(ii)                                   Company’s Failure to Timely Convert .  If the Company shall fail to issue a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC, as applicable, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon conversion of any Conversion Amount on or prior to the date which is three (3) Trading Days after the Conversion Date (a “ Conversion Failure ”), then the Holder, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Conversion Notice with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Conversion Notice.  In addition to the foregoing, if within three (3) Trading Days after the Company’s receipt of the facsimile copy of a Conversion Notice the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such holder’s conversion of any Conversion Amount, and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company (a “ Buy-In ”) or on any date of the Company’s obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock as contemplated pursuant to clause (B) below, then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (A) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price” ), at which point the Company’s obligation to issue and deliver such certificate or to credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such Holder’s conversion of any Conversion Amount shall terminate, or (B) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (1) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (2) the Closing Bid Price on the Conversion Date.

 

(iii)                                Registration; Book-Entry .  The Company shall maintain a register (the “ Register ”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the holders of each Note and the principal amount of the Notes held by such holders (the “ Registered Notes ”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.  The Company and the holders of the Notes shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of Principal and Interest hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  A Registered Note may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register.  Upon its receipt of a request to assign or sell all or part of any Registered Note by a Holder, the Company shall record the information contained therein in the Register and issue one or more new Registered Notes in the same aggregate principal amount as the principal amount of the surrendered Registered Note to the designated assignee or transferee pursuant to Section 18.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion or redemption of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted or redeemed or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a

Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note.  The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal, Interest and Late Charges, if any, converted and redeemed and the dates of such conversions and redemptions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion or redemption.

 

(iv)                               Pro Rata Conversion; Disputes .  In the event that the Company receives a Conversion Notice from more than one holder of Notes for the same Conversion Date and the Company can convert some, but not all, of such portions of the Notes submitted for conversion, the Company, subject to Section 3(d), shall convert from each holder of Notes electing to have Notes converted on such date a pro rata amount of such holder’s portion of its Notes submitted for conversion based on the principal amount of Notes submitted for conversion on such date by such holder relative to the aggregate principal amount of all Notes submitted for conversion on such date.  In the event of a dispute as to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable to the Holder in connection with a conversion of this Note, the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock not in dispute and resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 23.

 

(v)                                  The Holder, as such, is not entitled to any rights of a holder of Common Stock until the Holder has converted this Note into Common Stock, and only to the extent this Note is deemed to have been converted into Common Stock pursuant to this Section 3.

 

(vi)                               This Note shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date, and at such time the rights of the Holder of this Note as the Holder hereof shall cease (unless the Company defaults on its obligations in connection with any such conversion) with respect to the portion of this Note converted on such Conversion Date, and the Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion shall be deemed to be a stockholder of record on the Conversion Date.

 

(d)                                  Limitations on Conversions .

 

(i)                                      Beneficial Ownership .  The Company shall not effect any conversion of this Note, and the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(a), to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion (including any Make-Whole Premium), the Holder (together with the Holder’s affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% (the “ Maximum Percentage ”) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.  For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note with respect to which the determination of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (A) conversion of the remaining, nonconverted portion of this Note beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates and (B) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any Other Notes) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the

 

5



 

limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its affiliates.  Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 3(d)(i), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ 1934 Act ”).  For purposes of this Section 3(d)(i), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (x) the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K or other public filing with the SEC, as the case may be, (y) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (z) any other notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.  For any reason at any time, upon the written or oral request of the Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Business Days confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.  In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Note, by the Holder or its affiliates since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported.  By written notice to the Company, the Holder may increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% specified in such notice; provided that (i) any such increase will not be effective until the sixty-first (61 st ) day after such notice is delivered to the Company, and (ii) any such increase or decrease will apply only to the Holder and not to any other holder of Notes.  The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 3(d)(i) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended beneficial ownership limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation.

 

(ii)                                   Principal Market Regulation .  The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note (including Make-Whole Premium Shares, if any) if the issuance of such shares of Common Stock would exceed the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon conversion of the Notes without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of any applicable Eligible Market (the “ Exchange Cap ”), except that such limitation shall not apply in the event that the Company (A) obtains the approval of its stockholders as required by the applicable rules of such Eligible Market for issuances of Common Stock in excess of such amount or (B) obtains a written opinion from outside counsel to the Company that such approval is not required, which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders.  Until such approval or written opinion is obtained, no purchaser of the Notes pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (each, a “ Purchaser ” and collectively the “ Purchasers ”) shall be issued in the aggregate, upon conversion or otherwise of Notes, shares of Common Stock in an amount greater than the product of the Exchange Cap multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the principal amount of Notes issued to any Purchaser pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the aggregate principal amount of all Notes issued to all of the Purchasers pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement on the Closing Date (with respect to each Purchaser, the “ Exchange Cap Allocation ”).  In the event that any Purchaser shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such Purchaser’s Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such Purchaser’s Exchange Cap Allocation, and the restrictions of the prior sentence shall apply to such transferee with respect to the portion of the Exchange Cap Allocation allocated to such transferee.  In the

 

6



 

event that any holder of Notes shall convert all of such holder’s Notes into a number of shares of Common Stock which, in the aggregate, is less than such holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation, then the difference between such holder’s Exchange Cap Allocation and the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued to such holder shall be allocated to the respective Exchange Cap Allocations of the remaining holders of Notes on a pro rata basis in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then held by each such holder.

 

(e)                                   Mandatory Conversion .

 

(i)                                      General .  If at any time from and after the two (2) year anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “ Mandatory Conversion Eligibility Date ”), (A) the arithmetic average of the Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock for any twenty (20) Trading Days in any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period occurring following the Mandatory Conversion Eligibility Date (the “ Mandatory Conversion Measuring Period ”) exceeds 175% of the then applicable Conversion Price and (B) there is no Equity Conditions Failure on each day during the period commencing on the Mandatory Conversion Notice Date and ending on the Mandatory Conversion Date (each, as defined below), the Company shall have the right to require the Holder to convert all or any portion of the Conversion Amount then remaining under this Note, in each case as designated in the Mandatory Conversion Notice (as defined below) into fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section 3(c) hereof at the Conversion Rate as of the Mandatory Conversion Date (a “ Mandatory Conversion ”).  The Company may exercise its right to require conversion under this Section 3(e) by delivering within not more than three (3) Trading Days following the end of such Mandatory Conversion Measuring Period a written notice thereof by facsimile and overnight courier to all, but not less than all, of the holders of Notes and the Transfer Agent (the “Mandatory Conversion Notice” and the date all of the holders received such notice by facsimile is referred to as the “ Mandatory Conversion Notice Date ”).  The Mandatory Conversion Notice shall be irrevocable.  The Mandatory Conversion Notice shall (x) state (I) the Trading Day selected for the Mandatory Conversion, which Trading Day shall be no sooner than ten (10) Trading Days nor later than sixty (60) Trading Days following the Mandatory Conversion Notice Date (the “ Mandatory Conversion Date ”), (II) the aggregate Conversion Amount of the Notes subject to Mandatory Conversion from the Holder and all of the holders of the Notes pursuant to this Section 3(e) (and analogous provisions under the Other Notes), (III) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Holder on the Mandatory Conversion Date and (y) certify that there has been no Equity Conditions Failure.

 

(ii)                                   Pro Rata Conversion Requirement .  If the Company elects to cause a conversion of any Conversion Amount of this Note pursuant to Section 3(e)(i), then it must simultaneously take the same action in the same proportion with respect to the Other Notes.  If the Company elects a Mandatory Conversion of this Note pursuant to Section 3(e)(i) (or similar provisions under the Other Notes) with respect to less than all of the Conversion Amounts of the Notes then outstanding, then the Company shall require conversion of a Conversion Amount from each of the holders of the Notes equal to the product of (1) the aggregate Conversion Amount of Notes which the Company has elected to cause to be converted pursuant to Section 3(e)(i), multiplied by (2) the fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of the Notes purchased by such holder of outstanding Notes and the denominator of which is the sum of the aggregate Original Principal Amount of

 

7



 

the Notes purchased by all holders holding outstanding Notes (such fraction with respect to each holder is referred to as its “ Conversion Allocation Percentage ,” and such amount with respect to each holder is referred to as its “ Pro Rata Conversion Amount ”); provided, however, that in the event that any holder’s Pro Rata Conversion Amount exceeds the outstanding Principal amount of such holder’s Note, then such excess Pro Rata Conversion Amount shall be allocated amongst the remaining holders of Notes in accordance with the foregoing formula.  In the event that the initial holder of any Notes shall sell or otherwise transfer any of such holder’s Notes, the transferee shall be allocated a pro rata portion of such holder’s Conversion Allocation Percentage and the Pro Rata Conversion Amount.

 

(f)                                     Private Company Change of Control .  If at any time the Holder converts this Note after a Change of Control, unless (i) at least 90% of the consideration, excluding cash payments for fractional shares, in such Change of Control consists of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity that are listed on, or immediately after the transaction or event will be listed on, an Eligible Exchange and as a result of such transaction or transactions the Notes become convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such capital stock of the Successor Entity and the Successor Entity has assumed the obligations under this Note pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof or (ii) the Company continues to be the Successor Entity and the Common Stock continues to be listed on an Eligible Exchange, then the Company shall pay to the Holder in cash, in lieu of Conversion Shares, in an amount equal to the product of (x) the applicable number of Conversion Shares and (y) the consideration that the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Change of Control received for each share of Common Stock.

 

(4)                                   RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT .

 

(a)                                   Event of Default .  Each of the following events shall constitute an “ Event of Default ”:

 

(i)                                      the failure of the applicable Registration Statement required to be filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement to be declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date that is sixty (60) days after the applicable Effectiveness Deadline (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), or, while the applicable Registration Statement is required to be maintained effective pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement lapses for any reason (including, without limitation, the issuance of a stop order) or is unavailable to any holder of the Notes for sale of all of such holder’s Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, and such lapse or unavailability continues for a period of seven (7) consecutive days or for more than an aggregate of twenty-five (25) days in any 365-day period (other than days during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement));

(xi)                                 if any of the Transaction Documents shall be cancelled, terminated, revoked or rescinded, in each case otherwise than in accordance with the terms thereof or with the express prior written agreement, consent or approval of the holders of the Notes, or any action at law, suit or in equity or other legal proceeding to cancel, revoke or rescind any of the Transaction Documents or contest the Collateral Agent’s security interests and liens in any portion of the Collateral or the priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interests and liens in any portion of the Collateral contemplated by the Security Documents, shall be commenced by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries party thereto, or any court or any other governmental or regulatory authority or agency of competent jurisdiction shall make a determination that, or issue a judgment, order, decree or ruling to the effect that, any one or more of the Transaction Documents is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with the terms thereof;

(xv)                             any provision of any Security Document (as determined by the Collateral Agent) shall at any time for any reason (other than pursuant to the express terms thereof) cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against the Company or any Subsidiary intended to be a party thereto, or the validity or enforceability thereof shall be contested by any party thereto, or a proceeding shall be commenced by the Company or any Subsidiary or any governmental authority having jurisdiction over any of them, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or the Company or any Subsidiary shall deny in writing that it has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Security Document;

(xvii)                       any bank at which any Collateral Account is maintained shall fail to comply with any material term contained in the Collateral Account Agreement;

 

(xviii)                    any damage to, or loss, theft or destruction of, any Collateral, whether or not insured, if any such damage, or loss, theft or destruction could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement); or

 

(xix)                            any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Notes) occurs with respect to any Other Notes.

 

(b)                                  Redemption Right .  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day after the Company is aware of (or should have been aware of) such occurrence, deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier (an “ Event of Default Notice ”) to the Holder.  At any time after the earlier of the Holder’s receipt of an Event of Default Notice and the Holder becoming aware of an Event of Default, the Holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (the “ Event of Default Redemption Notice ”) to the Company, which Event of Default Redemption Notice shall indicate the portion of this Note the Holder is electing to redeem (the “ Event of Default Redemption ”).  Each portion of this Note subject to redemption by the Company pursuant to this Section 4(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “ Event of Default Redemption Price ”) equal to the greater of (i) the product of (A) the Conversion Amount to be redeemed and (B) the Redemption Premium and (ii) the product of (A) the Conversion Rate with respect to such Conversion Amount in effect at such time as the Holder delivers an Event of Default Redemption Notice and (B) the product of (1) the Redemption Premium and (2) the greatest Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock during the

 

11



 

period beginning on the date immediately preceding such Event of Default and ending on the date the Holder delivers the Event of Default Redemption Notice.  Redemptions required by this Section 4(b) shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.  To the extent redemptions required by this Section 4(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments.  The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 4(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder.  Accordingly, any redemption premium due under this Section 4(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

 

(5)                                   RIGHTS UPON FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION AND CHANGE OF CONTROL .

 

(a)                                   Assumption .  The Company shall not enter into or be party to a Fundamental Transaction unless the Successor Entity assumes in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Note and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a) pursuant to written agreements, including agreements to deliver to each holder of Notes in exchange for such Notes a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to the Notes, including, without limitation, having a principal amount and interest rate equal to the principal amounts then outstanding and the interest rates of the Notes held by such holder, having similar conversion rights and having similar ranking to the Notes.  Upon the occurrence of any Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Note referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Note with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.  Upon consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the Holder confirmation that there shall be issued upon conversion of this Note at any time after the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction, in lieu of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock (or other securities, cash, assets or other property) issuable upon the conversion of the Notes prior to such Fundamental Transaction, such shares of the common stock (or their equivalent) of the Successor Entity (including its Parent Entity), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of this Note.  The provisions of this Section shall apply similarly and equally to successive Fundamental Transactions and shall be applied without regard to any limitations on the conversion of this Note.

 

(b)                                  Redemption Right .  No sooner than fifteen (15) Trading Days nor later than ten (10) Trading Days prior to the consummation of a Change of Control, but not prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control, the Company shall deliver written notice thereof via facsimile and overnight courier to the Holder (a “ Change of Control Notice ”).  At any time during the period beginning after the Holder’s receipt of a Change of Control Notice and ending twenty (20) Trading Days after the date of the consummation of such Change of Control (the “ Change of Control Conversion/Redemption Period ”), the Holder may require

 

12



 

the Company to redeem all or any portion of this Note by delivering written notice thereof (“ Change of Control Redemption Notice ”) to the Company, which Change of Control Redemption Notice shall indicate the Conversion Amount the Holder is electing to require the Company to redeem.  The portion of this Note subject to redemption pursuant to this Section 5(b) shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price (the “ Change of Control Redemption Price ”) equal to 100% of the Conversion Amount being redeemed.  Redemptions required by this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 9 and shall have priority to payments to stockholders in connection with a Change of Control.  To the extent redemptions required by this Section 5(b) are deemed or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be prepayments of the Note by the Company, such redemptions shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5, but subject to Section 3(d), until the Change of Control Redemption Price (together with any interest thereon) is paid in full, the Conversion Amount submitted for redemption under this Section 5(c) (together with any interest thereon) may be converted, in whole or in part, by the Holder into Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.  The parties hereto agree that in the event of the Company’s redemption of any portion of the Note under this Section 5(b), the Holder’s damages would be uncertain and difficult to estimate because of the parties’ inability to predict future interest rates and the uncertainty of the availability of a suitable substitute investment opportunity for the Holder.  Accordingly, any Change of Control redemption premium due under this Section 5(b) is intended by the parties to be, and shall be deemed, a reasonable estimate of the Holder’s actual loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty.

 

(c)                                   Make-Whole Premium .  Immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control, the Company shall pay the applicable Make-Whole Premium to the holders of the Notes who effect a conversion at any time during the Change of Control Conversion/Redemption Period unless (i) at least 90% of the consideration, excluding cash payments for fractional shares, in such Change of Control consists of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity that are listed on, or immediately after the transaction or event will be listed on, an Eligible Exchange and as a result of such transaction or transactions the Notes become convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such capital stock of the Successor Entity and the Successor Entity has assumed the obligations under this Note pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof or (ii) the Company continues to be the Successor Entity and the Common Stock continues to be listed on an Eligible Exchange.  For any Conversion Notice delivered during the Change of Control Conversion/Redemption Period, (i) the Make-Whole Premium (in Make-Whole Premium Shares and/or cash, as applicable) shall be paid to the Holder immediately prior to the Effective Date if such Conversion Notice is delivered prior to such Effective Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Premium shall be paid to the Holder in cash on the third (3 rd ) Trading Day following the date of such Conversion Notice if the Conversion Notice is delivered on or after such Effective Date (each a “ Change of Control Settlement Date ”).

 

(i)                                      (A)  The Make-Whole Premium shall equal an additional number of shares of Common Stock calculated in accordance with this Section 5(c) (the “ Make-Whole Premium Shares ”, which Make-Whole Premium Shares for purposes of the Transaction Documents, shall be considered Conversion Shares and shall be included within the definition of “Conversion Shares”).  The Make-Whole Premium will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any cash, securities or other assets otherwise due to the Holder upon conversion as described in this Note.

 
13


 
(B)                                 The “ Make-Whole Premium ” shall be equal to the Conversion Amount of the Notes to be converted divided by $1,000 and multiplied by the applicable number of shares of Common Stock determined by reference to the table below (the “ Make-Whole Premium Table ”) and is based on the Effective Date and the Stock Price.

(C)                                 The exact Stock Price and Effective Date may not be set forth on the Make-Whole Premium Table, in which case, if the Stock Price is between two Stock Prices on the Make-Whole Premium Table or the Effective Date is between two Effective Dates on the Make-Whole Premium Table, the Make-Whole Premium shall be determined by straight-line interpolation between Make-Whole Premium amounts set forth for the higher and lower Stock Prices and the two Effective Dates, as applicable, based on a 365-day year (or a 366-day year if the Effective Date occurs in a leap year).  The Stock Prices set forth in the column headers are subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5(c)(iii).
 
(1)                             If the Stock Price is less than to $27.00 (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5(c)(iii), the “ Stock Price Threshold ”), the Make-Whole Premium shall be equal to zero shares of Common Stock.
 
(2)                             If the Stock Price is greater than $81.00 (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 5(c)(iii), the “ Stock Price Cap ”), the Make-Whole Premium shall be equal to zero shares of Common Stock.
 
(3)                             Stock Price ” means the price paid per share of Common Stock in the transaction constituting the Change of Control, determined as follows:  (i) if holders of Common Stock receive only cash in the transaction constituting the Change of Control, the Stock Price shall equal the cash amount paid per share of Common Stock; and (ii) in all other cases, the Stock Price shall equal the arithmetic average of the Closing Sale Price of a share of Common Stock over the five (5) Trading Day period ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Effective Date; and “ Effective Date ” means the date that a Change of Control becomes effective.
 

(ii)                                   The Company shall pay the Make-Whole Premium solely in shares of Common Stock (other than cash paid in lieu of fractional shares) or in the same form of consideration into which all or substantially all of the shares of Common Stock have been converted or exchanged in connection with the Change of Control.  If holders of the Common Stock receive or have the right to receive more than one form of consideration in connection with such Change of Control, then, for purposes of the foregoing, the forms of consideration in which the Make-Whole Premium shall be paid shall be in proportion to the different forms of consideration paid to holders of Common Stock in connection with such Change of Control.

 

(iii)                                Whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company pursuant to Section 7, the Stock Price Threshold and the Stock Price Cap shall be adjusted and each of the Stock Prices set forth in the Make-Whole Premium Table shall be adjusted.  The adjusted Stock Price Threshold, Stock Price Cap and Stock Prices set forth in the Make-Whole Premium Table shall equal the Stock Price Threshold, the Stock Price Cap and such Stock Prices, as the case may be, immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Conversion Price as so adjusted and the denominator of which is the Conversion Price immediately prior to the adjustment giving rise to such adjustment.  Each of the share amounts set forth in the body of the Make-Whole Premium Table shall also be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time.

 

16



 

(iv)                               Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Change of Control Notice is received prior to the Effective Date and the Make-Whole Premium Shares required to be delivered hereunder would result in either the Holder beneficially owning (A) in excess of such Holder’s FIRPTA Cap immediately after giving effect to such Make-Whole Premium Shares on an as converted basis (without regard for any limitations of conversion set forth in the Notes) or (B) the Exchange Cap Allocation , then in lieu of the Make-Whole Premium Shares required under this Section 5, the number of Make-Whole Premium Conversion Shares will be reduced to a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the difference between the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with the Change of Control and the Holder’s FIRPTA Cap or the Exchange Cap Allocation, as applicable, and the Company shall pay the Holder no later than five (5) Business Days following the Conversion Date an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the Closing Bid Price of the Common Stock on such Conversion Date and (y) the number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the Holder’s FIRPTA Cap or Exchange Cap Allocation, as applicable, that would have otherwise been issuable without regard to such limitation and any other limitations on conversion set forth in such Note.

 

(v)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Change of Control Notice is received on or after the Effective Date, then in lieu of the Make-Whole Premium Shares required under this Section 5, the Company shall pay the Holder no later than three (3) Business Days following the Conversion Date an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the applicable number of Make-Whole Premium Shares and (y) the consideration that the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Change of Control received for each share of Common Stock.

 

(6)                                   RIGHTS UPON ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE RIGHTS AND OTHER CORPORATE EVENTS .

 

(a)                                   Purchase Rights .  If at any time the Company grants, issues or sells any Options, Convertible Securities or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of Common Stock (the “ Purchase Rights ”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete conversion of this Note (without taking into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

(b)                                  Other Corporate Events .  In addition to and not in substitution for any other rights hereunder, prior to the consummation of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive securities or other assets with respect to or in exchange for shares of Common Stock (a “ Corporate Event ”), the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Holder will thereafter have the right to receive upon a conversion of this Note, at the Holder’s option, (i) in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets to which the Holder would have been entitled with respect to such shares of Common Stock had such shares of Common Stock been held by the Holder upon the consummation of such Corporate Event (without taking

 

17



 

into account any limitations or restrictions on the convertibility of this Note) or (ii) in lieu of the shares of Common Stock otherwise receivable upon such conversion, such securities or other assets received by the holders of shares of Common Stock in connection with the consummation of such Corporate Event in such amounts as the Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Note in
