participants or their designees
and, no later than 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the third calendar day following the
Quick Refund Deadline (or if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day
immediately preceding such day), will forward PDF copies of the verified Tax Certificates
to us and the payment instructions to us and the paying agent.

     2. Beneficial Owners holding through a DTC Participant that is not a Qualified Institution

a. Beneficial owners entitled to receive interest payments or OID income in respect of any Notes
gross of any Spanish withholding taxes but who have been paid net of Spanish withholding taxes as a
result of holding interests in such Notes through DTC Participants who are not Qualified
Institutions will be entitled to utilize the Quick Refund Procedures set forth below.

b. Such beneficial owners may request from us the reimbursement of the amount withheld by providing
Acupay, as our agent, with (i) documentation to confirm their securities entitlement in respect of
the Notes on the relevant Interest Payment Date (which documentation must include statements from
(A) DTC and (B) the relevant DTC Participant setting forth such DTC Participant’s aggregate DTC
position on such Interest Payment Date as well as the portion of such position that was paid net
and gross of Spanish withholding taxes, together with an accounting record of the amounts of such
position and payments which were attributable to the beneficial owner) and (ii) a certificate of
tax residency issued by the tax authorities of the country of residence of such beneficial owner (a
“Government Tax Residency Certificate”). Such Government Tax Residency Certificate (which will be
valid for a period of one year after its date of issuance) together with the information regarding
the securities entitlement in respect of the Notes must be submitted to Acupay, acting on our
behalf, no later than the Quick Refund Deadline. Acupay will collect payment instructions from DTC
Participants or their designees, as the case may be, and, no later than 12:00 p.m. New York City
time on the third calendar day following the Quick Refund Deadline (or if such day is not a
Business Day, the first Business Day immediately preceding such day), will forward to us PDF copies
and originals of the Government Tax Residency Certificates, and to us and the paying agent (x) the
related payment instructions and (y) a reconciliation of such payment instructions to (1) the
outstanding principal amount of Notes owned through each DTC Participant as of the relevant
Interest Payment Date and (2) the outstanding principal amount of such Notes on which interest was
paid net of Spanish withholding tax on the relevant Interest Payment Date.

3. Early Redemption of the Notes

     In the case of early redemption, Quick Refund Procedures substantially similar to those
procedures set forth in this Article II of Annex A will be made available to beneficial owners.
Detailed descriptions of such Quick Refund Procedures will be available upon request from Acupay
in the event of such early redemption.

B. Payment Procedures

A-4

 

	1.	 	Upon receipt of the relevant Tax Certificates and Government Tax Residency Certificates
together with related documentation (if any) from Acupay pursuant to the procedures in
paragraph A. of this Article II, we will review Government Tax Residency Certificates together
with related documentation (if any) and confirm the related payments no later than the 18th
calendar day of the month following the relevant Interest Payment Date (or if such day is not
a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately preceding such day).
	 
	2.	 	On the 19th calendar day of the month following the relevant Interest Payment Date (or if
such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately preceding such day), we
will make payments equal to the amounts initially withheld from DTC Participants complying
with the Quick Refund Procedure to the paying agent and the paying agent shall, within one
Business Day of such date, transfer such payments to DTC Participants directly for the benefit
of beneficial owners.

Article III

Immediate Refund Procedure
(procedure that complies with Spanish Law 13/1985 

(as amended by Law 19/2003, Law 23/2005 and Law 4/2008),
Royal Decree 1065/2007 and Section 59(s)) of the Corporate 

Income Tax Regulation approved by Royal Decree 1777/2004, of
July 30, 2004 and Tax Reporting Compliance Procedure for Conversions of the Notes

	A.	 	DTC Participant Submission and Maintenance of Beneficial Owner Tax Information and
Beneficial Owner Conversion Information

          1. In accordance with, and at the times laid out in the provisions of the Notes, beneficial
owners may request the broker, bank or other nominee holding their Notes through DTC to deliver
elections to convert the Notes. Such elections must be submitted by the relevant DTC Participant
through the appropriate electronic facilities of DTC (the “DTC Reorganization System”) on a day
that such facilities are operational.

          2. Upon its receipt from a beneficial owner of a request to deliver a conversion election for
the Notes, a DTC Participant must:

	 	•	 	at the time that will be announced in the relevant procedure notices, transmit
via the DTC Reorganization System an instruction to convert Notes in an amount
equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes for which instructions to
take such action have been received by such DTC Participant from the relevant
beneficial owner thereof and not previously entered into the DTC Reorganization
System (each such election, a “DTC Conversion Instruction”).

Each DTC Conversion Instruction should represent a conversion election for a single
beneficial owner. While a DTC Participant is permitted to submit more than one DTC
Conversion Instruction for a single beneficial owner, no more than one beneficial
owner may be represented by a single DTC Conversion Instruction.

	 	•	 	by 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the second Business Day prior to the
scheduled settlement date of the conversion (the “Conversion Settlement Date”),
each DTC Participant that is a Qualified Institution must enter directly into the
Acupay System:

(a) the beneficial owner identity and country of tax residence information
required by Spanish tax law as set forth in Article I of Annex B (the
“Beneficial Owner Tax Information”) and which has not previously been entered
into the Acupay System;

(b) a breakdown of the DTC Conversion Instructions, indicating the identity of
the relevant beneficial owners as well as the amount of Notes per instruction
and for whom DTC Conversion Instructions have been submitted via the DTC
Reorganization System (the “Beneficial Owner Conversion Information”) and which
have not previously been entered into the Acupay System; and

(c) the DTC voluntary instruction confirmation number associated with each
relevant DTC Conversion Instruction.

A-5

 

          3. Notwithstanding the submission of the Beneficial Owner Tax Information and the Beneficial
Owner Conversion Information pursuant to paragraph A.2 of this Article III of Annex A above and the
submission of DTC Conversion Instructions through the DTC Reorganization System, each DTC
Participant must also ensure, irrespective of any changes in, or beneficial ownership of, such DTC
Participant’s position in the Notes, the continuing accuracy of the Beneficial Owner Tax
Information, through 9:45 a.m. New York City time on each relevant Conversion Settlement Date, or
on each interest payment date that is related to any of the four events described in paragraph
B.1.(b) of this Article III of Annex A below (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), as relevant, by
making appropriate entries or requests for manual entries or adjustments, as the case may be,
through the Acupay System. All changes in beneficial ownership must be reflected, including those
changes (via Acupay) which do not impact the DTC Participant’s overall position at DTC for which
DTC Conversion Instructions have been submitted, or the portion of that position at DTC as to which
no Spanish withholding tax is required.

          4. DTC shall promptly deliver conversion requests (each such request a “Conversion Notice”) to
us through the facilities of Acupay. The Business Day when Acupay receives each Conversion Notice
from DTC shall be deemed a “Conversion Date” with respect to the relevant quantity of Notes and
Shares.

	B.	 	Tax Certification Production and Execution

          1. After entry of Beneficial Owner Tax Information and Beneficial Owner Conversion Information
into the Acupay System by a DTC Participant, the Acupay System will:

(a) produce completed forms of Exhibit IV-A or Exhibit IV-B to Annex B (as required by
Spanish law) (the “Conversion Tax Certificates”), which shall summarize the Beneficial
Owner Tax Information and the Beneficial Owner Conversion Information submitted by
such DTC Participant into the Acupay System for the aggregate principal amount of
Notes as to which tax relief, or compliance with the relevant tax reporting
requirements, as the case may be, is sought and the income, if any, that is ascribed
to the conversion operation. The amount of income that will be printed on the
certificates will be computed by the Acupay System generally utilizing, in the case of
cash settlement and combination settlement (but in this latter case only with respect
to the amount of cash delivered to the converting holders), the volume weighted
average price per share for the third Business Day prior to the Conversion Settlement
Date (as explained in more detail in paragraph C of this Article III of Annex A
below).

(b) When any conversion occurs in relation to the following four events and with
respect to events (ii) through (iv) below when Acupay receives timely notice of such
event from us, the Acupay System will also produce an additional set of tax
certificates (the “Interest Tax Certificates”) relating to the interest income to be
received from a coupon payment:

	 	(i)	 	if the beneficial owner converts its Notes following the
regular record date immediately preceding the maturity date;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	if the beneficial owner converts its Notes in connection with
a fundamental change and we have specified a repurchase date in connection
therewith that is after a record date and on or prior to the corresponding
interest payment date;
	 
	 	(iii)	 	if we have specified a redemption date that is after a
record date and on or prior to the corresponding interest payment date, and
the Note is surrendered for conversion after the close of business on such
record date and on or before the open of business on such interest payment
date; or
	 
	 	(iv)	 	to the extent of any overdue interest, if overdue interest
exists at the time of conversion with respect to the Notes.

          2. Interest Tax Certificates and Conversion Tax Certificates are collectively referred to
herein as “Tax Certificates”.

          3. Each DTC Participant will then be required to (i) print out, (ii) review, (iii) sign and
(iv) fax or send by email a PDF copy of each duly signed Tax Certificate directly to Acupay for
receipt by 5:30 p.m. New York City time on the second Business Day prior to the Conversion
Settlement Date. The original of each Tax Certificate must be sent to Acupay for receipt no later
than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately following the Conversion Settlement Date or
Interest Payment Date. These Tax Certificates will be dated as of the Conversion Settlement Date or
the Interest Payment Date, as applicable.

A-6

 

          NOTE: A DTC Participant that obtains favorable tax treatment through this procedure and fails
to submit to Acupay the original physical Tax Certificates as described above may be prohibited by
us from using this procedure to obtain favorable tax treatment for future conversions or interest
payments for Notes which have not been converted. In such event, the DTC Participant, as the case
may be, (i) will receive any future interest payment or conversion consideration (in respect of
cash settlement conversions or combination settlement conversions, but in this latter case only
with respect to the amount of cash delivered to the converting holders) on its entire
position of remaining non-converted Notes net of the applicable Spanish withholding tax
(currently 19%) and relief will need to be obtained directly from the Spanish tax authorities by
following the direct refund procedure established by Spanish tax law as described in Article II of
Annex B, or (ii) will have to comply with certain separate formalities with the Spanish tax
authorities with respect to the reporting of positive income upon conversion of its Notes (in the
case of physical settlement or combination settlement, but in this latter case only with respect to
the ordinary shares delivered to the converting holders).

	C.	 	Conversion Tax Calculations and Tax Certificates

          1. As the conversion of Notes may be a taxable event under Spanish tax law and for the
purposes of Spanish Law 13/1985 (as amended by Law 19/2003, Law 23/2005 and Law 4/2008), the income
(if any) attributable to each such conversion will be calculated by Acupay using the following
methodology:

	 	(a)	 	Acupay will examine our notice of election of
settlement method (if any such notice has been sent) to determine the type
of settlement method which has been selected by us. Such settlement method
may be one of the following:

	 	i.	 	Payment or delivery of
cash (i.e. “cash settlement”) or
	 
	 	ii.	 	Payment or delivery of
our ordinary shares (i.e., “physical settlement”).
	 
	 	iii.	 	Payment or delivery of
a combination of cash and ordinary shares of the company
(i.e. “combination settlement”).

	 	(b)	 	The amount of cash to be paid by us and/or the number
of our ordinary shares to be delivered upon conversion (the “Settlement
Amount”) will be computed by us and reported on a notice given by us to
Acupay and the conversion agent prior to 8:00 a.m. New York City time on
the second Business Day prior to the Conversion Settlement Date (the
“Issuer’s Notice of Settlement”). The amounts indicated on such notice are
to be computed as follows:

	 	i.	 	if we elect physical
settlement, we will deliver to the converting holder a
number of our ordinary shares equal to the product of (1)
the aggregate principal amount of Notes to be converted,
divided by $1,000, and (2) the applicable conversion rate
on the related company process date; and
	 
	 	ii.	 	if we elect cash
settlement, we will deliver to the converting holder in
respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being
converted, cash in an amount equal to the sum of the daily
conversion values for each of the 20 consecutive trading
days during the relevant conversion period.
	 
	 	iii.	 	If we elect combination
settlement, we will deliver and pay, as the case may be, to
the converting holder both our ordinary shares, if any, and
cash (in lieu of, and with a value, based on the
volume-weighted average price on each trading day of the
conversion period, equal to, the remaining number of our
ordinary shares that would otherwise be delivered if we had
elected physical settlement). Specifically, in respect of
each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, we
will deliver a number of our ordinary shares, if any, and
we will

A-7

 

	 	 	 	pay an amount of cash equal to the sum of the daily settlement
amounts for each of the 20 consecutive trading days during the
relevant conversion period.
	 
	 	iv.	 	If we do not deliver a
notice of election of settlement as described in the
“Description of the Notes—Conversion Settlement”
we shall be deemed to have elected combination settlement
and the specified dollar amount will be equal to $1,000.

	 	(c)	 	The Acupay System will compute the amount of income
to be attributed to each conversion operation and printed on each
Conversion Tax Certificate in accord with the character of the
consideration to be delivered:

	 	•	 	Share Consideration: The income will be computed as (A)
the difference between the (i) market value of the shares to be
delivered by us on the Conversion Settlement Date and (ii) the issue
price of the related Notes to be converted on such date, plus (B)
any cash paid in lieu of fractional shares.
	 
	 	 	 	The value of the shares initially employed in such calculations will
be computed by the Acupay System employing the volume weighted
average price per share (or if the volume weighted price per share is
not available, the average of the closing bid and closing ask prices)
on the third Business Day before the Conversion Settlement Date
(i.e., the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which each
related Tax Certificate is initially drafted). In the absence of the
availability of such data sources, the price will be determined by a
nationally recognized securities dealer retained by Acupay for that
purpose. In each case, the quotations or prices will be determined
without reference to extended or after hours trading.
	 
	 	•	 	Cash: The income will be computed as the difference
between (i) the amount of cash to be received by the converting
beneficial owner as specified in the Issuer’s Notice of Settlement
and (ii) the issue price of the related Notes to be converted.
	 
	 	•	 	Combination of Shares and Cash: With respect to the
ordinary shares delivered to the converting holders, the income will
be computed as explained in Section C.1.(c) “Share Consideration”
above, while with respect to the amount of cash delivered to the
converting holders, the income will be computed as explained in
Section C.1.(c) “Cash” above, in both cases on a pro-rata basis
considering the related Notes to be converted in ordinary shares and
cash, respectively.

	 	 	 	In the event that the income computed with respect to a conversion
operation is less than “0” (zero), it shall be deemed to be “0” (zero)
for the purpose of this paragraph.
	 
	 	 	 	The amount of income arising out of each conversion operation will be
printed on the Conversion Tax Certificates produced by the Acupay System
for use by the relevant DTC Participants, as described below.
	 
	 	(d)	 	At 9:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day
immediately preceding each Conversion Settlement Date, Acupay will update
the income computations described within this section C of Article III of
Annex A in order to determine whether income amounts computed employing
share prices obtained as of 4:00 p.m. on the second Business Day before
the Conversion Settlement Date would be materially different from the
income amounts computed and employed previously. If there is a positive
or negative difference in the income as previously computed equal to or
less than $0.25 per $100.00 of Notes so affected, such difference (if any,
and whether positive or negative) will be deemed “non-material” and will
be ignored for the purpose of these tax

A-8

 

	 	 	 	certification procedures. However, if such difference (whether positive
or negative) is greater than $0.25 per $100.00 principal amount of Notes
then:

(1) At 9:30 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding
each Conversion Settlement Date, all Conversion Tax Certificates previously
received by Acupay will be cancelled in the Acupay System;

(2) At 9:30 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day immediately preceding
the relevant Conversion Settlement Date, the Acupay System will produce
replacement Conversion Tax Certificates to replace each cancelled Conversion
Tax Certificate;

(3) Acupay staff will transmit a request to all affected DTC Participants that
they (i) print out, (ii) review, (iii) sign and (iv) fax or send by email a PDF
copy of each duly signed replacement Conversion Tax Certificate directly to
Acupay for receipt by 4:00 p.m. New York City time on the Business Day
immediately preceding the relevant Conversion Settlement Date; and

(4) The Acupay System will employ the updated amount of conversion income
computed on the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Conversion
Settlement Date in place of the amount of such income previously computed for
all relevant purposes described in this Article III of Annex A.

NOTE: A DTC Participant that obtains favorable tax treatment through this procedure and fails to
submit to Acupay the original physical Tax Certificates as described above may be prohibited by us
from using this procedure to obtain favorable tax treatment for future conversion operations or
income payments. In such event, the DTC Participant, as the case may be, (i) will receive any
future interest payment or conversion consideration (in respect of cash settlement conversions or
combination settlement conversions, but in this latter case only with respect to the amount of cash
delivered to the converting holders) on its entire position of remaining non-converted
Notes net of the applicable Spanish withholding tax (currently 19%) and relief will need to be
obtained directly from the Spanish tax authorities by following the direct refund procedure
established by Spanish tax law as described in Article II of Annex B or (ii) will have to comply
with certain separate formalities with the Spanish tax authorities with respect to the reporting of
positive income upon conversion of its Notes (in the case of physical settlement or combination
settlement, but in this latter case only with respect to the ordinary shares delivered to the
converting holders).

	D.	 	Additional Acupay Procedures

          1. In addition to its other duties and obligations set forth herein, Acupay will be
responsible for the following tasks (collectively, the “Acupay Verification Procedures”):

(a) comparing the Beneficial Owner Tax Information and Tax Certificates provided in
respect of each DTC Participant’s position with the DTC Conversion Instructions or
other relevant instructions transmitted via DTC by each DTC Participant in order to
determine whether any discrepancies exist between such information, the corresponding
DTC Conversion Instructions and the DTC Participant’s position in the Notes at DTC;

(b) collecting and collating all Tax Certificates received from the DTC Participants;

(c) reviewing the Beneficial Owner Tax Information and the Tax Certificates using
appropriate methodology in order to determine whether the requisite fields of
Beneficial Owner Tax Information have been supplied and that such fields of
information are responsive to the requirements of such Tax Certificates in order to
receive payments without Spanish withholding tax being assessed, if applicable;

(d) reviewing DTC Conversion Instructions and reconciling the principal amount of
Notes represented by such elections to (i) the relevant DTC Participant’s position at
DTC; (ii) the amount of DTC Conversion Instructions submitted via DTC by such DTC
Participant, (iii) the Beneficial Owner Conversion Information submitted by such DTC
Participant via the Acupay System, and (iv) the amount of positions represented by Tax
Certificates submitted by such DTC Participant and received by Acupay; and

A-9

 

(e) liaising with the DTC Participants in order to request that such DTC Participants:

(1) complete any missing or correct any erroneous Beneficial Owner Tax
Information, Beneficial Owner Conversion Information or Tax Certificates
identified pursuant to the procedures set forth in (a), (c) and (d) above;

(2) confirm, if deemed necessary, any non-conversion of their clients’ Notes;
and

(3) revise any Tax Certificates identified pursuant to the procedures set forth
in (a), (c), and (d) above as containing incomplete or inaccurate information.

          2. In addition to its other duties and obligations set forth herein, Acupay will be
responsible for the following tasks (collectively, the “Conversion Verification Procedures”):

(a) Determining based on the procedures established for such purpose in section C of
this Article III of Annex A above whether or not the conversion of Notes would result
in income attributable to such conversion:

(1) If no income would be attributable to such conversion, no further
Conversion Verification Procedures would be required.

(2) If any conversions are to be undertaken, Acupay shall determine for
each DTC Participant whether the principal amount of Notes to be converted
through any DTC Participant’s account is consistent with the principal amount
of Notes to be converted as set forth in the related Beneficial Owner
Conversion Information (and reported on the Conversion Tax Certificates)
supplied by such DTC Participant via the Acupay System. If any data in the
Conversion Tax Certificates is not consistent with the underlying data provided
by the DTC Participant or by DTC by 9:45 a.m. on the relevant Conversion
Settlement Date, then such Conversion Tax Certificates that have been submitted
by or on behalf of such DTC Participant will be disregarded by Acupay for all
purposes. This may result in the delivery of certain conversion consideration
net of Spanish withholding tax.

	E.	 	Updating and Verification of Beneficial Owner Tax Information and Beneficial Owner
Conversion Information

          1. Beginning at 7:45 a.m. New York City time on each Conversion Settlement Date, Acupay will,
through the Acupay Verification Procedures and Conversion Verification Procedures, perform the
final review of each DTC Participant’s Tax Certificates, Beneficial Owner Tax Information,
Beneficial Owner Conversion Information, DTC Conversion Instructions, and changes in DTC positions
in the Notes which have not been submitted for conversion. Based on these verification procedures
Acupay will (i) seek to notify any affected DTC Participant until 9:45 a.m. New York City time on
Conversion Settlement Date of any inconsistencies among these data, or erroneous or incomplete
information provided by such DTC Participant and (ii) use its best efforts to obtain revised Tax
Certificates, Beneficial Owner Tax Information or Beneficial Owner Conversion Information from any
such DTC Participant as necessary to correct any inconsistencies, erroneous or incomplete
information. The failure to correct any such inconsistencies, including the failure to fax or send
PDF copies of new or amended Tax Certificates by 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the Conversion
Settlement Date (or if Acupay, despite its best efforts to do so, does not confirm receipt of such
correction by 9:45 a.m. New York City time on the Conversion Settlement Date) will result in the
delivery of certain conversion consideration in respect of the relevant DTC Conversion Instructions
being made net of Spanish withholding tax.

          2. No later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each Conversion Settlement Date, Acupay will
release (through a secure data upload/download facility) PDF copies of the related signed Tax
Certificates to us. Acupay will forward original paper Tax Certificates it receives for receipt by
us no later than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately following each Conversion
Settlement Date. Acupay shall maintain records of all Tax Certificates (and other information
received through the Acupay System) for the longer of (x) five years from the related Conversion
Settlement Date or (y) five years following the final maturity or redemption of the Notes, and
shall, during such period, make copies of such records available to us at all reasonable times upon
request. In the event that we notify Acupay in writing that we are being tax audited, Acupay shall
maintain such duplicate back-up copies until the relevant statute of limitations applicable to any
tax year subject to audit expires.

A-10

 

          3. By 11:00 a.m. New York City time on each Conversion Settlement Date, Acupay will release
through a secure data upload facility to us, DTC and the conversion agent a final conversion
settlement report. Such report will indicate for each DTC Participant (i) the total principal
amount of Notes converted for settlement on such day with respect to each DTC Conversion
Instruction; the relevant portion of each conversion operation (ii) for which no taxes need to be
withheld, and (iii) for which taxes need to be withheld; and (iv) the net amount of cash and/or
shares to be delivered with respect to each DTC Conversion Instruction. The final conversion
settlement report will also state the share valuations employed in the computation of tax
liabilities attributable to all relevant conversion operations. Any amounts so deducted by the
conversion agent to satisfy the relevant DTC Participant’s withholding tax liability shall be
promptly transmitted to us, and Acupay shall promptly confirm any such deduction to the relevant
DTC Participant.

          4. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, we may direct the conversion agent and DTC
to ignore the final conversion settlement report and to undertake conversion settlements in a
manner different from that set forth in the final conversion settlement report if we (i) determine
that there are any inconsistencies with the tax certification activity therein represented or any
information set forth in the final conversion settlement report is, to our knowledge, inaccurate,
and (ii) provide notice of such determination in writing to the conversion agent, DTC and Acupay
prior to 11:30 a.m. New York City time on the relevant Conversion Settlement Date along with a list
of the affected DTC Participants and the net conversion consideration attributable to each such DTC
Participant.

Article IV

Quick Refund Procedure for Conversion Operations

	1.	 	Documentation Procedures
	 
	1.1	 	Beneficial owners holding through a Qualified Institution that is a DTC Participant

          a. Beginning at 9:00 a.m. New York City time on the Business Day following each Conversion
Settlement Date until 5:00 p.m. on the tenth calendar day of the month following the relevant
Conversion Settlement Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day
immediately preceding such day) (the “Quick Refund Deadline”), a DTC Participant (i) which is a
Qualified Institution, as defined in Article I of Annex B and holds Notes on behalf of beneficial
owners entitled to exemption from Spanish withholding tax and (ii) which was paid net of Spanish
withholding taxes due to a failure to comply with the Immediate Refund Procedure for Conversions of
the Notes set forth in Article III of Annex A above, may submit through the Acupay System the
Beneficial Owner Tax Information and, if applicable, the Beneficial Owner Conversion Information
with respect to beneficial ownership positions converted on such date. After entry of the
Beneficial Owner Tax Information and the Beneficial Owner Conversion Information into the Acupay
System by such DTC Participant, the Acupay System will produce completed Tax Certificates. Such DTC
Participant will then be required to (i) print out, (ii) review, (iii) sign and (iv) fax or send by
email a PDF copy of the duly signed Tax Certificates directly to Acupay for receipt by Acupay no
later than the Quick Refund Deadline. Such Tax Certificates will be dated as of the Conversion
Settlement Date or the Interest Payment Date, as applicable. The original Tax Certificates must be
sent to Acupay for receipt no later than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately following
the relevant Conversion Settlement Date or Interest Payment Date, as applicable.

          b. Acupay will then conduct the Acupay Verification Procedures with respect to the Beneficial
Owner Tax Information and the Conversion Verification Procedures with respect to the Beneficial
Owner Conversion Information submitted by the DTC Participants pursuant to paragraph 1.1.a of this
Article IV of Annex A above by comparing such Beneficial Owner Tax Information and Beneficial Owner
Conversion Information with such DTC Participant’s DTC Conversion Instructions and such DTC
Participant’s position in the Notes as reported by the close of business on the first Business Day
before the Conversion Settlement Date or the Interest Payment Date. DTC Participants may, until the
specified deadlines, revise Beneficial Owner Tax Information and Beneficial Owner Conversion
Information lodged in the Acupay System (and related Tax Certificates) in order to cure any
inconsistency detected through the Acupay Verification Procedures and the Conversion Verification
Procedures.

          Any misalignment between the total principal amount of Notes converted by any DTC Participant
account and the total principal amount of Notes converted as determined via the related Beneficial
Owner Conversion Information supplied by such DTC Participant via the Acupay System, will result in
such DTC Participant not being permitted to follow the Quick

A-11

 

Refund Procedures set forth in this Article IV of Annex A, and any beneficial owner holding
through such DTC Participant will instead need to rely on the Direct Refund Procedures set forth in
Article II of Annex B below.

          c. Acupay will reconcile the Tax Certificates to the reports of DTC positions which were
converted on the Conversion Settlement Date (as certified by DTC) and DTC Conversion Instructions
until the Quick Refund Deadline. Acupay will collect payment instructions from DTC Participants or
their designees and, no later than 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the third calendar day
following the Quick Refund Deadline (or if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day
immediately preceding such day), will release (through a secure data upload/download facility) PDF
copies of the verified Tax Certificates to us and the payment instructions to us and the conversion
agent or paying agent, as applicable.

	1.2	 	Beneficial owners holding through a DTC Participant that is not a Qualified Institution

          a. Beneficial owners entitled to obtain income in respect of the Notes (including conversion
income derived from the conversion of the Notes) gross of any Spanish withholding taxes but who
have been paid net of Spanish withholding taxes as a result of holding interests in the Notes
through DTC Participants who are not Qualified Institutions will be entitled to utilize the Quick
Refund Procedure set forth in the following paragraph.

          b. Such beneficial owners may request from us the reimbursement of the amount withheld by
providing Acupay, as our agent, with (i) documentation to confirm their securities entitlement in
respect of the Notes on the relevant Conversion Settlement Date or Interest Payment Date, as
applicable (which documentation must include statements from (A) DTC, (B) the relevant DTC
Participant setting forth such DTC Participant’s aggregate DTC position on the Conversion
Settlement Date or Interest Payment Date as well as the portion of such position that was paid net
and gross of withholding taxes, together with an accounting record of the amounts of such position
and payments which were attributable to the beneficial owner), and from the relevant DTC
Participant describing the operations (if any) conducted regarding the conversion of the Notes and
(ii) a certificate of residency issued by the tax authorities of the country of residency of such
beneficial owner (a “Government Tax Residency Certificate”). Such Government Tax Residency
Certificate (which is currently valid for a period of one year after its date of issuance) together
with the information regarding the securities entitlement in respect of the Notes must be submitted
to Acupay on our behalf no later than the Quick Refund Deadline. Acupay will collect payment
instructions from DTC Participants or their designees, as the case may be, and, no later than 12:00
p.m. New York City time on the third calendar day following the Quick Refund Deadline (or if such
day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately preceding such day), will release to
us (through a secure data upload/download facility) PDF copies of the Government Tax Residency
Certificates, and to us and the conversion agent or paying agent, as applicable (x) the related
payment instructions and (y) a reconciliation of such payment instructions to (1) the outstanding
principal amount of Notes owned through each DTC Participant as of the close of business on the
first Business Day before the Conversion Settlement Date and (2) the outstanding principal amount
of such Notes on which income (including conversion income derived from the conversion of the
Notes) was paid net of Spanish withholding tax on the relevant Conversion Settlement Date or
Interest Payment Date. Acupay will forward all original Government Tax Residency Certificates it
receives for receipt by us no later than the 15th calendar day of the month immediately
following each Interest Payment Date or Conversion Settlement Date, as applicable.

	1.3	 	Early Redemption of the Notes

          In the case of the early redemption or repurchase of the Notes upon either a fundamental
change or other event, a Quick Refund Procedure substantially similar to those procedures set forth
in this Article IV of Annex A will be made available to investors. A detailed description of each
such Quick Refund Procedure will be available upon request from Acupay in the event of the
announcement of such event.

	2.	 	Payment Procedures

          1. Upon receipt of the relevant Tax Certificates and Government Tax Residency Certificates
together with related documentation (if any) from Acupay pursuant to the procedures in part 1 of
this Article IV of Annex A, we will review such certificates together with related documentation
(if any) and confirm the approved elections and related payments no later than the 18th calendar
day of the month following the relevant Conversion Settlement Date or Interest Payment Date (or if
such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately preceding such day).

2. On the 19th calendar day of the month following the relevant Conversion Settlement Date or
Interest Payment Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately
preceding such day), we will make payments equal to the amounts initially

A-12

 

withheld from DTC Participants complying with the Quick Refund Procedure to the conversion agent or
paying agent, as applicable, and the conversion agent or paying agent, as applicable, shall, within
one Business Day of such date, transfer such payments to DTC Participants directly for the benefit
of beneficial owners.

FORMS OF REQUIRED SPANISH WITHHOLDING TAX DOCUMENTATION AND PROCEDURES FOR DIRECT REFUNDS FROM SPANISH TAX AUTHORITIES

Article I 

	 	 	Documentation Required by Spanish Tax Law pursuant to the Immediate Refund Procedure
	 
	1.	 	If the holder of a Note is not resident in Spain for tax purposes and acts for its own
account and is a central bank, other public institution or international organization, a bank
or credit institution or a financial entity, including collective investment institutions,
pension funds and insurance entities, resident in an OECD country (including the United
States) or in a country with which Spain has entered into a double tax treaty subject to a
specific administrative registration or supervision scheme (each, a “Qualified Institution”),
the entity in question must certify its name and tax residency substantially in the form
provided in Exhibit I to this Annex.
	 
	2.	 	In the case of transactions in which a Qualified Institution which is a holder of Notes acts
as an intermediary, the entity in question must, in accordance with the information contained
in its own records, certify the name and country of tax residency of each beneficial owner not
resident in Spain for tax purposes as of the Interest Payment Date substantially in the form
provided in Exhibit II to this Annex.
	 
	3.	 	In the case of transactions which are channeled through a securities clearing and deposit
entity recognized for these purposes by Spanish law or by the law of another OECD member
country, the entity in question (i.e., the clearing system participants) must, in accordance
with the information contained in its own records, certify the name and country of tax
residency of each beneficial owner not resident in Spain for tax purposes as of the Interest
Payment Date substantially in the form provided in Exhibit II to this Annex.
	 
	4.	 	If the beneficial owner is resident in Spain for tax purposes and is subject to Spanish
Corporate Income Tax, the entities listed in paragraphs (2) or (3) above (such as the
participants in DTC which are Qualified Institutions) must submit a certification specifying
the name, address, Tax Identification Number, the CUSIP or ISIN code of the Notes, the
beneficial interest in the principal amount of the Notes held at each Interest Payment Date,
gross income and amount withheld, substantially in the form set out in Exhibit III to
this Annex.
	 
	5.	 	In the case of beneficial owners who do not hold their interests in the Notes through
Qualified Institutions or whose holdings are not channeled through a securities clearing and
deposit entity recognized for these purposes by Spanish law or by the law of another OECD
member country, the beneficial owner must submit (i) proof of beneficial ownership and (ii) a
Government Tax Residency Certificate.

Article II 

Direct Refund from Spanish Tax Authorities Procedure

	1.	 	Beneficial owners entitled to exemption from Spanish withholding tax who have not timely
followed either the Immediate Refund Procedure set forth in Article I of Annex A or the Quick
Refund Procedure set forth in Article II of Annex A, and therefore have been subject to
Spanish withholding tax, may request a full refund of the amount that has been withheld
directly from the Spanish tax authorities.
	 
	 	 	Beneficial owners have up to the time period allowed pursuant to Spanish law (currently, a
maximum of four years as of the relevant Interest Payment Date to claim the amount withheld from
the Spanish Treasury by filing with the Spanish tax authorities (i) the relevant Spanish tax
form, (ii) proof of beneficial ownership and (iii) a Government Tax Residency Certificate (from
the IRS in the case of U.S. resident beneficial owners)).

AMERICAN GREETINGS CORPORATION 2007 OMNIBUS

INCENTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT GRANT AGREEMENT

	 	 	 

	Award:

	 	Restricted Class ___Stock Units
	 
	 	 
	Grant Date:

	 	                    , 20___(“Date of Grant”)
	 
	 	 
	Vesting Dates:

	 	The award of Restricted Stock Units shall vest in the
manner set forth in your Notice of Grant, as such term is
defined below.

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of the Grant Date stated above, is delivered by American Greetings
Corporation (the “Company” or “American Greetings”) to the individual employee of
the Company (the “Grantee”) identified in the notice of restricted stock unit award grant
(the “Notice of Grant”) delivered to Grantee.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to give Grantee an opportunity to acquire or enlarge his equity
ownership in the Company for the purpose of augmenting Grantee’s proprietary interest in the
success of American Greetings and thereby focusing Grantee’s efforts on increasing shareholder
value.

A G R E E M E N T

NOW, THEREFORE, Grantee has received or will receive a Notice of Grant, which, if accepted in
accordance with the instructions in such notice, will constitute Grantee’s binding agreement with
the following terms:

1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the Company hereby grants to Grantee the number of Restricted Stock Units (the
“RSUs”) relating to the class and number of common shares of the Company (the
“Shares”), as indicated on the Notice of Grant. The grant of RSUs shall represent the
right to receive such number of Shares, upon the satisfaction of certain vesting requirements set
forth in Section 2(b), with issuance of such Shares to be made in accordance with Section 2(a).
The RSUs described in this Agreement are in all respects subject to the terms, conditions and
provisions of this Agreement, the Notice of Grant and the Company’s 2007 Omnibus Incentive
Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

2. Vesting Or Forfeiture of Credited RSUs; Payment of Award.

     (a) Vesting. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2, RSUs granted to Grantee
pursuant to Section 1 shall vest over the period as set forth in the Notice of Grant. If vesting
will result in a fractional Share, then the amount vested shall be rounded up to the nearest whole
Share; provided, however, the number of shares to vest as of the last vesting date shall be
rounded down to such number that will result in the total number of Shares vesting equaling the
total grant represented hereby.

     (b) Payment of Award. Within 90 days after any RSUs are deemed vested pursuant to
Section 2(b), but in no event longer than the maximum time period permitted under Section 409A of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the
“Code”) to qualify as a short-term deferral, such RSUs shall be issued to Grantee in the form of
Shares. At such

 - 1 - 

 

time, Grantee shall enjoy full shareholder and ownership rights with respect to
such Shares. Shares shall be delivered to Grantee either through book-entry transfer of beneficial
ownership of the Shares or through delivery of a stock certificate representing all such Shares and
registered in his or her name. The method of delivery shall be selected by the Company, in its
sole discretion. In the case of Grantee’s death after vesting, payment of any Shares that are
vested on his date of death will be made to the beneficiary designated by Grantee in a writing
filed with the Company or, if none, to Grantee’s estate.

     (c) Forfeiture & Accelerated Vesting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion
of RSUs granted hereby have not vested on the date that Grantee incurs a Separation from Service,
as defined in Code Section 409A, as the result of Grantee’s Retirement, death or Disability,
Grantee will vest in such number of RSU’s obtained by subtracting (i) the number of RSUs that have
vested as of the date of the Separation from Service from (ii) the quotient obtained by
multiplying (x) the total number of RSUs represented hereby by (y) a percentage equal to the period
of time from the Date of Grant to the date of Separation from Service as a percentage of the total
vesting period for the RSUs as set forth in the Notice of Grant. If Grantee incurs a Separation
from Service for any other reason than those specified in the preceding sentence, including,
without limitation, any Separation from Service initiated by Grantee other than Retirement, or any
Separation from Service initiated by the Company for Cause or otherwise, any RSUs not otherwise
vested pursuant to this Section 2(b) on the Grantee’s date of Separation from Service are
forfeited. In addition, if Grantee’s Separation from Service is initiated by the Company for
Cause, or if and to the extent required by applicable law, then any RSUs vested pursuant to this
Section 2(b), but not yet delivered to Grantee, shall also be forfeited and shall not be delivered.

     (d) For purposes of this Agreement:

          (i) “Cause” has such meaning as may be defined in any agreement between Grantee and
the Company and, if none, will mean any one or more of the following: Grantee’s (i) fraud; (ii)
misappropriation of funds; (iii) commission of a felony or of an act or series of acts which
results in material injury to the business reputation of the Company; (iv) commission of a crime or
act or series of acts involving moral turpitude; (v) commission of an act or series of repeated
acts of dishonesty that are materially inimical to the best interests of the Company; (vi) willful
and repeated failure to perform his or her duties, which failure has not been cured in all
substantial respects within fifteen (15) days after the Company gives written notice thereof to
Grantee; or (vii) breach of any material provision of any employment agreement between the Company
and Grantee, which breach has not been cured in all substantial respects within ten (10) days after
the Company gives written notice thereof to Grantee.

          (ii) “Retirement” shall mean Grantee’s Separation from Service after completing ten
(10) or more years of continuous service and attaining age sixty-five (65).

          (iii) “Disability” shall mean that Grantee is “disabled” as such term is defined in
Code Section 409A(a)(2).

3. Ownership Rights. Except as otherwise provided herein, Grantee will not have the rights
of a shareholder of the Company with respect to any Shares issuable upon the vesting of any RSUs.
Upon receipt of any portion of Shares issued pursuant to RSUs awarded under Section 1 and vested
pursuant to Section 2, Grantee shall be entitled to exercise all ownership rights (including,
without limitation, the right to vote and the right to receive dividends) with respect to such
Shares, provided that voting and dividend rights with respect to the Shares will be exercisable
only if the record date for determining shareholders entitled to vote and receive dividends, as the case may be, falls on or
after the date as of which Shares are issued to Grantee pursuant to this Agreement.

 - 2 - 

 

4. Deferral of Delivery of Shares. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the
contrary, if any law or regulation of any governmental authority having jurisdiction in the matter
requires the Company, the Board, the Committee or Grantee to take any action or refrain from action
in connection with the award or delivery of Shares under this Agreement, or to delay such award or
delivery, then the award or delivery of such Shares shall be deferred until such action has been
taken or such restriction on action has been removed, subject to any applicable requirements under
Code Section 409A. If Grantee is eligible to participate in the Company’s Executive Deferred
Compensation Plan and the class of common shares that are subject to the RSUs are otherwise
eligible for deferral thereunder, at Grantee’s election, Grantee may also defer receipt of any
Shares earned under the Agreement in accordance with the Plan, any such deferred Shares to be
credited with dividend equivalents. Any such deferred Shares, including dividend equivalents, if
any, to be paid at the end of any applicable deferral period shall be paid in shares of the same
class of common shares that are subject to the RSUs, rounded to the nearest whole share, with any
such deferral election to be made at a time and in a manner that complies with all applicable
requirements under Code Section 409A. In addition, if and to the extent required under Code
Section 409A, delivery of Shares hereunder to Grantee shall be made no earlier than six months
after Grantee’s Separation from Service if Grantee is a “specified employee” on such date.

5. General Provisions. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee has read, understands and agrees
with all of the provisions in this Agreement and the Plan, including, but not limited to, the
following:

     (a) Administration. The interpretation and construction by the Board and/or the
Committee of any provision of this Agreement, the Plan or any notification or document evidencing
the grant of RSUs and that any determination by the Board or such Committee pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement or the Plan or of any such agreement, notification or document shall be
final and conclusive.

     (b) Notices. Any notice that is required or permitted under this Agreement shall be
in writing (unless otherwise specified in the Agreement or in a writing from the Company to
Grantee), and delivered personally or by mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: (i) if to the
Company, at One American Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44144, Attention: Human Resources Department, or at
such other address as the Company by notice to Grantee may have designated from time to time; (ii)
if to Grantee, at the address indicated in Grantee’s then-current personnel records, or at such
other address as Grantee by notice to the Company may have designated from time to time. Such
notice shall be deemed given upon receipt. From time to time, the Company may also authorize
communications and any notice that is required or permitted under this Agreement to be provided
electronically either through the Company’s email or other systems or through third parties,
including any administrator of the Company’s RSU or other equity programs, as designated from time
to time by the Company.

     (c) Compliance With Securities Laws. Grantee acknowledges that the RSUs are intended
to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission thereunder, including without limitation Rule 144 under the Securities Act
of 1933 and Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, the RSUs are granted only in such a manner as to conform to such laws, rules and
regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this RSU Agreement will be deemed amended
to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.

     (d) Taxation. Grantee shall be responsible for all applicable income and withholding
taxes and the employee share of FICA taxes with respect to any compensation income generated upon
the vesting or issuance of any RSUs under this Agreement. No later than the date as of which an
amount first becomes subject to applicable federal, state, or local income, wage or employment tax

 - 3 - 

 

withholding (including employee share of FICA) with respect to the RSUs awarded hereunder, Grantee
shall pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding the payment
of, any federal, state or local income, wage or employment taxes of any kind required by law to be
withheld with respect to that amount. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, withholding
obligations may be settled (i) with previously owned common shares or (ii) Shares that have vested
and that are issuable hereunder (in the minimum amount necessary to satisfy any applicable
withholding requirements). The making of that payment or those arrangements is a condition to the
obligations of the Company under the Plan, and the Company may, to the extent permitted by law,
deduct any taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise payable to Grantee or the Company may
retain such number of the Shares issuable upon the vesting of RSUs covered by the grant evidenced
by this Agreement as shall be equal in value to the amount of the remaining withholding obligation.

     (e) Nontransferability. This Agreement and the RSUs granted to Grantee shall be
nontransferable and shall not be sold, hypothecated or otherwise assigned or conveyed by Grantee to
any other person, except as specifically permitted in this Agreement. No assignment or transfer of
this Agreement or the rights represented thereby, whether voluntary or involuntary, or by operation
of law or otherwise, shall vest in the assignee or transferee any interest or right whatsoever,
except as specifically permitted in this Agreement. The Agreement shall terminate, and be of no
force or effect, immediately upon any attempt to assign or transfer the Agreement or any of the
RSUs to which the Agreement applies.

     (f) Not an Employment Contract. This Agreement shall not be deemed to limit or
restrict the right of the Company to terminate Grantee’s employment at any time, for any reason,
with or without Cause, or to limit or restrict the right of Grantee to terminate his employment
with the Company at any time.

     (g) Adjustments. On any change in the number or kind of outstanding common shares of
the Company by reason of a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, separation,
liquidation, share split, share dividend, combination of shares or any other change in the
corporate structure or common shares of the Company, the Company, by action of the Board or the
Committee shall make such adjustment, if any, in the number and kind of RSUs subject to this
agreement as it considers appropriate in order that the rights of Grantee hereunder are neither
enlarged nor diminished.

     (h) Unsecured Creditor Status. This grant of RSUs constitutes a mere promise by the
Company to pay Grantee the benefits described in this grant (to the extent credited and vested).
Grantee shall have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company with respect to the
benefits payable under this Agreement. Grantee’s right to receive credited and vested shares shall
not be subject to any assignment, pledge, levy, garnishment, attachment or other attempt to assign
or alienate such shares prior to their delivery to Grantee, including, without limitation, under
any domestic relations order, and any such attempted assignment or alienation shall be null, void
and of no effect.

     (i) Fractional Shares. Except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2(a),
notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that any adjustment to the
grant of RSUs or an award of Shares or the calculation of an award pursuant to this Agreement would
otherwise result in the creation of a fractional share interest, the affected award shall be
rounded to the nearest whole share.

     (j) Amendment or Termination. This Agreement may be amended or terminated at any time
by the mutual agreement and written consent of Grantee and the Company, but only to the extent
permitted under the Plan. The provisions set forth in this Agreement are subject to the
restrictions and other requirements of Code Section 409A and related regulations and rulings.
Without limiting the

 - 4 - 

 

generality of the preceding sentence, such provisions shall be modified and
amended, as and where necessary, to bring such provisions into compliance with the requirements set
forth in Code Section 409A and related regulations and rulings. This Agreement shall be
interpreted (and if necessary, amended) to comply with Code Section 409A and to the extent any
provision of this Agreement is inconsistent with Code Section 409A, said Code Section 409A shall
control even if such action may reduce or diminish the value of Grantee’s award.

     (k) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement should be held illegal or
invalid for any reason, such determination shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement,
and it shall be construed as if such provision had never been included herein.

     (l) Headings/Gender. Headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall
not be construed to be part of this Agreement. Any reference to the masculine, feminine or neuter
gender shall be a reference to other genders as appropriate.

     (m) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed, and its provisions enforced and
administered, in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio and, where applicable, federal law.

     (n) Definitions. Initial capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not
otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

     (o) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall
be deemed original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Grantee’s acceptance of this agreement in accordance with the instructions in the Notice of Grant
will constitute Grantee’s binding agreement with the terms hereof.
