outstanding Debentures on or before the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. On the 181st day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the reporting obligations is not cured or waived prior to such 181st day), the Debentures will be subject to acceleration pursuant to this Article Five. Any Additional Interest in respect of the Debentures shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Debentures, beginning on the first Interest Payment Date following the date on which Additional Interest begins to accrue on the Debentures. This paragraph shall not affect the rights of Holders of Debentures in the event of the occurrence of any other Event of Default, including their right to seek acceleration or specific performance. In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest in accordance with this paragraph, the Debentures shall be subject to acceleration as otherwise provided for in this Article Five.

To elect to pay Additional Interest pursuant to this paragraph, the Company must (i) notify all Holders of Debentures and the Trustee and Paying Agent of such election and (ii) pay Additional Interest on each Interest Payment Date as of which any Additional Interest is accrued and unpaid, to the Persons in whose names the Debentures are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date.”

ARTICLE IV

CONVERSION OF DEBENTURES

Section 4.01. Right to Convert .

(a) Subject to and upon compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, the Holder of any Debenture not previously redeemed or repurchased shall have the right, at such Holder’s option, to convert the principal amount of the Debenture, or any portion of such principal amount which is a multiple of $1,000, into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock (as such shares shall then be constituted), at the Conversion Rate in effect at such time, at any time prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Final Maturity Date by compliance with Section 4.02 hereof.

(b) A Debenture in respect of which a Holder is electing to exercise its option to require repurchase upon a Designated Event pursuant to Section 5.05(a) hereof or repurchase pursuant to Section 5.06 hereof may be converted only if such Holder withdraws its election in accordance with Section 5.05(b) or Section 5.08 hereof, respectively.

Section 4.02. Conversion Procedures . To convert a Debenture, a Holder must (a) complete and manually sign the Conversion Notice or a facsimile of the Conversion Notice (a “ Conversion Notice ”) in the form set forth on the reverse of the Debenture and deliver such notice, which shall be irrevocable, to the Conversion Agent, (b) surrender the Debenture to the Conversion Agent, (c) furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents if required by the Security Registrar or the Conversion Agent, (d) pay any transfer or similar tax, if required, and (e) if required, pay funds equal to the interest payable on the next Interest Payment Date. The date on which the Holder satisfies all of the foregoing requirements is the “ Conversion Date .”

In the case of a Global Debenture, Conversion Notices may be delivered and such Debentures may be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary as in effect from time to time. The Person in whose name a Debenture that is tendered for conversion is registered shall be deemed to be a shareholder of record at the close of business on the applicable Conversion Date.

No payment or adjustment shall be made for dividends on, or other distributions with respect to, any Common Stock except as provided in this Article IV. On conversion of a Debenture, except for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, in which case the Holder on such Regular Record Date shall receive the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date, that portion of accrued and unpaid interest on the converted Debenture attributable to the period from the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if no Interest Payment Date has occurred, from the date of original issuance of the Debentures) through the Conversion Date shall not be cancelled, extinguished or forfeited, but rather shall be deemed to be paid in full to the Holder thereof through delivery of shares of Common Stock (together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of fractional shares) in exchange, and in satisfaction of the Company’s obligation to pay, for the Debenture being converted pursuant to the provisions hereof.

 

 

14

 


 


If a Holder converts more than one Debenture at the same time, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion shall be based on the aggregate principal amount of Debentures converted.

Upon surrender of a Debenture that is converted in part, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder, a new Debenture equal in principal amount to the principal amount of the unconverted portion of the Debenture surrendered.

Debentures or portions thereof surrendered for conversion during the period from the close of business on any Regular Record Date immediately preceding any Interest Payment Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date shall be accompanied by payment to the Company or its order, in immediately available funds or other funds acceptable to the Company, of an amount equal to the interest payable on such Interest Payment Date with respect to the principal amount of Debentures or portions thereof being surrendered for conversion; provided that no such payment need be made (1) if the Company has specified a Redemption Date that occurs during the period from the close of business on a Regular Record Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates, (2) in connection with a conversion following the Regular Record Date preceding the Final Maturity Date, (3) if the Company has specified a Designated Event Repurchase Date during the period from the close of business on a Regular Record Date to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date to which such Regular Record Date relates or (4) if any overdue interest exists on the Conversion Date with respect to the Debentures converted, but only to the extent of such overdue interest.

The Company shall deliver all consideration due upon conversion of any Debenture on the third Business Day following the Conversion Date applicable to such Debenture; provided that if any calculation required in order to determine the number of deliverable shares of Common Stock will not be available to the Company on the Conversion Date, such delivery shall be made on the third Business Day after which the relevant data becomes available to the Company.

Section 4.03. Cash Payments in Lieu of Fractional Shares . No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip certificates representing fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of Debentures. If more than one Debenture shall be surrendered for conversion at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares that shall be issuable upon conversion shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (or specified portions thereof to the extent permitted hereby) so surrendered. If any fractional share of Common Stock would be issuable upon the conversion of any Debenture or Debentures, the Company shall make an adjustment and payment therefor in cash at the current market price thereof to the Holder of Debentures. For purposes of this Section 4.03, the “ current market price ” of a share of Common Stock shall be the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the last Trading Day immediately preceding the day on which the Debentures (or specified portions thereof) are deemed to have been converted.

 

 

15

 


 


Section 4.04. Conversion Rate . Each $1,000 principal amount of the Debentures shall be initially convertible into 220.6288 shares of Common Stock (herein called the “Conversion Rate”), subject to adjustment as provided in this Article IV.

Section 4.05. Conversion Rate Adjustment . The Conversion Rate shall be adjusted from time to time by the Company as follows:

(a) If the Company issues Common Stock as a dividend or distribution on Common Stock to all holders of Common Stock, or if the Company effects a share split or share combination, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x OS1/OS0

where

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate in effect taking such event into account;

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event; and

OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.05(a) shall become effective on the date that is immediately after (x) the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or other distribution or (y) the date on which such split or combination becomes effective, as applicable. If any dividend or distribution that is the subject of this Section 4.05(a) is declared but not so paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, as of the date that is the earlier of the public announcement of non-payment or the date the dividend was to be paid, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(b) If the Company issues to all holders of Common Stock any rights, warrants, options or other securities entitling them for a period of not more than 45 days after the date of issuance thereof to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock, or if the Company issues to all holders of Common Stock securities convertible into Common Stock for a period of not more than 45 days after the date of issuance thereof, in either case at an exercise price per share of Common Stock or a conversion price per share of Common Stock less than the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Business Day immediately preceding the time of announcement of such issuance, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x (OS0+X)/(OS0+Y)

 

 

16

 


 


where

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate taking such event into account;

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event;

X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities; and

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient of (A) the aggregate price payable to exercise such rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities and (B) the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Days prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the date of announcement for the issuance of such rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities.

For purposes of this Section 4.05(b), in determining whether any rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities entitle the holders to subscribe for or purchase, or exercise a conversion right for, Common Stock at less than the applicable Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock, and in determining the aggregate exercise or Conversion Price payable for such Common Stock, there shall be taken into account any consideration received by the Company for such rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities and any amount payable on exercise or conversion thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4.05(b) shall become effective on the date that is immediately after the date fixed for the determination of shareholders entitled to receive such rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities. If any right, warrant, option, other security or convertible security that is the subject of this Section 4.05(b) is not exercised or converted prior to the expiration of the exercisability or convertibility thereof, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, as of such expiration date, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such right, warrant, option, other security or convertible security had not been so issued.

(c) (i) If the Company distributes capital stock, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property of the Company to all holders of Common Stock, excluding:

(A) dividends, distributions, rights, warrants, options, other securities or convertible securities referred to in Section 4.05(a) or (b) above,

(B) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash, and

(C) Spin-Offs,

 

 

17

 


 


then the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x SP0/(SP0-FMV)

where

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate taking such event into account;

SP0 = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-dividend Date for such distribution; and

FMV = the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company) of the capital stock, evidences of indebtedness, assets or property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Common Stock on the Ex-dividend Date for such distribution.

An adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 4.05(c)(i) shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective on the Record Date for such distribution.

(ii) If the Company distributes to all holders of Common Stock capital stock of any class or series, or similar equity interest, of or relating to a subsidiary or other business unit of the Company (a “ Spin-Off ”), the Conversion Rate in effect immediately before the close of business on the date fixed for determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such distribution shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x (FMV0+MP0)/MP0

where

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate taking such event into account;

FMV0 = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the capital stock or similar equity interest distributed to holders of Common Stock applicable to one share of Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Days after the effective date of the Spin-Off; and

MP0 = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the first 10 consecutive Trading Days after the effective date of the Spin-Off.

 

 

18

 


 


An adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 4.05(c)(ii) shall be made successively whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective on the effective date of the Spin-Off.

If any dividend or distribution that is the subject of this Section 4.05(c) is declared but not paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(d) If the Company pays or makes any dividend or distribution consisting exclusively of cash to all holders of Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x (SP0)/(SP0-C)

where

CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate taking such event into account;

SP0 = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of the Common Stock over the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding the Ex-dividend Date for such distribution;

C = the amount in cash per share of Common Stock that the Company distributes to holders of Common Stock.

An adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 4.05(d) shall become effective on the Ex-dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If any dividend or distribution that is the subject of this Section 4.05(d) is declared but not so paid or made, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, as of the date that is the earlier of the public announcement of non-payment or the date the dividend was to be paid, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(e) If the Company or any of its subsidiaries makes a payment in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for Common Stock to the extent that the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock exceeds the Closing Sale Price of the Common Stock on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (the “Expiration Time”), the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR1 = CR0 x (AC + (SP1 x OS1))/(SP1 x OS0)

where

 

 

19

 


 


CR0 = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the adjustment relating to such event;

CR1 = the new Conversion Rate taking such event into account;

AC = the aggregate value of all cash and any other consideration (as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company) paid or payable for Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS0 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires;

OS1 = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase or exchange of shares pursuant to such tender or exchange offer); and

SP1 = the average of the Closing Sale Prices of Common Stock for the 10 consecutive Trading Days commencing on the Trading Day next succeeding the date such tender or exchange offer expires.

If the application of the foregoing formula would result in a decrease in the Conversion Rate, no adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made.

Any adjustment to the Conversion Rate made pursuant to this Section 4.05(e) shall become effective upon the expiration of such tender or exchange offer. If the Company or one of its subsidiaries is obligated to purchase Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer but the Company or the relevant subsidiary is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase or all such purchases are rescinded, the new Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made.

(f) If the Company has in effect a rights plan while any Debentures remain outstanding, Holders shall receive, upon a conversion of Debentures, in addition to such shares of Common Stock, rights under the Company’s sh
