Holders in person or by an agent or proxy duly appointed in writing by such Holders or (B) the record of Holders of Notes voting in favor thereof, either in person or by proxies duly appointed in writing, at any meeting of Holders of Notes duly
called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article IX. Such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments or record is delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Company. The Trustee
shall promptly deliver to the Company copies of all such instruments and records delivered to the Trustee. Such instrument or instruments and record (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the
“Act” of the Holders of Notes signing such instrument or instruments and so voting at such meeting. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent or proxy, or of the holding by any Person of a Note,
shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.1) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Company if made in the manner provided in this Section. The record of any meeting of Holders of Notes shall be proved

the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority.

 (4) The fact and date of execution of any such instrument or writing and the authority of the Person executing the same may also be proved

 (5) The Company may, in the circumstances permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, set any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders
entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or to vote on any action, authorized or permitted by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders. Promptly and in any case not later
than ten days after setting a record date, the Company shall notify the Trustee and the Holders of such record date. If not set by the Company prior to the first solicitation of a Holder made by any Person in respect of any such action, or, in the
case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 14.1) prior to such first
solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date, the Holders on such date (or their duly appointed agents or proxies), and only such Persons, shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action, whether or not
such Holders remain Holders after such record date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, any notice, declaration or direction referred to in
the next paragraph.

occurred and is continuing and the Trustee shall not have given such a declaration to the Company, or (iii) any direction referred to in Section 5.12, if the Trustee shall not have taken the action specified in such direction, then, with
respect to clauses (ii) and (iii), a record date shall automatically and without any action by the Company or the Trustee be set for determining the Holders entitled to join in such declaration or direction, which record date shall be the close
of business on the tenth day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day thereafter) following the day on which the Trustee receives such declaration or direction, and, with respect to clause (i), the Trustee may set any day as a
record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to join in such notice of default. Promptly after such receipt by the Trustee of any such declaration or direction referred to in clause (ii) or (iii), and promptly after setting
any record date with respect to clause (i), and as soon as practicable thereafter, the Trustee shall notify the Company and the Holders of any such record date so fixed. The Holders on such record date (or their duly appointed agents or proxies),
and only such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such notice, declaration or direction shall have become effective by
virtue of Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes on such record date (or their duly appointed agents or proxies) having joined therein on or prior to the 90th day after such record date, such notice, declaration or direction shall
automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent a Holder (or a duly appointed agent or proxy thereof) from giving, before or after the expiration of
such 90-day period, a notice, declaration or direction contrary to or different from, or, after the expiration of such period, identical to, the notice, declaration or direction to which such record date relates, in which event a new record date in
respect thereof shall be set pursuant to this paragraph. In addition, nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any notice, declaration or direction of the type referred to in this paragraph given at any time to the Trustee
and the Company by Holders (or their duly appointed agents or proxies) of the requisite principal amount of Notes on the date such notice, declaration or direction is so given. 
 (6) Except as provided in Sections 5.12 and 5.13, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act of the
Holder of any Note shall bind every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done
by the Trustee or the Company in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note. 
 (7) The provisions of
this Section 1.4 are subject to the provisions of Section 9.5.

 SECTION 1.5 Notices, Etc. to Trustee and Company. 
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, election, waiver or other Act of Holders of Notes or other document provided or permitted
by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with, 
 (1) the Trustee by any Holder of Notes or by the Company shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with a Responsible Officer of the Trustee and received at its Corporate Trust Office, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Holders
of Notes and the Company by the Trustee; or 
 (2) the Company by the Trustee or by any Holder of Notes shall be sufficient for every purpose
hereunder (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing, mailed, first-class postage prepaid, or telecopied and confirmed by mail, first-class postage prepaid, or delivered by hand or overnight courier, addressed to the Company at One
American Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44144-2398, Attention: General Counsel, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the Company. 
 All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by hand, if personally delivered; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail, registered or certified with

postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Note affected by such event, at the address of such Holder as it appears in the Note Register, not earlier than the earliest date and not later than the latest date prescribed for the giving of such notice.

 Neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder of a Note shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders of Notes. In case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification to Holders
of Notes as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall constitute a sufficient notification to such Holders for every purpose hereunder. 
 Such notice shall be deemed to have been given when such notice is mailed. 
 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 of Notes 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. 
  

 14 

 All such notices and communications shall be deemed to have been duly given: at the time delivered by
hand, if personally delivered; five Business Days after being deposited in the mail, registered or certified with postage prepaid, if mailed; when answered back if telexed; when receipt acknowledged, if telecopied; and the next Business Day after
timely delivery to the courier, if sent by nationally recognized overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery.

 SECTION 1.9 Separability Clause. 
 In case any provision in this Indenture or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 
 SECTION 1.10
Benefits of Indenture. 
 Except as provided in the next sentence, nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall
give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors and assigns hereunder and the Holders of Notes, any benefit or legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. The provisions of Article XII are intended to be
for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable directly by, the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

 THIS INDENTURE AND THE SECURITIES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE UNITED STATES OF

 SECTION 1.12 Legal Holidays. 
 In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Repurchase Date or Stated Maturity of any Note or the last day on which a Holder of a Note has a right to convert his Note shall not be a Business Day at a Place of Payment or Place of
Conversion, as the case may be, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, or the payment of the Repurchase Price (whether the same is 
  

 15 

 payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock in the case of the Repurchase Price) with respect to, or delivery for
conversion of, such Note need not be made at such Place of Payment or Place of Conversion, as the case may be, on or by such day, but may be made on or by the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment or Place of Conversion, as the case
may be, with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Repurchase Date, or at the Stated Maturity or by such last day for conversion; provided, however, that in the case that payment is made on such succeeding Business Day,
no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Repurchase Date, Stated Maturity or last day for conversion, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 1.13 Conflict with Trust Indenture Act. 
 If
any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with a provision of the Trust Indenture Act that is required under such Act to be a part of and govern this Indenture, the latter provision shall control. If any provision of this Indenture
modifies or excludes any provision of the Trust Indenture Act that may be so modified or excluded, the latter provision shall be deemed to apply to this Indenture as so modified or to be excluded, as the case may be. Until such time as this
Indenture shall be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, this Indenture, the Company and the Trustee shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be subject to and governed by the Trust Indenture Act to the same extent as would be the case if this
Indenture were so qualified on the date hereof.

 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its “7.00%
Convertible Subordinated Notes due July 15, 2006” (herein called the “Notes”), limited in aggregate principal amount to U.S. $159,122,000, issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of May 26, 2006 (herein called the
“Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon
which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denominations
as requested by the Holder surrendering the same upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The Trustee upon such surrender by the Holder will issue the new Notes in the requested
denominations. 
 No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. The Company may not optionally redeem the Notes at any time. 
 In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note or the last day on which a Holder of a Note
has a right to convert his Note shall be, at any Place of Payment or Place of Conversion as the case may be, a day on which banking institutions at such Place of Payment or Place of Conversion are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to
close, then payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, or delivery for conversion of such Note need not be made on or by such date at such place but may be made on or by the next succeeding day at such place which is not a day on which banking
institutions are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment or the date fixed for repurchase, or by such last day for conversion, and no interest shall accrue on
the amount so payable for the period after such date. 
 Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of
this Note is entitled, at his option, at any time on or before the close of business on July 15, 2006, unless the Notes have been previously repurchased, to convert this Note (or any portion of the principal amount hereof that is an integral
multiple of U.S. $1,000, provided that the unconverted portion of such principal amount is U.S. $1,000 or any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof) into the right to receive (x) the Principal Return, (y) the Net Shares, if
any, and (z) Additional Cash, if any, based on an initial Conversion Rate of 71.9466 shares of Common Stock for each U.S. $1,000 principal amount of Notes (or at the current adjusted Conversion Rate if an adjustment has been made as provided in
the Indenture) by surrender of this Note, duly endorsed or assigned to the Company or in blank and, in case such surrender shall be made during the period from the close of business on the Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the
Interest Payment Date (except if this Note is repurchasable on a Repurchase Date occurring during such period and is surrendered for such conversion during such period (including any Notes or portions thereof submitted for repurchase on a Repurchase
Date that is the Regular Record Date or the Interest Payment Date, as the case may be)), also accompanied 
  

 20 

 by payment in New York Clearing House or other funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable
on such Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of this Note then being converted, and also the conversion notice hereon duly executed, to the Company at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at such other office or agency of the
Company, subject to any laws or regulations applicable thereto and subject to the right of the Company to terminate the appointment of any Conversion Agent (as defined below) as may be designated by it for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate (each a “Conversion Agent”), provided, further, that if this Note or portion hereof is repurchasable on a Repurchase Date occurring, in
either case, during the period from the close of business on the Regular Record Date to the opening of business on the Interest Payment Date (including any Notes or portions thereof submitted for repurchase on a Repurchase Date that is the Regular
Record Date or the Interest Payment Date, as the case may be) and is surrendered for conversion during such period (or on the last Business Day prior to the Regular Record Date or Interest Payment Date in case of any Note (or portion thereof)
submitted for repurchase on a Repurchase Date on the Regular Record Date or Interest Payment Date, as the case may be), then the Holder of this Note on such Regular Record Date will be entitled to receive the interest accruing hereon from
January 15, 2006 to the Interest Payment Date and the Holder of this Note who converts this Note or a portion hereof during such period shall not be required to pay such interest upon surrender of this Note for conversion. Subject to the
provisions of the preceding sentence and, in the case of a conversion after the close of business on the Regular Record Date and on or before the close of business on the Interest Payment Date, to the right of the Holder of this Note (or any
Predecessor Note of record as of such Regular Record Date) to receive the related installment of interest to the extent and under the circumstances provided in the Indenture, no cash payment or adjustment is to be made on conversion for interest
accrued hereon from January 15, 2006, or for dividends on the Common Stock issued on conversion hereof. The Company shall thereafter deliver to the Holder the Principal Return, the Net Shares, if any, and Additional Cash, if any, (together with
any cash adjustment, as provided in the Indenture) into which this Note is convertible and such delivery will be deemed to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of this Note. No fractions of shares or scrip representing
fractions of shares will be issued on conversion, but instead of any fractional interest (calculated to the nearest l/100th of a share) the Company shall pay the Additional Cash as provided in the Indenture. The Conversion Rate is subject to
adjustment as provided in the Indenture. In addition, the Indenture provides that in case of certain consolidations or mergers to which the Company is a party (other than a consolidation or merger that does not result in any reclassification,
conversion, exchange or cancellation of the Common Stock) or the conveyance, transfer, sale or lease of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company, the Indenture shall be amended, without the consent of any Holders of Notes,
so that this Note, if then Outstanding, will be convertible thereafter, during the period this Note shall be convertible as specified above, only into the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation,
merger, conveyance, transfer, sale or lease by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company into which this Note could have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale or lease
(assuming such holder of Common Stock is not a Constituent Person or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person, failed to exercise any rights of election and received per share the kind and amount received per share by 
  

 21 

 a plurality of Non-electing Shares). No adjustment in the Conversion Rate will be made until such adjustment would
require an increase or decrease of at least one percent of such rate, provided that any adjustment that would otherwise be made will be carried forward and taken into account in the computation of any subsequent adjustment. 
 If a Change in Control occurs, the Holder of this Note, at the Holder’s option, shall have the right, in accordance with the provisions of the
Indenture, to require the Company to repurchase this Note (or any portion of the principal amount hereof that is at least $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the portion of the principal amount of this Note to
be Outstanding after such repurchase is at least equal to U.S. $1,000) for cash at a Repurchase Price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus interest accrued to the Repurchase Date. At the option of the Company, the Repurchase Price may
be paid in cash or, subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture, by delivery of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the Repurchase Price. For purposes of this paragraph, the fair market value of shares of Common Stock
shall be determined by the Company and shall be equal to 95% of the average of the Closing Prices Per Share for the five consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding and including the third Trading Day prior to the Repurchase Date. Whenever in
this Note there is a reference, in any context, to the principal of any Note as of any time, such reference shall be deemed to include reference to the Repurchase Price payable in respect of such Note to the extent that such Repurchase Price is, was
or would be so payable at such time, and express mention of the Repurchase Price in any provision of this Note shall not be construed as excluding the Repurchase Price so payable in those provisions of this Note when such express mention is not
made; provided, however, that, for the purposes of the second succeeding paragraph, such reference shall be deemed to include reference to the Repurchase Price only to the extent the Repurchase Price is payable in cash. 
 [The following paragraph shall appear in each Global Note: 
 In the event of a deposit or withdrawal of an interest in this Note, including an exchange, transfer, repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, the Trustee, as custodian of the Depositary, shall make an
adjustment on its records to reflect such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.] 
 [The following paragraph
shall appear in each Note that is not a Global Note: 
 In the event of repurchase or conversion of this Note in part only, a new Note or
Notes for the unrepurchased or unconverted portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof.] 
 The indebtedness evidenced by
this Note is, to the extent and in the manner provided in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company, and this Note is issued subject to such provisions of the
Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such action as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
  

 22 

 If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes, together with
accrued interest to the date of declaration, may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable, together with accrued interest to
the date of declaration, and (ii) of interest on any overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, overdue interest, all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest on the
Notes shall terminate. 
 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 Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with either (a) the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, or (b) by the adoption of a resolution, at a meeting of Holders of the Outstanding Notes at which a quorum is present, by the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes represented and entitled to vote at such meeting. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, 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 Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other Note. 
 As provided in and subject
to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note 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 thereunder, unless such Holder
shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes 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 the Notes 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 Note for the enforcement of any payment of
principal hereof, premiums if any, or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein or for the enforcement of the right to convert this Note as provided in the Indenture. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert this Note as provided in the Indenture. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable on the Note Register upon
surrender of this Note for 
  

 23 

 registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at such other office or agency of the Company as
may be designated by it for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (which shall initially be an office or agency of the Trustee), or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees by the Registrar. 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 recover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentation of
this 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 this Note is registered, as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such Note be overdue, and
neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 No recourse for the payment of the
principal (and premium, if any) or interest on this Note and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of the creation of any
indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, employee, agent, officer or director or subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through
the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of consideration
for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Trustee, as Note Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized
representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Note, the Trustee shall, subject to Section 3.5(3) and as otherwise provided in this Article III, authenticate and deliver any
Notes issuable in exchange for such Global Note (or any portion thereof) to or upon the order of, and registered in such names as may be directed by, the Depositary or its authorized representative. Upon the request of the Trustee in connection with
the occurrence of any of the events specified in the preceding paragraph, the Company shall promptly make available to the Trustee a reasonable supply of Notes that are not in the form of Global Notes. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon any
order, direction or request of the Depositary or its authorized representative which is given or made pursuant to this Article III if such order, direction or request is given or made in accordance with the Applicable Procedures. 
 (iv) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Note or any portion thereof,
whether pursuant to this Article III or otherwise, shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a registered Global Note, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Note or
a nominee thereof, in which case such Note shall be authenticated and delivered in definitive, fully registered form, without interest coupons. 
 (v) The Depositary or its nominee, as registered owner of a Global Note, shall be the Holder of such Global Note for all purposes under the Indenture and the Notes, and owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note shall hold such
interests pursuant to the Applicable Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Note will be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary or
its nominee or its Agent Members and such owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note will not be considered the owners or holders thereof. 
 (2) Non-Global Notes. Notes issued upon the events described in Section 3.4(l)(ii) shall be in definitive, fully registered form, without interest coupons.

 SECTION 3.5 Registration; Registration of Transfer and Exchange; Restrictions on Transfer. 
 (1) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office 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 Trustee is hereby appointed “Note Registrar” for the
purpose of registering Notes and transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided. 
 Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Note at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 10.2 for such purpose, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new
Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Indenture. 
 At the option of the Holder, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.5, 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 any such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 3.5, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver,
the Notes which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive. 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, the Trustee and the Note Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
 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. 
 No service
charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes except as provided in Section 3.6, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.4, 8.5, 11.2 or 13.3 (other than where any shares of Common Stock are to be issued or delivered in a name other than that of the
Holder of the Note) not involving any transfer and other than any stamp and other duties, if any, which may be imposed in connection with any such transfer or exchange by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, which shall
be paid by the Company. 
 (2) Certain Transfers and Exchanges. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Notes,
transfers and exchanges of Notes and beneficial interests in a Global Note of the kinds specified in this Section 3.5(2) shall be made only in accordance with this Section 3.5(2). 
  

 33 

 (i) Global Note to Non-Global Note. In the event that non-Global Notes are to be issued pursuant
to Section 3.4(1)(ii) in connection with any transfer of Notes, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (2)(i) and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Note
Registrar, of a Company Order from the Company directing the Trustee, as Note Registrar, to (x) authenticate and deliver one or more Notes of the same aggregate principal amount as the beneficial interest in the Global Note to be transferred,
such instructions to contain the name or names of the designated transferee or transferees, the authorized denomination or denominations of the Notes to be so issued and appropriate delivery instructions and (y) decrease the beneficial interest
of a specified Agent Member’s account in a Global Note by a specified principal amount not greater than the principal amount of such Global Note, then the Trustee, as Note Registrar, shall decrease the principal amount of the Global Note by the
specified amount and authenticate and deliver Notes in accordance with such instructions from the Company as provided in Section 3.4(1)(iii). 
 (ii) Non-Global Note to Global Note. If the Holder of a Note (other than a Global Note) wishes at any time to transfer all or any portion of such Note to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial
interest in the Global Note, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this Clause (2)(ii) and subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Trustee, as Note Registrar, of such Note as provided in
Section 3.5(1) and instructions from the Company directing that a beneficial interest in the Global Note in a specified principal amount not greater than the principal amount of such Note be credited to a specified Agent Member’s account,
then the Trustee, as Note Registrar, shall cancel such Note (and issue a new Note in respect of any untransferred portion thereof) as provided in Section 3.5(1) and increase the principal amount of the Global Note by the specified principal
amount as provided in Section 3.4(1)(iii). 
 (iii) Exchanges between Global Note and Non-Global Note. A beneficial interest in a
Global Note may be exchanged for a Note that is not a Global Note only as provided in Section 3.4 or only if such exchange occurs in connection with a transfer effected in accordance with Clause 2(i) above. A Note that is not a Global Note may
be exchanged for a beneficial interest in a Global Note only if such exchange occurs in connection with a transfer effected in accordance with Clause (2)(ii) above. 
 (3) Neither the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor any of their agents shall (i) have any duty to monitor compliance with or with respect to any federal or state or other securities or tax laws or (ii) have any
duty to obtain documentation on any transfers or exchanges other than as specifically required hereunder. 
 SECTION 3.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or
Stolen Notes. 
 If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver in exchange therefor a new Note of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. 
 If
there be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee: 
 (1) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and

  

 34 

 (2) such security or indemnity as may be satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee to save each of them
and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in
lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount and 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, but subject to any conversion rights, may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay
such Note, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding paragraph. 
 Upon the issuance of any new Note under this
Section 3.6, 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 (other than any stamp and other duties, if any, which may be imposed in connection
therewith by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein, which shall be paid by the Company) and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 
 Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional
contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and such new Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately
with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 
 The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the
extent lawful) all other rights and remedies of any Holder with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes. 
 SECTION 3.7 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved. 
 Interest on any Note which is payable, and is punctually paid
or duly provided for, on the Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest. 
 Any interest on any Note which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on the Interest Payment Date (herein called “Defaulted
Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case, as provided in Clause
(1) or (2) below: 
  

 35 

 (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names the
Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing
of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note, the date of the proposed payment and the Special Record Date, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount
proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. The Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than
10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to
be mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the
Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall
no longer be payable pursuant to the following Clause (2). 
 (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment
pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 
 Subject to the foregoing provisions of this
Section and Section 3.5, each Note delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such
other Note. 
 Interest on any Note which is converted in accordance with Section 11.2 during a Record Date Period shall be payable in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11.2. 
 SECTION 3.8 Persons Deemed Owners. 
 Prior to due presentment of a Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and any agent of the Company, the Trustee or
any Paying Agent 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, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Note and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor any agent of the Company, the Trustee or any Paying Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
  

 36 

 SECTION 3.9 Cancellation. 
 All Notes surrendered for payment, repurchase, registration of transfer or exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee. All Notes so delivered to the
Trustee shall be cancelled promptly by the Trustee (or its agent). No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 3.9. All cancelled Notes held by the Trustee shall be disposed of
as directed by a Company Order. 
 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 Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use) in addition to serial numbers; if
so, the Trustee shall use such CUSIP numbers in addition to serial numbers in notices to repurchase 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
either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice to repurchase and that reliance may be placed only on the serial or other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such repurchase shall not be affected by any defect in or
omission of such CUSIP numbers. 
 ARTICLE IV

the purpose an amount in cash sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal, premium, if any, and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of
Notes which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity; 
 (2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable
hereunder by the Company; and 
 (3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each

 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under Section 6.7, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 6.12, if money shall have

money has been deposited with the Trustee. 
 All moneys deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.1 (and held by it or any

debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action. 
 SECTION 5.2 Acceleration of
Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(6) or 5.1
(7)) occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may, subject to the provisions of Article XII, declare the principal of all the Notes to be due
and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal and all accrued interest thereon shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of
Default specified in Section 5.1(6) or 5.1(7) occurs, the principal of, and accrued interest on, all the Notes shall, subject to the provisions of Article XII, ipso facto become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other Act
of the Holders or any act on the part of the Trustee. 
 At any time after such declaration of acceleration has been made and before a
judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as 
  

 40 

 hereinafter in this Article V provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, by
written notice to the Company and the Trustee, may, on behalf of all Holders, rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if 
 (1) the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay: 
 (i) all overdue interest on all Notes,

 (ii) the principal of and premium, if any, on any Notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and any
interest thereon at the rate borne by the Notes, 
 (iii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest upon overdue interest at a rate
of 7.00% per annum, and 
 (iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
 (2) all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal
of and any premium and interest on, Notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13; and 
 (3) such rescission and annulment would not conflict with any judgment or decree issued in appropriate judicial proceedings regarding the payment by the
Trustee to the Holders of the amounts referred to in 5.2(1). 
 No rescission or annulment referred to above shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 SECTION 5.3 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by
Trustee. 
 The Company covenants that if: 
 (1) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Note when it becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or 
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on any Note at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the
Trustee but subject to the provisions of Article XII pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal and interest and interest on any overdue principal and premium, if any,
and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on any overdue interest, at a rate of 7.00% per annum, and in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the reasonable costs and expenses of collection, including the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 
  

 41 

 If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as
trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the
Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated. 
 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 of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise
of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 
 SECTION 5.4 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 the creditors of either, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of, and any interest on, 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 or interest) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act in order to have the claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any proceeding, 
 (1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, premium, if any, and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and 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, in each of the foregoing cases, 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 of Notes allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

 (2) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder
of Notes 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 of Notes to pay to the Trustee any amount due to 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 6.7. 
  

 42 

 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Note 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 of a Note 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 similar official and be a member of the Creditor’s Committee. 
 SECTION 5.5 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 as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which judgment has been recovered. 
 SECTION 5.6 Application of Money Collected. 
 Subject to Article XII, any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V 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
on account of principal, 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 6.7; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of, premium, if any, or 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, premium, if any, and interest, respectively; 
 THIRD: To such other Person or Persons, if any, to the extent entitled thereto; and 
 FOURTH: Any remaining amounts shall be repaid to the Company. 
 SECTION 5.7 Limitation on Suits. 
 No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder,
unless: 
 (1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default; 
  

 43 

 (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
 (3) such Holder
or Holders have offered to the Trustee, and if requested, shall have provide, reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 
 (4) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity (or if requested, receipt of indemnity) has failed to
institute any such proceeding; and 
 (5) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60
day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of
this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein
provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such Holders. 
 SECTION 5.8 Unconditional Right of Holders to
Receive Principal, Premium and Interest and to Convert. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, but subject to the
provisions of Article XII, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and (subject to Section 3.7) interest on such Note on the respective Stated
Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of repurchase, on the Repurchase Date), and to convert such Note in accordance with Article XI, and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment and right to convert, and such rights
shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. 
 SECTION 5.9 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

 If the Trustee or any Holder of a Note 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, the Trustee and the Holders
of Notes shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and such 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 3.6, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes is intended to be 
  

 44 

 exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative
and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or
employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 
 SECTION 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 any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders of Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as
may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or (subject to the limitations contained in this Indenture) by the Holders of Notes as the case may be. 
 SECTION 5.12 Control by Holders of Notes. 
 The Holders of 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 
 (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, and 
 (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 
 (3) subject to Section 6.1, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee in good faith shall determine
that the action so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or would be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining in such direction. 
 SECTION 5.13 Waiver of Past Defaults. 
 The Holders, either (i) through the written consent of
not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes or (ii) by the adoption of a resolution, at a meeting of Holders of the Outstanding Notes at which a quorum is present, by the Holders of at least 66-2/3% in principal amount
of the Outstanding Notes represented at such meeting, may on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past default hereunder and its consequences, except a default (A) in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on
any Note, or (B) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article VIII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected. The provisions of this section modify the provisions of
Section 316(a)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
 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 impair any right consequent thereon. 
  

 45 

 SECTION 5.14 Undertaking for Costs. 
 All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note by his 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 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, 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 neither the provisions of this Section 5.14 nor the Trust Indenture Act shall apply to any suit instituted by the Company, 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 of any Note for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on any Note on or after the respective Stated Maturity or Maturities expressed in such Note (or, in the case of repurchase, on or after the Repurchase Date) or for the enforcement of the right to convert any Note in accordance with Article
XI. 
 SECTION 5.15 Waiver of Stay, Usury or Extension Laws. 
 The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or
take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, usury 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 the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do
so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede by reason of such law 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. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 SECTION 6.1 Certain Duties and
Responsibilities. 
 The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee shall be provided by this Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for
securities issued pursuant to indentures qualified thereunder. 
 (1) 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 
  

 46 

 (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, 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 which by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof.

 (2) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 
 (3) 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 (3) shall not be construed to limit the effect of paragraph
(l) of this Section; 
 (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 that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with
respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of (i) the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes or (ii) by the adoption of a resolution, at a meeting of
Holders of the Outstanding Notes at which a quorum is present, by the Holders of at least 66 2/3% in principal
amount of Outstanding Notes represented at such meeting, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture;
and 
 (iv) no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights 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. 
 (4) 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. 
 SECTION 6.2 Notice of Defaults. 
 Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default hereunder as to which the Trustee has
received written notice, the Trustee shall give to all Holders of Notes, in the manner 
  

 47 

 provided in Section 1.6, notice of such default, unless such default shall have been cured or waived; provided,
however, that, except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee
or a trust committee of directors or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interest of the Holders; and provided, further, that in the case of any default of the character
specified in Section 5.1(4), no such notice to Holders of Notes shall be given until at least 60 days after the occurrence thereof or, if applicable, the cure period specified therein. For the purpose of this Section, the term
“default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default. 
 SECTION 6.3 Certain Rights of Trustee. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1: 
 (1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers’ Certificate, other certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document (collectively, the “Documents”) believed by it to be genuine and
to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties, and the Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in such Documents; 
 (2) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

 (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be the one specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and rely upon an Officers’ Certificate or Opinion of Counsel;

 (4) the Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and
complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon; 
 (5) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders of Notes pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have
offered, and, if requested by the Trustee, delivered, to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; 
 (6) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, coupon, other evidence of indebtedness 
  

 48 

 or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such
facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney; 
 (7) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys
and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder; and 
 (8) the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder. 
 SECTION 6.4 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. 
 The recitals contained herein and in the Notes (except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication) shall be taken as the statements of the Company,
and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture, of the Notes or of the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes. The Trustee
shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Company of Notes or the proceeds thereof. 
 SECTION
6.5 May Hold Notes, Act as Trustee Under Other Indentures. 
 The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any
Conversion Agent or any other agent of the Company or the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee,
Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Conversion Agent or such other agent. 
 The Trustee may become and act as trustee under other indentures
under which other securities, or certificates of interest or participation in other securities, of the Company are outstanding in the same manner as if it were not Trustee hereunder. 
 SECTION 6.6 Money Held in Trust. 
 Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder
except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. 
 SECTION 6.7 Compensation and Reimbursement. 
 The Company agrees 
 (1) to pay to the Trustee
from time to time such reasonable compensation as the Company and the Trustee shall from time to time agree in writing for its acceptance of this Indenture and for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust); 
  

 49 

 (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee (including costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder of Notes or any other
Person) or liability in connection with the exercise of any of its powers or duties hereunder) in accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel),
except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith; and 
 (3) to indemnify the Trustee
(and its directors, officers, employees and agents) for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of
this Indenture or the trusts, hereunder including the reasonable costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties
hereunder. The Company shall defend any claim or threatened claim asserted against an indemnitee for which it may seek indemnity, and the indemnitee shall cooperate in the defense unless, in the reasonable opinion of the indemnitee’s counsel,
the indemnitee has an interest adverse to the Company or a potential conflict of interest exists between the indemnitee and the Company, in which case the indemnitee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and
expenses of such counsel; provided that the Company shall only be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of one law firm (in addition to local counsel) in any one action or separate substantially similar actions in the same
jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, such law firm to be designated by the indemnitee. 
 As security
for the performance of the Company under this Section 6.7, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders, and the
Notes are hereby subordinated to such prior lien. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.7 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances, and any other amounts
due the Trustee shall constitute an additional obligation hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this indenture. 
 When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder (including its services as Note Registrar or Paying Agent, if so appointed by the Company) after an Event of Default
specified in Section 5.1(6) or Section 5.1(7), the expenses (including the reasonable charges of its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of the administration under any applicable Federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law. 
 The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Indenture or the
earlier resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
  

 50 

 SECTION 6.8 Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. 
 There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such, having (or
being part of a holding company with) a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S. $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, and in good standing. The Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee shall maintain
an established place of business in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Currently, such place of business is located at U.S. Bank National Association, Mail Code: EX-NY-WALL, 100 Wall Street, Suite 1600, New York, NY 10005. If such
corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article and a successor shall be appointed pursuant to Section 6.9. 
 SECTION 6.9 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. 
 (1) No resignation or removal of the
Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.10. 
 (2) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required
by Section 6.10 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

 (3) The Trustee may be removed at any time by an Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, delivered
to the Trustee and the Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 6.10 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the removed Trustee may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (4) If at any time: 
 (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 6.8 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any Holder
of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months, or 
 (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall
be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the 
  

 51 

 purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then, in any such case (i) the Company by a Board Resolution
may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 5.14, any Holder of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (5) If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or
become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of this Section and
Section 6.10. 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 in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 6.10, 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 of Notes and accepted appointment in the manner required by this Section and Section 6.10, any Holder
of a Note who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note 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. 
 (6) The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders of Notes
in the manner provided in Section 1.6. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 
 SECTION 6.10 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 
 Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment of 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 eligible under this Article.

  

 52 

 SECTION 6.11 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee (including the trust created by this Indenture), shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise 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. 
 SECTION 6.12 Authenticating Agents. 
 The Trustee may, with the consent of the Company, appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents acceptable to the Company with respect to the Notes which
shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Notes issued upon exchange or substitution pursuant to this Indenture. 
 Notes authenticated by an Authenticating Agent shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder, and every reference in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Notes by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication
executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be subject to acceptance by the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of
America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent and subject to supervision or examination by government or other fiscal authority. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease
to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.12, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 6.12. 
 Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent,
provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.12, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate
the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the 
  

 53 

 Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.12, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be subject to acceptance by the Company. Any successor Authenticating Agent
upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be
appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.12. 
 The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services under this Section 6.12. 
 If an Authenticating Agent is appointed with respect to the Notes
pursuant to this Section 6.12, the Notes may have endorsed thereon, in addition to or in lieu of the Trustee’s certification of authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form: 
 This is one of the Notes referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 SECTION 6.14 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Company.

indenture comply with this Article and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with, together with any documents required under Section 8.3. 
 SECTION 7.2 Successor Substituted.

 The Company may at any time and from time to time vary or terminate the appointment of any such agent or appoint any additional agents for any or all of
such purposes; provided, however, that until all of the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, or moneys sufficient to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes have been made available for payment and
either paid or returned to the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.3, the Company will maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment and
conversion, where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the
Trustee, and notice to the Holders in accordance with Section 1.6, of the appointment or termination of any such agents and of the location and any change in the location of any such office or agency. 
 The Company hereby initially designates the Trustee as Paying Agent and Conversion Agent, and each of the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee and the
office or agency of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, located at U.S. Bank National Association, Mail Code: EX-NY-WALL, 100 Wall Street, Suite 1600, New York, NY 10005, one such office or agency of the Company for each

 SECTION 10.3 Money for Note Payments To Be Held in Trust. 
 If the Company shall act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the
Notes, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided and the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 
 Whenever the Company shall have one or more
Paying Agents, it will, no later than the opening of business on each due date of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Notes, deposit with the Trustee a sum in funds immediately payable on the payment date sufficient to pay the
principal, premium, if any, or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium, if any, or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the
Trustee of any failure so to act.

instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section, that such Paying Agent will: 
 (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on Notes for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein
provided; 
 (2) 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, premium, if any, or interest; and 
 (3) 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 by such Paying Agent. 
 The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the
satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, 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 money.

 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,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium, if any, 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. 
 SECTION 10.4 Existence. 
 Subject to Article VII, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its existence, rights
(charter and statutory) and franchises; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if 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 disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
  

 63 

 SECTION 10.5 Maintenance of Properties. 
 The Company will cause all properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Significant Subsidiary to be maintained and
kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment 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 and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall prevent the Company from discontinuing the operation or maintenance of
any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Significant Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 
 SECTION 10.6 Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. 
 The Company will pay or discharge, or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same may become delinquent, (i) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Company or any Significant
Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, (ii) all claims for labor, materials and supplies which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien or charge upon the property of the Company or any
Significant Subsidiary, and (iii) all stamps and other duties, if any, which may be imposed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein in connection with the issuance, transfer, exchange or conversion of any Notes or with
respect to this Indenture; provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim (A) if the failure to do so
will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse impact on the Company, or (B) if the amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings. 
 SECTION 10.7 Registration and Listing. 
 The Company (i) will effect all registrations with, and obtain all approvals by, all governmental authorities that may be necessary under any United States Federal or state law (including the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act and state securities and Blue Sky laws) before any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Notes are issued and delivered, and qualified or listed as contemplated by clause (ii) (it being understood that the Company shall not
be required to register the Notes under the Securities Act), and (ii) will qualify any shares of Common Stock required to be issued and delivered upon conversion of Notes, prior to such issuance or delivery, for listing on the New York Stock

 64 

 SECTION 10.8 Statement by Officers as to Default. 
 The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’
Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or
requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 
 The Company will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon becoming aware of any default in the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or
condition contained in this Indenture, or any Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying with particularity such default or Event of Default and further stating what action the Company has taken, is taking or proposes to take with

 The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition set forth in Sections 10.4 to 10.6, inclusive
(other than a covenant or condition which under Article VIII cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected), if before the time for such compliance the Holders shall, through the written consent
of, or the adoption of a resolution at a meeting of Holders of the Outstanding Notes at which a quorum is present by, not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, either waive such compliance in such instance or generally
waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the
duties of the Trustee or any Paying or Conversion Agent in respect of any such covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 
  

 65 

 ARTICLE XI 
 CONVERSION OF SECURITIES 
 SECTION 11.1 Conversion Privilege and Conversion
Rate. 
 (1) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Article, at the option of the Holder thereof, any portion of the
principal amount of any Note that is an integral multiple of $1,000 may be converted based on the Conversion Rate, determined as hereinafter provided, in effect at the time of conversion, into the right to receive a combination of cash and fully
paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Such conversion right shall commence on the initial issuance date of the Notes and expire at the close of business on July 15, 2006, subject, in the case of conversion of any Global Note, to any
Applicable Procedures. In case a Holder exercises his right to require the Company to repurchase the Note, such conversion right in respect of the Note, or portion thereof so called, shall expire at the close of business on the Repurchase Date,
unless the Company defaults in making the payment due upon repurchase (in such case subject as aforesaid to any Applicable Procedures with respect to any Global Note). 
 (2) The rate at which shares of Common Stock shall be delivered upon conversion (herein called the “Conversion Rate”) shall be initially 71.9466 shares of Common Stock for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of
Notes. The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted in certain instances as provided in this Article XI. 
 (3) Upon conversion, the Holder will
receive an aggregate amount (the “Conversion Value”) equal to the product of x, y and z, rounded to the nearest whole cent, where 
 (i) x is equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being converted divided by 1,000; 
 (ii) y is equal to the then
applicable Conversion Rate on the last day of the Determination Period; and, 
 (iii) z is equal to the arithmetic average, rounded to the
nearest whole cent, (the “Ten Day Weighted Average Price”) of the Daily Volume Weighted Average Price (adjusted, if appropriate, to take into account the occurrence during the Determination Period of any stock dividends, stock splits,
stock combinations or other similar events) of the Common Stock for the ten consecutive Trading Days beginning on the second Trading Day immediately following the Conversion Date (including any date that a Conversion Date is deemed to have occurred
under Section 1.12) (such Ten consecutive Trading Days, the “Determination Period”). 
 The Conversion Value shall be paid as follows: 

(a) the Company shall pay an amount in cash (the “Principal Return”) equal to the lesser of (I) the Conversion Value and (II) the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes being converted; and, 
  

 66 

 (b) if the Conversion Value exceeds the Principal Return (such excess, the “Net Share
Amount”), the Company shall (A) deliver the number of shares of Common Stock determined as set forth in the following paragraph (the “Net Shares”) and (B) pay Additional Cash determined as set forth in the following paragraph.

 The number of Net Shares to be delivered will be the integer part of the number obtained by dividing the Net Share Amount by the Ten Day Weighted Average
Price. “Additional Cash” will be a U.S. dollar amount, rounded to the nearest whole cent, equal to the difference between (I) the Net Share Amount and (II) the number of Net Shares to be delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence
multiplied by the Ten Day Weighted Average Price. Holders of Notes will not receive fractional shares upon conversion of Notes. In lieu of fractional shares, Holders will receive the Additional Cash described in the second preceding sentence.

 SECTION 11.2 Exercise of Conversion Privilege. 
 In order to exercise the conversion privilege, the Holder of any Note to be converted shall deliver such Note, duly endorsed in blank, at any office or
agency of the Company maintained for that purpose pursuant to Section 10.2, accompanied by a duly signed and completed notice of conversion substantially in the form set forth in Section 2.4 stating that the Holder elects to convert such Note or, if
less than the entire principal amount thereof is to be converted, the portion thereof to be converted. The conversion date will be the date on which the Note and the duly signed and completed notice of conversion are so delivered (the
“Conversion Date”). Each Note surrendered for conversion (in whole or in part) during the Record Date Period shall (except in the case of any Note or portion thereof which is repurchasable on a Repurchase Date, occurring within such Record
Date Period (including any Notes or portions thereof submitted for repurchase on a Repurchase Date that is a Regular Record Date or an Interest Payment Date, as the case may be)) be accompanied by payment in New York Clearing House funds or other
funds acceptable to the Company of an amount equal to the interest payable on the Interest Payment Date on the principal amount of such Note (or part thereof, as the case may be) being surrendered for conversion. The interest so payable on the
Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note (or portion thereof, if applicable) which is repurchasable on a Repurchase Date, occurring, during the Record Date Period (including any Notes or portions thereof submitted for repurchase on a
Repurchase Date that is a Regular Record Date or Interest Payment Date, as the case may be), which Note (or portion thereof, if applicable) is surrendered for conversion during the Record Date Period (or on the last Business Day prior to the Regular
Record Date or Interest Payment Date in the case of any Note (or portion thereof, as the case may be) submitted for repurchase on a Repurchase Date on such Regular Record Date or Interest Payment Date, as the case may be) shall be paid to the Holder
of such Note as of such Regular Record Date in an amount equal to the interest that would have been payable on such Note if such Note had been converted as of the close of business on the Interest Payment Date. The interest so payable on the
Interest Payment Date in respect of any Note (or portion thereof, as the case may be) which is not eligible for repurchase on a Repurchase Date, occurring during the Record Date Period, which Note (or portion thereof, as the case may be) is
surrendered for conversion during the Record Date Period, shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as of such Regular Record Date in an amount equal to the interest that would have been payable on such 
  

 67 

 Note if such Note had been converted as of the close of business on the Interest Payment Date. Interest payable in
respect of any Note surrendered for conversion on or after an Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder of such Note as of the next preceding Regular Record Date, notwithstanding the exercise of the right of conversion. Except as provided in
this paragraph and subject to the last paragraph of Section 3.7, no cash payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any interest accrued from the Interest Payment Date next preceding the Conversion Date, in respect of any
Note (or part thereof, as the case may be) surrendered for conversion, or on account of any dividends on the Common Stock issued upon conversion. The Company’s delivery to the Holder of the Principal Return, the Net Shares (if any) and the
Additional Cash (if any) into which a Note is convertible will be deemed to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of the Note. 
 Notes shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the day of surrender of such Notes for conversion in accordance with the foregoing provisions, and at such time the rights of
the Holders of such Notes as Holders shall cease, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the Net Shares, if any, issuable upon conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Net Shares at such time. As
soon as practicable, the Company shall deliver to the Holder, through the Conversion Agent, (x) cash in an amount equal to the Principal Return, (y) a certificate (or credit the book-entry transfer of such shares of Common Stock) for the number of
Net Shares, if any, issuable upon the conversion and (z) any Additional Cash payable to the Holder. 
 In the case of any Note which is
converted in part only, upon such conversion the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the unconverted portion of the principal amount of such Note. A Note may be converted in part, but only if the principal amount of such Note to be converted is any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 and the principal amount of such
note to remain Outstanding after such conversion is equal to U.S. $1,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 SECTION 11.3 Fractions of Shares. 
 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 Principal Return and number of Net Shares, if any, which shall be delivered 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 which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any Note or Notes (or specified portions thereof), the Company shall
pay Additional Cash. 
 SECTION 11.4 Adjustment of Conversion Rate. 
 The Conversion Rate shall be subject to adjustments from time to time as follows: 
 (1) In case the Company shall pay or make a dividend or other distribution on shares of any class of capital stock payable in shares of Common Stock, the
Conversion Rate in 
  

 68 

 effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to
receive such dividend or other distribution shall be increased by dividing such Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such
determination and the denominator shall be the sum of such number of shares and the total number of shares constituting such dividend or other distribution, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day
following the date fixed for such determination. If, after any such date fixed for determination, any dividend or distribution is not in fact paid, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors
determines not to pay such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would have been in effect if such determination date had not been fixed. For the purposes of this paragraph (1), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time
outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not pay any dividend or make any
distribution on shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the Company. 
 (2) In case the Company shall issue rights, options or
warrants to all holders of its Common Stock entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock at a price per share less than the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) of the
Common Stock on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such rights, options or warrants (other than any rights, options or warrants that by their terms will also be issued to any Holder upon conversion of a Note
into shares of Common Stock without any action required by the Company or any other Person), the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such determination shall be increased by dividing such
Conversion Rate by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate of the
offering price of the total number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase would purchase at such current market price and the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at the close of business
on the date fixed for such determination plus the number of shares of Common Stock so offered for subscription or purchase, such increase to become effective immediately after the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for such
determination. If, after any such date fixed for determination, any such rights, options or warrants are not in fact issued, or are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of
the date such rights, options or warrants expire, or the date the Board of Directors determines not to issue such rights, options or warrants, to the Conversion Rate that would have been in effect if the unexercised rights, options or warrants had
never been granted or such determination date had not been fixed, as the case may be. For the purposes of this paragraph (2), the number of shares of Common Stock at any time outstanding shall not include shares held in the treasury of the Company
but shall include shares issuable in respect of scrip certificates issued in lieu of fractions of shares of Common Stock. The Company will not issue any rights, options or warrants in respect of shares of Common Stock held in the treasury of the
Company. 
  

 69 

 (3) In case outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be subdivided into a greater number of shares of
Common Stock, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day 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, the Conversion Rate in effect at the opening of business on the day following the day upon which such subdivision or 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 day following the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective. 
 (4) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock evidences of its indebtedness, capital stock, cash
or other assets (including securities, but excluding (i) any rights, options or warrants referred to in paragraph (2) of this Section, (ii) any dividend or distribution paid exclusively in cash, (iii) any dividend or distribution referred to in
paragraph (1) of this Section and (iv) distributions upon mergers or consolidations to which Section 11.11 applies), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect
immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the current market price per share (determined as provided in
paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board of directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution
filed with the Trustee) of the portion of the assets, shares or evidences of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one share of Common Stock and the denominator shall be such current market price per share of the Common Stock, such adjustment to
become effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution. If after any such date fixed for determination, any such distribution is
not in fact made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately readjusted, effective as of the date the Board of Directors determines not to make such distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would have been in effect if such determination date had not
been fixed. 
 (5) In case the Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all holders of its Common Stock cash (excluding any
cash that is distributed as part of a distribution referred to in paragraph (4) of this Section or cash distributed upon a merger or consolidation to which Section 11.11 applies) in an aggregate amount that, combined together with (I) the aggregate
amount of any other cash distributions to all holders of its Common Stock made exclusively in cash within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (5) has been
made and (II) the aggregate of any cash plus the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) of consideration payable in respect of any tender offer by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries for all or any portion of the Common Stock concluded within the 12 months preceding the date of payment of such distribution and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to paragraph (6) of this Section 11.4 has
been made (the “combined cash and tender amount”) exceeds 10% of the product of the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) of 
  

 70 

 the Common Stock on the date for the determination of holders of shares of Common Stock entitled to receive such
distribution times the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (the “aggregate current market price”), then, and in each such case, immediately after the close of business on such date for determination, the Conversion
Rate shall be adjusted so that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the date fixed for determination of the stockholders entitled to receive such
distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section) of the Common Stock on the date fixed for such determination less an amount equal to
the quotient of (x) the excess of such combined cash and tender amount over such aggregate current market price divided by (y) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date for determination and (ii) the denominator of which shall be
equal to the current market price per share (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) of the Common Stock on such date fixed for determination. 
 (6) In case a tender offer made by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock shall expire and such tender offer (as amended upon the expiration thereof) shall require the payment to
stockholders (based on the acceptance (up to any maximum specified in the terms of the tender offer) of Purchased Shares (as defined below)) of an aggregate consideration having a fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose
determination shall be conclusive and described in a Board Resolution) that combined together with (I) the aggregate of the cash plus the fair market value (as determined by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and
described in a Board Resolution), as of the expiration of such tender offer, of consideration payable in respect of any other tender offer by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock expiring within the 12 months
preceding the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to this paragraph (6) has been made and (II) the aggregate amount of any cash distributions to all holders of the Common Stock within 12 months preceding
the expiration of such tender offer and in respect of which no adjustment pursuant to paragraph (5) of this Section has been made (the “combined tender and cash amount”) exceeds 10% of the product of the current market price per share of
the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) as of the last time (the “Expiration Time”) tenders could have been made pursuant to such tender offer (as it may be amended) times the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time, then, and in each such case immediately prior to the opening of business on the day after the date of the Expiration Time, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted so
that the same shall equal the rate determined by dividing the Conversion Rate immediately prior to close of business on the date of the Expiration Time by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be equal to (A) the product of (I) the current
market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section 11.4) on the date of the Expiration Time multiplied by (II) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) on the
Expiration Time less (B) the combined tender and cash amount, and (ii) the denominator of which shall be equal to the product of (A) the current market price per share of the Common Stock (determined as provided in paragraph (8) of this Section
11.4) as of the Expiration Time multiplied by (B) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (including any tendered shares) as of the Expiration Time 
  

 71 

 less the number of all shares validly tendered 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”). 
 (7) The reclassification of Common Stock into securities
other than Common Stock (other than any reclassification upon a consolidation or merger to which Section 11.11 applies) shall be deemed to involve (a) a distribution of such securities other than Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock (and the
effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be “the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such distribution” and “the date fixed for such determination” within the meaning of
paragraph (4) of this Section), and (b) a subdivision or combination, as the case may be, of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such reclassification into the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately thereafter (and the effective date of such reclassification shall be deemed to be “the day upon which such subdivision becomes effective” or “the day upon which such combination becomes effective”, as the case may be,
and “the day upon which such subdivision or combination becomes effective” within the meaning of paragraph (3) of this Section 11.4). 
 (8) For the purpose of any computation under paragraphs (2), (4), (5) or (6) of this Section 11.4, the current market price per share of Common Stock on any date shall be calculated by the Company and be the average of the daily Closing
Prices Per Share for the five consecutive Trading Days selected by the Company commencing not more than 10 Trading Days before, and ending not later than the earlier of the day in question and the day before the “ex” date with respect to
the issuance or distribution requiring such computation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “‘ex’ date”, when used with respect to any issuance or distribution, means the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular
way in the applicable securities market or on the applicable securities exchange without the right to receive such issuance or distribution. 
 (9) No adjustment in the Conversion Rate shall be required unless such adjustment (plus any adjustments not previously made by reason of the paragraph (9)) would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent in such rate;
provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this paragraph (9) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under this Article shall be made to the nearest
cent or to the nearest one-hundredth of a share, as the case may be. 
 (10) The Company may make such increases in the Conversion Rate, for
the remaining term of the Notes or any shorter term, in addition to those required by paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of this Section 11.4, as it considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of
shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock. or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes. The Company shall have the power to resolve
any ambiguity or correct any error in this paragraph (10) and its actions in so doing shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive. 
  

 72 

 (11) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, no adjustment of the Conversion Rate shall
be required to be made (a) upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan for the reinvestment of dividends or (b) because of a tender or exchange offer of the character described in Rule 13e-4(h)(5) under the
Exchange Act or any successor rule thereto. 
 (12) 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 such 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; provided, however, that no such increase shall be taken into account for purposes of determining whether the Closing Price Per Share of the Common Stock equals or exceeds 105% of the
Conversion Price in connection with an event which would otherwise be a Change of Control pursuant to Section 13.4. Whenever the Conversion Rate is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Company shall give notice of the increase to the
Holders in the manner provided in Section 1.6 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.

 SECTION 11.5 Notice of Adjustments of Conversion Rate. 
 Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as herein provided: 
 (1) the Company shall compute the adjusted
Conversion Rate in accordance with Section 11.4 and shall prepare a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate and showing in reasonable detail the facts upon which such adjustment is
based, and such certificate shall promptly be filed with the Trustee and with each Conversion Agent; and 
 (2) upon each such adjustment, a
notice stating that the Conversion Rate has been adjusted and setting forth the adjusted Conversion Rate shall be required, and as soon as practicable after it is required, such notice shall be provided by the Company to all Holders in accordance
with Section 1.6. 
 Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion Agent shall be under any duty or responsibility with respect to any such certificate or the
information and calculations contained therein, except to exhibit the same to any Holder of Notes desiring inspection thereof at its office during normal business hours. 
 SECTION 11.6 Notice of Certain Corporate Action. 
 In case: 
 (1) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution) on its Common Stock payable (i) otherwise than exclusively in cash or (ii)
exclusively in cash in an amount that would require any adjustment pursuant to Section 12.4; or 
  

 73 

 (2) the Company shall authorize the granting to all or substantially all of the holders of its Common
Stock of rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any other rights; or 
 (3)
of any reclassification of the Common Stock, or of any consolidation, merger or share exchange to which the Company is a party and for which approval of any stockholders of the Company is required, or of the conveyance, sale, transfer or lease of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or 
 (4) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of
the Company; 
 then the Company shall cause to be filed at each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Notes pursuant to Section 10.2,
and shall cause to be provided to all Holders in accordance with Section 1.6, at least 20 days (or 10 days in any case specified in clause (1) or (2) above) prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, rights, options or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
distribution, rights, options or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale, lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective, and the
date as of which it is expected that holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance,
transfer, sale, lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Neither the failure to give such notice or the notice referred to in the following paragraph nor any defect therein shall affect the legality or validity of the proceedings described in
clauses (1) through (4) of this Section 11.6. If at the time the Trustee shall not be the conversion agent, a copy of such notice shall also forthwith be filed by the Company with the Trustee. 
 The Company shall cause to be filed at the Corporate Trust Office and each office or agency maintained for the purpose of conversion of Notes pursuant to
Section 10.2, and shall cause to be provided to all Holders in accordance with Section 1.6, notice of any tender offer by the Company or any Subsidiary for all or any portion of the Common Stock at or about the time that such notice of tender offer
is provided to the public generally. 
 SECTION 11.7 Company to Reserve Common Stock. 
 The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, for the purpose
of effecting the conversion of Notes, the full number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon the conversion of all Outstanding Notes. 
  

 74 

 SECTION 11.8 Taxes on Conversions. 
 Except as provided in the next sentence, the Company will pay any and all taxes (other than taxes on income) and duties that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of Principal Return, Net Shares, if any,
and Additional Cash, if any, on conversion of Notes pursuant hereto. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of Principal Return, Net
Shares, if any, and Additional Cash, if any, in a name other than that of the Holder of the Note or Notes to be converted, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issue has paid to the Company the
amount of any such tax or duty, or has established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax or duty has been paid. 
 SECTION 11.9 Covenant as to
Common Stock. 
 The Company agrees that all shares of Common Stock which may be delivered upon conversion of Notes, upon such delivery,
will have been duly authorized and validly issued and will be fully paid and nonassessable and, except as provided in Section 11.8, the Company will pay all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof. 
 SECTION 11.10 Cancellation of Converted Notes. 
 All
Notes delivered for conversion shall be delivered to the Trustee or its agent to be cancelled by or at the direction of the Trustee, which shall dispose of the same as provided in Section 3.9. 
 SECTION 11.11 Provision in Case of Consolidation, Merger or Sale of Assets. 
 In case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other Person, any merger of another Person with or into the Company (other than a merger which does not result in any reclassification,
conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company) or in case of any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the Person formed by such consolidation or resulting from such
merger or which acquires such assets, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture providing that the Holder of each Note then Outstanding shall have the right thereafter, during the period such Note shall be
convertible as specified in Section 11.1, to convert such Note only into the value of the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property (the “Reference Property”) receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale,
transfer or lease by a holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to a fraction whose denominator is one thousand (1,000) and whose numerator is the product of the principal amount of such Note and the Conversion Rate in effect immediately
prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease; provided, however, that after the effective time of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease, the Principal Return (calculated as set forth below for
purposes of this Section 11.11) payable hereunder upon conversion of a Note shall continue to be payable in cash. For purposes of this Section 11.11, the Principal Return and any Net Share Amount shall be calculated based on a Conversion Value which
has been calculated by substituting the fair value of the Reference Property payable with respect to 
  

 75 

 one share of Common Stock in connection with such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease as of the
date of such event (adjusted, if appropriate, to take into account the occurrence during the period between the date of such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease and the applicable Conversion Date of any stock dividends, stock
splits, stock combinations or other similar events, the “Reference Property Value”) for the Ten Day Weighted Average Price and otherwise in accordance with Section 11.1. The Company’s obligation to deliver the Net Shares, if any, in
respect of the Net Share Amount in connection with such conversion, shall be satisfied by payment in the form of the Reference Property and based on the Reference Property Value. 
 The right of the Holder of a Note to receive the foregoing consideration upon conversion of a Note following such consolidation, merger, conveyance,
sale, transfer or lease, assumes such holder of Common Stock of the Company (i) is not (A) a Person with which the Company consolidated or merged with or into or which merged into or with the Company or to which such conveyance, sale, transfer or
lease was made, as the case may be (a “Constituent Person”), or (B) an Affiliate of a Constituent Person, and (ii) failed to exercise his rights of election, if any, as to the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property
receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease (provided that if the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer, or lease is not the
same for each share of Common Stock of the Company held immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease by others than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof and in respect of which such rights of election
shall not have been exercised (“Non-electing Share”), then for the purpose of this Section 11.11 the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such consolidation, merger, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease by
the holders of each Non-electing Share shall be deemed to be the kind and amount so receivable per share by a plurality of the Non-electing Shares). 
 Such supplemental indenture shall provide for adjustments which, for events subsequent to the effective date of such supplemental indenture, shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
provided for in this Article. The above provisions of this Section 11.11 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers, conveyances, sales, transfers or leases. Notice of the execution of such a supplemental indenture shall be given by
the Company to the Holder of each Note as provided in Section 1.6 promptly upon such execution. 
 Neither the Trustee nor any Conversion
Agent shall be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any such supplemental indenture relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or other securities or property or cash receivable by
Holders of Notes upon the conversion of their Notes after any such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, sale or lease or to any such adjustment, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be
protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel with respect thereto, which the Company shall cause to be furnished to the Trustee upon request. 
  

 76 

 SECTION 11.12 Responsibility of Trustee for Conversion Provisions. 
 The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, and any Conversion Agent shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Holder of
Notes to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment of the Conversion Rate, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made, or with respect to the method employed, or herein or in any supplemental
indenture provided to be employed, in making the same, or whether a supplemental indenture need be entered into. Neither the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, nor any Conversion Agent shall be accountable with respect to the
validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any Common Stock, or of any other securities or property or cash, which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the conversion of any Note; and it or they do not make any representation with respect
thereto. Neither the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, nor any Conversion Agent shall be responsible for any failure of the Company to make or calculate any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or
share certificates or other securities or property or cash upon the surrender of any Note for the purpose of conversion; and the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, and any Conversion Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of
the Company to comply with any of the covenants of the Company contained in this Article. 
 ARTICLE XII 
 SUBORDINATION OF SECURITIES 
 SECTION 12.1 Notes
Subordinate to Senior Indebtedness. 
 The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Note, by its acceptance thereof, likewise
covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Article (subject to the provisions of Article IV), the indebtedness represented by the Notes and the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or
interest on, each and all of the Notes (including the Repurchase Price with respect to Notes submitted for repurchase in accordance with Article XIII), are hereby expressly made subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in
full of all Senior Indebtedness. 
 SECTION 12.2 No Payment in Certain Circumstances, Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc. 
 No payment shall be made with respect to the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes or any shares of Common Stock issued on conversion
(including, but not limited to, the Repurchase Price with respect to Notes submitted for repurchase in accordance with Article XIII), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by Section 12.9, if: 
 (i) a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest (including a default under any repurchase obligation) or other amounts with
respect to any Senior Indebtedness occurs and is continuing (or, in the case of Senior Indebtedness for which there is a period of grace, in the event of such a default that continues beyond the period of grace, if any, specified in the instrument
or lease evidencing such Senior Indebtedness) unless and until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist; or 
  

 77 

 (ii) a default, other than a payment default, on any Designated Senior Indebtedness occurs and is
continuing that then permits holders of such Designated Senior Indebtedness to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of the default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from a Representative of Designated Senior Indebtedness
or the Company. 
 If the Trustee receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant to clause (ii) above, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice
shall be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until (A) at least 365 days shall have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice, and (B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any,
and interest on the Notes that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent
Payment Blockage Notice. 
 The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Notes upon the earlier of:

 (1) the date upon which the default is cured or waived or ceases to exist, or 
 (2) in the case of a default referred to in clause (ii) above, 179 days pass after notice is received if the maturity of such Designated Senior
Indebtedness has not been accelerated, unless this Article XII otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at the time of such payment or distribution. 
 In the event of (a) any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding in connection therewith, relative to the Company or to its
creditors, as such, or to its assets, or (b) any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (c) any assignment for the benefit of creditors
or any other marshaling of assets and liabilities of the Company, then and in any such event the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of all Senior
Indebtedness in cash before the Holders of the Notes are entitled to receive any payment on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Notes or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Notes, and to that end the
holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment thereof, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the
Notes in any such case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up or event. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Section, the Trustee or the Holder of any Note shall have received any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, before all 
  

 78 

 Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment or distribution,
have been made known to the Trustee or, as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment or distribution shall be paid over or delivered forthwith to the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee,
agent or other Person making payment or distribution of assets of the Company for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full, after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness. 
 For purposes of this Article only, the words “cash,
securities or other property” shall not be deemed to include shares of capital stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment,
which shares of stock or securities are subordinated in right of payment to all then outstanding Senior Indebtedness to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Notes are so subordinated as provided in this Article. 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
upon the terms and conditions set forth in Article VII shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding up, liquidation, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors or marshaling of assets and liabilities of the Company for the purposes of
this Section if the Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Company is merged or which acquires by conveyance or transfer such properties and assets substantially as an entirety, as the case may be, shall, as a part of such
consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions set forth in Article VII. 
 In the event that, notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall make any payment to the Trustee or the Holder of any Note prohibited by the foregoing provisions of this Section, and if such fact shall, at or prior to the time of such payment, have been made known to the Trustee or,
as the case may be, such Holder, then and in such event such payment shall be paid over and delivered forthwith to the Company, in the case of the Trustee, or the Trustee, in the case of such Holder. 
 SECTION 12.3 Prior Payment to Senior Indebtedness Upon Acceleration of Notes. 
 In the event of the acceleration of the Notes because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Trustee or any holder of Notes in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest
on the Notes (including, but not limited to, the Repurchase Price with respect to the Notes submitted for repurchase in accordance with Article XIII), except payments and distributions made by the Trustee as permitted by Section 12.9, until all
Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. 
  

 79 

 SECTION 12.4 Payment Permitted If No Default. 
 Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time except during the
pendency of any case, proceeding, dissolution, liquidation or other winding up, assignment for the benefit of creditors or other marshaling of assets and liabilities of the Company referred to in Section 12.2, or during the circumstances referred to
in the first paragraph of Section 12.2, or under the conditions described in Section 12.3, from making payments at any time of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Notes, or (b) the application by the Trustee of any money deposited
with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Notes or the retention of such payment by the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge that
such payment would have been prohibited by the provisions of this Article. 
 SECTION 12.5 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 extent of the payments or
distributions made to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the provisions of this Article to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments and distributions of cash, property and securities applicable to
the Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full. For purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of any cash, property or
securities to which the Holders of the Notes or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, and no payments over pursuant to the provisions of this Article 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. 
 SECTION 12.6 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. 
 The provisions of this Article 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 Senior Indebtedness on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article or
elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall (i) impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders of the Notes, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay to the Holders of the Notes the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms; or (ii) affect the relative rights against the
Company of the Holders of the Notes and creditors of the Company other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness; or (iii) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Note from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default
under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or such Holder. 
  

 80 

 SECTION 12.7 Trustee to Effectuate Subordination. 
 Each Holder of a Note by its acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to
effectuate the subordination provided in this Article and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 
 SECTION 12.8 No
Waiver of Subordination Provisions. 
 No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as
herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder of any Senior Indebtedness, or by any non-compliance by
the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. 
 Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Holders of the
Notes, without incurring responsibility to the Holders of the Notes and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article or the obligations hereunder of the Holders of the Notes to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, do any
one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing
the same or any agreement under which Senior Indebtedness is outstanding; (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Indebtedness; (iii) release any Person liable in any manner
for the collection of Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person. 
 SECTION 12.9
Notice to Trustee. 
 The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to the Company which would prohibit
the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 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 written notice thereof from the Company or a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness (including,
without limitation, a holder of Designated Senior Indebtedness) and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, 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 12.9 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 of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Note), 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 within one Business Day prior to such date. 
  

 81 

 Notwithstanding anything in this Article XII to the contrary, nothing shall prevent any payment by the
Trustee to the Holders of monies deposited with it pursuant to Section 4.1, and any such payment shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 12.2 or 12.3. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness
(including, without limitation, a holder of Designated Senior Indebtedness) to establish that such notice has been given by a Representative or a holder of Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, a holder of Designated Senior
Indebtedness). 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, 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, 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 12.10 Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent. 
 Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, 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. 
 SECTION 12.11 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 or otherwise. 
  

 82 

 SECTION 12.12 Reliance by Holders of Senior Indebtedness on Subordination Provisions. 
 Each Holder by accepting a Note acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing subordination provisions are, and are intended to be, an inducement and a
consideration to each holder of any Senior Indebtedness, whether such Senior Indebtedness was created or acquired before or after the issuance of the Notes, to acquire and continue to hold, or to continue to hold, such Senior Indebtedness and such
holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be deemed conclusively to have relied on such subordination provisions in acquiring and continuing to hold, or in continuing to hold, such Senior Indebtedness, and no amendment or modification of the provisions
contained herein shall diminish the rights of such holders of Senior Indebtedness unless such holders shall have agreed in writing thereto. 
 SECTION 12.13
Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights. 
 The Trustee in its individual capacity
shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness which may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the
Trustee of any of its rights as such holder. 
 Nothing in this Article shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or
pursuant to Section 6.7. 
 SECTION 12.14 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 shall in such case (unless the context 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 12.13 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of the Company if it or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent. 
 SECTION 12.15 Certain Conversions and Repurchases Deemed Payment. 
 For the purposes of this Article only, (i) the issuance and delivery of junior notes upon conversion of Notes in accordance with Article XI or upon the repurchase of Notes in accordance with Article XIII shall not be
deemed to constitute a payment or distribution on account of the principal of or premium or interest on Notes or on account of the purchase or other acquisition of Notes, and (ii) the payment, issuance or delivery of cash (except in satisfaction of
fractional shares pursuant to Section 11.3), property or securities (other than junior securities) upon conversion of a Note shall be deemed to constitute payment on account of the principal of such Note. For the purposes of this Section, the term
“junior securities” means (a) shares of any stock of any class of the Company and securities into which the Notes are convertible pursuant to Article XI and (b) securities of the Company which are subordinated in right of payment to all
Senior Indebtedness which may be outstanding at the time of issuance or 
  

 83 

 delivery of such securities to substantially the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Notes are so
subordinated as provided in this Article. Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall impair, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Indebtedness and the Holders
of the Notes, the right, which is absolute and unconditional, of the Holder of any Note to convert such Note in accordance with Article XI (subject to the limitations under this Article XII of the ability of the Company to pay the Principal
Return) or to exchange such Note for Common Stock in accordance with Article XIII if the Company elects to satisfy the obligations under Article XIII by the delivery of Common Stock. 
 ARTICLE XIII 
 REPURCHASE OF NOTES AT THE OPTION OF THE 
 HOLDER UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL 
 SECTION 13.1 Right
to Require Repurchase. 
 In the event that a Change in Control (as hereinafter defined) shall occur, then each Holder shall have the
right, at the Holder’s option, but subject to the provisions of Section 13.2, to require the Company to repurchase, and upon the exercise of such right the Company shall repurchase, all of such Holder’s Notes, or any portion of the
principal amount thereof that is equal to U.S. $1,000 or any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof (provided that no single Note may be repurchased in part unless the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be Outstanding after
such repurchase is equal to U.S. $1,000 or integral multiples of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof), on the date (the “Repurchase Date”) that is 45 days after the date of the Company Notice (as defined in Section 13.3) at a purchase price
equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus interest accrued to the Repurchase Date (the “Repurchase Price”); provided, however, that installments of interest on Notes whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to
the Repurchase Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more Predecessor Notes, registered as such on the relevant Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of Section 3.7. Such right to require the repurchase of
the Notes shall not continue after a discharge of the Company from its obligations with respect to the Notes in accordance with Article IV, unless a Change in Control shall have occurred prior to such discharge. At the option of the Company, the
Repurchase Price may be paid in cash or, subject to the fulfillment by the Company of the conditions set forth Section 13.2, by delivery of shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the Repurchase Price. Whenever in this Indenture
(including Sections 2.2, 3.1, 5.1(1) and 5.8) there is a reference, in any context, to the principal of any Note as of any time, such reference shall be deemed to include reference to the Repurchase Price payable in respect of such Note to the
extent that such Repurchase Price is, was or would be so payable at such time, and express mention of the Repurchase Price in any provision of this Indenture shall not be construed as excluding the Repurchase Price in those provisions of this
Indenture when such express mention is not made; provided, however, that for the purposes of Article XII such reference shall be deemed to include reference to the Repurchase Price only to the extent the Repurchase Price is payable in cash.

  

 84 

 SECTION 13.2 Conditions to the Company’s Election to Pay the Repurchase Price in Common Stock. 
 The Company may elect to pay the Repurchase Price by delivery of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 13.1 if and only if the following conditions
shall have been satisfied: 
 (1) The shares of Common Stock deliverable in payment of the Repurchase Price shall have a fair market value as
of the Repurchase Date of not less than the Repurchase Price. For purposes of Section 13.1 and this Section 13.2, the fair market value of shares of Common Stock shall be determined by the Company and shall be equal to 95% of the average of the
Closing Prices Per Share of the Common Stock for the five consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding and including the third Trading Day prior to the Repurchase Date; 
 (2) The Repurchase Price shall be paid only in cash in the event any shares of Common Stock to be issued upon repurchase of Notes hereunder (i) require registration under any federal securities law before such shares
may be freely transferrable without being subject to any transfer restrictions under the Securities Act upon repurchase and if such registration is not completed or does not become effective prior to the Repurchase Date, and/or (ii) require
registration with or approval of any governmental authority under any state law or any other federal law before such shares may be validly issued or delivered upon repurchase and if such registration is not completed or does not become effective or
such approval is not obtained prior to the Repurchase Date; 
 (3) Payment of the Repurchase Price may not be made in Common Stock unless
such stock is, or shall have been, approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange or listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market, in each case, prior to the Repurchase Date; and 
 (4) All shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon repurchase of Notes will be issued out of the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock
and, will upon issue, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable and free of any preemptive or similar rights. 
 If all of
the conditions set forth in this Section 13.2 are not satisfied in accordance with the terms thereof, the Repurchase Price shall be paid by the Company only in cash. 
 SECTION 13.3 Notices; Method of Exercising Repurchase Right, Etc. 
 (1) On or before the 30th day
after the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Company or, at the request and expense of the Company on or before the 30th day after such occurrence, the Trustee, shall give to all Holders of Notes, in the manner provided in Section 1.6, notice
(the “Company Notice”) of the occurrence of the Change of Control and of the repurchase right set forth herein arising as a result thereof. The Company shall also deliver (i) a copy of such notice of a repurchase right to the Trustee and
(ii) make a public announcement thereof by release made to Reuters Economic Services and Bloomberg Business News. 
  

 85 

 Each notice of a repurchase right shall state: 
 (i) the Repurchase Date, 
 (ii) the date by
which the repurchase right must be exercised, 
 (iii) the Repurchase Price, and whether the Repurchase Price shall be paid by the Company in
cash or by delivery of shares of Common Stock, 
 (iv) a description of the procedure which a Holder must follow to exercise a repurchase
right, and the place or places where such Notes, are to be surrendered for payment of the Repurchase Price and accrued interest, if any, 
 (v) that on the Repurchase Date the Repurchase Price, and accrued interest, if any, will become due and payable upon each such Note designated by the Holder to be repurchased, and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue on and after
said date, 
 (vi) the Conversion Rate then in effect, the date on which the right to convert the principal amount of the Notes to be
repurchased will terminate and the place or places where such Notes may be surrendered for conversion, and 
 (vii) the place or places that
the Note certificate with the Election of Holder to Require Repurchase as specified in Section 2.2 shall be delivered. 
 No failure of the
Company to give the foregoing notices or defect therein shall limit any Holder’s right to exercise a repurchase right or affect the validity of the proceedings for the repurchase of Notes. 
 If any of the foregoing provisions or other provisions of this Article XIII are inconsistent with applicable law, such law shall govern. 
 (2) To exercise a repurchase right, a Holder shall deliver to the Trustee on or before the 30th day after the date of the Company Notice (i) written
notice of the Holder’s exercise of such right, which notice shall set forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased (and, if any Note is to repurchased in part, the serial number thereof, the portion of the
principal amount thereof to be repurchased and the name of the Person in which the portion thereof to remain Outstanding after such repurchase is to be registered) and a statement that an election to exercise the repurchase right is being made
thereby, and, in the event that the Repurchase Price shall be paid in shares of Common Stock, the name or names (with addresses) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issued, and (ii) the Notes with respect to
which the repurchase right is being exercised. Such written notice shall be irrevocable, except that the right of the Holder to convert the Notes with respect to which the repurchase right is being exercised shall continue until the close of
business on the Repurchase Date. 
  

 86 

 (3) In the event a repurchase right shall be exercised in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company
shall pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee the Repurchase Price in cash or shares of Common Stock, as provided above, for payment to the Holder on the Repurchase Date or, if shares of Common Stock are to be paid, as promptly after the Repurchase
Date as practicable, together with accrued and unpaid interest to the Repurchase Date payable with respect to the Notes as to which the repurchase right has been exercised; provided, however, that installments of interest that mature on or prior to
the Repurchase Date shall be payable in cash 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. 
 (4) If any Note (or portion thereof) surrendered for repurchase shall not be so paid on the Repurchase Date, the principal amount of such Note (or
portion thereof, as the case may be) shall, until paid, bear interest to the extent permitted by applicable law from the Repurchase Date at the rate of 7.00% per annum, and each Note shall remain convertible into the Principal Return, Net Shares, if
any, and Additional Cash, if any, until the principal of such Note (or portion thereof, as the case may be) shall have been paid or duly provided for. 
 (5) Any Note which is to be repurchased only in part shall be surrendered to the Trustee (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, 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 his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder of such Note without
service charge, a new Note or Notes, containing identical terms and conditions, each in an authorized denomination in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unrepurchased portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered.

 (6) Any issuance of shares of Common Stock in respect of the Repurchase Price shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to
the close of business on the Repurchase Date and the Person or Persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such repurchase shall be deemed to have become on the Repurchase Date the
holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby; provided, however, that any surrender for repurchase on a date when the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed shall constitute the Person or Persons in whose name or names
the certificate or certificates for such shares are to be issued as the record holder or holders thereof for all purposes at the opening of business on the next succeeding day on which such stock transfer books are open. No payment or adjustment
shall be made for dividends or distributions on any Common Stock issued upon repurchase of any Note declared prior to the Repurchase Date. 
 (7) No fractions of shares shall be issued upon repurchase of Notes. If more than one Note shall be repurchased from the same Holder and the Repurchase Price shall be payable in shares of Common Stock, the number of full shares which shall
be issuable upon such repurchase shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes so repurchased. Instead of any fractional share of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable on the repurchase of any Note or Notes,
the Company will deliver to the applicable 
  

 87 

 Holder its check for the current market value of such fractional share. The current market value of a fraction of a share
is determined by multiplying the current market price of a full share by the fraction, and rounding the result to the nearest cent. For purposes of this Section, the current market price of a share of Common Stock is the Closing Price Per Share of
the Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Repurchase Date. 
 (8) Any issuance and delivery of certificates for shares of
Common Stock on repurchase of Notes shall be made without charge to the Holder of Notes being repurchased for such certificates or for any tax or duty in respect of the issuance or delivery of such certificates or the notes represented thereby;
provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or duty which may be payable in respect of (i) income of the Holder or (ii) any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of certificates for shares of Common Stock in a
name other than that of the Holder of the Notes being repurchased, and no such issuance or delivery shall be made unless and until the Person requesting such issuance or delivery has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or duty or has
established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax or duty has been paid. 
 (9) All Notes delivered for repurchase shall be
delivered to the Trustee to be cancelled at the direction of the Trustee, which shall dispose of the same as provided in Section 3.9. 
 SECTION 13.4
Certain Definitions.

Company entitling such person to exercise 50% or more of the total voting power of all shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the elections of directors, other (A) than any such acquisition by the Company, any

or 
 (ii) any consolidation of the Company with, or merger of the Company into, any other Person, any merger of another Person into the
Company, or any conveyance, sale, 
  

 88 

 transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another Person (other than (a) any such
transaction (x) which does not result in any reclassification, conversion, exchange or cancellation of outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company and (y) pursuant to which the holders of the Common Stock immediately prior to such transaction
have the entitlement to exercise, directly or indirectly, 50% or more of the total voting power of all shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the continuing or surviving corporation immediately after such
transaction or (b) any merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of Incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification, conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of common stock of
the surviving entity; provided, however, that a Change in Control shall not be deemed to have occurred if (I) the Closing Sales Price Per Share of the Class A Common Stock for any five Trading Days within the period of 10 consecutive Trading
Days ending immediately after the later of the Change in Control or the public announcement of the Change in Control (in the case of a Change in Control under clause (i) above) or the period of 10 consecutive Trading Days ending immediately before
the Change in Control (in the case of a Change in Control under clause (ii) above) shall equal or exceed 105% of the Conversion Price of the Notes in effect on each such Trading Day or (II) all of the consideration (excluding cash payments for
fractional shares and cash payments made pursuant to dissenters’ appraisal rights) in a merger or consolidation otherwise constituting a Change of Control under clause (i) and/or clause (ii) above consists of shares of common stock traded on a
national securities exchange or quoted on the Nasdaq National Market (or will be so traded or quoted immediately following such merger or consolidation) and as a result of such merger or consolidation the Notes become convertible into the Principal
Return and shares of such common stock, if any, in each case calculated in accordance with Section 11.11 assuming such common stock is the Reference Property. For purposes of this Section 13.4, “Beneficial Owner” shall be determined in
accordance with Rule 13(d)(3) promulgated by the Commission under the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of this Indenture. 
 (3) the

purposes of Section 13.4(2)(i), the term “person” shall include any syndicate or group which would be deemed to be a “person” under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, as in effect on the date of the original execution of this
Indenture. 
 SECTION 13.5 Consolidation, Merger, Etc. 
 In the case of any consolidation, conveyance, sale, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to which Section 11.11 applies, in which the Common Stock of the Company is changed or
exchanged as a result into the right to receive shares of stock and other securities or property or assets (including cash) which includes shares of Common Stock of the Company or common stock of another Person that are, or upon issuance will be,
traded on a United States national securities exchange or approved for trading on an established automated over-the-counter trading market in the United States and such shares constitute at the time such change or exchange becomes effective in
excess of 50% of the 
  

 89 

 aggregate fair market value of such shares of stock and other securities, property and assets (including cash) (as
determined by the Company, which determination shall be conclusive and binding), then the Person formed by such consolidation or resulting from such merger or combination or which acquires the properties or assets (including cash) of the Company, as
the case may be, shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture (which shall comply with the Trust Indenture Act as in force at the date of execution of such supplemental indenture) modifying the provisions of this Indenture
relating to the right of Holders to cause the Company to repurchase the Notes following a Change in Control, including without limitation the applicable provisions of this Article XIII and the definitions of the Common Stock and Change in Control,
as appropriate, and such other related definitions set forth herein as determined in good faith by the Company (which determination shall be conclusive and binding), to make such provisions apply in the event of a subsequent Change of Control to the
common stock and the issuer thereof if different from the Company and Common Stock of the Company (in lieu of the Company and the Common Stock of the Company).

 (2) at such other times as the Trustee may reasonably request in
writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; provided, however, that no such list need be furnished so
long as the Trustee is acting as Note Registrar. 
 SECTION 14.2 Preservation of Information. 
 (1) The Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses of Holders contained in the most recent list
furnished to the Trustee as provided in Section 14.1 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity as Note Registrar. The Trustee may destroy any list, if any, furnished to it as provided in Section 14.1 upon receipt

 90 

 (3) Every Holder of Notes, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee
that neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and addresses of Holders made pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act.

 An
incorporator or any past, present or future director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or any subsidiary shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim

 93Descrition of Executive Officer Annual Incentive Bonus Program

 Exhibit 10.10 
 PSS World Medical, Inc. 
 Description of Executive Officer Annual Incentive Bonus Program

 The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved an annual incentive bonus program (the “Program”) for its executive officers
for fiscal year 2007. Under the Program, executive officers may earn cash bonus awards based on the Company’s achievement of earnings per share goals and, in some cases, the achievement of operating segment profit and the participant’s
achievement of designated critical tasks. The target bonus amounts are expressed as a percentage of base salary (80% for the chief executive officer and a range of 35%-55% for the other executive officers), and actual bonus amounts may range from 0%
to 200% of the target amounts, as determined by the Compensation Committee based on actual performance relative to specified Company goals.
