Interest.

security for the prompt, complete and indefeasible payment when due (whether on the payment dates or otherwise) of all the Borrower’s
obligations under this Note (whether now existing or hereafter arising), each Obligor grants to Lender a security interest in all
of such Obligor’s right, title and interest in and to the following personal Property whether now owned or hereafter acquired
(collectively, the “Collateral”): (a) Receivables; (b) Equipment; (c) Fixtures; (d) General Intangibles (other
than Intellectual Property); (e) Inventory; (f) Investment Property (but excluding thirty-five percent (35%) of the capital stock
of any foreign Subsidiary); (g) Deposit Accounts; (h) Cash; (i) Goods, and other tangible and intangible personal Property of such
Obligor whether now or hereafter owned or existing, leased, consigned by or to, or acquired by, such Obligor and wherever located;

is necessary to have a security interest in the proceeds from the sale of such Intellectual Property, at the time of a sale, then

necessary to permit perfection of Lender’s security interest in the sales proceeds of Intellectual Property.

to the Lender to provide that Lender shall have “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104(a) of the New York Uniform
Commercial Code) over such Deposit Accounts effective after the Hercules LSA has been paid in full, and (ii) cause insurance certificates
to be issued to the Lender in accordance with Section 16(b).

Borrower shall cause to be carried and maintained commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence form, against risks
customarily insured against in Borrower’s line of business, but in no event less than set forth in this Section 16(a). Such
risks shall include the risks of bodily injury, including death, property damage, personal injury, advertising injury, and contractual
liability per the terms of the indemnification agreement found in Section 16(c). Borrower must maintain a minimum of $2,000,000
of commercial general liability insurance for each occurrence. Borrower has and agrees to maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 of directors
and officers’ insurance for each occurrence and $5,000,000 in the aggregate. So long as there are any obligations under this
Note outstanding, Borrower shall also cause to be carried and maintained insurance upon the Collateral, insuring against all risks
of physical loss or damage howsoever caused, in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Collateral, provided that
such insurance may be subject to standard exceptions and deductibles. Borrower shall also carry and maintain a fidelity insurance

    	12

    	 

    

 

 

(b)          Certificates.
As provided in Section 9(c) and thereafter upon request, Borrower shall deliver to Lender certificates of insurance that evidence
Borrower’s compliance with its insurance obligations in Section 16(a) and the obligations contained in this Section 16(b).
Borrower’s insurance certificate shall state Lender is an additional insured for commercial general liability, an additional
insured and a lender loss payee for all risk property damage insurance, subject to the insurer’s approval, a loss payee for
fidelity insurance, and a lender loss payee for property insurance and additional insured for liability insurance for any future
insurance that Borrower may acquire from such insurer. Attached to the certificates of insurance will be additional insured endorsements
for liability and lender’s loss payable endorsements for all risk property damage insurance and fidelity. All certificates
of insurance will provide for a minimum of thirty (30) days advance written notice to Lender of cancellation. Any failure of Lender
to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Lender’s rights, all of which are reserved.

 

(c)          Indemnity.
Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Persons from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages
and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict liability
in tort), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other reasonable costs of investigation or defense (including
those incurred upon any appeal), that may be instituted or asserted by a third party against and incurred by such Indemnified Person
as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Note or the administration of such credit, or
in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, or any actions or failures to act
in connection therewith, or arising out of the disposition or utilization of the Collateral, excluding in all cases claims resulting
primarily from Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. “Indemnified Persons” means Lender and its officers,
directors, employees, agents, representatives and shareholders. Borrower agrees to pay, and to save Lender harmless from, any and
all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all excise, sales or other similar taxes (excluding
taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender) that may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of
the Collateral or this Note.

 

17.         Miscellaneous.

 

(a)          The
provisions of this Note are intended to be severable. If for any reason any provisions of this Note shall be held invalid or unenforceable
in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity
or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining
provisions thereof in any jurisdiction.

 

(b)          No
amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Note nor consent to departure by the Borrower therefrom
shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed the Borrower and the Lender, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. The captions and section headings
appearing in this Note are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any
provision of this Note.

 

    	13

    	 

    

 

 

(c)          This
Note shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective if any petition is filed by or against either Obligor for
liquidation or reorganization, if either Obligor becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver
or trustee is appointed for all or any significant part of either Obligor’s assets, or if any payment or transfer of Collateral
is recovered from Lender. This Note and the obligations hereunder and Collateral security shall continue to be effective, or shall
be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Loan or any transfer of Collateral
to Lender, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned
by, or is recovered from, Lender or by any obligee of the Loan, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent
conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment, performance, or transfer of Collateral had not been made. In the event
that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable, restored, returned, or recovered, this Note and
the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any further action or documentation, to have been revived and reinstated except
to the extent of the full, final, and indefeasible payment to Lender in cash.

 

(d)          This
Note and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different
parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts
shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 

(e)          No
provisions of this Note are intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other
rights of any kind in any Person other than Lender and Obligors unless specifically provided otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise
so provided, all provisions of this Note will be personal and solely between the Lender and the Obligors.

in and made a part of the Indenture. To the extent applicable, the Issuer and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of the
Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereby.

 

Any Global

provisions of the Indenture as may be required by the Custodian or the Depositary, or as may be required to comply with any applicable
law or any regulation thereunder or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange or automated quotation system upon

Each Global

represent the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate principal
amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be increased or reduced to reflect redemptions, repurchases,

any increase or decrease in the amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby shall be made by the Trustee or the Custodian,
at the direction of the Trustee, in such manner and upon instructions given by the Holder of such Notes in accordance with the
Indenture. Payment of principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest
on, a Global Note shall be made to the Holder of such Note on the date of payment, unless a record date or other means of determining
Holders eligible to receive payment is provided for herein.

 

Section 2.03.         Date
and Denomination of Notes; Payments of Interest and Defaulted Amounts. (a) The Notes shall be issuable in registered form without
coupons in minimum denominations of $1,000 principal amount and integral multiples thereof. Each Note shall be dated the date of
its authentication and shall bear interest from the date specified on the face of such Note. Accrued interest on the Notes shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year composed of twelve 30-day months and, for partial months, on the basis of actual days
elapsed over a 30-day month.

 

(b)          The
Person in whose name any Note (or its Predecessor Note) is registered on the Note Register at the close of business on any Regular
Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be entitled to receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment
Date. Interest shall be payable at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by the Issuer for such purposes, which shall initially
be the Corporate Trust Office. The Issuer shall pay interest (i) on any Physical Notes (A) to Holders holding Physical Notes having
an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or less, by check mailed to the Holders of these Notes at their address as it appears
in the Note Register and (B) to Holders holding Physical Notes having an aggregate principal amount of more than $5,000,000, either
by check mailed to each Holder or, upon application by such a Holder to the Note Registrar not later than the relevant Regular
Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to that Holder’s account within the United States, which application
shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Note Registrar to the contrary or (ii) on any Global Note by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

 

(c)          Any
Defaulted Amounts shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant payment date but 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, such relevant payment date, and such Defaulted Amounts together with such interest thereon shall be paid by the
Issuer, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (i) or (ii) below:

 

    	30

    	 

    

 

(i)          The
Issuer may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Amounts to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor
Notes) are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts, which shall
be fixed in the following manner. The Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of the Defaulted Amounts proposed
to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which shall be not less than 25 days after the receipt by the Trustee
of such notice, unless the Trustee shall consent to an earlier date), and at the same time the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee
an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Amounts or shall make arrangements satisfactory
to the Trustee for such deposit on or prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust
for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Amounts as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Issuer shall fix a
special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Amounts which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior
to the date of the proposed payment, and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment.
The Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee of such special record date and the Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the
Issuer, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor to be mailed,
first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at its address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such
special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Amounts and the special record date therefor having been
so mailed, such Defaulted Amounts shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes)
are registered at the close of business on such special record date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause
(ii) of this Section 2.03(c).

 

(ii)         The
Issuer may make payment of any Defaulted Amounts in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or designated for issuance, and upon such notice as may
be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, if, after notice given by the Issuer to the Trustee of the proposed
payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

 

(d) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if (1) the Notes remain outstanding after the fifth anniversary of the initial issuance thereof
and (2) the aggregate amount of the accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes (including any amounts treated as interest for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, such as “original issue discount”) as of any Testing Date occurring after such fifth anniversary
exceeds an amount equal to the Maximum Accrual, then all such accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes (including any amounts treated
as interest for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such as “original issue discount”) as of such time in excess of an
amount equal to the Maximum Accrual shall be paid in cash on such Testing Date by the Issuer to the holders thereof as of the most
recent Regular Record Date, it being the intent of the parties hereto that the deductibility of interest under the Notes shall
not be limited or deferred by reason of Code Section 163(e)(5). For these purposes, the “Maximum Accrual” is an amount
equal to the product of such Notes’ issue price (as defined in Code Sections 1273(b) and 1274(a)) and their yield to maturity,
and a “Testing Date” is any Interest Payment Date and the date on which any “accrual period” (within the
meaning of Code Section 1274(a)(5)) closes. The Maximum Accrual and Testing Date shall be computed by the Company, and the Trustee
shall have no obligation or duty to compute or verify any such amounts. The Company shall provide the Trustee with written notice
fifteen (15) Business Days in advance of any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 2.03(d) which shall set forth the date
when such payment will be made and the amount (and calculation) to be paid, and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely
thereon. Any accrued interest which for any reason has not theretofore been paid shall be paid when otherwise due or in full on
the date on which the final principal payment on a Note is made.

Section 2.04.         Execution,
Authentication and Delivery of Notes. The Notes shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Issuer by the manual or electronic
signature, including PDF of its Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary or any of its
Executive or Senior Vice Presidents.

 

At any time
and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Issuer may deliver Notes executed by the Issuer to
the Trustee for authentication, together with a Issuer Order for the authentication and delivery of such Notes, and the Trustee
in accordance with such Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver such Notes, without any further action by the Issuer 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 by an authorized officer of the Trustee (or an authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee
as provided by Section 2.11), shall be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such
certificate by the Trustee (or such an authenticating agent) upon any Note executed by the Issuer 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 the Indenture.

 

In case any
Officer of the Issuer 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 Issuer, 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 Issuer; and any Note
may be signed on behalf of the Issuer by such persons as, at the actual date of the execution of such Note, shall be the Officers
of the Issuer, 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 Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate
Trust Office a register (the register maintained in such office or in any other office or agency of the Issuer designated pursuant
to Section 4.08 hereof, the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Issuer shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. 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 Trustee is hereby initially appointed
the “Note Registrar” for the purpose of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Issuer
may appoint one or more co-Note Registrars in accordance with Section 4.08.

 

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

 

    	32

    	 

    

 

Notes may
be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Notes
to be exchanged at any such office or agency maintained by the Issuer pursuant to Section 4.08. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered
for exchange, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange
is entitled to receive, bearing registration numbers not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

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

 

No service
charge shall be imposed by the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent for any exchange
or registration of transfer of Notes, but the Issuer may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp
or similar issue or transfer tax required in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of new Notes issued upon
such exchange or registration of transfer being different from the name of the Holder of the old Notes surrendered for exchange
or registration of transfer.

 

None of the
Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar or any co-Note 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 or (ii) any Notes, or a portion of any Note, surrendered for repurchase (and not withdrawn) in accordance with Article
15.

 

All Notes
issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture shall be the valid obligations of
the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under the 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
the Indenture (including the restrictions on transfer set forth herein) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor.

 

(c)          Every
Note that bears or is required under this Section 2.05(c) to bear the legend set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (together with any
Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes and required to bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), collectively, the
“Restricted Securities”) shall be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section 2.05(c) (including
the legend set forth below), unless such restrictions on transfer shall be eliminated or otherwise waived by written consent of
the Issuer, 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.

 

    	33

    	 

    

 

Until the
date (the “Resale Restriction Termination Date”) that is the later of (1) the date that is one year after the last
date of 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 law, any certificate evidencing
such Note (and all securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof, other than Common Stock, if any, issued upon
conversion thereof which shall bear the legend set forth in Section 2.05(d), if applicable) shall bear a legend in substantially
the following form (unless such Notes have been transferred pursuant to a registration statement that has become or been declared
effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of such transfer, or sold pursuant to the exemption
from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed
by the Issuer in writing, with notice thereof to the Trustee):

 

THIS SECURITY
AND THE COMMON STOCK, IF ANY, ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION OF THIS SECURITY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER:

 

(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, AND

 

(2)         AGREES
FOR THE BENEFIT OF 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 LAST 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
RCS CAPITAL CORPORATION (THE “COMPANY”) OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR

 

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

 

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

 

    	34

    	 

    

 

(D)         PURSUANT
TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANYAVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

 

PRIOR TO
THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(D) ABOVE, THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH
LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS IT MAY REQUIRE AND RELY UPON 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 Issuer shall promptly notify the Trustee upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction
Termination Date and promptly after a registration statement, if any, with respect to the Notes or any Common Stock issued upon
conversion of the Notes has been declared effective under the Securities Act.

 

Notwithstanding
any other provisions of the 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 Issuer 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 for Cede & Co.

 

    	35

    	 

    

 

If (i) the
Depositary notifies the Issuer at any time that the Depositary is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for the Global
Notes and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days, (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a clearing agency
under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 90 days or (iii) an Event of Default with respect to
the Notes has occurred and is continuing and a beneficial owner of any Note requests that its beneficial interest therein be issued
as a Physical Note, the Issuer shall execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers’ Certificate and a Issuer Order
for the authentication and delivery of Notes, shall authenticate and deliver (x) in the case of clause (iii), a Physical Note to
such beneficial owner in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such Note corresponding to such beneficial owner’s
beneficial interest and (y) in the case of clause (i) or (ii), Physical Notes to each beneficial owner of the related Global Notes
(or a portion thereof) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Global Notes in exchange
for such Global Notes, and upon delivery of the Global Notes to the Trustee such Global Notes shall be canceled.

 

Physical
Notes issued in exchange for all or a part of the Global Note pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall be registered in such names
and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise,
shall instruct the Trustee. Upon execution and authentication, the Trustee shall deliver such Physical Notes to the Persons in
whose names such Physical Notes are so registered.

 

At such time
as all interests in a Global Note have been converted, canceled, repurchased or transferred, such Global Note shall be, upon receipt
thereof, canceled by the Trustee in accordance with 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 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
Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Note Registrar, the Conversion Agent or any agent of the Issuer, the Trustee, the Paying
Agent, the Note Registrar, or the 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, ensuring the accuracy
of or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

 

(d)          Until
the Resale Restriction Termination Date, any stock certificate representing Common Stock issued upon conversion of such Note shall
bear a legend in substantially the following form (unless the Note or such Common Stock has been transferred pursuant to a registration
statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of
such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under
the Securities Act, or such Common Stock has been issued upon conversion of Notes that have been transferred pursuant to a registration
statement that has become or been declared effective under the Securities Act and that continues to be effective at the time of
such transfer, or pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 or any similar provision then in force under
the Securities Act, or unless otherwise agreed by the Issuer with written notice thereof to the Trustee and any transfer agent
for the Common Stock):

THIS SECURITY
HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED,
SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL
INTEREST HEREIN, THE ACQUIRER:

 

(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, AND

 

(2)         AGREES
FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY THAT IT WILL NOT OFFER, SELL, PLEDGE OR OTHER WISE TRANSFER THIS SECURITY OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST
HEREIN PRIOR TO THE DATE THAT IS THE LATER OF (X) ONE YEAR AFTER THE LAST 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
RCS CAPITAL CORPORATION (THE “COMPANY”) OR ANY SUBSIDIARY THEREOF, OR

 

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

 

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

 

(D)         PURSUANT
TO RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR ANY AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

 

PRIOR TO
THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (2)(D) ABOVE, THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH
LEGAL OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS IT MAY REQUIRE AND RELY UPON 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
Common Stock as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of
the certificates representing such shares of Common Stock for exchange in accordance with the procedures of the transfer agent
for the Common Stock, be exchanged for a new certificate or certificates for a like aggregate number of shares of Common Stock,
which shall not bear the restrictive legend required by this Section 2.05(d).

 

    	37

    	 

    

 

(e)          Each
Note shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 

THIS NOTE
IS ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 1271 ET SEQ. OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE OF 1986, AS AMENDED. A
HOLDER MAY OBTAIN THE ISSUE PRICE, AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT, ISSUE DATE, AND YIELD TO MATURITY FOR THIS NOTE BY SUBMITTING
A WRITTEN REQUEST FOR SUCH INFORMATION TO THE ISSUERS AT THE FOLLOWING ADDRESS: 405 PARK AVENUE, 15TH FLOOR, NEW YORK, NY 10022,
ATTENTION: CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER.

 

(f)          Any
Note or Common Stock issued upon the conversion or exchange of a Note that is repurchased or owned by any Affiliate of the Issuer
(or any Person who was an Affiliate of the Issuer at any time during the three months preceding) may not be resold by such Affiliate
(or such Person, as the case may be) unless registered under the Securities Act or resold pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act in a transaction that results in such Note or Common Stock, as the case may be, no longer being
a “restricted security” (as defined under Rule 144 under the Securities Act). The Issuer shall cause any Note that
is repurchased or owned by it to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in accordance with Section 2.08.

 

(g)          All
notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders under the Notes and this Indenture
shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be the Depositary or its nominee in the
case of the Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in the Global Note shall be exercised only through the Depositary subject
to the applicable procedures of the Depositary, other than the right of a beneficial owner to exchange its beneficial interest
in a Global Note for a Physical Note during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 2.05(c). The Trustee, the
Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Conversion Agent and any agent of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Conversion
Agent shall be entitled to rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depositary with respect
to its members, participants and any beneficial owners. Subject to the exceptions set forth in the second preceding sentence, the
Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Conversion Agent and any agent of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar
and the Conversion Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the registered Holder
of any Global Note for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Note (including the payment of principal and interest
and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Note)
as the sole holder of such Global Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Trustee, the
Paying Agent, the Registrar or the Conversion Agent and/or and any agent of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or the
Conversion Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts or omissions of the Depositary with respect to such Global
Note, for the records of any such depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any
such Global Note, for any transactions between the Depositary and any participant in the Depositary or between or among the Depositary,
any such participant in the Depositary and/or any Holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note, or for any transfers
of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

Section 2.06.         Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case any Note shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer in its
discretion may execute, and upon Issuer Order to authenticate a new Note the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed by the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note, bearing a registration number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange
and substitution for the mutilated Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every
case the applicant for a substituted Note shall furnish to the Issuer, to the Trustee and, if applicable, to such authenticating
agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless 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 Issuer, 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 Issuer and, if applicable, such authenticating agent may require. No service charge shall be imposed
by the Issuer, the Trustee, the Note Registrar, any co-Note Registrar or the Paying Agent upon the issuance of any substitute Note,
but the Issuer may require a Holder to pay a sum sufficient to cover any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax required
in connection therewith as a result of the name of the Holder of the new substitute Note being different from the name of the Holder
of the old Note that became mutilated or was destroyed, lost or stolen. 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 Issuer 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 Issuer, to the Trustee and, if
applicable, to such authenticating agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless for
any loss, liability, cost or expense caused by or connected with such substitution, and, in every case of destruction, loss or
theft, evidence satisfactory to the Issuer, the Trustee and, if applicable, any Paying Agent or Conversion Agent evidence of their
satisfaction 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 Issuer, 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) the 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, payment,
redemption, 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, payment,
redemption, conversion or repurchase of negotiable instruments or other securities without their surrender.

 

    	39

    	 

    

 

Section 2.07.         Temporary
Notes. Pending the preparation of Physical Notes, the Issuer may execute and the Trustee or an authenticating agent appointed
by the Trustee shall, upon written request of the Issuer, authenticate and deliver printed temporary Notes. 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 Issuer. Every such temporary Note shall
be executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Trustee or such authenticating agent upon the same conditions and in substantially
the same manner, and with the same effect, as the Physical Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer shall execute and deliver
to the Trustee or such authenticating agent Physical Notes (other than any Global Note) and thereupon any or all temporary Notes
(other than any Global Note) may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at each office or agency maintained by the Issuer pursuant
to Section 4.08 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 Issuer at its own expense and without
any charge therefor. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits and subject
to the same limitations under the Indenture as Physical Notes authenticated and delivered hereunder.

 

Section 2.08.         Cancellation
of Notes Paid, Converted, Etc. The Issuer shall cause all Notes surrendered for the purpose of payment, repurchase, redemption,
registration of transfer or exchange or conversion, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee (including any of the Issuer’s
agents, Subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates), to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. All Notes delivered to the Trustee
shall be canceled promptly by it, and no Notes shall be authenticated in exchange thereof except as expressly permitted by any
of the provisions of the 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 Issuer, at the Issuer’s written request in
a Issuer Order.

 

Section 2.09.         CUSIP
Numbers. The Issuer 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 Issuer shall promptly
notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

 

Section 2.10.         Additional
Notes; Repurchases. The Issuer may, without the consent of the Holders and notwithstanding Section 2.01, reopen the Indenture
and issue additional Notes hereunder with the same terms as the Notes initially issued hereunder (other than differences in the
issue price and interest accrued prior to the issue date of such additional Notes) in an unlimited aggregate principal amount;
provided that if any such additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes initially issued hereunder for U.S. federal income
tax purposes, such additional Notes shall have a separate CUSIP number. Prior to the issuance of any such additional Notes, the
Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee a Issuer 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 17.05, as the Trustee shall
reasonably request; provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall impose an obligation on the Trustee
to so require such documents to cover any additional matters. In addition, the Issuer may, to the extent permitted by law, and
directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Issuer), repurchase Notes in the open market or
otherwise, whether by the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties
to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Issuer shall cause any Notes so repurchased (other
than Notes repurchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation in
accordance with Section 2.08.

 

    	40

    	 

    

 

Section 2.11.         Authenticating
Agent. So long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding there may be an Authenticating Agent for any or all such Notes which
the Trustee shall have the right to appoint. Said Authenticating Agent shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate
Notes issued upon exchange, transfer or partial redemption thereof, and Notes so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. All references
in this Indenture to the authentication of Notes by the Trustee shall be deemed to include authentication by an Authenticating
Agent for such series. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Issuer and shall be a corporation that has a combined
capital and surplus, as most recently reported or determined by it, sufficient under the laws of any jurisdiction under which it
is organized or in which it is doing business to conduct a trust business, and that is otherwise authorized under such laws to
conduct such business and is subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities. If at any time any Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with these provisions, it shall resign immediately. Any Authenticating Agent may
at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Issuer. The Trustee may at any time (and upon
request by the Issuer shall) terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating
Agent and to the Issuer. Upon resignation, termination or cessation of eligibility of any Authenticating Agent, the Trustee may
appoint an eligible successor Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Issuer. Any successor Authenticating Agent, upon acceptance
of its appointment hereunder, shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder as if originally
named as an Authenticating Agent pursuant hereto.

 

Section 2.12.         Additional
Amounts. All payments to be made in respect of the Notes and Guarantees shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction
or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, except to the extent such Taxes are imposed by applicable law. In the event that
any Taxes are required by applicable law to be deducted or withheld from any payment required to be made in respect of the Notes,
the Guarantees or otherwise under this Indenture, then the amount of such payment shall be increased by an amount (“Additional
Amounts”) as may be necessary such that the amount actually received by the applicable recipients or beneficial owner
of such payment in respect of such payment, after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Taxes, is an amount equal
to the amount that would have been received by the applicable recipient(s) or beneficial owner of such payment in respect of such
payment had no such Taxes (including any Taxes payable in respect of such Additional Amounts) been required to be so deducted or
withheld. Furthermore, the amount of any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted from any payment made in respect of the Notes,
the Guarantees or otherwise under this Indenture shall be withheld or deducted from such payment and paid to the taxing authority
imposing such Taxes in accordance with applicable law. Together with every payment made under this Indenture requiring the withholding
of any Taxes, the Issuer shall furnish to the Trustee a statement of the withholding being made, if any, in the form of a debit
notice on account of tax withholding or other similar document which evidences that the withholding was duly made. As promptly
as practicable thereafter, the Issuer shall provide the Trustee documentation evidencing payment of Taxes in respect of which the
Issuer has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Holders or any Paying Agent
upon request.

 

    	41

    	 

    

 

Notwithstanding
the preceding sentences, no such Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of:

 

(1)         any
Tax assessed or imposed by reason of any present or former connection between the applicable recipient or beneficial owner of such
payment and the United States, including such applicable recipient or beneficial owner having a permanent establishment in the
United States, being organized under the laws of the United States or being an actual or deemed resident of the United States (other
than solely as a result of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of a Note or a beneficial interest therein, the enforcement
of rights under a Note or any Guarantee or the receipt of any payment in respect thereof under a Note or any Guarantee);

 

(2)         any
estate, inheritance, gift, personal property, sales, use, excise, transfer or other similar Tax imposed with respect to such payment;

 

(3)         any
such Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the applicable recipient or beneficial owner of such payment
to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement to the extent (a) such
compliance is required by applicable law or an applicable treaty as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate
of deduction or withholding of, such Taxes and (b) at least 30 days before the first payment date with respect to which the obligor
with respect to a payment shall apply this clause (3), such obligor shall have notified such recipient in writing that such recipient
will be required to comply with such requirement;

 

(4)         any
such Taxes required to be withheld by any Paying Agent from any payment, if such Tax results from the presentation of such Note
for payment (where presentation is required) and the payment can be made in a commercially reasonable manner without such withholding
by the presentation of such Note to any other Paying Agent with respect to the Notes;

 

(5)         any
Note presented for payment (where presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant payment is first made available
for payment to the applicable recipient (except to the extent that such recipient would have been entitled to Additional Amounts
had the Note been presented during such 30-day period);

 

(6)         any
Tax payable other than by withholding or deduction;

 

(7)         any
withholding Tax imposed under FATCA; or

 

(8)         any
combination of the circumstances described in clauses (1) through (7), nor will any Additional Amounts be paid with respect to
any payment to a recipient who is a fiduciary or partnership or any Person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment
to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner
would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been in the place
of such recipient.

 

    	42

    	 

    

 

In addition, the
Issuer shall pay any and all Other Taxes imposed by the relevant taxing authority imposing such Other Taxes in accordance with
applicable law.

 

The obligation
of the Issuer to pay Additional Amounts will survive the repayment of the Notes and the sale or transfer of the Notes (or beneficial
interests therein) by any investor.

 

For purposes of
the provisions described in this Section 2.12, the term “applicable recipient” means the direct nominee of any beneficial
owner of the relevant Note, which holds such beneficial owner’s interest in such Note.

 

In the event that
after the Issue Date there has been any change with respect to any Taxes required by applicable law to be deducted or withheld
from any payment required to be made in respect of the Notes or otherwise under this Indenture causing a change in the Additional
Amounts payable, at least thirty (30) days prior to the first date of payment of interest on the Notes and at least thirty (30)
days prior to each date, if any, of payment of principal or interest thereafter the Issuer shall furnish the Trustee and each Paying
Agent with an Officers’ Certificate (but only if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in any previously
delivered Officers’ Certificate) instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent as to whether such payment of principal of
or any interest on such Notes shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any tax, duty, assessment or
other governmental charge. If any such deduction or withholding shall be required then such certificate shall specify the amount,
if any, required to be deducted or withheld on such payment to the relevant recipient, and the Issuer shall pay or cause to be
paid to the Trustee or such Paying Agent Additional Amounts, if any, required by this Section 2.12. The Issuer agrees to indemnify

of this Section 4.01:

 

(i)          that
it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price,
if applicable) of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes;

 

(ii)         that
it will give the Trustee prompt notice of any failure by the Issuer to make any payment of the principal (including the Fundamental

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 Issuer
shall, on or before each due date of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued
and unpaid interest on, the Notes, deposit with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay such principal (including the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) or accrued and unpaid interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Issuer
will promptly notify the Trustee of any failure to take such action; provided that if such deposit is made on the due date,
such deposit must be received by the Paying Agent by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date.

 

(b)          If

consideration due upon conversion of any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (including the Fundamental
Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), interest or consideration due upon conversion has become due and payable shall be paid
to the Issuer on request of the Issuer contained in an Officers’ Certificate, or (if then held by the Issuer) shall be discharged
from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment
thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money and shares of Common Stock, and
all liability of the Issuer 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 Issuer cause to be published once, in

is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of Section 4.09, the Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, (x) at
the time the proposed Indebtedness is incurred, classify all or a portion of that item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence
under either the first paragraph of Section 4.09 or under such category of Permitted Debt, as the case, may be, (y) reclassify
at a later date all or a portion of that or any other item of Indebtedness as being or having been incurred in any manner that
complies with this Section 4.09 (so long as the Indebtedness being reclassified could have been incurred under the first paragraph
of Section 4.09 or under such category of Permitted Debt, in each case on the date of its incurrence) and (z) elect to comply with
this Section 4.09 and the applicable definitions in any order.

Section 6.01.         [Intentionally
Omitted.]

 

Section 6.02.         Events
of Default. Each of the following events shall be an “Event of Default” with respect to the Notes:

 

(a)          default
in any payment of interest on any Note when due and payable, and the default continues for a period of 30 days;

 

(b)          default
in the payment of principal of any Note when due and payable on the Maturity Date, upon any required repurchase, upon declaration
of acceleration or otherwise;

 

(c)          failure
by the Issuer to comply with its obligation to convert the Notes in accordance with this Indenture upon exercise of a Holder’s
conversion right, and such default is not cured within five Business Days;

 

(d)          failure
by the Issuer to issue a Fundamental Change Issuer Notice in accordance with Section 15.02(c), and such failure is not cured within

(e)          failure
by the Issuer to comply with its obligations under Article 11;

 

(f)          failure

then outstanding has been received by the Issuer to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements contained in the Notes
or the Indenture;

 

(g)          default
by the Issuer or any Specified Subsidiary (a) under the Credit Facilities or (b) with respect to any mortgage, agreement or other
instrument under which there may be outstanding, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any indebtedness for money borrowed
in excess of $28,750,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) in the aggregate of the Issuer and/or any such Specified Subsidiary,
whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created (i) resulting in such indebtedness becoming or being declared
due and payable or (ii) constituting a failure to pay the principal or interest of any such debt when due and payable at its stated
maturity, upon required repurchase, upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise;

 

(h)          a
final judgment for the payment of $28,750,000 (or its foreign currency equivalent) or more (excluding any amounts covered by insurance)
rendered against the Issuer or any Specified Subsidiary, which judgment is not discharged or stayed within 60 days after (i) the
date on which the right to appeal thereof has expired if no such appeal has commenced, or (ii) the date on which all rights to
appeal have been extinguished;

 

    	67

    	 

    

 

(i)          the
Issuer or any Specified Subsidiary shall commence a voluntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other
relief with respect to the Issuer or any such Specified 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 Issuer or any such Specified 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

 

(j)          an
involuntary case or other proceeding shall be commenced against the Issuer or any Specified Subsidiary seeking liquidation, reorganization
or other relief with respect to the Issuer or such Specified 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 Issuer or such Specified Subsidiary or any substantial part of its property, and such involuntary case or other
proceeding shall remain undismissed and unstayed for a period of 90 consecutive days.

 

Section 6.03.         Acceleration;
Rescission and Annulment. If 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 6.02(i) or Section 6.02(j) with respect to the Issuer or any
of its Specified 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 Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), may declare 100% of the principal of,
and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall
become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable, anything contained in the Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary
notwithstanding. If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.02(i) or Section 6.02(j) with respect to the Issuer or any of its
Specified Subsidiaries occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all Notes
shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable.

 

The immediately
preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been
so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered
as hereinafter provided, the Issuer shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay installments of accrued
and unpaid interest upon all Notes and the principal of any and all Notes that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration
(with interest on overdue installments of accrued and unpaid interest to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable
under applicable law, and on such principal at the rate borne by the Notes plus one percent at such time) and amounts due
to the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.07, and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of
competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default under the Indenture, other than the nonpayment of the principal
of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on Notes that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, shall have been cured,
waived or otherwise remedied pursuant to Section 6.10, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding
sentence) the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, by written notice to the Issuer
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 the Indenture; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any
subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from
(i) the nonpayment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid
interest on, any Notes, (ii) a failure to repurchase any Notes when required or (iii) a failure to pay or deliver, as the case
may be, the consideration due upon conversion of the Notes.

 

    	68

    	 

    

 

Section 6.04.         Additional
Interest. Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture or in the Notes to the contrary, to the extent the Issuer elects, the sole
remedy for an Event of Default relating to (i) the failure by the Issuer to file with the Trustee pursuant to Section 314(a)(1)
of the Trust Indenture Act any documents or reports that the Issuer is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section
13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or (ii) the Issuer’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 4.03(a),
shall after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Notes
at a rate equal to (a) 0.25% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for the first 90 days of the 180-day period
during which such Event of Default is continuing beginning on, and including, the date on which such an Event of Default first
occurs and (b) 0.50% per annum of the principal amount of the Notes outstanding for the last 90 days of such 180-day period as
long as such Event of Default is continuing. If the Issuer so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner
and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Notes. On the 181st day after such Event of Default (if the Event of
Default relating to the Issuer’s failure to file is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Notes shall be immediately
subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.03. In the event the Issuer does not elect to pay Additional Interest following
an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 6.04 or the Issuer elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional
Interest when due, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 6.03.

 

In order
to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first 180 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described
in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Issuer must notify all Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Paying Agent of such
election prior to the beginning of such 180-day period. Unless and until a Responsible Officer receives such notice at the Corporate
Trust Office, the Trustee may assume without inquiry that no Additional Interest is payable. The Trustee shall not at any time
be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of Notes to determine the Additional Interest, or with respect to the nature,
extent, or calculation of the amount of Additional Interest owed, or with respect to the method employed in such calculation of
the Additional Interest. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Notes shall be immediately subject to acceleration as
provided in Section 6.03.

 

    	69

    	 

    

 

Section 6.05.         Payments
of Notes on Default; Suit Therefor. If an Event of Default described in clause (a) or (b) of Section 6.02 shall have occurred,
the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, the whole amount
then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, if any, with interest on any 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 7.07. If the Issuer shall fail to pay such amounts forthwith upon
such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection
of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Issuer
or any other obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out
of the property of the Issuer 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 Issuer 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 Issuer
or such other obligor, the property of the Issuer or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative
to the Issuer or such other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer 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 6.05, shall be entitled
and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal
and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Notes, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs
of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee,
its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer 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 reasonable compensation, expenses, advances,
and disbursements, including agent’s and counsel’s fees, and including any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section
7.07; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby
authorized by each of the Holders to make such payments to the Trustee, as administrative expenses, and, in the event that the
Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for reasonable
compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements, including agent’s and counsel’s fees, and including any other amounts
due to the Trustee under Section 7.07, incurred by it up to the date of such distribution. To the extent that such payment of reasonable
compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment
of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and
other property that the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any
plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

 

    	70

    	 

    

 

Nothing herein
contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan
of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting such Holder or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize
the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

 

All rights
of action and of asserting claims under the Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Notes, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding
instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents
and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes.

 

In any proceedings
brought by the Trustee (and in any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of the 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 the Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned
because of any waiver pursuant to Section 6.10 or any rescission and annulment pursuant to Section 6.03 or for any other reason
or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Issuer, 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 Issuer, the Holders and the Trustee shall continue as though no such proceeding had been
instituted.

 

Section 6.06.         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 following order, 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 7.07;

 

Second,
in case the principal of the outstanding Notes shall not have become due and be unpaid, to the payment of interest on, and any
cash due upon conversion of, the Notes in default in the order of the date due of the payments of such interest and cash due upon
conversion, as the case may be, with interest (to the extent that such interest has been collected by the Trustee) upon such overdue
payments at the rate borne by the Notes at such time, such payments to be made ratably to the Persons entitled thereto;

 

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

 

    	71

    	 

    

 

Fourth,
to the payment of the remainder, if any, to the Issuer.

 

Section 6.07.         Proceedings
by Holders. Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal (including, if applicable, the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price) or interest when due, or the right to receive payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, no Holder of
any Note shall have any right by virtue of or by availing of any provision of the Indenture to institute any suit, action or proceeding
in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator,
custodian or other similar official, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless:

 

(a)          such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein
provided;

 

(b)          Holders
of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding shall have made written request upon the Trustee to
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 satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense
to be incurred therein or thereby;

 

(d)          the
Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of 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 of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding within such 60-day period pursuant to
Section 6.10,

 

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 the 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 the 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 6.07,
each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 

    	72

    	 

    

 

Notwithstanding
any other provision of the Indenture and any provision of any Note, the right of any Holder to receive payment or delivery, as
the case may be, of (x) the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable) of, (y) accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on, and (z) the consideration due upon conversion of, such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed
or provided for in such Note or in the Indenture, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as
the case may be, on or after such respective dates against the Issuer shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of
such Holder.

 

Section 6.08.         Proceedings
by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default, the Trustee may in its discretion (and subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01
and 7.07) proceed to protect and enforce the rights vested in it by the 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 the Indenture or in aid of the exercise
of any power granted in the Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by the Indenture
or by law.

 

Section 6.09.         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 the Indenture, and no delay or omission of
the Trustee or of any Holder of any of the Notes to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall
impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence
therein; and, subject to the provisions of Section 6.07, 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 6.10.         Direction
of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Holders. The Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of
the Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 shall have the right to direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee
with respect to the Notes; provided, however, that (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule
of law or with the Indenture, (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent with
such direction, and (c) the Trustee may demand security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it in accordance with Sections
7.01 and 7.03. The Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that it determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other
Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes at the time outstanding determined in accordance with Section 8.04 may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive
any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except (i) a default in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, on, or the principal (including any Fundamental Change Repurchase Price) of, the Notes when due that has not been cured
pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, (ii) a failure by the Issuer to pay or deliver, as the case may be, 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. Upon any such waiver the Issuer, 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 6.10, said Default or Event of Default shall for all purposes
of the Notes and the 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.

 

    	73

    	 

    

 

Section 6.11.         Notice
of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence and continuance of a Default of which the Trustee has notice
or knowledge, mail to all Holders as the names and addresses of such Holders appear upon the Note Register, notice of such default,
unless such Default shall have been cured or waived before the giving of such notice; provided that, except in the case
of a Default in the payment of the principal of (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price, if applicable), or accrued
and unpaid interest on, any of the Notes or a Default in the payment or delivery of the consideration due upon conversion, the
Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good
faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders.

 

Section 6.12.         Undertaking
to Pay Costs. All parties to the 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 the 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 6.12 (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, if applicable) 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.         Certain
Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee.

 

(a)          The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes and after the curing of all Events of Default
with respect to the Notes that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with respect to the Notes such duties and only such
duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the
Trustee. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred (that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall
exercise with respect to Notes 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 man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

 

    	74

    	 

    

 

(b)          No
provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

 

(1)         prior
to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Notes and after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default
with respect to that series that may have occurred: the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall with respect to the Notes be
determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture, and the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to the Notes 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 in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee,
the Trustee may with respect to the Notes 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 provision 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 requirement
of this Indenture;

 

(2)         the
Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the
Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

 

(3)         the
Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
direction of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding relating to the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to the Notes; and

 

(4)         None
of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable
ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Indenture
or adequate indemnity against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.

 

Section 7.02.         [Intentionally
Omitted]

 

Section 7.03.         Certain
Rights of Trustee.

 

Except as
otherwise provided in Section 7.01:

 

    	75

    	 

    

 

(a)          The
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, security or other paper or document believed by it 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 Issuer mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution or an
instrument signed in the name of the Issuer, by the President or any Vice President and by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary
or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer thereof (unless other evidence in respect thereof is specifically prescribed herein);

 

(c)          The
Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon;

 

(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 reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred
therein or thereby.

 

(e)          The
Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized
or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

 

(f)          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, consent, order, approval, bond, security, or other papers or documents, unless requested
in writing so to do by the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes affected thereby (determined
as provided in Section 8.04); provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses
or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably
assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory
to it against such costs, expenses or liabilities as a condition to so proceeding. The expense of every such examination shall
be paid by the Issuer or, if paid by the Trustee, shall be repaid by the Issuer upon demand; and

 

(g)          The
Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents
or attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed
with due care by it hereunder.

 

(h)          The
Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, other than a failure
by the Company to make any payment on the Notes when due, unless (i) written notice of such default or Event of Default from the
Company or any Holder is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such
notice references the Notes and this Indenture or (ii) a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof.

 

    	76

    	 

    

 

Section 7.04.         Trustee
Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance or Notes.

 

(a)          The
recitals contained herein and in the Notes shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility
for the correctness of the same.

 

(b)          The
Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes.

 

(c)          The
Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Issuer of any of the Notes or of the proceeds of such Notes,
or for the use or application of any moneys paid over by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or established
pursuant to Section 2.01, or for the use or application of any moneys received by any paying agent other than the Trustee.

 

(d)          The
Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or investigate the Company’s compliance with or breach of, or cause to be performed
or observed, any representation, warranty or covenant, or agreement of any Person, other than the Trustee, made in this Indenture.

 

Section 7.05.         May
Hold Notes.

 

The Trustee
or any paying 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 Trustee, paying agent or Note Registrar.

 

Section 7.06.         Moneys
Held in Trust.

 

All moneys
received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were
received, but 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 moneys received by it hereunder except such as it may agree with the Issuer to pay thereon.

 

Section 7.07.         Compensation
and Reimbursement.

 

(a)          The
Issuer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such reasonable compensation (which shall
not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), as the Issuer and the Trustee
may from time to time agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the
exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee, and, except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Issuer will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred
or made by the Trustee (as trustee and in other capacity hereunder) in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its
employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or willful misconduct. The Issuer also
covenants to indemnify the Trustee in all its capacities under the Indenture (and its officers, agents, directors and employees)
for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of
the Trustee and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust or this Indenture or in any
other capacity under the Indenture, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability in the
premises or any claim asserted against it by a party to this Indenture.

 

    	77

    	 

    

 

(b)          The
obligations of the Issuer under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses,
disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture and the earlier resignation or removal or the Trustee. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien
prior to that of the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for
the benefit of the Holders of particular Notes. Without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable
law, when the Trustee and its agents and any authenticating agent incur expenses or render services after an Event of Default specified
in Section 6.02 occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration
under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws.

 

Section 7.08.         Reliance
on Officers’ Certificate.

 

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 suffering or omitting to take any action hereunder,
such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or 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 certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant
to the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith
thereof.

 

Section 7.09.         Disqualification;
Conflicting Interests.

 

If the Trustee
has or shall acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the
Trustee and the Issuer shall in all respects comply with the provisions of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, subject to
the penultimate paragraph thereof.

 

Section 7.10.         Corporate
Trustee Required; Eligibility.

 

There shall
at all times be a Trustee with respect to the Notes issued hereunder which shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or any State or Territory thereof or of the District of Columbia, or a
corporation or other Person permitted to act as trustee by the Commission, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least 100 million U.S. dollars ($100,000,000), and subject to supervision
or examination by Federal, State, Territorial, or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition
at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes
of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The Issuer may not, nor may any Person directly or indirectly controlling,
controlled by, or under common control with the Issuer, serve as Trustee. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified
in Section 7.11.

 

    	78

    	 

    

 

Section 7.11.         Resignation
and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

 

(a)          The
Trustee or any successor hereafter appointed, may at any time resign with respect to the Notes by giving written notice thereof
to the Issuer and by transmitting notice of resignation by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Holders of such series, as
their names and addresses appear upon the Note Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Issuer shall promptly appoint
a successor trustee with respect to the Notes by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the Board of Directors,
one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee. If no successor
trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation,
the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee with respect
to the Notes, or any Holder of that series 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 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 one of the following shall occur:

 

(1)         the
Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 7.09 after written request therefor by the Issuer or by any Holder
who has been a bona fide holder of the Notes for at least six months; or

 

(2)         the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.10 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Issuer or by any such Holder; or

 

(3)         the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or commence a voluntary bankruptcy proceeding,
or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or consented to, 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 any
such case, the Issuer may remove the Trustee with respect to all Notes 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, unless, in the case of a failure to comply with Section 7.09, the Trustee’s duty
to resign is stayed as provided in the penultimate paragraph of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, any Holder who has been
a bona fide holder of a Notes for at least six months may, on behalf of that holder and all others similarly situated, petition
any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. Such court may thereupon
after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee.

 

    	79

    	 

    

 

(c)          The
holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee with
respect to such series by so notifying the Trustee and the Issuer and may appoint a successor Trustee for such series with the
consent of the Issuer.

 

(d)          Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the Notes pursuant to any of the provisions
of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 7.12.

 

(e)          Any
successor trustee appointed pursuant to this Section may be appointed with respect to the Notes, and at any time there shall be
only one Trustee with respect to the Notes.

 

Section 7.12.         Acceptance
of Appointment By Successor.

 

(a)          In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to all Notes, every such successor trustee so appointed shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Issuer and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request
of the Issuer or the successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges and all outstanding amounts under
Section 7.07, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor trustee all the rights, powers, and trusts of the
retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor trustee all property and money held by such retiring
Trustee hereunder.

 

(b)          In
case of the appointment hereunder of a successor trustee with respect to the Notes, the Issuer, the retiring Trustee and each successor
trustee with respect to the Notes shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto wherein each successor trustee shall
accept such appointment and which

 

(1)         shall
contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor trustee all
the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor
trustee relates,

 

(2)         shall
contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of
the retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes as to which the retiring Trustee is not retiring shall continue to be vested in
the retiring Trustee, and

 

    	80

    	 

    

 

(3)         shall
add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration
of the trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall
constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust, that each such Trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder
separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered by any other such Trustee and that no Trustee shall be responsible
for any act or failure to act on the part of any other Trustee hereunder; and upon the execution and delivery of such supplemental
indenture the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein, such retiring
Trustee shall with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates have no further responsibility
for the exercise of rights and powers or for the performance of the duties and obligations vested in the Trustee under this Indenture,
and each such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates;
but, on request of the Issuer or any successor trustee, such retiring Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor
trustee, to the extent contemplated by such supplemental indenture, the property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder
with respect to the Notes to which the appointment of such successor trustee relates.

 

(c)          Upon
request of any such successor trustee, the Issuer shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in
and confirming to such successor trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section,
as the case may be.

 

(d)          No
successor trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be qualified
and eligible under this Article.

 

(e)          Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Issuer shall transmit notice of the succession
of such trustee hereunder by mail, first class postage prepaid, to the Holders, as their names and addresses appear upon the Note
Register. If the Issuer fails to transmit such notice within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee,
the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be transmitted at the expense of the Issuer.

 

Section 7.13.         Merger,
Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

 

Any corporation
into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust business
of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be qualified under the provisions
of Section 7.09 and eligible under the provisions of Section 7.10, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In case any Notes shall have been
authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating
Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee

Concerning the Holders

 

Section 8.01.         Evidence
of Action by Holders.

 

Whenever
in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a majority or 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 majority or specified percentage of
that series have joined therein may be evidenced by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by such
holders of Notes in Person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing. If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of any series
any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, the Issuer may, at its option, as evidenced
by an Officers’ Certificate, fix in advance a record date for such series for the determination of Holders entitled to give
such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, but the Issuer shall have no obligation
to do so. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
may be given before or after the record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on the record date shall
be deemed to be Holders for the purposes of determining whether Holders of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Notes of that
series have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of the record date; provided, however, that no such authorization,
agreement or consent by such Holders on the record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to
the provisions of this Indenture not later than six months after the record date.

 

Section 8.02.         Proof
of Execution by Holders.

 

Subject to
the provisions of Section 7.01, proof of the execution of any instrument by a Holder (such proof will not require notarization)
or his agent or proxy and proof of the holding by any Person of any of the Notes shall be sufficient if made in the following manner:

 

(a)          The
fact and date of the execution by any such Person of any instrument may be proved in any reasonable manner acceptable to the Trustee.

 

(b)          The
ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Register of such Notes or by a certificate of the Note Registrar thereof.

 

(c)          The
Trustee may require such additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.

 

    	82

    	 

    

 

Section 8.03.         Who
May be Deemed Owners.

 

Prior to
the due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Note Registrar
may deem and treat the Person in whose name such Note shall be registered upon the books of the Issuer as the absolute owner of
such Note (whether or not such Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone
other than the Note Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium and Additional
Amounts, if any) and (subject to Section 2.03) interest on such Note and for all other purposes; and neither the Issuer nor the
Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Note Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

Section 8.04.         Certain
Notes Owned by Issuer Disregarded.

 

In determining
whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount of Notes have concurred in any direction, consent of waiver under
this Indenture, the Notes that are owned by the Issuer or any other obligor on the Notes or by any Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under common control with the Issuer or any other obligor on Notes shall be disregarded and deemed
not to be Outstanding for the purpose of any such determination, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Notes that the Trustee actually knows are so owned
shall be so disregarded. The Notes so owned that have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding for the purposes
of this Section, if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect
to such Notes and that the pledgee is not a Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect
common control with the Issuer or any such other obligor. In 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.

 

Section 8.05.         Actions
Binding on Future Holders.

 

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 majority or 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, 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 Note issued in exchange therefor, on registration of
transfer thereof or in place thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Note. Any
action taken by the holders of the majority or percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Notes specified in this Indenture
in connection with such action shall be conclusively binding upon the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of all the Notes.

of Meetings by Trustee. The Trustee may at any time call a meeting of Holders to take any action specified in Section 9.01,
to be held at such time and at such place as the Trustee shall determine. Notice of every meeting of the Holders, setting forth
the time and the place of such meeting and in general terms the action proposed to be taken at such meeting and the establishment
of any record date pursuant to Section 8.01, shall be mailed to Holders of such Notes at their addresses as they shall appear on
the Note Register. Such notice shall also be mailed to the Issuer. Such notices shall be mailed not less than 20 nor more than
90 days prior to the date fixed for the meeting.

 

Any meeting

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

 

Section 9.03.         Call

10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, shall have requested the Trustee to call a meeting of Holders,
by written request setting forth in reasonable detail the action proposed to be taken at the meeting, and the Trustee shall not
have mailed the notice of such meeting within 20 days after receipt of such request, then the Issuer or such Holders may determine
the time and the place for such meeting and may call such meeting to take any action authorized in Section 9.01, by mailing notice

counsel and any representatives of the Issuer and its counsel.

 

Section 9.05.         Regulations.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Indenture, the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable

The Trustee
shall, by an instrument in writing, appoint a temporary chairman of the meeting, unless the meeting shall have been called by the

The chairman of the meeting shall have no right to vote other than by virtue of Notes held by it or instruments in writing as aforesaid
duly designating it 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

for or against any resolution and who shall make and file with 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 aggregate 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 chairman and secretary of the meeting and one of the duplicates shall be delivered to the Issuer 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

Supplemental Indentures

 

Section 10.01.         Supplemental
Indentures Without Consent of Holders. The Issuer and the Trustee, at the Issuer’s expense, may from time to time and
at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for one or more of the following purposes:

 

(a)          to
cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency that does not adversely affect Holders of the Notes;

Section 14.02, and make such related changes to the terms of the Notes to the extent expressly required by Section 14.07;

conform the provisions of the Indenture or the Notes to the description of the convertible notes in the Commitment Letter; or

 

(i)          evidence
and provide for the appointment under the Indenture of a successor trustee.

 

Upon the
written request of the Issuer, the Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Issuer in the execution of any such supplemental
indenture, 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 the Indenture or otherwise.

 

    	86

    	 

    

 

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

 

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

 

(a)          reduce
the amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment;

 

(b)          reduce
the rate of or extend the stated time for payment of interest on any Note;

 

(c)          reduce
the principal of or extend the Maturity Date of any Note;

 

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

 

(e)          reduce
the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price of any Note or amend or modify in any manner adverse to the Holders the Issuer’s
obligation to make such payments, whether through an amendment or waiver of provisions in the covenants, definitions or otherwise;

any Note payable in a currency, or at a place of payment, other than that stated in the Note;

(i)          impair
the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal and interest on such Holder’s Notes on or after the due dates therefor
or to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to such Holder’s Notes; or

 

(j)          make
any change in this Article 10 that requires each Holder’s consent or in the waiver provisions in Section 6.03 or Section
6.10.

 

Upon the
written request of the Issuer, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders as aforesaid and subject
to Section 10.05, the Trustee shall join with the Issuer in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental
indenture affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee
may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such supplemental indenture.

 

    	87

    	 

    

 

Holders do
not need under this Section 10.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture. It shall be sufficient
if such Holders approve the substance thereof. After any such supplemental indenture becomes effective, the Issuer 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 or of Section 11.02, this Indenture shall, with
respect to such series, be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations
of rights, obligations, duties and immunities under this Indenture of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of Notes affected
thereby 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.       Notes
Affected by Supplemental Indentures.

 

Notes affected
by a supplemental indenture, authenticated and delivered after the execution of such supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions
of this Article or of Section 11.02, may bear a notation in form approved by the Issuer, provided such form meets the requirements
of any exchange upon which such series may be listed, as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer
shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Issuer, to any modification
of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the Trustee and
delivered in exchange for the Notes then Outstanding.

 

Section 10.05.       Execution
of Supplemental Indentures.

 

Upon the
request of the Issuer, accompanied by its Board Resolutions authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon
the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Holders required to consent thereto as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join
with the Issuer in the execution of such supplemental indenture unless such supplemental indenture affects the Trustee’s
own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion but shall not
be obligated to enter into such supplemental indenture. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, may receive an
Officers’ Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant to
this Article is authorized or permitted by, and conforms to, the terms of this Article and that it is proper for the Trustee under
the provisions of this Article to join in the execution thereof; provided, however, that such Officers’ Certificate or Opinion
of Counsel need not be provided in connection with the execution of a supplemental indenture that establishes the terms of a series
of Notes pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.

 

    	88

    	 

    

 

Promptly
after the execution by the Issuer and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the
Issuer shall transmit (or cause the Trustee to transmit, at the expense of the Issuer) by mail, first class postage prepaid, a
notice prepared by the Issuer, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture, to the Holders of all
series affected thereby as their names and addresses appear upon the Note Register. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice,
or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

Section 11.02.       Issuer
May Consolidate, Etc. on Certain Terms. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.03, the Issuer shall not consolidate with,

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 the Indenture to be performed by the Issuer, such Successor Issuer (if not
the Issuer) shall succeed to and, except in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s properties and
assets, shall be substituted for the Issuer, with the same effect as if it had been named herein as the party of the first part.
Such Successor Issuer thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue either in its own name or in the name of the Issuer any or
all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee; and,
upon the order of such Successor Issuer instead of the Issuer and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in the 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 Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes that such Successor
Issuer 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 the Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with
the terms of the 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 “Issuer” 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 the Indenture and the Notes.

 

In case of
any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or lease, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance)
may be made in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

 

Section 11.04.      Opinion

the Trustee shall receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any such consolidation,

with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the provisions of this Article 11.

Privilege. Each Holder of a Note shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the
portion to be converted is $1,000 principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) of such Note at any time prior to the close
of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, in each case, at an initial conversion rate of the lower

Public Offering of Common Stock, 115% of the price at which the Common stock is sold to the public in such offering (subject to
adjustment as provided in this Article 14, the “Conversion Rate”) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (subject

Section 14.02.         Conversion
Procedure; Settlement Upon Conversion.

 

(a)          Subject
to this Section 14.02, Section 14.03(b) and Section 14.07(a), upon conversion of any Note, the Issuer shall pay or deliver, as
the case may be, to the converting Holder, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted, shares of Common
Stock, together with cash, if applicable, in lieu of delivering any fractional share of Common Stock in accordance with subsection
(j) of this Section 14.02 The shares of Common Stock in respect of any conversion of Notes (the “Settlement Amount”)
shall be computed as follows: the Issuer shall deliver (or cause its stock transfer agent to deliver) to the converting Holder
in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes being converted a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion
Rate in effect on the Conversion Date;

 

(b)          Subject
to Section 14.02(e), before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a Note as set forth above, such Holder shall (i)
in the case of a Global Note, comply with the procedures of the Depositary in effect at that time and (ii) in the case of a Physical
Note (1) complete, manually sign and deliver an irrevocable notice to the Conversion Agent as set forth in the Form of Notice
of Conversion (or a facsimile thereof) (a “Notice of Conversion”) at the office of the Conversion Agent and
state in writing therein the principal amount of Notes to be converted and the name or names (with addresses) in which such Holder
wishes the certificate or certificates for any shares of Common Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Conversion Obligation
to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Issuer or in blank (and accompanied by appropriate endorsement
and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent and (3) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents. The Trustee (and if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Issuer 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 Issuer in respect of such Notes and has
not validly withdrawn such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice in accordance with Section 15.03.

 

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

 

(c)          A
Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the date (the “Conversion Date”)
that the Holder has complied with the requirements set forth in subsection (b) above. Except as provided in Section 14.03 and Section
14.07 below, the Issuer shall pay or deliver, as the case may be, the consideration due in respect of the Conversion Obligation
on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. At such time as shares of Common Stock are due to
converting Holders, the Issuer shall issue or cause to be issued by its stock transfer agent, and deliver to the Conversion Agent
or to such Holder, or such Holder’s nominee or nominees, certificates or a book-entry transfer through the Depositary for
the full number of shares of Common Stock to which such Holder shall be entitled in satisfaction of the Issuer’s Conversion
Obligation. Prior to the issuance of Common Stock, the Issuer shall give the Conversion Agent notice of the number of shares of
Common Stock being so issued and the method by which the issuance shall take place. For the avoidance of doubt, neither the Conversion
Agent nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility for the issuance by the Issuer of shares of Common Stock.

 

    	91

    	 

    

 

(d)          In
case any Note shall be surrendered for partial conversion, the Issuer 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 Issuer or Trustee, with payment by the converting Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any documentary,
stamp or similar issue or 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 Issuer shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the
issue of any shares of Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such shares to be issued
in a name other than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Issuer (or if the stock certificates
are delivered by the Issuer to the Conversion Agent for further delivery to the converting Holder, the Conversion Agent) may refuse
to deliver the certificates representing the shares of Common Stock being issued in a name other than the Holder’s name until
the Trustee receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that is due by such Holder in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

 

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

 

(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 Issuer shall notify the Trustee in writing
of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the Trustee.

 

(h)          Upon
conversion, a Holder shall not receive any separate cash payment for accrued and unpaid interest, if any, except as set forth below.
The Issuer’s settlement of the full 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 relevant Conversion Date. As a result, accrued
and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the relevant Conversion Date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than
cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Notes are converted after the close of business on a Regular
Record Date, Holders of such Notes as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date will receive the full amount of interest
payable on such Notes on the corresponding Interest Payment Date notwithstanding the conversion. Notes surrendered for conversion
during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date to the open of business on the immediately following Interest
Payment Date must be accompanied by funds equal to the amount of interest payable on the Notes so converted; provided that
no such payment shall be required (1) for conversions following the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date;
(2) if the Issuer has specified a Fundamental Change Repurchase Date that is after a Regular Record Date and on or prior to the
Business Day immediately following the corresponding Interest Payment Date; or (3) to the extent of any Defaulted Amounts,
if any Defaulted Amounts exist at the time of conversion with respect to such Note. Therefore, for the avoidance of doubt, all
Holders of record on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date shall receive the full interest payment due
on the Maturity Date regardless of whether their Notes have been converted following such Regular Record Date.

 

    	92

    	 

    

 

(i)          The
Person in whose name the certificate for any shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion is registered shall be treated as
a stockholder of record as of the close of business on the relevant Conversion Date. Upon a conversion of Notes, such Person shall
no longer be a Holder of such Notes surrendered for conversion.

 

(j)          The
Issuer shall not issue any fractional share of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes and shall instead pay cash in lieu of
delivering any fractional share of Common Stock issuable upon conversion based on the Daily VWAP for the relevant Conversion Date.

 

(k)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no Holder shall be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock (taking into account any Common
Stock obtained pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, or in connection with any securities purchased thereunder) upon conversion to
the extent (but only to the extent) that such receipt would cause such converting Holder to become, directly or indirectly, a “beneficial
owner” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of
more than 9.9% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at such time (the “Limitation”). Any purported delivery
of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of Notes shall be void and have no effect to the extent (but only to the extent) that
such delivery would result in the converting Holder becoming the beneficial owner of more than the Limitation. If any delivery
of shares of Common Stock owed to a Holder upon conversion of Notes is not made, in whole or in part, as a result of the Limitation,
the Issuer’s obligation to make such delivery shall not be extinguished and the Issuer shall deliver such shares as promptly
as practicable after any such converting Holder gives notice to the Issuer that such delivery would not result in it being the
beneficial owner of more than the Limitation.

 

(l)          In
no event will the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued (taking into account any Common Stock obtained pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement, or in connection with any securities purchased thereunder) upon conversion of the Notes exceed 19.9% of
the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Issue Date (as appropriately adjusted
for share splits, share dividends, combinations, recapitalizations and the like) (the “19.9% Share Cap”), unless
the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the 19.9% Share Cap is duly approved in advance by the holders of Common Stock
in accordance with Section 312.03 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

 

(m)          In
no event will the aggregate number shares of Common Stock issued (taking into account any Common Stock obtained pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, or in connection with any securities purchased thereunder) upon conversion of the Notes exceed 24.9% of the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the issuance (the “24.9%
Share Cap”), unless the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of the 24.9% Share Cap is duly approved in advance
by FINRA.

Section 14.03.         Increased
Conversion Rate Applicable to Certain Notes Surrendered in Connection with Make-Whole Fundamental Changes. (a) If a Make-Whole
Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective prior to the Maturity Date and a Holder elects to convert its Notes in connection
with such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall, under the circumstances described below, increase the Conversion Rate
for the Notes so surrendered for conversion by a number of additional shares of Common Stock (the “Additional Shares”),
as described below. A conversion of Notes shall be deemed for these purposes to be “in connection with” such Make-Whole
Fundamental Change if the relevant Notice of Conversion is received by the Conversion Agent from, and including, the Effective
Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change up to, and including, the Business Day immediately prior to the related Fundamental Change
Repurchase Date (or, in the case of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change that would have been a Fundamental Change but for the proviso
in clause (b) of the definition thereof, the 35th Trading Day immediately following the Effective Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental
Change).

 

(b)          Upon
surrender of Notes for conversion in connection with a Make-Whole Fundamental Change pursuant to Section 14.01(b)(iii), the Issuer
shall satisfy the related Conversion Obligation in accordance with Section 14.02; provided, however, that if, at
the effective time of a Make-Whole Fundamental Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Reference
Property following such Make-Whole Fundamental Change is composed entirely of cash, for any conversion of Notes following the Effective
Date of such Make-Whole Fundamental Change, the Conversion Obligation shall be calculated based solely on the Stock Price for the
transaction and shall be deemed to be an amount of cash per $1,000 principal amount of converted Notes equal to the Conversion
Rate (including any adjustment for Additional Shares), multiplied by such Stock Price. In such event, the Conversion Obligation
shall be paid to Holders in cash on the third Business Day following the Conversion Date. The Issuer shall notify the Holders of
Notes of the Effective Date of any Make-Whole Fundamental Change and issue a press release announcing such Effective Date no later
than five Business Days after such Effective Date.

 

(c)          The
number of Additional Shares, if any, by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased shall be determined by reference to the table
below, based on the date on which the Make-Whole Fundamental Change occurs or becomes effective (the “Effective Date”)
and the price (the “Stock Price”) paid (or deemed to be paid) per share of the Common Stock in the Make-Whole
Fundamental Change. If the holders of the Common Stock receive in exchange for their Common Stock only cash in a Make-Whole Fundamental
Change described in clause (b) of the definition of Fundamental Change, the Stock Price shall be the cash amount paid per share.
Otherwise, the Stock Price shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the five Trading Day
period ending on, and including, the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date of the Make-Whole Fundamental Change.
The Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to the Stock Price, in its good faith determination, to account for any
adjustment to the Conversion Rate that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the
Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs, during such five consecutive Trading Day period.

 

    	94

    	 

    

 

(d)          The
Stock Prices set forth in the column headings of the table below shall be adjusted as of any date on which the Conversion Rate
of the Notes is otherwise adjusted. The adjusted Stock Prices shall equal the Stock Prices applicable immediately prior to such
adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such adjustment
giving rise to the Stock Price adjustment and the denominator of which is the Conversion Rate as so adjusted. The number of Additional
Shares set forth in the table below shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the Conversion Rate as set forth
in Section 14.04.

 

(e)          The
following table sets forth the number of Additional Shares by which the Conversion Rate shall be increased per $1,000 principal
amount of Notes pursuant to this Section 14.03 for each Stock Price and Effective Date set forth below:

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

 

(i)          if
the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices in the table above or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates in the table,
the number of Additional Shares shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of Additional Shares set
forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the earlier and later Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year;

 

(ii)         if
the Stock Price is greater than $35.00 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the
column headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate;
and

 

(iii)        if
the Stock Price is less than $18.42 per share (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the Stock Prices set forth in the column
headings of the table above pursuant to subsection (d) above), no Additional Shares shall be added to the Conversion Rate.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in no event shall the Conversion Rate per $1,000 principal amount of Notes exceed 56.4394 shares of Common Stock,
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.

 

    	95

    	 

    

 

Section 14.04.         Adjustment
of Conversion Rate. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Issuer if any of the following events occurs,
except that the Issuer shall not make any adjustments to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Notes participate (other than in
the case of (x) a share split or share combination or (y) a tender or exchange offer), at the same time and upon the same terms
as holders of the Common Stock and solely as a result of holding the Notes, in any of the transactions described in this Section
14.04, without having to convert their Notes, as if they held a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate,
multiplied by the principal amount (expressed in thousands) of Notes held by such Holder.

 

(a)          If,
after the Issue Date, the Issuer (A) pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its shares of capital stock in Common Stock, (B)
subdivides its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, (C) combines its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller
number of shares or (D) issues any shares of capital stock by reclassification of its Common Stock (the events set forth in clauses
(A), (B), (C) and (D) above being hereinafter referred to as the “Common Stock Events”), the Conversion Rate
shall be adjusted so that the Holder of any Note thereafter converted shall be entitled to receive the number of Common Stock that
such Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the happening of any of any Common Stock Event, had such Note
been converted immediately prior to the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution or the effective date in the case
of a subdivision, combination or reclassification. An adjustment made pursuant to this subparagraph (i) shall become effective
immediately upon the opening of business on the day next following the record date (subject to paragraph (f) below) in the case
of a dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately upon the opening of business on the day next following the
effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or reclassification.

 

(b)          If,
after the Issue Date, the Issuer issues rights, options or warrants to all holders of Common Stock entitling them (for a period
expiring within 45 days after the record date mentioned below in this subparagraph (b)) to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock
at a price per share less than the Current Market Price per share on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled
to receive such rights, options or warrants, then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted to equal the price determined by multiplying
(A) the Conversion Rate theretofore in effect by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the sum of (I) the amount of Common
Stock outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (II) the amount of additional Common Stock
offered for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights, options or warrants, and the denominator which shall be the sum of
(I) the amount of Common Stock outstanding on the close of business on the date fixed for such determination and (II) the amount
of Common Stock that the aggregate proceeds to the Issuer from the exercise of such rights, options or warrants for Common Stock
would purchase at such Current Market Price. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately upon the opening of business on
the day next following such record date (subject to paragraph (f) below). In determining whether any rights, options or warrants
entitle the holders of Common Stock to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, there shall
be taken into account any consideration received by the Issuer upon issuance and upon exercise of such rights, options or warrants,
the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error.

 

    	96

    	 

    

 

(c)          If
the Issuer distributes to all holders of its Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Issuer (other than Common Stock),
evidence of its indebtedness or assets or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those
rights and warrants referred to in and treated under paragraph (b) above) (any of the foregoing being hereinafter in this paragraph
(c) called the “Securities”), then in each case the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that it shall equal
the price determined by multiplying (A) the Conversion Rate theretofore in effect by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which shall
be the Current Market Price per share of Common Stock on the record date mentioned below, and the denominator of which shall be
the Current Market Price per Common Stock on the record date mentioned below less the then fair market value (as determined by
the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) of the portion of the shares of capital
stock or assets or cash or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or of such rights or warrants applicable to one share of Common
Stock. Such adjustment shall become effective immediately upon the opening of business on the day next following (subject to paragraph
(e) below) the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution. For the purposes of this
subparagraph (iii), the distribution of a Security, which is distributed not only to the holders of the Common Stock on the date
fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to such distribution of such Security, but also is required to be distributed
with each share of Common Stock delivered to a Person converting a Note after such determination date, shall not require an adjustment
of the Conversion Rate pursuant to this subparagraph (c); provided that on the date, if any, on which a Person converting a Note
would no longer be entitled to receive such Security with Common Stock (other than as a result of the termination of all such Securities),
a distribution of such Securities shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted as provided in this
paragraph (c) (and such day shall be deemed to be “the date fixed for the determination of the stockholders entitled to receive
such distribution” and “the record date” within the meaning of the two preceding sentences).

 

The occurrence
of a distribution or the occurrence of any other event as a result of which Holders of Notes shall not be entitled to receive rights,
including exchange rights (the “Rights”), pursuant to any stockholders protective rights agreement that may
be adopted by the Issuer as if such Holders had converted such notes into Common Stock immediately prior to the occurrence of such
distribution or event shall not be deemed a distribution of Securities for the purposes of any Conversion Rate adjustment pursuant
to this paragraph (c) or otherwise give rise to any Conversion Rate adjustment pursuant to this Section 14.04; provided, however,
that in lieu of any adjustment to the Conversion Rate as a result of any such distribution or occurrence, the Issuer shall make
provision so that Rights, to the extent issuable at the time of conversion of any Notes into Common Stock, shall issue and attach
to such Common Stock then issued upon conversion in the amount and manner and to the extent and as provided in such stockholders
protective rights agreement.

 

    	97

    	 

    

 

(d)          If,
at any time or from time to time after the Issue Date, the Issuer issues or sells any Common Stock (other than in connection with
any underwritten public offering and issuances to unaffiliated third parties for an acquisition on an arm’s-length basis)
(“Additional Shares”) for a consideration per share that is less than the Current Market Price on the Business
Day immediately preceding the earlier of the issuance or sale, or public announcement of the issuance or sale, of such Additional
Shares, then the Conversion Rate shall be reduced to an amount determined by multiplying the Conversion Rate theretofore in effect
by a fraction of which (x) the numerator equals the product of (i) the sum of (A) the total number of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issuance or sale and (B) the number of additional Common Stock issued or sold, multiplied by (ii) the
Adjustment Price, and (y) the denominator is the sum of (i) the product of (A) the number of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such issuance or sale multiplied by (B) the greater of (1) the Conversion Price theretofore in effect and (2) the
Closing Price on the date preceding the earlier of the issuance or sale or public announcement of the issuance or sale of such
Additional Shares (the greater of (1) and (2) above hereinafter referred to as the “Adjustment Price”) and (ii)
the aggregate consideration receivable by the Issuer for the total number of Common Stock so issued or sold. An adjustment made
pursuant to this subparagraph (d) shall be made on the next Business Day following the date on which any such issuance or sale
is made and shall be effective retroactively to the close of business on the date of such issuance or sale.

 

(e)          If
the Issuer becomes party to any transaction (including without limitation a merger, consolidation, self-tender offer for all or
substantially all Common Stock outstanding or recapitalization of the Common Stock but excluding any Common Stock Events (each
of the foregoing being referred to herein as a “Transaction”), in each case as a result of which Common Stock
shall be converted into the right to receive stock, securities or other property (including cash or any combination thereof), each
$1,000 of principal amount of Notes that is not redeemed or converted into the right to receive stock, securities or other property
in connection with such Transaction shall thereafter be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock, securities and
other property (including cash or any combination thereof) receivable upon the consummation of such Transaction by a holder of
that number of Common Stock into which $1,000 of principal amount of Notes was convertible immediately prior to such Transaction,
assuming such holder of Common Stock (i) is not a Person with which the Issuer consolidated or into which the Issuer merged or
which merged into the Issuer or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”),
or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person and (ii) failed to exercise his or her rights of the election, if any, as to the kind or
amount of stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction (provided that if the kind or
amount of stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction is not the same for each share
of Common Stock held immediately prior to such Transaction by other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect
of which such rights of election shall not have been exercised (“Non-Electing Share”), then for the purpose
of this paragraph (e) the kind and amount of stock, securities and other property (including cash) receivable upon such Transaction
by each Non-Electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-Electing
Shares). The Issuer shall not be a party to any Transaction unless the terms of such Transaction are consistent with the provisions
of this paragraph (e), and it shall not consent or agree to the occurrence of any Transaction until the Issuer has entered into
an agreement with the successor or purchasing entity, as the case may be, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes that will
contain provisions enabling the Holders of the Notes that remain outstanding after such Transaction to convert their Notes into
the consideration received by holders of Common Stock at the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such Transaction.
The provisions of this paragraph (e) shall similarly apply to successive Transactions.

 

    	98

    	 

    

 

(f)          Notwithstanding
this Section 14.04 or any other provision of the Indenture or the Notes, if a Conversion Rate adjustment becomes effective on any
Ex-Dividend Date, and a 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 shares of Common Stock 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 shares of Common Stock on an unadjusted basis
and participate in the related dividend, distribution or other event giving rise to such adjustment.

 

(g)          Except
as stated herein, the Issuer shall not adjust the Conversion Rate for the issuance of shares of the Common Stock or any securities
convertible into or exchangeable for shares of the Common Stock or the right to purchase shares of the Common Stock or such convertible
or exchangeable securities.

 

(h)          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 any exchange on which any of the Issuer’s securities are then listed,
the Issuer 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 Issuer’s best interest. In addition, to the extent permitted by
applicable law and subject to the applicable rules of any exchange on which any of the Issuer’s securities are then listed,
the Issuer may (but is not required to) increase the Conversion Rate to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock
or rights to purchase Common Stock in connection with a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock (or rights to acquire
shares of Common Stock) or similar event. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to either of the preceding two sentences,
the Issuer shall mail to the Holder of each Note at its last address appearing on the Note Register a notice of the increase at
least 15 days prior to the date the increased Conversion Rate takes effect, and such notice shall state the increased Conversion
Rate and the period during which it will be in effect.

 

(i)          Except
as described above in this Article 14, the Conversion Rate shall not be adjusted:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

    	99

    	 

    

 

(iv)        solely
for a change in the par value of the Common Stock or a change in the Issuer’s jurisdiction of incorporation;

 

(v)         for
accrued and unpaid interest, if any; or

 

(vi)        for
an event otherwise requiring an adjustment, as described herein if such event is not consummated.

 

(j)          All
calculations and other determinations under this Article 14 shall be made by the Issuer and shall be made to the nearest one-ten
thousandth (1/10,000th) of a share. The Issuer shall not be required to make an adjustment in the Conversion Rate unless such adjustment
would require a change of at least 1% in the Conversion Rate. However, the Issuer shall carry forward any adjustments that are
less than 1% of the Conversion Rate and make such carried forward adjustment, regardless of whether the aggregate adjustment is
less than 1%, on the Conversion Date for any Notes and on each Trading Day of any Observation Period for any converted Notes.

 

(k)          Whenever
the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Issuer shall 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. Unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee (and Conversion Agent)
shall have received such Officers’ Certificate, the Trustee (and 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 Issuer 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 the Indenture. Failure
to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

 

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

 

Section 14.05.         Adjustments
of Prices. Whenever any provision of this Indenture requires the Issuer to calculate the Last Reported Sale Prices over a span
of multiple days (including an Observation Period and the period for determining the Stock Price for purposes of a Make-Whole Fundamental
Change), the Board of Directors shall make appropriate adjustments to each to account for any adjustment to the Conversion Rate
that becomes effective, or any event requiring an adjustment to the Conversion Rate where the Ex-Dividend Date of the event occurs,
at any time during the period when the Last Reported Sale Prices are to be calculated.

Section 14.06.         Shares
to Be Fully Paid. The Issuer shall provide, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares or shares
held in treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for conversion of the Notes from time to time as such Notes are
presented for conversion (assuming that at the time of computation of such number of shares, all such Notes would be converted
by a single Holder).

 

Section 14.07.         Effect
of Recapitalizations, Reclassifications and Changes of the Common Stock.

 

(a)          In
the case of:

 

(i)          any
recapitalization, reclassification or change of the Common Stock (other than changes resulting from a subdivision or combination),

 

(ii)         any
consolidation, merger or combination involving the Issuer, or

 

(iii)        any
sale, lease or other transfer to a third party of the consolidated assets of the Issuer and the Issuer’s Subsidiaries substantially
as an entirety,

 

in each case, as a result of
which the Common Stock would be converted into, or exchanged for, stock, other securities, other property or assets (including
cash or any combination thereof) (any such event, a “Merger Event”), then, at and after the effective time of
such Merger Event, the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be changed into a right to convert such principal
amount of Notes into the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities or other property or assets (including cash or any
combination thereof) that a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate immediately prior to such
Merger Event would have owned or been entitled to receive (the “Reference Property,” with each “unit
of Reference Property” meaning the kind and amount of Reference Property that a holder of one share of Common Stock is
entitled to receive) upon such Merger Event and, prior to or at the effective time of such Merger Event, the Issuer or the successor
or purchasing Person, as the case may be, shall execute with the Trustee a supplemental indenture permitted under Section 10.01(f)
providing for such change in the right to convert each $1,000 principal amount of Notes; provided, however, that
at and after the effective time of the Merger Event (A) the Issuer shall continue to have the right to determine the form of consideration
to be paid or delivered, as the case may be, upon 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 shares
of Common Stock that the Issuer 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 shares of Common Stock
would have been entitled to receive in such Merger Event and (III) the Daily VWAP shall be calculated based on the value of
a unit of Reference Property.

 

    	101

    	 

    

 

If the Merger
Event causes the Common Stock to be converted into, or exchanged for, the right to receive more than a single type of consideration
(determined based in part upon any form of stockholder election), then (i) the Reference Property into which the Notes will be
convertible shall be deemed to be (x) the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of
Common Stock that affirmatively make such an election or (y) if no holders of Common Stock affirmatively make such an election,
the types and amounts of consideration actually received by the holders of Common Stock, and (ii) the unit of Reference Property
for purposes of the immediately preceding paragraph shall refer to the consideration referred to in clause (i) attributable to
one share of Common Stock. If the holders of the Common Stock receive only cash in such Merger Event, then for all conversions
for which the relevant Conversion Date occurs after the effective date of such Merger Event (A) the consideration due upon conversion
of each $1,000 principal amount of Notes shall be solely cash in an amount equal to the Conversion Rate in effect on the Conversion
Date (as may be increased by any Additional Shares pursuant to Section 14.03), multiplied by the price paid per share of
Common Stock in such Merger Event and (B) the Issuer shall satisfy the Conversion Obligation by paying cash to converting Holders
on the third Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. The Issuer shall notify Holders, the Trustee and
the Conversion Agent (if other than the Trustee) of such weighted average as soon as practicable after such determination is made.

 

Such supplemental
indenture described in the second immediately preceding paragraph shall provide for anti-dilution and other adjustments that shall
be as nearly equivalent as is possible to the adjustments provided for in this Article 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 repurchase rights set forth in
Article 15.

 

(b)          When
the Issuer executes a supplemental indenture pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 14.07, the Issuer shall promptly
file with the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate briefly stating the reasons therefor, the kind or amount of cash, securities
or property or asset that will comprise a unit of Reference Property after any such Merger Event, any adjustment to be made with
respect thereto and that all conditions precedent have been complied with, and shall promptly mail notice thereof to all Holders.
The Issuer 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 the 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
Issuer shall not become a party to any Merger Event unless its terms are consistent with this Section 14.07. None of the foregoing
provisions shall affect the right of a Holder of Notes to convert its Notes into cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination
of cash and shares of Common Stock, 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.

 

Section 14.08.         Certain
Covenants. (a) The Issuer covenants that all shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Notes will be fully paid and
non-assessable by the Issuer and free from all taxes, liens and charges (other than those created by the Holder) with respect to
the issue thereof.

 

    	102

    	 

    

 

(b)          The
Issuer covenants that, if any shares of Common Stock 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 before such shares of Common Stock may be validly
issued upon conversion, the Issuer 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
Issuer further covenants that if at any time the Common Stock shall be listed on any national securities exchange or automated
quotation system the Issuer will list and keep listed, so long as the Common Stock shall be so listed on such exchange or automated
quotation system, any Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes.

 

Section 14.09.         Responsibility
of Trustee. The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder
to determine the Conversion Rate (or any adjustment thereto) or whether any facts exist that may require any adjustment (including
any increase) of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent or calculation of any such adjustment when made,
or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental indenture provided to be employed, in making the same.
The Trustee and any other Conversion Agent shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount)
of any shares of Common Stock, or of any securities, property or cash that may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion
of any Note; and the Trustee and any other Conversion Agent make no representations with respect thereto. Neither the Trustee nor
any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Issuer to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock
or stock certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion or to
comply with any of the duties, responsibilities or covenants of the Issuer contained in this Article. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of
any provisions contained in any supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 14.07 relating either to the kind or amount
of shares of stock or securities or property (including cash) receivable by Holders upon the conversion of their Notes after any
event referred to in such Section 14.07 or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but, subject to the provisions of
Section 7.01, may accept (without any independent investigation) as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions,
and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officers’ Certificate (which the Issuer 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 until the Issuer 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 Issuer 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 14.10.         Notice
to Holders Prior to Certain Actions. In case of any:

 

    	103

    	 

    

 

(a)          action
by the Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries that would require an adjustment in the Conversion Rate pursuant to Section 14.04 or Section
14.11;

 

(b)          Merger
Event; or

 

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

 

then, in each case (unless notice
of such event is otherwise required pursuant to another provision of the Indenture), the Issuer 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 Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries or,
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record are to be determined for the purposes
of such action by the Issuer 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 Common Stock of
record shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock 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 Issuer or one of its Subsidiaries, Merger Event, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up.

 

Section 14.11.         Stockholder
Rights Plans. If the Issuer has a stockholder rights plan in effect upon conversion of the Notes, each share of Common Stock,
if any, issued upon such conversion shall be entitled to receive the appropriate number of rights, if any, and the certificates
representing the Common Stock issued upon such conversion shall bear such legends, if any, in each case as may be provided by the
terms of any such stockholder rights plan, as the same may be amended from time to time. However, if, prior to any conversion of
Notes, the rights have separated from the shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of the applicable stockholder
rights plan so that the Holders would not be entitled to receive any rights in respect of Common Stock, if any, issuable upon conversion
of the Notes, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted at the time of separation as if the Issuer distributed to all or substantially
all holders of the Common Stock distributed property as provided in Section 14.04(c), subject to readjustment in the event
of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights.

 

Section 14.12.         Limit
on Issuance of Shares of Common Stock 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 Issuer, the Issuer
will, at its option, either obtain stockholder approval of any issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of the Notes in excess
of such limitations or pay cash in lieu of delivering any shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable upon conversions in excess
of such limitations based on the Daily VWAP for each Trading Day of the relevant Observation Period in respect of which, in lieu
of delivering shares of Common Stock, the Issuer pays cash pursuant to this Section 14.12.

Repurchase of Notes at Option of Holders

 

Section 15.01.         [Intentionally
Omitted].

 

Section 15.02.         Repurchase
at Option of Holders Upon a Fundamental Change. (a) If a Fundamental Change occurs at any time, each Holder shall have the
right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Issuer to repurchase for cash all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion
thereof that is equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000, on the date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Date”)
specified by the Issuer that is not less than 20 calendar days or more than 35 calendar days following the date of the Fundamental
Change Company Notice at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon to, but excluding, the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date (the “Fundamental Change Repurchase Price”),
unless the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date falls after a Regular Record Date but on or prior to the Interest Payment Date to
which such Regular Record Date relates, in which case the Issuer shall instead pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest
to Holders of record as of such Regular Record Date, and the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the
principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 15.

 

(b)          Repurchases
of Notes under this Section 15.02 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
on or before the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date; and

 

(ii)         delivery
of the Notes, if the Notes are Physical Notes, to the Paying Agent at any time after delivery of the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Notice (together with all necessary endorsements for transfer) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent, or book-entry
transfer of the Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in compliance with the procedures of the Depositary, in each case such delivery
being a condition to receipt by the Holder of the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price therefor.

 

The Fundamental
Change Repurchase Notice in respect of any Notes to be repurchased shall state:

 

(i)          in
the case of Physical Notes, the certificate numbers of the Notes to be delivered for repurchase;

 

(ii)         the
portion of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased, which must be $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof; and

 

(iii)        that
the Notes are to be repurchased by the Issuer pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Notes and the Indenture;

 

    	105

    	 

    

 

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 15.02 shall have the right to withdraw, in whole or in part, such Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice at any time
prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date by delivery of
a written notice of withdrawal to the Paying Agent in accordance with Section 15.03.

 

The Paying
Agent shall promptly notify the Issuer of the receipt by it of any Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice or written notice of withdrawal
thereof.

 

(c)          On
or before the 20th calendar day after the occurrence of the effective date of a Fundamental Change, the Issuer shall provide to
all Holders of Notes and the Trustee and the Paying Agent (in the case of a Paying Agent other than the Trustee) a notice (the
“Fundamental Change Issuer 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 the case of Physical Notes, such notice shall
be by first class mail or, in the case of Global Notes, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the applicable procedures
of the Depositary. Simultaneously with providing such notice, the Issuer shall publish a notice containing the information set
forth in the Fundamental Change Issuer Notice in a newspaper of general circulation in The City of New York or publish such information
on the Issuer’s website or through such other public medium as the Issuer may use at that time. Each Fundamental Change Issuer
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 Conversion Rate and any adjustments to the Conversion Rate;

 

(viii)      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 the Indenture; and

 

    	106

    	 

    

 

(ix)         the
procedures that Holders must follow to require the Issuer to repurchase their Notes.

 

No failure
of the Issuer 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 15.02.

 

At the Issuer’s
request, the Trustee shall give such notice in the Issuer’s name and at the Issuer’s expense; provided, however,
that, in all cases, the text of such Fundamental Change Issuer Notice shall be prepared by the Issuer.

 

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

 

Section 15.03.         Withdrawal
of Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice. (a) A Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice may be withdrawn (in whole or in part)
by means of a written notice of withdrawal delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in accordance with this
Section 15.03 at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Date, specifying:

 

(i)          the
principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted,

 

(ii)         if
Physical Notes have been issued, the certificate number of the Note in respect of which such notice of withdrawal is being submitted,
and

 

(iii)        the
principal amount, if any, of such Note that remains subject to the original Fundamental Change Repurchase Notice, which portion
must be in principal amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000;

 

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

 

    	107

    	 

    

 

Section 15.04.         Deposit
of Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. (a) The Issuer will deposit with the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the
Issuer, or if the Issuer is acting as its own Paying Agent, set aside, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 4.01)
on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date an amount of money sufficient to repurchase
all of the Notes to be repurchased at the appropriate Fundamental Change Repurchase Price. Subject to receipt of funds and/or Notes
by the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer), 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 (provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 15.02)
and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer)
by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 15.02 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes
entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided, however, that payments to the Depositary shall
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly
after such payment and upon written demand by the Issuer, return to the Issuer any funds in excess of the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price.

 

(b)          If
by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the
Issuer) 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, with respect to the Notes that have been properly surrendered for repurchase and have not been validly
withdrawn, (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry
transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent) and (iii) all other rights
of the Holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price).

 

(c)          Upon
surrender of a Note that is to be repurchased in part pursuant to Section 15.02, the Issuer 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 15.05.         Covenant
to Comply with Applicable Laws Upon Repurchase of Notes. In connection with any repurchase offer, the Issuer will, if required:

 

(a)          comply
with the provisions of Rule 13e-4, Rule 14e-1 and any other tender offer rules under the Exchange Act that may then be applicable;

 

(b)          file
a Schedule TO or any other required schedule under the Exchange Act; and

 

(c)          otherwise
comply with all federal and state securities laws in connection with any offer by the Issuer 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.

[FORM OF
REVERSE OF NOTE]

RCS Capital Corporation

5.00% Convertible Senior Note due 2020

 

This Note
is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”),
limited to the aggregate principal amount of $120,000,000 all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as
of April 29, 2014 (the “Indenture”) by and between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association (the
“Trustee”) to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description
of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders
of the Notes. Additional Notes may be issued in an unlimited aggregate principal amount, subject to certain conditions specified
in the Indenture. Capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings set forth
in the Indenture.

 

In case certain
Events of Default 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 on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date and the principal amount on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to
the Holder who surrenders a Note to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Note. The Company will pay cash amounts
in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

 

The Indenture
contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee in certain circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of the
Notes, and in certain other circumstances, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the Notes at the time outstanding, evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures modifying the
terms of the Indenture and the Notes as described therein. It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain exceptions,
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all
of the Notes waive any past Default or Event of Default under the Indenture and its consequences.

 

No reference
herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or deliver, as the case may be, the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase
Price, if applicable) of, accrued and unpaid interest on, and the consideration due upon conversion of, this Note at the place,
at the respective times, at the rate and in the lawful money herein prescribed.

 

    	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.

 

The Notes
shall not be redeemable by the Company.

 

Upon the
occurrence of a Fundamental Change, the Holder has the right, at such Holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase
for cash all of such Holder’s Notes or any portion thereof (in principal amounts of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof)
on the Fundamental Change Repurchase Date at a price equal to the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price.

 

Subject to
the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder hereof has the right, at its option, during certain periods and upon the occurrence
of certain conditions specified in the Indenture, prior to the close of business on the 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, shares of Common
Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, as applicable, at the Conversion Rate specified in the Indenture, as
adjusted from time to time as provided in the Indenture.
