date to the Trustee, which written instructions shall remain in effect until revised by such Holder by an instrument in writing delivered to the Trustee.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth following the Company’s signature hereto, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to following the Company’s signature hereto by manual or electronic signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of January 15, 1998 (such instrument as originally executed and delivered and as supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank), as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. 

The Company may redeem all or any portion of the Securities of this series, at its option, at any time or from time to time, (A) prior to September 15, 2031, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series being redeemed on the Redemption Date or (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities of this series being redeemed on that Redemption Date that would be due if the Securities of this series matured on September 15, 2031 (not including the portion of any payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, as determined by a Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company for such purpose; and (B) on or after September 15, 2031, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series being redeemed on the Redemption Date; plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Securities of this series that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date 

will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date in accordance with the terms of the Securities of this series and the Indenture.  The Redemption Price will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If notice has been given as provided in the Indenture and funds for the redemption of any Securities of this series (or any portion thereof) called for redemption shall have been made available on the Redemption Date referred to in such notice, such Securities (or any portion thereof) will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for such redemption specified in such notice and the only right of the Holders of such Securities will be to receive payment of the Redemption Price.

Notice of any optional redemption of Securities of this series (or any portion thereof) will be given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register for such Securities, not more than 60 nor less than 10 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. The notice of redemption will specify, among other items, (i) the Redemption Price or the manner of calculation of the Redemption Price and (ii) the principal amount of the Securities of this series held by such Holder to be redeemed if less than all of such Securities.  If less than all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed at the option of the Company, the Securities to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary.  

As used herein:

“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any applicable Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security selected by a Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company for such purpose as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of this Security to be redeemed (assuming for this purpose that such Security matured on September 15, 2031) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Security (assuming for this purpose that such Security matured on September 15, 2031).

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any applicable Redemption Date, (A) if the Company obtains three or more Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, (B) if the Company obtains two such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of such quotations, or (C) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation.

“Primary Treasury Dealer” means a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (A) BNP Paribas Securities Corp., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by MUFG Securities Americas Inc. and a Primary Treasury Dealer selected by Truist Securities, Inc.; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (B) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any applicable Redemption Date, the average of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

The Securities of this series will not be subject to any sinking fund.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security and certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions limiting the Company’s ability to issue, assume, guarantee or permit to exist any Debt secured by any mortgage, security interest, pledge or lien upon any of its Operating Property, subject to the exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of such Holders in certain circumstances, or with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66-2/3% in principal amount of the affected Securities at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the affected Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy under the Indenture, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(b)
the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if made, given, furnished or delivered, in writing (which may include via facsimile), or mailed, first-class postage prepaid,
or delivered by recognized overnight courier, to the Company, addressed to it at the address of its principal office specified in the
first paragraph of this Indenture, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company.

 

The Trustee agrees to accept
instructions or directions pursuant to this Indenture sent by unsecured e-mail, pdf, facsimile transmission or other similar unsecured
electronic methods: provided, however, that the Trustee shall have received an incumbency certificate listing persons designated
to give such instructions or directions and containing specimen signatures of such designated persons, which such incumbency certificate
shall be amended and replaced whenever a person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Company elects to give the Trustee
e-mail or facsimile instructions (or instructions by a similar electronic method) and the Trustee acts upon such instructions as required
or permitted by this Indenture, then the Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly
from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent
with a subsequent written instruction. The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit
instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized instructions,
and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

 

Section 1.06
NOTICE TO HOLDERS; WAIVER.

 

Where this Indenture provides
for notice of any event to Holders by the Company or the Trustee, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, by email or such other applicable customary procedures of the Depository,
to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date,
and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail,
neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency
of such notice with respect to other Holders. Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed
to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. Where this Indenture provides for notice
in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and
such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall
not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

 

In case by reason of the suspension
of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event to
Holders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as
shall be satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice for every purpose hereunder.

 

Section 1.07
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

 

All covenants and agreements
in this Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Trustee in
this Indenture shall bind its successors, whether so expressed or not.

 

Section 1.08
NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR STOCKHOLDERS.

 

No director, officer, employee,
incorporator or stockholders, as such, of the Company shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or this
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creations. Each Holder by accepting a Note
waives and releases all such liability. Such waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. Such waiver
may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a waiver is
against public policy.

THE NOTES

 

Section 3.01
TITLE AND TERMS.

 

The aggregate principal amount
of Notes which may be authenticated and issued under this Indenture is not limited; provided, however that any additional Notes issued
under this Indenture are issued in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, as part of the same series as the Initial Notes, form a single
class with the Initial Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption, conversion or otherwise as the Initial Notes.

 

The Notes shall be known and
designated as the “7.00% Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2031” of the Company. The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be
December 31, 2031. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year starting on December 31,
2021 to Holders of record at the close of business on the preceding June 1 and December 1, respectively. Interest shall accrue on the
Notes at a rate of 7.0% per annum. Interest will accrue on the Notes from and including the Issuance Date or from, and including, the
last date in respect of which interest has been paid or provided for, as the case may be, to, but excluding, the next Interest Payment
Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months,
until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided for. Interest on any overdue principal, interest (to the extent lawful) or premium,
if any, shall be payable on demand in the form as provided in Article Fourteen hereof.

 

The principal of (and premium,
if any) and interest on the Notes shall be payable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose; provided, however,
that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be paid by check mailed to addresses of the Persons entitled thereto as such
addresses shall appear on the Note Register; provided that all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to Notes
represented by one or more permanent Global Notes registered in the name of or held by the Depository or its nominee will be made by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Holders thereof.

 

The Notes shall be convertible
into Common Stock pursuant to Article Fourteen.

 

The Notes shall be redeemable
as provided in Article Eleven and in the Notes.

 

Section 3.02
DENOMINATIONS.

 

The Notes shall be issuable
only in registered form without coupons and only in minimum denominations of $25.00 and integral multiples thereof.

 

Section 3.03
EXECUTION, AUTHENTICATION, DELIVERY AND DATING.

 

The Notes shall be executed
on behalf of the Company by an Officer. The signature of an Officer on the Notes may be manual or facsimile signatures of the present
or any future such authorized Officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Notes.

 

Notes bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper Officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or did not hold
such offices at the date of such Notes.

 

On or prior to the Issuance
Date, the Company shall deliver the Initial Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed thirty million dollars ($30,000,000)
executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order directing the Trustee to authenticate the Initial
Notes and certifying that all conditions precedent to the issuance of Notes contained herein have been fully complied with, and the Trustee
in accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Initial Notes.

 

Each Note shall be dated the
date of its authentication.

 

No Note shall be entitled to
any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate
upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder
and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 

The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating
Agent acceptable to the Company to authenticate Notes on behalf of the Trustee. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an Authenticating
Agent may authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes
authentication by such Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Note Registrar or Paying Agent to deal with the Company
and its Affiliates.

Section 3.04
TEMPORARY NOTES.

 

Pending the preparation of certificates
representing Notes, the Company may execute, and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary
Notes which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially
of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and
other variations as the Officers executing such Notes may determine, as conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

 

If temporary Notes are issued,
the Company will cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary
Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Company designated
for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary
Notes, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor
a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

 

Section 3.05
REGISTRATION, REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE.

 

The Company shall cause to be
kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency
designated pursuant to Section 10.02 being herein sometimes referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of Notes. The Note
Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable
times, the Note Register shall be open to inspection by the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as security registrar (the
Trustee in such capacity, together with any successor of the Trustee in such capacity, the “Note Registrar”) for the purpose
of registering Notes and transfers of Notes as herein provided. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed to act as the Paying Agent and
the Conversion Agent.

 

Upon surrender for registration
of transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.02, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one
or more new Notes of any authorized denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount. The Trustee shall not be required
to register transfers of Notes or to exchange Notes for a period of 15 days before selection of any Notes to be redeemed. The Trustee
shall not be required to exchange or register transfers of any Notes called or being called for redemption in whole or in part, except
the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. The Trustee shall not be required to register the transfer of or to exchange
a Note between a record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.

 

Furthermore, any Holder of a
Global Note shall, by acceptance of such Global Note, agree that transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Note may be effected
only through a book-entry system maintained by the Holder of such Global Note (or its agent), and that ownership of a beneficial interest
in the Note shall be required to be reflected in a book entry.

 

At the option of the Holder,
Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the
Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the
Trustee shall, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticate and deliver, the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to
receive and the Notes to be exchanged shall be cancelled by the Trustee.

 

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

 

Every Note presented or surrendered
for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Company or the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or
such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

 

    12

     

    

 

No service charge shall be made
for any registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any taxes, fees or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes,
other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04 or Section 9.06, not involving any transfer.

 

Prior to due presentment for
the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note
is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Notes and for
all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

Each Holder of a Note agrees
to indemnify the Company and the Trustee against any liability that may result from the transfer, exchange or assignment of such Holder’s
Note by such Holder in violation of any provision of this Indenture and/or applicable United States federal or state securities laws.

 

Neither the Trustee nor any
Agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility for any actions taken or not taken by the Depository.

 

Section 3.06
MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST AND STOLEN NOTES.

 

If (i) any mutilated Note is
surrendered to the Trustee, or (ii) the Company and the Trustee receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Note, and there is delivered to the Company and the Trustee such security or indemnity bond, in each case, as may be required by
them to save each of them and any Authenticating Agent harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such
Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of a Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate
and deliver, in exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and
principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

 

In case any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing
a new Note, pay such Note.

 

Upon the issuance of any new
Note under this Section 3.06, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith.

 

Every new Note issued pursuant
to this Section 3.06 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation
of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes
duly issued hereunder.

 

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

 

Section 3.07
PAYMENT OF INTEREST; INTEREST RIGHTS PRESERVED.

 

Interest on any Note which is
payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for as set forth in the following paragraph, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid
to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 10.02.

 

The interest payable on any
Interest Payment Date may be paid: (a) in cash; (b) in shares of Series B Preferred Stock; (c) in shares of Series D Preferred Stock;
or (d) in any combination of (a), (b), and/or (c). For purposes of determining the value of Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred
Stock paid as interest on the Notes, each share of Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock shall be deemed have a value
equal to the product of (x) the average of the VWAPs for the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series D Preferred Stock, as the case may
be, for the 15 consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, and
(y) 0.55. On each Regular Record Date, the Company shall instruct the Subscription Agent, with a copy to the Trustee, whether the interest
paid on the next interest payment date should be in the form of (a), (b), (c), or (d) above and, if (d), the percentage of such interest
to be paid in cash, Series B Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock.

Section 3.08
PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.

 

Prior to the due presentment
of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any Agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name such Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and
(subject to Sections 3.05 and 3.07) interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue,
and none of the Company, the Trustee nor any Agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

Section 3.09
CANCELLATION.

 

All Notes surrendered for payment,
redemption, conversion, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered
to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or
to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder which the Company has not
issued and sold, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. If the Company shall acquire any of the Notes
other than as set forth in the preceding sentence, the acquisition shall not operate as a redemption, conversion or satisfaction of the
indebtedness represented by such Notes unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to this Section
3.09. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 3.09, except as expressly
permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary
procedures, and certification of the destruction of all canceled Notes will be delivered to the Company, at the Company’s written
request.

 

Section 3.10
COMPUTATION OF INTEREST.

 

Interest on the Notes shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

 

Section 3.11
CUSIP NUMBERS.

 

The Company in issuing the Notes
may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (in each case, if then generally in use) in addition
to serial numbers, and, if so, the Trustee shall use such “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in
addition to serial numbers in notices of redemption, repurchase or other notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided that
any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common
Code” numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption or repurchase and that reliance may be
placed only on the serial or other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or repurchase shall not be affected
by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the “CUSIP”
numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers applicable to the Notes.

 

Section 3.12
CALCULATION OF PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF NOTES.

 

The aggregate principal amount
of the Notes, at any date of determination, shall be the principal amount of the Notes at such date of determination. With respect to
any matter requiring consent, waiver, approval or other action of the Holders of a specified percentage of the principal amount of all
the Notes, such percentage shall be calculated, on the relevant date of determination, by dividing (a) the principal amount, as of such
date of determination, of Notes, the Holders of which have so consented, by (b) the aggregate principal amount, as of such date of determination,
of the Notes then Outstanding.

(d)
the Company’s failure to comply with any other term, covenant or agreement contained in the Notes or this Indenture, if the
failure is not cured within 60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or to the Trustee and the Company by Holders of at least
25% in aggregate principal amount of the applicable Notes then outstanding, in accordance with this Indenture;

 

(e)

Subsidiaries; or (C) orders the liquidation of the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries.

 

Section 5.02
ACCELERATION OF MATURITY; RESCISSION AND ANNULMENT.

 

If an Event of Default, other
than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(g) or 5.01(h), occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee, by notice to the Company,
or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding, by notice to the Company and the Trustee, may declare
the principal of, (and premium, if any) accrued and unpaid interest on, all the then Outstanding Notes to be immediately due and payable
in cash. In the case of an Event of Default specified in Section 5.01(g) or 5.01(h) occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount
of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable in cash without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

 

At any time after a declaration
of acceleration has been made, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes Outstanding, by written notice to
the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if

 

(a)
the rescission would not conflict with any order or decree;

 

(b)
all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest, have been cured
or waived; and

 

(c)
all amounts due to the Trustee are paid.

 

The Trustee is not obligated
to exercise any of its rights or powers at the request or demand of the Holders, unless the Holders have offered to the Trustee security
or indemnity that is satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities that the Trustee may incur to comply with
the request or demand. Subject to applicable law and the Trustee’s rights to indemnification, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will 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. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any
direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture or, if the Trustee, being advised by counsel, determines that the action or proceeding
so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed would
involve the Trustee in personal liability or expense for which it is not adequately indemnified, or that the Trustee determines is unduly
prejudicial to the rights of any other Holder (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether
or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such Holders).

 

Section 5.03
COLLECTION OF INDEBTEDNESS AND SUITS FOR ENFORCEMENT BY TRUSTEE.

 

If an Event of Default specified
in Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial
proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid (and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover
the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel) may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other
obligor upon the Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the
Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated.

 

    15

     

    

 

If an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders under this
Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights or
any proper remedy, subject however to Section 5.13. No recovery of any such judgment upon any property of the Company shall affect or
impair any rights, powers or remedies of the Trustee or the Holders.

 

Section 5.04
TRUSTEE MAY FILE PROOFS OF CLAIM.

 

In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative
to the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, 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 on the Company for the payment of overdue principal, premium, if any,
or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

 

(a)
to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Notes, to take such other actions (including participating as a member, voting or otherwise, of any official committee of creditors appointed
in such matter) and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee
(including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its Agents and counsel) and
of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

 

(b)
to collect, receive and distribute any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same;

 

and any Custodian in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall
consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its Agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 6.07.

 

Nothing herein contained shall
be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Notes 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; provided, however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of such Holders, vote for the election
of a trustee in bankruptcy or other similar official.

 

Section 5.05
TRUSTEE MAY ENFORCE CLAIMS WITHOUT POSSESSION OF NOTES.

 

All rights of action and claims
under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production
thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name and 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 in respect of which such
judgment has been recovered.

 

Section 5.06
APPLICATION OF MONEY AND PROPERTY COLLECTED.

 

Any money and property collected
by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case
of the distribution of such money and property on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Notes
and the notation thereon of 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 6.07;

 

SECOND: To the payment of the
amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of
which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on
such Notes for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

 

THIRD: The balance, if any,
to the Person or Persons entitled thereto, including the Company or any other obligor on the Notes, as their interests may appear or as
a court of competent jurisdiction may direct in writing; provided that all sums due and owing to the Holders and the Trustee have been

Section 5.07
LIMITATION ON SUITS.

 

No Holder of any Notes shall
have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to its rights, or for the appointment of a receiver or a Trustee, or for any other
remedy hereunder, unless

 

(a)
such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

 

(b)
the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee
to pursue the remedy;

such Holder or Holders have offered and, if requested, provided to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability
or expense to be incurred in compliance with such request; and

 

(d)
the Trustee fails to comply with the request within 60 days after the Trustee receives the notice, request and offer of indemnity
and does not receive, during those 60 days, from Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, a
direction that is inconsistent with the request.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Indenture and any provision of any Note, each Holder shall have the right to receive payment or delivery, as the case may be,
of (x) the principal (including the Redemption 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 this Indenture, or
to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment or delivery, as the case may be.

 

A Holder may not use this Indenture
to prejudice the rights of another Holder to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder.

 

Section 5.08
UNCONDITIONAL RIGHT OF HOLDERS TO RECEIVE PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM AND INTEREST.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision
in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein
(including, if applicable, Article Eleven) and in such Note of the principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 3.07) interest
on such Note on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption or repurchase, on the Redemption

the consent of such Holder.

 

Section 5.09
RESTORATION OF RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

 

If the Trustee or any Holder
has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned
for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination
in such proceeding, the Company, any other obligor on the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively
to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no
such proceeding had been instituted.

 

Section 5.10
RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

 

Except as otherwise provided
with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in the last paragraph of Section 3.06, no right

and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder,
or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

 

Section 5.11
DELAY OR OMISSION NOT WAIVER.

 

No delay or omission of the
Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or
remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article or
by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or
by the Holders, as the case may be.

CONTROL BY HOLDERS.

 

The Holders of not less than
a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes 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; provided that:

 

(a)
such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture,

 

(b)
the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not
consenting (it being understood that the Trustee does not have an affirmative duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances
are unjustly prejudicial to such Holders); and

 

(c)
subject to the provisions of Section 3.15 of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the
Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction.

 

Section 5.13
WAIVER OF PAST DEFAULTS.

 

The Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may by notice to the Trustee waive any past Default or Event of Default and its consequences
under this Indenture other than a Default or Event of Default:

 

(a)
in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any Note or in the payment of the Redemption Price;

 

(b)
arising from the Company’s failure to convert or redeem any Note in accordance with this Indenture; or

 

(c)
in respect of any provision under this Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holders of each
Outstanding Note affected.

 

The Company will promptly notify
the Trustee in writing upon its becoming aware of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, its status and what action the Company
is taking or proposes to take in respect thereof. In addition, the Company is required to furnish to the Trustee, on an annual basis within
180 days after January 1 in any year, beginning January 1, 2022, a written certificate by the Company’s Officers stating whether
they have actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default by the Company in performing any of its obligations under this Indenture
or the Notes and describing any such Default or Event of Default. If a Default or Event of Default has occurred and the Trustee has received
notice of the Default or Event of Default in accordance with this Indenture, the Trustee must mail to each registered Holder of applicable
Notes a notice of the Default or Event of Default within 90 days after receipt of the notice. However, the Trustee need not mail the notice
if the Default or Event of Default:

 

(a)
has been cured or waived; or

 

(b)
is not in the payment or delivery of any amounts due (including upon conversion or redemption) with respect to any Note and the
Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the best interests of Holders.

 

Upon any such waiver, such Default
shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture;
but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

Section 5.14
WAIVER OF STAY OR EXTENSION LAWS.

 

Each of the Company and any
other obligors upon the Notes covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead,
or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time
hereafter in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and each of the Company and any such obligor
(to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will
not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every
such power as though no such law had been enacted.

 

Section 5.15
UNDERTAKING FOR COSTS.

 

All parties to this Indenture
agree, and each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its
discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for
any action taken, suffered 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;
but the provisions of this Section 5.15 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 Outstanding Notes, or to any suit instituted by any
Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note on or after the respective
Stated Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default,

 

(i)  
the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth
in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 

 

(ii)
in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct on its part, as determined in a final and non-appealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon 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, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not
they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof. 

 

(b)
In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which written notice of such Event of Default shall have been given
to the Trustee by the Company, any other obligor of the Notes or by any Holder, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

 

(c)
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

 

(i)  
this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section 6.01;

 

(ii)
the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer,
unless it shall be proved in a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee was negligent in

no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise

or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability
is not reasonably assured to it.

Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability
of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.01.

notice is in the best interests of the Holders. In addition, the Trustee shall have no obligation to accelerate the Notes if in the judgment
of the Trustee acceleration is not in the interest of the Holders of such Notes.

in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 6.08, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article.

of Directors of the Company, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability,
or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance
of such appointment, become the successor Trustee and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee
shall have been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who
has been a bona fide Holder for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

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 request of the Company or the successor
Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of all its charges, 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. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company 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.

 

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.

CONSOLIDATION OR SUCCESSION TO BUSINESS.

 

Any corporation or national association into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or national association resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or national association succeeding to
all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation or national association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. 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 had itself authenticated such Notes. In case
at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name
of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee. In all such cases such certificates shall have the full force and
effect which this Indenture provides for the certificate of authentication of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right
to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Notes in the name of any predecessor Trustee
shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

Section 9.02 SUPPLEMENTAL
INDENTURES WITH CONSENT OF HOLDERS.

respect to modification and waiver (including waiver of a Default or Event of Default), except to increase the percentage required for
modification or waiver or to provide for the consent of each affected Holder.

 

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders
under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act
shall approve the substance thereof.

 

Section 9.03 EXECUTION
OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

 

In executing, or accepting the additional trusts
created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture,
the Trustee shall receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each
stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and, with respect to such Opinion
of Counsel, that such amended or supplemental indenture is a valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms (subject to customary conditions). The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture
which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, privileges, protections, indemnities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution
of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form satisfactory

and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Order in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

 

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue
a new Note in accordance with this Section will not affect the validity and effect of such supplemental indenture.

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES.

 

Promptly after the execution by the Company and the

COVENANTS

 

Section 10.01 PAYMENT
OF PRINCIPAL, PREMIUM, IF ANY, AND INTEREST.

 

The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit
of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in accordance with
the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. On the Maturity Date, the Company may repay the principal accrued on the Notes: (a) in cash;
(b) in Common Stock as provided in Section 14.01(b) of this Indenture; or (c) in any combination of (a) and (b). To the extent paid in
cash, principal shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent holds, for the benefit of the Holders, as
of 10:00 a.m., New York City time on that date U.S. legal tender designated for and sufficient to pay such principal or interest then
due, or the Company consummates the conversion of Notes in accordance with Article 14 by such date.

 

    28

     

    

 

Section 10.02 MAINTENANCE
OF OFFICE OR AGENCY.

 

The Company will maintain an office or agency where
the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, where the Notes may be presented for payment or conversion and
where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The designated office of the
Trustee shall be such office or agency of the Company, unless the Company shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for
one or more of such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office
or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with
the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee,
and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its Agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

 

The Company may also from time to time designate
one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to
time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of
its obligation to maintain an office or agency for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such
designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

 

Section 10.03 MONEY FOR
NOTE PAYMENTS TO BE HELD IN TRUST.

 

If the Company shall at any time elect to make cash
payments in respect of principal of (or premium, if any) or cash interest, if any, on any of the Notes, and the Company at such time is
acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient
to pay in cash the principal of (or premium, if any) or cash interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid in cash to such Persons
or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure to so act.

 

Whenever the Company elects to make cash payments
in respect of principal of (or premium, if any) or cash interest, if any, on any of the Notes, and at such time has appointed one or more
Paying Agents for the Notes, the Company will, on or before each due date of the principal of (premium, if any) or cash interest on any
Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum in same day funds (or New York Clearing House funds if such deposit is made prior to the date
on which such deposit is required to be made) sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such
sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent
is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any failure to so act.

 

The Company will cause each Paying Agent (other than
the Trustee) to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the
provisions of this Section 10.03, that such Paying Agent will:

 

(a) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on Notes in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall
be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

 

(b) give the Trustee notice of any default by the
Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest; and

 

(c) at any time during the continuance of any such
default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

 

The Company may at any time pay, or by Company Order
direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the
Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any
Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

 

    29

     

    

 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying
Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note and remaining
unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request,
or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general
creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust
money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying
Agent, before being required to make any such repayment to the Company, may at the written request and expense of the Company cause to
be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation
in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein,
which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid
to the Company.

 

Section 10.04 CORPORATE
EXISTENCE.

 

The Company will do or cause to be done all things
necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and the corporate rights (charter and statutory) licenses
and franchises of the Company, except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such existence (except that of the Company),
right, license or franchise if the Board of Directors of the Company shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable
in the conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not, and will not be, disadvantageous in any material respect
to the Holders.

 

Section 10.05 PAYMENT
OF TAXES AND OTHER CLAIMS.

 

The Company will pay or discharge or cause to be
paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed
upon the Company or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Subsidiary prior to the date on which
material penalties attach thereto and (b) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a
material liability or lien upon the property of the Company or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required
to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity
is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate accruals, if necessary (in the good faith judgment
of management of the Company) are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

 

Section 10.06 MAINTENANCE
OF PROPERTIES.

 

The Company will cause all material properties owned
by the Company or used or held for use in the conduct of its business to be maintained and kept in normal condition, repair and working
order, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements
thereof, all as in the judgment of the Company may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly
conducted at all times, except to the extent the failure to so maintain and preserve or so comply could not reasonably be expected to
have a material adverse effect; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.06 shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the
maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business
and not adverse in any material respect to the Holders.

 

    30

     

    

 

Section 10.07 COMPLIANCE
WITH LAWS.

 

The Company shall comply with all applicable statutes,
rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of the United States of America, all states and municipalities thereof, and of any governmental
regulatory authority, in respect of the conduct of their respective businesses and the ownership of their respective properties, except
such as may be contested in good faith or as to which a bona fide dispute may exist and except for such noncompliances as would not in
the aggregate have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole.

 

Section 10.08 NOTICES
TO THE TRUSTEE

 

(a) The Company shall provide prompt written notice
to the Trustee of any change to its fiscal year, which as of the date hereof ends on December 31.

 

(b) When any Default has occurred and is continuing
under this Indenture, or if the trustee for or the holder of any other evidence of indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary gives
any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed default (other than with respect to indebtedness in the principal amount
of less than $5.0 million), the Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of such event, notice or other action within five Business
Days of its occurrence. The Company shall furnish to the Trustee, not less than annually, an Officers’ Certificate certifying that,
to the knowledge of the Company, it is in compliance with all conditions and covenants under the Indenture.

 

Section 10.09 COMMISSION
REPORTS AND REPORTS TO HOLDERS.

 

The Company will deliver to the Trustee (without
exhibits), within 15 days after it is required to file them with the Commission copies of: (A) annual reports on Form 10-K (or any successor
or comparable form) containing the information required to be contained therein (or required in such successor or comparable form); (B)
reports on Form 10-Q (or any successor or comparable form); (C) reports on Form 8-K (or any successor or comparable form); and (D) any
other information, documents and other reports which the Company would be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; provided, however, if the Company is not obligated to file such reports with the Commission or if the Commission
does not permit such filing, the Company shall make available such information to prospective purchasers of the Notes, in addition to
providing such information to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, in each case within 15 days after the time the Company would have
been required to file such information with the Commission, if it were subject to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Delivery of
such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall
not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including
the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officers’
Certificates). The Company shall be deemed to have furnished the reports, documents and information referred to above to the Trustee,
the Holders and/or the prospective purchasers of the Notes, if the Company has filed such reports, documents or information with the Commission
via the EDGAR filing system (or any successor system) and/or posted such reports, documents or information on the Company’s website
and such reports, documents and information are publicly available. Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, the Trustee
shall have no obligation to monitor whether the Company posts such reports, information and documents on the Company’s website or
the Commission’s EDGAR service, or to collect any such information from the Company’s website or the Commission’s EDGAR
service. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the content, filing or timeliness of any report delivered or filed
under or in connection with this Indenture or the transactions contemplated hereunder.

Section 11.01 OPTIONAL
REDEMPTION.

 

(a) After January 1, 2024, the Company may redeem
the Notes, in whole or from time to time in part, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). The Redemption Price may be paid:
(a) in cash; (b) in shares of Common Stock; or (c) in any combination of (a) and (b). For purposes of determining the value of Common
Stock paid as all or part of the Redemption Price, each share of Common Stock shall be deemed to have a value equal to the product of

Section 11.02 APPLICABILITY
OF ARTICLE.

 

Redemption of Notes at the election of the Company
or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture or the Notes, shall be made in accordance with such provision

Section 11.03 ELECTION
TO REDEEM; NOTICE TO TRUSTEE.

 

The election of the Company to redeem any Notes pursuant
to Section 11.01 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company. In case of any redemption at the election
of the Company, the Company shall, at least 3 Business Days prior to the date notice is required to be sent to Holders (unless a shorter
notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee in writing of such Redemption Date, the paragraph of the Notes or Section
of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed, and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed.

 

Section 11.04 NOTICE OF
REDEMPTION.

 

Notice of redemption shall be given by the Company
in the manner provided for in Section 1.06 at least 10 but not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder to be redeemed
at such Holder’s registered address. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.04 to the contrary, to the extent these procedures
conflict with procedures of the Depository, the procedures of the Depository shall supersede the procedures set forth herein.

 

All notices of redemption shall be prepared by the
Company and shall state:

 

(b) the Redemption Date,

 

(c) the Redemption Price payable as provided in Section
11.06, if any,

 

(d) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be
redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of a partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed,

 

(e) in case any Note is to be redeemed in part only,
the notice which relates to such Note shall state that on and after the Redemption Date, upon surrender of such Note, the Holder shall
receive, without charge, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for the principal amount thereof remaining unredeemed,

 

(f) what percentage of the Redemption Price will
be paid in cash or in Common Stock,

 

(g) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price
will become due and payable upon each such Note, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and, unless the Company defaults in making the
redemption payment, that interest on Notes called for redemption (or the portion thereof) will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(h) the place or places where such Notes are to be
surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest, if any,

 

(i) the name and address of the Paying Agent,

 

(j) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered
to the Paying Agent to collect the Redemption Price,

 

(k) the CUSIP number, and that no representation
is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes, and

 

(l) the paragraph of the Notes or Section of this
Indenture pursuant to which the Notes are to be redeemed.

 

At the Company’s request, the Trustee will
give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company has delivered to the
Trustee, at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and
setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph.

 

    32

     

    

 

Section 11.05 DEPOSIT
OF REDEMPTION PRICE.

 

If the Company elects to pay the Redemption Price
in cash, then prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying
Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03) an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and accrued interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date.

 

If the Redemption Date falls after a Record Date
and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company will pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on
such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding Regular Record Date. On and after the
Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited
with the Paying Agent funds (to the extent the Company elects to pay the Redemption Price in cash) and issues Common Stock to the Holders
(to the extent the Company elects to pay the Redemption Price in shares of Common Stock) in full satisfaction of the applicable Redemption
Price, pursuant to this Indenture.

 

If the Company elects to pay the Redemption Price
in shares of the Company’s Common Stock, then the Company shall direct the Trustee by Company Order to make a notation on such Global
Note or an adjustment on the Trustee’s books and records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented thereby, and the
Company shall take all actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the issuance of shares of the Company’s Common Stock
to the Holders. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Trustee, in its capacity as Paying Agent, be required to hold shares
of the Company’s Common Stock in trust in connection with a redemption of the Notes.

 

Section 11.06 NOTES PAYABLE
ON REDEMPTION DATE.

 

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from
and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Notes shall cease to bear interest.
Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption
Price, and such Notes shall be cancelled by the Trustee; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on
or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes or one or more predecessor Notes registered as such at the
close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.07.

 

If any Note called for redemption shall not be so
paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date
at the rate borne by the Notes.

 

Section 11.07 SELECTION
OF NOTES TO BE REDEEMED.

 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed
at any time, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be redeemed (a) if the Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance
with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed (and the Company shall notify the Trustee
of any such listing), or (b) if the Notes are not listed on a national securities exchange, (i) on a pro rata basis to the extent practicable
or (ii) by lot or such other similar method in accordance with the procedures of the Depository (to the extent the Notes are Global Notes).

 

Section 11.08 NOTES REDEEMED
IN PART.

 

Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part (pursuant
to the provision of this Article) shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose pursuant to
Section 10.01 (with, if the Company or the Trustee so require, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory
to the Company and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or
Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed
portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

SUBORDINATION

 

Section 12.01 AGREEMENT
TO SUBORDINATE.

 

The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns,
covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Note likewise covenants and agrees by its acceptance thereof, that the obligation of the Company
to make any payment on account of the principal and interest on each and all of the Notes shall be subordinate and junior in right of
payment to the Company’s Obligations to the holders of Senior Indebtedness to the extent provided herein, and that in the case of
any insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, reorganization, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings or any liquidation or winding-up of or relating to the Company as a whole, whether voluntary or involuntary, all Obligations
to holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to be paid in full before any payment shall be made on account of the principal or
interest on the Notes. In the event of any such proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to Senior Indebtedness,
the Holders of the Notes, together with the holders of any Obligations of the Company Ranking on a Parity with the Notes, shall be entitled
to be paid from the remaining assets of the Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal and interest
on the Notes before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital
stock or any Obligations of the Company Ranking Junior to the Notes. In addition, subject to the provisions of Section 12.03, in the event
of any such proceeding, if any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
Notes, including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness
of the Company being subordinated to the payment of the Notes, shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes before all
Senior Indebtedness is paid in full and if such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, receiving such payment is aware at the time
of receipt that all Senior Indebtedness has not been paid in full, then such payment or distribution shall, if received by any Holder,
be held in trust for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness or, if received by the Trustee, shall be held by it and delivered
forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee, agent or other Person making payment or distribution of the assets of the
Company, and, in each case, shall be applied to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, until all such Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.
For purposes of this paragraph only, the words, “cash, property or Notes” shall not be deemed to include shares of capital
stock of the Company, or indebtedness of the Company or any other company provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment which
are subordinated in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding to substantially the same extent
as, or to a greater extent than, the Notes are so subordinated as provided in this Article 12. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing
provisions relating to the preference of the Senior Indebtedness shall not be affected by the conversion of the Notes into shares of Common
Stock of the Company.

 

The subordination provisions of the foregoing paragraph
shall not be applicable to amounts at the time due and owing on the Notes on account of the unpaid principal or interest on the Notes
for the payment of which funds have been deposited in trust with the Trustee or have been set aside by the Company in trust in accordance
with the provisions of this Indenture; nor shall such provisions impair any rights, interests, remedies or powers of any secured creditor
of the Company in respect of any security the creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture.

 

If there shall have occurred and be continuing (a)
a default in any payment with respect to any Senior Indebtedness or (b) an event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness as
a result of which the maturity thereof is accelerated, unless and until such payment default or event of default shall have been cured
or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no cash payments shall be made by the Company with respect to the principal or interest on the
Notes. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any payment with respect to which the first paragraph of this Section 12.01
would be applicable.

 

The securing of any Obligations of the Company Ranking
on a Parity with the Notes or Ranking Junior to the Notes shall not be deemed to prevent such Obligations from constituting Obligations
of the Company Ranking on a Parity with the Notes or Ranking Junior to the Notes.

 

The consolidation of the Company with, or the merger
of the Company into, another Person or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following the conveyance or transfer of its properties
and assets substantially as an entirety to another Person shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization,
assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshalling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the purposes of this Section 12.01.

 

    34

     

    

 

Section 12.02 OBLIGATION
OF THE COMPANY UNCONDITIONAL.

 

Nothing contained in this Article 12 or elsewhere
in this Indenture is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the Holders of the Notes the principal and interest on the Notes when, where and as the same
shall become due and payable, all in accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture, or is intended to or shall affect the
relative rights of the Holders of the Notes and creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or
therein prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon an Event
of Default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article 12 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect
of cash, property, or securities of the Company (other than shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes
as contemplated herein) received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

 

Section 12.03 NOTICE TO
TRUSTEE OF FACTS PROHIBITING PAYMENT.

 

The Company shall give prompt written notice to a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee located at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit
the making of any cash payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 12 or any
other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit
the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes, unless and until the Trustee shall have received at its Corporate
Trust Office written notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor, and, prior to the
receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, shall be entitled in all respects to assume
that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided for in this Section
12.03 at least five Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for any purpose (including,
without limitation, the payment of the principal or interest on any Notes), then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding,
the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such money and to apply the same to the purpose for which such money was received
and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary which may be received by it during or after such five Business Day period.

 

Subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Trustee
shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing itself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness
(or a trustee therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee therefor). In the
event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder
of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article 12, the Trustee may request such Person
to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent
to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person
under this Article 12, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination
as to the right of such Person to receive such payment.

 

Section 12.04 APPLICATION
BY TRUSTEE OF MONEYS DEPOSITED WITH IT.

 

Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding,
any deposit of moneys by the Company with the Trustee or any other Agent (whether or not in trust) for any payment of the principal or
interest on any Notes shall, except as provided in Section 12.03, be subject to the provisions of Section 12.01.

 

    35

     

    

 

Section 12.05 SUBROGATION
TO RIGHTS OF HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness,
the Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions
of assets of the Company applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full. For
purposes of such subrogation, none of the payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness to which the Holders of
the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article 12, or of payments over pursuant to the provisions
of this Article 12 to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by Holders of the Notes or the Trustee shall, as among the Company, its creditors
other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Notes, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or
on account of the Senior Indebtedness; it being understood that the provisions of this Article 12 are and are intended solely for the
purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Notes, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the
other hand.

 

Section 12.06 SUBORDINATION
RIGHTS NOT IMPAIRED BY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF COMPANY OR HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

No right of any present or future holders of any
Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or
failure to act on the part of the Company or any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by
the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof with which any such holder
may have or be otherwise charged.

 

Section 12.07 AUTHORIZATION
OF TRUSTEE TO EFFECTUATE SUBORDINATION OF NOTES.

 

Each Holder of a Note, by its acceptance thereof,
authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination
provided in this Article 12 and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

 

If, in the event of any proceeding or other action
relating to the Company referred to in the first sentence of Section 12.01, a proper claim or proof of debt in the form required in such
proceeding or action is not filed by or on behalf of the Holders of the Notes prior to fifteen days before the expiration of the time
to file such claim or claims, then the holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness shall have the right to file and are hereby authorized
to file appropriate claim for and on behalf of the Holders of the Notes; provided, that no such filing by any holders of Senior
Indebtedness shall preclude the Trustee from filing such a proof of claim on behalf of the Holders of Notes.

 

Section 12.08 [Reserved]

 

Section 12.09 RIGHT OF
TRUSTEE TO HOLD SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled
to all of the rights set forth in this Article 12 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it in its individual capacity
to the same extent as any other holder of such Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall be construed to deprive the Trustee
of any of its rights as such holder. Nothing in this Article shall subordinate to Senior Indebtedness the claims of, or any payments to,
the Trustee under Section 6.07.

 

Section 12.10 NOT TO PREVENT
EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

 

The failure to make a payment pursuant to the Notes
by reason of any provision in this Article 12 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a default or an Event of Default.

Section 12.11 ARTICLE
APPLICABLE TO PAYING AGENTS.

 

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the
Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article
12 shall in such case (unless the content otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its
meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee;
provided, however, that Section 12.09 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts
as Paying Agent.

 

Section 12.12 RELIANCE
ON JUDICIAL ORDER OR CERTIFICATE OF LIQUIDATING AGENT.

 

Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the
Company referred to in this Article 12, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.01, and the Holders of the Notes shall be
entitled to rely upon any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership,
liquidation, reorganization, dissolution, winding-up or similar case or proceeding is pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy,
receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee for the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution,
delivered to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such payment
or distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon,
the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article 12.

 

Section 12.13 TRUSTEE
NOT FIDUCIARY FOR HOLDERS OF SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS.

 

The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary
duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or
distribute to Holders of Notes or to the Company or to any other Person, cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness
shall be entitled by virtue of this Article 12 or otherwise.

 

Section 12.14 PAYMENT
PERMITTED IF NO DEFAULT.

 

Nothing contained in this Article 12 or elsewhere
in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent the Company, at any time except during the case of any insolvency, receivership,
conservatorship, reorganization, readjustment or debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings or any liquidation
or winding-up of or relating to the Company referred to in Section 12.01 or as provided in the third paragraph of Section 12.01, and except
as required by any regulatory enforcement action of any governmental body relating to the Company, from making payments at any time of
principal or interest on the Notes.

 

Section 12.15 THIRD PARTY
BENEFICIARIES.

 

The subordination provisions in this Article 12 are
for the benefit of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed to be third party

entity that establishes a relationship or opens an account with the Trustee. The Company agrees that it shall provide the Trustee with

Section 13.16 CURRENCY
CONVERSION.

 

Payments of principal and interest
in respect of the Notes are payable in U.S. Dollars. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert
a sum due under this Indenture to the Holder from U.S. dollars to another currency, the Company agrees, and each Holder by holding such
Note shall be deemed to have agreed, to the fullest extent that the Company and they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange
used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures such Holder could purchase U.S. dollars with such other currency
in New York City, New York on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given. The Company’s Obligations to
any Holder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than U.S. dollars, be discharged
only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, of any amount in such
Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase U.S. dollars with the Judgment Currency.

 

    40

     

    

 

If the amount of the U.S. dollars
so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee in the Judgment Currency (as determined in the
manner set forth in the preceding paragraph), as the case may be, the Company agrees, as a separate Obligation and notwithstanding any
such judgment, to indemnify the Holder and the Trustee, as the case may be, against any such loss. If the amount of the U.S. dollars so
purchased is more than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, such Holder or the Trustee,
as the case may be, shall pay the Company such excess; provided that such Holder or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall not have any
Obligation to pay any such excess if the Company shall have failed to pay such Holder or the Trustee any amounts then due and payable
under such Note or this Indenture, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder or the Trustee to such Obligations.

 

Section 13.17 ANTI-MONEY
LAUNDERING.

 

Subject at all times to Article
6, the Trustee shall retain the right not to act and shall not be liable for refusing to act if, due to a lack of information or for any
other reason whatsoever, the Trustee, in its sole judgment, determines that such act might cause it to be in non-compliance with any applicable
anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline. Further, should the Trustee in its sole
judgment, determine at any time that its acting under this Indenture has resulted in its being in noncompliance with any applicable anti-money
laundering, anti-terrorist or economic sanctions legislation, regulation or guideline, then it shall have the right to resign in accordance
with the requirements of Section 6.09.

 

Section 13.18 NO
ADVERSE INTERPRETATION OF OTHER AGREEMENTS.

 

This Indenture may not be used
to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Company or its Subsidiaries or of any other Person. Any such indenture,
loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture.

 

Section 13.19 THIRD
PARTY.

 

The Company hereby represents to
the Trustee that any account to be opened by, or interest to be held by, the Trustee in connection with this Indenture, for or to the
credit of the Company, either (i) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (ii) is intended to be used by or
on behalf of a third party, in which case, the Company hereto agrees to complete and execute forthwith a declaration in the Trustee’s
prescribed form as to the particulars of such third party.

 

Section 13.20 WAIVER
OF IMMUNITY.

 

To the extent that the Company
or any of its properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed to the Company, any right
of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from the giving of any relief in any
such legal action, suit or proceeding, from setoff or counterclaim, from the jurisdiction of New York state or U.S. federal court, from
service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment, from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from execution of judgment,
or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any such court in which proceedings
may at any time be commenced, with respect to the obligations and liabilities of the Company, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives or shall waive such right to the extent permitted by applicable law, and agrees not to plead or claim any such immunity and consents
to such relief and enforcement.

Outstanding and the amount of accrued interest to the date of the Change of Control, if any,

 

    42

     

    

 

(iii) that
on the date of the Change of Control, all Notes Outstanding will convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and, unless
the Company defaults in such conversion, that interest on Notes called for conversion will cease to accrue on and after said date,

 

(iv) the
place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for conversion,

 

(v) the
name and address of the Paying Agent, if any,

 

(vi) that
Notes called for conversion must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to receive the shares of the Company’s Common Stock,

 

(vii) whether
any such conversion or notice of any conversion is, at the Company’s discretion, subject to one or more conditions precedent, including,
but not limited to, a Change of Control. If such conversion or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent,
such notice shall describe each such condition, and if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the conversion
date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such conversion may not occur and such notice
may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the conversion date, or by the conversion
date as so delayed; and

 

(viii) the
CUSIP number, and that no representation is made as to the accuracy or correctness of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice
or printed on the Notes.

 

At the Company’s written
request, the Trustee will give the notice of conversion in the Company’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Company
has delivered to the Trustee, at least three Business Days prior to the date notice is required to be given to Holders, an Officers’
Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in
the preceding paragraph.

 

(ix) On
and after the conversion date, the conversion of all Holders’ Notes, as set forth in the Conversion Notice, shall become irrevocable.

 

(x) Notes
shall be deemed to have been converted immediately upon the opening of business on the conversion date, and at such time the rights of
the Holders of such Notes as Holders will cease, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock payable and
issuable upon conversion will be treated for all purposes as the payee or payees of such payment and the record Holder or Holders of such
Common Stock at such time.

 

    43

     

    

 

(b) Following
any conversion date or the Maturity Date, if Common Stock is used in whole or in part to pay principal of the Notes, the Company shall
satisfy its obligations with respect to such conversion by either:

 

(i) delivering
to the Conversion Agent, for delivery to the Holder (or such other Person as may be named in the Conversion Notice if applicable), the
cash payment, if any, together with certificates representing the number of shares of Common Stock, payable and issuable upon the conversion;
or

 

(ii) delivering
to such Holder the cash payment, if any, together with such number of shares of Common Stock payable and issuable upon such conversion
in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, in each case, together with payment in lieu of fractional shares, if any, as provided in
Section 14.03(c) below (such cash payment and delivery of shares, if any, the “Settlement”); provided that shares of Common
Stock only will be deliverable in certificated form if the Company determines that delivery is required in certificated shares either
because (i) delivery to the Holder (or such other Person named in the relevant Conversion Notice) is not practicable in accordance with
the Applicable Procedures or (ii) in the opinion of legal counsel, delivery is required in certificated form in order to comply with the
requirements of applicable securities laws. Settlement shall occur within 5 Business Days.

 

(c) No
fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued upon conversion of any Note or Notes. If more than one Note shall be surrendered for
conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares which shall be issuable upon conversion thereof shall be computed
on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or specified portions thereof) so surrendered. Instead of any fractional
share of Common Stock that would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Note or Notes (or specified portions thereof), the Company
shall calculate and pay a cash adjustment for the fractional amount (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a share) based upon the applicable
Conversion Rate or deemed value as the case may be. The amount of the cash adjustment payable in lieu of issuing such fractional share
shall be equal to such fractional share otherwise issuable multiplied by the deemed value of one share of Common Stock.

 

(d) Upon
conversion, a Holder shall not receive any payment of an installment of interest for accrued and unpaid interest except as set forth below.
The Settlement shall be deemed to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of the Notes and accrued and unpaid
interest to, but not including, the conversion date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. As a result, accrued and unpaid interest
to, but not including, the conversion date shall be deemed to be paid in full rather than cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. If Notes
are converted after a Regular Record Date for the payment of an installment of interest, notwithstanding such prior Regular Record Date,
such interest shall be included in the calculation of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock to be issued on the conversion date.

 

    44

     

    

 

(e) Subject
to Section 14.03(f), before any Holder of a Note shall be entitled to convert a Note as set forth above in Section 14.02, such Holder
shall (i) in the case of a Global Note, comply with the Applicable Procedures of the Depository and any transfer agent in effect at that
time and, if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which such Holder is not entitled, and
if the conversion occurs prior to the Common Stock being fully DTC FAST eligible, in addition to Depository’s standard procedures,
converting Holders shall need to provide the transfer agent with physical documentation, which forms shall be provided by the transfer
agent to the Holder (or its representative if directed by the Holder), and (ii) in the case of a Definitive 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, PDF or
other electronic transmission thereof) (a notice pursuant to the Applicable Procedure of the Depository or a notice as set forth in the
Form of 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 Common Stock to be
delivered upon Settlement of the Conversion Rate to be registered, (2) surrender such Notes, duly endorsed to the Company or in blank
(and accompanied by appropriate endorsement and transfer documents), at the office of the Conversion Agent, (3) if required, furnish appropriate
endorsements and transfer documents and (4) if required, pay funds equal to interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date to which
such Holder is not entitled. The Trustee (and if different, the Conversion Agent) shall notify the Company of any conversion pursuant
to this Article 14 on the conversion date for such conversion.

 

If more than one Note shall
be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the Conversion Rate 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.

 

(f) If
a Holder submits a Note for conversion, the Company shall pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or transfer tax due on the issuance
of any Common Stock upon conversion, unless the tax is due because the Holder requests such Common Stock to be issued in a name other
than the Holder’s name, in which case the Holder shall pay that tax. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the certificates
representing the 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.

 

(g) Upon
the conversion of an interest in a Global Note, the Trustee, or the Notes Custodian at the direction of the Trustee, shall make a notation
on such Global Note or an adjustment on the Trustee’s books and records as to the reduction in the principal amount represented
thereby. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of any conversion of Notes effected through any Conversion Agent other than the
Trustee.

 

    45

     

    

 

Section 14.04 NO RESPONSIBILITY
OF TRUSTEE FOR CONVERSION PROVISIONS.

 

The Company is responsible for
all calculations under the Indenture and the Notes, including the determination of Conversion Rate, and the VWAPs of the Common Stock.
The Company shall make all such calculations in good faith. In the absence of manifest error, such calculations shall be final and binding
on all Holders. The Company shall provide a copy of such calculations to the Trustee and the Conversion Agent, as required hereunder,
and, the Trustee and the Conversion Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the accuracy of any such calculation without independent
verification.

 

The Trustee shall not be under
any responsibility to perform any calculations under the Indenture. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or value of
any securities or assets issued upon conversion of the Notes, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the Company’s failure
to comply with any provision of this Article 14. The Conversion Agent shall have the same protection under this Section 14.04 as the Trustee.

 

Section 14.05 ADJUSTMENT
OF CONVERSION RATES.

 

The applicable Conversion Rate
shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

 

(a) In
case the Company shall hereafter pay a dividend or make a distribution to all or substantially all holders of the outstanding Common Stock
in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined by multiplying such
Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the date following the Common Stock Record Date by a fraction,

 

(i) the
numerator of which shall be sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the Common Stock Record
Date and (y) the total number of shares of Common Stock constituting such dividend or other distribution; and

 

(ii) the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the Common Stock Record Date;
such increase to become effective at the opening of business on the date following such Common Stock Record Date. For the purpose of this
paragraph (a), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of Company.
Company will not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of Company. If any dividend
or distribution of the type described in this Section 14.05(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the applicable Conversion Rate shall
again be adjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

 

    46

     

    

 

(b) In
case Company shall issue rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all holders of its outstanding shares of Common Stock (except
as to rights, options and warrants which do not entitle their holders to purchase shares until the occurrence of a Trigger Event) entitling
them (for a period expiring within forty-five (45) days after the Common Stock Record Date) to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common
Stock at a price per share less than the Current Market Price calculated using the declaration date as the date for determination of stockholders
entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants, each Conversion Rate shall be increased by multiplying such Conversion Rate in effect
at the opening of business on the Common Stock Record Date by a fraction,

 

(i) the
numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the Common Stock
Record Date, and (y) the total number of shares (the “Underlying Shares”) of Common Stock underlying all of such issued rights,
options or warrants (whether by exercise, conversion, exchange or otherwise); and

 

(ii) the
denominator of which shall be the sum of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the Common Stock
Record Date, and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate exercise, conversion, exchange or other price at which the
Underlying Shares may be subscribed for or purchased pursuant to such rights or warrants would purchase at such Current Market Price;
such increase to become effective at the opening of business on the date following such Common Stock Record Date.

 

Such adjustment shall be successively
made whenever any such rights, options or warrants are issued, and shall become effective immediately after the opening of business on
the Common Stock Record Date. To the extent that shares of Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such rights, options
or warrants, each Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon
the issuance of such rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually
delivered. If such rights or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be each Conversion Rate that would
then be in effect if a Common Stock Record Date had not been fixed. In determining whether any rights or warrants entitle the holders
to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at less than such Current Market Price, and in determining the aggregate offering
price of such shares of Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by Company for such rights, options
or warrants and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined
by the Board of Directors acting in good faith.

 

(c) In
case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, each Conversion Rate in effect
at the opening of business on the date following the date upon which such subdivision becomes effective shall be proportionately increased,
and conversely, in case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, each Conversion
Rate in effect at the opening of business on the date following the date upon which such combination becomes effective shall be proportionately
reduced, such increase or reduction, as the case may be, to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the date following
the date upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective.

 

    47

     

    

 

(d) In
case Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock a portion of its assets
(including cash, debt, or other securities or rights to purchase securities (but excluding any distribution referred to in Sections 14.05(a),
14.05(b), 14.05(c) or 14.05(f))) (any of the foregoing hereinafter in this Section 14.05(d) called the “Distributed Property”),
then, in each such case (unless Company elects to reserve such Distributed Property for distribution to the Noteholders upon the conversion
of the Notes, so that any such holder converting Notes will receive upon such conversion, in addition to the shares of Common Stock to
which such holder is entitled, the amount and kind of such Distributed Property which such holder would have received if such holder had
converted its Notes into Common Stock immediately prior to the Common Stock Record Date) each Conversion Rate shall be increased so that
the same shall be equal to the rate determined by multiplying such Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the Common
Stock Record Date with respect to such distribution by a fraction,

 

(i) the
numerator of which shall be the Current Market Price with respect to such Common Stock Record Date; and

 

(ii) the
denominator of which shall be the Current Market Price with respect to such Common Stock Record Date less the fair market value (as determined
by the Board of Directors acting in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a resolution of the Board of
Directors) on the Common Stock Record Date of the portion of the Distributed Property so distributed applicable to one share of Common
Stock, such adjustment to become effective immediately at the opening of business on the date following such Common Stock Record Date;
provided that if the then fair market value (as so determined) of the portion of the Distributed Property so distributed applicable to
one share of Common Stock is equal to or greater than the Current Market Price on the Common Stock Record Date, in lieu of the foregoing
adjustment, adequate provision shall be made so that each Noteholder shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount of the
Distributed Property such holder would have received had such holder converted each Note on the Common Stock Record Date. If such dividend
or distribution is not so paid or made, each Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect
if such dividend or distribution had not been declared. If the Board of Directors determines the fair market value of any distribution
for purposes of this Section 14.05(d) by reference to the actual or when issued trading market for any securities, it must in doing so
consider the prices in such market over the same period used in computing the Current Market Price with respect to Common Stock Record
Date.

 

    48

     

    

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if the Distributed Property distributed by Company to all or substantially all holders of its Common Stock consists of capital stock of,
or similar equity interests in, a Subsidiary or other business unit, each Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall be
equal to the rate determined by multiplying such Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the Common Stock Record Date
with respect to such distribution by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be the product of (x) the average of the VWAPs per share
of Common Stock over the fifteen (15) consecutive Trading Days (the “Spinoff Valuation Period”) commencing on and including
the Trading Day after the date on which “ex-dividend trading” commences on the Common Stock on the principal national or regional
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted and (y) the average fair market value (as determined by the Board
of Directors acting in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive, and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) over
the Spinoff Valuation Period of the portion of the Distributed Property so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock; and (2)
the denominator of which shall be the average of the VWAPs per share of Common Stock over the Spinoff Valuation Period, such adjustment
to become effective at the opening of business on the date following such Common Stock Record Date; provided that the Company may in lieu
of the foregoing adjustment make adequate provision so that each Noteholder shall have the right to receive upon conversion the amount
of Distributed Property such holder would have received had such holder converted each Note on the Common Stock Record Date with respect
to such distribution.

 

Rights, options or warrants
distributed by Company to all holders of Common Stock entitling the holders thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of the Company’s
capital stock (either initially or under certain circumstances), which rights, options or warrants, until the occurrence of a specified
event or events (“Trigger Event”): (i) are deemed to be transferred with such shares of Common Stock; (ii) are not exercisable;
and (iii) are also issued in respect of future issuances of Common Stock, shall be deemed not to have been distributed for purposes of
this Section 14.05(d) (and no adjustment to the Conversion Rates under this Section 14.05(d) will be required) until the occurrence of
the earliest Trigger Event, whereupon such rights, options and warrants shall be deemed to have been distributed and an appropriate adjustment
(if any is required) to the Conversion Rates shall be made under this Section 14.05(d).

 

If any such right or warrant,
including any such existing rights, options or warrants distributed prior to the date of this Indenture, are subject to events, upon the
occurrence of which such rights, options or warrants become exercisable to purchase different securities, evidences of indebtedness or
other assets, then the date of the occurrence of any and each such event shall be deemed to be the date of distribution and record date
with respect to new rights, options or warrants with such rights (and a termination or expiration of the existing rights, options or warrants
without exercise by any of the holders thereof). In addition, in the event of any distribution (or deemed distribution) of rights, options
or warrants, or any Trigger Event or other event (of the type described in the preceding sentence) with respect thereto that was counted
for purposes of calculating a distribution amount for which an adjustment to the Conversion Rates under this Section 14.05 was made, (1)
in the case of any such rights, options or warrants that shall all have been redeemed or repurchased without exercise by any holders thereof,
the Conversion Rates shall be readjusted upon such final redemption or repurchase to give effect to such distribution or Trigger Event,
as the case may be, as though it were a cash distribution, equal to the per share redemption or repurchase price received by a holder
or holders of Common Stock with respect to such rights, options or warrants (assuming such Holder had retained such rights, options or
warrants), made to all holders of Common Stock as of the date of such redemption or repurchase, and (2) in the case of such rights, options
or warrants that shall have expired or been terminated without exercise by any holders thereof, the Conversion Rates shall be readjusted
as if such rights, options and warrants had not been issued.

 

    49

     

    

 

No adjustment of the Conversion
Rates shall be made pursuant to this Section 14.05(d) in respect of rights, options or warrants distributed or deemed distributed on any
Trigger Event to the extent that such rights, options or warrants are actually distributed, or reserved by the Company for distribution,
to holders of Notes upon conversion by such holders of Notes to Common Stock.

 

For purposes of this Section
14.05(d) and Section 14.05(a) and Section 14.05(b), any dividend or distribution to which this Section 14.05(d) is applicable that also
includes shares of Common Stock, or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock (or both), shall be
deemed instead to be (1) a dividend or distribution of the evidences of indebtedness, assets or shares of capital stock other than such
shares of Common Stock or rights, options or warrants (and any Conversion Rate adjustments required by this Section 14.05(d) with respect
to such dividend or distribution shall then be made) immediately followed by (2) a dividend or distribution of such shares of Common Stock
or such rights, options or warrants (and any further Conversion Rate adjustments required by Section 14.05(a) and Section 14.05(b) with
respect to such dividend or distribution shall then be made), except that any shares of Common Stock included in such dividend or distribution
shall not be deemed “outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination” within the meaning of
Section 14.05(a).

 

(e) In
case a tender or exchange offer made by Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and
such tender or exchange offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to stockholders of consideration per
share of Common Stock having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors acting in good faith, whose determination shall
be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) that as of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders
or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) exceeds the VWAP per share of Common Stock on
the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Time, each Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall equal the rate determined
by multiplying such Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the Expiration Time by a fraction,

 

(i) the
numerator of which shall be the sum of (x) the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the aggregate consideration payable to stockholders
based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender or exchange offer) of all shares validly tendered or exchanged
and not withdrawn as of the Expiration Time (the shares deemed so accepted up to any such maximum, being referred to as the “Purchased
Shares”) and (y) the product of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (less any Purchased Shares) at the Expiration Time
and the VWAP per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day (or, if a Qualified Public Offering has not yet occurred, the Business Day)
next succeeding the Expiration Time, and

 

    50

     

    

 

(ii) the
denominator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered or exchanged shares) at the Expiration
Time multiplied by the VWAP per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day (or, if a Qualified Public Offering has not yet occurred, the
Business Day) next succeeding the Expiration Time, such adjustment to become effective at the opening of business on the date following
the Expiration Time. If Company is obligated to purchase shares pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer, but is permanently prevented
by applicable law from effecting any such purchases or all such purchases are rescinded, each Conversion Rate shall again be adjusted
to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

 

(f) In
case Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, at any time make a distribution of cash (excluding any cash that is distributed as part
of a distribution requiring a Conversion Rate adjustment pursuant to Section 14.05(d)) to all or substantially all holders of Common Stock,
then in such case each Conversion Rate shall be increased by multiplying such Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on
the Common Stock Record Date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to such distribution by a fraction, the numerator
of which shall be the Current Market Price with respect to such Common Stock Record Date and the denominator of which shall be an amount
equal to the Current Market Price with respect to such Common Stock Record Date less the amount of the distribution per share of Common
Stock, such adjustment to become effective at the opening of business on the date following the Common Stock Record Date.

 

(g) In
case Company shall issue (i) shares of Common Stock, or (ii) options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by
their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable
securities (collectively, “Convertible Securities”), without consideration or for consideration per share less than the Common
Stock fair market value on the date the price of such shares of Common Stock or such Convertible Securities is fixed by the Company (such
date, the “Pricing Date”), excluding:

 

(i) dividends,
distributions, rights, options or warrants as to which an adjustment was effected pursuant to Sections 14.05(a), 14.05(b), 14.05(c) or
14.05(d);

 

    51

     

    

 

(ii) shares
of Common Stock issued pursuant to any equity compensation plans;

 

(iii) shares
of Common Stock issued in connection with (x) the funding of an acquisition (whether by stock sale, merger, recapitalization, asset purchase
or otherwise) or (y) a joint venture or strategic alliance;

 

(iv) shares
of Common Stock issued in a tender offer or exchange offer by Company or any of its Subsidiaries as to which an adjustment was effected
pursuant to Section 14.05(e) above;

 

(v) public
or broadly marketed offerings (as determined by the Board of Directors of Company acting in good faith) and sales of shares of Common
Stock, securities convertible into shares of Common Stock or rights or warrants entitling the holder to purchase shares of Common Stock
for cash, conducted on a basis consistent with offerings by public companies of similar size in their own capital raising transactions;
each Conversion Rate shall be increased so that the same shall be equal to the rate determined by multiplying such Conversion Rate in
effect on the Pricing Date by a fraction: (x) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (B) the number of additional shares of Common Stock issued (or into which such Convertible Securities
may be exercised or converted); and (y) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the Pricing Date and (B) the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration receivable by Company
for the total number of shares of Common Stock so issued (or into which such Convertible Securities may be exercised or convert) would
purchase at fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive and described
in a resolution of the Board of Directors) on the last Trading Day preceding the Pricing Date.

 

Such adjustments shall be made
successively whenever any shares of Common Stock are issued (or into which such Convertible Securities may be exercised or converted).
Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 14.05(g) shall become effective after the close of business on the Pricing Date.

 

    52

     

    

 

For purposes of this Section
14.05(g), the aggregate consideration receivable by Company in connection with the issuance of such shares of Common Stock or Convertible
Securities shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the net offering price (including the fair market value (as determined by the Board
of Directors in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution of the Board of Directors) of any non-cash
consideration and after deduction of any related reasonable expenses payable to third parties) of all such securities plus, if applicable,
the minimum aggregate amount, if any, payable upon exercise or conversion of any such Convertible Securities into shares of Common Stock.

 

(h) For
purposes of this Section 14.05, the following terms shall have the meaning indicated:

 

(i)
“Current Market Price” means (i) at such times as the Common Stock is not listed on a National Securities Exchange, the fair
market value (as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a resolution
of the Board of Directors) of the Common Stock, and (ii) at such times as the Common Stock is listed on a National Securities Exchange,
the average of the VWAPs per share of Common Stock for the fifteen (15) consecutive Trading Days ending on the earlier of the date of
determination of the Common Stock holders entitled to receive such issuance or distribution and the day before the “Ex-date”
with respect to the issuance or distribution requiring such computation immediately prior to the date in question.

 

If another issuance, distribution,
subdivision or combination to which Section 14.05 applies occurs during the period applicable for calculating “Current Market Price”
pursuant to the definition in the preceding paragraph, “Current Market Price” shall be calculated for such period in a manner
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors to reflect the impact of such issuance, distribution, subdivision or combination on
the VWAP of the Common Stock during such period.

 

(ii)
“Common Stock Record Date” means, for purposes of this Section 14.05, with respect to any dividend, distribution or other
transaction or event in which the holders of Common Stock have the right to receive any cash, securities or other property or in which
the Common Stock (or other applicable security) is exchanged for or converted into any combination of cash, securities or other property,
the date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such cash, securities or other property (whether such date is fixed
by the Board of Directors or by statute, contract or otherwise).

 

(iii)
“Ex-date” means (A) at such time as the Common Stock is not listed on a National Securities Exchange, the applicable Common
Stock Record Date, and (B) (1) when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock
trades, regular way, on the relevant exchange or in the relevant market from which the VWAP was obtained without the right to receive
such issuance or distribution, and (2) when used with respect to any subdivision or combination of shares of Common Stock, means the first
date on which the Common Stock trades, regular way, on such exchange or in such market after the time at which such subdivision or combination
becomes effective.

 

    53

     

    

 

(i) The
Company may make such increases in a Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by Section 14.05(a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g)
as the Board of Directors considers to be advisable to avoid or diminish any income tax to holders of Common Stock or rights to purchase
Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of Common Stock (or rights to acquire stock) or from any event treated as such
for income tax purposes.

 

To the extent permitted by applicable
law, the Company from time to time may increase the Conversion Rate by any amount for any period of time if the period is at least twenty
(20) days, the increase is irrevocable during the period and the Board of Directors shall have made a determination that such increase
would be in the best interests of the Company, which determination shall be conclusive. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant
to the preceding sentence, the Company shall mail to holders of the Notes a notice of the increase at least fifteen (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.

 

(j) Whenever
a Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the Company shall promptly file with the Trustee and any Conversion Agent other than
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 shall have received such Officers’
Certificate, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any adjustment of the Conversion Rate and may assume that the last related
Conversion Rate of which it has knowledge is still in effect. Promptly after delivery of such Officers’ Certificate, the Company
shall prepare a notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and the date on which each
adjustment becomes effective and shall mail such notice of such adjustment of the Conversion Rate to the holder of each Note at his last
address appearing on the Note Register provided for in Section 2.5 of this Indenture, within twenty (20) days after the date of execution
of such Officers’ Certificate. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the legality or validity of any such adjustment.

 

(k) In
any case in which this Section 14.05 provides that an adjustment shall become effective on or after (1) a record date or Common Stock
Record Date for an event, (2) the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive a dividend or distribution pursuant
to Section 14.05(a), (d) or (f), (3) a date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive rights, options or warrants
pursuant to Section 14.05(b), or (4) the Expiration Time for any tender or exchange offer pursuant to Section 14.05(e), or (5) on the
Pricing Date pursuant to Section 14.05(g) (each a “Determination Date”), the Company may elect to defer such adjustment until
the occurrence of the applicable Adjustment Event (as hereinafter defined) by issuing to the holder of any Note converted after such Determination
Date and before the occurrence of such Adjustment Event, the additional shares of Common Stock or other securities issuable upon such
conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such Adjustment Event over and above the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion
before giving effect to such adjustment. For purposes of this Section 14.05(k), the term “Adjustment Event” shall mean:

 

(i) in
any case referred to in clause (1) hereof, the occurrence of such event,

 

    54

     

    

 

(ii) in
any case referred to in clause (2) hereof, the date any such dividend or distribution is paid or made,

 

(iii) in
any case referred to in clause (3) hereof, the date of expiration of such rights, options or warrants,

 

(iv) in
any case referred to in clause (4) hereof, the date a sale or exchange of Common Stock pursuant to such tender or exchange offer is consummated
and becomes irrevocable, and

 

(v) in
any case of an adjustment pursuant to Section 14.05(g), the date of the closing of such sale.

 

(l) For
purposes of this Section 14.05, the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury
of Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. Company
shall not pay any dividend or make any distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of Company.

 

(m) Upon
conversion of the Notes, the holders shall receive, in addition to any shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the associated
rights issued under any future shareholder rights plan Company adopts unless, prior to conversion, the rights have separated from the
Common Stock, expired, terminated or been redeemed or exchanged in accordance with such plan. If the holders receive rights under such
shareholder rights plans as described in the preceding sentence upon conversion of their Notes, then no other adjustment pursuant to this
Section 14.05 shall be made in connection with such shareholder rights plans. If the rights under a shareholder rights plan have separated
from the Common Stock, then each Conversion Rate shall be adjusted as provided in Section 14.05(d).

 

Section 14.06 OVERDUE
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST

 

(a) Overdue
principal and interest of the Notes shall be payable on demand by the Company at a rate of 7% per annum in cash.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE]

 

WHEELER REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT
TRUST, INC.

 

7.00% Subordinated Convertible
Notes due 2031

 

This Note is one of a duly authorized
issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its 7.00% Subordinated Convertible Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), issued under
and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of [●], 2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and WILMINGTON SAVINGS FUND
SOCIETY, FSB (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, privileges, protections, indemnities and immunities thereunder of the Trustee,
the Company and the Holders of the Notes. 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.

 

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.

 

Each Holder shall have the right
to receive payment of interest on any Interest Payment Date paid: (a) in cash; (b) in shares of Series B Preferred Stock; (c) in shares
of Series D Preferred Stock; or (d) in any combination of (a), (b), and/or (c). For purposes of determining the value of Series B Preferred
Stock and Series D Preferred Stock paid as interest on the Notes, each share of Series B Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock
shall be deemed have a value equal to the product of (x) the average of the VWAPs for the Series B Preferred Stock or the Series D Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, for the 15 consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Interest
Payment Date, and (y) 0.55. On each Regular Record Date, the Company shall instruct the Subscription Agent, with a copy to the Trustee,
whether the interest paid on the next interest payment date should be in the form of (a), (b), (c), or (d) above and, if (d), the percentage
of such interest to be paid in cash, Series B Preferred Stock and/or Series D Preferred Stock.

 

    A-5

     

    

 

Each Holder shall have the right
to receive payment of principal (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes on the Maturity Date, the Company may repay the principal
accrued on the Notes: (a) in cash; (b) in Common Stock as provided in Section 14.01(b) of this Indenture; or (c) in any combination of
(a) and (b). To the extent paid in cash, principal shall be considered paid on the date it is due if the Trustee or Paying Agent holds,
for the benefit of the Holders, as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time on that date U.S. legal tender designated for and sufficient to pay
such principal or interest then due, or the Company consummates the conversion of Notes in accordance with Article 14 by such date.

 

Upon a Change of Control, each
Note shall mandatorily convert into shares of Common Stock equal to: (i) the principal amount of each Note divided by (ii) the product
of (x) the average VWAPs for the Common Stock for the 15 consecutive Trading Days ending on the third Business Day immediately preceding
the date of such Change of Control and (y) 0.55.

 

The Notes are convertible, in
whole or in part, at any time, at the option of the Holders thereof, into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $6.25 per share
of Common Stock (the “Conversion Price”) (4 common shares for each $25.00 of principal amount of the Notes being converted
(the “Conversion Rate”)); provided, however, that if at any time after September 21, 2023 holders of Series D Preferred Stock
have required the Company to redeem (payable in cash or stock) in the aggregate at least 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, then
the Conversion Price shall be adjusted to the lower of (i) 55% of the Conversion Price or (ii) a 45% discount to the lowest price at which
any Series D Preferred Stock was converted by a Holder thereof into the Company’s Common Stock.

 

The Notes are initially issuable
in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $25 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.
